One night six months ago.
On a mountain in the suburbs of Zhongzhou City, three people are setting up a tent in a clearing in the woods.
The three people were Li Yuanji, Wang Cuicui, and Li Jing.
While setting up the tent, Li Yuanji secretly sized up Wang Cuicui and Li Jing's figures, feeling intensely itchy inside.
Tonight I'm going to do both of you.
I'll have to try every single position I know!
Li Yuanji thought to himself, his eyes filled with greed.
"How are we supposed to use just this one tent?" Wang Cuicui complained.
"Just squeeze in," Li Yuanji said with a smile.
The tent is finally set up; it's time for dinner.
It was only then that Li Yuanji realized he had forgotten to bring solid fuel.
Without any solid fuel, they had to collect some dry branches from the woods to use as fuel, otherwise they wouldn't have been able to heat the canned food.
So Li Yuanji said, "Let's go and gather some firewood in the woods."
"It's so dark, isn't it unsafe to go into the woods?"
Li Jing was timid, and her face turned pale when she heard Li Yuanji's words.
Li Yuanji patted his chest and said, "With me protecting you, what do you have to be afraid of?"
Wang Cuicui and Li Jing exchanged a glance before finally nodding and following Li Yuanji into the woods to gather firewood.
However, not long after entering the woods, Wang Cuicui suddenly let out a shrill scream.
Li Yuanji and Li Jing rushed over.
"There's a body! Look over there, there's a body!"
Wang Cuicui pointed ahead and shouted in a panic.
Li Yuanji and Li Jing looked in that direction and immediately saw a blood-soaked corpse under a huge tree that would take several people to encircle.
The corpse's chest was cut open, revealing its blood-soaked internal organs!
Li Yuanji took a closer look and discovered that the corpse's heart was missing!
"What...what's going on?"
Li Yuanji's face was deathly pale, even his lips had lost all color.
Wang Cuicui and Li Jing stood to one side, trembling with fear, not daring to approach at all.
Suddenly, Li Jing said, "There seems to be something in the bushes."
Li Yuanji strode over and picked up a small box from the bushes.
Upon opening the small box, three rings were revealed to Li Yuanji, Wang Cuicui, and Li Jing.
The three rings resemble a twisted snake, with a gemstone biting into its mouth.
However, the gemstones on the three rings are different colors: one red, one yellow, and one blue.
“What a strange ring,” Li Yuanji said.
"Perhaps it belongs to the deceased person," Wang Cuicui guessed.
Looking at the three strange rings, Li Yuanji suddenly felt an urge to wear them.
Wang Cuicui and Li Jing, as if bewitched, reached out their hands.
The moment the three of them put on the rings, the rings began to shrink and become smaller, tightly constricting their fingers.
Bright red blood flowed from their fingers, into the ring, and was absorbed by it.
The intense pain caused Li Yuanji, Wang Cuicui, and Li Jing to fall to the ground and roll around incessantly, all three letting out pitiful howls.
It's unclear how much time passed before Li Yuanji, Wang Cuicui, and Li Jing finally woke up from their coma.
“From that time on, the three of us possessed some truly amazing abilities.”
"As long as I don't take off the ring, I become incredibly strong and fast, and darkness is no longer an obstacle for me. I even feel like I've become Superman!"
"Wang Cuicui and Li Jing also possess special abilities."
“Wang Cuicui can control the movement of objects without touching them, while Li Jing can see very, very far away. Even with her eyes closed, she can see everything that is happening around her.”
Li Yuanji stood before Ye Feng, speaking tremblingly, not daring to hide anything.
"And then?" Night Wind asked again.
“I think this is a strange encounter. This strange ring must be some kind of supernatural object. We gained the ring’s approval and thus became superhumans with supernatural abilities,” Li Yuanji said.
After a pause, Li Yuanji said with a wry smile, "So from then on, the three of us formed a small group and often acted together, just like the superheroes in the movies, often helping those in need and teaching a lesson to the thugs on the street."
"But this didn't last long. As time went on, we discovered that we craved blood, and it had to be human blood!"
"But please believe me, we did not kill anyone. I bought human blood through special channels. The human blood that Wang Cuicui and Li Jing needed was also bought by me."
"Wang Cuicui and Li Jing then became my women and had physical relationships with me. However, at the company, the three of us pretended that nothing was wrong, so the employees in the company did not know about our relationship, let alone that we were superhumans."
“Just three days ago, a mysterious person suddenly appeared. He found us and said that the ring we found belonged to him, and that he belonged to a martial arts organization called the Hidden Serpent.”
“He gave us two choices: either return the ring to him, or the three of us join the Hidden Serpent.”
Night Breeze nodded and smiled, "You refused?"
"Um."
Li Yuanji responded and continued, "That organization called the Hidden Serpent sounds like something bad. Joining them might bring us danger, so I refused their request on the spot. However, I was greedy at the time and lied that I had lost the ring, so I didn't return it to them."
“I told him I was willing to give him 30 million as compensation.”
"The man gave a cold laugh and left. I thought that was the end of it, but I never expected..."
Night Wind already knew what happened next.
Wang Cuicui and Li Jing died at home, their internal organs were removed, and the Hidden Serpent Ring also disappeared.
The corpse that Li Yuanji, Wang Cuicui, and Li Jing found in the mountains was probably killed by the Hidden Serpent. But perhaps some accident happened, and the Hidden Serpent only killed the person and did not find and take away the three rings.
"The ring on your hand is a magical artifact, and a rather sinister one at that. Using it will not do you any good. Moreover, the warriors of the Hidden Serpent seem to have given you two choices, but in reality, there is only one: if you don't join them, all three of you will die."
"Because the ring has already recognized you as its masters, only by killing you can it be taken back. So if you don't join us, you will only face death."
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Li Yuanji's expression turned extremely ugly.
