Shen Zhiyi rolled her eyes and continued listening to what Su Wuning had to say.
"There were a few girls inside, but I released them all." Su Wuning raised his head proudly as he said this. "I sent them all to a very safe place to hide, so that the Goddess won't be able to find them."
"where?"
Su Wuning continued to look up arrogantly, "I'm hiding in Wujin Mountain!"
6.
"When are you planning to go explore that basement with me again?" Su Wuning urged.
Last time he went, he was only focused on rescuing people, and he didn't quite understand the situation inside. He was thinking of going again.
"There's no time like the present, let's go today."
Su Wuning asked with a question mark, "Really? The receptionist is still there, but I don't know if the goddess and her lackey are still there."
"Of course it's fake."
"By the day after tomorrow, news of our return today should have reached the goddess's ears. Taking action now might backfire."
Su Wuning nodded. "Okay."
"By the way, I'm planning to deliver some food to those girls tomorrow, do you want to come with me?"
Shen Zhiyi shook her head. "No, three people would be too conspicuous. I'll stay in the hotel."
Su Wuning didn't insist and simply agreed.
After the three of them discussed for a while, Su Wuning left Shen Zhiyi's suite.
"Get some rest, goodnight." Shen Zhiyi yawned, feeling a little sleepy.
Nalan Zhao blinked. "Okay, goodnight, sister."
The next morning, just as dawn broke, Su Wuning left the hotel.
At a window upstairs, a woman looked in the direction Su Wuning had left, a cold smile playing on her lips. The show was about to begin.
When Su Wuning arrived at Wujin Mountain, he saw blood everywhere where the girls had been hiding, and several girls were lying on the ground, their fates unknown.
Su Wuning dropped what he was holding and ran over to check on the girl.
He reached out and checked her breathing.
He died.
All of these girls are dead.
"ah--"
"Help!"
A girl screamed from the side.
Su Wuning frowned and quickly ran towards the direction of the sound, where he saw a girl holding a knife, stabbing at other girls like a madwoman.
The girl with the knife was covered in blood, the knife itself was stained red, and she had a maniacal smile on her face.
"Brother Su! Help!" A girl saw Su Wuning not far away and ran towards him immediately.
Su Wuning shielded the remaining three behind him, his voice heavy, "What exactly happened?!"
"We don't know anything about it. She suddenly went crazy this morning. We don't know where she got the knife from, but she just came at us and tried to kill us!"
The girl hiding behind Su Wuning told him what had happened in a trembling voice.
"We didn't even notice at first, and Meimei and Xiaojiao were killed by her!"
"We didn't have any weapons, and we were afraid that if we went up to stop her we would be accidentally hurt, so we had to run away. We didn't expect her to stab Meimei and Xiaojiao twice more, and after confirming they were dead, she came after us!"
"Xiaoxin held off Hongyue so that we could escape and you could come to rescue us, but she was also stabbed to death by Hongyue."
The thought of the three people's tragic state made them tremble uncontrollably. They were just ordinary people; they had never seen such a bloody scene before.
They were terrified.
"Damn it! You all deserve to die! Once you're all dead, I'll be free! Hahahaha!"
Hongyue's voice came over.
Her face contorted with rage as she stared in Su Wuning's direction, pondering how to kill them all.
"You guys run, I'll hold her off," Su Wuning said to the people behind him. "Run downhill."
Su Wuning originally wanted the three of them to go to the hotel to find Shen Zhiyi, but when he thought that the hotel was the goddess's territory, he had no choice but to hold back.
The three nodded, glanced at Su Wuning with concern, gritted their teeth, and ran away.
Hongyue charged towards Su Wuning, her blood-stained knife thrusting towards him.
Su Wuning kicked Hongyue in the stomach, knocking her to the ground.
Hongyue chuckled and said, "Do you really think you're some kind of saint?"
"No! You're the biggest fool! You think bringing us out of here saved us? You just sent us into another abyss!"
Su Wuning was taken aback. "What do you mean?"
"Hahaha, the goddess has already poisoned us. Run? Where can we run to?"
Tears streamed down Hongyue's face. "The poison in my body flared up this morning. It was only a matter of time before the poison in their bodies flared up too. I might as well just send them to their deaths and let them be free sooner."
Su Wuning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned around to look in the direction the three girls had run.
Ignoring the red moon on the ground, he hurriedly chased after it.
They had only been chasing for a short while when they saw the three men lying on the ground. All three were bleeding from their seven orifices and were dead, their faces still bearing the marks of their dying struggles.
He stared at the three girls in disbelief.
I just can't understand why this happened. He clearly rescued them all.
Why?
Why force them to accept this fate?
Red Moon... Yes! Red Moon!
He turned to look for Hongyue, only to find that Hongyue had already followed him.
"See? You can't change anyone's fate." Red Moon's face was full of mockery. "We've been poisoned for a long time, but no one knows."
"By the time I found out, it was too late; you couldn't save anyone!"
As soon as she finished speaking, blood trickled from the corner of Hongyue's mouth.
"Red Moon!" Su Wuning rushed over and caught the falling Red Moon.
"I appreciate your desire to save me, but... you can't save anyone."
Hongyue smiled as she looked at him, her hand trembling as she reached out to touch Su Wuning's cheek, but the poison took effect too quickly, and before she could reach him, her hand fell heavily to the ground.
Su Wuning's eyes widened, tears welling up in them.
He questioned himself inwardly, why did it turn out like this? Why wasn't he more careful?
Is it really true that he can't save anyone?
...
Su Wuning took a long time to arrive, and Shen Zhiyi was getting a little impatient.
She knew Su Wuning had gone out a long time ago, but it was almost noon and he still hadn't returned.
Shen Zhiyi went to the window and looked out, but Su Wuning still hadn't appeared.
She had a bad feeling.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Just as Nalan Zhao was about to go and open the door, Shen Zhiyi stopped him and opened the door herself.
The receptionist stood at the door, a polite smile on her face. "Miss, my boss would like to invite you for a cup of tea."
"Oh? What if I don't?" Shen Zhiyi looked at the receptionist with a forced smile.
The receptionist's expression remained unchanged. "My boss said he just wanted to invite us for a cup of tea, nothing more. Of course, this gentleman can join us too."
The receptionist's gaze fell upon Nalan Zhao, who stood behind Shen Zhiyi.
