Mo Wen paused for a moment, then said calmly, "How do you know she's difficult to kill?"
Linghu Lan glanced at him silently, but did not answer. Instead, she asked, "Did you kill Song Cheng?"
"No!"
"That's right!"
Mo Wen's gaze suddenly turned dangerous.
What do you know?
"There are many, what would you like to hear?"
Mo Wen: "..."
He slowly loosened his grip; when faced with such a frank person, he felt embarrassed to use torture to extract a confession.
"Just saying!"
Linghu Lan smiled.
"The World Treasure is indeed the key to unlocking the Mysterious Island. However, only two people will ultimately escape; the rest will become sacrifices. This island is a massive array, and our mutual slaughter here is merely accelerating its completion."
What evidence do you have?
"Evidence?" Linghu Lan's lips curled slightly. "The evidence is that the world's treasure only appeared after half of the population had died."
Looking at Linghu Lan's calm and composed gaze, Mo Wen was momentarily speechless.
The World's Treasure did indeed appear when half of the population died, which means that if the other half hadn't died, the World's Treasure would never have appeared.
"Someone is plotting against us!" Mo Wen said thoughtfully.
"Not necessarily!" Linghu Lan disagreed. "Perhaps we're all just sparring partners!"
Mo Wen followed Linghu Lan's gaze to Xu Yuan, who was swaying precariously in the crowd. Even though she was covered in blood, she still exuded a murderous and destructive aura.
That woman is a born killer!
Soon, Xu Yuan spat out a mouthful of blood.
The crowd erupted in cheers.
"This girl's done for, give it your all!"
"Brothers, let's go!"
Countless weapons were hurled at Xu Yuan, creating a dazzling display of light and shadow.
Sudden.
A scream erupted from the crowd.
Then a figure quickly darted out.
Linghu Lan's spiritual energy surged, and she quickly chased after the figure.
Mo Wen thought for a moment, then moved and followed.
The crowd dispersed to take a look.
"That little wench died... Holy crap, it was a man!"
"Damn it, where did that woman go?"
"My brother, you fucking killed my brother!"
"Dead men are nothing. If you don't want to die, shut up and go after that woman."
"..."
...
Song Cheng carried Xu Yuan and ran wildly.
Xu Yuan opened her eyes and saw Song Cheng. A warm feeling welled up in her heart, and tears gently streamed down her face.
He's here!
She caught her breath slightly and said, "Put me down, I'll escape myself!"
Song Cheng deliberately pinched her buttocks and laughed, "No need, I've gained an escape ability called [Golden Cicada Shedding its Shell], which allows me to exchange places with other living things."
Xu Yuan blushed, glared at him, and looked back.
Sure enough, she and Song Cheng soon appeared in another unfamiliar place.
The spot where they had been standing had turned into a rabbit. The rabbit looked around in confusion and then hopped away.
Xu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and curled up in his arms, looking down in relaxation.
Song Cheng smiled and asked, "Is my chest warm?"
“…” Xu Yuan ignored him, closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Song Cheng gave a wry smile and continued on his way, his mind filled with a myriad of thoughts.
When Mo Wen was chasing him, he barely escaped after several twists and turns.
Mo Wen was the person with the most abilities he had ever met, with a variety of outstanding skills.
If it weren't for the necklace around his neck forming a barrier that isolated his abilities, he might have already died at Mo Wen's hands.
