Although the tall player consoled himself this way, he knew the possibility was extremely slim.
After all, being audacious enough to utilize two big shots would naturally come at a cost, and they might end up in the same situation.
The advanced male player remained frozen in place, his fingernails piercing into his palms, and even blood oozing out and dripping onto the ground.
He knew.
He knew he couldn’t do anything.
He was merely an insignificant subordinate, not even inheriting a tenth of the original host’s power.
The advanced male player had never felt so weak.
But he didn’t regret awakening his consciousness; he was just unwilling, unwilling to be powerless.
Unwilling to watch the young man belong to someone else.
But he was too weak...
The next second, a voice, as if a demon’s whisper, suddenly sounded in the advanced male player’s mind, carrying a hint of temptation as if it could stir the darkest desires in one’s heart.
[Do you want to become stronger?]
[I can give you power.]
[As long as you sacrifice your body and blood to me, you will have the power to kill them all.]
[At that time, he... will be yours.]
***
On the rooftop, when Lu Rufeng and Su Zhen saw the familiar person, they were not surprised at all.
If it weren’t for the fact that Zhou Qing’s appearance as a beautiful blind man had prejudiced them, they might have recognized him at first glance.
Because this person had a fatal attraction to them, regardless of his appearance.
To them, he was like opium, impossible to resist. Even if they knew they were walking into the depths of hell, they were willing.
Su Zhen looked at Ruan Qing, raising his head slightly, with a somewhat haughty expression, showing a victorious smile. “It seems like you lost this time.”
“So, choosing your teammates must be done carefully.” Su Zhen confidently and calmly continued, “Instead of choosing useless trash, why not choose me?”
Su Zhen’s self-confidence and composure emanated a deep-seated strength, with a hint of irresistible dominance.
Rather than saying he was inquiring, it’s more like a statement.
He was directly informing Ruan Qing, carrying a sense of inevitability.
“Is that so?” Ruan Qing neither confirmed nor denied Su Zhen’s words but instead looked at Su Zhen and lightly asked, “Do you only want to be my teammate?”
“Of course not,” Su Zhen chuckled softly, his laughter deep and magnetic, as if it could reach into one’s heart.
He looked at the person in front of him, his eyes shimmering with meaning as he spoke. “A person is always lonely. Why not find someone to keep you company?”
Ruan Qing lowered his gaze, and his refined face revealed no expression. “What if I... don’t want to?”
Su Zhen laughed lightly once more, his voice languid as he spoke, “Ye Qing, you’re a smart person.”
“Smart people should know how to choose, right?”
The viewers in the live stream room were somewhat confused.
[Is Su Shen confessing for real? But it doesn’t feel quite like it, always with a dominant air. Is he going for a domineering style?]
[His methods seem a bit extreme! Is he trying to intimidate or lure him?]
[Is this even necessary? Who can refuse him? He’s Su Zhen! One of the top-ten ranked player. Even someone like me, a straight guy, could consider going not-so-straight for him!]
[What’s wrong with Su Zhen? He’s not even worthy of my wife! Take my wife away without hesitation!]
[How can I put it? At first, I thought no one could refuse Su Zhen, but when I see our extraordinarily beautiful wife, I start to think that maybe the big-shot isn’t quite deserving. I even want my wife to refuse him.]
[A coincidence, I feel the same. It seems like they’re both not worthy of my wife, only I am!]
[Quick, look at Crazy Lu’s expression. He seems like he wants to cut down Su Zhen. Can he avoid thinking about taking my wife?]
[Can he really not think about it? Obviously, Crazy Lu also seems interested in our wife. Let them fight it out! Let them fight it out, quick! I want to see who’s stronger!]
Lu Rufeng looked at Su Zhen’s back with dark and unclear eyes, lost in thought.
Meanwhile, Ruan Qing glanced at Su Zhen and Lu Rufeng, then turned his gaze to the edge of the rooftop and slowly answered Su Zhen’s question. “I know.”
“Rules are always made by the strong, and the weak can only follow the rules.”
“But...” Ruan Qing paused for a moment, then, the next second, he showed a brilliant smile at both of them. “I want to give it a try.”
Ruan Qing rarely smiled, but when he did, it was like a profusion of flowers after the snow melted, dazzling the whole world, making people unable to help but be amazed and lost in admiration.
Moreover, because of the charm in his eyes and the indescribable allure of his teardrop mole, he appeared like an enchanting fairy, causing hearts to skip a beat.
The two people on the rooftop, upon seeing Ruan Qing’s smile, were momentarily stunned.
And it was during this moment that Ruan Qing’s body tilted backward and plummeted straight towards the edge of the rooftop.
The expressions of the two people on the rooftop froze instantly, and they immediately rushed to the edge, attempting to catch him.
However, due to their momentary distraction, they were a step too late.
Su Zhen and Lu Rufeng both chuckled. Without hesitation, they leaped off the rooftop.
It was only the thirty-third floor, which for them was not a fatal height.
Su Zhen’s words about ‘not being able to escape even if he jumped’ were not intended to deceive anyone.
Ruan Qing had no surprise at all that the two of them jumped down. He remained calm.
With his peripheral vision, he observed the distance to the ground, calculating time and height in his mind.
Three meters.
Two meters.
One meter...
Now’s the time!
Ruan Qing’s figure vanished instantly into the air.
As Su Zhen and Lu Rufeng looked at the rapidly approaching shadow below, they had no time to figure out where Ruan Qing had gone. They immediately turned and dodged.
It seemed that the disappearance of a certain figure had enraged the shadow. The whole shadow no longer cared to conceal itself, and with a powerful and dangerous aura, it charged at the two.
Su Zhen and Lu Rufeng were left with no retreat and had to face it head-on, engaging in a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, Ruan Qing, who had just disappeared in mid-air, landed heavily in the corridor of the building, roughly twenty-something floors below.
The sharp pain made Ruan Qing’s eyes well up with tears, and his delicate face twisted in agony, his brain almost ceasing to function.
“Ugh...” Ruan Qing curled up on the ground, holding his elbow and trembling slightly. He unconsciously moaned a few times before slowly recovering from the pain.
His elbow and knees were injured, but this seemed to be the best outcome.
From the beginning, Ruan Qing never placed all his hopes on deceiving the two of them.
Being able to deceive naturally was the best option. If he couldn’t deceive successfully, then this plan would very likely expose himself.
So when he was planning to deceive the both of them, he also included himself in the calculation.
While letting those two players deceive the two, Ruan Qing found a way to lure the shadow closer.
If he really got exposed, he just needed to stand at the edge of the rooftop, and the shadow would naturally discover him.
And, of course, it would rush towards him.
Ruan Qing didn’t tell the two players about the latter part of the plan, but when he was formulating the plan, the tall player and the advanced male player were afraid to leave him alone, so they gave him some items to use for self-preservation.
One of those items was the ability to teleport.
However, this item was quite useless in reality because the teleport distance was only about a meter, and it couldn’t have any obstacles or obstructions in between, or it wouldn’t succeed.
In the face of a danger like the shadow, it was almost of no use, and it only delayed his death by a second.
But when Ruan Qing received this item, he didn’t even hesitate; he went straight to the rooftop.
Choosing an appropriate position from the rooftop to jump from, there wasn’t a meter of distance from the corridor.
As long as he opened the corridor’s window, calculated the speed and distance carefully, he could instantly drop from the air to the corridor.
The impact of the fall was still quite strong, even if he only fell a few meters, even if there was something cushioning in the corridor. Ruan Qing still hurt his elbow and knee.
But fortunately, everything was developing according to his plan.
Now both sides were fighting; both of them being wounded was the best outcome.
Even if it wasn’t, he had enough time to continue searching for clues.
He wanted to confirm one thing, a very important thing.
Ruan Qing stood by the window, glanced at the three figures who were fighting and paying no attention to anything else, then looked at the two players who were about to come up from below, and he sent a text message directly to the advanced male player.
Then he walked to a corner of the stairs where he couldn’t be seen, waiting for the two to come up and find him.
The two players arrived quickly.
The tall player, upon seeing the beautiful young man, froze completely and couldn’t come to his senses.
Who the hell was this guy?!?
The advanced male player, seeing Ruan Qing injured his elbow, gazed deeply and pursed his lips, immediately wanting to help Ruan Qing with his injury.
Yang Muqing, also feeling distressed, held onto Ruan Qing’s clothing corner and asked, “Dad, are you hurt?”
“It’s nothing, not a serious injury, no need to worry,” Ruan Qing touched his elbow, slightly avoiding the hand of the advanced male player, and signaled Yang Muqing by raising his chin. “Let’s go to Xishan Kindergarten again, and take him with us.”
“I have an idea that I need to...”
However, Ruan Qing hadn’t spoken yet when there was a loud bang.
The hallway was relatively dark, but suddenly the world lit up, with the sunlight shining directly on the group.
Ruan Qing’s body stiffened slightly, and he stupidly raised his head, immediately seeing the boundless blue sky and the glaring sunlight.
Even the sudden gust of wind blew his hair apart, making it hard for him to keep his eyes open.
The floor they were on... was directly cut off...
A faint voice behind them asked, “Where do you want to go?”
Although the tall player consoled himself this way, he knew the possibility was extremely slim.
After all, being audacious enough to utilize two big shots would naturally come at a cost, and they might end up in the same situation.
The advanced male player remained frozen in place, his fingernails piercing into his palms, and even blood oozing out and dripping onto the ground.
