Chapter 93: See If I Don’t Throw You Downstairs
It wasn’t that the living room was messy or that there was something inappropriate for children there. It was that the living room was too clean and tidy.
It was so clean and tidy that it was as if no woman had entered at all.
Chu Luo’s gaze swept across him and she suddenly saw the open window. She couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s that woman?”
Li Yan turned to look at the window.
Chu Luo subconsciously walked over to take a look. When she did, she was shocked to see the woman below. As the force of the impact was too great, her body was embedded in the soil. It was unknown if she was unconscious or if she had been killed.
She turned around to look at Li Yan and pointed down. “Don’t tell me you threw her out from here?”
“Mm,” Li Yan replied before s.h.i.+fting his gaze to Qin Ming.
Qin Ming quickly reported to him, “Master, that person has been captured. The other Gu Masters are treating him right now.”
He then stood there waiting for Li Yan’s order.
Li Yan’s expression was extremely cold. “Since he likes to cast Gu worms, let him have a taste of all kinds of them for the rest of his life.”
Then, he said, “Investigate who this person is.”
Qin Ming straightened his body. “Yes.”
With that, he left.
The moment Qin Ming left, Li Yan walked to the sofa and sat down.
Chu Luo followed him and asked, “How did you feel when that woman came in just now?”
After asking this, she realized that she was suddenly a little nervous. She subconsciously widened her eyes and stared at his expression.
Li Yan glanced at her and said calmly, “Disgusted.”
Chu Luo: “…” Why was this answer different from what she had imagined?
Seeing Chu Luo suddenly freeze, Li Yan stood up unhappily and walked towards the door.
Chu Luo quickly snapped back to reality and asked, “Where are you going?”
“I’ll send you back.”
“Hey, I haven’t removed the Gu worm for you.”
“Do it later.”
Chu Luo looked at his back as he walked out after saying that and quickly followed him. After following him, she asked, “Did you know that I did something to the Gu worm in your body?”
“Mm.”
“But that’s not right either. I only let the Gu worm stay on your arm and not climb into your heart. But when you saw that woman and the two Gu worms met, did you really not do anything?”
“I did.”
“…” Chu Luo puffed up her cheeks and glared at him.
“I threw her out the window.”
“…” Chu Luo: “Pfft… You’re such a bad man who doesn’t know how to cherish the fairer s.e.x.”
Li Yan suddenly stopped.
Chu Luo didn’t notice it and b.u.mped into his back.
“Oof… why did you suddenly stop?” Chu Luo covered her nose that was in pain from the collision and quickly took a step back.
Li Yan turned around and looked at her with his dark eyes.
Just as Chu Luo looked back at him with those big, confused eyes, he suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist.
“What… what are you doing?”
“See if I can throw you down the stairs.” Li Yan then pulled her towards the staircase.
“How dare you! If you throw me down, I won’t cure you of the Gu worm. Not only will I not undo it, I’ll even cast ten… no, a hundred types of Gu worms.”
Li Yan didn’t answer her and quickened his pace.
He realized that holding her didn’t make him feel disgusted at all.
Chu Luo was being pulled along. As she quickened her pace, she tried to free her hand from his iron grip.
Li Yan threatened in a low voice, “If you keep causing trouble, forget about going back tonight.”
Chu Luo stopped struggling and glared at him. “Do you think you can keep me here?”
Li Yan didn’t answer. He pulled her to the staircase before letting go of her wrist.
Once her hand was free, Chu Luo put it behind her back and looked at him warily.
Unexpectedly, Li Yan went downstairs immediately.
…
By the time they returned to Chu Luo’s house, it was already past eleven. After Chu Luo lured out the Gu worm from Li Yan’s arm and destroyed it, she returned to her room to sleep.
The next day, Chu Luo especially woke up early.
To her surprise, Li Yan arrived before her.
Li Yan didn’t do his morning exercises. Instead, he was sitting in the living room downstairs, signing a few doc.u.ments. Beside him stood his secretary, Tan Yinfei.
When Chu Luo went downstairs, Tan Yinfei said to her, “Miss Chu, the game equipment you wanted has been sent to you.”
Chu Luo was a little surprised as her gaze followed his finger and she looked at the big boxes piled beside the sofa. She quickly walked over and looked at the labels on it, then her eyes lit up.
“I heard from my seniors before that this brand has world-cla.s.s performance. It’s the ideal equipment for gamers.”
After saying that, she turned to the people standing outside the door and said, “Help me install it quickly. I’ll try using this equipment later.”
A few people walked in from outside the door, each of them carrying a paper box as they walked upstairs. Chu Luo immediately followed them.
After Chu Luo went upstairs, Tan Yinfei asked Li Yan, “Master, what should we do next?”
“Get rid of that rat feces.”
“Yes.”
…
The final compet.i.tion of “Battle of Lightyears” began under the watchful eyes of thousands of people.
The Blazing Glory Corporation, which was affiliated with “Battle of Lightyears,” had already promoted this compet.i.tion vigorously before the selection compet.i.tion. Now that it was the finals, they even spent a lot of money to broadcast it on various online platforms and television primetime slots.
When the game characters from the five teams that had entered the finals appeared, the entire Internet erupted. All kinds of discussion posts flew everywhere.
“Do you want to bet on which team will advance in this match?”
“I’ve seen every match before. I think the last two teams to advance will be ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ and ‘What Can The Heavens Do About Me.’”
“I think ‘What Can The Heavens Do About Me’ has a greater advantage. After all, their team made it into the finals three years ago. They have experience fighting again this year.”
“Didn’t people say that [Bai Ling] from ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ is a G.o.d’s smurf account? Maybe he can lead their team to level up.”
“I think the other three teams aren’t weak either. Who knows who will advance when the time comes?”
…
No matter what the outside world said, at 8:30 in the morning, “Battle of Lightyears” closed the player’s online system and the members of all five teams were in position.
The last round of the grand finals was an interstellar battle. It would test not only the combat strength of the few teams remaining but also their ability to react to various sudden situations.
The system released a compet.i.tion mission: “The interstellar battle lasts for eight hours. Each player has only one chance to revive. The last surviving team wins.”
At nine in the morning, the compet.i.tion officially began.
The system teleported the five teams into the vast galaxy.
Chu Luo and the others continued to talk into the microphone.
Xie Minghai: “D*mn! The five teams in our team aren’t placed in the same area!”
Xu Qingfeng said, “There are benefits to this too. At least Ouyang Yu can’t ally with the other teams to deal with our team first.”
Yu Lei: “That’s hard to say. What if he manages to find the other teams before us?”
After the three of them finished speaking, they asked Tang Zhiyun and Chu Luo at the same time, “Boss, Little Junior Sister, what do you think?”
Tang Zhiyun said, “Since everyone has been placed in different areas, let’s go look for them directly. As long as we can find them quickly and eliminate one team first, they will have one less chance to ally with Ouyang Yu.”
“How?” Xie Minghai said. “The interstellar battle isn’t like the land battles. The situation here changes rapidly. Other than looking for people, we also have to pay attention not to be sucked into the black hole. Also, we’ve got to keep an eye on those troublesome interstellar monsters. We will be wasting too much time.”
As Chu Luo listened to them, she suddenly remembered the changes in the galaxy that she had paid special attention to when she was doing the mission with [Y] the other day. At that time, she had realized that there was actually a pattern to the galaxy.
At this thought, she suddenly had an idea and said to them, “I know a way to avoid the black hole and lure them here.”
The others asked at the same time, “What way?”
Chu Luo smiled. “Nothing else in the galaxy can be teleported out, but the gorgeous colors can spread far.”
After saying that, she used a gorgeous skill.
The nearby starry sky was illuminated by this gorgeous technique.
Everyone who was watching the compet.i.tion was dumbfounded when they saw [Bai Ling] suddenly use this skill.
However, at this moment, another team rushed towards their team.
The two teams faced each other and started fighting.
During this tense and exciting moment, the audience, who were watching the live broadcast and could see where the five teams were, stared at the screen and couldn’t help but discuss:
“[Bai Ling]’s method of luring the snakes out of their holes is amazing. It actually really lured a team over!”
“Their team was lucky. Coincidentally, one of the teams saw the glow of her formidable skill. If the other teams had been nearby, their team would have been besieged.”
“Maybe [Bai Ling] had already guessed that there was only one team nearby.”
“Tsk… [Bai Ling] is indeed a PK demon. This technique and movement are amazing!”
“But the other people from ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ are so impressive too. They cooperate well!”
“Heavens! What gorgeous skills. Watching them fight, I feel like I’m watching an interstellar battle.”
“Wow…”
“Awesome!”
“Holy s.h.i.+t!”
…
More than an hour later, there was news on the World Channel:
[Congratulations! Team “Phoenix Skies Legend” has defeated the “Atlas Gang”!]
The three teams that were still elsewhere in the galaxy:
“D*mn! What happened?”
“How did ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ and ‘Atlas Gang’ meet so soon?”
Ouyang Yu, who was sitting in front of his computer, looked at the world news. Disbelief flashed across his face.
The teammate beside him asked worriedly, “Team leader, do you think that [Bai Ling] is really a G.o.d’s smurf account? ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ defeated a team so quickly. Will we be in danger?”
Another person said unhappily, “Gangzi, what nonsense are you talking about? It’s possible that their two teams just happened to meet.”
After which, he asked Ouyang Yu, “Team leader, what do we do next?”
The corners of Ouyang Yu’s lips curled into a sinister smile. “Since ‘Phoenix Skies Legend’ likes to stand out so much, we’ll let them eliminate the other two teams as well.”
