Only then did Ning Shu understand what Mei Ziqing meant when she said that first generation task-takers could easily decide if ordinary task-takers lived or died.
If only she were powerful. Then when the f*cking twisted uncle tried to obliterate her she would’ve fr*king obliterated him first.
Without power, there was no dignity or right to speak.
The harsh truth was that the strong ruled.
After practicing all night, a fine strand of energy formed in her dantian. Her body became warmer and she felt a lot more comfortable.
Her hand which was torn up by the thread still had flesh dangling and was now getting very itchy and red. Ning Shu took a few more anti-inflammatory pills to prevent fever and inflammation.
The uncle and 795 came downstairs. When Ning Shu saw the uncle, she lowered her head. She could only see his slender calves and his faintly floating windbreaker out of the corner of her eyes.
Each step that he took down the stairs was like a stomp on her heart. It was extremely hard to bear.
She had developed a fear of the man.
Ning Shu took a deep breath and silently recited the heart-clearing chant, suppressing her negative emotions. One day she would become strong and take her revenge by eliminating him.
She fantasized for a while.
“The hell? Two more dead in one night and they were even task-takers?” 795 shrugged his shoulders, “This mission is just, wow.”
Ning Shu was silent. If it wasn’t for her upgraded protective charm, it would’ve been three people who were dead.
Damn, it had taken so much merit to exchange for an upgraded protective charm.
Ning Shu was really frustrated. She wanted to cry.
“Wipe down the stool.” The uncle beckoned Ning Shu.
Ning Shu smiled and held up her messily wrapped hand, “I’m crippled.”
Fuck, he had just eliminated her once and now he was making her do things again. Did he have any fucking shame?
Didn’t it make him feel guilty?
795 thought for a while. He wiped the stool with his own butt, stood up and told the uncle, “I’ve wiped, you can sit down.”
The uncle glanced at him. He didn’t sit on the stool and instead sat on the chair beside 795.
“How did they die?” 795 asked. He had been in the same room as the boss. It was so safe that he slept right through it.
The guy didn’t know anything that happened last night.
Ning Shu glanced at the uncle and said, “It was murder.” To be precise, Zhang Jiasen wanted to kill her. Mei Ziqing was killed accidentally because she was in a hurry.
Ning Shu felt that Mei Ziqing was very anxious. She was probably desperate to catch the murderer to end this mission and gain merit to become an advanced task-taker.
It was easy to make mistakes when in a hurry.
795 raised an eyebrow. “So 6457 was killed by you?”
Ning Shu shook her head. She glanced at the indifferent uncle and said, “Maybe he was eliminated.”
795 couldn’t help but look at the uncle. He pulled Ning Shu out of the room and asked, “What’s going on?”
Ning Shu told 795 about the whole incident.
795 couldn’t help but shake his head. “He was probably eliminated. He didn’t even consider what kind of mission this is.”
“This plane was about to become an ultra plane. It would’ve been a catastrophe if the laws collapsed. Hundreds of millions of creatures on this plane would just perish. The plane fragments and law fragments would cause damage to the neighbouring planes. Planes are all interconnected. If not, how could there be so many transmigrations?”
“The mission is the most important thing. I hate that 496 whore so much but I still didn’t do anything. Grudges can be settled after completing the mission.” 795 shook his head. “If the mission fails, even the souls of a hundred thousand dead task-takers wouldn’t be enough to stabilize the collapse of the plane.”
