Chapter 152 – It's Over!

Volume 2: Battlefield Between Two Worlds

"Hypocrite!"

Sun Aotian stared at Wen Yu's calm expression and slowly spat out those three words.

"You talk so grandly, making it sound so pleasant, as if you never intended to kill me in the first place!"

"Wen Yu, big brother!"

"Let's stop with this useless bullshit! Because honestly, it makes me sick!"

"You came out here just to kill people, didn't you? Whether it's me, Zhang Lifei, or… Sun-Ge, you won't let a single one of us go!"

"Since that little trick just now didn't manage to screw you over, then come on! Come and kill me!"

"You can certainly bring yourself to lay a hand on me, but what about SUN! GE!"

As Sun Aotian shouted, a figure slowly walked over.

"I want to see if you can bring yourself to lay a hand on him!"

…

"What, you've teamed up with them?"

Wen Yu looked at the slightly pale Sun Ruixing and lightly crushed his cigarette butt under his foot.

Sun Ruixing nodded, offering a silent response to Wen Yu's question.

"I see. I didn't expect you to stand on their side, but I suppose it's only natural. After all, if you stayed with me, you wouldn't be able to survive until the end!"

"That's right."

Only now did Sun Ruixing speak for the first time.

"I'm not as strong as you, and I'm not as ruthless as you. Even if I helped you, you would still kill me in the end!"

Wen Yu nodded.

Sun Aotian was right, and Sun Ruixing was right too!

From the moment Wen Yu crawled out of the ground, he had been possessed by the resolve to kill every living creature here.

No matter who they were!

"However, dying at your hands is the only way it wouldn't be a waste!"

As soon as Sun Ruixing finished speaking, the situation changed abruptly!

…

His right hand swung his shield with lightning speed, slamming it directly into Zhang Lifei's face beside him!

Under Sun Ruixing's sudden assault, the completely defenseless Zhang Lifei felt as if he had been hit head-on by a sports car. His entire body was sent airborne, flipping two and a half times in the air before landing headfirst, stuck in the ground like a planted onion!

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Sun Ruixing's actions, Sun Aotian cried out in total disbelief.

"Nothing much. I just wanted to take care of a beast!"

Sun Ruixing spoke slowly, looking calmly at Zhang Lifei, who was sprawled on the ground with blood streaming from his facial features.

"By the way, did you know? Back at the Settlement, I met with Li Shanlin several times. We even shared a few drinks!"

Sun Ruixing stepped on Zhang Lifei's back. The immense force caused Zhang Lifei to immediately cough up a mouthful of blood, his aura becoming even more withered!

"So you definitely don't understand what kind of feelings the man you just killed had for you!"

"That guy never married his whole life. He spent his entire life following your old man, watching you grow up."

"I drank with him twice. Both times, he said he wanted to see you get married, see you have a child, and that he wanted to be your child's godfather!"

"I think that after hearing the final rules just now, he must have already planned to sacrifice himself to protect you! He must have!"

"In the end, his death was so pathetic, so cheap. Truly!"

"I saw it at the time. You channeled a Skill from behind him and struck it directly into his body!"

"He turned his head and just looked at you like that!"

"You didn't have the heart to look him in the eye. You lowered your head and then used another Skill!"

"Maybe you should have looked at his eyes. In my understanding, there probably wasn't any resentment in them!"

"You wantonly hurt those who love you? You ruthlessly harm those who help you?"

"You really don't deserve to live. Moreover, I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

After Sun Ruixing finished speaking, he didn't care what Zhang Lifei, who was sprawled on the ground, thought. He raised his foot and crushed Zhang Lifei's skull with a single stomp!

Then, he turned his head and looked at Sun Aotian, whose face was filled with disbelief.

"Your turn!"

…

Wen Yu wiped off a large rock nearby and sat down. He lit a cigarette and quietly watched the battle unfolding before him.

Wen Yu didn't know what Sun Ruixing was thinking. If the three of them had worked together, they might have had a slight, negligible chance of winning.

But once Sun Ruixing killed Zhang Lifei, the remaining two would have absolutely no chance against Wen Yu.

Although it exceeded Wen Yu's expectations…

"Now that's the Sun I know!"

A low sigh escaped Wen Yu's lips as the battle ahead came to an end.

Sun Aotian was dead; there was no doubt about that.

Setting aside Skills, in terms of Physical Attribute alone, Sun Ruixing outclassed Sun Aotian several times over.

"Give me a smoke."

Sun Ruixing, carrying a blood-stained shield, sat down directly next to Wen Yu and asked for a cigarette.

The two of them smoked in silence, quietly watching One-Eye as he continued to slaughter the few remaining Mutant Beasts.

"Why did you kill the two of them?"

"If I didn't kill them, was I supposed to kill you? Setting aside whether I'd be willing to, even if the three of us joined forces, what were our chances of winning?"

"More importantly, those two kids had no manners! I didn't like them!"

"Fair enough. But by doing this, you've essentially triggered the Annihilation of your only hope. You understand that I won't show mercy."

Wen Yu's words were serious and solemn.

Dealing with Sun Ruixing at what might be the final moments of his life, Wen Yu disdained lying and was unwilling to do so.

"You will kill me."

Sun Ruixing spoke with a tone of certainty.

In response, Wen Yu remained silent.

"But, do you know something?"

After saying this, Sun Ruixing suddenly threw an arm around Wen Yu's neck.

"Whether you will kill me and whether you want to kill me are two different things!"

"Do you want to kill me?"

"I don't!"

Wen Yu's answer was equally certain.

"Then that's enough!"

"Even if it's by your hand, the one who killed me isn't you."

"So, don't carry any psychological burden."

Sun Ruixing spoke to Wen Yu with a smile, but Wen Yu didn't hear the rest clearly.

It was nothing more than words of comfort for himself; such things were truly dispensable now…

…

In the distance, One-Eye came trotting back, only to see his Boss smoking and chatting with Sun Ruixing.

It looked just like any other time.

And yet, there was a sense that something was different.

Thus, One-Eye quietly lay down beside Wen Yu before being retracted into the Soul Realm.

"It's beautiful! That sunset! Do you see it?"

Sun Ruixing pointed toward the horizon where the sun was nearing its set, then nudged Wen Yu with his elbow.

"Yeah."

Wen Yu responded softly. Then, there was another deathly silence.

It lasted until the sun dipped below the horizon.

"It's time to send me on my way…"
