Chapter 212 I'll pay for the ride, hurry up!
This question, of course, wasn't one that Chen You really wanted to ask an NPC if they loved him.
In her opinion, Yan Yan's character is supposed to like strong people.
So he wanted to use this question to see if he could shut her down.
Yan Yan's tearful expression stiffened.
This question is really... way beyond the scope of the curriculum!
In her core program, there are only two settings: "attach to the strong" and "trigger the plot".
If you lose, then you're not a strong person, so what kind of love is that?
But we haven't fought yet, and you haven't lost, so according to the storyline, it should be love... right?
Yan Yan was stunned for a moment, a brief look of confusion flashing in her misty eyes.
Then, she gently but resolutely shook her head.
There was no answer, but the sorrow and helplessness in that gesture were more powerful than any words.
It's as if it's saying: If you lose, I can only be like a fallen flower, surrendering myself to the victor.
Our connection ends here.
Good guy!
Chen You secretly praised him.
It seems the source world's program has indeed been upgraded; this makes sense.
Far from crashing, it transformed a "snobbish and materialistic" premise into a tragic beauty imbued with a sense of fatalism.
specialized!
But this scene was interpreted in a completely different way by Nie Renwang.
"That's enough!"
This is openly flirting in front of him, the "official" one!
If I lose, will you still love me?
To him, those words were nothing short of a spiritual insult!
"Aaaaaah—!"
Nie Renwang went completely insane.
He felt like his skull had turned green!
One second ago, you wished me a long and happy marriage.
The next second, you ask me if my wife loves me?!
"I'll take your life!"
With a roar that shook the bamboo forest, Nie Renwang's burly body shot up like a cannonball.
A fist the size of a clay pot, wreathed in crimson flames and accompanied by a sonic boom that tore through the air, slammed down toward Chen You's face!
This punch was powerful and heavy, enough to split mountains and shatter rocks!
Yan Yan subconsciously took a half step back, her beautiful eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.
finally come!
The part she most wanted to see!
However, the anticipated earth-shattering collision did not occur.
Faced with this ferocious attack, Chen You didn't even change his posture; he simply raised his right hand.
He spread his five fingers and pressed them against the giant fist.
boom!
A muffled thud.
Nie Renwang's fist, powerful enough to shatter boulders, was effortlessly blocked by a seemingly ordinary palm.
Where fists and palms collided, the air rippled outwards, causing the surrounding bamboo leaves to rustle.
Time seems to stand still at this moment.
Nie Renwang's crimson pupils suddenly contracted, his face filled with disbelief.
How... is that possible?!
Before he could react, a purple-blue lightning bolt quietly lit up in Chen You's palm.
"Sizzle—"
Fine, crackling lightning instantly spread from Nie Renwang's arm to his entire body, emitting a sickeningly loud crackling sound.
Divine Firmament Heavenly Thunder Righteous Law!
"Ughhhh!"
Nie Renwang let out a piercing scream, and his burly body convulsed violently.
The crimson aura surging from his body was extinguished instantly, like embers doused with water.
Before Chen You's eyes, the bright red BOSS's health bar was pouring down like a waterfall that had been opened!
100%...80%...50%...30%...
Finally, it stopped precisely at the 20% mark.
【Ding! 】
[BOSS: Fire Kirin King Nie Renwang is dead; status has changed.]
"Huh? That's it?"
Chen You slowly released his grip.
Nie Renwang's tall body swayed, his legs went weak, and he knelt down on one knee with a "thump".
The violent aura emanating from him vanished without a trace, leaving only weakness and confusion after being electrocuted.
He looked up, staring blankly at the unharmed man before him, his eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.
Instant kill?
I got instantly killed?
The bamboo forest fell silent once again.
"Wow!"
A delighted exclamation broke the silence.
The pitiful Yan Yan from just moments ago had completely lost her tear stains, replaced by a bright and radiant smile.
She ran to Chen You's side in a few quick steps, tilted her pretty face up, and her beautiful eyes sparkled with admiration.
"Young master, you are amazing!"
The tone and expression seemed to say: No wonder he's the man I've set my sights on, he's so handsome!
Chen You glanced at her, his heart unmoved.
Hearing this delicate praise, Nie Renwang, who was kneeling on the ground, felt a lump in his throat and almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
He struggled to his feet, staring intently at Chen You, gritting his teeth as he forced out a sentence:
"You...you're actually quite capable."
"However..." he changed the subject, trying to salvage the situation.
"However, that's only because... my weapon isn't in my hand! If I had my 'Blood Blade,' you would be no match for me!"
"Pfft."
Yan Yan, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh out loud and made a sarcastic remark without holding back.
"With Nie Renwang gone, all you have left is your stubbornness."
"What difference would it make if I held that broken knife of yours?"
She turned to Chen You, her tone instantly becoming gentle and tender.
"Young master, let's ignore this loser and go."
She can't wait to start the next chapter of the story, "flying away with the victor."
However, Chen You acted as if he hadn't heard her.
His gaze, however, fell upon Nie Renwang, his eyes revealing a hint of seriousness.
Where is your weapon?
Yan Yan was taken aback.
Nie Renwang was also taken aback.
According to the plot, shouldn't you be taking the beauty to enjoy yourself?
As for when I'll seek revenge on you, that's my business.
"Why...why are you asking this?" Nie Renwang asked warily.
"It's nothing," Chen You shrugged. "I just wanted to convince you."
"..." Nie Ren died.
"..." Yan Yan.
"Hurry up." Chen You's tone was like urging a dawdling teammate to repair their equipment. "I'll wait for you here."
"Young Master," Yan Yan couldn't help but tug at Chen You's sleeve and whispered her advice.
"Don't waste your breath on him. What if he calls his men?"
Chen You finally turned around and looked at her, his expression strange.
"Call for help? Let them call, I'm not afraid."
One sentence left Yan Yan speechless.
Chen You ignored her and looked at Nie Renwang again, even with a hint of encouragement.
"You don't want to watch your wife run off with someone else, do you? What are you waiting for!"
For him, this was merely a trial for a king.
It's such a waste of time to dawdle like that.
Nie Renwang stared intently at Chen You, but he saw no contempt or humiliation in the other man's eyes.
There was only a pure...urging.
He... was sincere.
An unprecedented sense of humiliation and fighting spirit rose from the depths of Nie Renwang's heart at the same time.
He, the Fire Kirin King Nie Renwang, had roamed this place for decades, but had never received such "courtesy" before.
The other party actually thought I was too weak!
"good!"
Nie Renwang suddenly stood up straight. Although his breath was weak, his aura rose again.
He pointed into the distance, his voice strong and clear, as if he were making a sacred vow.
"Three days later, at noon! Beyond the bamboo grove, by the green river, atop that statue!"
"I will settle this with you... once more!"
After saying that, he gave Chen You a deep look.
He then turned around, dragging his weak body, and walked step by step towards the edge of the bamboo forest.
Chen You stood there, but frowned.
"Wait a moment."
Nie Renwang paused, but did not turn around.
"You want to back out?"
"No," Chen You said sincerely, "You're going to take three days to get a weapon?"
Nie Renwang turned around, "Three days is the shortest time possible for a round trip!"
"So far?" Chen You frowned even more deeply.
"How about I give you money to hire a car? Would that be faster?"
