Gu Nanqiu pursed her lips. She looked at the person standing on the platform, quickly ran through the information in her mind, and confirmed the person’s identity.
She leaned down and whispered an explanation into Yue Yiyue’s ear: “The ‘Ye Qiu’ identity had some work-related collaboration with her, but I swear it was only a collaborative relationship.”
On the high platform, Zhou Qingying was excitedly talking to herself: “Baby, in order to make you completely mine, I made a slight modification to this area.”
“I truly have to thank your younger sister for this; She told me all the weaknesses.”
“She let me know how I can become a perfect match for you.”
“Of course, before that, I’m also willing to use the fairest means to win your heart, to let you see clearly what a coward the person next to you is.”
“After you fully and completely belong to me, we will get married here and build our love nest together.” Such a wonderful future—wealth, money, power, and beauty.
She could have it all. Thinking this, Zhou Qingying excitedly stepped onto Zhou Qingyi’s head.
Adult Greed chose her as Her dependent. She truly has great taste.
She would be better than any of Greed’s previous puppets.
With a slight force, the person lying on the ground let out a painful moan. The hands tied behind his back were also pinched white.
Yue Yiyue immediately pushed Gu Nanqiu into Yu Man’s arms. A flash of silver light, and a sharp dagger, struck towards Zhou Qingying’s face.
Zhou Qingying looked up, a faint golden light flashing in her eyes. The sound of metal rolling came from all around.
Yue Yiyue had expected this. She hooked her finger. Gu Nanqiu, who was standing far away, immediately understood her intention. A thick tentacle quickly appeared beneath Yue Yiyue’s feet.
Tipping off her toe, Yue Yiyue dodged sideways in the air and landed on the ground. Another tentacle curled up a gold coin in the air and swiftly threw it into an unoccupied corner.
An explosion sounded. Debris flew towards Yue Yiyue, but was solidly blocked by the tentacle.
Taking advantage of the moment Zhou Qingying was startled by the tentacle, Yue Yiyue pointed at the tentacle.
The tentacle instantly wrapped around Zhou Qingying’s waist, dragging her backward and restricting her movements.
Using this opportunity, Yue Yiyue focused on cutting the rope, which was made of grotesque, distorted monster sludge, binding Zhou Qingyi’s back.
As Yue Yiyue worked, the rope emitted a sharp, buzzing sound. Zhou Qingying, who was close, immediately developed dense rings of bloody scratches on her hands from the sound waves.
Seeing Yue Yiyue slow down, Zhou Qingyi gritted his teeth and mumbled indistinctly: “Cut straight through. Even if my hand is ruined, it’s ruined.”
Can accomplish great things, Yue Yiyue praised in her heart. She didn’t dare slow down at all, quickly severing the rope.
Zhou Qingyi stood up, desperately grasping Yue Yiyue’s hand, and ran towards the exit without regard for his life.
“You…” Before Yue Yiyue could react, she was pulled by Zhou Qingyi and charged in that direction.
Sticky, disgusting blood stained Yue Yiyue’s hand. Yue Yiyue counted the rhythm, then increased her speed, picking Zhou Qingyi up onto her shoulder.
Behind them, Zhou Qingying’s entire face was covered in strange gold coins. Next to her was the fish-head monster holding a large blade. The tentacles had already vanished under the fish-head’s attack.
A small figure of Yue Yiyue solidified in the fish-head’s cold eyes. The gills on both sides flapped slowly. Its eyelids blinked, and the blade in its hand slashed across Zhou Qingying’s face. Clatter, clatter, gold coins poured out from her ruptured wound.
They fell to the floor, gradually grew larger, and sprouted limbs.
Soon, figures with twisted postures followed them, clearly targeting them like a tide.
Yu Man had already pried the door open. She threw something onto the floor, and the room was instantly filled with thick smoke.
It also carried a strange, pungent, spicy smell.
“Don’t stop once you’re out. They’re all outside. You have to go through that orange door.” Zhou Qingyi’s raspy voice squeezed out this sentence softly: “They’re all listening. I’ll bite your hand later, then go through that door.”
Yue Yiyue had to speed up to catch up with Yu Man and Gu Nanqiu. She threw down a command: “Follow me.”
The path was difficult. The swarming monsters were sliced by Yu Man and pushed aside by Gu Nanqiu’s tentacles, clearing a path.
They barely managed to carve out a bloody road.
They didn’t know how many purple doors they had run past, nor how many orange doors they had gone through.
As a small sting of pain came from her hand, Yue Yiyue instinctively turned to the side.
Yu Man glanced behind her, yanked Gu Nanqiu, who was only focused on clearing the rubbish, and they both dashed in.
The Unfair Solution
Click. The room went dark, and the door vanished. Even the disgusting roaring sounds from outside were blocked out.
Yue Yiyue pressed against the wall, listening to the footsteps outside, which seemed to be running in another direction.
Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief, panting softly, afraid that any major movement might attract something undesirable.
“Put me down.” Zhou Qingyi issued a small complaint: “I wasn’t tortured to death by my sister, but I was almost shaken to death by you.”
Yue Yiyue belatedly put Zhou Qingyi down: “My apologies. The situation was too urgent just now.”
Zhou Qingyi’s voice wasn’t particularly weak, but his hand was still bleeding.
Gu Nanqiu, rushing to speak before Yue Yiyue could ask, thoughtfully handed over a box, adding: “For stopping the bleeding.”
“That thing, are you confident you can fight through it?” Zhou Qingyi looked at his gaunt appearance, feeling somewhat lost, and found it a bit ridiculous that he had fallen to this point.
In just over ten days, he had endured inhumane torment.
Although he wouldn’t call himself a good person, being set up by his own sister…
Truly. He gave a bitter smile.
“The reason I was crazy enough to look for Gu Ye before was because of my sister.”
“That cake was also her welcome gift to me. The purpose was to confirm whether Gu Ye and Gu Nanqiu were the same person, and it was also the first step to driving me mad.”
“Later, she used He Wu and Wu Zhen’s eyes to confirm the matter of Gu Nanqiu having a clone.”
Zhou Qingyi leaned against the wall, watching Yue Yiyue gently apply medicine to his wound: “I’m sorry for the incident in City A, and thank you.”
“That time, I really wanted to invite you out for a meal to apologize.”
“And the film critic later on—that was indeed my sister’s doing. The original intention was to lure Ye Qiu, but she obtained your information through some illegal means, just to trick you into coming here.”
All of this was within Yue Yiyue’s expectations.
Gu Nanqiu wasn’t surprised either.
“We can’t win, can we?” Yu Man looked at the wall. She touched the wound on her arm. A multicolored black substance surged into it.
It seemed to contain a strange universe.
A peculiar fragrance filled the room, stimulating everyone’s taste buds and increasing salivation.
Gu Nanqiu rummaged through her bag and took out another jar of medicine, handing it to Yu Man.
“There are too many monsters on the other side,” Gu Nanqiu continued, following Yu Man’s words, calmly analyzing the current situation: “Greed is also hiding in the corner, not fighting us head-on.”
“More accurately, it’s not that we can’t win; it’s just that this small world can’t withstand the toll.”
Yu Man glanced at Gu Nanqiu, nodded seriously, and looked at Yue Yiyue: “The last time you resurrected, you ended up destroying three worlds. That’s why Mother restricted your abilities this lifetime and didn’t allow you to participate in formal quests.”
“And because of Mother’s influence, our strength here is inherently weakened. This place also has rules specifically targeting Gu Nanqiu, causing us to have many reservations.”
“It’s particularly important to note that this is Greed’s home field now, unless Gu Nanqiu’s true body comes.”
Yu Man glanced at Gu Nanqiu, nodded seriously, and looked at Yue Yiyue. She didn’t say the rest out loud, but she believed everyone knew what the second half of the sentence was.
She closed her mouth, glanced at Gu Nanqiu standing nearby, and under the latter’s approving gaze, retreated to where she should be.
After hearing Gu Nanqiu and Yu Man’s words, Yue Yiyue felt that something was amiss, but the urgency of the situation made everything seem quite reasonable.
“Gu Nanqiu’s true body… isn’t that just Gu Nanqiu?” Yue Yiyue seemed a bit confused: “You don’t mean we need to summon Ye Qiu and the others, gather all seven ‘Qius,’ and finally synthesize one Great Qiu?”
But when she saw Gu Nanqiu’s eyes, Yue Yiyue asked with suspicion: “Surely… we don’t really need to gather all seven Qius?”
“If this was so important, I would have found them all before coming here.” Yue Yiyue had already regained her composure. She stood still, staring at Gu Nanqiu, carefully observing her appearance.
“Yiyue.” Gu Nanqiu suppressed the worry in her brow. She stood still, hesitated repeatedly, and then sighed: “There is another way.”
“It’s just that this method is a bit unfair to you, and I really don’t want to use it.” Gu Nanqiu looked at Yue Yiyue with a troubled expression: “If you become my Breeder (Sìyǎngzhě) and share life with me, I can also sense your emotions, similar to the relationship between the forensic doctor and Gluttony.”
“In that case, everything I have will be at your disposal. As long as you call me in your heart, my clones can come here through this special link.”
“But this means we can never separate again…”
“It’s just too unfair to you, which is why I didn’t want to mention it.”
Zhou Qingyi looked at Gu Nanqiu in shock. Just as he was about to open his mouth to speak, something muffled his mouth. He struggled to make a sound, but was unable to.
Yue Yiyue certainly noticed this small detail, but she made her decision in just thirty seconds. She patted Zhou Qingyi’s shoulder reassuringly: “We’ll do as you said. That way, you can seize sovereignty here.”
“What should I do?”
“What can I do?”
“How should I cooperate with you?”
The Bonding
A lighter flickered with a soft glow. Yue Yiyue found a bowl in the corner.
It looked quite clean.
Gu Nanqiu produced a bottle of water from nowhere. She gave a resentful look to the two people standing awkwardly in the room.
If they weren’t here, she could supply her fresh blood to Yue Yiyue herself, using her lips and tongue.
What a pity.
Truly a shame.
Yue Yiyue stared at the bowl, lost in thought. This scene was not unfamiliar to her; the only difference was that she was the protagonist this time.
She confirmed the steps one more time: “Are you sure we just need to mix our blood and then drink it, and that’s it?”
“There were some other steps, but they’ve already been completed, so only the last bit remains.” Gu Nanqiu cleaned the bowl again.
Brightly colored, sweet-smelling blood dripped into the bowl.
Yue Yiyue imitated Gu Nanqiu and cut a gash on her own palm.
As her blood fell into the bowl, it was quickly enveloped by Gu Nanqiu’s blood, mingling and rolling together in the small bowl, finally merging into a beautiful pink color.
Gu Nanqiu stared at the long, narrow wound on Yue Yiyue’s hand. She leaned down, her crimson tongue slowly tracing the irregular cut, gently sucking the blood that continuously flowed out, as if consuming some life-saving elixir.
Yue Yiyue felt the pain in her hand transform into a different kind of tingling sensation, especially with the feather-light kiss at the end, which sent an inexplicable electric current through her body.
“It’s done.” Gu Nanqiu looked at the hand, where the wound had vanished and returned to normal. She rubbed Yue Yiyue’s wrist: “I have many more functions waiting for you to unlock, but we’ll talk about that when we get back tonight.”
“My good Yiyue, after you drink this, I will never, ever, ever be able to leave you again.”
She was already tired of living without Yue Yiyue.
“Nanqiu.” Yue Yiyue took the bowl. She looked at Gu Nanqiu: “I was right there when Gluttony was forced to sign the Breeder contract by the forensic doctor.”
After drinking half, Yue Yiyue handed the other half to Gu Nanqiu: “I willingly gave up my own freedom, choosing to share everything I have and be bound to you.”
“Because I love you.”
