Chapter 103: Everyone Falls in Love (5)

The more fiercely they fought, the gentler He Yu’s smile became.

Bo Jingshan: “...”

Wanrenzhan: “...”

One rubbed his arms, the other touched the back of his chilly head. Both had complicated expressions.

He Yu smiled gently. He even took a few steps back, giving the two people on the ground space to thrash around. As the “instigator,” he hid his achievements and fame.

At first, he and Eugene had needed to make a “love choice,” but the rules had not given a specific time limit back then. Because of that, He Yu had taken Eugene to find Gedai and forced the two of them into a couple bond.

Eugene had already become one half of a “couple,” so their previous love choice naturally became invalid.

Now, “Eugene and Gedai” were bound, and “Wanrenzhan and Bo Jingshan” were bound. Both couples were safe, and He Yu, the only single person, was also safe.

Safe He Yu stood to the side. However long Eugene and Gedai fought, that was how long he watched.

Wanrenzhan looked at the two people on the ground, then looked at the smiling He Yu, and could not help muttering, “Fuck, he’s basically a devil...”

He Yu ignored him.

Bo Jingshan swept him a faint glance, carrying disdain and coldness.

Seeing this, Wanrenzhan sneered. “What are you acting {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} so proud for? Aren’t you also creeped out inside? Don’t think I can’t feel it.”

Looking at such a terrifying He Yu, Bo Jingshan was obviously creeped out too. What was he pretending to be calm for?

Bo Jingshan: “...”

This damned couple’s “mutual understanding” was really fucking awful.

——He could not even properly keep up his cold, composed face anymore.

 After Eugene and Gedai finished their “intimate exchange,” they lay on the ground covered in sweat and bruises, panting heavily. Adding the faint pink mist lingering around the two of them...

It truly made people’s imaginations run wild.

[Barrage: “If I didn’t know they were fighting, I would definitely think they were... hehehe.”]

[Barrage: “I’m dying, watching these two tear at each other can make me laugh for a whole year. This is the price of offending He Yu.”]

[Barrage: “My God He is actually still single. Hurry up and arrange a partner for him!”]

[Barrage: “Zhen Xing, currently rushing over on horseback.”]

[Barrage: “Why is Zhen Xing always on the way? Still on the way?”]

Far away, Zhen Xing sighed and patted his flying equipment. “Why are you so useless?”

Although this equipment looked better than He Yu’s broom...

Clearly he was chasing He Yu, but as long as the other party set off, the distance between them only grew farther and farther!

Fortunately, the other party had stopped. Soon, soon.

Wanrenzhan looked at He Yu. “What do we do next?”

He had absolutely no thought of acting alone with his “partner.” Clearly, his “partner” had the same idea as him.

He Yu raised his hand and touched his delicate, beautiful chin, his eyes thoughtful. “I want to keep exploring Love Planet, and find some food and a place to stay along the way.”

On the ground, Eugene suddenly sprang up. “I report that Gedai is hiding food!”

Gedai: “???”

The three of them looked at Eugene. Eugene dusted himself off. Because he had gotten up too suddenly, he tugged at the injuries on his body and bared his teeth in pain. “Gedai has been looking for food the whole time. Not only did he hide some in his backpack, he was also digging here, digging up food hidden underground!”

Gedai: “...”

——Listen to me say thank you, my good couple partner.

Eugene sold out his partner very naturally, and with complete confidence.

Gedai also slowly crawled up, so angry that he ground his teeth. He already could not beat Eugene in the first place, so when the two of them wrestled, his injuries were heavier. This guy had gained the advantage and was actually tattling too. He was truly disgusting!

He simply wished he could slice Eugene’s head off. His eyes spat fire. “That’s something I found myself! I found this place too!”

He Yu: “Whoever sees it gets a share.”

Bo Jingshan and Wanrenzhan nodded in unison.

Gedai flew into a rage and wished he could kill these annoying ghosts on the spot. Unfortunately, one person could not beat this many people.

But handing over the food was something he was truly unwilling to do.

He Yu looked at Gedai. “What you found before belongs to you. As for what is here now, we’ll dig it out together. Whoever sees it gets a share. Is that all right?”

Gedai: ...

That seemed acceptable?

It was better than forcing him to take out all his food for nothing, right?

He could not beat three people, and Eugene definitely would not help him. Sharing food that had not been found yet was better than having the food already in his backpack snatched away...

Gedai slowly nodded.

He Yu blinked and sincerely suggested, “Right, having everyone look for food here is a little wasteful. There are too many of us. How about we cooperate and split up?”

There were five people in their team alone, taking up half the entire competition field!

Gedai felt this made some sense, so he continued nodding.

He Yu calmly commanded, “Bo Jingshan, Wanrenzhan, and I will continue investigating the situation and look for a resting place while we’re at it. This place is safer. You and Eugene keep digging for food. When we come back, we’ll share the information we investigated with you.”

Gedai paused slightly. It seemed... very reasonable?

After all, digging here was still considered safe, while the people going out to investigate were more in danger.

If they stayed here, even if someone ran into them, it would be the other party’s bad luck.

Although he did not want to stay with Eugene at all, He Yu’s arrangement was indeed the most suitable one for the current situation.

So Gedai nodded.

Eugene: “I don’t want to stay alone with him!”

Gedai sneered. “You think I want to?”

He Yu patiently advised, “This is the best arrangement. You can’t be more than five kilometers apart. Besides, couples are safest when they stay together. Other people can’t hurt you either. Once you get through twenty-four hours, you can split up.”

Gedai and Eugene looked at each other, then turned their heads away in disgust at the same time.

But because couples had “mutual understanding,” they could feel the other party’s disgust. The disgust doubled, making them suffer.

Eugene gritted his teeth. “Tomorrow, we absolutely split up.”

Gedai: “Heh, you think I want to be bound to you?”

The two cursed and grumbled as they went to dig. He Yu waved his sleeve, took Bo Jingshan and Wanrenzhan with him, stepped onto the broom, and flew into the sky, quickly disappearing from sight.

The two people on the ground hated each other and did not want to look at each other for even one more glance. They lowered their heads and dug, without lifting their heads.

As they dug and dug...

Gedai: “?”

He suddenly stopped moving and said in disbelief, “Wait, something’s wrong——”

With mutual understanding, Eugene could vaguely sense his thoughts too. He also froze and lifted his head blankly.

Gedai threw down his weapon and gnashed his teeth. “We got tricked by He Yu. They were already flying around everywhere in the first place. I found the food, I’m digging it out with my own hands, so why do I have to share it with them?!”

He had originally been digging here anyway. Eugene had not originally been traveling with He Yu and the other two either.

Those three had been flying around in the sky the whole time. Now they were back to “flying around in the sky,” so why the hell were the people on the ground digging food for them??

This was not fair at all!

Eugene: “...”

Careless. He had only been focused on grossing out Gedai, and got tricked by He Yu again.

Gedai ground his teeth and squeezed a sentence out from his throat. “Eugene, you damn liability!”

——It was Eugene who had suddenly reported that he had food!

Eugene sneered. “You’re smart? If you’re smart, why didn’t you react just now? Didn’t you still let He Yu scheme against you? I saw you nod with my own eyes.”

“Will you die if you don’t argue with me?”

“You were clearly the one who accused me first.”

As they spoke, they started arguing again. As they argued, they became “intimate” again.

You slapped me, I slapped you.

[Barrage: “This pair is truly lively.”]

[Barrage: “Hahahahaha!”]

[Barrage: “So fun. Watching them love and kill each other is making me die laughing.”]

In the sky, Bo Jingshan tilted his head. “Is it all right to trick them like this? When we go back later, will they share the food with us?”

He Yu was very calm:

“It’s fine. I still have a way.”

They could trade information for it.

Even if they found nothing, they could make up some information to trade.

Bo Jingshan nodded, perfectly satisfied. Sure enough, acting together with He Yu was still more comfortable. He Yu gave people a great sense of security.

Unlike Ling Buchen, who relied entirely on luck.

And it was the kind of luck so good it made people jealous...

Wanrenzhan, hanging below, huffed angrily. “...Can’t you two look at me? There’s still a person down here. He Yu, you’re the single dog!”

The two people above ignored his roar.

--

Eugene and Gedai cursed and grumbled as they dug. He Yu and the other two leisurely flew in midair, examining the entire world. However, no matter which direction they came from or which direction they went, what they saw was still desolation. There was nothing at all.

Wanrenzhan, hanging below, said, “Love Planet is already extinct, right? There aren’t any living creatures at all, let alone humans.”

Bo Jingshan rarely agreed with him and nodded. “Now, there are probably only the ten of us on this planet. Is the purpose of this match to make the ten of us kill each other?”

He Yu looked at him and said meaningfully, “Five hundred years have passed. Most humans are probably dead, but the devil that was summoned... has not died.”

If the devil were dead, the rules could not have continued. The Love Planet rules were still here, which meant the devil was still alive.

Five hundred years. Such terrifying rules and disasters were enough to make an entire planet go extinct.

But that did not mean there were no living things.

Even if this was a slaughter instance, there could not be no boss.

The big boss of this round——the devil that had been summoned.

Bo Jingshan frowned. “A boss capable of playing an entire planet to death will probably be hard to deal with.”

He Yu: “The mission requirements didn’t say we had to fight the boss.”

He said faintly, “Right now, we are the devil’s toys. Only by complying with the devil’s rules do we have a chance of survival.”

——Only, he had become interested in the matter of the couple who summoned the devil five hundred years ago.

Unfortunately, everyone was dead. He did not know where else he could learn about what happened back then.

There was a Tree of Life on Love Planet. They still had not found it by now, and did not know whether it was dead or alive...

He Yu’s expression did not change, but the broom beneath his feet suddenly sped up. It continued forward. Bo Jingshan had far-reaching sight and stared attentively at the changes around them.

--

At the same time.

Qiong, who was thinking about whether to find people or find things, stopped walking. Her eyes fixed on the front, her gaze sharp.

And in front of her, Jun had a face full of surprise.

Clearly, he also had not expected to encounter a person, and a small woman at that.

As a contestant from the Federation Main Planet, Jun had an average relationship with contestants from Chaos Planet. They had almost no intersections. In fact, because of the lofty attitude of Main Planet contestants, they had grudges with many people from Chaos Planet.

Jun had killed quite a few Chaos Planet people before. How could he remember every single Chaos Planet contestant?

Both of them stopped walking forward and stood at a distance, watching each other. They had already heard Love Planet’s broadcast, but neither of them moved. No one even spoke. They were both sizing each other up.

After a long while, Jun finally said faintly, “District Three, Jun.”

Hearing this, Qiong pressed down the brim of her hat and nervously took a step back. “Chaos Planet, Qiong.”

Jun took everything in. His eyes flickered, the corner of his lips hooked into a smile, and he said softly, “We only have three minutes to choose. What do you think?”

Qiong pursed her lips and tried her best to keep calm. “Does what I think matter? We can only cooperate. Otherwise, Love Planet’s disaster package will descend on our heads.”

She seemed to be persuading Jun to cooperate. Although she looked calm, her fingers were twisting her clothes.

Jun narrowed his eyes. “Do you know what Love Planet’s disaster is?”

Qiong shook her head. “I don’t know, and I don’t want to know.”

The two continued looking at each other, both secretly sizing up the other. Then Jun smiled and said, “Fine. We’ll cooperate for twenty-four hours and safely get through this day first.”

Qiong nodded very quietly. She was extremely thin and small, and she was a girl. She easily made people lower their guard, and even made people feel——I can play her in the palm of my hand.

That was exactly what Jun thought.

He was even glad that the person he encountered was Qiong, and not Siya, that woman whose eyes were practically on top of her head. If it were Siya, then there really would be nothing to play with.

Jun’s eyes turned. He lifted his foot and slowly approached Qiong, smiling harmlessly. “I really admire powerful women. As a Chaos Planet contestant, it must not have been easy for you to make it this far, right? You do have some ability.”

Qiong did not speak. She only instinctively took a step back, seeming to want to keep her distance from him.

Jun walked closer and closer, and soon arrived in front of Qiong. “We’ll have to cooperate for twenty-four hours next. I hope we can cooperate happily. We can be a competent couple for this day.”

Qiong raised the brim of her hat slightly. When the brim was lowered, she looked like a tomboy. When the brim was lifted, she looked like a weak minor with no real ability. She frowned slightly, clearly somewhat worried. “You say your choice first?”

——She was afraid Jun would betray her.

Mockery flashed through Jun’s eyes, but his voice was full of helplessness. “Together. Let’s say ‘love each other’ together. Who would dare say it first?”

“Okay.” Qiong nodded and agreed.

The next second, the two spoke at the same time, without the slightest hesitation——

“Kill each other!”

Immediately, shock flashed through Jun’s eyes, but it only lasted a second before he instantly pounced toward Qiong. A sharp blade stabbed toward Qiong’s heart, his voice vicious——

“Bitch! You betrayed me. Everything just now was an act!”

He had never intended to cooperate with Qiong at all. He only wanted to scheme against Qiong. In particular, Qiong’s nervousness, unease, and weakness had all given him confidence that he could scheme against her.

In his eyes, such a Chaos Planet woman could be controlled with ease.

So he chose kill each other, preparing to kill Qiong.

But he never expected that Qiong would also choose kill each other. This woman had been deceiving him the whole time! Looking again at her cold eyes and completely unsurprised expression, it was enough to show——not only had it all been an act, she even knew that Jun would choose kill each other!

Her weakness and unease were all fake!

At the same time, Jun’s attack was blocked by a thread. His vision shook, and Qiong’s full aura erupted.

Jun’s pupils shrank. This woman was actually not weaker than him either!

He gritted his teeth. “You fucking schemed against me into choosing kill each other. Aren’t you afraid of dying?!”

“Crackle——”

At this moment, lightning was already flashing and thunder was rumbling. Two bolts of heavenly lightning struck down, landing straight on their bodies. The ground beneath their feet also began to burn hot, and acid rain poured down on them like water.

Jun screamed, his skin and flesh splitting open.

Qiong took advantage of this moment and, bracing herself against the heavenly lightning, forced the threads through Jun’s body!

Countless thin threads pierced through Jun. He lowered his head to look at the threads, then looked at Qiong, his face full of disbelief. At this moment, his body temperature began to fall, and his life value plummeted.

——Jun did not understand. Why was Qiong this strong?

Wasn’t she a Chaos Planet contestant? Why could she be this powerful?

Since she knew he was scheming against her, why did she not threaten him? Why did she instead withstand the lightning by force and kill him?

Jun did not understand.

Qiong’s eyes were icy cold. She let the rain beat against her face. Her raised right hand twisted the threads, and her voice was cold and bone-piercing, like ice. “Jun, there is no way I would trust you. During the sea selection, you betrayed your team, and at that time, you killed seven Dikui Chaos Planet contestants...”

Her hand pulled hard. The threads withdrew, blood sprayed, and her voice was faint. “I am avenging those seven people.”

Quite a few people from Dikui Chaos Planet had also joined the competition this time. No one knew that all the people from Dikui Chaos Planet who entered were serving Qiong, and she had a special way to know those people’s situations.

Their Dikui Chaos Planet contestants were united. Qiong could not possibly cooperate with Jun, who had betrayed Dikui Chaos Planet and killed seven Dikui Chaos Planet contestants.

From the moment they met, both of them wanted to kill each other.

——Only, Jun lost.

“Bang——” Jun fell, completely breathing his last. His eyes were wide open, dying with grievances unredressed.

Qiong was too lazy to look at him again. She only looked up at the dark clouds overhead and the pouring acid rain. She gritted her teeth and raised a middle finger. “Fuck! This Love Planet disaster is actually this hard to deal with!”

If not for her defense equipment, she probably would not have been able to hold out either.

Qiong looked at the transparent film close to her body, her face helpless. “This equipment doesn’t seem like it can last much longer either. Twenty-four hours... I’m done for. I killed one person and it looks like I’m going to fold myself in too...”

A loss. Too much of a loss.

Qiong’s face was full of conflict. She had absolutely no idea what she should do next.

Find someone?

Who could she cooperate with?

Just then, a broom rapidly swept across the sky.

Qiong’s eyes lit up. “He Yu!!”

——Although she had not seen it clearly, this had to be He Yu’s broom!

However, the broom flew straight past, without stopping at all. The people on it did not lower their heads to look at her once, completely ignoring her.

If they saw each other, they had to make a love choice.

But what if He Yu had not seen Qiong?

Qiong: “???”

She shouted with a torn heart and split lungs, “He Yu! It’s me, Qiong! Didn’t you say you sincerely wanted to cooperate with me? Did your sincerity get fed to the dogs?!”

The broom flew farther away.

Qiong: “...”

Back then, in the <Who Is Undercover> instance, the person He Yu invited had been Qiong. When he and Wanrenzhan forced her to leave, he had once said——

I am sincere toward you.

I hope we can still cooperate.

These were all things he had said personally back then!!

Had he not seen her? Or had he not heard her voice?

The broom was getting farther and farther away. If he could not hear her shout just now, then shouting again now probably would be useless.

But Qiong did not want to give up. She sorrowfully hammered the ground. “Hey! I can’t just die like this! I found an intelligent computer that can still barely be checked. There must be important clues about this planet inside! Wuwuwu, I can’t die.”

However, the moment her words landed, the broom she was certain “definitely could not hear her anymore” swiftly turned around high in the sky. It performed an extremely difficult one-hundred-and-eighty-degree rotation and raced toward her...

Qiong: “???”

——Fuck, He Yu’s sincerity had absolutely been fed to the dogs!!
