Trouble Next Time, Be Gentler

"Trust me, quick!"

Ning Yu summoned her last bit of strength and called out to her.

"I... Ah!!"

Shen Yiyue couldn't hesitate anymore. She closed her eyes and thrust the broken blade forward into Ning Yu's back with all her might.

"Squelch!"

The blade penetrated completely through Ning Yu's back, its tip emerging from her lower abdomen.

More blood gushed out, but it immediately seemed to be drawn by some attractive force, gathering towards the Crimson War Blade.

Ning Yu clearly felt the system's prompts accelerating again.

Only then did Shen Yiyue open her eyes, seeing Ning Yu's pale expression.

She was squinting through the pain, giving her a smile:

"Well... well done..."

"Just... damn it... next time be gentler... actually... you didn't need to stab all the way through..."

She had indeed been a bit too excited, seemingly using too much force.

Seeing that Ning Yu still had the spirit to joke with her, Shen Yiyue collapsed to the ground:

"Yu'er, will you really be okay? Don't lie to me..."

Looking at this fool who seemed like she would rather take these two stab wounds herself, Ning Yu reached out her hand and managed to pat her head:

"I'll be fine, you'll see in a moment..."

Ning Yu turned her gaze back toward Wu Di in the distance.

"Now let's see how long he can hold out."

Shen Yiyue also turned her attention to Wu Di's direction.

He had already rushed to Wrath's side, and Wrath had clearly noticed Wu Di.

They both knew Wu Di was very strong, but neither knew just how powerful his abilities could be.

Wrath didn't seem to want to bother much with Wu Di, casually sweeping its hand as if brushing away trash, while Wu Di raised his hand and pushed back with force.

Wrath suddenly looked at the ground in surprise - he had actually managed to block its sweep with both hands!

Then he pushed up with force, actually managing to flip its hand back.

Both Ning Yu and Shen Yiyue were surprised, not expecting Wu Di's strength to have reached such a level.

Wrath clearly hadn't expected this seemingly small insect to possess such tremendous power.

It stopped its assault on the bus, withdrawing the foot it was about to stomp down again, and turned to face Wu Di.

Wu Di wasn't just wearing iron gauntlets; his entire body was covered in armor.

He raised his right hand, palm up, and beckoned with his four fingers except the thumb - a classic taunt.

Wrath understood Wu Di's meaning. Its eyes suddenly widened, the terrifying muscles on its body suddenly tensing up as it drew back its arm.

Then it threw a devastating punch at Wu Di!

This strike was far more powerful than the casual sweep from before.

Wu Di crossed his arms and quickly brought them up to defend, clashing with Wrath's space-rending punch.

The difference in power became apparent - even with Origin Awakening abilities, a mortal body still seemed unable to match such a monster.

Wu Di was continuously forced backward by the impact, his body sliding across the ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

But he didn't fall, and his arms remained in their defensive position.

Just as Wrath was about to continue crushing the scattered remains of the truck, where Ji Mengyao had already died countless times.

But suddenly there was a "thud" as Wu Di charged forward, then jumped back to their previous fighting position, landing on the ground.

Wrath turned its head at the sound, finding this insect had returned.

Wu Di raised his hand again, beckoning with those four fingers, continuing his provocation.

His frame compared to Wrath's mountain-like body was like a mere stone at the foot of Mount Tai, yet somehow he looked so reliable at this moment.

"ROAR!!!"

It hadn't expected Wu Di to be so annoying. With a roar, it temporarily abandoned Ji Mengyao and turned to charge at Wu Di.

"BOOM!"

"BOOM!"

This time it used both fists, exchanging blow after blow with Wu Di's fists.

One hit, another, and another - the iron armor on Wu Di's body had started to crack, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Though he met each strike with amazing strength against Wrath, his body seemed to be reaching its limit.

He was just gritting his teeth and enduring.

There was movement on Ning Yu's side as well - the broken Crimson War Blade stuck in her body suddenly began to tremble, emitting its familiar brilliant red light.

[Task: Day of Blade Reforging progress updated 89%]

[Task: Day of Blade Reforging progress updated 90%]

A wind from somewhere unknown began to blow, making Ning Yu's beautiful silver hair dance wildly.

Her amber eyes began to regain their familiar bloodred hue.

Ning Yu's life was now approaching its end; the Crimson War Blade had absorbed too much of her blood at once, and she was about to lose consciousness completely.

Invisible energy seemed to surround her, causing the dust on the ground to ripple outward in circles.

Under the truck's wreckage, Ji Mengyao revived again, barely crawling out from the steel ruins and struggling to stand.

She had almost become completely covered in blood, and the tide of hallucinations was about to engulf her as she leaned against the wreckage to support herself.

Wrath suddenly turned its head toward Ning Yu, sensing extremely dangerous energy from her.

It kicked Wu Di aside with one foot, then turned and began charging toward Ning Yu.

Shen Yiyue noticed Wrath's movement and suddenly stood in front of Ning Yu, shielding her.

Ning Yu, with only hazy consciousness remaining, barely made out Shen Yiyue's action and felt a strange sense of familiarity:

It was just like that day in the small supermarket when they first met, when Shen Yiyue had stood in front of her like this, wanting to protect her.

This girl... hasn't changed at all...

"No, Wu Di!!! Don't..."

"Don't use your ability!!!"

Ji Mengyao, who had just crawled out of the ruins, suddenly let out a sharp scream toward Wu Di.

Her voice was incredibly sharp and intense, as if using all the strength left in her body, her face full of panic.

The charging Wrath suddenly felt its leg catch on something, as if grabbed by some powerful force, and found itself unable to move for a moment.

How was this possible?

It looked back to see Wu Di's skin had turned completely red, with large amounts of white steam seeming to pour from his body.

His eyes had lost all color except white.

"Urgh... AHHHHH!!!!"

Wu Di let out a roar and actually grabbed Wrath's leg, forcibly dragging it backward.

A mortal body rivaling divinity.

What happened next was jaw-dropping:

His entire body twisted, the iron armor completely shattering and falling around him, the force of his movement beyond description.

Wrath's enormous body was actually lifted by Wu Di, who executed a shoulder throw, hurling it heavily away from Ning Yu's direction!

"BOOM!!!"

Its terrifying body was slammed into the ground, creating a massive crater.

Dust flew everywhere as the earth trembled!

After using this move, Wu Di was completely overloaded, his body falling straight forward.

The redness began to fade from his skin.

But he had bought enough time for Ning Yu.

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
