The three most uncomfortable things in the world are:

1. Parting of life and death.

2. Love that cannot be.

3. Getting up early for work.

Now, Qiao Yu was about to add one more thing to that list: when you painstakingly grind through a dungeon only to reach the final checkpoint,

and then the system tells you, "Oops, we encountered an error. Please clear the dungeon again."

Was Qiao Yu going to listen to the system? Of course not. He charged straight at Xun Dong, who had transformed into a giant spider.

Xun Dong also spotted Qiao Yu. Her two sharp forelegs vibrated rapidly as she thrust them down at Qiao Yu.

Qiao Yu dodged Xun Dong's attack with a donkey roll, the spider leg grazing his scalp and taking a strand of hair with it, making it look incredibly dangerous.

"Yu-ge, don't be such a fool! That monster has high attack and high agility. You definitely can't beat it! Don't go throwing your life away!"

Yang Xiangdi stomped his feet anxiously on the side, unable to abandon Qiao Yu and run.

Having just rolled on the ground, Qiao Yu vaguely heard only the last part of his words, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

"What? Don't be a wimp?"

Qiao Yu turned his head and stared intently at Xun Dong's massive body. Her eight spider legs, like blades of black lacquer, easily pierced the ground, razor-sharp.

A hundred points of agility also meant that Xun Dong definitely possessed incredibly fast speed. With only 9 points of agility, Qiao Yu had no chance of fighting Xun Dong at range.

Right now, the only possibility for him to defeat Xun Dong seemed to be exactly what Yang Xiangdi had said: don't be a wimp!

So Yang Xiangdi was reminding him! He had already seen the way to defeat Xun Dong! Qiao Yu gave Yang Xiangdi a thumbs up!

"Don't worry, Xiangdi, I won't be a wimp! Thanks for the reminder!"

Yang Xiangdi: "........"

What did I remind you of?

Amidst the others' confusion, Qiao Yu charged towards Xun Dong like a moth to a flame.

*Pfft pfft!*

Xun Dong showed no mercy either, her two sharp forelegs instantly piercing Qiao Yu's body.

"-124"

"-124"

Two bright red numbers instantly appeared above Qiao Yu's head.

"Phew! Good thing I have a thick health bar, or I really wouldn't be able to beat this monster!"

Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then slammed two punches into Xun Dong's body. He had experience with close-quarters combat with humans, but close-quarters combat with spiders was definitely a first for Qiao Yu.

"-196"

"-196"

Seeing himself lose nearly four hundred health points in an instant, the spider-transformed Xun Dong revealed a hint of human-like fear in his eyes.

He was only level eight, so how could his damage be higher than hers! Was she the boss, or was he the boss?

System, aren't you going to do something about this? Compared to her, he was truly the unknown error!

"Wait!"

Xun Dong suddenly thought of a possibility. She opened her large mouth filled with sharp teeth and asked Qiao Yu,

"Could it be that you're also from Bai Ze's side?"

Only Bai Ze could possibly create a monster like Qiao Yu. After all, she was also created by Bai Ze.

"Bai Ze? I'm more like a Taotie, go to hell!"

Qiao Yu ignored Xun Dong's words. Right now, only the three words Yang Xiangdi had said were on his mind: don't be a wimp!

"Kill!"

Qiao Yu clenched his fists and kept hitting Xun Dong.

Forced to retaliate, Xun Dong began to attack while explaining.

"Stop! Listen to me, if you're also from Bai Ze's side, then we're not enemies!"

"I'm not listening, I'm not listening, I'm just not listening!"

Xun Dong: .......

What was with this inexplicable lovers' quarrel atmosphere?

"Lue Xing Kuang Bao (Plundering Frenzy)!"

"Ju Du Zhi Zhe (Venomous Sting)!"

Seeing that Qiao Yu was unwilling to communicate with her, Xun Dong became ruthless and activated her skills, revealing her violent side.

Her eight sharp legs frantically thrust forward, aiming for all the vital points on Qiao Yu's body.

Qiao Yu didn't dodge or avoid, not caring at all that his body was being pierced by Xun Dong's spider legs. Several large, see-through holes had already been poked in his body.

If it wasn't for the Great Strength Contract providing him with an extra thousand or so health points, he wouldn't have enough lives even if he had ten.

*Pfft pfft!*

*Bang bang!*

*Pfft pfft!*

*Bang bang!*

Both sides fought with fury, exchanging injury for injury with every punch and every leg.

This brutal fighting style would only stop when one of them was completely dead!

"Just what is this kid, why isn't he dying yet!"

Unable to see Qiao Yu's health bar, Xun Dong became more and more alarmed as she fought.

Why was it that the man in front of her not only had a higher attack power than her, but his health bar seemed to be endless, with no sign of fatigue at all.

In contrast, she only had 236 health points left!

"No, you can't kill me! If you kill me, Bai Ze won't let you off!" Xun Dong threatened, her voice shrill.

At this moment, Qiao Yu also only had 220 health points left. Xun Dong only needed to get angry and hit him twice more to take him down.

But Qiao Yu wasn't panicked at all. His face was indifferent, as if he still had two thousand health points.

His arms trembled slightly from the frantic punches, and it was already difficult for him to unleash a full-strength punch.

"Oh? Is that so? Then do you know who I am to Bai Ze?" Qiao Yu took the opportunity to put his arms behind his back, his face calm and unconcerned.

"You...you are?" Xun Dong's eyes were full of suspicion and uncertainty.

Qiao Yu's performance was too terrifying. Apart from Bai Ze's members, she really couldn't think of any other players who could be so perverted.

"Just a friendly reminder, my name is Qiao Yu."

"Qiao Yu...surname Qiao, could it be! Could it be that you are that lord..." Xun Dong's face was filled with shock.

Before Xun Dong could continue speaking, Qiao Yu directly interrupted her!

"You fell for it!"

A look of triumphant joy appeared on Qiao Yu's face, his arms having fully recovered by now.

Qiao Yu clenched his fists and shouted,

"Qu Ren Zhi Wei (Awe of Subjugation)!"

Immediately afterwards, two punches slammed into Xun Dong's body, instantly reducing her health points to zero!

Until her body slowly dissipated, Xun Dong's face was filled with endless doubt.

He...if his surname was Qiao, shouldn't he be a descendant of that lord? Then why did he kill her? Why? Why the hell?

Xun Dong turned into a soul core with endless doubts in her mind.

"Yang Xiangdi! What a great brother, if you hadn't reminded me not to be a wimp, I really wouldn't have been able to beat Xun Dong!"

Qiao Yu ran back to Yang Xiangdi and the others with a happy face, the ten or so holes that Xun Dong had poked in his body still spurting blood, making him look incredibly frightening.

"Um... Yu-ge, actually, what I said just now was don't throw your life away........"
