The Taoist Boss Is Dominating The Horror World - Chapter 27

Qing Li returned to her room and, after taking a hot bath, fell asleep instantly.

There were two main things in her life: one was to swindle, eat, drink, and play; the other was sleeping.

Lying on the soft big bed, Qing Li slept deeply, not even the system’s broadcast could wake her up.

“The mission is starting, please prepare, player number 90.”

During her deep sleep, Qing Li’s ranking had changed.

“Mission countdown…”

“10”

…

“3”

“2”

“1”

…

In the enclosed white room, the six chosen players observed each other.

“It seems there’s no one else,” said a man with fox-like eyes, opening the conversation. He was handsome, with a deep and magnetic voice, instantly becoming the focus among them.

“You are…”

Zhou Ya looked at the man, her expression changing from shock to delight.

If she remembered correctly, this man was Wen Yi, ranked 14th in the live streaming room.

“Hello, I am Wen Yi, player number 14, I’ve completed 13 missions,” the man said, extending his hand with a charming smile.

“Hello, I am Zhou Ya, player number 70, I’ve completed 4 missions.”

Zhou Ya shook his hand in a daze, hardly believing her luck to be teamed up with a top-ranked player.

Hearing the man’s introduction, the other players were also shocked.

A man with his wrist in a cast introduced himself in a gruff voice: “I’m Chen Dalei, player number 43, I’ve completed 8 missions.”

Behind him stood a cute-looking girl who shyly said, “I’m Huang Lina, player number 66, I’ve completed 5 missions.”

“Ma Yue here, player number 87, I’ve completed one mission, please take me along, seniors!” Ma Yue, with his hair dyed in multiple colors, looked like a lively young man. He usually made videos waving his hands around, never expecting to be chosen for this thrilling live broadcast.

“I’m Wang Tingting, player number 79, I’ve completed two missions, please look after me,” said the last girl as she introduced herself.

“Three men and three women, it looks like this mission might require cooperation between male and female players,” Wen Yi analyzed, resting his finger on his chin, considering the gender and number of players.

Zhou Ya’s face flushed, ready to suggest forming a team, but she was preempted by player number 66, Huang Lina, who asked, “Can I team up with Brother Wen Yi? Don’t worry, I won’t hold you back.”

“Of course,” Wen Yi said with a smile.

“Yay!” Huang Lina rejoiced with a cheer.

Beside her, Zhou Ya looked upset, having been ready to speak first, only to be beaten to it by Huang Lina.

“Then, can I team up with Brother Da Lei?” Zhou Ya asked, settling for player number 43, Chen Dalei.

Despite his arm being in a cast, Chen Dalei was a strong player who had completed eight missions. He was, in any case, preferable to the inferior option she had.

Unexpectedly, Chen Dalei bluntly refused, “You’re too ugly, I’m teaming up with number 79.”

Zhou Ya’s already upset expression worsened!

Wang Tingting didn’t speak but stood behind Chen Dalei, implying they were teaming up.

That left Ma Yue, unwanted by anyone. He said cheerfully, “It seems we’re both without a team, let’s pair up.”

Zhou Ya: “…”

The teams were temporarily formed, and they began waiting for the blood-red words to appear on the wall.

But then, a white light flashed in the enclosed room, leaving the players astonished.

A woman lay sprawled on the floor, her eyes closed and a trail of drool at her mouth. Her thin nightgown clung to her skin, outlining her slender figure.

“Welcome player number 90.”

The system’s announcement was deafening, but the woman on the floor continued to sleep soundly, oblivious to her surroundings.

[“Hey, what’s up with the village girl? Why won’t she get up?”]

[“After my careful observation, coupled with Pythagorean theorem and trigonometric calculations, and analyzing quantum diversification and the strength of excavators—I conclude the village girl is asleep!”]

[“Some people really go to any length to increase their word count, huh.”]

[“Village girl, wake up, someone’s stealing your money!”]

[“Village girl, wake up, someone’s giving you money!”]

The audience in the live broadcast room began to wake up the service.

“Is it her?”

Chen Dalei, with his wrist in a cast, saw Qing Li for the first time, his eyes dark and brooding.

This wretch who had broken his wrist was also participating in this mission. He smiled cruelly, tiptoeing towards Qing Li, his other hand clenched into a fist.

“Hey, Number 90, wake up.”

As a precaution, he called out to test her. If this wretch didn’t react, he would smash her head with a punch.

To avenge his lost dignity and broken wrist.

“What do you want?”

Qing Li on the floor suddenly opened her eyes, her black, hollow eyes like a bottomless abyss, gazing eerily at Chen Dalei.

Chen Dalei’s dark face instantly turned pale, sweating profusely and stammering, “The… the floor is cold, be careful… of catching a cold.”

?Don’t trust him, village girl. This man clenched his fist just now, obviously planning to ambush you.?

?This man is no good, I’ve seen his live streams, he often betrays his teammates, a real schemer.?

?Seeing how cowardly he is after the village girl wakes up, I doubt his wrist was broken by her.?

The live broadcast room’s audience discerned the truth.

Qing Li certainly didn’t believe the man’s words. Although she slept like a dead pig, she would wake up instantly if she sensed danger.

Seeing the man’s guilty desire to retreat, Qing Li didn’t hesitate and punched him in the cheek.

“Boom—”

Chen Dalei flew up and hit the white wall, making a dull sound.

“Wow, what a fierce woman,” exclaimed the rainbow-haired Ma Yue, startled and quickly hiding away.

“You… you… why did you hit me?” Chen Dalei, with two teeth broken, eyes filled with hatred, spat out a mouthful of blood.

Qing Li rubbed her tired eyes and said with a smile, “You woke me from my sleep.”

Chen Dalei shivered coldly, too aggrieved to speak.

“No. 90, No. 43 was just trying to wake you up kindly. Why did you hit him?”

Zhou Ya stepped forward, looking at Qing Li with slight reproach in her voice.

“Whether it’s kindness or malice, I don’t think you get to decide,” Qing Li said, her eyes narrowing as she looked down at Chen Dalei with a threatening gaze.

Despite having experienced eight live broadcasts, Chen Dalei was terrified in Qing Li’s presence, shaking his head rapidly and stammering, “I had ill intentions, I’m a scoundrel, a beast. Please, madam, forgive my pettiness, spare me!”

“See, he admits he had ill intentions,” Qing Li said, arms crossed, raising an eyebrow.

Zhou Ya, who wanted to stir up trouble, bit her lip in frustration and remained silent.
