The Taoist Boss Is Dominating The Horror World - Chapter 28
“Hehe, little sister, you’re quite strong.”
Wen Yi, who had been silent, suddenly laughed.
Qing Li turned her gaze to him, her brows furrowing. Despite his handsome appearance, his face emanated a dark aura, and his business with bad karma made it clear he was no good.
Especially his fox-like, upturned eyes, which looked at Qing Li with aggression, were unlikable.
?Every time the village girl sees a handsome man, she spaces out. I seriously doubt she’s a sucker for looks.?
?This man is the 14th ranked Wen Yi, one of the best-looking male players in the live broadcast.?
?I think he looks too unmanly, not as good as the sixth-ranked Mo Ting.?
?In my opinion, none compare to Dr. Chu. I look forward to seeing him return in this task.?
?Beauty is a double-edged sword; village girl, don’t be fooled by good looks. This man is no good. He loves to toy with women’s feelings, causing them to become jealous and even fight each other to the death.?
Seeing Qing Li staring at his face, Wen Yi’s smile deepened. He deliberately leaned in close, his lips just inches from Qing Li’s ear, and said in a seductive tone, “Little sister, I know I’m handsome, but you don’t have to be so stunned.”
Qing Li’s hair stood on end, and she silently distanced herself from Wen Yi, then said seriously, “Mr. Self-proclaimed Handsome, do you often suffer from chest tightness, bloating, a yellow, bitter tongue coating, and poor digestion?”
Wen Yi was taken aback and nodded, “You’re right.”
After speaking, he revealed an even more charming smile and said softly, “Little sister, are you studying traditional Chinese medicine? You’re so accurate in your observation; I’m even more interested in you now.”
“I’m not a medical student; it’s just that your bad breath is really strong.” Qing Li blinked her eyes and spoke earnestly.
Wen Yi’s smile instantly froze, clearly not expecting such a reply from Qing Li.
The atmosphere around them quieted down, and the players all stared with wide eyes at this outspoken and naive woman.
Qing Li patted Wen Yi’s shoulder, and seeing his gloomy face, she comforted him, “Big brother, don’t worry. Although you have serious bad breath, you are handsome. As long as you keep your mouth shut and act like a mute, there will still be many girls who like you.”
Wen Yi: “… I think you’re the one who should keep quiet and be mute!”
For the first time, the man who was usually successful in love affairs felt at a loss in front of a woman. His narrow, fox-like eyes squinted, hiding a dangerous glint.
Very well, he would remember this woman named Qing Li.
?Hahaha, our little village girl is as direct as ever, driving people crazy with her words.?
?Don’t say it like that. Maybe Number 14 really does have severe bad breath? Our little village girl is also kind-hearted, and she’s just trying to remind him.?
?Ah, right, right, right. Today is also the day our little village girl does good deeds, touching everyone in the live broadcast room.?
?Our little village girl is truly kind-hearted, willing to risk offending others just to point out their illness. She’s truly considerate of patients, worthy of being a hospital owner.?
Qing Li glanced at the barrage in the live broadcast room and secretly rolled her eyes.
Guys, you’re overdoing it with the drama!
At that moment, fresh red blood began to seep through the pristine white walls, immediately drawing everyone’s attention.
The task was about to begin.
The blood seemed to come alive, forming sentence after sentence of shocking words. The expressions of all the players were solemn, each also worried about their own fate.
——
In the dim light, her eyes were so enchanting, making me want to forever drown in her gentleness.
As we whispered sweet nothings, I felt her warm breath and soft lips.
Oh heavens, for her, I would give everything, even my life.
“Her smooth, delicate skin, her charming and lovely face, her voice gentle to the bone, her exquisite and well-proportioned body.
I was tightly wrapped by her, never to part in this life.
Good night, sweet dreams.
——
The message in blood ends, and a large swath of blood dyes the wall red. The next second, everyone appears in front of an old building.
Qing Li looked up at the building in front of her. The exterior walls were mottled with gray, and the white paint was largely peeled off, revealing the gray cement underneath.
At the top of the building, a few wires of the neon-lit LED sign were faulty. What should have been ‘Golden Island Hotel’ now appeared distorted or incomplete.
In front of the hotel’s main entrance was a deserted pool, with its silt dried up. A carp could faintly be seen, dried in the sun with its white belly turned up and its eyes bulging as if it refused to close even in death.
The place was desolate and quiet, with no one around. The sunlight was bright, but the hotel gave off a sinister and eerie vibe.
‘Buzz buzz buzz—’
The electronic watch on her wrist vibrated. Qing Li raised her wrist to check the task for this time.
Game name: The Man-EatingHotel.
Game location: Golden Island Hotel.
Danger level: 4 stars.
Task: Please stay in the hotel for three nights.
Tip 1: This is a themed hotel for couples. The hotel only accommodates male and female guests together; one cannot stay alone.
Tip 2: Encrypted (Unlocked with 50,000 popularity points)
Tip 3: Encrypted (Unlocked with 100,000 popularity points)
‘The Man-Eating Hotel’, the name of this task sent shivers down everyone’s spine.
“Wen Yi, you’re really amazing. Just like you guessed, this task indeed requires male and female players to team up.”
Huang Lina leaned close to Wen Yi. She had a sweet and charming appearance, especially her eyes, which were watery like springs, easily arousing a protective instinct.
“But we have seven people, what about the extra one?” Wang Tingting said, her eyes glancing towards Qing Li.
After all, they had already formed teams in the white room, and Qing Li, the extra player, had become a redundant presence.
Chen Dalei took a step back. He would rather die immediately in the game than team up with this violent maniac.
Rainbow-haired Ma Yue glanced at Qing Li, hesitating.
Staying overnight in a hotel with a female player was like giving out perks in the livestream.
He didn’t want to share a room with Zhou Ya, a woman of plain appearance. In contrast, this young girl in pajamas, with her innocent looks, was more to his taste.
Zhou Ya noticed the change in Ma Yue’s eyes and felt a sense of foreboding.
What would she do if Ma Yue teamed up with Qing Li?
Breaking the live stream’s rules meant failing the mission.
She… didn’t want to die.
“Qing Li, we’ve already formed teams in advance. You’re too late, it seems you’ll have to stay in the hotel by yourself!” Zhou Ya spoke up first, not giving Ma Yue a chance to speak.
“It’s because we didn’t know there would be a seventh player that we formed teams in advance. I think we can choose again,” Wen Yi suddenly said.
The man squinted his eyes, like a cunning fox, unabashedly sizing up Qing Li, his gaze filled with unbridled aggression.
As if warning her: Your fate is in my hands, you’d better recognize your place, don’t be ungrateful.
