Chapter 312: Chapter 336, Where is the Way?

Fang Yi’s sprinting was as fast as lightning, pushing his Divine Travel Steps to the extreme.

Even with Wei Rui’s precise shooting, it was impossible to hit Fang Yi while he was moving at such high speed.

This was Fang Yi’s absolute confidence; he already knew Wei Rui’s strength was that of the Blood Dragon Guard, actually only between Human Level four and six. Although that was strong for others, it was still no threat to Fang Yi.

Perhaps the old Fang Yi would have been afraid, but the current Fang Yi felt no pressure at all.

Fang Yi ran around Chu Qianqian as the center, his lightning-fast speed infuriated Wei Rui, because even under such gunfire, the opponent could not stop.

In rage, Wei Rui, who absolutely believed in his own marksmanship, lost the ability to stay rational and calm due to Fang Yi’s high-speed movements and his own burning anger. From this perspective, the advantage was tilting towards Fang Yi.

However, that was just on the surface; Fang Yi still had concerns since Chu Qianqian was in Wei Rui’s hands. Wei Rui was constantly around her, clearly grasping Fang Yi’s vulnerability.

The gunfire stopped eventually; Wei Rui pulled the trigger repeatedly, but it only clicked empty—there were no bullets left. It was then that Wei Rui finally calmed down.

Wei Rui threw down his automatic rifle and drew a military knife from his leg, placing it against Chu Qianqian’s delicate neck.

Fang Yi stopped.

Seeing Fang Yi stop, Wei Rui revealed a triumphant smile, his face twisted as he sneered, "Run! Kid, weren’t you good at running? Keep running!"

Fang Yi responded indifferently, "It seems I’ve made you angry."

Wei Rui grinned ferociously, "Correct, you indeed made me angry."

Fang Yi raised his hands, "Okay, I surrender. You release her, and I’ll be your hostage."

Wei Rui sneered, "Kid, do you think I’m an idiot to be so easily fooled? You’re too cunning. You managed to deal with Fang Mutian and Song Ya. Kid, I must admit, I underestimated you, but this is where it ends."

"Okay, I give up." Fang Yi replied crisply. With Chu Qianqian as leverage in Wei Rui’s hands, Fang Yi felt constrained.

Although Fang Yi had not known Chu Qianqian for long, just a few days, this girl had given him an extraordinary feeling. Her vitality and innocence deeply moved Fang Yi.

In his heart, Fang Yi already regarded Chu Qianqian as a little sister.

Thus, Fang Yi could choose to surrender; he wouldn’t risk reckless bravery.

A cold and crazed look shone in Wei Rui’s eyes as he said chillingly, "Kid, I’ve already lost this time. I realize that whether I win or lose, I can’t stay in Dragon Team anymore."

Fang Yi raised an eyebrow, feeling a sinking sensation. Wei Rui was opening up and feeling despair. Facing an enemy with hope is not frightening, but facing one filled with despair is absolutely terrifying.

Because once a person loses hope and harbors only despair, they are capable of doing anything.

Fang Yi slightly frowned, staring at the crazed Wei Rui, and said, "Fine, let’s lay it out then, what exactly do you want?"

"What do I want?"

Wei Rui sneered and said, "I want you to live a life worse than death! I want to cripple you, make you live in despair for your entire life, then destroy this girl. I want you to live with guilt and hatred for the rest of your life, kid, go to hell!"

The next moment, Wei Rui put away his military knife, drew a handgun from his waist holster.

The dark muzzle was pointed at Fang Yi.

Wei Rui’s index finger rested on the trigger, his lips curving into a cold, ferocious smile.

Almost in an instant, a graceful figure lunged from behind.

The next moment, Fang Yi moved too!

Everything happened in an instant.

Bai Rou and Wei Rui fought together, she tried to snatch the pistol away, but after all Wei Rui was a Dragon Team instructor and had the strength of Blood Dragon Guard, Bai Rou was still inferior...

Bang!

A gunshot rang out.

A pained expression appeared on Bai Rou’s beautiful face, she grunted as fresh blood flowed from her arm.

"Damn it! You stinking woman, I’ll kill you!" Wei Rui was extremely enraged, his face contorted as he broke free and aimed his gun at Bai Rou.

Now, Wei Rui had reached the peak of madness.

However, at that moment, a voice tinged with coldness sounded by Wei Rui’s ear.

"You should be the one to die."

Pfft!

A military knife was plunged into Wei Rui’s back, burying deep into his flesh, blood splattered.

Wei Rui’s body tensed up, then trembled briefly, his finger loosening from the trigger as the pistol dropped to the ground.

Wei Rui really wanted to turn around, but that feeling of powerlessness, made it impossible for him.

Fang Yi stood behind Wei Rui, releasing his grip from the knife handle, he leaned down and whispered in Wei Rui’s ear, "Go to Hell in peace."

Wei Rui’s eyes widened, rolling back like those of a dead fish, and ultimately, he was devoid of life. Fang Yi had stabbed the military knife into Wei Rui’s heart from his back; he was very familiar and skilled in the art of killing.

When Wei Rui fell, Fang Yi’s eyes briefly wandered aimlessly, seeing no more foes.

Bai Rou slowly stood up from the ground, her left hand covering her right arm where the bullet had hit, her beautiful face somewhat pale.

"I owe you a favor," Fang Yi said earnestly, his expression suggesting that if Bai Rou refused, he would fight her over it.

"Okay." Bai Rou didn’t refuse and accepted.

Then, Fang Yi untied Chu Qianqian from the tree, and she flung herself into Fang Yi’s embrace like a bird returning to its nest.

Fang Yi patted the girl’s head and softly said, "It’s all over now."

Yes, it was over.

Fang Mutian’s hands and feet tendons were severed by Fang Yi, Song Ya was nearly left with a "concussion" by Fang Yi; those numerous youths who had followed behind Wei Rui were all out of the game, and Wei Rui, a narrow-minded man, ultimately paid the price for his acerbic words.

However, Fang Yi’s heart felt no joy.

Not even a bit!

Only because that sudden "bad news" had drained Fang Yi of spirit, as if losing all purpose in his pursuit.

Fang Yi’s dream of living was to meet his parents from the time he could remember.

Yet, now his parents were dead, both buried, leaving Fang Yi desolate.

His dream shattered, now Fang Yi felt as hopeless as Wei Rui, filled with despair.

Thus, when Li Zhengnan and Chen Feng arrived and offered their praises and encouragement, Fang Yi’s heart did not flutter; it was very calm.

Once a person falls into despair, they might wish to continue falling.

In this moment filled with desolation, Fang Yi looked up at the clear blue sky and murmured to himself:

"My parents are dead, where is my path now?"
