"Director Hu, you seem to have forgotten a crucial person!"
"Please enlighten me, Miss Su." Director Hu asked, looking confused.
"That crucial person is... him." Su Yanke slowly walked towards Director Hu. Suddenly, she reached out and grabbed a dazed man beside him.
"A Cheng?" Director Hu asked in confusion. "What does he have to do with all this?"
"Who are you working for?" Su Yanke asked the man.
But the man remained in a daze and said nothing.
"Is... is there some misunderstanding, Miss Su?" Director Hu asked tentatively.
Su Yanke didn't answer, but reached out and stroked the back of the man's neck.
Yuan Hexiao watched Su Yanke's actions. His hand tightened unconsciously, and a flicker of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
Although everyone didn't know what Su Yanke was going to do, out of fear of her, no one stepped forward to stop her. They just stared blankly.
Su Yanke's hand paused at the man's neck. She noticed a slight change in the man's eyes. Su Yanke smiled faintly. She had found his weak point.
Su Yanke suddenly tightened her hand. Suddenly, the man moved and flashed dozens of meters away. Su Yanke was very quick. She jumped forward and kicked the man right on the head.
Su Yanke picked up the previously broken safety wire and tied him up tightly.
Director Hu was also startled. What was going on? Was that man really A Cheng just now? How could he do that?
"Tell me who you work for and why you did this!"
Since Su Yanke had already identified the person, she didn't want to waste any more time. She directly pinched his qi meridians. For any practitioner, the qi meridians were the foundation. Even those who were not afraid of death would be afraid of their qi meridians being severed. Sure enough, after a while, he confessed everything.
He was working for Li Xinchao. He was paid to make Su Yanke suffer. He had tampered with her safety wire, but she didn't use it. He thought he had taken the wrong one, so he switched it with Yan Ruoheng's. That was why Yan Ruoheng had the accident.
"Li Xinchao. Oh, so it's you. Well, there are always people who want to get hurt." Su Yanke said in an extremely gentle tone, but everyone felt the sweat on their heads dripping uncontrollably.
"I've told you everything. Can you spare me?"
"You've settled your score with me, but you haven't settled it with Yan Ruoheng yet! Take him away. Wait until Yan Ruoheng wakes up and see how he wants to deal with you!" Su Yanke stood up and ordered the people beside her.
Suddenly, a bright light flashed. "Wait." Su Yanke noticed that the light she had just seen was on the man's waist. She leaned in for a closer look and frowned.
It was a purple copper token. Its shape was strange. It was a style Su Yanke had never seen before. It looked like half an eye.
What attracted Su Yanke's attention was not its strange shape, but the terrifying evil aura.
It was the thing with the heaviest evil aura she had ever seen.
"Where did you get this?"
"This..." The man also looked confused.
Just then, the purple copper token in Su Yanke's hand suddenly rushed into the nearby cliff.
"Boom, boom, boom." Three loud noises. The nearby cliff collapsed.
"The cliff is collapsing! Everyone, run!" Su Yanke reacted the fastest and shouted.
The scene was filled with dust, making it hard for people to open their eyes. People ran around like headless chickens.
Su Yanke looked at the chaotic crowd. She took out the Sleep Spirit Pouch from her pocket. It was a golden thing the size of a fist, composed of two pyramids. Su Yanke pinched the middle of the Sleep Spirit Pouch, and the two pyramids moved.
They quickly inserted into the distant cliff. There was a rope behind the pyramids, forming an encirclement. "When you touch the rope, follow the smooth side of it."
Su Yanke watched as the crowd gradually became more orderly. But the collapse of the cliff was still continuing. At this speed, it would be very difficult for them to survive.
Su Yanke looked at the cliff and suddenly noticed a visible evil aura spreading rapidly. She thought of the purple copper token just now. It directly told her that there was something wrong with that thing. This cliff collapse might have been caused by it.
She had to go and take a look. Su Yanke moved and rushed towards the cliff. The people beside her saw Su Yanke rushing in. They shouted loudly, asking what she was doing and if she was crazy.
Su Yanke just left a sentence: "To save people."
Then she disappeared.
Director Hu stomped his feet anxiously beside him. He wanted to ask Yuan Hexiao what to do. But when he turned around, he found that Yuan Hexiao was also gone. He was so anxious that his vision went black and he fainted.
As soon as Su Yanke reached the edge of the cliff, she indeed saw a place in the center of the cliff with an extremely heavy evil aura. The evil aura was still continuously spreading out.
Su Yanke wanted to activate her dantian to create a protective barrier. As soon as she activated it, she found that the qi in her dantian was rotating dozens of more times. Su Yanke didn't know why this change had happened. A big rock fell from above her head.
Suddenly, something grabbed her waist. Her body bumped into a familiar scent.
"Be careful." A familiar voice came from above Su Yanke's head. Her heart immediately calmed down.
"You... Why are you here?"
"Just do what you want to do. I'll protect you." Yuan Hexiao was holding something that Su Yanke had never seen before. But it obviously had a good effect. Every time he fired a shot, a falling rock would shatter. The big rocks turned into a pile of small stones, reducing the danger.
Su Yanke didn't say anything. She knew that it was useless to say anything now. She should just hurry up and solve the problem.
Su Yanke turned to look at the middle of the cliff. She gathered her qi and took a big step forward, rushing upwards.
But the qi in her body was gradually being consumed. However, Su Yanke found that the evil aura was endless. It seemed to be able to produce continuously, as if it had a backup.
Thinking that Yuan Hexiao was still in danger, Su Yanke suddenly mobilized all the qi in her body. Finally, she reached the center of the cliff. Just then, a huge rock hit her back.
Su Yanke had no strength left to resist. Just then, Yuan Hexiao hugged her and took the fatal blow for her.
Yuan Hexiao's blood spurted out of his mouth. His body went limp. Su Yanke only felt her head buzzing. Her eyes were immediately blurred by tears.
"Yuan Hexiao, Yuan Hexiao, don't scare me. Wake up, wake up!"
Su Yanke's desperate cries were mercilessly drowned out in the cliff.
Cold. Endless cold surrounded Su Yanke. Just when Su Yanke was in despair, the purple copper token that she had just held in her hand emitted a purple light, surrounding them.
Su Yanke's mind gradually became confused.
After Su Yanke took the purple copper token in her hand, the collapse of the cliff soon stopped.
Not far away, Director Hu regained consciousness. Seeing the mess around him and thinking of what had happened before he fainted, he quickly asked the people around him if they had seen Su Yanke and Yuan Hexiao. But everyone said they hadn't.
Director Hu immediately collapsed. He shouted loudly, "Come on, go and look for them! Call for help! Dig three feet into the ground if you have to, but you must find them!!"
On the other side, Hou Yuheng walked absent-mindedly on the roadside. Just then, a motorcycle was coming from the opposite direction. The motorcycle driver seemed to be in a hurry and kept honking the horn at Hou Yuheng.
Hou Yuheng was startled. He lost his balance and was about to fall into the nearby pool. Just then, a pair of hands reached out and grabbed his arm.
After all, Hou Yuheng was a man. Zheng Qianqian couldn't hold him, but it still had some effect. They fell on the nearby haystack.
"It's just a breakup. What's so good about that Su Yanke? Why do you care so much about her!"
Zheng Qianqian's skin was scratched when she fell on the ground. The pain filled her mind. The temper that she had been suppressing all this time suddenly burst out.
Hou Yuheng was still lying on the ground, not reacting yet. When he heard Zheng Qianqian saying bad things about Su Yanke, he subconsciously retorted, "You're not allowed to say bad things about Su Yanke. She's the best. It's... It's my fault."
After shouting, Zheng Qianqian regained some of her senses. She also felt a little regretful about what she had just said. If Su Yanke heard it, thinking of what had happened to Chen Maohua before, her heart would panic.
But when she heard Hou Yuheng's subconscious defense of Su Yanke, all her fear was suddenly replaced by grievance.
"What is she to you? Why do you speak up for her like this?"
"I... I'm her friend. Yes, just a friend." Hou Yuheng's voice went from nervous and loud at first to desolate and soft at last.
Zheng Qianqian was also speechless. She wanted to say something else, but she felt as if something was blocking her throat and she couldn't speak.
Hou Yuheng, do you like her so much? But the more you like her, the more I hate her.
Why? It was me, Zheng Qianqian, who met you first. Since the first season of the dance show, she had fallen in love with him, but she couldn't say it.
Because her company required her to have a fake relationship with Li Xinchao. She couldn't refuse. She couldn't afford the huge liquidated damages. But she had never taken the fake relationship seriously. She had always kept a distance from Li Xinchao.
Just like this, in the last episode of the show, she learned the inside story of the show from Li Xinchao. She used her first time to please Li Xinchao in exchange for an internal quota for Hou Yuheng.
She always knew that Hou Yuheng loved dancing very much. He would definitely be very happy about this opportunity. She finally made up her mind to tell him this good news and confess her love to him after the show ended. But she didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Hou Yuheng actually fell in love with someone else. The quota she had paid a huge price for was so easily solved by Su Yanke?
She was not willing. She was very not willing. All her arrangements were ruined. Why did Su Yanke so easily take away what was precious to her? She hated her and loathed her.
She had even thought of the vicious idea of making her disappear.
