Chapter 733: Don’t Ask

Then he threw up blood and dropped to both knees.

Only then did he realize that he had been exposed to the freezing poisonous mist for over two minutes. The intense fight made him unable to hold his breath, which sped up the poison’s spreading and the weakening of his body.

His momentum interrupted, Gao Yang felt his body growing heavy like it had been injected with lead. And it was so cold, it was shaking so violently. This was the state he was in. It wasn’t something he could change by will alone.

Gao Yang wanted to stand up and fight, but he couldn’t muster any energy.

Psychic Armor deactivated.

He clenched his teeth and looked up with wide eyes filled with hatred, wrath, and frustration, glaring at Yan Liang’s mask.

I want to kill him.

The last time I wanted to kill someone so much was with Mad Red.

But I can’t do it.

I’m sorry. I’m really sorry. I pull every trick I have and strategize as best I can, fighting to the last second of my life.

Can I...go to hell with a smile now?

Yan Liang took two seconds to make sure that Gao Yang had actually reached his limit rather than acting weak to lure him close.

In fact, Yan Liang was quite surprised. Gao Yang should have collapsed thirty seconds ago. Even Yan Liang, who had come prepared, was struggling to endure the poisonous mist.

He raised his right hand with four fingers pressed together, aiming at Gao Yang from twenty meters away with Heartstealer.

Whoosh.

Suddenly, a cyclone strong enough to uproot a small tree came from the left, sending Yan Liang flying seven to eight meters away. He flipped to land on his feet.

Unable to control his body, Gao Yang fell and rolled on the ground.

Face pressed into the rough ground, Gao Yang did his best to open his eyes and saw a small familiar figure hovering above him.

“Captain!”

It was Can.

...

Two minutes ago.

Can rushed back from Let Life Be Beautiful like Summer Flowers with anticipation.

She got lucky. When she went to the higher floor of the flower shop while invisible, Heavenly Dog happened to be listening to music on the sofa.

Can handed him the slip of paper from Gao Yang. Heavenly Dog glanced at it and immediately went to the window, flying out. Can even got to hitchhike for a distance until she was halfway to the base.

After parting ways with Heavenly Dog, Can rode the wind. There was nothing she wanted more than to return to base sooner.

She had finished Captain’s mission for her. She wanted to be complimented, and she wanted Captain’s frown to smooth out a little. Things were going well. There was no reason to be overly worried.

Moreover, she wanted to get back in time for Yanyan’s birthday. Hopefully, the others would leave her a slice of the cake. She had picked the cake personally, and it was her favorite flavor.

While invisible, Can looked at the Starcatching Pavilion from afar. It would take only a few minutes for her to reach home.

Compelled by greater urgency, she sped up.

Then it happened.

A golden light shone on the left side of her face. Then a golden path shot through the night sky, connecting the Rongsheng Financial Building and the Starcatching Pavilion.

While Can was far away, the great disturbance still impacted her. She felt a forced resonation seize the energy in her body for a moment, and she tumbled once in the air.

Then boom! The Starcatching Pavilion exploded.

Just like Lithe Snake and Gray Bear, she was confused, shocked, and flabbergasted. Then an urgency and concern followed.

Captain! Everyone!

No, no!

At that moment, Can’s Invisibility reached level 6, and Gale reached level 5.

Can couldn’t afford to keep her Invisibility up. She tapped into her full energy to fly to the ruins that had been the Starcatching Pavilion.

When Can reached the neighborhood, the poisonous mist had already spread. Can sensed a slight chill and discomfort immediately.

She wasn’t so slow that she wouldn’t realize that it was the Qilin Guild’s doing. She held her breath and continued to hurry.

Then a cool wind entered her mind.

[Nine Frost: Go invisible.]

[Can: What happened...]

[Nine Frost: Go invisible!]

Can immediately did.

[Nine Frost: There’s no time to explain. Scatter the poisonous mist for as long as you can.]

[Can: Got it!]

While invisible, Can flew quickly to the source of the poisonous mist above the crumbled Starcatching Pavilion.

[Nine Frost: Lithe Snake, Gray Bear, go to the Starcatching Pavilion immediately for support.]

[Lithe Snake: Already on the way.]

[Gray Bear: Be right there!]

[Can: Good, you’re here too. How about everyone else? Are they okay?]

[Nine Frost: Don’t ask. Do your job.]

[Can: Understood!]

Can headed to the Starcatching Pavilion while invisible. The closer she got, the colder her chest felt.

There was no Starcatching Pavilion. There was no “everyone”. All that met the eyes were rubbles.

Tears welled up in Can’s eyes. She couldn’t stop it. When the explosion happened, she had considered the worst-case scenario, but she didn’t want to accept it. She stubbornly held onto hope.

Perhaps Captain was ready for it. Perhaps it was another one of those plans within another plan.

It’d be fine. Even when the danger was great, they always came out okay, right?

However, the reality was cold and merciless. Miracles didn’t happen often. And facing a catastrophe, all lives were equal.

Can’s heart plunged to the bottom of her chest. Then she saw Captain.

Thank heaven he’s still alive!

However, Gao Yang was struggling. He threw up blood and knelt on the ground covered in wounds. He could no longer fight.

Across from him was an old man in black clothes and a mask. He was raising his right hand at Gao Yang!

“Ah!”

Can didn’t even have the presence of mind to go invisible. She used all her energy to conjure a cyclone. It threw the old man off his feet and swept Gao Yang away, saving his life.

“Captain!”

Can rushed into the ruins, instinctively trying to save him first thing.

Nine Frost spoke up again in her head. While Nine Frost was pleased with her reaction, there was no time to compliment her.

[Nine Frost: Disperse the poisonous mist first! Or we’ll all die!]

[Can: Got it!]

Can tapped into her energy and flew up toward the source of the mist with Gale, raising his hands as her eyes glinted blue.

“Gale...”

Can was going to activate Gale when something flickered above her. While she hadn’t gotten a clear look, her instinct sounded a warning.

There was no time for her to get away. She balled her hands into fists and turned the energy that was about to form a cyclone into a translucent gale barrier, shielding herself.

Clink, clink, clink.

A second later, five three-meter elemental spears of different colors pierced through the barrier, each consisting of blue wind, cyan fire, purple lightning, white ice, and red light.

They pierced through the barrier but also got stuck, and Can had retreated in time to avoid the attacks.

Finally, Can saw her attacker. It was a skinny man with an ugly rainbow-colored fringe. He hovered above her with a disdainful and vicious expression.

Can curled her fingers to conjure gale blades for a counterattack, but then the five elemental spears stuck in her barrier softened and intertwined into a strange five-colored rope.

Sensing the wild energy resonation, Can cried out in panic in her mind.

Bam—
