Battle Royale of the Sinners

Sun Fang glanced at his remaining lifespans in his system menu. Less than 60,000 years were remaining.

He hesitated if he should activate his Qi Shield, so he would be invulnerable to ambushes.

"If I were her, I would have ambushed us here."

Sun Fang looked around the shacks and the houses of the civilians in the county. As all peasants were asleep, only he and Li Jing ran around in the middle of the town.

Although it was pitch black at night, they could still sense their surroundings. Furthermore, they could also catch a glimpse of Hua Shi's presence further away inside the city.

Li Jing's eyes sharpened, "She's here! Get ready!"

Sun Fang took a deep breath and summoned his soul, [Patience]. His soul had the same appearance as his previous life, the bodyguard of Ping's family.

Patience flew forward toward the direction of Hua Shi's presence to probe her.

And Hua Shi took the bait.

[Diligence] and [Love] from Hua Shi flew at Sun Fang's soul with their glowing short sword. Both of them slashed at [Patience].

Surprised, Sun Fang pulled his soul backward. However, [Love] managed to connect the slash with [Patience]'s face, cutting from the forehead across his face toward his cheek on the other side.

A slant wound appeared on Sun Fang's real face as the cut injured his soul.

"Damn it! Qi Blast!"

An energy ball manifested before Sun Fang's soul and shot at [Love].

The soul with the appearance of a young nurse grinned. She braced the impact without defending herself.

*BOOM*

The energy ball exploded, but [Love] was unharmed!

*PU*

[Love]'s glowing knife stabbed into [Patience]'s chest!

Within Sun Fang's body, the same stab wound appeared as his soul received another injury. Blood from his veins flooded into the damaged lung, and the red liquid was pumped out of his respiratory system.

Sun Fang choked and spat a mouthful of blood. He screamed, "Jing'er, help!"

Li Jing stared at the souls of Hua Shi as if she saw ghosts. She recognized the appearances of these nurses.

It was her crush in her previous life, Sunday.

When Li Jing heard the scream of Sun Fang, she came back to her sense. Upon seeing the distressed look and the injuries, Li Jing's anger shot through the roof.

In Li Jing's last life, she did everything she could to save Hua Shi, but she was betrayed. Now, Hua Shi was about to kill her husband.

"SUNDAY!!"

Li Jing shouted as she summoned her virtuous soul, [Love]. It snatched Li Jing's sword from her belt and flew toward Sun Fang and Hua Shi's soul.

Ironically, the girls possessed the same virtue, yet their karma bound them together as enemies.

Al though Li Jing's [Love] tried to attack at Hua Shi's soul, she was stopped by Hua Shi's [Diligence].

"AHHHH!!"

Li Jing continued screaming as if she had gone mad. [Love] swung the sword without form, but it contained the aura of an immortal.

[Diligence] parried the sword with her short sword. Because her knife range was shorter, Hua Shi's soul could not find a chance to counter-attack.

On the other side, Sun Fang retreated as his injuries worsened for every second pass. He attempted to use his healing skill, but the wounds on his soul remained.

"Argh!"

Desperate, Sun Fang took out a medicine pill he concocted with his [Dao of Alchemy] skill. It was a pill listed in the system as a wind pill.

The detail stated that this pill could increase the speed of the consumer by 50% upon consumption, but his speed would be penalized by 50% when the effect of his medicine was over.

Sun Fang did not know how long this pill could last, but he threw it in his mouth anyway.

Once the pill was swallowed, it melted into his stomach, and Sun Fang could sense the change. This pill had a similar effect as Tong's overclock mode as it accelerated his perception. Everything became a slow-motion while Sun Fang could maintain his average speed.

A bullet-time activated!

Sun Fang's [Patience] managed to catch his breath and dodged another strike from [Love]'s knife. He countered her with his strongest punch to her guts.

*POEK*

[Love]'s body bent forward as she could feel the pain, which it stunned her.

.

Meanwhile, the master of these two souls, Hua Shi, had been hiding behind a shack.

The moment Sun Fang punched her, she was stunned and could not control her bowel.

*PLUEK*

Hua Shi vomited her last meal, and her concentration shook for a split second.

*SWUA*

[Diligence] got stabbed into her stomach by Li Jing's [Love]. The soul glared at Hua Shi's soul in resentment as she bellowed.

"SUNDAY! YOU WILL PAY!!"

In a panic and pain, Hua Shi unsummoned all of her souls. She activated her regeneration skill to heal her physical wounds, but she could not heal her soul.

Now, both Hua Shi and Sun Fang had soul injuries.

"YOU CAN'T HIDE!!"

Li Jing went into a frenzy as she traced Hua Shi's presence and ran to her hidden spot.

Seeing the pursuer, Hua Shi gritted her teeth. Although she could not remember who this person was, Hua Shi had a vague déjà vu feeling coming from this woman.

Using her brain, Hua Shi ran toward the open area in the town center. On this location, many night patrol guards gathered and drank in peace.

Hua Shi screamed, "Help!! Murderers!"

The guards turned to Hua Shi's direction in reflex. They grabbed their weapons and ran toward her.

Hua Shi abandoned her disguise and hid her weapons in her inventory. She ran to the guards like a helpless housewife.

Following behind Hua Shi, Li Jing and her soul screamed and kicked the ground, leaping at their target in full speed.

"A witch!"

"What!? A ghost!?"

The guards panicked, but they raised their spears to attack Li Jing.

"SCRAM"

Li Jing's soul ignored the attacks. She slashed the guards' neck as she flew after Hua Shi.

While Li Jing switched her focus to the guards, Hua Shi summoned a crude oil barrel and hurled it at Li Jing's main body.

*BANG*

The barrel hit Li Jing, but it did not break.

Li Jing shoved the barrel away. When she regained her sight on Hua Shi, she was drawing a bow in a full moon arc, aiming at Li Jing's main body.

40 Light arrows flew from Hua Shi's bow, locking on Li Jing's torso.

*PUEK*

*PUEK*

*PUEK*

*PUEK*

As Li Jing did not unsummon her soul and use her aura, her real body was still vulnerable to all system skills. All arrows struck into Li Jing's body, turning her frontal body into a reverse porcupine.

"Ah …"

Li Jing came back to her sense after she felt several cold arrowheads lodging into her chest and stomach. She fell on her back afterward.

"JING'ER!!"

Sun Fang screamed, fearing for the fate of his wife. Before he could get closer, Hua Shi already pointed her short sword on Li Jing's neck.

Looking at her from 50 meters away, Sun Fang noticed that Li Jing was still breathing.

Sun Fang glared at Hua Shi with hatred, "Let her go!"

Hua Shi spat the remaining digestive fluid inside her mouth. She sneered at Sun Fang, "I came here in peace, but you two wanted me dead. This is what you get!"

"We won't go after you anymore. Please, let her go."

Sun Fang was desperate. As a former virgin with no experience in relationship, Li Jing was his first wife and first love in two lives. As such, his mentality and thought centered on Li Jing's existence.

He could not afford to lose her here.

On the other hand, Hua Shi clenched her stomach. The physical wound had been healed, but the lingering pain was still there. She could sense that both her souls also retained the stabbed wound, and it did not show any sign of recovery any time soon.

With such injury, Hua Shi did not want to continue fighting or having any hostile otherworlder coming after her.

Killing Li Jing here would be ideal, but she would have to fight with Sun Fang next.

'Should I take both of them out, or should I take this girl as a hostage and kill her later?'

Hua Shi looked at the half-dead Li Jing on the ground. She was looking at Hua Shi in the eyes as she muttered, "Sunday …"

The owner of the name frowned. Upon closer inspection and recollection about Li Jing's soul and her appearance, Hua Shi recalled a bad memory in her previous life.

There was a sick female doctor that asked her out, but Hua Shi turned her down.

After that collapsed-hospital incident, she fed her human's flesh and blood instead of regular food and water.

Moreover, she killed a doctor, who was Hua Shi's crush and forced-feed his flesh to her.

When the rescue team found them, this mental girl was talking to herself, planning to kill Hua Shi and commit suicide.

"Ah, you're that psycho bitch."

The eyes of Li Jing shook. She raised her arm, trying to touch Hua Shi's face.

"I … still … love you."

"Sorry, I already have a husband and a child. If you reincarnate into a hot stud next life, maybe I'll give you a chance."

"Sunday …"

Realizing the identity of this half-dead woman, Hua Shi made a decision. It might be risky, but she had confidence that she could pull it off.
