Chu Yi opened his eyes and was greeted with the familiar sight of the players rushing from the raised platform. There was a phantom illusion of soreness from the two slender legs that were revealed. The injuries from before had disappeared but Chu Yi seemed to still feel a faint tingling in his chest.

He blinked his eyes slowly and looked around. New players covered in blood and wounds stood mindlessly on the platform. The other player, obviously veterans would hurry away, making a straight beeline for the oppressive, black tower that seemed to pierce the sky in the center of the city. 

Chu Yi lifted his head to the sky, the pure white clouds above were in direct contrast to the wind that cut like sharp blades brushing against his cheeks. It seemed that every time he arrived here, the sun only seemed to get brighter as if trying to hide the depression and gloom of the city.

He lifted his hand and glanced thoughtfully at his wrist. Unbeknownst to him, a pure black rose had been tattooed onto the pale skin. The petals of the rose seemed to carry a hit of crimson red on the tip obscured by a faint black shadow. There was no system notification about the tattoo but Chu Yi already had a hint about its origin. 

There was a flutter of birds overhead.

Just then, a sharp scream suddenly came from beside him as a man appeared with a flash of light on the platform. His body had been ripped in half leaving only the sprawling entrails of intestines and blood leaking from his torso. After sending him an indifferent gaze, Chu withdrew his stare. Such a scene was common in the city, unless the man had enough points for automatic healing, he would die here.

No-one stopped to give the dying man a second look and Chu Yi decided not to stay here any longer.

The beautiful man strolled through the dark city, eyes as dark as a crimson rose lifted lazily. The pure white skin glistened softly, like a ray of moonlight had condensed into his body. Those peach blossom eyes were slightly raised, clearly very indifferent, but because of the little redness stained at the corner of his eyes, some people's hearts were moved.

Ling Ci had brought a group of younger brothers today to meet with some of the B rank players to scout them into the next multiplayer instance being performed by a few top brasses in the organization. He didn't have many expectations for today but who would have thought his good luck would lead to him chancing upon such an immortal beauty. A lecherous and arrogant smirk appeared on his lips.

Even before he came to the Shuttle, he had been jailed several times for harassment of young school girls. The Shuttle only sought to release his urges even more wantonly and the foster of his bigger brother served to make him even more lawless. Although he was more interested in the soft bosom of women, he didn't mind changing tastes every once in a while.

The lustful beady eyes scanned the thin waist, unable to stop the wild imagination that sprung up in his mind.

"Hey! Beauty look here!"

Chu Yi's dark eyelashes looked up, Ling Ci had the delusion that those peach blossom eyes were looking at him affectionately, like an incomparably weak beauty. He adjusted the purple turban on his head, signaled something to his brothers, and walked over arrogantly.

Chu Yi furrowed his brows, annoyance leaking into the cool red eyes. The gaze the rough and tall man used to look at him was sickening, but before he could walk away, he lifted his head to see that he had been surrounded.

This was the posture of forcefully kidnapping and they were familiar with this routine. The bystanders quickly recognized this player. 

The younger brother of the voice precedent of the notorious Purple Turbans.

Ling Ce stood before the beauty and the more he looked, the more he liked him. None of the coquettish bitches that worked in the towers could compare to this man before him and although he tried to hide it, the increasingly heated gaze he used to look at Chu Yi betrayed his inner mind.

In a faux gentleman manner, he asked, "Beauty, what's your name?" 

Chu Yi stared coldly and didn't answer.

"My name is Ling Ci and these are my brother's." Deliberately adjusting the purple turban on his head, he licked his lips at Chu Yi.

"Beauty, I haven't seen you around so I'm assuming you are a rookie. It just so happens that I'm recently collected a new prop. I don't know if you heard about it but it's a high-grade prop that can be used to make up for one life. I see that you're so beautiful, why don't I give it to you."

The bystanders that were originally just eating melon seeds immediately changed faces. This prop was infamous among players.

A grin slowly spread on Chu Yi's face as if flattering.

Ling Ci felt complacent in his heart, and his speech couldn't help but speed up, "Beauty don't you know that it's dangerous being on the streets by yourself. Bad people are everywhere in this city and if you're not careful you'll be taken away and have indescribable things done to you."

Seeing the fluttering eyelashes gently blinking at him, Ling Ci suddenly did not want to wait anymore.

His brothers snickered maliciously and echoed his words. Ling Ci's grin grew wider. "Beauty, this big brother is only looking after you. Let this big brother take you away. You can live with me in my base and I'll make sure to take good care of you–"

The man didn't wait for Chu Yi to react before reaching out to grab his arm. Black eyes burst with a heavy excitement!

Coldness brewed in the depths of Zhu Yi's eyes, the hands at his side clenched slightly. In his palm, a dark red knife appeared!

The lecherous and wanton smile of Ling Ci's face froze, the cold and biting chill that spread from the metal pressed against his body made him shiver. Ling Ci's eyes widened shockingly.

"You–"

Chu Yi gently pressed the knife against his crotch, his voice whispered, incomparably sweet. "Ling Ci...have you ever been castrated."

Ling Ci's face turned green but from his mouth, only threatening words left.

"Do you know who you're playing with? Do you know who I am–"

Before he could finish speaking, the knife was pressed even harder onto his male root.

"Are you sure you want to keep talking?"

The man's lips twitched slightly.

Chu Yi tilted his head and smiled harder,

"Which one do you think is faster. Your organization or my knife..."

His smile dropped sharply.

"Move."

Ling Ci grimaced and waved at his brothers behind them, although his male root could be reattached if it was chopped off, he wouldn't be able to stand the piercing and suspicious gaze of the people around him. He was just a regular D grade player, if it wasn't for his brother would have died long ago in the Nightmare Shuttle.

His younger brothers looked at each other and slowly cleared a path. Chu Yi smiled, the glaring red eyes were filled with a biting chill. He slowly lifted his hand away from Ling Ci. With a slight sneer, he flicked and wiped it on Ling Ci's shirt as if wiping away something dirty.

Although he wasn't hurt, Ling Ci would have rathered Chu Yi had fought him.

When the beautiful back of Chu Yi strolled away, only a suffocating and embarrassing silence was left. After a moment Ling Ci shouted angrily to his brothers, "Let's go!" and sent a gloomy gaze to the left-back he turned the opposite way. Almost immediately he opened his system and clicked on a familiar name.

Big Brother.

It wasn't long before his request was approved.

Chu Yi quickly put the previous events behind him and checked his storage bar. It was now filled with a few more things. The Conductors Playing Card(Summoning Card), gold treasure chest ×2 (medium magic), a sweet lollipop, Madman's Sword,(untradeable)(Natal soul-killing weapon (Irius), The Conductors' letter, Evil Ghosts Approval Ticket, Xing Ling's Red Bow, A dirty doll. Spirit Gun. A mermaids scale. R89's approval seal; A sealed letter. Dark iron treasure chest×3 (low magic), as well as 1085 World coins and 45 contribution points.

At the top of the storage, the column marked "Achievement" was now filled with an additional grey screenshot of <The Institute>, covered with a Gold Medal of "Gold Evaluation".

Below the "Achievement" column was the character attributes:

Name: Chu Yi

(Reserve Player); Number: 50001; Title: Destroyer 

(available for official players); Race: Human; Physical State: Good; Physical Fitness: Excellent; Curse(s): None. 

Chu Yi thought for a moment and glanced at his character panel, the cluttered and random items in his space were displayed. Just as he was contemplating what to do with them, a crisp ding sounded followed by multiple system notifications.

[Player 1014. Chao Bin sends a friend request.]

[Player 5599. Tang Shun sends a friend request.]

[Player 8810. Shi Xiaodong sends a friend request.]

[Player 5002. Lui Quishi sends a friend request.]

Chu Yi raised a brow and passed the next street, red eyes narrowing slightly. It was pretty evident who these people were and after a moment's hesitation, he still decided to approve these requests. Almost immediately after, there came countless pings from two of the friends added. His brows furrowed slightly and without hesitation, he blocked them.

"....."

"....!"

The world was silent.

It was only after he had reached back to his residence did two tentative dings come from the interface once more. It resembled two naughty dogs that had been scolded and were now reaching out with a single paw to test their owners' reactions. Against his better judgment, Chu Yi accepted them again.

[Chu Yi! Do you have any enmity with the purple turbans!] 

[Chu Yi what kind of deep-set hatred do you have with the purple turbans?!]

At this moment the other two, although not as urgent also sent a message asking whether he had any interactions with the purple turbans. It took a moment for Chu Yi to even remember who they were talking about and with a raised eyebrow he sent out a single question mark.

But the others inexplicably understood his meaning.

Almost immediately Lui Quishi sent him a long message, [It's said that the Purple Turbans have set out a bounty on your head for 1000 world coins! And the details of the mission asks a bunch of people to find you, and follow you into the next instance to punish you!]

[They didn't outright come to you because they're giving you a death notice!]

[Don't you know, the purple turbans are notorious for their punishments. A lot of people who've watched come out crying and screaming. Some people say that they will use the most painful and slowest ways to push their enemies to death! That's why every newcomer is warned not to offend them. How did you get on their bad side?!]

Chu Yi's squinted his eyes and stared at the screen, a small grin appearing at the corner of his lips. He wanted to see what kind of methods they would use to slowly push him to death. Chu Yi was more concerned about another thing, he clicked onto Tang Shun's card and slowly sent a message.

[Is there an auction house in Black City?]

On the other side, Tang Shuns eyes flashed behind the silver glasses.

[Yes. On the sixth floor of the towers.]

At the same, a golden invitation was sent to him.

[Black Cities annual auction: The Death Store]
