Monster Resurgence Chapter 78

Chapter 78

<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>

From the betrayal at the bottom of the river in the red coffin to the intentionally provocative ambiguous photos, to the emptiness of last night’s pounce. 

Lou Yan treated Fu Xuezhou’s threat as if it were a passing cloud. 

Fu Xuezhou coldly scrutinized every expression on Lou Yan’s face, thinking to himself, I have indeed been too lenient with him. 

His hand squeezing Lou Yan’s neck showed no mercy, and every word he spoke was filled with the dangerous threat and coldness that could scare someone to a heart attack. 

The skin around Lou Yan’s neck quickly bruised purple, and his throat moved awkwardly. Lifting his eyelids to meet Fu Xuezhou’s eyes, his eyebrows furrowed. 

…Lenient my *ss. 

You’re forcing me to figure things out and make love with you within a week, and you call that lenient? 

The ominous implications in this sentence made Lou Yan’s instincts scream in panic, especially since he and Fu Xuezhou were still in the roles of prisoner and hunter. In the rules mentioned by Shadow Reaper, hunters could do anything cruel to prisoners… 

Fu Xuezhou wouldn’t go crazy here— 

Lou Yan’s heart skipped a beat, his right eyelid began to twitch again. After considering the worst possible outcome, his face darkened, looking as if Fu Xuezhou had made him unable to breathe. 

Li Sannin’s handsome face became gloomy, and without a second thought, he was about to rush forward. “Fu Xuezhou, let him go.” 

Lin You watched the silver-haired hunter warily, taking a step forward with his right foot and raising both hands slightly, already assuming an attacking stance.

But Lou Yan said, “—Don’t come over!”

Li Sanxin stopped in his tracks, looking at Lou Yan in confusion.

Lou Yan gave them a look, cleared his throat, and said without a doubt, “You guys go first.”

Li Sanxin gritted his teeth, looked at Lou Yan for a few seconds, and quickly understood Lou Yan’s meaning. Fu Xuezhou’s identity as a “hunter” naturally suppressed them, not to mention Fu Xuezhou’s terrifying strength. If the two of them rushed up, they would just be cannon fodder. It was better to take the opportunity now to hurry to the passage leading to the second floor.

Li Sanxin took a deep breath, his eyes burning red, but he calmed down.

Lou Yan let them leave, probably also because he didn’t want them to witness the confrontation between him and Fu Xuezhou afterward… If Fu Xuezhou wanted to survive, he wouldn’t kill Lou Yan.

If they stayed here, they would only become a hindrance to Lou Yan.

Li Sanxin clenched his fists, then gave Fu Xuezhou a cold look before directly following Lin You’s lead to quickly leave the scene.

The silver-haired hunter watched Lou Yan, neither stopping the conversation between Lou Yan and Li Sanxin and Lin You, nor preventing Li Sanxin and Lin You from leaving.

In the blink of an eye, Li Sanxin and Lin You disappeared from sight.

Fifty meters away, Lou Yan still didn’t sense any danger other than Fu Xuezhou within two hundred meters. He knew that with Li Sanxin and Lin You’s abilities, they could successfully reach the passage leading to the second floor in less than half a minute.

Feeling a little relieved, Lou Yan shifted his gaze back to Fu Xuezhou. Concealing his heavy heart and subtle nervousness well, he refused to be suppressed by Fu Xuezhou’s aura, his expression a mixture of amusement and disdain. “Fu Xuezhou, what’s your intention?”

Without the featureless white mask covering Fu Xuezhou’s face, Lou Yan couldn’t see Fu Xuezhou’s expression. But he could see Fu Xuezhou giving him a deep look, a look that sent chills down Lou Yan’s spine.

Then, Fu Xuezhou didn’t say a word. Instead, he directly placed his other hand on Lou Yan’s waist and with a tearing sound, ripped open the upper part of Lou Yan’s sturdy gray prisoner uniform.

The fair and firm skin was faintly visible through the tear, causing Lou Yan’s pupils to dilate in disbelief as he stared at Fu Xuezhou. Veins bulged on his forehead instantly as Lou Yan grabbed Fu Xuezhou’s hand at his waist, gritting his teeth and growling, “What the h*ll are you doing?”

“I’ve told you,” the voice of the silver-haired hunter remained calm even after doing such a thing, taking a step forward with his black military boots, his long leg forcefully squeezing between Lou Yan’s legs, “I’ll give you and your ambiguous companion a lesson. I warned you that you wouldn’t want to see the day when I resort to force against you. But obviously, you didn’t take my words to heart.”

Another tearing sound, and the torn piece of clothing was directly torn off. Lou Yan’s upper body was instantly missing a piece of clothing, revealing a small portion of his abdominal muscles and the lean waistline on the side.

This sound was like pouring a bucket of oil into a blazing fire, causing Lou Yan’s temples to throb rapidly. “F*ck!”

Fu Xuezhou had always been dangerous and domineering. Despite his skin being as cold as the snow-capped mountains and appearing isolated as if he were separated by an insurmountable distance from everyone else in the world, what was inside him never changed.

The slender fingers in black gloves reached into the gap in Lou Yan’s torn waist, creeping up until they reached the scapula of Lou Yan’s back. The long middle finger rubbed against the skin with the red coffin tattoo, the touch of the glove cold and slick, like a cold snake.

Lou Yan trembled all over with anger.

——Clearly, if Fu Xuezhou wanted to touch the ghost marriage contract tattoo on Lou Yan, a more convenient way would be to reach into the collar from behind. He clearly didn’t need to tear Lou Yan’s clothes, but he did it anyway. He deliberately tore Lou Yan’s clothes and then reached into Lou Yan’s waist!

The ghost marriage contract tattoo was slightly warm under the rubbing, but the anger in Lou Yan’s heart grew hotter. His eyes turned bloodshot, and his clenched fists trembled with rage.

At this moment, Lou Yan completely forgot about the identities of “prisoner” and “hunter.” He only knew that the person in front of him was a villain, and if he didn’t kill this villain, he would be the one who ended up dying from anger.

All of Lou Yan’s anger gathered in his fist. He pushed away Fu Xuezhou’s hand and fiercely punched Fu Xuezhou in the abdomen.

But after this punch was thrown, before Fu Xuezhou did anything, Lou Yan felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if he had been electrocuted. In an instant, he was sweating profusely from the pain, his whole body weakly sliding down to the ground.

The pain lasted for more than ten seconds before disappearing, leaving Lou Yan panting heavily, biting his teeth, his eyes filled with waves of shock, cold sweat dripping from his forehead. He didn’t even have the strength to move, still trying to figure out what was happening.

He could be sure that Fu Xuezhou didn’t attack him, and this electric shock-like pain reminded him of the moment when he was first shocked by the pig-headed prison guard when he entered the amusement park… Could this be a restriction on prisoners? In the rules mentioned by Shadow Reaper, it was only said that the identities of prisoners and hunters couldn’t be exchanged, but it didn’t say that prisoners couldn’t attack hunters. Lou Yan originally thought this was a loophole, but obviously, anomalies didn’t allow prisoners to attack or even kill hunters.

As long as they made any moves to attack hunters, they would receive such punishment.

Prisoners could only flee in front of hunters… No wonder they called this a Great Escape Murder game.

Fu Xuezhou crouched down in front of Lou Yan, one knee touching the ground, his silver hair almost brushing against Lou Yan’s legs, quietly watching Lou Yan. Lou Yan met his eyes, glaring at him fiercely, trying to intimidate Fu Xuezhou with his gaze.

Lou Yan now had no strength in his body, like a fish on a chopping board, helpless. This feeling made him very uneasy.

But bow down to Fu Xuezhou?

Heh, that’s even harder than death.

Fu Xuezhou chuckled faintly, whether he was mocking Lou Yan’s current embarrassment or feeling pleased with Lou Yan’s current helpless struggle, it was hard to tell.

Fu Xuezhou lifted his hand close to Lou Yan’s face, but Lou Yan immediately turned his head away to avoid his hand, the disgust in his eyes difficult to conceal. His body tensed up, and he said in a hoarse voice, word by word, “Get lost! Don’t f*cking—touch me!”

Lou Yan’s voice suddenly raised, his eyes filled with shock and anger.

After Lou Yan dodged Fu Xuezhou’s raised hand, Fu Xuezhou didn’t hesitate. His hand calmly landed on Lou Yan’s calf. With a merciless force, there was only the familiar sound of tearing fabric. Lou Yan’s left leg’s trousers were instantly torn from the pant leg to above the knee, leaving behind long and wide strips.

The slender and fair legs were instantly exposed by a large margin, and the torn gray pants edges were uneven. In this situation, Lou Yan’s appearance, amidst the embarrassment, inevitably carried a hint of obscure color. Even his resentful expression tickled a person’s heart.

Lou Yan’s eyes were red with anger. Lifting his right leg, he aimed to kick Fu Xuezhou. “Trash, how dare you—!”

Before this fierce kick could land on Fu Xuezhou, it was grabbed by Fu Xuezhou, who firmly held Lou Yan’s ankle, throwing away the torn fabric in his hand and once again placing his hand on the intact prisoner’s pants leg on Lou Yan’s right leg.

“Trash?” The silver-haired young man’s tone was indifferent, but his actions almost drove people crazy. “Lou Yan, it seems you still haven’t remembered my words.”

“Tear—” The last intact pants leg also slowly split into two from the thigh.

“You promised me a week! You promised to give me a week to consider!!!” Lou Yan stared at Fu Xuezhou with his eyes fixed, struggling with all his remaining strength, filled with both anger and fear. His chest heaved violently, and with no way out, he could only use Fu Xuezhou’s previous promise to warn him angrily, “Fu Xuezhou! You personally promised me a week, and it hasn’t been a week yet! Are you not a man? Can’t you keep your word?!”

This was still in the maze!

In the anomaly amusement park!

In the place close to the second-floor passage, where someone could pass by at any moment!

Fu Xuezhou’s black prison uniform remained neat and tidy, but Lou Yan, leaning against the wall under his shadow, was disheveled, with torn and tattered clothes—a scene that starkly resembled an act of violence, with ambiguity lurking within. It was completely different from the smell of blood in the air, the distant screams, and the other hellish scenes of dismemberment.

“I said it too.”

Fu Xuezhou approached Lou Yan, his pitch-black eyes fixed on Lou Yan. “I gave you a week, I was too lenient.”

Lou Yan’s eyes turned red, and the ghost marriage contract tattoo on his back grew hotter. He was agitated, growling, “This is in the anomaly amusement park! If those anomaly things find out that you, as a hunter, are not killing people but doing this with me, a prisoner, aren’t you afraid of being targeted?!”

Fu Xuezhou retorted, “Do you think there are no anomaly things watching us?”

Lou Yan was completely stunned, his hands trembling imperceptibly, his eyes filled with increasing hostility, his lips stiffly pulling back, “What do you mean?”

Fu Xuezhou looked at him with a hint of amusement, “How could there be no audience in an amusement park? Maybe right now, some anomalies are watching us…”

Lou Yan followed his words and imagined the scene, his face turning pale with difficulty. Even his teeth made a “crackling” sound of fierceness.

Their conversation seemed to be heard by the anomalies. Suddenly, Lou Yan saw a row of bloody red words appear on the wall two meters away from him.

“Haha, got him, got him”

“Strip his clothes off, screw him right here, let us watch”

“Hurry up and force him, cut off his struggling hands, humans will behave obediently then”

“Look carefully, so pretty, faster, faster”

“Make him despair, make him cry, haha, make it bloody”

Lou Yan’s breath stopped, his face pale as he looked at these words.

These were… words spoken by anomalies?

Anomalies could speak… such obscene words?

These lines of red words reflected in his eyes, almost piercing through Lou Yan’s eyeballs. He stared fixedly at these words, feeling goosebumps all over his skin. The feeling of being watched, being observed, followed him like a shadow, tearing down all the arrogance and dignity he had.

….

Lou Yan’s face was expressionless, his fingernails digging into his palms. 

Beside him, Fu Xuezhou noticed his strange expression and also turned to look at the blood-red words on the wall behind him. After reading each sentence clearly, his eyes narrowed slightly. 

Author’s note: 

Lou Yan: I’m ****! 

Chief Lou’s angry appearance, I really, I can’t handle it.
