Oh My God! Earthlings are Insane! - Chapter 533
Chapter 533: Resurrection
Bai Shan’s mind went empty.
She did not have time to think. She instinctively brandished her dagger and chased after him.
But against her expectations, Meng Chao seemed like he still had one last breath left. He jumped around and dashing left and right. No matter what, he just would not die!
There were a few times when Bai Shan’s dagger cut into his skin, but aside from making his already bloody skin become even bloodier, it did nothing to stop this loach-like monster from moving around.
Her surroundings were also working against her.
While Meng Chao ran around, he crashed into the swaying broken walls.
The building continued collapsing. The falling walls constantly blocked Bai Shan’s sight and path.
She watched as Meng Chao shook his hips one wall away from her, but she just could not get close to him and stab his heart.
The short five minutes of “tag” agitated Bai Shan. Her eyes became bloodshot, and she only had one thought in her mind, ‘I have to kill this guy and silence him. Otherwise, it’s all over!’
Fortunately, no matter how agile Meng Chao was, the blood that gushed out of his wounds left behind a bloody trail.
Even if Bai Shan lost sight of him time and again, she could catch up to him just by following the foul smell of his blood.
Besides, in time, Meng Chao reached his limit and was about to keel over and die.
When he moved through the ruins, his skin was scraped by the sharp rebars and broken stones, so his wounds became even more terrifying and he started moving slower.
Finally, Bai Shan caught up to Meng Chao.
A black wall stood in front of them.
It was a dead end.
Meng Chao seemed to be in despair. He shouted and ran toward the wall.
Bai Shan scoffed coldly. Her dagger turned into a flash of white lightning that went straight for Meng Chao’s heart from the back.
“AH!”
Meng Chao let out a shrill scream the moment the dagger struck his back.
Bang!
He crashed into the wall.
The wall was very brittle from the shockwaves created by the spirit energy burning underground. When he crashed into it at full force, it fell into pieces.
Meng Chao instantly fell behind the wall, and around eight rays of light rushed out from there. They flashed on Bai Shan.
She narrowed her eyes and saw Wild Wolf, Zhang Tie, A’Ji, and five other Wild Wolves staring at her in shock.
Her eyelids twitched, but her expression remained calm. Her mind raced as she quickly thought of a logical explanation.
Meng Chao landed beside Wild Wolf’s feet and did not move.
Bai Shan’s dagger was near his heart.
Wild Wolf stared at Bai Shan, then at Meng Chao. He knelt down on one knee and pressed down on Meng Chao’s neck artery with two fingers before he counted silently for a few seconds.
After that, he inspected the stab wound created by the dagger before he shook his head and said in puzzlement, “He’s dead. Bai Shan, what happened? Who is he and why was he here? Why did you kill him?”
Bai Shan was silent for a while before grief appeared on her face. She sobbed and said, “I don’t know. I only know that this person killed Ms. Mulian.”
“What?!” Everyone was shocked.
A’Ji was especially shocked.
“You saw it personally?” Wild Wolf’s voice quivered. He could not believe nor accept it.
“Yeah. I saw it with my own eyes.” Bai Shan sucked in a deep breath and continued speaking in a quivering voice. “After splitting up with all of you, I heard a very faint cry for help. It sounded like Ms. Mulian’s voice.
“When I went toward the voice, I found Ms. Mulian. She was badly burned and was leaning against a wall. This guy must have found out that Ms. Mulian wasn’t dead and came to kill her.
“I didn’t hesitate. I wanted to save her.
“But he’s very cunning. When he noticed me, he tossed a grenade and completely destroyed the corner where Ms. Mulian was resting. She exploded right there and then and got buried under the debris. She’s definitely dead.
“I… I couldn’t save Ms. Mulian in time. I could only grab this at the final moment.”
She opened her palm and handed over Ms. Mulian’s bracelet.
Wild Wolf took the bracelet with a trembling hand.
He had created the wood bracelet and it should have been so light that it was almost weightless, but this built man looked like he could not hold it. He had to use two hands to lift up the bracelet.
“You… Bai Shan, did you really see this man kill Ms. Mulian?” Wild Wolf’s voice had become hoarse.
Bai Shan hesitated for a moment.
“Yes,” she stated firmly. “At that time, half of Ms. Mulian’s face was burned, but the remaining half of her face was still clean. When I directed the searchlight on her, I recognized her. I could tell that it was Ms. Mulian, and she was badly wounded.”
“Sh-She was blasted to pieces by this man and buried under the reinforced concrete?” Wild Wolf shut his eyes as if he could not imagine such a brutal scene.
When he clenched his fists, they let out cracking sounds. Wisps of smoke came out from his palms as if he was holding two pieces of burning metal. It showed that he was so angry that he was about to explode.
“Wild Wolf, stop asking these questions.” Bai Shan sighed. “Trust me. Ms. Mulian died without pain. Once we get through this obstacle, we will come back to recover her body so that she can rest.
“The dead are already dead. What’s important is the people who are still alive. Both the old village chief and Ms. Mulian treated us and all the other villagers as their family. I believe that their spirits in heaven would want you to focus on taking the rest of our family out of this place!”
“That’s right. I do indeed need to focus so we can make our way out of this.” Wild Wolf opened his eyes, and the capillaries in his eyes broke, which made his eyes bloodshot. “But who is he? Who told him to kill Ms. Mulian?” he asked.
“I don’t know who he is,” Bai Shan said after thinking for a moment. “Give me some time. I will definitely figure out his identity. At that time, the mastermind and their scheme will be made clear!”
“Looks like the entire scheme is already clear.”
Wild Wolf let out a long sigh.
When he looked at Bai Shan, indescribable grief and disappointment appeared in his eyes.
Zhang Tie, A’Ji, and the other Wild Wolves also stared at Bai Shan with extremely strange gazes.
The blood vessels in Zhang Tie’s arms became filled with raging blood, and the killing intent gushing out of him became stronger.
While Bai Shan and Wild Wolf were talking with each other, he and the other Wild Wolves had already discreetly spread out around Bai Shan to seal up every possible escape route she could take.
Even though the streams of fire in the distance were still burning, Bai Shan sensed that the temperature in the area had dropped by dozens of degrees Celsius.
It was as if she was locked in a cold storage or an ancient tomb sealed under ice.
She took half a step backwards and stuttered, “W-Wild Wolf, what’s the meaning of this?”
“What do you think it is?”
Wild Wolf took half a step forward, and a beast-like murderous intent fixed on his right hand woman. “Bai Shan, why did you lie to me?”
“I didn’t!” Bai Shan could not understand what went wrong. Her eyes sparkled as she looked around, and in the end, her gaze landed on the shifty-eyed A’Ji. Her eyes went wide and she said fiercely, “Wild Wolf, it doesn’t matter what the boy said, it was all a lie! Why would you trust this boy who came out of nowhere and not your childhood friend!”
“Yeah, Pearl Bai Shan. You, me, and Strong Arm Zhang Tie grew up together and are childhood friends.” Tears welled up in Wild Wolf’s eyes, and he looked even sadder. “That’s why, I really don’t understand why you would lie to me!”
“I—”
Bai Shan wanted to continue defending herself when she heard a strange cough.
She fell silent.
Her eyeballs looked like they were about to pop out of their eye sockets, including the pearl-like eye on her forehead.
She saw something unbelievable. It seemed to be straight out of a nightmare.
She had smeared poison on her dagger, so it could definitely kill its prey once the blade sank into flesh. But right then, Meng Chao, whose heart was pierced by her dagger, started spasming by Wild Wolf’s feet and began coughing.
Then, his bones let out cracking sounds. His limbs had gotten twisted from the reinforced concrete that had collapsed on him, but now, the broken parts relocated and he looked as good as new.
While he coughed softly, he slowly fiddled around with his wounds, and the seemingly fatal and terrifying wounds were all “torn” off!
Bai Shan was dumbfounded.
Then, she saw Meng Chao revealing brand new, unmarked flesh beneath the fake injuries.
His skin shone with a metallic light, and the bulging muscles seemed to contain explosive strength. He looked like a hungry panther!
Meng Chao held a medical gel in his hands and washed away the blood and grime off his face. When he revealed his true face, his sharp gaze made Bai Shan look away. There was no trace of him being heavily injured and dying.
Clang!
He had controlled the muscles and bones on his back to keep a tight hold of the poisoned dagger. It now fell to the ground.
Bai Shan’s heart also fell to the ground with the dagger.
Meng Chao grinned, revealing snow white sharp teeth.
He extended a finger to Bai Shan and said seriously, “I’m giving you one more chance. Did you really see me kill Ms. Mulian with your own eyes?”
Bai Shan felt as if there was thunder roaring in her head.
Her thoughts were a complete mess now, and she could only instinctively struggle on the spot. “Wild Wolf, trust me. I really saw him kill Ms. Mulian, that’s why I chased after him. I don’t know any of the things he told you behind my back, so don’t trust him either!”
The moment she said this, the temperature underground fell by several more degrees Celsius.
Everyone’s gazes on Bai Shan turned even stranger.
A’Ji could not hold back anymore. He started giggling.
“Wh-What?” Bai Shan felt a sense of foreboding again.
Then, she saw something that was even more unbelievable than Meng Chao’s “resurrection”.
Su Mulian’s slightly pale face appeared from the darkness behind Wild Wolf. When she looked at Bai Shan, her eyes contained indescribable grief and aloofness.
