Chapter 130
In the third stage of ?Deadly Weed?, the main task is to kill Steward Wu.
However, Jiang Xiaoyu in the third stage has no combat ability, and since it’s an interactive puzzle game, the combat stages are skipped, leaving Li Muyang unable to fight manually.
Initially, he relied on solving puzzles and discovered the clue of a strange bloody scent in the mountains, avoiding certain death.
He then continued to search for a way to kill Steward Wu.
Since Jiang Xiaoyu couldn’t defeat Steward Wu, he had to use someone else’s power to do it.
Once he had this idea, Li Muyang started running around Black Cloud Village and the caves in the back mountain, interacting with all the NPCs, until he found a demonic cultivator NPC who bore a grudge against Steward Wu.
The leader of these foreign demonic cultivators was the mysterious Temple Seal Lord, under whom were three cave masters and eighteen stewards.
One of the stewards, named ?Wei Sandao?, had a grudge against Steward Wu.
This Wei Sandao usually hid deep in the cave, never stepping out, and was almost invisible.
Li Muyang had stumbled upon this NPC by chance and was killed by him on their first meeting.?Wei Sandao? discovered that Li Muyang was Steward Wu’s man and chopped Li Muyang up as soon as they met.
After reloading, Li Muyang immediately said he hated Steward Wu, which prevented him from being killed by ?Wei Sandao?.
“You say you hate Steward Wu, how can you prove it?”
Wei Sandao questioned.
Li Muyang responded directly: “To be honest, I’ve always been oppressed by Steward Wu and have long wanted to kill him. If there’s a chance, I’ll definitely kill Steward Wu.”
This was the perfect answer Li Muyang discovered after dying over sixty times.
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, Wei Sandao sneered.
“Want to kill Steward Wu? That’s perfect. I have a way to do just that, but I wonder if you dare to try it.”
Wei Sandao offered a method, and Li Muyang nodded repeatedly.
“Good! Please, senior, enlighten me!”
…….
So Li Muyang listened to Wei Sandao’s plan and made the necessary preparations as instructed.
Finally, at midnight, he lured Steward Wu out alone.
In the moonlit, eerie forest, Steward Wu, clad in a black robe, frowned.
“In the dead of night… is what you said earlier true?”
Under the moonlight, Li Muyang, holding Xiao Yecao’s hand, stopped and turned back to grin at Steward Wu.
“Steward Wu, here’s the thing…”
“Indeed, I heard that Wei Sandao wants to kill you, and I also heard him say he found that thing.”
Li Muyang sneakily glanced around before adding in a low voice.
“I wouldn’t dare deceive you!”
“After following Wei Sandao back, I immediately came to find you.”
Li Muyang seemed very anxious, looking around nervously.
His skittish behavior displeased Steward Wu.
Steward Wu snorted coldly: “Stop looking around. It’s just the three of us here. Just tell me where that thing Wei Sandao buried in the back mountain is.” ?
“You said you followed him and saw with your own eyes where he buried that thing, right?”
Steward Wu’s eyes darkened as if ready to kill.
Mentioning Wei Sandao made Steward Wu like a keg of gunpowder about to explode, his entire demeanor becoming agitated.
“If we really find that thing, the reward promised to you won’t be shortchanged.”
“But if I find out you’re playing me, then you’re as good as dead!”
Steward Wu’s expression was grim.
Li Muyang quickly said: “It’s over here. I saw Wei Sandao burying the thing with my own eyes.”
“He kept muttering about finally finding it, but I don’t know what it is…”
Steward Wu huffed: “Whatever he cares so much about must be that thing. Just lead the way. Even if it’s not what I’m looking for, if we can dig up something Wei Sandao buried, it will be considered your merit.”
Steward Wu’s tone softened a bit, and Li Muyang immediately smiled.
“Alright! Steward Wu, please follow me this way…”
Li Muyang, leading Xiao Yecao, guided the way ahead.
The three of them stepped into the dark forest under the moonlight, continually moving forward under Li Muyang’s lead.
However, as they walked further and further, covering several li within the woods, they had completely left Black Cloud Village behind. But Steward Wu was not impatient.
Instead, he became visibly excited.
As they continued forward, a faint scent of blood began to waft through the air.
The smell grew stronger, suggesting they were getting closer to their destination.
Eventually, Li Muyang and the others arrived at the entrance of a gloomy cave.
Pointing to the pitch-black cave entrance, Li Muyang cautiously said, “It’s inside here. I hid outside and saw him enter and stay for a long time. There were also sounds of digging. Wei Sandao must have buried that thing inside the cave.”
The stench of blood was particularly strong at the cave’s mouth, clearly indicating the source was nearby.
Steward Wu took a deep breath and snorted coldly, “You two wait outside for me; I’ll go in and have a look.”
With that, Steward Wu stepped directly into the dark cave.
Seeing Steward Wu enter the cave, Li Muyang immediately pulled Xiao Yecao back to retreat.
Inside the pitch-dark cave, Steward Wu’s excited laughter soon echoed, “It’s really here… hahaha… hahaha! I’ve found it!”
“Damn you, Wei Sandao! Did you think you could hide it, and I wouldn’t find it? Hahaha…” Steward Wu laughed heartily.
The usually gloomy and reticent Steward Wu was excited and thrilled for the first time.
But in the next second, a flash of cold light shone inside the cave.
This was followed by Steward Wu’s roar, filled with shock and rage, “Wei Sandao? You despicable wretch! How dare you ambush me…”
Wei Sandao’s sinister laughter resonated within the cave, “Didn’t expect this? After all your scheming, you’ll still die by my hand. Meet your end!”
Inside the cave, flashes of light and sounds of explosions continued, indicating an extremely fierce battle.
However, Li Muyang had already taken Xiao Yecao to hide far away, and in the end, they could only see the cave collapse amidst the roaring sounds. The battle beneath the earth continued.
Tremors spread outward, causing a minor earthquake in the area.
It was about ten minutes before the earthquake finally stopped and subsided.
Then, a figure burst through the soil from the collapsed underground. Under the moonlight, the silhouette’s head bore the blood bar labeled ?Wei Sandao?.
“Hehe… kid, that Steward Wu really trusted you, huh? He actually let you lead him here,” Wei Sandao said, covered in blood and chuckling.
In his hand, he held a pulsating heart.
With a forceful throw, Wei Sandao tossed the heart across the forest, and Li Muyang caught it. “I promised you, if I won, I’d dig out this wretch’s heart for you.”
“Now that you have the heart, you can go.”
