Su Xiao took a deep breath, the intense pain from his chest made his vision black out. He imdiately took out a syringe and injected it into his neck.

...
The intense pain throughout his body gradually subsided, and his reddened vision returned to normal.
"Very good."
Su Xiao lightly flicked the blood off Dragon Slash and walked slowly to Wokim’s back.
At this mont, Wokim stood in place, having entered an automated operation state, relying on visual capture to find enemies, needing no commands from his brain for any actions.
Although ignoring the brain greatly enhanced Wokim’s action ability, there were considerable downsides. Not using the brain ant losing perception force,
With his eyes gouged out, Wokim couldn’t find a second target, and the automated operation state forcibly terminated.
Su Xiao stood behind Wokim, rcilessly slashing down with his blade.
With a slash, blood spattered. The blade didn’t behead Wokim, but sliced his neck halfway through.
Wokim, standing still, suddenly moved. His fist, the size of a sandbag, swung back at Su Xiao, but several hexagonal energy shields imdiately blocked his side.
Boom!
Rubble spewed under Su Xiao’s feet, the power of Wokim’s punch was much diminished, unable to send him flying.
Withstood Wokim’s punch, Su Xiao kicked Wokim’s lower back, causing Wokim to stagger forward, then Su Xiao advanced and swiftly beheaded Wokim.
[You have killed Wokim (automated operation state)]
[Detected Wokim’s significantly enhanced abilities, reward increased.]
[Wokim is a mber of the Phantom Troupe, gained 10.2% of the World Source, now possessing a total of 39.7% of the World Source.]
[Due to killing three Troupe mbers, Phantom Troupe reputation -700, current Troupe reputation: -900 (mortal enemy).]
...
As Wokim died, Hero, already bleeding from seven orifices, also fell to the ground, losing consciousness in seconds. This is the biggest risk of automated operations. If Wokim died, all of Hero’s telekinesis energy would dissipate.
Telekinesis energy is life energy, and the result of life energy dissipating is imaginable—that’s death!
Wokim’s headless corpse fell, and a light golden treasure chest dropped on the ground; yes, it was light golden.
The radiance of this light gold made the surrounding Contractors restless, and at that mont, most Contractors had the urge to rush onto the battlefield.
Su Xiao picked up the light golden treasure chest and stored it in the storage space, along with picking up Wokim’s head and tossing it to the valley’s edge, as if dousing the red-eyed Contractors with cold water.
"If you have the guts, co and snatch it. I might not be able to kill all of you, but the first few will definitely die."
Su Xiao’s shout echoed in the valley, and those Contractors hoping to benefit without effort were all waiting, waiting for soone to make the first move.
"This guy is almost done, anyone got long-range abilities?"
A Contractor shouted, but regrettably, no one showed themselves. It was clear now, whoever attacked Su Xiao first would have a disastrous outco.
Rapid footsteps approached, it was Bu Bu Wang dashing into the valley at full speed, monts later reaching Su Xiao’s side.
"Woof."
Bu Bu Wang barked, clearly aning: "Master, ’get on,’ this dog is here for the rescue."
Su Xiao flipped onto Bu Bu Wang’s back. Bu Bu Wang rushed wildly towards the valley’s edge.
"Bai Ye, co save !"
Hao Zhu scread hoarse cries, facing Machi and Shizuku’s siege, death seed imminent.
"Hold them for two more minutes, and I’ll spare your life."
Bu Bu Wang had already carried Su Xiao to the valley edge, hearing this, Hao Zhu felt even more desperate, unsure if he could last another two minutes.
Machi and Shizuku exchanged glances, they had two choices, retreat or pursue Su Xiao.
"Retreat."
Machi withdrew, and Shizuku showed signs of retreat as well.
Hao Zhu, having just sighed with relief, suddenly thought, when Su Xiao previously asked him to hold off two people, if both escaped, would there be retribution?
The more Hao Zhu pondered, the more panicked he beca; Su Xiao’s terrifying combat strength had already cast a shadow over him. After a brief hesitation, he charged at Shizuku, she was injured, an easy target.
Noticing this, Machi’s face changed drastically, realizing they were defeated today. If they didn’t leave now, they’d die here too. The opponent’s words about holding them for two minutes implied they had healing abilities.
"Machi, you must leave."
Shizuku’s expression was calm; she was injured, and given the enemy’s speed, she couldn’t escape.
"..."
"Machi, we can’t all die, you must report the situation here to the Leader. Your abilities are more crucial to the Troupe."
Shizuku, gripping the vacuum-shaped bulging eye fish, forced Hao Zhu into retreat after retreat.
Shizuku smiled faintly, not fearing death, understanding that soday she’d et her end at the hands of soone stronger.
Although Shizuku appeared as a clueless glasses girl, don’t be fooled by her gentle facade; she’s a Troupe mber, with at least a hundred lost souls at her hands, including doctors, rchants, children, thieves, gang mbers.
...
Above the valley, Bu Bu Wang stopped beside the car they arrived in, with Black Mary in the driver’s seat.
Su Xiao stored Dragon Slash in the storage space and reached for the half arm he had been holding in his mouth; it was his own arm.
Reconstructing an arm is different from limb restoration; Su Xiao preferred the latter.
Crawling into the passenger seat, the dazed Black Mary was startled, seeing Su Xiao covered in blood with one arm severed.
"Mister Bai Ye, are you alright?"
Black Mary swallowed hard.
"Do I look alright? Hurry and use your ability."
"Alright, I’ll use it now."
Black Mary took several deep breaths, assuming a peculiar stance.
"Restore!"
Su Xiao: "..."
Bu Bu Wang: "..."
"Restore, heal, Holy Light..."
"Focus, concentrate on the Dark Rose."
"Oh, right, right, concentrate, Mister Bai Ye, I was wrong, suddenly having this magical ability, I’m just an ordinary wo..."
Su Xiao and Bu Bu Wang stared intently at Black Mary, who shivered and imdiately focused on the rose tattoo.
The Dark Rose floated before Su Xiao, enveloping him in milky white telekinesis energy.
As the Dark Rose rotated, the severed forearm floated to the stump, with muscles, bones, nerves, and blood vessels rapidly regenerating. Monts later, Su Xiao’s right arm was restored.
Not only did the arm heal, but three broken ribs also started to nd.
Monts later, Su Xiao leaned back tiredly in the passenger’s seat, all injuries healed, pain gone, feeling so at ease he wanted to sleep.
The dark rose stopped rotating in mid-air, petals fell in large pieces, twelve in total, with only eight petal remains on the Dark Rose, leaving Su Xiao slightly surprised.
But he quickly deduced why: the stronger the healed individual, the greater the consumption. Being severely injured with limb loss plus his strength, using twelve petals in one go was reasonable.
The Dark Rose returned to Black Mary’s arm, and she suddenly slumped against the steering wheel, instantly asleep, saliva dripping—clearly exhausted.
Just as Su Xiao prepared to leave the car, a dark purple glow appeared from the back seat. Su Xiao turned to see Bu Bu Wang holding a dark purple treasure chest, undoubtedly Nobunaga’s.
"I thought this thing was stolen by those Contractors."
Su Xiao received the treasure chest.
"Wait in the car for ."
Leaving those words, fully healed Su Xiao headed back into the valley. Though his injuries were healed, he felt extrely fatigued, with only a few points of mana value remaining, just recovered.
