Chapter 6 Long Time No See?
"I do like roses."
She spoke slowly, her voice clear and melodious, yet carrying a chilling edge.
"But that's because my beloved once gave me roses."
"Not trash like you."
"You're delivering roses to me too?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the temperature in the entire hall suddenly dropped.
John's face turned ashen, his legs went weak, and he almost knelt on the ground.
"No...no...Miss, I...I can explain..."
He stammered as if he wanted to say something, but Shen Qingyan had already waved his hand impatiently.
"Noisy."
She uttered two words calmly.
Then, he reached out and plunged his hand directly into John's chest!
"Pfft!"
A muffled thud.
Blood splattered.
John's eyes widened.
Looking down at the hand on his chest, his eyes were filled with fear and despair.
John opened his mouth as if to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.
Shen Qingyan withdrew her hand, clutching a still-beating heart.
She glanced at it, then casually tossed it on the ground.
"Bang."
John's body fell heavily to the ground.
His eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes open in disbelief.
The entire hall was completely silent.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw.
That American contestant with high-level supernatural gadgets, that confident John, just like that...
died?
It didn't even last a second?
Several timid contestants collapsed to the ground, trembling all over.
Yamamoto Ichiro's face turned deathly pale, and his lips were trembling.
He subconsciously touched the basic supernatural item at his waist and suddenly realized that it was a joke.
If even high-level supernatural artifacts are useless, what use is this broken copper bell?
Zhou Tian, however, remained seated there expressionless.
He stared at John's body on the ground, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
"Shen Qingyan, it seems you haven't forgotten me after all."
Zhou Tian muttered to himself, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.
On Earth, in the United States.
The situation has already exploded.
"How is that possible?! Doesn't Shen Qingyan love roses the most?!"
"Our intelligence was definitely correct!"
"Why...why is this happening?!"
Countless Americans held their heads in their hands, their faces filled with despair.
But the Dragon Kingdom remained silent at this moment.
Everyone was terrified by Shen Qingyan's methods.
That's an S-class female ghost...
He instantly defeated the strongest player in the United States with a single move...
Can Zhou Tian really do it?
Just then, Shen Qingyan's gaze suddenly fell on Zhou Tian.
A complex look flashed in her eyes.
Then, she slowly began to speak.
"Next."
"Zhou Tian, the contestant from China."
A chilling voice reached Zhou Tian's ears.
Without hesitation, Zhou Tian immediately got up and walked towards Shen Qingyan.
The other contestants all wore expressions of schadenfreude.
"Hahaha, this idiot from China actually chose an S-rank female ghost?"
"Didn't he see how that American died?"
"He's probably scared out of his wits. Since he's going to die anyway, he might as well die a glorious death?"
"Heroic? I think it was a gruesome death!"
Yamamoto Ichiro clutched his chest, a sinister smile spreading across his face.
He was furious after being kicked away by Zhou Tian.
Now that he saw Zhou Tian was going to his death, he felt sweeter than if he had eaten honey.
"Chinese man, weren't you very arrogant just now?"
"I'd like to see if you can still be arrogant in front of an S-rank female ghost!"
Yamamoto Ichiro said through gritted teeth, his eyes filled with resentment.
On Earth, in the Dragon Kingdom.
In front of the enormous light screen, the hearts of all the people of the Dragon Kingdom were in their throats.
"Oh no, oh no! Why did Zhou Tian choose an S-rank female ghost?!"
"Is he insane?! Didn't he see how that American athlete died?"
"Alas, it seems our Dragon Kingdom is truly doomed..."
Countless Chinese people covered their faces, unable to bear watching any longer.
"See? This is what happens to the Dragon Kingdom!"
"They dared to choose even an S-rank female ghost? Isn't that just courting death?"
"
These remarks sparked another wave of criticism on Chinese social media.
But amidst the criticism, some people noticed something amiss.
"Wait...look at Zhou Tian's expression!"
"How come he's not scared at all?"
"And that S-rank female ghost's gaze towards Zhou Tian seemed a little different?"
Everyone was stunned by these words.
They looked closely at the screen and indeed found something unusual.
Zhou Tian's face showed no fear or tension, but rather a faint smile.
There was even a hint of...nostalgia in that smile?
As for Shen Qingyan, the S-rank female ghost who was just moments ago cold as ice and decisive in killing...
Looking at Zhou Tian at this moment, a complex expression flashed in his eyes.
His expression contained anger, resentment, and unwillingness.
But more than anything, it's an indescribable...emotion?
"What...what's going on?"
"Do they...know each other?"
"Impossible, right? How could Zhou Tian, an ordinary person, know an S-class female ghost?"
Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, Zhou Tian walked up to Shen Qingyan.
He stopped in his tracks.
He looked up at the stunningly beautiful yet extremely dangerous woman before him.
Then he smiled.
That smile was gentle and sincere.
"Long time no see, Shen Qingyan."
His voice wasn't loud, but it resounded like thunder in everyone's ears.
The entire hall fell into a deathly silence in an instant.
Everyone stared wide-eyed, looking at the scene in disbelief.
"What...what did he say?"
"haven't seen you for a long time?!"
"He actually knows an S-class female ghost?!"
Yamamoto Ichiro's smile froze instantly, replaced by a look of utter disbelief.
He opened his mouth wide, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a single word.
The other contestants gasped in shock, their gazes towards Zhou Tian completely changing.
Upon hearing Zhou Tian's words, Shen Qingyan's icy gaze melted slightly.
She bit her lip, and a hint of moisture appeared in her icy eyes.
"You...you still remember me?"
Her voice trembled slightly, tinged with disbelief.
Zhou Tian smiled, reached out, and gently stroked her cheek.
How could I possibly forget you?
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyan's body trembled violently.
She looked at Zhou Tian, and the coldness in her eyes completely disappeared.
Instead, it is an emotion that is extremely complex.
"You...you bastard..."
She bit her lip, her voice trembling with a hint of a sob.
Why did you leave me in the first place?
Do you know how long I've waited for you?
Do you know how much I miss you?
By the end, her voice was clearly choked with sobs, and her eyes were red.
This scene left everyone stunned.
