After completing the fourth stage of the mission, Mu He's level rose to 46.

Yuan Yitong and Fan Shu are already level 47, and Lang Yanqi, the lowest level, has also risen to level 46.

If they took a look at the ranking list at this time, they would find that the top 8 spots have been completely occupied by them!

But at this moment, they had no time to look at the level list. They all stared at Wumei vigilantly, fearing that she would suddenly go berserk and her level would suddenly rise to level 99 or something.

Just as he finished thinking this, he saw Wu Mei roaring heart-wrenchingly towards the sky, and the black aura swirled around her, forming a terrible tornado, which sucked Mu He and others into it.

Mu He was startled and instinctively stepped back, but his speed was not faster than the tornado.

However, after he was caught in the tornado, nothing happened except feeling the strong wind on his face.

I looked at Wumei's level again, damn, it really became level 99!

Yes, she took back her heart and demon bones from Gu Qingheng, which was equivalent to taking back her cultivation.

Gu Qingheng was originally level 99, so of course she has become level 99 now.

However, her name is still green and has not turned red, which means that players cannot attack her yet.

But Mu He always had a nagging feeling in his heart, and had no idea how this mission would proceed.

Just then, he received a system prompt.

System: [Your team's "clear mission" has been forcibly disbanded! ]

Mu He: ???

Then, he saw Wumei staggering to his feet from the ground, his robes fluttering in the swirling black air, his whole body exuding a decadent and dangerous aura.

[Hehehe...Hahahahaha!] She laughed for a while in a very villainous tone, then suddenly looked up at everyone, [You guys, do you love each other?]

System: [Please team up with a player within 10 seconds, otherwise the mission will be considered failed! ]

"Oh my god!" Mu He was so scared that he was in a panic. Before he could find the team-forming interface, he received a team-forming request from Feng Xiyan and quickly accepted it.

"Do we have to team up in pairs to complete the next task?" Yuan Yitong and Fan Shu asked doubtfully after they formed a team.

"So that's what they meant by not having enough people at the beginning?" Yan Ziyue teamed up with Lu Xiuying. "It's not that we really don't have enough people, but that we have an odd number of people and can't team up in pairs?"

In the end, only Bai Zhuo and Lang Yanqi were left. After they formed a team, they looked at each other in silence.

Ten seconds later, Wumei suddenly raised his hand, creating eight black air waves that wrapped around the bodies of the eight people and lifted them high into the air!

"Why is fate so unfair! Why do two people who love each other end up hurting each other and never seeing each other again? I hate it! I hate it!" Wu Mei looked up at the eight people he had lifted high into the air with his black energy and screamed, "If this is the destined ending! Why not just stop meeting each other from the beginning!"

【One of the lovers must die! 】

【Tell me, who do you want to die? ! 】

As soon as he finished speaking, a small box that only they could see appeared in front of the eight people at the same time. There were two buttons on it, one showing their own ID and the other showing their teammates' IDs.

System: [Only one of you and your teammate can survive. Please make a choice within 10 seconds! Who do you want to die?]

The two options in front of Mu He were [Mu He] and [Sui Feng]. He looked at the countdown on the small box in disbelief. It was about to return to zero, leaving him no time to think.

He pressed his ID almost instinctively.

After pressing it, he found a reason for himself - it's just a game after all, it won't matter if I choose the wrong one... I'll die by myself, Feng Xiyan getting the reward is the same as him getting it.

Just as I finished thinking this, I heard a system prompt:

System: [Your friend Leng Yan Jinmie has been killed! ]

Mu He: ???

[It seems you've already made your choice.] Wu Mei said this, and with a wave of his hand, the black energy wrapped around everyone dissipated. When they fell back to the ground, only seven people remained. Bai Zhuo's body turned into dots of white light and disappeared.

"Why did Xiaobai die?" Mu He felt strange. He chose to die himself, but he and Feng Xiyan did not die. I wonder what Bai Zhuo chose?

Without waiting for his teammates to respond, Wu Mei floated over to Lang Yan as he stood up and said, "Congratulations on your unanimous choice. I'll grant you your wish! I'm delighted that you're so sympathetic. I'll give you something as a reward!"

Following Wumei's words, Langyanqi's level suddenly soared to 47!

Everyone else looked confused.

What does it mean to choose the same person? To choose the same person to die?

So Langyanqi chose Bai Zhuo, and Bai Zhuo chose himself?

Mu He tried to verify: "Who did you choose when the war started?"

The smoke of war rose: "...Of course I choose to live. Why would I die for a random acquaintance?"

——That makes a lot of sense.

"So, Xiaobai, why did you choose to die?" Mu He couldn't help but poke Bai Zhuo and asked.

Bai Zhuo felt wronged. "You can't let others die just to keep yourself alive, right? Isn't this mission about love? Why did I die when I chose to die? Isn't a great love story all about choosing to die so your loved one can live?"

Mu He: "Aren't you straight?"

Bai Zhuo: "Fuck, you know that's not what I meant!"

Mu He knew that Bai Zhuo chose to die for the mission, but he didn't expect that he would really die.

Mu He didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but finally couldn't help but tell him the truth: "You died not because you chose yourself, but because Langyanqi chose you."

Bai Zhuo:!!!

Mu He: "Xiyan and I also chose to die, and nothing happened."

Bai Zhuo felt complicated and couldn't help but complain: "You can't guess what the planner is thinking."

Mu He tried to comfort him: "The planner is definitely a single dog."

In short, Bai Zhuo failed in the mission and quit halfway.

Mu He was a little curious about what would happen to him.

At this time, Yuan Yitong was still exchanging information with Yan Ziyue:

Yuan Yitong: "We all chose to die."

Yan Ziyue: "We both chose each other's death."

Yuan Yitong: “…”

Yuan Yitong: "What do you think?"

Yan Ziyue: "We both thought the other would choose to die, so... we helped each other?"

Yuan Yitong looks at the sky - maybe this is the difference between a newlywed couple and an old married couple?

In short, the final result of everyone's discussion is that if both parties make the same choice, one of them will die and the other will get a reward. If the two parties make different choices, whether they let themselves die or let the other die, both of them will survive, but neither will get a reward.

As for the rewards, Langyanqi said they were some accessories - headwear, necklaces, bracelets, rings and the like, all of which were orange-colored, which was enviable.

"So do we have to regroup as a team?" Mu He asked. Before anyone could answer, he saw the black air around Wu Mei spinning faster and faster, and the scale of the tornado kept expanding!

Immediately afterwards, Wu Mei was lifted into the air by the black energy, looking up to the sky and laughing loudly: [Hahahahaha! Why are there still people willing to die for each other! Stupid! So stupid!]

As she spoke, her name changed from green to red!

@Infinite good articles, all in Jinjiang Literature City

"Oh my god! We still have to fight?!" Mu He instinctively took two steps back and checked Wumei's information again. It was still level 99... It's over.

But the next second, Wu Mei gathered a ball of black energy in her chest, separating the heart she had received from Gu Qingheng from her body: [Perhaps, the dead are the most relaxed - Gu Qingheng, you're going to die like this, and return your heart to me, expecting me to remember you and suffer forever? I tell you, forget it!]

As she spoke, she tightened her five fingers and crushed the red ball into pieces in the air!

Her heart shattered into countless pink petals, spinning and falling, gradually becoming transparent and disappearing before hitting the ground.

She herself was demoted from level 99 to level 60 because of the loss of her heart.

When she floated back to the ground again, the black air swirling around her disappeared, and her pupils disappeared with it - her entire eyes turned blood red!

System: [You have been forced to join Mu He's team to "clear the mission"!]

System: [Mission Progress 5: Kill Wumei. Mission Description: Wumei lost her mind after losing her heart and will indiscriminately attack those around her. Kill her quickly before she wreaks havoc on the world!]

Mu He had long guessed that they would have to fight Wumei in the end, but he didn't expect it to be for this reason. It can be said that he was quite speechless.

After Wumei lost consciousness, a skill came down at him, but he dodged it with a sideways roll while maintaining a speechless expression, and then he turned around and used a Moon Wheel Slash, successfully hitting Wumei!

When the Moon Wheel Slash hits someone of a higher level than himself, it will not cause a knock-back effect, so Mu He immediately leaned forward, and the sword landed on the ground with a shock strike!

This time, he successfully knocked the level 60 Wu Mei away, and then immediately called for help: "One tube of buff!"

Yuan Yitong: "The buff is coming!"

Mu He: "Pastor, continue to control!"

Feng Xiyan: "Yeah."

Mu He: "Mage damage!"

Fan Shu: "Here I come!"

Under Mu He's command, everyone controlled Wumei for 5 seconds, and consumed nearly half of her blood in these 5 seconds!

Wumei is a mage, so even though he is at level 60, his health and defense are not that high.

The focus is on her injuries.

Mu He: “Hide!”

Before Wumei's range damage came, Mu He led everyone to dodge out of the attack range. Unexpectedly, the damage suddenly shifted towards him, instantly knocking off nearly half of his blood!

"Tsk, that hurts." Mu He frowned. Before he could ask the priest to heal him, a ray of holy light fell on him, triggering a critical hit and returning his blood to a safe green.

Mu He noticed his own health and Wu Mei's damage, and quickly calculated everyone's skill cooldowns: "You can kill! Keep going!"

Under his command, everyone continued to attack. Mu He's health bar was almost empty several times, but he was rescued in time by Feng Xiyan.

When the second round of control cooled down and was successfully used, everyone successfully killed Wumei to the point of red blood.

Then Wumei's name turned back to green.

Mu He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and took a few steps back despite his low health, leaving Wu Mei with room to perform.

[Am I dead...?] Wumei, who was also low on health, knelt on the ground. His blood-red eyes turned back to normal color, and he seemed to be awake.

Her body gradually became transparent, and then bits of starlight floated up.

After a brief moment of surprise, she smiled with relief. "Alright, Gu Qingheng. I can't live with you, but I beg to die with you." She looked at Mu He and the others, sighed, and her voice suddenly returned to the ethereal quality it had at the beginning. "I'm sorry to have troubled you. As compensation, I'll give you all my remaining cultivation..."

As she finished speaking, her translucent body gradually floated into the air and disappeared.

At the same time, the seven people who were still "alive" received a series of system prompts:

System: [Congratulations on completing the mission "Kill Wumei"!]

System: [Congratulations on completing the hidden mission "Love Has Entered the Bone"!]

System: [Congratulations on reaching level 50!]

System: [Competitive ranking function has been enabled! Go and match your opponents and fight!]

In this regard, Bai Zhuo, who is still at level 46, just wants to say: ...Why is it always me who gets hurt? QAQ
