Chapter 65.2

In the next room.

Zhu Shuangshuang and Su Wangsheng sat facing each other in silence for a long time.

Zhu Shuangshuang said, "No wonder they want to harden our blood vessels. It turns out they want to cultivate flowers inside us."

She pressed the veins on the back of her hand one by one, her voice just maintaining its steady tone. "I don't know how big the sacred flower will grow in our blood vessels. If they aren't a bit sturdier, they might burst."

Su Wangsheng nodded, "Hmm."

Zhu Shuangshuang continued, "The obsession of Hua Feng's brother is blood, right? Is it possible that the sacred flower will slowly suck us dry from inside our blood vessels?"

Su Wangsheng nodded again, "Hmm."

Zhu Shuangshuang stopped and looked up at Su Wangsheng. He had one hand resting on the tea table and the other hanging below it, lost in thought.

"Young Taoist, what are you thinking?"

Su Wangsheng looked up and smiled. "I'm thinking, who's more powerful now between us?"

He took out a red square seal from under the table. "I did well in the last instance and got this skill weapon, an attack type."

"And as you know, I got another item, the Yin-Yang Realm, from Ning Su's hand in the first instance."

"Your Red Veil is a defense type. In the previous dungeon instance, you guys didn't obtain any skill weapons, or maybe you did, but that weapon turned into Ah Fei for Ning Su. In fact, you also have one, the boy who helped you in the Dark Swamp."

"We're evenly matched now."

He analyzed it correctly.

If they really went all out, it's unclear who would win in the end.

They knew this was a level set by the dungeon to increase the death rate. After planting the flowers, one player could die.

This level was not only about half of the players dying but also the cruel decision-making between players who had a close relationship.

This was truly facing a 50% death rate.

Suddenly, Zhu Shuangshuang thought of the couple that Jia Chensheng mentioned, who were brought into the Flower Temple in advance. They had secretly loved each other for many years and had just found out about each other's feelings, enjoying their happiness. Now, they had to face this choice.

She didn't know how it would end for them.

"Young Taoist, many times before, you would willingly stand in front of me, but not this time." Zhu Shuangshuang rubbed her sore nose and said, "Let's fight openly and with all our might."

Su Wangsheng said, "You've fallen into a trap."

Zhu Shuangshuang asked, "Huh?"

"The rule of this instance is to make us fight. If we go all out, we'll be seriously injured, the death rate will increase, and our relationship will break."

Su Wangsheng continued, "I just analyzed it. Our strengths are about equal, and our chances of winning are similar."

"In that case," he put the bridegroom's seal on the tea table, "let's play rock-paper-scissors. The loser will offer their heart first."

In the next room.

The Holy Maiden asked Hua Feng, "Even after hearing all this, do you still want to nurture this contaminated flower?"
