Everyone was dumbfounded at that.
They didn't mishear, right? Team up to bully her? Bully???
Just who in the world was freaking bullying whom?! They'd bought tickets for the ship, but they still had to freaking act like servants! Just who was the buyer and who was the seller…
"Alright, enough nonsense. Make preparations in these next two days and wait for my instructors to act. Also, whoever leaks out the news… won't be able to leave at that time and they will be everyone's enemy! You reap what you sow… Also, monitor each other between yourselves and make sure it'll be absolutely safe…"
…
After resolving the matter with the ship tickets, Ye Wanwan led Si Yehan away and found Haitang and Wen Ziran to discuss the plan for departure in three days.
Later that night:
Inside a simple and crude house on the edge of the island:
Si Xia was sound asleep with his arms around a rock, snores occasionally breaking the silence.
Someone easily opened the door and slipped inside.
When the newcomer saw Si Xia sound asleep, a cold glint surfaced in their eyes and their lips curled up with an icy, meaningful smile.
The newcomer was holding a piece of rope and slowly walked toward Si Xia, stopping next to him. They pulled the rope around Si Xia's neck, seeming to want to choke him to death with it.
However, when the visitor saw the hoe nearby, they appeared to change their mind immediately and tossed the rope aside, gently picking up the hoe.
"Hehe… Punk, don't resent me. If you want to blame something, blame your own misfortune…"
As the visitor spoke, they clutched the hoe and aimed it at Si Xia before ruthlessly hacking it toward Si Xia without any hesitation.
The amount of force wasn't light. Forget about a person's head, but even a large piece of rock would've probably been smashed to bits.
At that moment, Si Xia suddenly turned over and the hoe missed.
"D*mn, punk… your luck is good, but… what's the point of living an extra 30 seconds?"
The person snorted and didn't stop their attack, striking Si Xia's head again.
What depressed the visitor was that this punk managed to dodge both fatal blows successively.
"Hmph!"
The visitor snorted. They returned the hoe to its spot and picked up the thick rope they tossed aside earlier.
A second later, the visitor knelt over Si Xia, firmly locking him in place so that he couldn't move before wrapping the neck in their hand around Si Xia's neck.
"Hahaha, punk, let me see if you're lucky again this time. Turn around again! How will you freaking turn now?!"
The visitor was dressed in black and their face was covered by a makeshift piece weaved from the plants and flowers on this island. Their laugh was immensely unbridled and dramatic.
"Let's see if I can choke you, little b*stard, to death today."
The person snorted and pulled with both hands, harshly choking Si Xia's neck.
This very instant, Si Xia's closed eyes shot open.
"D*mn… who are you?!"
Si Xia was stunned when he saw the person in black crouched above him.
"Hehe, little darling, I'm Heibai
"Heibai Wuchang?! Where's Bai Wuchang then?" Si Xia retorted almost immediately, not seeming to have woken up completely yet.
"Your Grandfather Bai Wuchang is waiting for you in the Underworld!" the person in black shouted harshly.
"Big brother… brother… don't kill me, brother!" Si Xia yelled. "Let's talk properly!"
