Chapter 728: Extra 7: The conclusion of Li Peiqi’s life. Chapter 728: Extra 7: The conclusion of Li Peiqi’s life. And just at that mont—
A young girl suddenly leaned in excitedly and whispered into her ear, “Peiqi, soone has taken out an E-grade prop to exchange for a throwing knife opportunity.”
“We’ve struck it rich this ti!”
“This is an E-grade prop we’re talking about!”
In the past, an E-grade prop wouldn’t have been anything noteworthy, but things were different now. Even the worst E-grade props were still props, and any prop could play a pivotal role in modern society.
Especially when such props could no longer be produced and beca vintage, their prices surged, and they beca even rarer.
“Oh?”
Li Peiqi, her eyes covered with a cloth, couldn’t see who was beside her, but she knew it was her assistant, and a hint of surprise arose in her heart, “Really? Is this person that generous?”
“How could it be fake? I’ve already taken the prop, and it’s definitely not a counterfeit. The prop panel is crystal clear, but that person had two stunning won with him, so he’s probably not just anybody.”
“Perhaps it’s so young master trying to show off his generosity in front of beauties by giving away an E-grade prop.”
“However, this young noble clearly miscalculated.”
“Those two stunning won by his side are probably not ordinary either, because when the young noble took out an E-grade prop and said he wanted to exchange it for throwing knife opportunity, those two won showed not a trace of disbelief. Instead, they looked utterly calm.”
“He’s spent a fortune, but his attempt to impress has fallen flat. That young noble must be fuming by now.”
“It’s fine.”
Li Peiqi stood still, chuckling softly, “Let him play. By the way, don’t you recognize that young noble? Although we’ve been expelled by the Black Dragon Guild, we should have seen all the nobles from Neutron Star before, can’t you tell which family he’s from?”
She wasn’t worried about getting hit.
She had co across a stroke of luck that greatly increased her Luck Points. At first, she thought it would only increase the probability of getting good items from treasure chests, but later she discovered that Luck Points had more uses than just that. For instance—
In the face of lethal danger, even if she stood still, Luck Points would protect her from death by forcibly altering the trajectory of the attack.
It was unreasonable.
It defied logic.
But it was a fact; once she realized Luck Points also had this ability, she felt an overwhelming sense of security and no longer worried about the Last Words prophesying her death by Chen Yi’s hands.
It was all false.
The main ga had ended, and she had never t Chen Yi; moreover, Chen Yi had not wiped out her clan. How could she possibly die by Chen Yi’s hand, especially now that the main ga had ended and there was no animosity between Chen Yi and Neutron Star? Surely he wouldn’t make a long journey just to destroy her clan on Neutron Star?
Furthermore, all players had returned to their own planets, so even if Chen Yi wanted to, he couldn’t co.
If he was not out to destroy the clan—
Then surely Chen Yi couldn’t possibly go to all the trouble of finding a way to Neutron Star just to kill her alone? After all, Chen Yi might not have even heard her na,
But just then, she suddenly thought of sothing and asked instinctively, “What does that young noble look like?”
“Erm… He has a lot of charisma, and he’s using a cane.”
“A cane?”
Li Peiqi was startled for a mont, and imdiately removed the cloth covering her eyes, looking up at Chen Yi who was standing in front of the crowd ready to throw a knife. However, before she could say anything, a throwing knife was already hurtling straight toward her forehead.
It was almost instantaneous.
Her face turned ashen and her body stiffened in place, her pupils shimred with disbelief and extre fear, as she let out a bitter laugh in her final mont.
Who else could that person be if not Chen Yi!
The mont she heard the word “cane,” she felt uneasy, and seeing the person herself only confird it—this was Chen Yi, whom she had watched countless tis on live broadcast.
How could she forget that face?
She just didn’t expect her first encounter with Chen Yi to be under such circumstances, nor did she imagine dying at the hands of Chen Yi as prophesied by the Last Words would be like this.
Oh, the irony!
The main ga was over, and yet Chen Yi had co all this way to Neutron Star just to kill her with a single knife throw? Really, Chen Yi, is there any reason why you absolutely must kill ?
Indeed!
This ti, the Goddess of Luck did not bestow her favor; it was as if her Luck Points had failed her. She saw the throwing knife heading straight for her forehead, unable to avoid it, rigidly standing her ground.
However—
Just as the knife was about to hit Li Peiqi’s forehead, a faster knife thrown by Chen Yi shot out of his hand, catching up to and deflecting the knife headed for her.
As the two knives grazed Li Peiqi’s cheek, leaving a trail of blood, they hit the wooden board behind her.
There was silence for a few seconds.
Then the place erupted with deafening cheers of excitent.
anwhile, Li Peiqi remained ghostly pale, her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground without uttering a word, instinctively feeling parched, wanting nothing more than a huge bucket of water, having narrowly escaped death.
Still alive…
Still not dead…
Had the Last Words failed again? Or was the prophecy once again delayed?
