### Chapter 347: Are You Stupid? The Dark Moon God is My Sister
Nightmare truly didn’t expect Bai Yu to dare to do this. Because to Bai Yu, her previous attack, which seemed unsolvable at first glance, actually had quite a few solutions—just a bit more troublesome. Yet, she went for the most risky option available.
Of course, it was also the quickest way to end the fight—if it worked, it would be a one-hit k*ll.
“Congratulations, you won.” Feeling the energy within her body rapidly fading, Nightmare gave up struggling.
She had anticipated this outcome. From the start, she never thought she would be able to k*ll Bai Yu in their conflict. She just tried to raise her odds as much as possible, even going as far as becoming a believer of the Dark Moon God.
Her earlier ambush on Bai Yu was also based on the Dark Moon God’s assistance; she originally intended to use the Evil God to cause Bai Yu some trouble, and it nicely delayed her growth.
Otherwise, Bai Yu was getting stronger too fast—changing every single day.
After she used the remnants of the Evil God to hold Bai Yu back, she thought the Dark Moon God could try to control Bai Yu. Even if it failed, it would still deal a heavy blow to Bai Yu. But she never expected that Bai Yu could turn those Evil God’s powers into her own!
What’s more outrageous was that she even managed to develop those powers even further, boosting her speed of growth instead!
After getting this information, Nightmare was in a hurry.
She couldn’t just stand by and watch Bai Yu grow stronger while she remained a mere spectator.
Time waits for no one, so how exactly could she deal with Bai Yu?
It was at this moment that she met Li Tianan and learned about his situation.
Based on this, she devised her plan, seizing the opportunity to eliminate Bai Yu before her powers grew to the point where even the Dark Moon God would be helpless.
With Li Tianan and the group of Gatekeepers and Evil Ghosts, it was just as Bai Yu had told him—it was a trap.
They were just waiting for Bai Yu to come knocking.
If Bai Yu didn’t show up, that was fine too; after killing Shen Shuyun and the others, she would open the Ghost Gate and have access to even more power to capture Zhao Mingyue.
With Zhao Mingyue around, dealing with Bai Yu wouldn’t be a problem.
No matter how she calculated, she never accounted for the stark difference in their strengths. Under these circumstances, Bai Yu was surprisingly familiar with the Dark Moon God’s capabilities.
It could only be said that fate was not on her side, siding with Bai Yu instead.
“What I said to the Dragon Lady was true, heh. Too bad I won’t get to see it; otherwise, I really wanted to see how you and the Dragon Lady would decide—whether you’d stay or she would.”
“Of course, if you had the strength to take down the Dark Moon God, then I wouldn’t have a word to say.”
“By the way, I’m really curious—what kind of relationship do you have with the Dark Moon God? Why are you so familiar with her?”
Nightmare recalled that her utter defeat wasn’t due to the Dark Moon God’s power being insufficient, but because it was ineffective against Bai Yu. Unfortunately, her own power was weak; she could easily handle Shen Shuyun and the others, but against Bai Yu? Forget it—Bai Yu’s physical strength would probably bounce back any attack.
“I joined the sc*m Game because of the Dark Moon God,” Bai Yu said flatly.
“I see, no wonder you’re so familiar with her,” Nightmare whispered. “You don’t really plan to go and k*ll her behind the Ghost Gate, do you? I suggest you don’t go and throw your life away. Your strength is indeed impressive, but you’re still far from being able to take her down.”
“If the old you were here, there might still be a chance; but the current you? Forget it.”
“Don’t look at me like this; I’m just a believer of hers, having borrowed a fraction of her power—less than one-third.”
“That guy is the real surprise the sc*m Game brought us, you get what I mean?”
“Anyway, whatever road you choose, I wish you success.”
Nightmare disappeared completely, devoured by Bai Yu.
In this situation, even if she wanted to revive, it was impossible.
Her soul had been consumed; no matter how many tricks she had left, they were useless.
The great dragon’s head vanished, merging into Bai Yu’s body. Bai Yu’s body didn’t seem to change much on the surface, yet the reality was that she had lost over seventy percent of her bl**d threads. For her identity as an Evil Ghost, that was quite serious, though not quite lethal yet.
The reason she was going all-in was fundamentally linked to the Dark Moon God.
You see, all the offerings Nightmare prepared were for the Dark Moon God, but they were absorbed by her. When the Dark Moon God realized this, she would undoubtedly drag Nightmare away, siphoning her life force to recover, all while Nightmare was over there giving her pointers.
In a one-on-one showdown, she might have to fight both the Dark Moon God and Nightmare at the same time.
To prevent such a catastrophic situation, she had to eliminate Nightmare and keep her separated so the Dark Moon God couldn’t take her away.
Otherwise, betting wouldn’t even be necessary.
Sure enough, just as she imagined, a staff in midair was sucked away by a strange force, disappearing into the illusory Ghost Gate.
It remained unknown whether Nightmare’s d*ath would be considered a loss for the Dark Moon God; after all, Nightmare had been recklessly using the Dark Moon God’s power, and those powers didn’t just appear out of nowhere.
That should count as something good; at least her significant expenditure had yielded some results.
On the ground, the massive Ghost Gate disappeared, leaving behind nothing but the wreckage of a battlefield. She didn’t even need to bother with the usual clean-up; all the Gatekeepers’ corpses and the cars they drove were completely assimilated by Nightmare’s moonlight.
Flying through the sky, she finally spotted Li Tianan’s daughter.
Nightmare had not even attempted to hide; she was simply tossed right there on the bridge.
Bai Yu swooped down, untied the bag on the bridge, and cradled the girl inside in a princess carry before gently landing.
At that moment, Shen Shuyun and the others, upon seeing Nightmare fully gone, rushed over from their hiding spots. If Bai Yu hadn’t finished so quickly, they would have long since vacated the scene, running as far as they could. When the time came, if Bai Yu won, they’d come back; if she lost, they’d hide in another city and never return, waiting for the sc*m Game’s judgment.
That way, they could at least enjoy life a bit longer.
Looking at the area essentially reduced to a “crater,” Shen Shuyun and the others fell silent.
The diameter was at least a kilometer, maybe two, and the land itself had been shaved off by an average of ten meters, with the deepest parts exceeding fifty meters. What sort of godly battle was this?
It looked like Nightmare had specifically protected Lu Liangting’s side; otherwise, Lu Liangting would have been long dead—either from being hit by the moonlight or crushed by the collapsing bridge.
All of this destruction was basically caused by Nightmare alone, which was terrifying. Even more terrifying was that Bai Yu had almost unharmed soloed her—what kind of strength did this little girl, standing only a meter and fifty tall, possess?
The bl**d threads were Bai Yu’s biggest consumption. From the bystanders’ perspective, Bai Yu indeed appeared to “unharmed solo” Nightmare, with dazzling maneuvers leading to the defeat of the Boss.
Watching Bai Yu return with the child, even Shen Shuyun, who thought she was quite familiar with Bai Yu, swallowed hard and didn’t dare to speak.
Only when Bai Yu got closer did she manage to squeeze out a line.
“Boss is amazing.”
That was truly incredible, earning her heartfelt respect.
Especially the woman standing at the edge; after witnessing tonight’s battle, all she could say was that her life was incredibly lucky.
Three days ago, they had brought Bai Yu out to discuss cooperation. At that time, Bai Yu had been wearing a cartoon-style dress with a big bow, combined with her deceitfully cute lolita appearance, so she couldn’t help but poke fun at Bai Yu.
Then she found herself being lifted and tossed away by Bai Yu using a tentacle.
Now looking back, Bai Yu had clearly held back; she simply couldn’t be bothered to compete with her.
Otherwise, even a hundred of her wouldn’t be enough for Bai Yu to take down.
Standing before Bai Yu, everyone appeared obedient, like little lambs.
In front of others or local forces, they prided themselves on being madwomen, doing things more recklessly. The Gatekeepers could attest to this.
But they were simply crazy, not stupid.
If we’re talking about “madness,” who could compare to the one standing here?
There was no contest.
God knows how such a fragile-looking one-meter-fifty frame could hold such immense power.
Indeed, one shouldn’t judge by appearances.
Because you never know if that loli you’re bullying is actually a tough little girl capable of tearing apart nightmares with one punch, causing the world to shake with her might.
Take Li Tianan for instance.
To be honest, if they went one-on-one against Li Tianan out there, they wouldn’t stand a chance.
Bai Yu scanned the crowd, her voice icy, “I’ve completed the tasks I promised you—the eleven redemption tasks; there can’t be more, nor can there be less.”
“Yes, yes, yes, Boss, rest assured! We will definitely arrange everything perfectly, and not just eleven—fifteen is also fine!” Shen Shuyun wiped away nonexistent sweat from her brow.
Previously, when Bai Yu said she wouldn’t leave them alone until they completed the eleven redemption tasks, she wasn’t joking.
“Lu Liangting is over there. You can go yourself.”
After tossing out those words, Bai Yu hugged the little girl and headed outside.
Whatever happened to Lu Liangting was no longer her concern; as long as he was alive, she was done with it. Even if they all took turns to deal with Lu Liangting tonight, it had nothing to do with her.
Upon hearing this, the surrounding madwomen’s eyes lit up.
This was a golden opportunity—saving a beauty; wouldn’t that instantly boost their favorability?
A group charged towards Lu Liangting, even starting to fight over who would wake him up first, leading to yet another chaotic brawl.
Of course, this time they held back; if they didn’t gather eleven redemption tasks, they’d all be done for.
It had to be said, previously thinking about completing the redemption tasks didn’t seem like a loss, but rather a good thing.
Now, they truly had no such thoughts.
Maybe fulfilling redemption tasks could indeed bring great benefits, but the process didn’t seem so “peaceful.”
It was just that this “redemption executor” had such a vicious style. No, it shouldn’t be said that her style didn’t fit; Bai Yu appeared relatively suitable on the surface, but internally, it was all over the place.
Thinking about it further, it did make sense—if the redemption executor wasn’t a bit tough, how were they supposed to complete their redemption tasks?
Everyone had their redemption tasks; how could individuals like Nightmare and the Dragon Lady be redeemed without some level of strength?
At that moment, Bai Yu was pondering the same question.
Could Nightmare even have a redemption task?
Would she even need someone to help her with it?
The answer to this question was destined to be lost; she had already helped Nightmare “completely” fulfill her redemption.
As she walked, Bai Yu suddenly stopped.
“Shen Shuyun.”
“Boss!”
That call instantly halted the brawl.
“Help me contact the Dragon Lady and have her pick me up.”
“On it!”
Shen Shuyun dug out her phone to call the Dragon Lady, delivering the good news and asking her to come pick up Bai Yu. After hanging up, the paused brawl resumed once more.
—
“Don’t worry; I told you, your Bai Yu will be fine.”
Before Shen Shuyun made the call, the Dragon Lady sat on the sofa, watching Zhao Mingyue who was holding an apple without eating it, absentmindedly watching TV which was actually just playing commercials.
Zhao Mingyue’s apple was full of tiny marks from her fingernails, a clear indication of her food wastage.
This directly reflected Zhao Mingyue’s inner tension.
It wasn’t her fault; she knew the enemies Bai Yu was up against this time were entirely different from the past; after all, this was a little mini-boss—there was real danger involved!
“Ahhh!” Dropping the apple, Zhao Mingyue leaned heavily against the sofa, covering her face with a cushion. After a moment, she looked at the Dragon Lady with a pitiful expression. “I’m so worried about Bai Yu! Aren’t you even a little worried?”
“Of course I’m worried; I just said don’t be overly anxious; consider your own health a bit,” the Dragon Lady replied, taking the now mangled apple Zhao Mingyue had discarded and peeling off the uneven skin with a kn*fe.
“To put it this way, Nightmare and your Bai Yu are old rivals; they’ve fought many, many times. But you see? Nightmare has never won once. Her little tricks may work against others, but they’re useless against Bai Yu.”
Just as Zhao Mingyue was about to speak, the Dragon Lady’s phone suddenly rang on the table.
This startled the Dragon Lady so much that she dropped the apple into the trash.
Seeing it was Shen Shuyun calling, she quickly answered.
Zhao Mingyue also leaned over, the two sisters listening to Shen Shuyun report the battle status, their expressions shifting from gloom to bright in an instant—quicker than flipping a book.
“Oh, oh, oh! Bai Yu won! Awesome!!!” Zhao Mingyue nearly bounced up in excitement.
“Sister, what are you doing? Let’s hurry up and pick up Bai Yu!”
“Okay, okay, I’m going! Just wait—what was I saying before…”
“Got it, got it! You’ve already said it once!”
All the way, the Dragon Lady nagged at Zhao Mingyue while speeding towards the outskirts of the city.
Seeing this outcome, she had already anticipated it; but upon actually hearing the news, she couldn’t help but feel excited.
It also felt a bit unreal.
Nightmare, that guy, really just died like that.
