C4 Is This Person Tired of Living??

Yueying raised her hand, signaling for everyone to halt.

"The Iron Tooth Wolf is mine. If you value your life, keep your distance and don't attack it without my say-so!"

"Once I've slain the Iron Tooth Wolf, you'll each receive a key. It will grant you passage through the stone door to the second level."

With those words, Yueying closed her eyes, inhaled deeply, and strode confidently toward the Iron Tooth Wolf, leaving an impression of valor for all to witness.

"She's so cool!"

"With her here, we're sure to conquer the Iron Tooth Wolf."

"You're so weak, even she can't save you!"

Yueying had already conquered the fifth level of the Devil Domain, having battled its monsters at every turn. The Iron Tooth Wolf posed no challenge, which is why she was called upon for assistance.

Responding to an invitation from her alma mater, Yueying had accepted the call.

The sound of her footsteps caught the Iron Tooth Wolf's attention. It turned, snarling, its lethal fangs on full display.

"Light Slash!"

Yueying charged at the Iron Tooth Wolf, nimbly evading its oncoming claws. With her Western Sword in hand, she launched her attack!

Three dazzling beams of white light sliced through the Iron Tooth Wolf's chest, the sword's blade penetrating its tough hide and dense muscle.

"The Iron Tooth Wolf's Blood Volume has dropped by 88 points."

"The Iron Tooth Wolf's Blood Volume has decreased by 176 points."

"The Iron Tooth Wolf's Blood Volume has plummeted by 752 points."

Yueying's relentless assault drained the Iron Tooth Wolf's Blood Volume to nothing. It collapsed with a thunderous crash!

Light Slash, Yueying's S-class Innate Skill, boasted formidable power.

Light Slash (Level S)

Level: 1

Experience: 378/1000

Energy Consumption: 10 vitality points

Cooldown: 60 seconds

Effect: Sword attacks against the target double in damage with each slash. The final slash results in a Critical Hit, inflicting massive damage!

Note: A Level 1 Light Slash delivers a triple slash to the target.

A Level 2 Light Slash unleashes a quintuple slash to the target.

A Level 3 Light Slash delivers ten consecutive strikes to its target.

A Level 4 Light Slash ups the ante with twenty consecutive strikes.

A Level 5 Light Slash unleashes a formidable fifty consecutive strikes.

Yueying stood poised behind the Iron Tooth Wolf, her sword sliding smoothly back into its sheath. Her grace captivated the onlookers, drawing gasps of admiration once more.

"She took down the Iron Tooth Wolf with a single move! Truly a genius in action! She's incredibly strong!"

"That's the might of a Level S Innate Skill for you! Absolutely terrifying!"

"My Level D Innate Skill feels utterly inferior in comparison!"

The Iron Tooth Wolf yielded five Low-Rank Red Devil Soul Spheres, three Low-Rank Green Devil Soul Spheres, two Low-Rank Yellow Devil Soul Spheres, and a Level D pair of boxing gloves.

As Yueying approached, the spoils spiraled into her backpack.

"You should have the key by now. Make your way through the stone gate quickly. New monsters will emerge in an hour."

Having briefed the group, Yueying opened her friends' channel.

"Sorry about that. I was just assisting some folks with the first-level monsters. It's wrapped up now, so I'll head to the fifth level to regroup with you all shortly."

Giant God responded, "No worries. We're here waiting for you at the fifth level's monster zone. You're a key player; we can't do this without you!"

Money Princess chimed in, "Ms. Yueying, you're so generous. Me? I wouldn't lift a finger unless they coughed up a million yuan for my troubles!"

"You're obsessed with money!" retorted the Violent Dragon King.

"I just love money! It brings me joy!" Money Princess declared unabashedly.

"Everyone, stay alert for ambushes. I've heard about a squad that got ambushed recently and was completely annihilated," warned Overnight Autumn.

Giant God concurred, "Overnight Autumn's right. Stay vigilant, everyone. And Yueying, watch your back too."

Yueying was about to respond when she sensed a shift in the atmosphere; the air grew dense, making it hard to breathe.

"This is a sign of new monsters appearing! But it hasn't been an hour yet..."

Yueying's face paled as she turned to see a black vortex erupt before her. In the blink of an eye, another Iron Tooth Wolf emerged, stepping through the swirling darkness.

"This Iron Tooth Wolf is unlike any I've seen before!"

The beast was larger, more vicious, and shrouded in a swirling black mist.

Yueying suddenly remembered a senior from the Devil Domain Administration mentioning the rare appearance of elite bosses.

An elite boss's power was unparalleled, equal to that of five regular bosses combined!

Historically, an elite boss had emerged on the 17th level of the Devil Domain. It took three teams from the Administration to take it down, with dozens of casualties. The battle was brutally intense.

Yueying never imagined she'd encounter such a formidable creature!

Even though this was only the first floor, she took the super monster very seriously.

The others froze in shock at the sight of another Iron Tooth Wolf, unsure of what to do.

"Run!" Yueying's cry snapped them out of their daze, and they scattered in panic.

Zhang Ze initially fled with the crowd but soon slipped back, a daring plan forming in his mind.

Yueying sent a quick message in the friends' channel: "I've encountered an elite boss!" She then closed the channel and charged at the elite Iron Tooth Wolf.

"Elite bosses are tough, but since it's from the first level, I can take it down. This is the perfect chance to get stronger!" Yueying's resolve hardened, inspired by the image of a person in her thoughts.

As the Iron Tooth Wolf sensed her approach, it pivoted and unleashed its massive, razor-sharp claws toward her.

Its claws seemed to slice through the very fabric of space!

This was the Iron Tooth Wolf's ability, Tear!

Yueying dodged frantically, but the beast's attacks were faster than she anticipated. She narrowly avoided three strikes, but the next two were inescapable!

A system alert chimed: "Yueying's Blood Volume has decreased by 170 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's Blood Volume has decreased by 147 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's health dropped by 115 points! (Bleeding)"

Every 10 seconds, Yueying would lose 1% of her health. Without stopping the bleeding, she was at risk of bleeding out!

Sweat poured down her face as pain wracked her body. Clenching her teeth, she persisted, swinging her Western Sword with precision and unleashing a Light Slash on the Elite Iron Tooth Wolf.

"The Elite Iron Tooth Wolf's health decreased by 33 points!"

"The Elite Iron Tooth Wolf's health decreased by 66 points!"

"The Elite Iron Tooth Wolf's health decreased by 199 points! (Critical Hit)"

Yueying couldn't help but think, "My attacks are barely scratching this Iron Tooth Wolf!"

With a furrowed brow, Yueying realized that even her strongest move, Light Slash, inflicted less than 300 points of damage on the Iron Tooth Wolf. How formidable was its defense?

As the Elite Iron Tooth Wolf lunged at Yueying, she sidestepped, unwittingly falling into its trap. A barrage of five black claw marks surged toward her.

"Yueying's health is reduced by 139 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's health is reduced by 145 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's health is reduced by 166 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's health is reduced by 174 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Yueying's health is reduced by 167 points! (Elite Iron Tooth Wolf)"

"Warning! Your health is critically low. Replenish it immediately!"

A system alert flashed before Yueying's eyes. She reached for her Blood-replenishing Medicine, but the Elite Iron Tooth Wolf wasn't about to let her heal.

The medicine required uninterrupted use to be effective; any disruption would render it useless.

"Is this the end for me?"

Desperation set in as Yueying gripped her sword, bracing for her last stand.

Out of nowhere, an arrow struck the Iron Tooth Wolf's forehead, its feathers still quivering.

"Just 3 points of damage? The Iron Tooth Wolf's defenses are rock-solid, but that's how I like it," Zhang Ze muttered as he stowed his bow and sprinted away. With a furious howl, the Elite Iron Tooth Wolf gave chase.

Yueying froze in shock. "Is he trying to save me?" she wondered. But her concern quickly turned to anger as she yelled, "Cut it out! You're just a rookie and you're taking on an elite monster. Have you got a death wish?"

She felt the urge to go after Zhang Ze, but she was still losing blood. She needed to act fast; otherwise, she'd either fall to the elite monster or bleed out.

"Don't you dare die on me, you idiot! I don't need the burden of owing someone a favor!" Yueying clenched her teeth, hastily wrapping a bandage to stem the bleeding. She then uncorked a bottle of Blood-replenishing Medicine and gulped it down, desperately waiting for her Blood Volume to replenish.

Just then, several figures were rapidly closing in from a distance.
