Lord of End of World

Lin Wenbo watched the young man peel off the skin of the giant snake and dig out the crystal, giving it to Song Haoran. The gold in his eyes faded for a moment and he could only suppress the sourness in his heart.

Gong Xiangyi, who looked blue and pale, looked very ugly as she stared at him. He openly told her, "Such a useful snake skin, how could they give you some? But I’ll give you a suggestion. If you really want an armor, you can get one. Just exchange it for the food in your space and Xiaoxin would definitely agree."

Thinking of the cute and bright look of the teenager, Lin Wenbo’s curved up as he smiled happily.

"No need!" Gong Xiangyi refused, her tone full of impatience and frustration. What was the use of only one set of armor? What she wanted was the whole piece of suede. With the suede, she could make at least 20 sets of armor. When they arrived at Long Snake Island, she could use the equipment and the materials in the space to recruit her own team members. Her past life’s fate and this life’s fate were gradually overlapping. In order to avoid repeating the previous tragedy, she had to gather her own strength.

Lin Wenbo faintly sneered and despised her, but she didn’t think her tone was bad as she was used to it by now.

At this time, Cao Yanan, who had been standing in the distance and had been watching Young Master Gong, went bright red as she saw Gong Xiangyi, who was as beautiful as Tao Li. She approached them while keeping her eyes on Gong Xiangyi. She awkwardly and with a sense of familiarity, patted Lin Wenbo’s shoulder and asked with a smile, "Wenbo, who’s this beauty? Give me an introduction?"

Lin Wenbo felt weird and glanced at Cao Yanan’s expression for a moment which looked much like that of a hooligan. Without waiting for him to open his mouth, Gong Xiangyi yelled, "Cao Yanan?" How could she be on Long Snake Island? Shouldn’t she be in Xiangcui Bay?

"Beauty knows me?" Cao Yanan fluttered her lashes and turned her eyes towards Gong Xiangyi’s beautiful face, but she felt strange for some reason.

"No, don’t know you. I just heard it from others." Gong Xiangyi tried to keep her tone flat, but looking at Cao Yanan’s hand on Lin Wenbo’s shoulder made her voice sound strained and poisonous. Aside from Gong Lixin, the person she hated the most was this woman in front of her. She looked glamorous, hot, cheerful and extraordinary. Wherever she went, she was like a small ball of sunshine, attracting the attention of the people around her and made her, Gong Xiangyi, look bleak. In her last life, it was her who took her position around Lin Wenbo.

Cao Yanan’s nerves were thick and strong and she didn’t notice Gong Xiangyi’s vicious eyes. Her hand was still on Lin Wenbo’s shoulder. Her attitude was familiar as if she was the daughter of the family. They seemed like a heroic and hearty couple as she stood with Lin Wenbo in such a way. No one would think otherwise. [1]

However, Gong Xiangyi didn’t think so. She saw Cao Yanan leaning against Lin Wenbo’s body. She remembered that the two had fought side by side in the past and their tacit understanding was one of her resentment buried deep in the bottom of her heart which now exploded violent like a volcano.

"Miss Cao, our base doesn’t accept strangers. When are you leaving?" After grinding her teeth, Gong Xiangyi stiffly asked with a distorted smile.

Cao Yanan finally felt her hostility, and hesitantly asked, "Are you driving me away? Did I do something to make you hate me?"

Lin Wenbo sighed in his heart and knew that Gong Xiangyi must have fallen into her delusions again and felt like he had to speak up for poor Cao Yanan’s sake. "Xiangyi, Cao Yanan is a new recruit in Xiaoxin’s team, our new companion, not a stranger."

Come again! Every time you had to speak up for her! Every time you would abandon me for her! In these past few days, Gong Xiangyi had been feeling uneasy. And now, she was too caught up in the bad memories of her last life. Her expression became even more distorted. She turned her head and looked at Lin Wenbo with eyes filled with fierce blame. It was as if she was staring at her mortal enemy and Lin Wenbo’s heart felt cold.

"Oh? It’s been less than two hours and she’s already not a stranger. Is she a lover then? Your feelings changed so fast!" The memories of her past life and this life intertwined and became a tangled mess, making it so that Gong Xiangyi was full of ups and downs and her tone was filled with disdain.

When her words fell, she paused and looked at Lin Wenbo with a sullen expression. In a commanding tone, she ordered, "Lin Wenbo, I want you to drive her away now!"

Cao Yanan couldn’t figure out what was going on and looked at the two arguing people as she stayed quiet. Lin Wenbo frowned and refused. "She’s a member of Xiaoxin’s team. I’m not qualified to chase her away."

"Don’t use Gong Lixin to make excuses! You just can’t bear to chase her away! Lin Wenbo, you ungrateful liar! Bastard!" Gong Xiangyi screamed and her emotions were on the verge of going out of control.

Her hysterical antics, Lin Wenbo had seen them plenty of times, but he didn’t know why but he felt particularly intolerant this time. Her hysterics were so unbearable that his anger that had accumulated in his heart for so long burned and it was difficult to control himself any longer. "Gong Xiangyi, have you said enough? You, b***, you are a mad woman! I am sick of taking care of you!" His light golden eyes glowed with a faint cold light and disgust as she glared at Gong Xiangyi with hatred before pulling Cao Yanan away.

Staring at them holding hands, Gong Xiangyi’s eyes were bloodshot and looked frightening. Her chest violently undulated up and down a few times before, with an iron face, she caught up and slapped Lin Wenbo across his cheek. This slap contained her resentment and hate from her last life and her uneasiness and anger from this life, and used the strength of her whole body as her hand slapped across Lin Wenbo’s cheeks, the latter immediately becoming red and swollen.

Their quarrel was very loud and attracted the attention of many people. With the sound of a loud slap, the camp became quiet. After a few seconds, the people started murmuring as they all sympathized with Lin Wenbo. Gong Xiangyi’s character was weird and her mood was unpredictable. Coupled with her snobbish and arrogant temper, her popularity among the people from the base was very poor. If there was a dispute between the two, no one would sympathize with her. On the contrary, Lin Wenbo had endured a lot, especially as the leader of group three and often went to teach her lesson, but she refused to listen.

Lin Wenbo slowly turned his face and stared at Gong Xiangyi. His light golden eyes gradually deepened in colour into deep gold eyes and his indifference was set aside for cold, suffocating anger. This was the first time that he showed his ruthless side in front of Gong Xiangyi. He already had enough and no longer wanted to hold it in.

Gong Xiangyi was stunned at the sight of him and she unconsciously stepped back. The red palm on his face stood out and she remembered the negative emotions in her heart and quickly rekindled her anger. She guiltily said, "Lin Wenbo, I’m fed up. Let’s break up!"

Lin Wenbo’s deep golden eyes were set on her and stared at her like two bottomless abysses where none of his emotions could be seen. Silence lasted for a long time and he cautiously opened his mouth and asked, "Break up? Gong Xiangyi, are you sure?"

"Yes!" Gong Xiangyi struggled in her heart, but her mouth replied immediately.

"Alright, as you wish!" Lin Wenbo nodded and finally, with disdain, turned away indifferently.

Gong Xiangyi saw that he agreed too easily and didn’t even hesitate or try to win her back which greatly hurt her self-esteem. She also thought that this quarrel would be like all the other ones in the past: as long as she wanted to ’break up’, Lin Wenbo would always become afraid and try to comprise before they returned to being fiancés. She didn’t expect that Lin Wenbo’s reaction this time would be to leave without another word!

Gong Xiangyi stayed in the same place for a while. After a while, she felt the ridiculing eyes of the other people around her. She suppressed her panic and looked at Cao Yanan with hate before turning and running away. Even if she hated Cao Yanan to death, she knew that she didn’t have the ability to do anything about it.

Cao Yanan patted her chest and finally recovered from that argument. She felt that she was unlucky. Le Jia and Yang Xiaoxue came over and patted her shoulders on the left and right and asked, "What’s the matter? Did you try to hook up with someone but ended up provoking someone else? You know, can’t you not try and split up couples? We just joined so don’t cause trouble!"

"I didn’t!" Cao Yanan grabbed Le Jia’s hand and pinched her, lamenting, "I haven’t hooked up with anyone yet, but the person still got angry! I myself don’t understand the situation! I don’t know what she has against me, but I think she’s mentally ill!"

Yang Xiaoxue nodded and whispered. "That’s right. I just inquired about it. That woman is Young Master Gong’s sister and Lin Wenbo’s fiancée. Because of her ability to predict the future, sometimes she can’t figure out the difference between dream and reality and is a very dangerous person. Later, stay far away from her. She just looked at you with eyes full of poison. She must really hate you!"

"Hate, hate all she wants! Why should I be afraid of her?" Cao Yanan waved her hand and sighed. "It’s a pity that such a beautiful woman is sick in the head. Such a pity!"

Le Jia and Yang Xiaoxue rolled their eyes and twisted the soft flesh around her waist.

When the parties left, Father Gong who stood not far away from the scene looked at Grandfather Lin and whispered, "Old man, blame me if you must. I didn’t educate my daughter well and I’ve caused trouble for your grandson Wenbo. They might as well separate, she doesn’t even see how privileged she is."

Lin Mao smiled and waved it off, but his heart felt relieved for his grandson.

Father Gong walked into her daughter’s tent, wanting to talk to her. Grandfather Lin also walked towards his grandson’s tent. He saw Gong Lixin’s eyes wide open with worry going in. He lowered his head, smiled and turned away. Although he fell out with the daughter of the Gong family, but the relationship between his grandson and Gong family’s son was actually quite deep, which was good and made him feel relieved.

When Gong Lixin walked into the tent, Lin Wenbo was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his head was lowered and his cheeks were hidden in the shadows, making it so that one couldn’t see his expression and felt that he was very bleak.

"Big brother Lin, does your face still hurt?" Gong Lixin sat next to him and reached out carefully to rub half of his face. In Gong Lixin’s mind, a woman was a man’s vassal and could be dealt with by a man. It was a shameful disgrace to see Big Brother Lin not only be abandoned, but also being beat in front of everyone. The pity for Big Brother Lin came out like a flood.

"Xiaoxin?" Lin Wenbo suddenly looked up and murmured. His light golden eyes were alive and filled with brilliance the moment when he saw the young man. He held the hands of the youth to his face and pulled him into his arms to hug him with all his strength.

Gong Lixin’s cleverly settled into his arms without any struggle. When Lin Wenbo’s frantic heartbeat subsided, he slowly spoke up. "Big Brother Lin, don’t be sad because of Gong Xiangyi. It’s not worth it! Even if you can’t be my brother-in-law, you will always be my big brother! Don’t let what happen with Gong Xiangyi affect us." In the memory of the original owner of his body, Lin Wenbo was kind to Gong Lixin because he was going to become his ’brother-in-law’, so he said this as he was afraid that Lin Wenbo would alienate him because of his broken relationship.

"Hn, that’s good! You will always be my little brother!" Lin Wenbo whispered as he held him like a treasure and looked at the top of the teenager’s head with fondness. The bitterness in his heart pitter pattered a bit and deep down, in order to relieve itself, the beast bound at the bottom of his heart wanted to scream and break away from its heavy shackles, wanting to swallow up his only remaining concerns.
