Of course, Mo Yang didn’t actually take Sun XiaoGuai to the hospital. After carrying her into the luxurious sports car, he drove to an underground parking lot, leaving Tang Mian behind without letting him follow.
Inside the quiet underground parking lot, Sun XiaoGuai had already been knocked unconscious by Mo Yang. According to his estimation, it would take at least ten or twenty minutes for her to wake up. However, as he was about to turn off the car, a sudden movement caught him off guard, and a slender hand reached for his neck.
Mo Yang instinctively blocked Sun XiaoGuai’s hand, but he was surprised at the strength she exerted. It greatly exceeded his expectations. Despite that, he quickly subdued her and used his own necktie to tightly bind her hands together. Due to Sun XiaoGuai being restrained by the seatbelt, it saved Mo Yang some effort.
He looked at the young woman who was staring at him fiercely. Three seconds later, Mo Yang sneered. He casually unbuttoned his collar and said calmly, “You’re not Sun XiaoGuai.”
Sun XiaoGuai continued to glare at him, still struggling to attack Mo Yang. He chuckled and reached under his seat to pull out a long rope, securely tying her from head to toe while she watched in amazement. Only then did Sun XiaoGuai say her first words after waking up, “There’s a 0.001% chance of finding a rope under a car seat.”
Mo Yang laughed, his phoenix eyes slanting and looking handsome. “That just proves that I’m extraordinary. Besides, there are also handguns, crossbows, machetes, and certain secret things under my car seat. Calculate the likelihood of an ordinary person finding these.”
Sun XiaoGuai, or rather, 6117, fell silent. This man gave her a sense of danger. It wasn’t just because he seemed to possess the aura of a high-level guide, but more importantly, as a human, he made her feel threatened. His spiritual and willpower must be extremely high.
“So, you are Sun XiaoGuai’s guide, right?” Mo Yang’s tone was affirmative, but his expression was serious.
“Since when did guides have the ability to directly occupy the thoughts of those they guide and control their actions? This isn’t the peaceful and helpful behavior that your guides claimed to have.”
6117 felt a bit puzzled upon hearing this. Wait, when did their guide race become so lofty? They were never a race that pursued peace and was eager to help humans. They followed a survival law of internal struggle, and how could they be friendly to other creatures from different planets?
“…How could people be peaceful and friendly towards pigs?” 6117 directly mocked with this sentence. The implication was that from their perspective, humans were like pigs, so why bother with peace and friendliness?
The smile on Mo Yang’s face gradually disappeared.
Meanwhile, inside Mo Yang’s spiritual world, 006 was rolling its eyes irritably. You idiotic low-level guide, why would you speak the harsh truth like that?! Sure, you can say this to brainless low-level players, but you’ll get beaten up for saying such things to them, you know?!
Just as 006 finished grumbling, Mo Yang unexpectedly slapped Sun XiaoGuai on the head.
“Heh, so if we are pigs, are you ordinary humans? If I win over you, will you believe it or not?”
After saying this, Mo Yang didn’t waste any time and got straight to the point, “How did you take over Sun XiaoGuai’s mind and control her body? Does she still have her own thoughts? How long can you control her, and have you made her do anything?”
However, 6117 didn’t cooperate with Mo Yang and remained silent, bowing its head.
It wasn’t afraid of this human. Even if Mo Yang killed Sun XiaoGuai, it wouldn’t suffer heavy damage since it had already formed a master-servant contract with her. At most, it would lurk for a few days and find a new host. It felt that Sun XiaoGuai wasn’t obedient enough, nor did she possess any special abilities or talents, so her death would be fine.
However, 6117 didn’t remain silent for long because it suddenly felt a tremendous threat. It seemed like a powerful spiritual force enveloped it.
6117 raised its head abruptly. “This is your spiritual power?! Has your spiritual power reached level three?!”
Mo Yang condensed his spiritual power into numerous fine needles, surrounding Sun XiaoGuai’s head. If this spiritual power could manifest physically, it would appear as though her head was covered in spiky needles.
With a cold expression, Mo Yang stared at 6117. “Answer my questions, or before devouring you, I’ll use my spiritual power to attack you. Although I don’t know if it can severely harm you, you’re just the perfect experiment subject that I need. Since you came willingly, I can’t possibly decline, right?”
006 couldn’t hold back anymore at this moment.
[Hey! Host, calm down! We are all on the same side, right? No fight, no friendship. This guy doesn’t understand manners, let me teach it a lesson for you! Using spiritual power to attack is not worth it, you know? Spiritual power is precious, we could earn more Dream Coins instead, right?]
Saying this, 006 split into a small ball of light and entered Sun XiaoGuai’s mind. Although it’s unclear what it did to discipline 6117, the latter immediately became obedient after the small ball of light returned.

Mo Yang raised an eyebrow. He had no intention of devouring Sun XiaoGuai. Even if she wasn’t a good person, turning her into a brain-dead simpleton or making her his slave was going too far.
He didn’t have the right to decide others’ lives, nor did he have much enthusiasm for saving others. Sun XiaoGuai was an adult, and she had to face the consequences of her choices. He just wanted to know how she ended up like this. Initially, he was concerned that 6117 would interfere when he used the truth serum on Sun XiaoGuai, but now that it was cooperating, he could save the pretty potion for later.
“Why can you control Sun XiaoGuai’s body?”
6117 hung its head. “Sun XiaoGuai willingly signed the master-servant contract with me. I am the master, and she is the servant. Naturally, the master can control the servant.”
Although Mo Yang had speculated about this, hearing it from 6117 still felt incredible. “Is Sun XiaoGuai really willing to sign the master-servant contract? Didn’t you deceive or manipulate her into doing so?”
6117 raised its head and showed a disdainful expression. “We dream world guides never force contracts, they can’t be completed unless both parties willingly agree. She couldn’t bear the pain and punishment of every game failure and begged me to sign the contract with her. I only told her that once she signed the master-servant contract, the punishment for game failures could be offset with Dream Coins, and she agreed immediately.”
6117 looked at Mo Yang, as if asking: Can you blame me for this?
Mo Yang felt a bit stifled in his chest, a mix of sorrow and indignation. He took a deep breath and asked, “After signing the master-servant contract, you can freely control her?”
6117 just hesitated for a moment before shaking its head. “I can only control her for one hour a day.”
Mo Yang fell silent, his mind spinning rapidly.
“Besides the master-servant contract, do you have any other contracts with the hosts?” He recalled what Wan Mei had told him, about the red percentage numbers that appeared on the back of several players’ heads after their skulls were pried open. He subconsciously believed that those numbers didn’t just appear randomly, there must be certain conditions that triggered them.
To 6117’s surprise, it widened its eyes but didn’t say anything.
Mo Yang’s gaze turned cold again.
006 quickly tried to mediate, [Hey! It’s not a big deal, let me tell you since it won’t. Its permissions are limited, and it faces pressure from revealing such information to outsiders. But as a big shot guide like me, I have no such problem! I’ll tell you.]
[There are only two contracts between us guides and the hosts. One is the spiritual contract, and the other is the master-servant contract! The spiritual contract is a more equal one, it allows hosts to sell their spiritual power and life force to us for 100 Dream Coins per point of spiritual power. The hosts may not be interested, but many players are quite poor and want to buy cards, so they sign the spiritual contract with us! Nothing too serious.]
006 spoke casually, as if the spiritual contract was harmless.
However, Mo Yang grasped the key point immediately. He remembered that Wan Mei had told him that the percentage numbers on those people’s heads varied. He suspected that when the numbers reached one hundred percent, something unexpected would happen.
Mo Yang once again felt the hidden and sinister malice of the Dream World.
He sneered and asked 006, “When the spiritual contract reaches a certain level, can it transform into a master-servant contract?”
006 fell silent.
It was genuinely surprised that the host asked such a sharp and on-point question. It had learned about Wan Mei’s actions within the game from its interaction with 009. Therefore, it understood that Wan Mei had discovered the percentage numbers in the spiritual contracts. Thus, the clever host asked this question.
Oh dear, the host is so clever and capable that it sometimes makes it difficult for this high-level guide to handle, whenever this happens, it truly wishes to destroy the host’s brain and let them die. Unfortunately, they haven’t bound any contracts yet, and their relationship is currently equal and balanced.
The host’s high level of spiritual power and cunning mind make it a daunting opponent. If they were to engage in a fight, it might end up in the same dilemma as with 009. There’s a possibility that the host might not be able to kill it(006), but still, the host might end up killing it(006).
006’s silence was an admission of this fact.
At this moment, the atmosphere became extremely tense.
006 didn’t act like its usual self—flattering, fawning, or being smug while talking to Mo Yang. Both sides knew that they were completely opposed to each other, and there was almost no possibility of reconciliation between them.
“Uh, um?”
Sun XiaoGuai’s voice echoed inside the car once again, but this time, her eyes showed more human emotions.
“Uh, my head hurts… Where am I?”
Mo Yang glanced at her and replied, “In a parking lot. You can get off the car and leave now. Call a taxi to go back.”
Sun XiaoGuai looked at Mo Yang and suddenly recalled what happened at the film set earlier. For a moment, she was still a bit confused. “What? Aren’t we going to have lunch?”
Mo Yang didn’t know what to say when he saw Sun XiaoGuai’s silly and naive expression. He was contemplating how to save all of humanity and destroy the Dream World. Meanwhile, this fellow, who was also a player in the Dream World, didn’t even have a sense of crisis, asking him about lunch.
At this moment, Chairman Mo Yang felt that if all humans were like this, there was no point in saving them. They were all just intoxicated in their dreams and dying like supermen, it might as well let them be “devoured.” Since they willingly embraced their own downfall.
“I’m not in the mood now. Go back on your own. Also, be careful of your guide. Even if you signed a master-servant contract, it might not be impossible to break free. At least, you can try to resist and not let it control you all the time.”
When Sun XiaoGuai heard this, she fully woke up. Her face showed annoyance and disbelief. “You are also a player in the Dream World?! Why did you approach me? Are you trying to devour me?!!”
Mo Yang looked at Sun XiaoGuai, who suddenly became guarded and hostile towards him, with a malicious expression in her eyes. He couldn’t be bothered to continue talking with her.
He said again, “Get off the car. Don’t bother me. Also, I don’t care what you plan to do with the Dream World, but don’t have any designs on Tang Mian. I didn’t warn you last time, so I’ll assume you didn’t know. If you do anything to him again, I won’t care if I devour you or not.”
Sun XiaoGuai felt extremely embarrassed.
She had believed that she had encountered love at first sight, as such an outstanding man expressed his affection towards her in front of everyone. She was about to become the envy of all women, and for this, she even resisted 6117, enduring the mental punishment. But what was the result?
This man had been deceiving her from the beginning! He didn’t really have any affection for her; he was also a player in the Dream World, and he wanted to devour her, right? Just like how she had devoured Liu Meimei and made her a slave, he also wanted to make her his slave.
How could there be such despicable and shameless people?!
Sun XiaoGuai gritted her teeth as she thought, completely forgetting her own hypocrisy and scheming towards Liu Meimei.
Lowering her head, Sun XiaoGuai’s brain raced, and just as Mo Yang was impatiently preparing to kick her out of the car, she suddenly raised her head and grabbed something from her pocket, spraying it toward Mo Yang’s face.
At the first moment, Mo Yang didn’t completely dodge, but he reacted quickly and sneered, directly splashing Wan Mei’s truth serum on Sun XiaoGuai’s face.
Sun XiaoGuai screamed in confusion, but the next second, Mo Yang felt his head starting to feel heavy, while Sun XiaoGuai became completely stunned, looking like a fool.
Mo Yang gritted his teeth and managed to call Wan Mei, only saying “Come pick me up” before he couldn’t hold his phone anymore. He felt his mind buzzing and coldly sneered inwardly.
Damn it, he could even deal with Song Kefeng, and now he was actually defeated by a woman. This would definitely make Song Kefeng laugh for three days if it was revealed. He subconsciously knew that he was most dangerous at this moment. He had just torn apart with 006 in silence, and if 006 wanted to do something in the spiritual world at this moment, it would be difficult for him to resist.
Thus, even though he felt his mind buzzing and could barely resist falling asleep, he forced himself to remain calm and threatened 006 relentlessly.
“We haven’t reached the point of completely tearing our faces apart. If I die, you won’t find a better host than me. Among the guides, there must also be competition, right? Moreover, 009 is still with Wan Mei in my house. If you kill me, he will kill 009. If you keep a thread of hope now, we will also keep a thread of hope in the future.”
006 didn’t reply to Mo Yang’s words. However, it was indeed shaken by what Mo Yang said. It fully sensed the tremendous threat Mo Yang and Wan Mei posed to the Dream World after the exposure of the slave and mental contracts.
Even though they had devoured hundreds of planets with sentient life, it was the first time they encountered a planet where slave and spiritual contracts were discovered. The Earth was definitely the first.
Being discovered so early, it was possible that their Dream World would be completely overturned.
But Mo Yang’s words also made 006 hesitate. Mo Yang was indeed an extremely excellent host, and the Dream World had not yet entered the second invasion phase. If it killed its host now, it might die in the devouring during the second invasion phase. It really didn’t want to die, it had struggled to come this far. Even though it didn’t have any emotions towards the Dream World and other guides, it was extremely persistent in “surviving.”
Time passed by in 006’s inner struggle, while at the same time, 009 was trembling, facing the sudden evil and dangerous aura from his host.
“Go tell 006 that if it does anything it shouldn’t while Mo Yang is weak, I will destroy the entire Dream World at any cost and torture it.”
009: [????!!!] Oh no, what just happened? Weren’t we fine dissecting frogs earlier?
“Don’t doubt my words. I always do what I say.”
Wan Mei’s usually expressionless face appeared even colder, with a chilling gaze in his peach-blossom eyes. He walked out of his research room with large strides, and because of his speed, the white robe he wore billowed aggressively along the way, scaring everyone who saw him.
Almost everyone who saw him inside the research institute subconsciously stopped and dared not move until he got into a silver sports car. The car sped out of the research institute like silver lightning, causing researchers who saw him on the roadside to collectively breathe a sigh of relief. However, they quickly gathered together to discuss in hushed voices.
“Oh my God, that was terrifying! I’ve never seen Dr. Wan Mei with such a frightening expression before!”
“What happened? Dr. Wan Mei rarely leaves the institute!”
“Whimper… I used to think you were exaggerating when you said Dr. Wan Mei was a demon king, but just now, when he looked at me, I really thought I had turned into a dissected dead frog… Why was his aura so terrifying…”
The researchers discussed in hushed voices, and Director Zhao Kuai was about to go crazy.
“What did you say? Wan Mei just left the research institute? That kid suddenly went crazy!! I can’t believe it… Why are you still standing there? Go and chase after him! Let Long Xiang lead the team! Whether something happened to him or he did something to someone else, do you know how much loss it could cause!!”
As a result, countless curious onlookers in the city gathered to witness the spectacular scene of a “silver sports car speeding ahead with a line of black armored vehicles following behind.” Those who didn’t know thought they were filming a movie.
Captain Song Kefeng, who had just received a concerned citizen’s report: “…” He had an inexplicable sense of foreboding.
Author’s Note –
Song Kefeng: I have a bad feeling about this.
006: What a coincidence, I do too.
009: … It’s too frustrating, I have one too.
Sun XiaoGuai: I feel like I might not survive the next two chapters.
6117: Damn, the host is an idiot, ruining my plans!!
The current development is so exciting!!! Can’t wait to see what’s next!
Thank you for the chapter!
