After leaving Zhang Lingyu's place, Lu Linglong looked at Su Xiaoqi with a conflicted expression.
*"Xiaoqi, if you keep giving me all the points, I'll feel guilty. We agreed on a **revolutionary friendship**—I can't hog all the rewards."*
*"From now on, you should take out more Quanxing members for yourself. Or… I can give some points back to you."*
Su Xiaoqi chuckled. *"No need. The value of the **Kaioken** isn't something points can measure. If anything, **I** got the better deal."*
Tokisaki Kurumi seized the moment. *"Darling, if you ever need points, you can have **all** of mine~"*
Zhu Zhuqing rolled her eyes. *"You don't even have **10,000 points**. What good would that do?"*
Kurumi pouted. *"Zhuqing, must you **always** undermine me? That **big-breasted cow** is our common enemy!"*
Zhu Zhuqing smirked. *"**Your** enemy, maybe. And if I let you run wild, who knows what you'd do? After all, you **are** the 'Worst Spirit.'"*
Kurumi giggled. *"That depends on who it is. For you guys—**especially darling**—I'd never be like that. I still need him to kill **Takamiya Mio** for me."*
Su Xiaoqi nodded. *"Then want to hunt Quanxing with me? Good chance to replenish your energy."*
Before Kurumi could answer, Zhu Zhuqing cut in. *"**You and Zhi Jinhua go.** We'll head back to rest. Don't stay out too late."*
Lu Linglong grinned at Zhi Jinhua. *"Hua'er, make them **pay**. No mercy."*
*"...Got it."*
Though it still felt surreal, Zhi Jinhua's anger flared as she recalled how these people had tormented her in the original story.
Su Xiaoqi handed her a **propeller beanie**. *"You know the area better. Lead the way."*
*"Okay."*
With that, the two of them flew down from Mount Longhu.
---
At the mountain's base, Zhi Jinhua pointed at a cluster of wooden huts. *"According to Gong Qing's memories and Xia He's intel, this should be their hideout."*
Su Xiaoqi nodded, landing and hiding nearby. *"Wait here. I need to refresh my memory on what those bastards look like."*
Ten minutes later, he returned. *"Got it. Stay put—I'll grab them."*
Zhi Jinhua hesitated. *"Be careful."*
The moment she said it, she realized how **pointless** that was. The Quanxing members were the ones who needed to worry.
Su Xiaoqi winked before darting forward.
Soon, **explosions** and **screams** erupted as bodies were hurled through the air like trash, landing in a groaning heap before Zhi Jinhua. Each bore deep, fist-shaped **dents** in their bodies.
Finally, Su Xiaoqi reappeared, dragging a **gold-chain-wearing fat man** by the collar.
*"Hua'er, this piece of trash tormented you the worst. The rest who bullied you and Linglong are here too—except two I accidentally killed."*
*"So… how do you want them to die?"*
*"J-Just kill them?"* Zhi Jinhua ventured weakly.
Su Xiaoqi sighed. For all her brilliance, Zhi Jinhua was **too soft**.
After executing the others, he dropped the fat man and **stabbed a knife through his hand**.
*"AAAGHHH! PLEASE! MERCY!"*
Su Xiaoqi ignored his wails, turning to Zhi Jinhua. *"Did Linglong tell you **how** this trash tortured you?"*
*"Y-Yes."*
*"LIES! I've never even **seen** you before!"* the fat man screamed.
Su Xiaoqi smirked. *"No need to remember. Once I reenact **everything** you did to her… it might jog your memory."*
---
What followed was a **one-sided massacre**.
In the original story, this man had **impaled Zhi Jinhua's hands with steel needles**, pinning her to the ground. Now, Su Xiaoqi **stabbed his hands repeatedly** with a knife.
Next, he **ripped out every strand of the man's hair**, then **crushed his legs underfoot**.
His brutality served two purposes: **vengeance for Zhi Jinhua**, and **justice for a man who deserved none**. That scene in the original had **enraged** fans—Su Xiaoqi remembered the flood of curses in the comments.
*"P-PLEASE! JUST KILL ME!"*
*"Hua'er, satisfied? If not, I can remove a few more… **parts**."*
Suddenly, Zhi Jinhua **burst into tears**, covering her face.
Lu Linglong had only described the torture—not **how broken** she must have been in that moment. But seeing Su Xiaoqi **avenge her so ruthlessly** overwhelmed her.
Her crying flustered Su Xiaoqi. *Did I go too far?*
Without hesitation, he **tossed the fat man into the air** and **vaporized him with a ki blast**.
*"Sorry… forgot girls might not handle gore well."*
Zhi Jinhua wiped her tears. *"Thank you, Su Xiaoqi."*
*"Friends don't need thanks. But Hua'er… you **really** need to toughen up. Or life will eat you alive."*
She nodded firmly. *"I'll change. I won't embarrass you or Linglong again."*
*"I believe in you. Let's head back after you calm down—unless you want them thinking **I** made you cry."*
Zhi Jinhua suddenly grinned. *"If they ask, I'll say **you bullied me**. Let's see how Zhuqing reacts~"*
Su Xiaoqi laughed. *"I said **toughen up**, not become **devious**!"*
---
Upon returning, they bid each other goodnight.
Lu Linglong, noticing Zhi Jinhua's smile, pounced. *"Hua'er! Was revenge **amazing**? Tell me how Xiaoqi killed them!"*
*"Linglong… thank you for introducing me to Su Xiaoqi. We'll **always** be best sisters."*
With that cryptic remark, Zhi Jinhua left for a **shower**, leaving Lu Linglong baffled.
*"We **just** showered! Why again?!"*
Meanwhile, Su Xiaoqi noted Sakata Gintoki's absence. *"Guess he's staying at Feng Shayu's… or somewhere **worse**."*
---
The next morning, Lu Linglong **bounced around cheerfully**, greeting everyone.
Between **dominating the tournament**, **killing Gong Qing**, and **recruiting Xia He**, she'd earned **100,000 points**—plus Su Xiaoqi's **80,000**, making her the **second-richest** in the group chat overnight.
Watching her **bother Zhuqing and Kurumi**, Su Xiaoqi turned to Zhi Jinhua. *"How long has she been like this?"*
*"Since midnight. Oh, you're out of rice—let me refill it."*
Just as Su Xiaoqi accepted the bowl—**Gintoki appeared**, alongside **Feng Shayu and Feng Xingtong**.
***CLATTER!***
Su Xiaoqi **dropped his bowl in shock**.
Lu Linglong **froze mid-celebration**.
Zhu Zhuqing, Tokisaki Kurumi, and Zhi Jinhua **gaped in disbelief**.
Trembling, Su Xiaoqi pointed at **Gintoki and Feng Shayu's intertwined arms**.
"What… WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!"
