The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 288 The 'Savior' Who Fell From the Sky (2 Updates)
"Hahahaha……"

Suddenly, a series of terrifying laughs echoed from the sky, striking straight to the heart of everyone.

Wearing night vision goggles, they saw wisps of black mist approaching them.

Soon, they also felt what their companions who had overturned in front of them were feeling; the sudden feeling of suffocation made them lose all resistance.

"Hehehe... Gotcha..."

The head of the bodyguards pressed the button on his body with difficulty. Even if they all died here, the enemy would not be able to harm the target they were protecting.

Once pressed, both the vehicle Dr. Yu is in and the vehicle containing the equipment will be locked, unless opened from the inside...

Soon, a scene that enraged him unfolded: the car doors, which had been locked, were suddenly and easily opened.

The one who opened the door was Dr. Yu's assistant, his most prized student, Sun Qian, who exuded the aura of a 'femme fatale'.

Meanwhile, Dr. Yu's neck was being casually choked by Sun Qian.

The other people in the car were also Dr. Yu's students and core members of the archaeological team.

Seeing their senior sister choking their teacher, everyone was both shocked and frightened.

"Senior Sister Sun, what are you doing!"

Sun Qian took off her thick, black-rimmed glasses that she always wore. Her face, which was otherwise unremarkable, became unusually eerie because of the unrestrained look in her eyes.

"At a time like this, you still ask such questions? You're incredibly stupid."

Dr. Yu's face remained expressionless, as if he wasn't the one being choked.

"The teacher doesn't seem surprised at all?"

Looking at Sun Qian's obvious change, Dr. Yu was still very sad, even though he had been mentally prepared, but he didn't show it.

“In the previous few project leaks, I didn’t want to believe that any of you were responsible. Even when the higher-ups demanded a thorough investigation, I resisted the pressure, hoping to bring you back to the right path.”

This time, I made a solemn pledge to my superiors: as long as this project is successfully completed, I will take full responsibility for the previous leak and guarantee your future…”

Dr. Yu didn't finish his sentence, but everyone present understood.

Dr. Yu wanted to give the student who had gone astray a chance to correct his mistakes, but in the end, he misplaced his trust.

Sun Qian remained unmoved, only letting out a cold snort: "Who cares about your charity? I am clearly exceptionally capable, but just because I am a woman, you hypocritical bastards suppress me."

If you really care about students as much as you say, then why won't you give me your connections instead of just making me your assistant?

In the end, you're just a hypocrite. You're afraid I'll surpass you, and even more afraid I'll take your place. Who wants to be your assistant?

I, Sun Qian, am determined to be number one! Whoever dares to stand in my way, I'll kill them!

The others, seeing their usually taciturn and dull senior speaking with such madness, were all incredulous.

“Your juniors have never wronged you. Let them go, and I will do whatever you want with them.”

"teacher!"

"teacher!"

"teacher!"

The group watched in unison, worried as Sun Qian pinched Dr. Yu's hand, fearing she might accidentally kill her teacher.

Dr. Yu closed his eyes, seemingly having given up hope.

Sun Qian is very satisfied with the current situation.

Especially when she thought about Dr. Yu's previous evaluation of her, saying that she was biased and not yet suitable for independently leading a project, she felt a surge of resentment. In the end, wasn't he just afraid that she would replace him? How hypocritical.

Now that this hypocritical person who was hindering her future was about to die, Sun Qian felt relieved.

“I also wanted to keep them, but unfortunately, they are not on my side. How could I keep them? Besides, do you think I would be so stupid as to leave them alive to accuse me?”
Soon, Kyoto University will receive news that the core members of the archaeological team were ambushed and killed. The entire team fought desperately. I fell into a ditch and survived, but the rest were all wiped out.

How about this story? Then, I'll be the only core member left on the archaeological project in the Northwest.

No one expected Sun Qian to be so ruthless, capable of doing such a thing just to become the project leader.

"You are crazy!"

"Sun Qian, you'll get your comeuppance!"

"Even if you kill me here today, my family will never let you get away with it."

……

The curses sounded particularly eerie on such a night, but Sun Qian didn't care at all. When she agreed to cooperate with those people, she had already lost all interest.

"Are you done talking? If you are, then it's time to get going."

The bodyguards lying on the ground felt the suffocation getting stronger and stronger, and their vision went black.

The black mist floating in mid-air clearly looked like it was drooling, eager to enjoy its food.

The two little paper figures were hiding under the car, eating their fill of melon seeds.

Seeing that the evil spirit was about to get serious, it immediately flew out.

The master once said that the most important big shots only appear at the last crucial moment, which gives them a savior-like demeanor.

At this moment, it would be wonderful if there were some passionate background music, which would descend from the sky and save everyone from their predicament.

Most importantly, if we act now, even those from the Xuanmen sect won't be able to find fault with them, let alone smear their master.

Since there's no background music, we'll create our own. One of the little paper figures hums a melody in a cute, childlike voice: "Ta-da ta-da..."

The other little paper figure wasn't idle either, shouting angrily, "Hey! You little thief, take this punch from grandpa!"

He was sent flying by the little paper doll with a single punch, his face swelling up badly.

She was holding onto Dr. Yu's hand when a small paper doll humming its entrance theme tugged at her hand, and the doll snapped in two.

The more arrogant and domineering Sun Qian was just now, the more disheveled she is now.

In the instant she was knocked away, Dr. Yu's body was only slightly swayed before she regained her footing.

As for the black mist that rushed towards the bodyguards, hoping to devour their rich essence, it immediately retreated upon seeing the little paper figure.

But they were stopped by the little paper doll's teleportation.

"You little trash, how dare you act so arrogantly in front of me, and your laughter is so awful! If I don't teach you a lesson, where will I put my face?"

As he spoke, the little paper figure reached out and grabbed one of the wisps of black mist, then teleported to grab the other scattered black mists that were fleeing.

Despite the black mist moving extremely fast, they scattered and fled, but none of them escaped the pursuit of the little paper figure.

Having caught all the black mist, the little paper figure squeezed its round hands tightly.

"Hey, hey, hey..."

Finally, it managed to gather the black mist into several round beads that were even larger than its head.
