The green-haired young man was headshot. Without head protection, being hit in the head by the Spider Queen meant certain death, even for Su Xiao.
The headless corpse fell, the green-haired young man died of greed and hesitation.
Su Xiao was indeed on the brink of death before, but there were too many Contractors around, and this green-haired Contractor hesitated whether to step forward.
When he finally made up his mind, his first target was the dark purple treasure chest.
The green-haired young man was too greedy; he not only wanted the dark purple treasure chest but coveted Su Xiao's entire equipment, especially the Dragon Slash in Su Xiao's hand. Had Su Xiao been in that situation, he would have killed first and then taken things.
Anyone can be greedy; it's a normal thing. Su Xiao has also been greedy, but before succumbing to greed, one must have self-awareness, knowing what can be coveted and what cannot.
