Chapter 144

~8 min read 1,441 words

Just as Xie Xiaoxia and her group were immersed in shock and unable to extricate themselves, unable to figure out what had happened, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly rang out.

"Ah!!!"

"It's my fault! It's all my fault! I'm the one who caused their deaths!"

Ye Lin struggled free from Xie Xiaoxia's back, his face full of self-reproach and annoyance.

Ye Lin was seen clutching his hair tightly, his face full of pain, tears swirling in his eye sockets.

"It must be that the demons who were chasing me returned for reinforcements, which is why Team B suffered such heavy casualties! They were even wiped out!"

"It's all my fault! If I could have delayed those demons for a little longer, everyone in Team B would definitely have survived! It's all because I was too weak that I caused their deaths! It's all my fault!"

Hearing Ye Lin's cries, everyone finally realized what was going on. Thinking about it now, this was indeed the most likely possibility!

No wonder there were no traces of any demons near Ye Lin when they found him; it turned out that all the demons who had been chasing Ye Lin had returned to reinforce the siege on Team B!

Thinking of this, everyone began to speak up for Ye Lin.

"Brother Ye, you don't have to blame yourself so much! You already did your best; this matter cannot be blamed on you. If you want to blame someone, blame those damned demons!"

"That's right! The ones who did the killing were those demons! What does it have to do with you? When we found you, you were already exhausted and unconscious; you don't need to blame yourself!"

"The most urgent task now is for us to escape, and then find a way to avenge the brothers of Team B who died. The dead are gone, and the living must go on. Brother Ye, pull yourself together!"

Listening to everyone's encouragement, Ye Lin's emotions finally calmed down a bit. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes full of hatred.

"You're right! Revenge! We can't let the brothers of Team B die in vain!"

Ye Lin stood up staggeringly and said fiercely.

"I want this Realm No. 79 to be free of any demons and any monsters, to comfort the spirits of our fallen compatriots in heaven!"

Xie Xiaoxia hurriedly stopped him.

"Ye Mushuang, I know you're very angry right now, and I am too, but you're still injured. Listen to me, let's leave first! We can come back for revenge after you've recovered from your injuries, okay?"

"No! Have you forgotten? I have a secret technique that can recover my injuries! I'll cover for you, you take the others and leave. I must avenge the people of Team B! They cannot die in vain!" Ye Lin shook his head, his eyes incomparably firm.

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lin staggered toward the exit.

"You demon bastards, pay with your lives!"

"Ice Whirlwind Spell!"

Countless terrifying, giant ice cones condensed under Ye Lin's control and whistled toward the front.

"It's you!"

Norris turned his head and recognized Ye Lin instantly. He wiped the traces of human blood from his face and spoke coldly.

"Throwing yourself into the net! If you want to seek death, I'll grant your wish!"

Norris clapped his hands together, and terrifying demonic energy whistled out like a demonic dragon, sweeping toward the ice cones in the sky.

The ice cones and demonic energy tangled together, canceling out each other's power and emitting terrifying energy fluctuations.

Norris was just about to continue his attack when he suddenly felt a sense of palpitation, as if some danger was quietly approaching.

He subconsciously raised his hand and waved it to the side, and several transparent threads coiled around his arm like bone-eating ants.

The threads were as sharp as blades, instantly causing his arm to seep blood.

"Star Puppet Thread?"

"There's another expert?"

Norris's vertical pupils narrowed slightly, and he turned his head to look at the other end of the threads; it was Xie Xiaoxia, with her cold expression.

"Ye Mushuang, leave here first! Once you've recovered from your injuries, there will definitely be a chance for revenge!" Xie Xiaoxia advised.

"If I leave just like this, then these people from Team B will have died in vain, and my conscience will be condemned for the rest of my life!" Ye Lin said righteously.

Then he turned around, his black eyes staring tightly at Xie Xiaoxia.

"Xiaoxia, do you trust me?"

Xie Xiaoxia was stunned for a moment, then nodded earnestly.

"I trust you!"

"Good! Then you take the people from Team A and leave quickly, leave this to me!" Ye Lin pointed at the exit and said.

"But..."

Xie Xiaoxia wanted to say something else, but at this moment, a pair of warm, large hands suddenly cupped Xie Xiaoxia's face, and Ye Lin stared earnestly into her eyes.

"Be good, listen to me. I won't lie to you, I will definitely get out alive! I can't let these people die in vain!"

Ye Lin's gentle voice rang in her ears, making Xie Xiaoxia's emotions surge uncontrollably.

"You must come out alive! After I send them all out, I'll come back to help you!"

Xie Xiaoxia ultimately chose to trust Ye Lin, and then she didn't hesitate at all, leading the members of Team A as they rushed toward the exit.

"Want to leave! No way!"

Norris shouted angrily and prepared to attack. Just then, ice wall after ice wall rose from the ground, blocking his path. At the same time, an ice blade containing intense cold air descended from the sky, slashing toward Norris.

Under the blessing of the Absolute Zero Domain, Ye Lin's ice-type skills were extremely terrifying; even Norris couldn't break through Ye Lin's offensive for a moment.

Seeing Xie Xiaoxia and her group disappear at the exit of Realm No. 79, Ye Lin finally let out a sigh of relief.

At the same time, Norris smashed through several ice walls like a bullet and appeared before Ye Lin.

Seeing that Xie Xiaoxia and the others had already left, Norris felt anger ignite in his heart and said to Ye Lin with a sinister tone.

"Kid, you are truly stupid! If that little girl had stayed here, I would still have had to be wary, but now, you've let your own helper leave first! You're dead! I will definitely make you taste every torture of the Demon Clan!"

As soon as Norris finished speaking, several demons surrounded Ye Lin with murderous intent.

"Why would you think that her leaving would be bad news for me? I was getting tired of acting."

Ye Lin stretched, and the injuries on his body healed as if they were new in an instant.

Watching this scene, Norris's vertical pupils shrank violently; this recovery speed was too terrifying! Even the Demon Clan couldn't possibly possess such a fast recovery speed!

But what shocked Norris even more was yet to come; he heard a sound of heavy objects being dragged from behind.

Norris looked back and saw a man with a face like a chiseled blade dragging a giant block of ice toward this side.

What left him even more dumbfounded was that there were actually many humans frozen inside that block of ice!

Those humans were lifelike, some even still keeping smiles on their faces, as if they had been frozen into ice sculptures in an instant.

Ye Lin approached the giant ice block, then raised his hand and pressed it onto the ice, directly activating Endless Devour!

In the time of a dozen breaths, that giant ice block was decomposed as if by an invisible swarm of insects and disappeared completely; disappearing along with it were the humans frozen inside the ice.

After devouring the giant ice block, Ye Lin didn't stop; instead, he set his sights on the members of Team B.

Ye Lin was like a diligent battlefield scavenger; wherever he went, the corpses and bloodstains would be cleaned up completely, and the aura on Ye Lin's body climbed steadily at this moment.

Norris retreated several steps in fear, looking at Ye Lin in horror; he finally understood what Ye Lin was doing!

"You! You actually devour your own kind, you are a devil!"

Even within the Demon Clan, cannibalism rarely occurred; only low-level monsters would devour each other.

Facing Norris's accusation, Ye Lin revealed a kind smile.

"I said it, I wouldn't let them die in vain. Don't worry, it will be your turn soon, and you won't die in vain either."
