Chapter 329: The Greatness of the Gods
"Miss Xi You'ai, men and women should not touch when handing or receiving items; please show some self-respect! How could you do such a thing?" Ye Lin asked, feigning ignorance.
"I didn't mean to... My hand just slipped by accident."
Xi You'ai felt a bit embarrassed by Ye Lin's question, her cheeks turning slightly red.
Seeing that Ye Lin truly had no reaction, Xi You'ai hurriedly pulled herself away from his embrace.
"Sorry, Ye Lin, I won't disturb you any further then."
Xi You'ai gave an apologetic smile and stood up, preparing to leave.
"No worries, feel free to come over and hang out often—oh, wait, I mean sit for a while."
Ye Lin wore a brilliant smile, then closed the main door directly.
Trying to test him with such petty tricks—they were still underestimating him.
Testing cadres with this? Which cadre couldn't withstand such a test?
After leaving Ye Lin's small wooden hut, Xi You'ai quickly arrived before Si Sui.
"How was it? Did he have any reaction?" Si Sui asked.
"None." Xi You'ai shook her head.
"None?" Si Sui frowned slightly. "Could it really not be him? But how could there be such a coincidence in this world?"
"This is bad, Lord Si Sui!"
At this moment, another person came running over in a panic.
"Lord Si Sui, more people have gone missing in the city!"
"Again?"
Si Sui's pupils constricted sharply, then he let out a cold snort and vanished from the spot.
Regardless of whether it was Ye Lin or not, as long as the culprit was caught, everything would naturally come to light!
Meanwhile, Ye Lin's main body on the other side continued to commit crimes despite the wind.
He knew very well that it was only a matter of time before he was caught by Si Sui.
After all, the City of God was only so big, and it was so easy to succeed purely because the people in the City of God had no guard against strangers.
Being in the City of God was equivalent to a wolf entering a sheepfold; he could directly eat at a buffet.
Therefore, Ye Lin had to race against time to improve his strength before Si Sui caught him, cherishing this hard-won opportunity.
I have to say, Lin Qi is indeed a good person!
If only he didn't make beef noodles.
In the blink of an eye, five days flashed by.
And as time passed, Ye Lin's main body clearly felt that it was becoming increasingly difficult to succeed.
Previously, he only needed a few words to trick the people of the City of God into standing still obediently for him to devour, but that didn't work anymore; now he had to use violence, knocking the other party unconscious before taking action.
The people of the City of God were clearly on guard against him.
Over these past few days, hundreds of living beings had died at Ye Lin's hands, and his level had soared all the way to level 72, not far from level 73.
Just as Ye Lin finished devouring a mass of fresh red flesh, a man with purple eyes appeared not far in front of him—it was none other than Si Sui.
"Finally blocked you."
Si Sui's tone lacked its usual gentleness; he stared at the face Ye Lin wore with the Phantom Mask, his brows furrowed deeply.
"You look very unfamiliar; I definitely haven't seen you before. How did you sneak into the City of God?"
Ye Lin let out a cold snort and said nothing.
Saying too much would only easily arouse Si Sui's suspicion; since he had been blocked by Si Sui, his leveling journey could only end here.
Although he was reluctant to part with the walking experience points in the City of God, Ye Lin knew very well that this place was no place to stay for long.
Boom!
Purple-red flames rose from Ye Lin's body, and the Phantom Mask that had accompanied him for so long was burned into a wisp of blue smoke by this high temperature, along with the flesh on Ye Lin's face, which was also scorched to a crisp, making his original appearance unrecognizable.
"Trying to destroy the evidence?"
Si Sui's pupils shrank, and he was about to move to stop him.
But at this moment, Ye Lin directly used the Disintegration Technique and vanished without a trace in an instant.
Only a pile of ashes from the burned Phantom Mask remained on the ground; when the wind blew, nothing was left.
Si Sui's expression was extremely ugly; heaven knows how much energy he had spent over the past few days tracking down the culprit of the missing persons cases.
He had finally managed to corner the culprit, only for the culprit to vanish on the spot!
"What kind of person has the ability to run amok in the City of God?"
Si Sui's expression shifted uncertainly; this feeling of punching cotton was extremely uncomfortable for him.
"Lord Si Sui, the statistics are out. During this period in the City of God, a total of 489 living beings have gone missing, an average of nearly a hundred per day."
And when he heard his subordinate report the specific number of missing persons, Si Sui almost spat out a mouthful of old blood.
For the entire City of God, this was an extremely heavy loss!
Si Sui slammed a fist into the towering giant tree in front of him, and the tree snapped in response; the anger in his heart was already burning fiercely.
"Lord Si Sui, Ye Lin wants to see you," the person beside him reported.
"Ye Lin?" Si Sui frowned slightly. "Bring him here."
Soon, Ye Lin's clone arrived before Si Sui, and he took a deep breath and said.
"Si Sui, I've lived in the City of God for a few days and had a simple experience; I like it here very much. One can be carefree here, letting go of all hatred and worries, and focus on enjoying life."
Then, Ye Lin changed the subject.
"However... the safety issues in the City of God are truly too serious. People go missing at every turn, and I'm very afraid that I'll be the next one, so I think you should send me back. Once the safety issues in the City of God are resolved, I will return to settle down."
Ye Lin's face was filled with fear.
Si Sui forced a smile onto his face.
"Ye Lin, rest assured, the culprit has just been dealt with by me; the City of God is very safe now."
"Oh? Dealt with by you? Where are they?" Ye Lin looked around curiously.
Si Sui's face turned green instantly.
Ye Lin asked with some hesitation: "There isn't even a corpse left, is there?"
Si Sui: "......"
Ye Lin looked terrified: "Then are you sure only one person was committing the crimes? There wouldn't be any accomplices, would there?"
Si Sui: "Enough, I'll send you away."
Si Sui raised his hand and made a gesture; Ye Lin's vision went black again, and when his sight recovered, he was already back in that small hut of Lin Qi's.
At this time, Guo Qin and Bai Si had both woken up, and the injuries on Guo Qin's body had mostly healed after these few days of quiet recovery.
"Little Boss! You're finally back!" Seeing Ye Lin, Guo Qin was pleasantly surprised, and the worry in Bai Si's eyes gradually faded away.
Seeing Ye Lin return, the corner of Lin Qi's mouth curled into a confident smile; he walked forward and patted Ye Lin on the shoulder.
"How is it? Have you felt the great power of the gods? Join the God Organization; the greatness of the gods needs no further words!"
