Chapter 790: Taken Home by Bai Lei

Instantly, he charged in that direction.

The mantis man wanted to flee, but whether he got the chance depended on whether Ning Chen allowed it.

Wild winds rose around them, and the inexplicably appearing fireballs had already plunged everyone into shock.

Ning Chen had not wanted to make a big scene, so he had been holding back and not exploding.

Now, instead, the situation had escalated without end.

Other matters could be forgiven, but using Shiya to confuse him was truly unforgivable.

Ning Chen had also roughly understood the situation around them.

If he guessed correctly, the mantis men around here were most skilled at creating illusionary realms.

They would probe the thing you desired most deep within your heart and then transform into any form.

Thinking this, Ning Chen held back no longer; he rushed forward and forcefully hammered that mantis man.

The young brother beside him stood with mouth agape in shock; they had been hunting that mantis man for a long time.

Yet they had never found any leads.

Instead, the mantis men had multiplied, and despite mobilizing so many people, they had ultimately returned empty-handed.

Seeing this, the young brother believed Ning Chen's words; he must have come to save them.

When he looked again, the mantis man before him had been completely smashed into fragments.

They scattered messily on the ground, leaving not the slightest chance of survival.

At this moment, the anger in Ning Chen's eyes had not yet fully subsided, and he instinctively looked around.

This gaze made Lin Yi shiver involuntarily.

"Brother, good buddy, let me see quickly; are you injured?"

Hearing Lin Yi's words, the anger that had just risen in Ning Chen subsided.

The surroundings had returned to normal, and even the dark clouds had completely dispersed.

Ning Chen looked toward the position of the young brother behind him just now, only to see him suddenly panic.

But the next second, he suddenly walked to Ning Chen's side and knelt on the ground with a thud.

【Mother, this young brother... a man's knees hold gold; how could he kneel so easily?】

【I suppose he saw Brother Shiguang was too amazing; this is support for a strong person.】

【Perhaps he has something he needs Brother Shiguang to help with.】

Seeing this situation, Ning Chen hurriedly reached out and pulled the young brother up.

"What are you doing?"

Facing Ning Chen's question, that young brother burst into tears.

"I apologize for my rashness just now; can you help us eliminate these mantis men?"

Hearing the words of the person before him, Ning Chen fell into thought.

He guessed that coming here this time was precisely to resolve this matter.

Therefore, even if the person before him had not mentioned it, he would have helped anyway.

"Get up first; this place is unsafe, and the mantis men around here might return."

After hearing Ning Chen's words, that young brother wiped his eyes and then hurriedly stood up.

"My home is at the foot of the mountain; I will take you back first."

Ning Chen and Lin Yi shook their heads and followed behind.

What they did not notice was that as soon as they left, countless thin, tall objects sprouted from the ground behind them like bamboo shoots after rain.

They were staring with wide eyes in the direction they had departed.

"By the way, we have known each other for so long, yet I still do not know your name."

Hearing Lin Yi's inquiry, that young brother finally responded.

"My name is Bai Lei; my father and others call me Xiao Lei; if you do not mind, you may call me that too."

Having roughly perceived Ning Chen's strength, Bai Lei now looked at him with a face full of admiration.

【If this Bai Lei were a girl, she would probably offer herself in marriage, right?】

【If it were me, I would offer myself in marriage too; Brother Shiguang is handsome, wealthy, and deeply affectionate.】

【Stop talking nonsense; Brother Shiguang's heart holds only Shiya; otherwise, he would not be traveling the world according to his wish list.】

People in the live stream spoke one after another; when they looked again, they realized the three were already in the car.

The car that had been completely unable to start just now suddenly roared to life.

It seemed their appearance here this time was entirely destined.

Under Bai Lei's direction, the car smoothly drove to the foot of the mountain.

However, the moment Bai Lei saw the foot of the mountain, tears flowed once again.

This made Lin Yi somewhat strange; just as he was about to ask, he also noticed a situation.

The area at the mountain foot intersection was filled with people, clearly there to welcome Bai Lei and the others.

Until the car slowly stopped before those people, several older elders walked over.

Bai Lei directly pushed open the door, got out of the car, and then knelt before everyone once more.

"I'm sorry! Grandfather, Second Uncle..."

Bai Lei could not speak, so he only bowed heavily to the ground.

The leading elder's figure flickered, but he immediately pulled Bai Lei up.

"It is fate! This is all fate! It is not your fault, child."

Seeing this situation, Ning Chen and Lin Yi could only get out of the car and then greeted everyone present.

Seeing this, Bai Lei also hurriedly ran over, then pulled Ning Chen to stand before the old man.

"Grandpa, he is our savior; I just saw him crush that mantis man in an instant."

Ning Chen did not have many thoughts; suddenly being praised like this made him feel somewhat embarrassed.

Facing the shocked gazes of the people before him, he was also somewhat at a loss for words.

"Did you see it with your own eyes?"

Facing the old man's question, Bai Lei nodded heavily.

When they returned to Bai Lei's home, the surrounding villagers were also curious about what had happened.

At the same time, they all came over to take a look.

"Didn't the higher-ups send anyone to manage this situation?"

Facing Ning Chen's question, the old man shook his head.

"It's useless; batches of people have come, but the result has basically been that they were all lost on the mountain."

What?

This is enough to prove how ferocious that mantis man is.

"Do you know how that mantis man came to be?"

"He already existed when I was young; one could say that after fighting for so long, we have not completely annihilated him."

It could be seen that the old man's heart seemed extremely anxious, but after all, he is the pillar of this family.

No matter who falls, he cannot fall.
