Chapter 646

Slain a True Name-level?

Li Yao's words left Lingxin frozen in place.

This was something it didn't even dare to imagine.

But it didn't doubt Li Yao in the slightest.

A hint of yearning appeared in its eyes as it asked:

"Li Yao, is your tribe as strong as you?"

"Uh," Li Yao paused, "I don't know, maybe about the same."

"Wow! Your tribe is so amazing!"

Unknowingly,

the color on Lingxin's body changed from purple to deep blue.

It was genuinely happy for Li Yao,

being able to do what he wanted to do.

Li Yao laughed softly: "I think your tribe is the amazing one."

Li Yao had once used Appraisal.

The Floating Water Spirit tribe was almost entirely ordinary monsters,

and the patriarch was only a reinforced monster,

not even counting as elite-level.

The gap with True Name-level

was like the difference between heaven and earth!

"Being able to find a way to survive in such a harsh environment," Li Yao said with genuine admiration.

Lingxin seemed to be touched by what Li Yao said.

It looked up at the many little water spirits playing and frolicking in the habitat

and said gloomily: "To survive, we sacrificed our freedom."

Hearing this, Li Yao was startled.

"Sorry."

Survival and freedom—this was indeed a cruel choice

placed before the Floating Water Spirit tribe.

"Why are you apologizing?" Lingxin asked, confused.

"It's nothing," Li Yao shook his head and changed the subject, "Do you want to know about the outside world?"

"I do!"

"I don't know much about the Abyss, but I'll tell you about the world where my tribe lives."

Li Yao told it like a story,

describing the blue sky, white clouds, mountains, and seas as best he could.

Even though Li Yao didn't have much talent for it,

Lingxin listened extremely attentively.

A few hours later,

a breeze blew past.

The Floating Water Spirit tribe all came to the lakeside to see Li Yao and the others off.

The old patriarch came to Li Yao, and the water flow touched Li Yao.

"I think you need a guide."

Lingxin floated out from the Floating Water Spirit tribe.

"I appreciate the thought," Li Yao refused without hesitation.

Li Yao didn't think there would be any danger on this road,

nothing more than wasting some time and energy.

Having Lingxin lead the way would be much faster,

but it would also put Lingxin in danger.

The patriarch spoke: "The wind stops and starts; are you sure you can find the exit within twelve hours?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned.

If they couldn't find it, they would have to wait another two days.

Being inside a monster's body—what a terrifying situation!

They didn't want to stay for even a moment.

At the same time,

they also knew what Captain Li Yao meant

and were equally worried about Lingxin's safety.

For a moment, they looked at Captain Li Yao, hesitating.

The patriarch continued: "Please give us a chance to repay your kindness."

Those flashlights could at least help the Floating Water Spirit tribe have a hundred days of light,

and for the Floating Water Spirit tribe to find so many light sources,

it would cost at least ten lives!

Li Yao laughed: "I can take Lingxin, on the condition that you all come together."

"Follow me together and leave the Flame Throne Crab's body!"

As soon as these words were spoken,

the scene fell into silence.

Li Yao could feel

the tentacle the patriarch had placed on him trembling slightly and uncontrollably.

The color of the Floating Water Spirit tribe kept changing between red and blue.

Fear?

Excitement?

Li Yao didn't know,

but he had already said what needed to be said.

How they chose was their own business.

Lingxin kept touching the old patriarch,

its pair of eyes full of anticipation.

After a long time,

the old patriarch finally spoke:

"To get out, we must pass the parasite leader hurdle."

"Sorry, I must be responsible for my tribe."

Just when Li Yao thought the other party was going to refuse,

a tribesman ran into that big tree

and took out a scroll.

The patriarch took it and handed it to Li Yao.
