Chapter 347: The Horned Demon Race, Ye Bai Exposed!

~8 min read 1,438 words

Filthy, chaotic, wretched!

This was Ye Bai's first reaction after sneaking into the Ninth District!

Everywhere the naked eye could see, there was trash, vomit, and even excrement!

The buildings here were all considered damaged.

What was even more absurd was that as soon as Ye Bai entered, he saw a group of people on the road engaged in the most basic of brawls!

A group of beings who clearly possessed the strength of Fourth Grade or even Fifth Grade were fighting just like primitive people!

One person stabbed another with a Dagger, and another person shoved a Dagger into that person's rear end...

Most crucially, Ye Bai clearly saw that the reason this group was fighting was merely to compete for a piece of moldy bread in the very center...

"This Ninth District..."

The Four Saints were all silent at this moment.

It was clear they hadn't expected the Ninth District to be tragic to such a degree.

Seeing this, Ye Bai felt even less optimistic about the young girl's situation.

He also held even less hope that the young girl could become his aid in escaping Moyuan City.

"Let me try to save her and help her escape this sea of misery."

However, having seen the scene here, Ye Bai's thought of finding that young girl actually became stronger.

Although they were no longer of the same race.

But they were acquaintances after all! Former friends!

Knowing that the other party was in such an environment, how could he stand by and watch?

The only problem.

Was that Hehuan Shangren must already know he was in the Ninth District.

The reason he hadn't come to find him directly was because he hadn't encountered any danger, nor had he done anything to displease Hehuan Shangren; after a sweep of Mental Power, he likely hadn't paid any more attention.

But if he wanted to save someone and take them out, especially in this Ninth District, and came into conflict with others, things would be different; Hehuan Shangren would certainly appear out of his "fondness" for him.

He could only hope that the young girl, knowing the danger here, had hidden herself for the time being.

He went deep into the Ninth District.

Along the way, Ye Bai could be considered to have witnessed what the dark side of human nature was!

The earlier scene of a group of Fourth-grade and Fifth-grade Martial Artists fighting like madmen over a piece of bread was already child's play.

There were those who, because of a mouthful of water, were arm-in-arm brothers one second and suddenly backstabbing each other the next.

There were two people who were walking normally on the road, and just because one of them took an extra look at the other, they started fighting the next second.

The most miserable were the women in the Ninth District...

Ye Bai saw forced acts more than a dozen times along the way, regardless of whether those women were human or some Alien Race with strange appearances.

Ye Bai even saw a pregnant woman who, because she was too desperate, did not want her child to be born in this environment...

Ye Bai did not intervene in these matters; he could not manage them, nor should he.

"She, hasn't she already encountered danger?" Ever since entering the Ninth District, his worry for that old friend had only grown more intense.

Especially!

To Ye Bai's surprise.

Following the guidance, he went deeper into the Ninth District.

Ye Bai finally arrived at the very center of the Ninth District, in front of the only relatively intact building in the entire Ninth District!

An eight-story-high ancient-style building!

According to the text guidance of Wensheng, that young girl was inside here!

Inside the high building, various sounds that made one's imagination run wild continued incessantly.

The street outside the high building, unlike other parts of the Ninth District, was extremely clean, and not a single "sinful person" dared to pass by this entrance.

Only a dozen or so "sinful persons" were hiding a few hundred meters away from the high building, their eyes full of envy as they looked at it from afar!

"If only I could become a subordinate of Heihuang..."

"Following Heihuang, not only would I not need to scramble for food to survive like before, I could even live like a human again..."

"It's a pity, we are neither powerful Martial Artists nor very beautiful women; where would we have the chance to be with Heihuang..."

Ye Bai's Mental Power captured their conversation even more clearly!

And based on the information from their conversation, Ye Bai deduced that this high building was the territory of someone called Heihuang; this Heihuang should be the strongest among the sinful persons of the Ninth District, and in all likelihood, the local Emperor of the Ninth District.

"Has she been caught and brought here..."

"It makes sense; with her beauty, it is indeed easy for her to be coveted by others..."

"Looking at it this way, her situation is likely even worse than I thought!

Things are also very troublesome!"

Ye Bai let out a long sigh!

If he could take the young girl away without anyone noticing, that would undoubtedly be the optimal solution; Hehuan Shangren likely hadn't discovered this matter, and even if he asked, he could think of a way to bluff.

However, it was now confirmed that the young girl had been brought into the high building!

And there was no shortage of sinful persons at the peak of the First Step in the Ninth District.

As the local Emperor, Heihuang was certainly at the Second Step Dao Foundation Realm, and might even be a powerhouse among them!

If Ye Bai wanted to take the young girl away, he would inevitably come into conflict with the other party, which would inevitably alert Hehuan Shangren!

When the time came and Hehuan Shangren asked, he wouldn't be able to hide the fact that the young girl came from the same place as him...

If he could, Ye Bai really didn't want Hehuan Shangren to know about the situation on Blue Star!

"Master, why don't we just give up?"

"Anyway, she is no longer one of our Human Race..." Wu Zhangsheng even suggested at this moment.

Ye Bai was equally conflicted.

If he were a lone wolf, he would undoubtedly take action; he could not sit by and watch a former friend meet with misfortune.

However...

"Go in and take a look!" Ye Bai finally decided to give it a try!

If Wensheng appeared and could make that young girl use Invisibility in the shortest time possible, there would still be room to maneuver!

However.

Something that once again exceeded Ye Bai's expectations happened...

"Who?!"

He had only just stepped into the high-rise building.

Immediately after, despite him bearing the Wensheng characters and not even being detected by the Second Step demonic cultivators arranged by Hehuan Shangren to stand guard, an angry shout suddenly rang in his ears!

Then, a burly man over two meters tall, with skin pitch-black all over and bright red horns on his head, appeared not far from Ye Bai!

"Horned Demon Race..."

Seeing this burly man clearly, Ye Bai instantly recalled the information about the other party's race in his mind.

Over the past half month or so, it was true that Ye Bai had wandered around the city and failed to find a way to escape Moyuan City, but he had seen many Lower Grade races of the Xuanyuan World and learned information about these Lower Grade races.

The Horned Demon Race was precisely one of those Lower Grade races.

Do not be misled by the physique of this Alien Race and think they are good at melee combat; in reality, the abilities of this race all originate from the horns on their heads.

While capable of unleashing various elemental attacks, the horns also possess powerful detection capabilities!

Ye Bai realized instantly why he had been exposed, and his mood sank at once.

"I was careless; I should have inquired clearly first!

I didn't expect this Heihuang to not be of the Human Race, but of the Horned Demon Race!"

It is a fact that the Human Race is powerful within the Xuanyuan World.

The situation of the Alien Race is very precarious, and they lack strong experts.

Plus, those "sinners" said that following Heihuang would allow them to live like humans again.

Therefore, when Ye Bai learned there was a hegemon-level figure in the Ninth District, he subconsciously assumed them to be of the Human Race!

"Leave or..."
