Chapter 70: Ye Bai Dies in Battle, Heroes, Walk Well!

Ye Bai's head was splitting with pain; for safety, he found a Man-Eating Ant burrow and hid inside to wait for the half-hour Reset.

"Swish, swish!"

Outside the burrow, a four-man squad composed of Junbu Zhanshi sped past!

"Da Huang, how is it? Any traces of that damned Evil Spirit?"

One of the Junbu Zhanshi suddenly asked.

"None!"

The Junbu Zhanshi named Da Huang shook his head.

It was none other than Huang Weiguo!

His Martial Arts Talent was of the detection type.

Therefore, except for special circumstances, he was always responsible for inspections at the city gate.

"Da Huang..." Chen Zhenyao, standing to the side, had an uneasy look in his eyes.

"I haven't found any traces of Brother Ye either."

Huang Weiguo shook his head again, this time with a long sigh.

When they learned that a Second Grade Peak Evil Spirit had appeared in the Wilderness, their hearts had also "thumped."

Ye Bai was the one they had sent out of the city!

Therefore, they were not only searching for the Evil Spirit along the way but also looking for Ye Bai.

However, they had already searched a large area and had persuaded many Jiangcheng Martial Artists they encountered on the road to return to Jiangcheng.

Yet, they still couldn't find Ye Bai!

"It's fine, Brother Ye is a man of fortune, he will be alright.

He is a Third Grade Peak genius, he still has to shine for Jiangcheng in the future; he won't die here."

Chen Zhenyao gave a bitter smile.

The squad continued forward, avoiding all those Alien Beasts...

Ye Bai was still waiting for the Reset...

Ten-plus minutes later, 【Reset】 became available, and he finished exploiting the bug and came out.

"Keep going, keep going!"

Fully restored to health, he just picked a random direction and continued his Alien Race hunting for the day.

The space inside the Storage Ring was too large!

There was absolutely no need to worry about not having enough room to pack things.

It was still very early in the day; if he worked hard, it was possible to buy Qin Churan a good car!

And the direction he chose at random happened to be an area that the Junbu Zhanshi squads had already searched and confirmed had no traces of Evil Spirits...

Evening!

At the Jiangcheng city gate!

Silence and solemnity were the only main themes now!

Liu Qingtian stood atop the city gate, quietly watching outside the city, his expression extremely ugly.

"So, that Second Grade Evil Spirit cannot be found?"

"With so many people, so many Martial Artists, having searched the entire Jiangcheng Wilderness, we can't even find a mere Second Grade Evil Spirit?!"

After a long while, his voice rang out.

Contrary to his usual kind image, a terrifying pressure permeated from him, like the force of a collapsing mountain!

This man had grown even stronger; he was truly very close to the Grandmaster Realm!

Many big figures from noble families couldn't help but exchange glances.

"Reporting to you, my lord, your subordinate suspects that the Evil Spirit is no longer in Jiangcheng; after it discovered we were looking for it, it fled to the Wilderness of other cities..."

A high-ranking member of the Dragon Guard gritted his teeth and reported.

"You mean to say that a Second Grade Evil Spirit not only threatened the safety of my Jiangcheng Martial Artists but also threatened the safety of Martial Artists in surrounding cities..."

The anger in Liu Qingtian's tone grew even more intense.

"Boom!" Suddenly, a blade appeared in his hand, and he slashed down.

Terrifying Qi and Blood condensed into the shape of an Embroidered Spring Blade, slashing fiercely toward a certain spot in the Wilderness!

Few people knew where this blood blade was slashing.

"Liu Qingtian, you have gone too far!!" Only then did a roar of anger quickly ring out above Jiangcheng!

"Old Ghost, this is just the beginning!

From today on, if your little whelp kills one of my Human Race, I will kill ten of your race!"

"Do you really think that because I have kept the agreement and haven't left the city all these years, I can no longer lift my blade??"

Liu Qingtian's white hair flew wildly!

It directly silenced the owner of that angry roar, and only after a long while did they leave behind a sentence, "Human Race, laughable!"

Liu Qingtian just assumed that the old turtle was furious, and after calming his emotions, he asked his subordinate:

"Tally up the casualties of our Jiangcheng Martial Artists for today!"

"Then notify the surrounding cities overnight to begin a joint search tomorrow!"

He was already prepared to break the agreement.

However.

"Reporting to you, my lord, the currently confirmed number of casualties is... two."

The news reported by the subordinate was beyond Liu Qingtian's expectations.

"How is that possible?" The fury in his heart could not help but stall.

Before this, everyone had gone out to search.

And he had always assumed that Jiangcheng would lose at least a hundred civilian Martial Artists this time.

Usually, the casualties were never just two people!

That was the Evil Spirit Race, known for their deviousness!

"Sir, it is true, and these two people, after inspection, one died under the claws of an Alien Beast, and one was drained to death by a Succubus."

The subordinate added.

Liu Qingtian's old face felt a bit embarrassed.

Could it be that a Buddhist Evil Spirit had appeared?

Then what did the blade strike he had just unleashed count as?

At this moment, a document was passed into the subordinate's hand.

"Sir, there is a situation!

The latest statistics show that 99 percent of the Martial Artists who left the city this morning have returned, but one person has yet to be found!"

"I knew it!" Liu Qingtian's anger rose again.

Normally, one could call it a disappearance, but with Evil Spirits on the prowl, it could only be death in battle!

"What is this Martial Artist's name? Have his family members arrived?"

"He, he is called Ye Bai..." The subordinate took a careful look, his voice becoming hesitant.

"Swish!" Liu Qingtian fell silent.

He did not think it was a case of the same name.

Among the ten million people in Jiangcheng, there were indeed many called Ye Bai, yet there was only one who could make his subordinate suddenly hesitate...

Combined with some things he had investigated.

"So, this is the reason that old ghost said humans are ridiculous."

"The Evil Spirit's escape was no accident, and that Evil Spirit did not go to other cities, because it came specifically to kill little friend Ye Bai..."

Liu Qingtian's back hunched over.

He had originally thought that by letting Ye Bai join the Genius Camp, he could keep Ye Bai safe!

"Notify little friend Ye's family.

Then issue an announcement; the danger of the Evil Spirit has been lifted. Just say that Ye Bai perished together with that Evil Spirit, and let that child rest in glory..." Speaking again, Liu Qingtian's tone was incomparably desolate.

The announcement was also issued very quickly.

"Shock! The threat of the Evil Spirit has been lifted, and there was only one victim in this incident, Ye Bai!?"

"Which Ye Bai?"

"Which one could it be? It must be the one from Third High School.

Didn't you read the specific content of the announcement? There is only one Ye Bai in Jiangcheng capable of perishing together with that Evil Spirit!"

"This is such a pity. Ye Bai only awakened his talent half a year ago, and now he was already Third Grade Peak. I always thought he could grow to the height of Director Liu, or even become a Grandmaster..."

"But if it weren't for Ye Bai, many people would have died this time..."

"Hero, go in peace!"

"Hero, go in peace!" ×99!

These were the comments under the latest announcement.

Because Ye Bai was already famous, many people felt heartfelt grief!

Even the geniuses of the Genius Camp.

Most of them had been dissatisfied with Ye Bai yesterday because of the incident that caused a sensation throughout the city.

They had thought that once the Genius Camp officially began, they would expose Ye Bai's true colors.

"Ye Bai actually perished together with the Evil Spirit Race..."

"He must have wanted to protect the other Martial Artists in Jiangcheng, right? Someone who could counter-kill a Fourth Grade, even if he wasn't a match, could have escaped, right?"

"Truly foolish. Even though he had decent talent, I have to say, he was a character...

As the ace, I am convinced!"

After learning about the announcement, more than half of these people were convinced!

And they silently posted a sentence below the thread.

"Hero, go in peace!"

"Ye Bai, dead??"

"He, he perished together with the Evil Spirit Race!?"

"How could it be like this?"

"It's impossible, right..."

On Xi Mengyue's side.

She was still at Third High School, having watched Li Qingqing for the entire day.

She had also prayed to Lord Wensheng for an entire day.

The moment she saw the announcement, her Heaven collapsed.

Such a good child, clearly.

Clearly the Wilderness is so vast, the probability of Ye Bai running into the Evil Spirit Race is very, very small!

"Bang!"

The one most out of control, however, was Li Qingqing inside the training room...

A beautiful figure suddenly burst through the door!
