Chapter 71: The Return of the
As soon as the news of Ye Bai's death in battle broke, the person most out of control was Li Qingqing!
"Bang!"
A burst of cold air erupted violently from her body!
Frost spread across the ground!
Then, she smashed directly through the training room door!
"Third Grade??"
"Qingqing, don't!"
Xi Mengyue felt the aura radiating from Li Qingqing; although shocked, she was even more panicked.
She realized that Li Qingqing had known about Ye Bai's accident since the morning.
She guessed what Li Qingqing wanted to do now!
She hurried to chase after Li Qingqing.
But she could not catch up.
It wasn't until the city gate that Li Qingqing was stopped by a Junbu Zhanshi, and she finally caught up.
"Qingqing, don't!
Ye Bai is already dead; if you leave the city now, you won't find him! You'll only get yourself killed too!"
"Ye Bai is not dead!" Li Qingqing's tone, however, carried not a shred of emotion.
Just as Xi Mengyue had guessed, she wanted to leave the city to find Ye Bai.
She hadn't gone out during the day because the city gates were closed, and she had no means to search for anyone.
Now, she didn't want to care about that anymore.
Ye Bai had promised her!
She still owed Ye Bai a kiss!
"School Beauty Li, calm down!" Wang Xiaopang's voice came at this moment; he had been guarding the city gate.
"Ye Bai, his spirit in Heaven would not agree to you going out now if he knew!"
Huang Weiguo and Chen Zhenyao saw Li Qingqing and also walked over, advising: "Sister-in-law, don't be rash!
It's almost six o'clock; if you go out now, you won't be able to come back!"
"We will help you find Brother Ye's corpse tomorrow!"
Li Qingqing's tone remained devoid of any emotion, "I said, Ye Bai is not dead! He will not die!"
If Ye Bai were dead, what would be the point of all her efforts over these years?
"Tap, tap." At this moment, another untimely sound of footsteps rang out.
"Qing, Qingqing, I'll go with you..."
A familiar figure appeared.
He had golden hair, but the pride that had always hung on his face was gone; he looked at Li Qingqing with a face full of hesitation.
Ning Yuan.
No one knew how much Ning Yuan's heart had suffered these past few days.
He had been hunting Alien Race outside the city like a madman!
Ning Feng was dead; he should have been happy, but Ye Bai had been able to reverse-slay a Fourth Grade!
He saw no hope of defeating Ye Bai!
He had just learned that Ye Bai was dead.
He subconsciously felt his opportunity had arrived.
Only someone sufficiently genius was worthy of Li Qingqing.
With Ye Bai dead, wasn't he the only one at Third High School worthy of Li Qingqing?
Given enough time, with his talent for growing stronger through slaughter, he could also become the First Genius of Jiangcheng!
"Get lost!" Li Qingqing's expression turned even colder.
"Ye Bai is already dead; no one knows where in the Wilderness he died. How long will it take for you to find him alone?" Ning Yuan felt uncomfortable, but he felt his chances of winning over Li Qingqing were even greater.
The more Li Qingqing broke down, the higher his success rate of usurping the nest would be!
After all, the best way to forget someone is to have a new lover!
However.
It was only two minutes until six o'clock.
"Quick, look over there, it seems someone is coming back!?"
A Junbu Zhanshi standing at the city gate suddenly exclaimed in astonishment.
"The mission is already over, how could anyone still be coming back..." another Junbu Zhanshi said subconsciously.
"Holy crap, there really is someone!"
Looking toward the outside of the city gate, this Junbu Zhanshi was stunned.
"Swish, swish!"
Then, more Junbu Zhanshi looked toward the outside of the city gate!
And then the Martial Artists remaining at the city gate.
Li Qingqing's body shook, staring fixedly at that figure in disbelief.
As did Wang Xiaopang, Xi Mengyue, Huang Weiguo, and Chen Zhenyao.
Even the eyes of Liu Qingtian revealed a look of tension.
The figure drew near.
A youth wearing casual clothes, with short, messy hair, and a ring on his left hand.
"Why, so many people?"
Seeing the formation at the city gate, the youth was stunned for a moment.
"You, are you human or a ghost?" a Junbu Zhanshi asked with a wary tone.
"Uh, I think I should be human?" the youth said.
"Pfft."
Liu Qingtian laughed.
The gloom in his heart was swept away in an instant!
"Good, good, good!"
"What a good Ye Bai, truly worthy of being the ace of this year's Genius Camp in my Jiangcheng!"
The person who arrived was none other than Ye Bai!
As always, he returned just in time for the closing of the city gates!
"Sir, are we not going to find Ye Bai to ask about the situation clearly?"
"What's the rush? Can the person run away? Haha!"
Liu Qingtian laughed even harder.
Subordinate: So?
Liu Qingtian was naturally puzzled as to how Ye Bai survived.
He could be certain that the Evil Spirit was targeting Ye Bai.
But for now, the stage should be left to the young man and woman below!
There were also many people who cared about Ye Bai!
……
"It really is Ye Bai! Not a ghost, nor a Succubus in disguise!"
"Good heavens, so much loot!"
"Soul Crystal... Ye Bai really killed that Evil Spirit!"
"My goodness, there's even a Fourth Grade Exotic Beast, awesome, awesome!"
Below the city gate.
Although Ye Bai did not know what the situation was, he first had to cooperate with the investigation.
The Junbu Zhanshi responsible for the inspection exclaimed repeatedly because of this.
While confirming that Ye Bai's identity was fine, it also caused a burst of exclamations from the crowd behind!
Everyone had originally thought they had seen many heaven-gifted geniuses, among whom there was no lack of monstrous existences.
Today they realized that Ye Bai was the true monster!
"It's one thing to kill a Fourth Grade Martial Artist while being Third Grade, but today Ye Bai also killed an Evil Spirit Race, and there is even a genuine Fourth Grade Exotic Beast in the loot!"
"I have only one question: who else?!"
Ye Bai did not pay attention to the commotion at the scene, "Um, everyone, can you tell me what exactly happened now?"
"Of course we can, Ye Bai, do you know you are freaking amazing?!"
However, the one who answered him was Wang Xiaopang, who squeezed out from the crowd.
He ran up laughing and gave Ye Bai a hug!
"Damn, I never imagined you could hold back such a big surprise for me and for everyone!"
"Ye Bai, welcome back!"
Xi Mengyue also came out, with tear stains still on her face.
Shed because she saw Ye Bai return safely.
"Ah, so you guys still haven't told me what's going on?"
Ye Bai was even more confused because of this.
He had vaguely guessed that everyone knew about his encounter with the Evil Spirit Race.
But the rest of the time he had been hunting as usual, nothing out of the ordinary.
He did not know how the news had spread back to Jiangcheng.
"No time to explain, before that, you had better think about how to coax the school beauty Li!"
However, Wang Xiaopang stepped back to the side.
The crowd dispersed.
Revealing the young girl whose coldness in her eyes had melted ever since she saw Ye Bai!
For the first time in front of outsiders, the coldness was gone!
"I, I shouldn't be dreaming, right?"
The young girl stood there quietly, her eyes unknowingly brimming with moisture.
"Qingqing, I'm sorry..."
"I made you worry."
Seeing Li Qingqing's appearance, Ye Bai had no heart to care about anything else and hurried over.
Heartache, guilt.
He should have come back sooner; he shouldn't have let Li Qingqing worry so much!
However.
Unexpectedly...
"Mmm..."
Li Qingqing moved...
So sweet.
So moist...
