Chapter 478: My Professional Panel Is in an Anime Style? Chapter 224

Manfred's eyes went wide, filled with utter disbelief.

The implication of those words was that all his years of effort had, in the end, only served to fulfill the other party — something even harder for him to accept than having his 【Hundred Aspects Avatar】 taken away.

What kind of joke is this?!

The bald man had only just begun to speak when Yize swallowed him whole.

"Burp—"

After doing all that, Yize couldn't help but let out a burp, then patted his belly.

After being trapped for so many years, how could he possibly have no grudge at all — what he was doing now was merely collecting some interest first.

Besides, he had once tried to make peace back then, but unfortunately the other side had not held back.

At this moment, Yize's thoughts were incomparably clear, and he felt that the pent-up frustration in his heart had mostly dissipated: "If the two of you, my lord and my lord, still feel it's not satisfying enough, then I can put on this little performance every day. Or perhaps the two of you would like to see something like a lingering-death-by-a-thousand-cuts act?"

"Of course, if the two of you worry that I'm merely putting on an act, then Lord Hewitt can also testify on my behalf."

Saying so, he turned his head to look at Hewitt and the seventh-tier professional from 【Immortal Evolution】, who were quietly watching him from afar: "The conditions Manfred offered earlier still stand. Afterwards, I will hand the materials over to the two of you, my lord."

Upon hearing this, the seventh-tier professional from 【Immortal Evolution】 first let out a cold snort, then vanished without a trace.

Hewitt, on the other hand, gave a slight shake of his head, then testified: "Yize and Manfred are no longer connected; the two of you may rest assured."

"I have offended you greatly in today's matter, so I shall take my leave first."

After leaving behind those two sentences, he likewise vanished without a trace.

Seeing this, Afra and Gavin understood in their hearts that what Yize said was most likely true — otherwise, those two people would not have reacted the way they just did.

After a brief silence, the bratty councilwoman said with a cold face, "I agree to your request, but with one additional clause: from today onward, everything about you belongs to the Federation."

". Fine."

When there are too many lice, one stops itching — Yize was already willing to sign a black-slave contract, so one more harsh demand like this was nothing to him; thus he agreed without much thought.

At this moment, Yize was savoring his long-lost freedom, yet his mind couldn't help but drift to Li Ang.

'I can't afford to offend Aeolus Logistics, and most likely—'

'Forget it, I'll just treat it as compensation, and I can probe a little while I'm at it.'

Thinking thus, the alchemy master flicked a slender thread of spider silk from his fingertip, probing toward the void.

Elsewhere.

Li Ang had naturally noticed that the four seventh-tier professionals who had been fighting fiercely moments ago had, with remarkable tacit understanding, all stopped their hands.

Then, glancing back at the rift behind him that showed no movement whatsoever, he couldn't help but think silently to himself: 'Is it over?'

Good that it's over — he finally didn't have to worry about becoming some poor wretch shaken to death by the aftershocks of powerful fighters' battle. From here on out, he only needed to shake off the swarm's pursuit.

Just then, a faint, almost imperceptible murmur suddenly rang in Li Ang's ear.

"Thank you—"

?

Li Ang instantly looked around with great vigilance.

Yet, under the dual blessing of 【Great Luo Insight】 and the Rinnegan, he could only find a single, almost imperceptible strand of white spider silk.

". Yize? When did he leave this behind?"

Li Ang narrowed his eyes slightly, for a moment uncertain whether the other party had noticed something.

But very soon, he nonchalantly plucked away that strand of spider silk.

However, the very next moment, a stream of information suddenly tried to burrow into his mind along the spider silk.

Facing this unfamiliar information, Li Ang cautiously made a probe, but immediately furrowed his brow.

The volume of information was vast, yet its name was very brief.

Its name was—

"A Detailed Treatise on the Refinement of the Hundred Aspects."
