Chapter 211 - Danger Has Descended Once Again

Lin Bai slowly walked over. For some reason, when he looked at the person in front of him, the monster actually felt a sense of fear from the bottom of his heart.

“Who is the master that you speak of? How will he descend? Tell me clearly, and I can consider sparing you.”

“Just give up on this thought. I will not betray my master.”

Although the monster’s facial features could not be seen clearly and it was only a mass of black fog, anyone could hear the decisiveness in its tone.

Seeing that he could not get anything out of Lin Bai, Lin Bai said indifferently, “Then you can go to hell.”

The moment his voice fell, a pure white sword passed through the center of the mass of black fog and it instantly disappeared in the air as if nothing existed. However, everyone knew that the catastrophe had just begun.

“Then what should we do now?”

“Now that the pill has been refined, we should quickly think of a way to meet up with the Vice City Lord and the others.”

However, when they thought of the monster that had transformed into Ren Zeyuan just now, everyone’s hearts sank to the bottom. Was Ren Zeyuan and the others already attacked by the monster, or were they currently waiting for their support. No one knew what the situation was like.

They did not know that the situation was far worse than they had imagined. Ren Zeyuan had completely fallen. Even He Qingyuan and the other elders were seriously injured because of his betrayal.

“But if we encounter such a monster again, we won’t be able to tell if it’s real or fake. Their disguises are too good. Isn’t it very dangerous?”

“Even if it’s very dangerous, we still have to go. Maybe the Vice City Lord and the others are waiting for our support. If we delay any longer, they’ll be in even more danger.”

Everyone knew the degree of danger this time. It was likely that they would not be able to return. Yan Hua coughed a few times. Although his expression was ugly, it was much better than before.

“If any of you are willing to go, you will be a noble of the City Lord’s Estate.”

“I’ll go,” Lin Bai said lightly. With his words, a few of the more powerful ones behind him also said, “I’m willing to do my part for the City Lord.”

“Me too!”

Yan Hua nodded. He did not ask all of them to follow Lin Bai. He only chose a few of the stronger ones.

“I hope things are not at the worst. You must find the Vice City Lord and the others first. Then, work together with them. Only then will there be no mistakes.”

Yan Hua warned them a few more times, afraid that Lin Bai and the others were too young and impetuous, and didn’t have a good view of the big picture.

“Don’t worry, Elder Yan. We know all of this.”

After bidding farewell to everyone, under the worried gazes of Yan Hua and the others, Lin Bai and the others walked into the depths of the cave.

Someone asked in puzzlement, “Why didn’t elder Yan allow us to follow them? This way, the more people there are, the greater the strength. Now that we’re separated, won’t it be easier for us to be defeated one by one?”

“I know what I’m doing.” Yan Hua coughed a few times, his eyes revealing a sorrowful expression. He did not tell the others the truth. There was still a huge hidden spell formation here, which could be considered the last way out.

It was not considered a way out. It was just to buy some time for everyone. If the final operation failed, Yan Hua would activate this spell formation and sacrifice everyone here.

There was nothing they could do for the overall situation. Otherwise, once the foul energy leaked out, not only would the City Lord’s Estate suffer, even the people in the city would not be able to escape.

Everyone’s expression was a little perturbed. They prayed in their hearts that everything would go smoothly for Lin Bai and the others, but they did not know what kind of situation they would face in the future.

Meanwhile, Lin Bai and the others were also heading deeper into the cave. They did not know if it was because he qingyuan and the others had passed by earlier, or because Ren Zeyuan was certain that they would not fail, so there was nothing to stop them.

“I keep feeling that it’s too quiet. Why didn’t those monsters see us?”

“Isn’t quiet good. At least it proves that we didn’t attract the attention of these damn things.”

“I wonder how the Vice City Lord and the others are doing.”

The few of them were talking in low voices. Lin Bai did not speak. He walked at the front, giving people an inexplicable sense of security.

At this moment, on the other side, He Qingyuan and the others were surrounded by black qi. It had already traveled all over their meridians, and their spiritual energy had been completely exhausted. It was obvious that they were at the end of their lives.

Even so, a faint circle of spiritual qi surrounded them, and they were still putting up a last-ditch resistance.

“Next, I’ll let you all play your last little role and become nutrients. They can’t even protect themselves, so they won’t be able to save you.”

Ren Zeyuan had been pretending the whole time. He had launched a sneak attack at the last moment, and then used the same method. Yan Hua and the others probably couldn’t dodge it either, so they couldn’t help but close their eyes in despair.

At this moment, Ren Zeyuan seemed to have sensed something and suddenly frowned. “It actually failed. What’s going on?”

He closed his eyes, wanting to feel the memory of the black qi, but unfortunately, it had been completely wiped out by Lin Bai’s sword qi. There were no memory fragments at all.

Ren Zeyuan opened his eyes and sensed that someone was approaching. The corners of his mouth curled into a cold smile. “Then I’ll play with you guys well. When the time comes, I’ll send you guys on your way together.”

After saying that, he glanced at He Qingyuan and the others from the corner of his eye. A thick black gas came out of his hand and wrapped around them, as if a giant beast had swallowed them.

He Qingyuan and the others were vigilant, but they couldn’t resist asking “What do you want to do to us? !”

Their eyes were shining with a scarlet light. The white spiritual energy gradually retreated as if there were two forces fighting. Unfortunately, their own forces were still being defeated and eventually replaced by the black gas. Then, it gradually returned to normal.

“You know what to do later, right?”

When He Qingyuan and the others looked at him again, there was no longer any hatred in their eyes. Instead, it was replaced by respect and worship. They were like marionettes controlled by someone.

They said respectfully, “Yes, Vice City Lord..”
