You never know which comes first, surprise or shock.
[The Lian Lian Kan isn't dead]
These five words were definitely not good news for Ye Bai.
When he told Shadow Nine about it, Shadow Nine's reaction was quite interesting.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Shadow Nine himself was an expert in the soul system, and he was certain that the soul of the Cult Leader of the Demonic Sect had been completely purified, leaving nothing behind.
Ye Bai carefully chose his words and said slowly,
"Isn't it possible that he had already split a part of his soul beforehand, and when his main body was destroyed, he used a prepared array to sacrifice three of his Battle King-level subordinates to repair his soul's defects and extend his life?"
Shadow Nine: .......
"Your guess is a bit too detailed."
Shadow Nine almost asked directly if Ye Bai had been an onlooker at the scene.
After a moment of silence, Shadow Nine had to admit,
"There is indeed such a possibility, and if the Demon God is willing to help him, the probability of success is quite high."
When it came to matters of the soul, Shadow Nine was an expert, a War God-level expert.
He hadn't thought of this before.
Mainly because the opponent's soul fluctuations were very normal, with no signs of any defects.
At the same time, the method Ye Bai mentioned also had theoretical feasibility.
However, there was a huge drawback:
The Lian Lian Kan with a repaired soul, in a sense, was no longer the Lian Lian Kan of the past!
It's like a ship where all the parts have been replaced, completely unrecognizable.
"Even so, he with a repaired soul is an extremely dangerous enemy!"
The living room was filled with a murderous aura, almost tangible.
Shadow Nine's next words nearly made Ye Bai choke on his water.
"I'll go take Xue Meng's head right now!"
Ye Bai: ???
"Wait. Not being able to kill the Lian Lian Kan, what's it got to do with Xue Meng?"
Ye Bai was puzzled, what kind of logic was this?
Xue Meng got caught in the crossfire for no reason?
Shadow Nine argued confidently,
"I am a dignified War God, and I keep my promises. Since I used Xue Meng's life as collateral, I must follow through!"
If you spot this story on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.
"Oh."
Ye Bai's reaction was very calm,
"Remember to take out the trash when you leave."
"Come back soon."
Shadow Nine: ......
"Aren't you going to try to stop me?"
"Doesn't seem appropriate."
Ye Bai had no intention of stopping him.
The old man was quite cunning.
If you can beat Xue Meng to death today, I won't be called Bai!
Who knew, Shadow Nine's thick skin exceeded Ye Bai's imagination.
Shadow Nine followed Ye Bai's words and said,
"Since you say it's inappropriate, I'll give you face, otherwise, Xue Meng wouldn't see tomorrow's sun!"
Ye Bai: ...... In the art of shamelessness, Shadow Nine reigns supreme, Ye Bai concedes.
The SSS Rank Talent should be yours!
"We will continue to track the Lian Lian Kan's whereabouts, so you don't need to worry too much.
Splitting and then repairing the soul will cause a significant drop in strength, at most he will have Battle King-level strength.
You have a peak Battle King bodyguard living next door, although he's not very bright..."
Ye Bai: ?!
It seemed like he heard some incredible secret.
Ye Bai thought to himself,
"Is Liu Qingyan not very bright? Could it be due to some hidden ailment?"
Shadow Nine's tone became serious,
"Now that the Lian Lian Kan has been reborn, if he cuts ties with the past and lives incognito, it's not impossible."
"No matter what, even if he has any plans, he won't come after a little kid like you, rest assured."
Ye Bai rolled his eyes,
"Please stop jinxing me, setting up flags."
The more you say that, the more likely he'll come for me!
After finishing the conversation with Shadow Nine, Ye Bai packed up and headed to school.
On the way, he ran into Zhao Lin, who was full of excitement.
"Big Bai! I successfully changed jobs last night, I'm now a Swift Wind Warrior!"
"Great, that's wonderful."
Zhao Lin was unusually excited, and being a chatterbox, he talked non-stop.
"I was a bit worried that the third level would be too difficult to get through.
I heard that because of Asura, levels 3 to 6 will reset, similar to... a purification feeling? The difficulty will decrease, and the basic rewards will increase!"
It was from Zhao Lin that Ye Bai understood the significance of the reset.
In the previous three Eras of Supremacy, similar things had happened.
In some extremely difficult special stages, when a Supreme Being achieved 100% exploration and an SSS Rank rating, there would be earth-shattering changes!
The difficulty would decrease, the basic rewards would increase, and the threshold would be lower!
Of course, these also came at a cost, with a slight reduction in the reward ceiling.
But compared to the overall benefits for humanity, this was nothing!
"With a War God-level prophecy expert's intervention, it's estimated that after this stage reset, the success rate of the new generation will be higher, and the number of first-tier Warriors will skyrocket!"
Zhao Lin's words were filled with endless excitement.
"Big Bai, do you know what this means? We have a great chance of becoming Warriors!"
"Indeed, thanks to Asura."
Ye Bai's reaction wasn't as exaggerated as Zhao Lin's, it was even a bit calm.
Warrior? He was already a ninth-tier Warrior, and moving forward, he was about to break through to Battle General.
Zhao Lin's reaction was even more outrageous,
"If Asura appeared in front of me now, I could bow to him twice!"
Ye Bai: Really? You say a Dragon Kingdom person doesn't deceive another Dragon Kingdom person.
"Don't bow to Asura, bow to your dad first."
"Get lost!"
"....."
...
South River City, suburban factory.
Last night, a War God-level battle took place quietly and ended quietly.
With special arrays and methods, the battle didn't affect reality, keeping the losses to a minimum.
Xue Meng's figure reappeared on the battlefield, his brows furrowed.
"Is this guy a cockroach? He still isn't dead!"
On the scene, many people were fiddling with instruments, setting up arrays, trying to find traces of the opponent's true body from clues.
But....
Xue Meng glanced back and shook his head,
"Difficult."
"This guy, like a stone sinking into the sea, although his strength has declined, he's become more dangerous!"
...
South River City, 80 kilometers from the abandoned factory.
In a mid-range apartment in the city center.
"Safe houses, you should set up a few more of these."
A black-haired young man sat on the sofa, swirling a glass of red wine in his hand, looking out at the world through the floor-to-ceiling window.
His gaze was cold, out of place with the entire celebratory world, and a cold smile hung on his face.
"Three Battle Kings, using the Demon God's gift twice, finally brought about this rebirth..."
"That fool Xue Meng probably thinks I'm really dead, as for that old fellow [Shadow]... even if I can deceive him for a while, he'll eventually figure it out!"
"The best plan is to head to the Abyssal Plane as soon as possible."
The black-haired youth warned himself that he was only temporarily safe and would eventually be tracked down!
Suddenly, a vague and ethereal voice sounded in the black-haired youth's ear.
[Don't forget... our... deal...]
The black-haired youth's face darkened, and he said unhappily, "I'll do what I promised you."
"I'll find that Lone Wolf who killed my son and avenge him."
After saying this, a trace of confusion flashed in the depths of the black-haired youth's eyes.
Why did the Fourth Demon God specifically want to kill a Battle King-level Lone Wolf?
Is this the degradation of morality or the distortion of demonic nature?
In any case, to achieve this rebirth, he made a deal with the Fourth Demon God, and he must kill the opponent before escaping to the Abyssal Plane.
As a return,
Once he reaches the Abyssal Plane, the Fourth Demon God will help him return to the War God realm!
"Alright, these old matters should disappear with the death of the Cult Leader of the Fourth Demonic Sect."
Saying this,
The black-haired youth stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and the sunlight fell on his face, leaving shadows.
"Now, I am a young teacher at South River Second High, young and promising, with a bright future, a backup identity I've long prepared for myself."
"Let me see the recent work plan."
"Assigned to South River City's summer camp as an assistant instructor... great, being with these young kids, no one can threaten me, and there's still a chance to escape to the Abyssal Plane!"
The black-haired youth downed the red wine in one gulp, his mouth curling into an exaggerated grin,
"The goddess of luck is finally on my side!"
