Chapter 290: Chapter 280: Not Yet Satisfied, Just Do It
Everything else was fine, except for his insistence that Lin Yi join the Demon Hunting Team.
From Tang Baichuan to Chu Zhengxiong, and now he’d even come to Meng Yuan.
It seemed he had never given up.
Why was he so insistent?
’Why must Lin Yi join the team?’
’Is it really for training? To gain experience? Or is it...’
Chu Zhengxiong couldn’t understand Han Bin’s intentions.
After a long moment, he finally said with a smile, "Captain Meng, I’ll be taking my leave as well!"
"Alright, go on. When you see Elder Yi, say hello for me!"
"No problem!"
Chu Zhengxiong nodded with a smile and walked out of the conference room.
When he saw Mo Yanfeng and Qin Zhaoxue waiting outside,
the three of them exchanged a smile.
"Argued with Captain Han again?"
"Yeah," Chu Zhengxiong nodded. "He ignored you again?"
Mo Yanfeng laughed. "It’s not the first time. Don’t tell me it’s about Lin Yi again?"
"It’s because of him. Han Bin still hasn’t given up. He went to Captain Meng to demand the transfer!"
"I had no choice. I had to bring up the Yi Family!"
"Sigh... Why do I feel like ever since they came back from the Old District, Han Bin and Mo Ya have become completely different people? And they’re so insistent on Lin Yi joining the team. What on earth are they trying to do?"
Mo Yanfeng glanced at him with a smile.
"I told you a long time ago, their motives aren’t pure!"
"Wanting Lin Yi to join the team is just a pretense. They must have other motives!"
Chu Zhengxiong nodded.
"Yeah... so what are their motives, really?"
None of the three spoke.
They walked outside.
"Where are we going?" Mo Yanfeng and the others got into the car.
Chu Zhengxiong, sitting in the passenger seat, glanced out the window. "Back to Songshan City. We’re going to Xingwu University to borrow some people!"
"Captain Meng has already issued a mission. He wants us to defend the cities and clear out all the demonic and otherworldly beasts that have infiltrated them!"
Mo Yanfeng said nothing.
He slammed on the gas, and the car sped off.
And just as they had left,
Han Bin and Mo Ya emerged from a corner.
A hint of resentment showed in their eyes.
They watched Chu Zhengxiong’s car until it disappeared from sight.
Only then did the two get into separate cars and leave.
...
The faint light of dusk filtered through the window, falling on Lin Yi.
The Calm Spirit Incense was almost burned out.
This stick of incense could burn for four hours.
This meant that Lin Yi had already been in the Blood Prison Map with his consciousness for a full four hours.
But even now, he showed no reaction.
Even Xiaoqi, perched on his shoulder, was the same.
The thick stench of blood filled Lin Yi’s nostrils.
The white tiger beneath him was already stained as if dyed with blood.
A man, a tiger, and a spear stood tall amidst a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
At the white tiger’s feet lay the countless corpses of demonic beasts.
And now, that horde of demonic beasts had been completely slaughtered by them.
Xiaoqi circled in the sky, letting out a clear cry from time to time.
A gentle breeze blew, carrying the smell of blood.
But Lin Yi didn’t feel a trace of fatigue.
Instead, the killing intent in his eyes had not faded as he stared at the tide in the distance.
The ground was trembling violently.
It was as if an earth dragon was about to burst from the ground.
The distant tide was rapidly approaching.
’We just finished off this wave, how are there still so many demonic beasts?’
After a long moment, Lin Yi’s voice trembled slightly.
He had originally thought that killing all these demonic beasts would mean he had conquered the Blood Prison Map.
Who would have thought it wouldn’t be that simple at all.
The distant rumbling and the trembling ground made Lin Yi realize that even more demonic beasts were rushing toward them.
And from the looks of it, there were even more than before...
SCREECH—
Xiaoqi let out a cry in the air.
After circling a few times, it dove straight toward the beast tide once again.
ROAR—
Not to be outdone, the white tiger let out a roar.
Covered in blood, it too seemed to know no fatigue.
It stuck out its tongue, still craving more, and licked its chops.
Treading on the countless demonic beast corpses underfoot, it also pounced toward the horde.
Riding on the white tiger, a dark, murderous glint flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes.
Holding the Black Gold Tiger Head Spear, he whispered, "Let’s do this. Just get it done..."
One man, one bird, and one tiger.
Once again, they charged head-on toward the demonic beast horde.
With a soft *ding*,
the elevator doors on Dragon Tiger Mountain slowly opened.
Yi Nanshan walked out alone.
"Elder Yi!"
A Little Daoist quickly came forward and bowed.
Yi Nanshan nodded, his face devoid of a smile.
"Mm, where is the Elder Celestial Master?"
"The Grandmaster is resting in the courtyard!"
"Alright, I understand. You don’t need to follow me. I can go by myself."
Yi Nanshan nodded and stopped the Little Daoist who was about to lead the way.
Hearing this, the Little Daoist quickly stopped in his tracks.
Yi Nanshan was a regular visitor here.
Whenever he had free time, he would come up to Dragon Tiger Mountain to find the Elder Celestial Master.
So, he was very familiar with the place and didn’t need anyone to guide him.
Yi Nanshan passed through one grand hall after another.
Finally, he arrived at the courtyard where the Elder Celestial Master was resting.
Just as he stepped inside, he heard a voice coming from a computer.
[Bomb...]
"I say, Elder Mu Ru, you’re an Elder Celestial Master for crying out loud. Can’t you be a little more mindful of your image?"
"How old are you? Still hiding in here playing Fight the Landlord? Have you no care for your status? Or your eyes?"
Yi Nanshan, having walked in, couldn’t help but nag him a bit.
The Elder Celestial Master glanced back at him.
"Don’t bother me. Let me finish this hand. The other guy is about to run out of cards!"
[A pair of Jacks...]
[A pair of Aces...]
[Bomb...]
[Pass!]
[Can’t beat that...]
Then, a cheerful tune started playing.
A rare smile appeared on the Elder Celestial Master’s face.
After exiting the game, he turned back to look at Yi Nanshan.
He personally picked up the teapot, refilled his cup, and chuckled. "So, what brings you to my Dragon Tiger Mountain today? Did you miss your grandson, or did you miss me?"
At these words, Yi Nanshan picked up his teacup and shot him a sidelong glance.
He took a sip of tea to wet his throat before saying, "Two things. First, I came to see how Lin Yi is doing here. Second... the Restricted Area Battlefield might be losing its balance!"
