The howling north wind.
The desolate frozen earth.
The group of five rode in an old off-road vehicle on a snowy road.
The driver was Bordeaux Jieyi.
The passenger seat was the old woman.
Jill sat on the left side of the back seat, and Bahuang Yi sat on the right.
Chen Yu was stuck in the middle, unable to move.
Clang clang.
Clang clang clang clang clang…
Amidst the turbulence, Chen Yu was expressionless. “There’s no need to be so nervous. Are you trying to squeeze me?”
Hearing this, Jill continued to lean towards Chen Yu. “I have to squeeze you. You’re too dangerous. If I’m not careful, you can run away.”
“With so many big shots surrounding me, can I run away?”
Jill curled his lips. “I won’t believe a word you say right now.”
Chen Yu: “…”
“I’m very curious.”
At this moment, Bahuang Yi, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and said, “Jill injected you with a deactivator at that time, right?”
Chen Yu’s eyelids twitched slightly. “Why?”
“The deactivator is an effective inhibitor that suppresses the transmission of Qi through the meridians and collaterals. Regardless of the level, as long as a certain amount is injected through the blood, it is no longer effective in regulating the dantian. Unless, a few hours later, the toxins are metabolized.”
Bahuang Yi turned his head and looked at Chen Yu. “Then, how do you use Qi?”
Chen Yu looked at his nose and heart. “I don’t know, but it can be used. Maybe Jill didn’t inject enough.”
“Impossible!” Jill immediately refuted. He took out a few other deactivators from his pocket. “They are all five milliliters. The one I injected you with is the same.”
“Five milliliters.” Bahuang Yi asked, “What’s the purity?”
“63.5%.”
“With this purity, five milliliters can suppress three people at the same time.”
“Right.” Jill nodded and pointed at Chen Yu. “That’s why I let him escape. It’s not my fault at all. Under normal circumstances, no matter who is injected with the deactivator, it’s impossible to use force. In fact, I’m already cautious enough.”
Chen Yu: “Maybe that deactivator is fake.”
“Impossible! It’s produced by a regular pharmaceutical company!”
Chen Yu: “Maybe what you injected me with isn’t a deactivator.”
“That’s even more impossible! I’m not that careless!”
Chen Yu spread his hands. “To be able to treat sh*t like chocolate, it’s very normal to mix up the deactivator.”
“…Chen Yu, you’re the person I hate the most in my life.”
“That’s ridiculous.” Chen Yu pointed at Bahuang Yi. “You don’t hate the person who fed you sh*t, but you hate me.”
Jill: “…”
“Facts speak louder than words.” Bordeaux Jieyi in the front row of the car tilted her head. “Chen Yu was able to use force at that time, which proves that what you injected was indeed not a deactivator. Or maybe Chen Yu used some kind of small trick to prevent you from successfully injecting it.”
“What trick did you use?” Jill looked at Chen Yu with a serious expression.
Chen Yu: “…What does sh*t taste like?”
Kacha.
Jill waved his hand and took out a revolver, pressing it against Chen Yu’s forehead. “Do you know what brain matter tastes like?”
Chen Yu: “It’s definitely better than sh*t.”
“…”
Jill slowly put down the revolver and covered his forehead in pain. “Don’t talk about sh*t, okay?”
“Then admit it. Did you inject the deactivator?”
“I admit it. F*ck, I took the wrong syringe.”
“You must be more careful next time.” Chen Yu patted Jill’s shoulder in relief.
“…”
Jill remained silent.
The others also did not speak.
In the SUV, there was a short period of silence.
After a while, Chen Yu moved his buttocks and scratched his ears. He asked, “We, where are we going?”
“Shanghai,” Jieyi said.
“Just the few of us?” Chen Yu looked back at the back of the car. “I remember your team. There are dozens of people, right?”
“The rest of them will stay in the northeast to carry out the stability maintenance mission. We’re the only ones left. We’ll take you back to Shanghai on the way.”
“I see…”
Chen Yu buried his head in deep thought.
In the current situation, even though it was said to be an escort, the essence was that he had been ‘hijacked’.
If they didn’t bring him back to Beijing University, the few people in the car wouldn’t relax.
‘There’s no signal in the wilderness, so I can’t contact Ma Li and the others.’
‘So under such circumstances, how can I revive Bahuang Yao…’
‘En…’
As he pondered, Chen Yu scratched his head in annoyance.
‘Looks like I can only wait until we reach Shanghai before I take action…’
Screech —
Suddenly, accompanied by the sound of rapid braking, Chen Yu, who was in deep thought, leaned forward and slammed his head into the front seat.
Dong!
[Injured: Qi and Blood +178]
“F*ck!”
Covering his head, Chen Yu bent down in pain. “Are you crazy?”
“Your head sounds pretty good!” Jieyi turned around and spoke in surprise.
Chen Yu: “…”
“What happened?” Jill leaned over and laid on Chen Yu’s body as he looked ahead.
“As you can see.” Jieyi restarted the car and slowly stopped by the side of the road. “An exotic beast has emerged from the void.”
Hearing that, Chen Yu hurriedly raised his head.
Through the windshield, he could see that a spatial crack was suspended in the middle of the road about fifty meters ahead.
The body of an exotic beast had already drilled out half of its body. It was baring its teeth at the people in the off-road vehicle, spewing out a malevolent aura.
“Another ‘newborn’ exotic beast?” Chen Yu was shocked.
“This ‘again’, well said.” Jieyi put on the handbrake, pushed open the door, and walked out. “How many times did you see?”
“We met three times on the way from Qingcheng to Bingcheng City.”
“Only three times.” Jill jumped out of the car and stretched. “We met it more than ten times.”
“Let’s cut the crap.” The old woman sitting in the front passenger seat had a calm expression. “Hurry up and get rid of it.”
“We’ve been driving for so long. Let’s relax.” Jill patted Bordeaux Jieyi’s shoulder and pointed at the crack in front. “It’s just a small Level 3 beast. You can handle it yourself, right?”
“No problem.”
Waving her hand, Bordeaux Jieyi shook her slender waist and walked forward.
Jill took out a cigar and lit it up. Taking a deep breath, he said, “…F*ck, why is there still the smell of sh*t in my mouth…”
In the car.
Bahuang Yi stroked his chin thoughtfully. “Why are there more and more similar cracks of the void?”
“Who knows?” The old woman’s tone was faint. “Maybe it won’t be long before the exotic beasts occupy every inch of land.”
When Chen Yu, who was sitting in the back row, heard this, his eyes flickered.
After having a conversation with Duan Ye, he understood a lot of inside information about this world.
There was a deep reason behind the sudden increase in the number of ‘exotic beasts’…
“Ao ao –”
Soon, a mournful beast roar was heard.
That exotic beast had already turned into a corpse, lying on the side of the road.
“Deal with it.”
Jieyi made an ‘OK’ gesture and walked back to the SUV. She got into the driver’s seat and said, “Get in the car and get out before there’s a second one.”
Hum —
The car started up again.
Jill flicked his cigar and got into the car. “After passing by Bingcheng City, we can consider taking a plane back. Otherwise, with so many ‘newborn’ exotic beasts, how long will it take to return to Shanghai?”
“Bingcheng City won’t do.” The old woman shook her head. “In the northeast, the Fair Association still has a lot of hidden forces. It’s easy to be attacked by using flying tools. There’s no need to go through all that trouble.”
“Then what about passing through the northeast?”
“We can leave the northeast.”
…
In a car.
A Level 8 mighty figure.
A Level 6 big shot.
Two Level 4 elite fighters.
Wherever they passed, no exotic beasts could stop them.
Therefore, the off-road vehicle traveled very fast.
It didn’t stop at night either.
Although it would attract a lot of exotic beasts to besiege it by turning on the lights at night like this. However, a casual instant-cast spatial martial art of the Bahuang Yi could leave a pile of corpses…
Therefore, in just one day and one night.
Everyone left the northeast and arrived at the boundary of the Central Plains.
“Ah…”
Jieyi yawned and stopped the car. She turned to the old woman and said, “Captain, we’re at the intersection. Which city should we take the flight to?”
“Whatever.” The old woman closed her eyes and rested. She didn’t even open her eyelids.
“Then I’ll go to Tang City. It’s the closest.”
“No,” Bahuang Yi suddenly said from the back row.
“Ah?” Jieyi turned back and was stunned. “What?”
“I’m not going to Tang City,” Bahuang Yi repeated.
“Then where are we going?”
“Qingcheng.”
Chen Yu, who was stuck in the middle of the back row, suddenly opened his eyes and turned to look at Bahuang Yi. “Qingcheng.”
“Yes. Qingcheng.” Bahuang Yi nodded. “I’m going to visit my sister on the way.”
Chen Yu: “…”
Instantly, cold sweat broke out on his back.
Visit his sister?
Looking at a girl!
He could only see a corpse…
“What?” Bahuang Yi looked Chen Yu up and down. “Is there a problem?”
“No… No problem. Why did you suddenly think of looking at her? You know, for her safety, I hid Bahuang Yao.”
“There’s no need to hide.” Bahuang Yi tidied his collar. “I’m planning to bring her back to Shanghai to enroll with you.”
“She…”
“Are you hiding something from me?” Bahuang Yi sensed that something was wrong and narrowed his eyes at Chen Yu.
“No.” Chen Yu sat upright. “It’s okay to bring Bahuang Yao. She’s quite lonely.”
“She’s in Qingcheng.”
“Ah… No, she’s not in Qingcheng.”
“Where is she?” Bahuang Yi’s eyes gradually turned sharp.
“She’s… In Singapore…”
Bang!
Bahuang Yi activated his Qi, and a fierce squall instantly erupted.
“That’s impossible.” Chen Yu quickly changed his words. “She’s… Ah, yes, she’s in Tang City.”
“…Why is she in Tang City?” Bahuang Yi was expressionless.
“At that time, when the capital was destroyed, Ma Li, and Bahuang Yao arrived in Tang City first.” Chen Yu opened his eyes and babbled nonsense. “Because at that time, I thought that you were dead, and I thought that your Bahuang clan would come looking for Bahuang Yao. I was afraid that I didn’t have the ability to protect her, so I secretly left her in Tang City.”
“Is that so?”
“That’s right.” Chen Yu’s face was not red and his heart was not beating fast. “If you don’t believe me, you can go to Zhongtong Express Delivery Company to gather my route of action. If I tell a lie, my Brother Duan Ye will be infertile for the rest of his life.”
Jill :”…It’s too f*cking miserable to be your brother.”
Bahuang Yi raised his head and looked deeply at Chen Yu. “Alright. Jieyi, go to Tang City.”
Upon hearing this, Jieyi carefully looked at the old woman. “Captain, we’re going to Tang City?”
“…” The old woman did not answer.
But this was equivalent to acquiescence.
Jieyi also understood this point. She immediately started the car and stepped on the accelerator.
“Chen Yu.” Closing his eyes, Bahuang Yi’s tone was calm. “I hope that Bahuang Yao is in Tang City. Otherwise…”
Chen Yu immediately added, “Otherwise, Duan Ye will be infertile.”
“…Alright.”
Jill could not help but ask, “Why don’t you curse yourself for being infertile?”
Chen Yu said, “What if it really happens?”
Jill: “…”
After a moment of silence, Jill looked at Bahuang Yi. “Are you even listening? He didn’t curse himself!”
Bahuang Yi: “I know.”
“Since you know, why don’t you let him curse himself?”
Bahuang Yi: “What if it comes true?”
Jill: “…???”
“Can you all shut up?” The old woman opened her eyes and looked annoyed. “Stop babbling. F*ck, I’m so annoyed.”
The SUV fell into silence once again.
Only the humming of the engine was left.
Sitting in the middle, Chen Yu lowered his head and cursed the word ‘f*ck’ in his heart.
His anger towards Duan Ye had reached its peak.
If that ‘idiot’ had not been sent back to the ‘den of thieves’ by him, he would have returned to Qingcheng with Ma Li and the others and resurrected Bahuang Yao happily instead of being stuck in the car and being stared at by four people, where he could not do anything…
Furthermore, it was obvious.
If Bahuang Yi found out that Bahuang Yao was dead, he would at least lose a layer of skin.
“…Stop.”
Suddenly, Chen Yu spoke.
Screech —
Jieyi stepped on the brakes and turned around. “What are you doing?”
“I need to go to the toilet.”
“Okay.” Jieyi swung her hand and threw a bottle of mineral water over. “Take it yourself.”
Chen Yu: “…The opening of the bottle is too small.”
“Oh, right!” Jieyi suddenly understood. She slapped her forehead and observed her surroundings for a moment. Then, she took out the bottle of pulse drink and shook it. “Is this okay?”
“It’s still too small. It needs to be at least three times bigger.”
Beside him, the old woman could not help but frown. “Were you a donkey in your past life?”
“Don’t look for the bottle.” Chen Yu pretended not to hear her. “Other than a small size, I also want a large size.”
Jieyi looked at the old woman.
The old woman waved her hand. “Hurry up and go.”
“Alright.”
Chen Yu hurriedly pushed open the car door and jumped away from Bahuang Yi’s body.
However, just as he got out of the car, he realized that Jill and Bahuang Yi had also followed him out. They stuck closely behind him.
Chen Yu: “…I need to go to the toilet.”
“I know.” Jill took off his cowboy hat and dusted it off.
Chen Yu: “Are you addicted to eating?”
Dong!
Jill kicked Chen Yu and he staggered. “Do you believe that I won’t let you have a taste as well? Hurry up and go to the toilet. Don’t even think about leaving us more than a meter away.”
Chen Yu: “…”
He silently walked into a bush, squatted down, and pretended to go to the toilet. But his thoughts were running fast.
‘No.’
‘I’m being watched so closely. I don’t even have the space to do anything, let alone escape.’
‘I can only drag it to Tang City and then think of a way to resurrect Xiao Yao…’
With this thought in mind, Chen Yu put on his pants and walked out of the bush. “It’s done.”
“Did you wipe?” Jill was suspicious. “Why didn’t I see you wipe?”
Chen Yu: “…Thank you for the reminder.”
As he said that, he squatted back down in the grass.
…
Thousands of miles away.
Shanghai.
Bang!
The office of the Principal of Beijing University was suddenly pushed open.
The female assistant rushed in with a pale face.
The Principal, who was sitting behind his desk, felt a chill run down his spine and his heart slowly sank.
For this assistant, who had served the leader for two generations, to be so flustered, there was definitely nothing good about it…
As expected, it was just as he had expected.
The female assistant’s words caused the principal of Beijing University to freeze on the spot.
“Principal! There’s… There’s actually a Beast Tide coming from the sea!”
