Chapter 116: Fiancée (1 Update)

Is the demon done for?Fang Yu had a thought.

This isn’t good at all.

He hadn’t even snatched a few kills on his side yet, so why was there suddenly an order to retreat?

Come on, Little Demon, we’re hardly even started.

Fang Yu still wanted to entangle with the demons on the Giant Treasure Ship for three hundred rounds, and it would have been best to gulp down all ten demon heads.

But now, with the demons planning to retreat, there’s pressure coming from the humans’ side.

Ten demons were now dead or escaped, and Fang Yu, being too far, could only watch helplessly.

What should he do?

For a moment, Fang Yu found himself in a dilemma.

If he continued to follow the Lin Family and attack the demons, he might still manage to snatch one or two kills.

But he would definitely miss the retreat assembly time set by Yue Guang.

But if he retreated now to regroup with the demons, he could only watch the Lin Family claim the kills.

"Yikes!! I got one! I snatched the kill!! Hahahaha!! 600 Experience Points! 600 Experience Points!!"

Suddenly, someone from the large group attacking with the Lin Family let out an excited roar.

It directly provoked other players.

"Dammit! You sneaky bastard! It’s obvious we brought that BOSS’s health down!"

"Kill him! Damn it, I’ve been fighting so hard just to scrape together 30 Experience Points, why should you get the bulk of it?"

"Kill, kill, kill!! I’m not playing anymore!! This is infuriating!! My big kill was stolen!! Everybody die!!"

As the words fell, that female player suddenly swelled with blood and burst like a bloody bomb.

People around her instantly suffered deaths and injuries.

"Holy shit! If you’re gonna rage quit, don’t do it by blowing yourself up!"

"Such power, she must be a Lucky Gift Package player! Otherwise where did she get such a self-destruction skill!"

"Damn it! To have a Lucky Gift Package skill and still play like this, what a waste!!"

Some players returned to their senses and started cursing.

But soon swords and blades were swinging towards those who were spewing such foul language.

The latest Lin Family expert to lead the charge, sitting on a horseback, surveyed the crowd and issued a commanding shout.

"There are Little Demons mixed among us! All those who utter strange words, beheaded!"

Fang Yu glanced at the person, and, lo and behold, another 500HP big shot.

Time to make a run for it, this really isn’t a place to stay for long.

Besides, keeping his mole identity safe is far more important than a kill or two from the demons.

As long as he can continue to blend in with the demon troops, he’s not worried about finding opportunities to sneak in a stabbing.

You treat me as a brother, I treat you as an Experience Points gift package, it’s obvious who will die first, right?

Realizing this, Fang Yu quickly blended into the crowd and hastily left.

The dense cluster of health bars diminished his ability to detect.

So Fang Yu did not notice, hidden among the crowd, there was a familiar face.

"Diao Deyi..."

Shi Zhongmei stared intently at the receding figure of Fang Yu.

There’s no mistake...

I definitely did not see wrong!

Just now, that punch that blew up with Bone Powder, and the covering Bone Armor, are clearly things that only someone with a high realm of the Solid Foundation Technique could achieve!

Shi Zhongmei was shocked.

Or, rather, she couldn’t believe it.

"Diao Deyi... has a big secret on him!"

Initially, when Shi Zhongmei saw Fang Yu recklessly charging towards the demons,

She wanted to stop Fang Yu from getting himself killed, to prevent herself from losing her meatball meal supplement.

But after Fang Yu got slapped in the face by a demon,

Shi Zhongmei’s heart went cold.

The surrounding Disciples were also scattered by the crowd, no longer in sight.

"What should I do?" ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ novel•fire.net

Right then, Shi Zhongmei had a thought.

In the martial arts gym, there is an unwritten rule among the Disciples.

All Disciples who have achieved something, if they die outside,

If conditions allow, other Disciples can bring the body back to the gym for the master to inspect.

The master will award a reward based on the situation.

Shi Zhongmei heard from senior brothers that the master had once granted rewards like top martial arts and a large batch of Medicine Pills.

Originally, she was worried about Diao Deyi’s safety.

Now, she wanted to drag Diao Deyi’s body back to the gym for a reward.

"It’s not my fault, our relationship as Disciples is just a matter of mutual interest."

"You messed up the deal, shouldn’t I recoup some losses?"

"Besides, it’s better for your family to drag you back for a proper burial than to have your corpse exposed outside, trampled by passersby."

After a few attempts at self-persuasion, Shi Zhongmei continued walking in that direction.

But just a few steps away, she saw Diao Deyi’s Bone Fist explode a demon, shocking her grandmother’s hundred years.

"Is that Diao Deyi?!!"

"He’s not dead???"

Shi Zhongmei was shocked and bewildered, completely unable to comprehend the situation.

Her first thought was that Diao Deyi had turned into a demon.

But it didn’t make sense for demons to slaughter each other.

Moreover, that Bone Armor-covered fist was unmistakably the Solid Foundation Technique.

Its execution might even be close to her master’s level.

"So... is Diao Deyi actually a master-level expert?"

"But that makes no sense. I’ve watched Diao Deyi progress bit by bit. He was just a beginner!"

So... there was only one answer left.

"Diao Deyi is harboring a great secret!"

"At the very least, he possesses a significant treasure!"

Shi Zhongmei immediately had an idea.

’Junior Brother, you wouldn’t want the secret of your hidden strength to get out, would you?’

Shi Zhongmei had already prepared her excuse.

Harboring extraordinary power, yet keeping it hidden.

It’s either innate talent or possession of a significant treasure.

Given the rate of his power increase, the likelihood of it being a treasure was higher.

Shi Zhongmei wasn’t greedy.

She would either borrow the treasure for a few days to enhance her own strength,

or she would ask for more benefits as a hush fee.

Quietly following Diao Deyi, Shi Zhongmei began to look forward to a better life.

"Could this be a major turning point in my life?"

She thought to herself.

The demons near the Giant Treasure Ship were gradually being subdued.

Without hesitation, Lin Jie led his team and charged towards the nearby boats.

Lin Jie appeared very anxious, and the people around him couldn’t help but gossip.

"Brother Jie seems really furious this time."

"Of course, his fiancée went alone into a place attacked by demons, how could he not be worried!"

"Brother Jie has a fiancée? Who is it?"

"It’s Sister Bie Sheng, though this news shouldn’t be spread yet. It will only be announced in a few days."

Everyone suddenly understood.

But Lin Jie wasn’t in the mood to scold them.

He just felt irritable.

An inexplicable irritability!

"Bie Sheng... Lin Bie Sheng! You better not die on me!"

Bang!!

He kicked open a burning door and rushed into the cabin, doing this repeatedly.

When Lin Jie emerged, his face was as somber as still water.

No one.

Lin Bie Sheng wasn’t here!

Lin Jie looked towards Lin Bie Sheng’s three deputies.

The three, Lin Caijia, hurriedly shook their heads.

"We don’t know, Sister Bie Sheng just charged in here."

"Yeah, maybe after she finished, she went elsewhere to slay demons."

Elsewhere?

If there was any other significant place at this wharf, it would only be the central warehouse that stored documents.

But now, that warehouse was blown beyond recognition, leaving only a bit of flat ground and debris, no trace of a person.

Lin Jie calmed down.

Pensive, he suddenly turned his gaze from the wharf to the distant streets.

"The resistance of demons is decreasing."

"They’re retreating!"

"If Bie Sheng is alive, she must have pursued those fleeing demons!"

"Search! Everyone spread out, taking the wharf as the center, expand outwards, check every street corner, thoroughly search each street! We must find Bie Sheng!"

Lin Jie clenched his fists.

"Alive, we must see the person; dead, we must... see the body!"
