He knew that the situation was critical and that every second of delay could be life-threatening.

Xu Lin's soldiers followed closely behind, not daring to slacken their efforts in the slightest.

Li Yu also found Xiao Hei sleeping under the Great Wall, and led Fu Xiyao and the people of the Seventh Regiment to quickly follow Xu Lin and escape together.

Just as they were about to escape the Central Plains defense line, Li Yu suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and his body involuntarily stopped, as if he were being watched by something terrifying.

"Why did you stop? Get on your horse and gallop! What are you dawdling for?" Xu Lin turned around anxiously.

"Something's not right." Li Yu remained motionless.

"What exactly happened?" Xu Lin stopped and asked, puzzled.

Li Yu slowly raised her head and said softly:

"The movie star you mentioned... seems to be looking at me."

Upon hearing this, Xu Lin, who was standing to the side, instantly changed his expression, and a chill ran down his spine and spread throughout his body.

Xu Lin struggled to lift his head and followed Li Yu's gaze.

Floating in the air, Jinbo stared intently at Li Yu.

That indifferent, cold gaze was as if he were looking at a dead person.

"Why is he looking at you?" Xu Lin asked tremblingly.

"Why are you looking at me? Isn't it obvious?" Li Yu seemed to already know the answer.

"It's obvious?" Xu Lin's eyes widened.

"There were so many people here, but he didn't look at anyone else, only at me. That means I have something he wants." Li Yu's hand slowly and imperceptibly reached into her pocket.

“That makes sense…” Xu Lin said hesitantly.

"What is it that no one else has, but I do?" Li Yu asked in return.

"It's potential!" Xu Lin suddenly realized, and looked up at the shadow master again:

"Could he be a talent scout too!?"

Li Yu shook his head: "No, it's a beast core!"

At this point, Li Yu seized the opportunity to quickly put the beast core that was originally in his pocket into the jar, and looked warily at Jinbo in the sky:

"He tried to steal my beast core!"

Xu Lin: "......"
