Ye Bai has always adhered to the principle of striking first to gain the upper hand.
If you're going to challenge someone to a fight, it's best to run them over with a dump truck the day beforehand; that way, you're guaranteed to win every time.
Ying Jiu's answer was also straightforward: "No."
"If you want to kill Lian Liankan, you have to find him first. The Demon God has covered his whereabouts."
The leader of the Fourth Demonic Cult is called Lianliankan?
What kind of weird name is this?! Did you just randomly search for it on 4399?
Ye Bai couldn't help but roll his eyes. This guy's name was chosen so casually.
The assassination plot failed, so Ye Bai had to settle for second best.
"Could you call a few more people to protect me?"
The more war gods the better; ideally, one command could summon 100,000 war gods, arriving in a grand procession aboard a green train.
Ying Jiu still shook her head.
"No, because of the appearance of a certain [Asura], the demons of the Abyss Plane have gone mad."
The human race is currently under severe strain across all fronts and simply cannot spare any manpower.
"Most importantly, the more War Gods we can spare, the more War Gods the enemy will have to target you."
Ying Jiu's words made a lot of sense, and Ye Bai couldn't refute them.
A higher level of competition is like a tug-of-war, with both sides locked in a stalemate, waiting for an unexpected factor to break the deadlock.
Despite repeated setbacks, Ye Bai remained undeterred.
"How about I pack up and move into the home of a supreme expert?"
"The strongest are always in the most dangerous places. Even the God of War is at risk of falling. Going there would be suicide."
"I understand. Maintaining the status quo is in my best interest."
Ying Jiu nodded, revealing an expression that suggested he was a promising student.
"Now that you've shown yourself, let me say a few more words to you so you can have a better understanding."
There are strict rules regarding who I will intervene against. I will not intervene against enemies below the peak Battle King level; you will have to deal with them on your own.
"Thank you, but I need some peace and quiet. I feel increasingly insecure."
As a Battle King-level opponent, it's one thing for Ye Bai to launch a sneak attack, but a direct confrontation is out of the question!
"One last question, about that little game, cough cough, the connect-the-dots game, if it comes up, are you confident you can win?"
This is also the issue that Ye Bai cares about most.
Being targeted by a war god is no joke!
"I can kill him with a single blow!"
Leaving behind an incredibly domineering statement, Ying Jiu's figure once again transformed into black mist and disappeared into the shadows on the ground.
In fact, he didn't stay by Ye Bai's side 24 hours a day. He spent most of his time patrolling around Ye Bai, checking everyone's combat strength, and taking precautions.
If the God of War gets close, even if Shadow Nine can kill him instantly, the aftershocks of the battle will still make Ye Bai pay a heavy price!
"Your words are truly insightful."
Ye Bai rubbed his temples. He realized that he still had to rely on himself to deal with enemies below the peak of the Battle King level.
Buzzing sound
Ye Bai's Trading Secret Realm Pass rang, indicating that a message had arrived.
"Liu Qingyan? Oh, right, I promised him I'd help his granddaughter get a DNA test."
Thinking of this, Ye Bai took out his pass, activated the tower mark, and entered the trading secret realm.
"Xueqi, you're here!"
Liu Qingyan had been waiting for a long time, and upon seeing the lightning element, he immediately stepped forward to greet it.
"Fourth Brother, I'm sorry to bother you. This is my granddaughter, Liu Xueqi."
As he spoke, Liu Qingyan looked at his granddaughter and said, "Call him Fourth Master."
Liu Xueqi nodded, her voice clear and crisp, "Greetings, Fourth Master."
Ye Bai: ...This generational hierarchy is too messed up.
