Who would dare charge him an admission fee!
The survivor hurriedly shook his head vigorously in denial, saying, "No, no, we were just invited here to guard the area!"
"To guard the place?"
Ye Li frowned.
"Yes, to guard the place!"
The young survivor nodded.
At that moment, he felt his mouth was dry and his heart was pounding like a deer.
It looked like it was about to jump out of his throat.
"You really won't accept it?"
Ye Li looked into the survivor's eyes and asked again.
"No!"
The young survivor shook his head decisively.
"What's the purpose of this resource area? Why are so many people gathered here? And are you here to guard the place?"
Ye Li continued to press for answers, his gaze sweeping over the survivors standing guard.
Wherever their gaze fell, everyone couldn't help but reveal a kind smile.
"A motorcade is holding a grand event inside!"
The young survivor stated the truth.
"A grand event?"
Ye Li asked in confusion, wondering how these people could still be in the mood to hold a grand event in a world where they could be attacked by Soul-Devouring Beasts at any time.
"You guys are really carefree!"
"Heh, this kind of grand event is none of our business. We're just guards!"
The young survivor gave a wry smile and quickly explained.
Ye Li turned to look at Bai Yuekui in the driver's seat and asked, "Want to go join the fun?"
"Um!"
Bai Yuekui nodded.
She hadn't seen so many living people in a long time since the disaster struck and her companions died one after another.
After receiving Bai Yuekui's reply, Ye Li craned his neck to look at the back of the carriage and shouted, "Wukong, you and Jianjian stay here and watch over our carriage!"
"Chirp! Chirp chirp!"
—No! I want to play too!
Upon hearing this, the little stone monkey immediately cried out in displeasure.
"Be good, when you come back, I'll bring you something delicious!"
Ye Li patted the little stone monkey's head and coaxed it with a smile.
"Chirp chirp."
--Oh well.
The little stone monkey reluctantly shrugged, but under the temptation of the delicious food, it finally gave in.
After Ye Li and Bai Yuekui got out of the car, the survivors who were originally on guard duty on the roof were instantly attracted by Bai Yuekui's cold and beautiful face.
However, they soon felt a chill rise from behind them, which made them shiver.
All the survivors instinctively turned to look at Ye Li, only to see him staring at them with an almost icy gaze, as if he wanted to pierce through their bodies.
"Please come in, please come in!"
The young survivor reacted the fastest, quickly bending down and respectfully inviting Ye Li and Bai Yuekui into the resource area.
Others followed suit, burying their heads even lower, wishing they could shrink into their crotches, no longer daring to show the slightest disrespect.
"Keep an eye on the car. If there's even the slightest scratch, we'll break your legs!"
Ye Li's cold gaze swept over the survivors again, his tone as icy as frost.
Everyone felt a tingling sensation down their spines, as if pricked by needles, but dared not show any reluctance. They could only nod and smile, saying repeatedly, "We'll definitely keep an eye on it! We'll definitely keep an eye on it!"
Ye Li nodded in satisfaction and led Bai Yuekui through the vehicles toward the central resource area.
As they got closer to the center of the resource zone, the surrounding noise grew louder and louder.
