"A familiar taste? You mean Master Bai's taste?"
Li Qingyu was taken aback by Mu Xi's words. How come he didn't smell it? He was also very familiar with Master Bai's scent.
Mu Xi took a deep breath, her eyes filled with a hint of seriousness, and slowly said, "It's not Master Bai... it seems to be my sister... Molly's scent..."
"Um?!"
"Molly..."
"That mad witch? What a coincidence..." Li Qingyu looked at Mu Xi beside him with some surprise, and couldn't help but ask again, "Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
Mu Xi nodded with lingering fear, involuntarily shrinking back.
There was no way around it... Moli had really messed with Mu Xi yesterday, and Mu Xi was still a little traumatized.
Upon hearing Mu Xi's confirmation, Li Qingyu, who was looking back at the island ahead, also became slightly serious. Li Qingyu clearly remembered... the strength of that mad witch back then!
To put it bluntly... as fellow seeded contenders from the witch clan... Mu Xi's strength compared to her sister's...
Molly doesn't look like Muxi's sister at all; he looks more like Muxi's father... someone who can beat Muxi at will, without her resisting...
However, Li Qingyu's heavy mood wasn't because he was worried he wouldn't be able to defeat the mad witch, but rather because he was somewhat concerned...
That woman, Master Bai...
How are you now?
Li Qingyu didn't think that Master Bai could defeat that mad witch just by relying on his talent to transform into a tiger.
Of all the other civilization contenders Li Qingyu knows, perhaps only Lilith, the second child, can rival the Mad Witch in combat strength. But that's only in terms of combat strength; in terms of unpredictability and survival ability, the second child is far inferior.
Since the Mad Witch is here...
Li Qingyu narrowed his eyes and reached into his pocket with his right hand.
After a short while, Li Qingyu pulled the SS-grade Sword of Defeat and Betrayal out of his pocket.
Looking at the knight's greatsword, its body a deep black and red, faintly gleaming, Li Qingyu sighed inwardly. He knew that this time, he might have to bind it to his sword.
Without a targeted strike, it's impossible to truly kill the mad witch; she'll only continue to escape.
However, Li Qingyu only held the sword in his hand and did not actually bind it. He decided to go to the island first to see the situation before making any further decisions.
So Li Qingyu mounted the husky, brandishing his greatsword, and quickly approached the island with his two secretaries. Meanwhile, the enormous, comical smiling face in the sky followed Li Qingyu's movements, its slightly amused black eyes darting around.
Not long after, Li Qingyu, accompanied by two female secretaries, arrived at a small town near the ocean on the edge of the island.
After taking a quick look around the desolate town, Li Qingyu had a strong urge to have Erha use a super-dimensional destructive wave to completely raze the town.
"Mu Xi, can you still sense Master Bai's exact location?" Li Qingyu asked Mu Xi beside him while scanning the dilapidated houses on the port.
Upon hearing Li Qingyu's question, Mu Xi closed her eyes and took a deep breath...
A few seconds later...
Mu Xi opened her eyes and shrugged helplessly.
"I can sense Master Bai's presence, but it's spread all over this island, so I can't pinpoint her exact location at all."
"Scattered all over this island... Don't tell me Master Bai is dead!?" Li Qingyu was startled by the result Mu Xi sensed.
Damn it...
Could it be that Bai Shi, that woman, was dismembered by the mad witch? And then her remains were scattered all over the island?
"No, he's not dead..." Mu Xi quickly waved her little hand, "I can still sense a trace of Master Bai's fear, so Master Bai is definitely not dead."
Suddenly, as if she had discovered something, Mu Xi stared at the void nearby.
Immediately afterwards, Mu Xi slowly reached out and suddenly scooped up the surrounding air.
Mu Xi's strange actions left Li Qingyu, who was standing beside her, completely bewildered. However, when Mu Xi held out her small hand in front of him, Li Qingyu realized what Mu Xi had been scooping up.
A single, yellowish-white hair lay quietly in Mu Xi's palm. And that hair was trembling intermittently, as if it were about to die...
"Forehead...."
Li Qingyu smacked his lips.
"Don't tell me... this is Master Bai's hair?"
Mu Xi nodded silently, then casually tossed the lifeless hair away, letting it drift in the wind...
Goodness...
Did Master Bai get his fur shaved...? That's why he's all over the island... How much fur did he have to shave?!
But that's not the key point. The key point is...
Master Bai's hair, damn it, can even move on its own!!!
Li Qingyu suddenly realized that things were getting serious. First of all... Master Bai couldn't have removed his own hair, so there was only one possibility... Master Bai was forced to remove his hair!
Furthermore... Master Bai himself was probably quite seriously infected with the virus...
Didn't you see that hair... it's moving on its own now...?
Li Qingyu suddenly lost much hope of being able to save Master Bai intact. He only hoped that he could keep him alive so that Qiqi could still use the Blessing of Nature to recover.
After glancing at his two secretaries, Li Qingyu thought for a moment and then instructed the demon assassin, "Go and find out the location of the humans on the island. If you can rescue them yourself, I promise to release your young lady before the competition ends."
Hmm... I'll release your young lady, but not you...
Li Qingyu silently added a sentence in his mind.
That's right. If the great assassin can really rescue Master Bai, Li Qingyu will definitely keep his promise and release Lilith.
Trading one alien for one teammate is a win-win deal no matter how you look at it.
Upon hearing Li Qingyu's promise, the demon assassin's usually calm eyes suddenly lit up.
"You said it yourself!"
“Yes, I said so.” Li Qingyu nodded.
It's just a second child, what's there for him to be reluctant about?
This princess still has twenty-two pregnancies in her mind. Am I being arrogant?
Having received Li Qingyu's promise, the assassin vanished from the spot without the slightest hesitation.
Vanished without a trace, as if it had never happened in the first place...
It's as if the great assassin never existed.
