154: Under immense pressure, they were compelled to go to the tomb of King Xian.

Wu Jing still couldn't figure it out after thinking for a long time; at that time, he had wanted Ye Bai to take action, because with that speed, it would have been very easy to knock down those Tomb Robbers.

But he actually refused, saying nothing would happen...

This was very confusing.

"Footsteps approaching."

Ye Bai just threw out these few words and stopped speaking.

But Wu Jing was dumbfounded again. What the hell?

Footsteps? Could it be the footsteps of the Search and Rescue Team?

How did Ye Bai hear that? What kind of ears are those?

What is going on here?

While Wu Jing was still standing there in silence, he heard whispering coming from the side.

"Do we really have to go to the Tomb of King Xian?"

"Can't we just have Ye Bai bring the muchen pearl out? I don't want to go!"

"We can just pay him, that would work too."

Cai Xukun had seen that Ye Bai agreed to be an external member of the Archaeology Academy for money, so he thought of using money to get Ye Bai to bring back the muchen pearl.

"How can you even say that? Whose life is that?"

Upon hearing Cai Xukun's words, Yang Chaoyue couldn't help but frown and say.

What does he think Ye Bai is? Does he think he can just dictate everything?

You want to save your own life by making Ye Bai take the risk?

"What's the matter? If we go, we won't be able to help, and we'll just be a burden to Ye Bai. It's better if he doesn't take us."

Cai Xukun said, acting as if he had Ye Bai's best interests at heart.

"That's actually true. If he does go, I'd be willing to pay too."

Huang Zitao also expressed his agreement.

"I still have a concert to hold. It was temporarily postponed because of this show, but now that it's over, I should go back and hold my concert."

Although Hua Chenyu wasn't as blunt as Huang Zitao, the implication in his words was already very obvious.

That is, he didn't have the time.

"So you guys don't want to go? And you're just waiting for the finished product?"

Meng Ziyi crossed her arms, her eyes full of mockery.

Their situation now is different from before. Given their performance along the way, I'm afraid they've already lost their fans, right?

"Whether you guys can even hold your concerts is still up in the air. You know what you've done along this journey, don't you? Do you still think you're as popular as you were before?"

Hearing that they wanted Ye Bai to risk his life alone and even wanted to use money to bribe him, Meng Ziyi felt angry just thinking about it.

Therefore, her words were quite vicious.

"What did you say? Are you jealous of us?"

Upon hearing this, Cai Xukun's expression immediately turned ugly.

"Jealous? I'm jealous of you cowards? What have you done along this journey? Why would I be jealous of you?"

Meng Ziyi laughed even more mockingly.

"You are not comparable to Ye Bai. Even if you think you are very impressive in the entertainment industry, when it comes to character, you are far behind."

Meng Ziyi's words were like knives, stabbing into them one by one.

Cai Xukun's expression was very gloomy; he walked over in a few steps and stood in front of her.

"Are you getting angry out of shame? I don't think Meng Ziyi said anything wrong."

Yang Mi stood beside Meng Ziyi, looking at him with her arms crossed.

"Are you even a man? How can you be shameless enough to raise a hand against a woman?"

Bai Lu suddenly spoke up from the side.

"When did I say I was going to use violence? You're overthinking it."

Cai Xukun was still trying hard to control himself, keeping a smile on his face as much as possible.

It was just that this smile was stiff.

Yang Mi, Reba, and Meng Ziyi were all looking at them with expressions of contempt.

In the Live Stream Room.

【Damn! I see cowardice in them; are they playing themselves?】

【It's not just cowardice; they also have no brains, and they are even disgusting. What kind of people are these? Do they really think they're all that just because they have money?】

【Exactly! Ye Bai is also a rich man now. This show is finished, so that money is his. He has enough to live comfortably without doing anything else now.】

【Exactly! What are these people thinking? They actually want my Ye Bai to take risks? How detestable.】

【Is that just detestable? It's disgusting. They've really grown some scheming minds. Oh my god! It's so annoying. I'm unfollowing, I must unfollow. I must have been blind to ever like Cai Xukun!! Except for his face... wait, now his face isn't even as good-looking as Ye Bai's.】

【Unfollowing immediately, unfollowing, unfollowing right now.】

The audience was already dissatisfied with Cai Xukun and Zhang Dada, and after hearing these words, they became even more dissatisfied.

So they collectively unfollowed them and went directly to follow Ye Bai on Weibo.

The celebrities' fan counts were visibly decreasing, while Ye Bai's fan count was visibly increasing.

Seeing this situation, the celebrities' agencies were furious, and Zhang Dada and the others' agents were scolded severely.

In the end, they decided to have the celebrities continue exploring the Tomb; no matter what, they had to turn their public personas around.

As for the production team.

They saw that this program event had been very successful.

Many netizens were even looking forward to it, hoping the production team would continue filming footage of the Tomb of King Xian.

The popularity of this live stream kept rising.

The director and executives had been on a roller coaster of excitement during this time; several executives were even on the verge of heart attacks. Is this even participating in a show? This is a life-threatening situation!

But fortunately, the results were good.

"Should we continue this show?"

"The popularity is indeed impressive, but... the danger is really too great. Even if we want to continue, those celebrities aren't willing, and their agencies are also..."

Just as the executives were pondering there, the director's phone rang.

It was from Yang Mi's agency.

"Hello?"

"What? Are you sure?"

"But if any problems arise..."

The more the director listened, the wider the smile on his face became.

"Good, good, good! Since you said so, I'll do as you say."

"Yes, yes, yes!!"

Just as the director put down the phone, he received a call from Cai Xukun's agent.

Inside the Tomb.

While Cai Xukun and Zhang Dada were still there discussing how to persuade Ye Bai to go to the Tomb of King Xian to retrieve the muchen pearl, the show released an announcement.

The Tomb of King Xian was the destination for the production team to continue exploring, and it would still be the original cast.

Once this news came out, the Cameraman relayed these words to the celebrities.

"What? Did I hear that right? The original cast?"

"Shouldn't this require my consent? I'm the one risking my life here!"

"Exactly, why didn't they discuss it with us? They just decided for us?"

"No way, I need to talk to my agent. I don't agree!!!"

Cai Xukun, Zhang Dada, Huang Zitao, and Hua Chenyu were all panicked and hurriedly took out their phones to contact their agents.

Just at this moment—

The captain of the Search and Rescue Team walked toward them.
