190: Yang Mi and Meng Ziyi's determination

"Ye Bai!"

When Yang Mi saw this, her eyes were filled with panic.

Seeing Ye Bai about to be completely surrounded by Tutelaries, her heart grew even more frantic.

She seemed to discern Ye Bai's intention and wanted to chase after him.

"Sister Mi!"

Seeing Yang Mi about to give chase, Reba and Bai Lu also wanted to follow.

Just as Meng Ziyi and Yang Chaoyue were about to run over, they were held back by the Archaeological Team and Wu Jing.

"You can't go over there!"

Seeing their actions, Professor Wang anxiously pulled them back. Going to Ye Bai's side now would be no different from seeking death, other than causing more trouble.

"Professor Wang, Ye Bai is in great danger alone. We have to go save him."

Yang Mi was truly terrified; she didn't want to experience losing Ye Bai again.

When something happened to Ye Bai last time, she suffered for a long time. She didn't want to feel that way ever again.

"We must leave immediately. That is Ye Bai's wish."

"You have to trust Ye Bai!"

Captain Zhao understood Yang Mi's feelings, but now was not the time to be emotional.

At this moment, they could only do as Ye Bai intended.

"But Ye Bai..."

Meng Ziyi didn't want to leave Ye Bai. Even if it meant death, she wanted to be with him.

"Don't worry about Ye Bai. He just told us to leave immediately, which means he has a way to deal with these things. If we stay here, we'll only hold him back."

As Captain Zhao spoke, he pulled Yang Mi and Reba back.

"You guys go! I'm waiting for Ye Bai here!"

Meng Ziyi insisted on waiting for Ye Bai. Wherever Ye Bai was, she would be too.

"I say, Meng Ziyi, do you want to get Ye Bai killed? Ye Bai doesn't need us waiting for him right now. Doing this will only harm him. You should leave immediately."

Zhang Dada was speechless upon hearing Meng Ziyi's words. What time did she think it was? She still had the heart for romance?

"Exactly! Can you kill those Tutelaries by staying here or something? You're wasting time. Forget whether Ye Bai will be dragged down by you, we're all going to die here."

Saying this, Cai Xukun didn't give her a choice and tried to pull her toward the inner passage.

"Let me go! Don't pull me!!"

Meng Ziyi was dragged away by Cai Xukun.

She tried to struggle, but somehow Cai Xukun seemed to have taken some strength-enhancing pill; she couldn't break free no matter what.

Reba, Bai Lu, and Yang Chaoyue were also worried about Ye Bai, but they felt that Cai Xukun and Zhang Dada were right.

Staying here would only burden Ye Bai.

Moreover, there were many other people around—the Security Team, the Camera Crew, and the Search and Rescue Team. They could risk their own lives to stay with Ye Bai, but they couldn't implicate everyone else.

"Sister Mi! Let's just go. Captain Zhao is right. Staying here will only burden Ye Bai and everyone else. We can't make them wait for death because of us."

After thinking it over, Reba stood beside Yang Mi and whispered softly.

Hearing this, Yang Mi fell into a brief silence, followed by a profound sigh.

It wasn't that she didn't understand these things, but she just couldn't rest easy!!

"Let's go!" Yang Mi said, gritting her teeth.

She had already made up her mind: if anything happened to Ye Bai, she would die with him.

Since they were all cursed anyway, they wouldn't be able to get the muchen pearl without Ye Bai. They'd be dead regardless, so it was better to accompany Ye Bai in death sooner.

When Captain Zhao and Professor Wang heard Yang Mi relent, they both breathed a secret sigh of relief.

They noticed that the Tutelaries were currently focused on Ye Bai, so they took the opportunity to run toward the inner doorway.

Yang Mi kept looking back at Ye Bai with concern.

She saw Ye Bai being surrounded by the Tutelaries, fighting fiercely in their midst.

Seeing Ye Bai in such danger, her heart felt as if it were being squeezed by a giant hand, making it impossible to breathe.

The Cameraman also didn't forget to keep the lens trained on Ye Bai as he left.

The viewers couldn't see much else, only that Ye Bai was completely surrounded, and several Tutelaries suddenly lunged from the ground, opening their wide mouths to lunge at Ye Bai's head.

[Holy crap! He's surrounded. Can Ye Bai handle this? This is incredibly dangerous!!]

[Nonsense! I know it's dangerous; he's completely blocked in. But we can only trust Ye Bai!!]

[Once again, I feel that Ye Bai is truly great. He's sacrificing himself to save everyone!! This is so moving!]

[Moving my ass! I'm not moved, I'm just heartbroken. He's turned himself into bait. It's so dangerous!!]

[Wait! What's the situation? Why go this far? Is he crazy?]

[Ye Bai! Be careful!! That thing is coming!]

[Damn! Is Ye Bai the only real man among these people?]

[The real men aren't just Ye Bai; there's also the Search and Rescue Team and the Security Team. As for the celebrity team, I'm keeping my mouth shut.]

[Exactly, the celebrities don't count for much. I haven't had any hopes for them from the start!!]

The viewers sent bullet comments back and forth in the Live Stream Room, all of them worried for Ye Bai.

Though they knew Ye Bai was powerful, could even the strongest person deal with so many Tutelaries?

Two fists are no match for four hands.

Furthermore, these Tutelaries were different from Corpse Beetles. Corpse Beetles would 'clock out' at light speed upon touching Ye Bai's blood, but these things only died if they came into direct contact with it. Does Ye Bai have to keep bleeding himself?

The more they thought about it, the more worried the viewers became.

It wasn't just the viewers who were worried; the director and the high-level executives were just as nervous.

"Oh boy! What is Ye Bai doing? Wouldn't it be better to leave together? Why did he charge back in?"

One of the executives was so nervous he kept slapping his thigh.

Ye Bai's status was different now; he was highly valued by the Archaeological Team. If he really died, forget about what the Archaeology Academy would say—what would the celebrities and the Archaeological Team do?

Ye Bai was the key to finding the muchen pearl. Without him, even if they found it, it would be useless.

Wouldn't that just mean waiting for death all the same?

"I think Ye Bai is up to something!"

Another executive stroked his chin and whispered.

"What do you know now?"

The executive beside him looked at him with arms crossed.

"Ye Bai originally intended to leave with them, but he suddenly rushed back in. That's very suspicious. I think something is going on! But I don't know what it is."

"Also, don't worry about Ye Bai. He was so powerful before; he shouldn't get into trouble. Rest assured."

That executive said with a look of conviction.

"No, how can you be so sure? What if something happens to him? The teeth of those Tutelaries aren't just for show. Are you sure?"

The executive who spoke first was still uneasy.

"I'm sure. Just wait and see."

The executive said with great confidence.

The director felt like his heart hadn't been at ease for a single moment. What kind of life was he living today?
