76: The archaeological institute's proof is a slap in the face for the young heartthrob.

Just as Zhang Dada was waiting for Ye Bai's response, the voice of the Cameraman beside them arrived.

"What did the Archaeological Team say?"

When Cai Xukun heard this, he immediately became interested, mainly because he was waiting to see Ye Bai humiliated.

Let him show off; now he should taste the feeling of being slapped in the face.

"The Professor of Archaeology said that everything Mr. Ye Bai said was correct, exactly as he described."

The Cameraman watched as Cai Xukun's excited eyes gradually turned to shock.

What?

Everything Ye Bai said was true?

And it was personally confirmed by a Professor from the Archaeology Academy.

Cai Xukun felt his head buzzing, completely unable to believe it.

It wasn't just him; Zhang Dada, Hua Chenyu, and Huang Zitao were all shaken. Deep down, they hadn't believed that what Ye Bai had just said was true either.

But now... they felt a burning sensation on their faces.

As if they had been slapped.

Reba and Yang Mi opened their eyes wide in shock.

Everything Ye Bai said was true... How amazing!!

After the initial shock, Yang Mi suddenly remembered what he had said—that this monarch was inherently cruel. Thinking of this, she looked toward the statue they had passed earlier.

Perhaps that wasn't just an ordinary statue, but a historical record.

"That... that monarch is truly terrifying."

Yang Mi spoke with a heavy tone.

"Indeed, if everything Ye Bai said is true, then this monarch was genuinely cruel."

Reba felt a sense of dread when she thought about the monarch taking pleasure in the suffering of his people.

"Will we see more terrifying scenes next?"

Bai Lu was somewhat scared; the statue she had just seen made her feel extremely uneasy.

"It's fine even if we do. We have Ye Bai, so there's nothing to fear!"

Yang Chaoyue said without hesitation.

Yang Mi, Reba, and Bai Lu all focused their attention on Ye Bai.

Ye Bai, who was currently the center of attention, glanced at the writings on the wall without changing his expression, then turned and continued walking.

No matter what, he had to go inside and see.

He still needed to increase his role-playing completion.

Seeing Ye Bai walk in, the five people including Yang Mi quickly followed.

Wu Jing did not hesitate and followed Ye Bai further inside.

Zhang Dada and Cai Xukun were thoroughly shown up by Ye Bai and were very unhappy, but they had no choice but to follow silently behind.

The group continued walking deeper inside.

Twenty minutes later.

The group walked past the end of the Passage and arrived inside a huge stone cave.

Just as everyone entered, the dim space instantly became bright.

The Skull Oil Lamps on the walls were ignited in an instant.

As the space brightened, Yang Mi and the others were finally able to clearly see the surrounding environment.

In the enormous space, a gigantic Corpse Scent Konjac occupied each of the four cardinal directions (east, south, west, north). In the very center was a red pool, surrounded by four pipes.

At a glance, it looked like a ruby within the cave.

But they had no time to worry about the decorations of this cave; instead, they were all fearfully staring at the Corpse Scent Konjac in front of them.

They subconsciously took a step back, their eyes filled with terror.

They had just paid the price for the Corpse Scent Konjac, and the cost was too high.

If one was already like that, and now four arrived all at once... are they even allowing people to live?

No wonder they smelled a faint fragrance at the end of the Passage; they had thought it seemed familiar, and now they saw it was too familiar.

"S-should we... should we leave? This is the Corpse Scent Konjac, and there are four of them..."

Zhang Dada was so scared his legs were shaking. Now, seeing the Corpse Scent Konjac, he felt like bursting into tears.

"Yes, yes, yes!! Let's go, let's go!!"

Hua Chenyu was so frightened he was almost crying, his features frozen in panic, nodding frantically.

Finally, as if remembering something, he looked at Ye Bai with resentment.

"It's all your fault. If we hadn't come in privately, we wouldn't have encountered these things. This is all your fault."

Ye Bai didn't care about Hua Chenyu's accusation, but Yang Chaoyue and the others weren't having it.

"Who told you to come? Couldn't you have just waited up above?"

Yang Chaoyue was actually very scared too, but knowing Ye Bai was there made her feel like there was nothing to worry about.

Hua Chenyu was countered by Yang Chaoyue, and for a moment his expression was complicated, unsure if he was more afraid or annoyed.

Inside the Live Stream Room—

[Holy crap, holy crap!! How the hell are there more? Isn't the Corpse Scent Konjac supposed to be rare? One is already difficult to deal with, so how are there four now? This isn't logical.]

[Ahhh!! It's the Corpse Scent Konjac again! Why are there so many? Four all at once!!]

[No way!! Who can handle this? Why is there still Corpse Scent Konjac? Isn't this deadly?]

[Oh dear!! Stop talking and run quickly!! Can't you see my Kun Kun is terrified?]

[Nonsense! My Hua Hua is also scared! It's best to leave immediately, don't waste time!!]

[Run quickly!!!]

After seeing this situation, the fans' bullet comments flashed in unison, all expressing concern for the celebrities.

The Corpse Scent Konjac is cultivated using corpses; one flower requires so many bodies to nourish it.

This time there are four, plus the one they saw before, that makes five... Holy crap! The monarch of the Yelang Kingdom was truly cruel and inhumane, cultivating the Corpse Scent Konjac just like that!!

He really didn't treat the common people as human beings.

Inside the Archaeology Academy.

When the professors saw the four Corpse Scent Konjac, they all stood up in unison. What the hell... what kind of place is this?

Is the Corpse Scent Konjac as common as street litter, with them everywhere?

Usually, seeing one results in heavy losses, but now four have arrived all at once, occupying the four corners... It's over!

It's over!!

Can Ye Bai manage this time? Can he deal with four Corpse Scent Konjac?

"I should still call the Production Team and ask where the Rescue Team is."

One of the professors had panic in his eyes, and the hand holding his phone was trembling.

"Don't call, let's wait a little longer."

The professor next to him quickly pressed down on his hand and shook his head.

"Wait? Haven't you seen Ye Bai and the others encounter the Corpse Scent Konjac? There are four of them, and they are all emitting fragrance! Who can escape that? Isn't that just waiting to die?"

That professor looked at his colleague in disbelief. How dangerous was this!

"Look at Ye Bai. There is no panic in his expression. We are terrified by the sight of the Corpse Scent Konjac, but he might not be afraid. Wait a bit longer."

"Besides, calling now is useless. Even if the Rescue Team wants to help, it will take time."

The professor next to him was trying to maintain his composure. He was actually very worried about Ye Bai too, but worrying wouldn't help.

Fortunately, Ye Bai's expression was still calm, which reassured him somewhat.

In the Forbidden Ground.

Ye Bai looked at the Corpse Scent Konjac and slowly drew the black gold ancient blade from his person.

Yang Mi wanted to lead Ye Bai away, but before she could reach out to pull him, she saw Ye Bai charging toward one of the Corpse Scent Konjac, black gold ancient blade in hand.

Ye Bai's speed was extremely fast, so fast that they could only see afterimages.

Yang Mi's hand had just reached out, and now it froze instantly.

"Ye Bai..."
