81: The tactics were somewhat underhanded, but effective.

Xiao Song was stunned. This thing actually had a weakness?

Didn't they say it had no physical form? How could it have a weakness? This is unscientific!!

"Perhaps it does!"

Professor Han didn't know much about this creature; most of his information came from books, so he wasn't entirely clear.

"I saw Ye Bai stab something out from its head. Could that be the Crimson Flame Serpent's weakness?"

One of the professors stared at Ye Bai in shock, taking quite a while to regain his composure.

"It's possible. Professor Han is right; Ye Bai is indeed a talent. He might know more than we do—he even seems clearer about this creature than us."

Another professor's gaze never wavered, keeping his eyes fixed on Ye Bai.

"Is Ye Bai really from a Diploma Mill? This level of skill doesn't look like it at all. And the height he just jumped—a normal person couldn't do that."

"Right, right, right. How could a normal person jump so high?"

"I think we should also take a trip to the Forbidden Ground and snatch Ye Bai back!! We can't let the Archaeology Academy take advantage of being closer."

The professors were all amazed by Ye Bai, and some even began thinking of ways to get him into their School of Biology.

"The Archaeological Team is legal; it wouldn't be appropriate for us to go. We can only wait for Ye Bai to return."

"But I can make a move first."

Hearing their words, Professor Han seemed to remember something, and a confident smile appeared at the corners of his mouth.

"What do you mean?"

Xiao Song was taken aback, feeling that Professor Han's smile seemed quite dangerous.

"Didn't an International Biology Organization send us an invitation before, looking for unseen creatures, preferably with video footage?"

"This Crimson Flame Serpent is the best choice. Prepare the video and send it over directly."

Professor Han said with a smile.

"Right! This Crimson Flame Serpent is indeed the best choice!"

"The US often says their country's biological records are comprehensive; now let them see our creatures."

"But what does that have to do with us snatching the guy?"

After Professor Han finished speaking, the professors were first enlightened, but then confused. What did that have to do with Ye Bai?

"Only Ye Bai's figure will be in the video. As for his identity, there's no need to explain; whatever they guess is their business."

Professor Han waved his hand with a smile.

Although this method was a bit unethical, there was no other way. Qin Ye was simply too outstanding; he couldn't be taken away by the Archaeology Academy.

Upon hearing Professor Han's words, the other professors understood instantly.

They felt this was also a pretty good idea.

Inside the Tomb.

Yang Chaoyue let go of Ye Bai, her face flushed as she looked at him.

"Uh, that... I was just too excited, I didn't mean anything else."

Yang Chaoyue said the words, but her shy appearance was enough to make one's imagination run wild.

Yang Mi, Wu Jing, and the others hurried over.

Meanwhile, Reba and Meng Ziyi each stood by Ye Bai's side, their hands subconsciously gripping his arms as if marking their territory.

Wu Jing didn't notice the girls' thoughts. Instead, he looked at the Crimson Flame Serpent on the blade of Ye Bai's black gold ancient blade.

However, this Crimson Flame Serpent was quite small. Compared to the three-meter one, it was practically a miniature version.

"Ye Bai, you said before that this snake has no physical form. I couldn't even hurt this blood snake with my Dagger. Why could your blade kill it?"

This was what shocked Wu Jing the most at the moment; he didn't understand why Ye Bai could kill it.

"The Crimson Flame Serpent is raised in a blood pool and has no physical form—that is just a legend. The Crimson Flame Serpent's true body is hidden within the blood pool or the snake's body. Once you find the true body, you can kill it."

Seeing that the small red snake on the blade was dead, Ye Bai flicked his wrist, tossing the snake's body back into the blood pool, and calmly returned the black gold ancient blade to its sheath.

"But where did this snake come from? And why was its body like that?"

Yang Mi still felt lingering fear thinking about it; they were the ones closest to that blood snake.

"The most venomous snakes are placed in a jar and soaked with special herbs and blood—it must be the blood of a virgin. Once filled with blood, it is placed in a fierce fire to be tempered."

"After forty-nine days, the snake that survives is the Crimson Flame Serpent. These snakes are extremely bloodthirsty and are kept in blood water, just as you see now."

"Evil Arts were added to the blood pool; otherwise, it wouldn't have grown so large."

Ye Bai explained the origin of the snake clearly.

The group was stunned upon hearing this.

Then they looked at the nearby blood pool in horror.

They never imagined this blood pool had such a significant purpose, and it even involved Evil Arts... "Ye Bai, we know you're very capable, but these Evil Arts... isn't that a bit far-fetched? There's no way to prove something like that."

Cai Xukun couldn't help but sneer. This kind of stuff was only for fooling idiots!

Cai Xukun, Zhang Dada, and the others approached the blood pool.

They happened to overhear Ye Bai's explanation.

They hadn't expected to hear Ye Bai talking about Evil Arts.

Evil Arts were things you couldn't see or touch. Who knew if they were real?

"Then you tell me, how has this blood pool remained full for a thousand years without drying up?"

Yang Chaoyue found this guy Cai Xukun very annoying now, as annoying as a fly.

"I... how should I know? I'm not an archaeologist."

Hearing Yang Chaoyue's questioning, Cai Xukun felt guilty.

"If you don't know anything, then keep your mouth shut. How do you have the nerve to mock others here?"

Yang Chaoyue had an 'I knew it' look on her face.

This made Cai Xukun feel extremely displeased.

"Chaoyue, just say less. Some people naturally won't understand. After all, they run away when things happen and are so cowardly. Do you really want him to know? I'm afraid he'd be scared just by taking one more look at this blood snake."

Meng Ziyi chimed in from the side.

Reba, Bai Lu, and Yang Mi couldn't help but smile, feeling that what these two said made sense; the facts were indeed so.

Cai Xukun wanted to speak again but was stopped by Hua Chenyu.

"You are a pillar of the entertainment industry after all, and this is still a live stream. Don't bother speaking. Why lower yourself to argue with an ant?"

Hua Chenyu's words belittled Ye Bai as if he were worthless.

"Status is useless in here. But some people are right about one thing: an ant should have the awareness of an ant. Don't come out and jump around blindly."

Hearing Hua Chenyu talk about her Brother Ye Bai like that, Meng Ziyi immediately felt angry and fought back without hesitation.

Inside the Live Stream Room—

[Damn!! What did my Kun Kun say wrong? What Crimson Flame Serpent, what Evil Arts, what snake refined with fire? Wouldn't that just become snake soup?]

[Can this be believed? I don't believe it at all. I think my Kun Kun is right. And what Evil Arts? Who can see that?]

[You brainless fans, when has my Brother Ye Bai ever been wrong? If you don't believe it, ask the School of Biology!]
