46: To leave behind a pure reputation in the world.
"Pfft!"
In a patch of grass, a figure was crouching. Along with the pattering sounds, he let out another comfortable groan.
"So refreshing!"
Yu Bing's face was incomparably joyful; it seemed like nothing had ever felt as comfortable as this moment!
He muttered, "Hey! My constipation of so many years has actually been cured. It really is a miracle drug!"
He even thought about asking Li Xue, Martial Academy for some more when he got back; it was much more effective than that stuff like glycerin enema.
Rumble!
Just then, the ground suddenly began to tremble.
Yu Bing's expression panicked, subconsciously thinking it was an earthquake.
No... that's not right! How could there be an earthquake in an Alien Space?
This is a damn beast herd!
Yu Bing's heart instantly jumped into his throat.
He couldn't be that unlucky, right? He was hiding so well, he shouldn't get discovered, right?
Hmm, even if a demon beast noticed him, there was a high probability they would just mistake him for excrement, after all, he smelled so bad...
"Hey! Buddy, are you having a good time pooping?"
Just at this moment, a playful voice rang out.
Yu Bing's heart jolted, and he subconsciously turned his head.
He was shocked to see a guy wearing a gas mask standing on a high tree trunk, holding a mobile phone pointed at him.
Even more insulting was the fact that the other guy had actually turned on the flash!
Yu Bing immediately broke down: "Fang Bai! It's you again!"
Fang Bai grinned and said, "That's right! It is your daddy!"
Yu Bing's gaze fell onto his phone, his face looking ugly: "You actually dared to take candid photos! What do you want?!"
Fang Bai said with a grin, "Hmm, what do you think would happen if I posted this online? Do you think people would recognize it's you?"
"?!!"
Yu Bing's expression immediately turned sour, and he shouted angrily, "You dare?!"
Fang Bai laughed in an incredibly cheeky way: "Student Yu, you're being very arrogant!"
The corner of Yu Bing's mouth twitched, and then, suppressing his anger, he asked in a negotiating tone, "What do you want?"
He could die here, but he had to keep his reputation clean in the world!
Fang Bai's phone contained a large amount of his social suicide photos and videos.
Every single one of them, if released, would be enough to have him socially whipped dozens of times over!
Fang Bai said with a smile, "We're all classmates, I can give you a discount. Ten million, and I'll delete them. How about it?"
Yu Bing's eyes widened: "Ten million?! Are you fucking robbing me?"
Fang Bai replied calmly, "Isn't that exactly what I'm doing?"
Yu Bing: "..."
He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have that much cash!"
Fang Bai raised an eyebrow: "That doesn't matter. We're all classmates, you can write an IOU. Besides, after this mission is over, won't you have money?"
"..."
After a moment of silence, Yu Bing said powerlessly, "Fine!"
Fang Bai clapped his hands: "Straightforward!"
He said with a smile, "Then you continue doing your business, I won't disturb you anymore."
After a pause, Fang Bai suddenly said, "Oh right, I forgot to tell you, there are over a dozen demon beasts coming this way. You... hurry up with your business."
After saying this, Fang Bai's figure disappeared.
Yu Bing's face stiffened. The next second, he decisively pulled up his pants and ran for it, forgetting even to wipe!
Damn it! This bastard intentionally lured the demon beasts over here!
Just one minute after Yu Bing fled, the herd of demon beasts chased after him.
They all stopped one after another.
The faint stench permeating the air caused them to lose Fang Bai's scent.
However, one of the hunting dogs suddenly let out a low growl; it had detected a special stench moving rapidly away!
The next moment, all the demon beasts immediately gave chase!
Yu Bing: "..."
After they had gone far away, Fang Bai's figure returned to the scene. He looked at the continuously collapsing trees and clicked his tongue: "Student Yu! I hope you're still alive."
With ten million on the line, Fang Bai suddenly didn't want him to die anymore.
Without stopping, Fang Bai turned and ran in another direction.
The night was long, and being alone made it much more convenient for him to move about.
...
Meanwhile, Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others finally arrived at the Demon Slaying Army base.
At that moment, a patrol team happened to be passing by and directly stopped them: "What are you doing here?"
Li Xue, Martial Academy said in a deep voice, "A large number of demon beasts have appeared in the mountain range, and my classmate is trapped. I hope the base can send troops to support!"
Upon hearing this, the few soldiers exchanged glances. One of the soldiers said, "Sorry, miss, without orders from our superiors, we cannot leave the base."
Li Xue, Martial Academy frowned and suddenly said, "The person trapped is a friend of Senior Thousand Cuts Fu!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers' expressions immediately turned strange.
"Are you sure?"
Li Xue, Martial Academy nodded.
The soldier hesitated and said, "That shouldn't be right. Since he is a friend of Senior Thousand Cuts Fu, how could he be surrounded by demon beasts? How is his strength?"
"Tier 2."
Upon hearing this, the soldier's expression stiffened, with a look that said, "Are you fucking kidding me?"
Does Senior Thousand Cuts Fu have such a weak friend?
"Brother, please let us go see Senior Thousand Cuts Fu first!"
The soldier hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Alright then, follow me."
Soon, Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others found Thousand Cuts Fu.
"It's you guys again. Why are you back?"
Thousand Cuts Fu raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.
Zhang Zifeng said with a trembling voice, "Senior, those demon beasts are bullying people too much! They don't follow the martial code, bullying the few with the many, forming groups and attacking us one by one. It's simply too foul!"
Li Xue, Martial Academy and Huo Qi: "..."
Thousand Cuts Fu's expression was strange: "This... demon beasts are our mortal enemies to begin with. Them bullying the few with the many doesn't seem to be a problem, right?"
Zhang Zifeng quickly said, "The one being bullied is Fang Bai! It's the teenager you saved last time!"
Upon hearing this, Thousand Cuts Fu looked surprised: "So it's that little guy. But what did you guys do this time?"
Hearing this, the three of them fell silent simultaneously, seemingly finding it hard to speak.
Thousand Cuts Fu sneered, "What? You dare to do it but dare not admit it?"
Zhang Zifeng and the others looked at each other, and finally, it was Huo Qi who recounted the sequence of events.
Upon hearing that these little guys had actually fed laxatives to the demon beasts, Thousand Cuts Fu's expression immediately became strange.
He glanced at Li Xue, Martial Academy: "Little girl, have you been to the other side of the 'Wall'?"
This behavior and style are a bit like the people on the other side of the Wall!
Li Xue, Martial Academy shook her head: "No, I haven't, Senior."
Thousand Cuts Fu sighed, "It would be a pity if you guys didn't go to guard the Wall in the future. You are all talents!"
"???"
The group was collectively bewildered. No, why didn't that sound like a compliment?
Thousand Cuts Fu said indifferently, "Alright, this little matter doesn't need me to intervene. Considering you are the future of the Martial Academy, I'll let it slide this once. Usually, for those guys who enter the secret realm, we wouldn't lift a finger regardless of whether they live or die."
"Thank you, Senior!"
Thousand Cuts Fu nodded and said, "Alright, I will handle this matter. You guys go rest in the base first."
"We'll go together!"
Li Xue, Martial Academy's gaze was firm. Both Yu Bing and Fang Bai were her teammates. If she abandoned them and didn't rescue them, she would be an ungrateful person.
Soon, a Four-Star Demon Slaying General led Li Xue, Martial Academy and the others back into the mountain range...
