85: Chapter 85: A Traitor from Another Race, An Encounter!

Next,

Under He Wenguang's guidance, Zi Ming and his group casually headed in one direction.

Meanwhile, Zi Ming began chatting with Yun Ming Luochen.

However, compared to He Wenguang's fear of death and willingness to compromise, the two were quite resolute.

They basically refused to cooperate the entire time, offering only ridicule towards Zi Ming and the other aliens.

Zi Ming and his group were naturally furious, but they didn't do anything, treating it as mere amusement during their journey.

...

And on the other side,

Li Fan's group.

Compared to He Wenguang's miserable situation,

Li Fan's progress was incredibly smooth.

Advancing along the way,

he not only annihilated every alien monster they encountered without leaving a trace,

but the team also successfully expanded from seven or eight hundred people to nearly two thousand, with the number still increasing.

And what was very interesting was this:

While humanity had a guiding traitor in He Wenguang,

the alien side also had a guiding traitor.

From this alien traitor's account,

Li Fan's group gained an understanding of the overall structure of the aliens currently in the secret realm.

Among them,

the main core members of the aliens were that group led by Zi Ming.

As long as Zi Ming's group of aliens was eliminated, the remaining alien monsters would just be scattered remnants that couldn't amount to much.

Therefore, Li Fan and his group's target was set directly toward Zi Ming and his followers.

And unlike He Wenguang's nonsense,

due to the alien's excellent sense of smell and keen observation of his own kind, he was genuinely leading Li Fan's group toward the direction of Zi Ming and the others.

This was because the alien traitor's heart was quite simple: he just hoped to find Zi Ming so that Lord Zi Ming and the others could kill Li Fan and rescue him.

However, Li Fan didn't care about such thoughts at all.

From the alien traitor, they also learned that,

according to the original plan of their Hall Master, they were prepared to send another batch of alien geniuses in. It was only due to some inexplicable change that only Zi Ming, one alien genius, managed to enter.

This meant,

they were still considered lucky.

If more Transcendent Rank alien prodigies had arrived,

then probably, apart from Li Fan, everyone else wouldn't even have the chance to gather together to find Li Fan.

Outside the secret realm, watching Li Fan's group heading toward Zi Ming's group,

the audience couldn't help but frown deeply.

Although Li Fan's strength had already been proven,

Zi Ming's side had a full nine Transcendent Ranks, and Zi Ming himself far surpassed the others.

This lineup's power truly made people feel uneasy.

Could Li Fan alone truly withstand them?

If he couldn't hold on,

then all the New Students who were S-Rank would be completely wiped out this time!

"Li Fan and his group are being a bit unwise..."

"Indeed, they should have just hidden from them and waited until the third day."

"Yeah, if they wait until the third day, they can get out. Now that they have rashly sought a fight, if they fail, the consequences are unimaginable!"

"Alright, alright. Li Fan and the others inside don't know they can get out on the third day. Since they've already gone, we can only hope Li Fan's strength is powerful enough!"

"Sigh, it's going to be tough..."

...

And at the same time,

in another location,

a crisp slap echoed on He Wenguang's face.

As the slap landed, He Wenguang spat out a few broken teeth.

"Where exactly is Li Fan? Didn't you say he was in this direction?!"

That's right.

The group had traveled for a long time following the direction He Wenguang pointed,

yet they hadn't seen a single soul.

This truly caused Zi Ming and his group to lose their patience.

"It... it's just ahead."

He Wenguang endured the intense pain and continued pointing forward, feeling utterly desperate because he didn't know how much longer his deception could fool Zi Ming and the others.

Once they lost patience,

his life would come to an end.

He had never wanted to see Li Fan more than in this moment!

Watching He Wenguang being tortured,

truly satisfied Yun Ming Luochen and the audience.

They had actually guessed by now:

He Wenguang didn't know where Li Fan was at all!

Leading the way was merely a facade for He Wenguang to cling to life.

"Walk another hundred miles. If you still haven't seen Li Fan, you can die then."

Zi Ming looked at He Wenguang slowly and said.

One hundred miles.

This was his final measure of patience.

Hearing this, He Wenguang's heart tightened, and he felt his life begin a death countdown very acutely.

...

Time passed bit by bit.

The hundred-mile journey was covered in an instant.

But clearly, Li Fan's figure was still nowhere in sight.

Zi Ming's patience finally reached its end at this moment.

"Kid, you're playing me, aren't you?"

Zi Ming grinned as he approached He Wenguang, his eyes filled with killing intent.

He Wenguang was trembling at this moment, completely afraid to look directly into Zi Ming's eyes.

"Actually, Li Fan and the others should be just..."

He Wenguang gritted his teeth, still trying to struggle a bit longer.

But before he could finish speaking,

Zi Ming grabbed He Wenguang and ripped off one of his arms, tossing it to the aliens behind him.

In an instant, the arm was gnawed down to the bone.

"Ah!"

The intense pain caused He Wenguang to scream uncontrollably.

Witnessing this scene, even Yun Ming Luochen and Luo Chen, who wished He Wenguang dead, couldn't help but twitch the corners of their eyes, their expressions grave.

These aliens were even more brutal than they had imagined!

"You still think you can fool me?"

Zi Ming sneered at He Wenguang.

He wasn't an idiot; he wouldn't believe He Wenguang's nonsense anymore.

However,

just as he was preparing to grant He Wenguang a quick end,

an alien scout from up ahead shouted and galloped over at high speed.

"Lord Zi Ming! A massive human team has been spotted ahead!"

Upon hearing this,

Zi Ming's gaze immediately shifted to He Wenguang.

Could it be that he had wrongly accused He Wenguang?

He Wenguang at this moment also seemed to have grasped a lifeline. While taking out healing medicine from his space ring to stop the bleeding, he shouted:

"It's Li Fan! Li Fan and his group are right ahead!"

Behind him,

the expressions of Yun Ming Luochen and Luo Chen became even more solemn.

Good heavens.

Did this He Wenguang really know Li Fan's whereabouts?

"Not bad, not bad. It seems I misjudged you."

"But don't celebrate too early. If Li Fan isn't in that team, you will still die!"

Zi Ming patted He Wenguang's shoulder then, his face full of false kindness.

He Wenguang, whose bleeding had stopped, looked grim, then forced a smile,

"Don't worry, Li Fan is definitely in that team!"

And this time,

it obviously didn't disappoint He Wenguang.

That team was indeed the one Li Fan was in!

And similar to He Wenguang's fate, the alien traitor was also there.

Because Li Fan's group had followed the alien traitor for a long time without seeing Zi Ming, they were also gradually losing patience.

Fortunately,

at the crucial moment,

a student walking ahead spotted the figures of Zi Ming and his group.
