2568 On the Brink of Life and Death for a Day and a Half!
After traveling for another half an hour, Bei Xu acted as though he had just realized the absence of the source-type item and started retracing his steps in order to find it.
When he returned to the original spot, he saw that the source-type item was gone.
The area that Bei Xu had just passed was a desolate space that did not produce any resources. It was possible that no one had passed it for the past two hours. Even if people had traveled past, it would be difficult for them to notice the source-type item he had tossed to the ground in such a vast space.
When Bei Xu connected this with the alarm bells of danger that were ringing in his head, he instinctively feared that he was being targeted.
This caused his heart to sink.
He was about to meet Lin Yuan at any time. Yet, something like this had happened at such a juncture.
After pondering for a moment, Bei Xu concluded that the one targeting him was that elite bigshot.
Since they had followed him all the way here, there was no way they would give up!
The gears in Bei Xu’s head turned as he tried to devise a plan. At the same time, he acted as though nothing was happening as he ordered his subordinates, “Search thoroughly! I only took out the source-type item here. There is a high chance that I lost it here! If the boss finds out I lost a source-type item, he won’t let me or any of you off!”
Bei Xu realized that the other party was not making any direct moves because they wanted to net his faction as well. He could use this opportunity to stall for time.
As a native of the Grotto Continent, Bei Xu felt a mix of respect and trepidation toward this city. He did not try to shoulder the matter on his own, nor did he worry about bothering Lin Yuan. He immediately sought help from Lin Yuan through the Thoughts Letter Paper.
Lin Yuan was still a day and a half of travel away from the Radiance Federation. He was relaxingly sitting on a water stream under Dazzling Silver’s control as he flipped through the Annal of Monster Information.
This was the only plan now.
Bei Xu was a decisive person. Once he made a decision, he would see it through.
He told his teammates about the current situation without wavering. These people were his blood zombies, and they had brushed against death alongside him. Their ties ran deep, which was why Bei Xu had chosen them to enter the city with him to search for information.
When Bei Xu returned to search for the source-type item, the butler knew that he had made a mistake. He should not have been greedy and taken the item.
Luckily, Bei Xu gave up after searching for a few hours. Otherwise, the butler would have to start thinking about taking action to prevent Bei Xu from becoming suspicious.
But after chasing Bei Xu for almost half a day, the butler couldn’t help but feel that something was wrong. They had been traveling for far too long. It was clear that something was not right.
The butler instinctively used his experience to come to the conclusion that this group of ‘rats’ had realized that someone was tailing them and was trying to stall for time.
Since this group of ‘rats’ was so disobedient, the butler had to use his second plan.
Besides allowing this group of ‘rats’ to return to their nest, he could also use threats and intimidation to force them into a corner. He had used this method to handle and tame several disobedient ‘rats’ in the past.
The butler waved his hand, and the two people behind him summoned their feys.
The formidable aura of Myth Breed feys enveloped Bei Xu’s group.
When Bei Xu sensed this pressure, he knew that there was no need to summon the Blood Parasite Witch Fish because it was only Suzerain/Myth I. It was no match for these enemies with Suzerain/Myth III feys!
Bei Xu did not want to lose his feys because once he did, he would become useless to Lin Yuan!
Hence, Bei Xu prepared to wave the white flag and was going to tell his companions not to resist either.
