Chapter 1906: Chapter 1903: Don’t Drag Us Down! (5 Updates)

Lin Bai frowned, the Puppet King is the final puppet within the first floor, and once he is defeated, it means all the puppets inside the first floor have been slain.

When all the warriors on the first floor know there are no more puppets to kill, they will have to start fighting each other and plundering Red Pearl Tribute items to proceed to the second floor. At that time, the first floor will turn into a sea of blood!

“I found the warriors of the Ji Family.”

While Lin Bai was deep in thought, Luo Quan exclaimed with delight.

Lin Bai curiously asked, “Where?”

Luo Quan said, “10,000 miles to the north, but they’ve already left the limit of my sight. Their speed is extremely fast, it seems they are heading towards Puppet Mountain.”

“Do they want to hunt the Puppet King?”

Luo Quan exclaimed in surprise.

Lin Bai curiously asked, “How many warriors does the Ji Family have?”

Luo Quan said, “I don’t know the Ji Family’s warriors. I just inferred from their conversation that they are warriors from the six families of the Tai Ling Domain.”

“Among them, I saw a woman, possibly named Ji Qingqing. She is the strongest among the warriors from the Tai Ling Domain, and it is she who leads them to Puppet Mountain!”

Lin Bai squinted his eyes slightly and said calmly, “It seems the warriors of the Tai Ling Domain have not acquired enough Red Pearl Tribute items to leave the first floor, so they have to take one last gamble at Puppet Mountain.”

“Luo Quan, thanks for this. Since I found the people I wanted, I’ll not bother you further.”

Saying this, Lin Bai retrieved a flying sword from his storage bag, and darted forward like a stream of light, instantly widening the distance between him and Luo Quan.

Luo Quan was still processing, he looked up and was astonished to find that Lin Bai’s figure had reached beyond his range of sight, crossing the distance of 10,000 miles in an instant.

“Damn! Is he really this fast?”

Luo Quan’s eyes twirled mischievously, he chuckled and immediately used his movement technique to approach Puppet Mountain.

Just as Luo Quan received the news, the warriors on the first floor, upon discovering almost all puppets were slain, were heading to Puppet Mountain, hoping to take a share from the Puppet King!

Furthermore, once the Puppet King is killed, the large number of warriors congregated at Puppet Mountain will undoubtedly start battling one another instantly, leading to a fierce showdown.

Lin Bai moved extremely fast, seeing many warriors flying through the air in the same direction as him.

“So many warriors heading towards Puppet Mountain?”

Lin Bai’s expression darkened.

Fifteen minutes later, a gigantic mountain appeared in front of Lin Bai, and he noticed that all the warriors had stopped in the dense forest surrounding the mountain and were waiting there.

“Is that mountain Puppet Mountain?”

Lin Bai stopped as well, gazing at the barren mountain.

Then, Lin Bai used his movement technique to swiftly advance through the forest, searching for the warriors of the Ji Family.

“Found them.”

Lin Bai searched through the dense forest for over an hour and finally saw more than twenty warriors standing on the branches of a sky-reaching tree.

Among these warriors were people Lin Bai recognized: Ji Qingqing, Ji Yanglin, Yun Yihe, Zhaohai Lan, and others.

Lin Bai flew and landed on the branch.

“Who goes there?”

Suddenly, as Lin Bai approached, a young man in luxurious attire on the branch glared in the direction Lin Bai came from and coldly shouted.

The young man in luxurious attire was not a warrior of the Tai Ling Domain, and Lin Bai did not know him.

Lin Bai landed on the branch and faintly called out, “Ji Qingqing.”

Lin Bai saw Ji Qingqing, noticing her pretty face was somewhat pale, her expression fatigued, and her clothes with many bloodstains not yet dried, evidencing they had faced conflict before.

“Brother Lin!”

“Brother Lin!”

Yun Yihe and Zhaohai Lan were thrilled upon Lin Bai’s arrival and immediately shouted with joy.

Ji Qingqing too showed a hint of happiness, saying at once, “Brother Yue Rong, don’t act rashly, he’s our friend, his name is Lin Bai.”

The young man in luxurious attire was named Yue Rong.

Yue Rong chuckled lightly, “Oh, you’re Lin Bai?”

“Ji Qingqing, I advise you to keep a distance from him. This place near Puppet Mountain is crowded with warriors from the Vast Territory of the East Continent.”

“Lin Bai previously suppressed more than two thousand Tianjiao in Zhexian City, they must harbor resentment. If they come seeking revenge, you might be implicated.”

Yue Rong said coldly.

Upon hearing Yue Rong’s words, the exhilaration on Zhao Hai Lan and Yun Yihe’s faces vanished, replaced by unprecedented pallor.

Yue Rong was right, how could those suppressed by Lin Bai let it go?

Now, Puppet Mountain is the site of the final puppet battle on the first floor. If they find Lin Bai, they might collectively attack, jeopardizing Lin Bai’s survival!

Lin Bai looked at Yue Rong and said coldly, “Who are you?”

Yue Rong’s facial expression gleamed with pride, “I am Yue Rong, ranked 105th in the East Continent Heroes Record.”

Ji Qingqing approached Lin Bai and whispered, “He is Yue Rong, a warrior we met here from the Nine Seas Area, also a low-level territory. After meeting him, we thought of acting together for mutual support.”

Lin Bai nodded slightly, asking, “How many tribute items do you still need?”

Ji Qingqing furrowed her brows, saying, “This floor is full of evildoers, many puppets we couldn’t compete for. After several hours, I’ve only collected over 300 tribute items.”

“So few?” Lin Bai frowned.

Ji Qingqing said, “That’s why we plan to make one last attempt here, hoping to obtain some tribute items from the Puppet King, going to the second floor would be best.”

Lin Bai nodded slightly, “Entering the second floor would mean becoming outer sect disciples of the East Continent Academy, which is best!”

Yue Rong, seeing Lin Bai and Ji Qingqing whispering together, suddenly showed a somewhat hostile expression and said coldly, “Ji Qingqing, didn’t you hear what I said? Don’t get too close to him, or if discovered by others later, not only will your Tai Ling Domain be vanquished, our Nine Seas Area will also suffer!”

Ji Qingqing knew that Lin Bai had previously angered many strong ones in Zhexian City, now being with Lin Bai was an obvious path to ruin.

Ji Qingqing looked at Lin Bai, saying, “Thank you for coming to find us, but Yue Rong is right, you’d better keep your distance so as not to implicate us.”

Lin Bai heard Ji Qingqing’s words, feeling a deep bitterness. He already possessed 3,000 Red Pearl Tribute items, capable of leaving the first floor for the second.

But for a promise once made within the Tai Ling Domain to Di Hong, Lin Bai braved flying across the islands of the first floor, traveling miles to find Ji Qingqing, only to hear her say, “Don’t implicate us!”

The melancholy of it was known only to Lin Bai himself!

Lin Bai self-deprecatingly laughed, “Alright, I won’t implicate you!”

After speaking, Lin Bai turned and left the large tree occupied by warriors from the Tai Ling Domain and the Nine Seas Area.

Yue Rong watched Lin Bai leave, showing a mocking look in his eyes, saying, “Hmph, a warrior at the eighth level of the Yangshen Realm daring to make enemies of so many, just wait, once those warriors find out about his presence, they’ll surely tear him apart!”

Yue Rong coldly laughed, “Hope he dies soon and doesn’t implicate us!”
