Chapter 6741 6739-Burning Bridges
Fortunately, Lin Yi's Qi was almost fully recovered as well, and he easily broke through the swarm of mice and bees. He concealed his aura and hid in a giant tree.
When Lin Yi was done and wanted to look for the man with the grey hat again, he had already lost track of him. There was nothing in the range of his spirit sense, too. It was clear that Central's hiding methods were quite powerful!
He might be able to use his spirit sense to create a spatial ripple to find the man, but he didn't plan on doing that. It would consume too much energy, and there was no point even if he could find the man.
If he really wanted to find it, it would be easier and more pleasant to use the walkie-talkie.
After a short while, the sun devouring rats on the outer perimeter suddenly stopped advancing towards broken Cloud City. A small portion of them began to stand up and look around before hesitantly changing directions.
Slowly, more and more sun swallowing rats joined the ranks to change directions. After the main force at the front was slightly confused for a while, they also followed and ran back.
The demonic corpse bees in the sky did not panic at all. Their unity was even better, because resonance required a terrifying level of cooperation, so not a single demonic corpse bee would leave the group without permission.
After the sun-devouring rats left, the corpse demon bees had no intention of staying any longer. They followed the rat tide and left broken Cloud City.
"What's going on? The darkness magical beasts have retreated?"
In broken Cloud City, Xu Changxi stared blankly at the clear sky. He jumped up the city wall in a flash and looked at the distant rat tide and bees. Only then did he believe that everything was real!
"They really retreated! The darkness demon beast has run away!"
"We've won!"
"We've defended! Everyone is alive!"
Cheers sounded from the city walls. Even though the city's protective array had been repaired at the last moment, everyone in broken Cloud City was still under a lot of pressure. The sudden retreat of the darkness magical beasts made them feel like it was unreal.
"Don't be careless! Continue to guard your post!"
Xu Changxi suppressed the surprise in his heart and issued an order to continue to be vigilant. He then turned to li baidai and whispered,"Master Li, I'll go out and check the whereabouts of the darkness demonic beasts. I'll leave the matters in the city to you for the time being."
"City Lord, don't worry. I will do my best to ensure the stability of broken Cloud City!"
Li baidai was secretly happy. He needed such a chance to take control of the new Defender array."City Lord, those clones of lone wolf ..."
"Do as you see fit. First, you have to ensure the smooth operation of the defender array."
Xu Changxi continued to speak in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't leave behind any future trouble!"
It was basically no different from making it clear. Li Baiwei smiled and nodded.
Li baidai had a misunderstanding with Xu Changxi before, and he didn't forget to bring Xu Changxi along even if he wanted to deal with Lin Yi.
Once the new city protection array was controlled by li baidai, Xu Changxi's position as the city Lord of broken Cloud City would probably be over. Poor Xu Changxi still didn't know that he had unintentionally offended li baidai, and he was still thinking about how to take revenge.
After the two finished their discussion, Xu Changxi left the city and chased after the bees. He didn't care about the retreating Dark Demon beasts, he just wanted to find Lin Yi!
All of Lin Yi's clones were in broken Cloud City, which meant that the main body was fine. Xu Changxi was very disappointed.
Xu Changxi would be very happy if Lin Yi died outside the city!
But since Lin Yi didn't die, Xu Changxi had to come to find him personally.
The new city protection formation was completed, and Lin Yi would have to control it when he returned, while Xu Changxi would be in a passive position.
Lin Yi was strong, but it was better for Xu Changxi to be outside the city than to have the protection of the formation.
Most importantly, Xu Changxi thought that Lin Yi was an arrow at the end of its flight. It was a miracle for him to last so long in the rat tide and bees. It would be unbelievable if he could still maintain his peak condition!
Lin Yi didn't know what Xu Changxi was planning. In fact, he was almost back to his peak condition. The spiritual Qi in the Jade space was pure and abundant, and the speed at which it was converted into Qi was quite fast. He might not be able to keep up with the consumption in battle, but in a stationary state, replenishing Qi was as easy as snapping his fingers.
Lin Yi guessed that the man in the hat was in that direction as he watched the rats and bees leave the city. He needed to think about whether he should go back to the city to get the Jade card and the map or follow the man in the hat and figure out what was the connection between central and the dark Demon beasts.
But Lin Yi got his answer very quickly. Xu Changxi chased the rat tide and the bees out of Cloud Break city, helping Lin Yi make a choice.
The man with the grey bamboo hat wasn't easy to find, but Xu Changxi was right in front of him. What was there to hesitate about?
"City Lord, where are you planning to go?"
Lin Yi revealed himself and smiled at Xu Changxi,"The darkness magical beasts have retreated. Does the city Lord want to track them down?"
Xu Changxi was willing to risk his life for broken Cloud City, and Lin Yi respected him. That was why he was willing to meet him.
If he knew that Xu Changxi wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't be so polite. He would've hidden in the dark and launched a sneak attack.
"Master lone wolf! It's good that you're fine!"
Xu Changxi was a little surprised, but he immediately showed a warm smile."I came out to look for your tracks. For our broken Cloud City, master is willing to take risks alone. We are all very worried about master's safety!"
"Thanks to everyone's blessings, I was lucky enough to complete my mission."
Lin Yi waved his hand with a smile, not thinking too much about it. They'd all fought side by side, going through life and death together-there was a bond between them."The rat tide and the bees have temporarily retreated. They shouldn't be coming back in a short time. City Lord, you can rest assured."
"It's all thanks to master lone wolf. Without you, broken Cloud City would be in danger!"
Xu Changxi smiled as he approached Lin Yi,"Right, let's talk about the thing that I mentioned earlier."
Lin Yi's eyebrows twitched a little, a playful look in his eyes.
The Jade and the map were the two things he cared about the most, and if Xu Changxi really wanted to talk, Lin Yi would welcome him.
Unfortunately, the moment Xu Changxi got close, the Jade space immediately sent out a warning!
This idiot actually harbored ill intentions and wanted to burn the bridge after crossing the river!
"How does the city Lord want to negotiate?"
Lin Yi smiled as if nothing had happened. The Qi in his body was already circulating rapidly, and his martial skill was ready to be used.
"This matter is of great importance, we must be careful!"
Xu Changxi lowered his voice and tried to attract Lin Yi's attention with his words. His feet were getting closer and closer, and he was already in Lin Yi's attack range!
