As for Zhao Yi, the person in question, he wasn't even a bit nervous. Not only did he refrain from discussing pros and cons, saying that letting it out could lead to a massacre and destruction, involving everyone in karma, he instead laughed aloud and nodded to Tan Wenbin:

"Hahaha, well then, I'll go ask him."

Mr. Zhao actually went and asked. He first pointed below himself, saying, "I have it."

Then he pointed below the other party, saying, "Yours, doesn't."

The hair on the opponent stood up entirely, the skin turned an intense burning red, and large areas of pus began to appear on the tattoos.

Opening its mouth, revealing broken fangs, a low growl emerged from the throat:

"Die, die, die!"

Liang Yan and Liang Li looked at Zhao Yi in confusion. They didn't understand why at this moment, Zhao Yi still chose to provoke the other party. Was he really planning to bear this fury himself?

Tan Wenbin clapped his hands and shouted: "Alright, everyone, take your positions."

Run Sheng, holding the Yellow River Shovel, stood in front of Zhao Yi.

Yin Meng took out the poison jar, standing diagonally behind Zhao Yi.

With the help of two children, Tan Wenbin moved to the position behind Zhao Yi.

Even Lin Shuyou, who disliked Zhao Yi the most, was now holding the Double Mace, voluntarily standing behind Run Sheng, which was diagonally in front of Zhao Yi.

After the positioning, Liang Yan and Liang Li didn't know where to stand, feeling more like outsiders.

Tan Wenbin shouted:

"Mr. Zhao, now, you're in command!"

This time, Zhao Yi's mouth curled up uncontrollably into a smile.

He always envied Li Zhiyuan's team setup, even his own team's development somewhat imitated it. Moreover, Li Zhiyuan was sometimes generous enough to allow him a chance to command after the team's strength was upgraded.

Things in others' hands often seemed more appealing, plus, they were indeed much better than his own. Otherwise, the one lying in the hospital earlier shouldn't have been Xu Ming but Lin Shuyou.

Zhao Yi: "Liang Yan, Liang Li stay back, wait for my command for coordination."

The two sisters took a deep breath, feeling frustrated, but they obediently moved to the side.

Next, Zhao Yi looked at Yin Meng: "Aren't you able to summon insects now?"

Yin Meng: "How do you know?"

Zhao Yi pointed at the Liang Sisters: "They secretly informed me." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

Yin Meng: "The previously reserved flesh has been used up. To summon insects, I need a flesh sacrifice."

Zhao Yi: "Come, Meng Meng, look over there..."

Yin Meng followed Zhao Yi's finger direction and saw those two huge meatballs on the ground.

Earlier, they had detached from the body of the wolf dog, so when vaporized into human form, they were retained in place.

Zhao Yi: "Meng Meng, do you think those two could be sacrificed?"

Yin Meng swallowed with difficulty, even though she felt little attachment to her ancestors, this matter still exceeded what she could accept.

Sitting behind, Tan Wenbin just thought Mr. Zhao truly lived up to his name, as no ordinary person could come up with such a move.

Sacrificing two dog's balls to Emperor Fengdu?

Yin Meng: "I..."

Zhao Yi: "You can try, right? You see that guy's body is covered in pus, if insects could be summoned to handle it, the effect will definitely be good."

Yin Meng: "But..."

Tan Wenbin spoke up: "Meng Meng, listen to Mr. Zhao, follow his instructions."

Even Tan Wenbin spoke, so Yin Meng had to nod: "Alright, I'll try."

At the same time, Yin Meng sensed the implied meaning in Tan Wenbin's words.

It was that every time she sacrificed and summoned insects, she would later offer a table of tribute to apologize to her ancestors, telling them directly while burning paper:

This was all the idea of Jiujiang Zhao Yi!

That's exactly what Tan Wenbin intended. Mr. Zhao only knew from the Liang Sisters that Yin Meng needed flesh to summon insects and didn't realize it was a direct offering to Emperor Fengdu.

To note, even Brother Xiao Yuan, no matter how he used the Great Emperor, always maintained the necessary etiquette on the surface, but once Mr. Zhao pulls off this stunt...

Tan Wenbin thought that someday when they couldn't delay any longer and had to go to Fengdu, they would certainly encounter Zhao Yi in the Ghost City.

...

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The continuous vibrations outside seeped into the black eggshell.

A fight broke out, but it was still ongoing.

The face was anxious.

This meant that the rabid dog, without memory and corrupt body, likely didn't have the capability to break through the young man's blockade.

Then, it had to remain here and wait for the young man to set up the array formation to resolve it bit by bit.

This was unacceptable to it, the utmost suffocating end.

Face: "A final chance for you."

Li Zhiyuan: "Speakerphone."

Face: "I can alter your memory."

Li Zhiyuan: "Since entering the array, you've tried many times on me. Isn't it my firm will that prevents you from acting?"

Back then, that dog seemed to have willingly accepted the implanted memories without resistance.

Face: "I can go down with you, destroy you."

The surrounding darkness began to boil.

Li Zhiyuan sensed wave-like consciousness frantically invading his brain, with such force that it was unstoppable.

The young man stopped the array formation, entering his consciousness.

Surreal and eerie, Li Zhiyuan stood in a familiar field, with incessant black rain falling from the sky.

Rainwater formed puddles around, displaying various scenes of past memories within.

They were being frantically modified.

Soon, the young man's cognition began to blur, this blurring would continue to expand.

Face: "You've forced my hand."

Li Zhiyuan did not shout or curse, he barely showed any anger.

The young man turned, heading home.

He left the field, walked up the dam, and entered the house, arriving on the second floor.

Brain fog was forming, the constant blurring of self-awareness gave him a dizzying feeling akin to being drunk.

Li Zhiyuan reached out and knocked on his room door.

An impatient voice came from inside:

"What?"

"Open the door, shelter from the rain."
