Chapter 3066: Chapter 3086: He’s such a cunning person, and he just died like that?

Baili Zhan stood with his hands behind his back, a sneer in his eyes.

"You think just because you’ve captured him, I have no means of dealing with you?"

As Baili Zhan spoke, Lin Chen suddenly felt as if his body had sunk into a mud pit, completely unable to move an inch.

Baili Zhan did not kill Lin Chen instantly, he needed to keep Lin Chen alive to interrogate him for more information.

Lin Chen appeared to be caught off guard and was directly controlled.

Despair painted Lin Chen’s face, "Quasi-Saint, truly formidable! You’re ruthless, but don’t even dream of getting any information about others from me!"

Baili Zhan said coldly, "Don’t worry, you will talk, and when that time comes, you’ll be begging me to listen..."

Lin Chen interrupted Baili Zhan, "If you’re so awesome, can you bring back to life all those people from Baili Town that I’ve killed?"

The look on Baili Zhan’s face suddenly turned icy, his gaze sharp as a blade. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Lin Chen’s body suddenly explode into a dense blood fog.

Before his body burst apart, two words floated in midair from Lin Chen’s last breath.

"Idiot!"

Baili Zhan’s face changed dramatically, his eyebrows tightly furrowed.

Had Lin Chen really just self-destructed?

Had the self-destruction been too simple?

Just a cloud of blood fog?

Without even a fierce blast?

Was it because he was controlled by me, and didn’t have the power to do so, that he resorted to the simplest method?

Did he make such a decisive death because he feared revealing the whereabouts of others?

With a gesture from Baili Zhan, the unconscious Baili Mei flew over to him and landed in his hands. frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

He pointed a finger at Baili Mei’s forehead, and the unconscious Baili Mei suddenly jolted awake, opening her eyes.

"Ancestral Master!"

Baili Mei’s expression turned from joy to horror the next second as she twisted in agony and screamed aloud, "Ah..."

Baili Zhan’s brow furrowed as his Divine Sense swept over Baili Mei’s entire body, his gaze growing more solemn.

Baili Mei’s body was almost completely destroyed, including her Sea of Knowledge, which was severely damaged, nearly rendering her a cripple.

When I say nearly, it’s because there’s still a chance to save her, but it will require a tremendous amount of energy and time. Otherwise, she’s as good as done.

How ruthless this kid is, first crippling Baili Mei like this. He probably considered that if something went wrong, Baili Mei could stall my pursuit. Too bad he didn’t anticipate my swift arrival, leading to his capture.

He asked, "Where are the rest of them?"

Baili Mei looked confused, "I don’t know. They knocked me out just as they were about to retreat. But Lin Chen had a banner, and all those Demonic Beasts were living inside it. I saw him use it on the battlefield earlier."

Baili Zhan’s brow furrowed again, as his Divine Sense scanned the surroundings, but no banner was to be found.

Not to mention magical treasures, not even a single Spatial Ring could be seen.

This made Baili Zhan suspect that Lin Chen guessed there might be danger later on, so he had the others withdraw, leaving behind nothing, taking only Baili Mei with him.

If he managed to escape successfully, he would meet the others at the predetermined meeting point. If he didn’t escape, then he would attract the pursuers’ attention, ensuring the safety of the others on a different route.

Was this guy prepared to die?

No wonder he died so decisively!

Isn’t he the team leader, taking the lead for his soldiers?

Baili Zhan had no solution for a moment. He had been in pursuit for thousands, maybe tens of thousands of miles, and now the idea of tracking down the whereabouts of the others seemed unrealistic.

Even though Baili Zhan was a Quasi-Saint, he was helpless and said gravely, "Let’s return first. I’ll help you stop the bleeding."

Baili Mei couldn’t help but ask, "Who was escaping with me?"

Baili Mei was smart, and from the current situation, he immediately realized that he had been used as bait.

No wonder they caught me first, then knocked me out and carried me away—isn’t that just in case?

Baili Zhan answered, "Lin Chen."

Baili Mei widened his eyes in disbelief, "Just him? Where are his people?"

"Just him."

Baili Zhan glanced at Baili Mei, "To avoid being caught by me, he self-destructed. Did you know him?"

Baili Mei’s face registered disbelief; from what he knew, Lin Chen was ruthless and cunning. How could he have died so easily?

He was the leader of over a thousand people. How could he personally act as the decoy?

His subordinates wouldn’t agree, would they?

Baili Zhan thought for a moment and casually cast a spell in midair. The previous scene instantly appeared on the Water Mirror.

"Is this him?"

Baili Mei was baffled, "It’s him, but how could he personally take me to escape? It doesn’t make sense..."

Baili Zhan casually answered, "A good commander leads from the front. Perhaps he believed he could escape, but he just didn’t anticipate my quick arrival."

Baili Mei suddenly remembered something, "Ancestral Master, wasn’t it your turn to guard Demon Saint Valley? By leaving, won’t that cause issues?"

Baili Zhan answered, unbothered, "The Demon Saint Valley has its prohibitions; it’s not like just anyone can enter as they please. What could happen? Having people on guard duty is entirely superfluous..."
