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.

When Lin Yuan first started reading the Annal of Monster Information, he believed that it was a work of fiction. However, he eventually began verifying the legends recorded in the book. The Annal of Monster Information had brought Lin Yuan numerous substantial opportunities, so he started paying close attention to its content. He had almost memorized the entire book.

It was then that Lin Yuan saw another message from Bei Xu.

After reading the Thoughts Letter Paper, Lin Yuan frowned and immediately said, “Dazzling Silver, rush as quickly as you can!”

Next, Lin Yuan sent a reply to Bei Xu.
[Lin Yuan]: Bei Xu, I need you to hang on for a day and a half. No matter what you have to do, make sure to keep yourself alive! Once a day and a half pass, you will receive the Ethereal Jellyfish’s tentacle from the Astronomical Parliament, and I’ll be able to use that tentacle to appear right in front of you!

Lin Yuan had left Wen Yu in the Radiance Federation before he went to the Sand Island Continent, meaning that she was not by his side.

Hence, Lin Yuan could not use her sacred source lifeform’s Star Spirit Seat to deliver the Ethereal Jellyfish’s tentacle to Bei Xu. He would only be able to do it once he arrived back at the Radiance Federation!

Bei Xu was smart, so Lin Yuan believed he could hang on for a day and a half.

The person hunting Bei Xu was likely the one he had tried to gain information from. They probably wanted more than his wealth.

If that were the case, stalling for a day and a half should not be difficult. Bei Xu had the Blood Parasite Witch Fish, which had reached Suzerain/Myth after consuming his blood.

This was a secret weapon that Bei Xu had not yet revealed. Even if he was pushed to his last straw and unable to stall any longer, he could use brute strength to carve out a path of survival.

The thousands of Item-Storing Walnuts that Lin Yuan had planted in the marsh world had ripened, and the spatial energy they contained was enough for him to create a tunnel from the Radiance Federation to the Grotto Continent.

Bei Xu felt much more at ease after receiving Lin Yuan’s message. He came up with a plan to travel in circles around the wilderness with the blood zombies for the next day and a half.

Even if his pursuers caught him, they were unlikely to kill him if he refused to tell them what they wanted to know. When they started attacking him, he would be able to decide, based on their strength, whether to use the Blood Parasite Witch Fish.

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.
