"My goodness!"
"I... damn."
"What, what, what is this?"
"Boss, you're getting further and further away from my idol."
"Boss, please accept my knees, or even two!"
"Boss, do you need any accessories for your legs?"
"Zhong Ming, you have surprised us too much."
"Dear, let me take a photo, no, let's take a group photo, I want to keep a memory."
"Zhong Ming, when do you think I can get a bottle of that potion?"
"Boss, I rely on you for this lifetime!"
Everyone was bustling around Ye Zhongming, but their eyes were all on that bottle of evolution potion.
Only a few were looking at Ye Zhongming, like Guangyao.
Was he not attracted by that bottle of potion? Of course not; he wasn't noble enough to regard 'money' as dirt.
However, facing the potion that would undoubtedly cause a bloodbath if it were put outside, Guangyao surprisingly had no impulse to claim it for himself, not even a hint of envy.
He simply looked at Ye Zhongming's face, thinking of all the things that happened after he joined Cloud Summit Villa, and many emotions surged in his heart.
If nothing had changed, he would still be an officer of a battle department in the resistance zone, and he would be proud to be part of the largest force in the national area.
But when the body of his lover gradually grew cold in his arms, Guangyao, both physically and mentally, detached himself from that system.
There were times in the dead of night when Guangyao felt lost about the future, unsure of where he was heading in Cloud Summit Villa.
Although everything here thrived, indicating development and progress, Guangyao still felt somewhat uneasy; after all, any large force at this stage was like that.
He once belonged to that resistance zone he now despised, and it was the same there.
He had thought about it carefully before, and a vague answer had formed in his heart, but when he saw Ye Zhongming take out this bottle of potion, the answer became completely clear.
Guangyao did not deny the excellence of the core members of Cloud Summit; to be honest, after getting to know them better, both in terms of character and strength, they were far superior to evolvers from other forces.
But these people were still not enough to support the backbone of Cloud Summit Villa.
The only one who could place this force at the peak was this man.
Guangyao had never seen anyone who could balance so many subordinates while still becoming a top-notch expert.
For example, the Nalan battle team that everyone discussed before; the two women took very good care of their subordinates, but the result was that their own evolution levels fell behind, almost leading to a situation where the main was weak and the subordinates strong. If not for Ye Zhongming being present, the outcome would have likely been tragic.
But Ye Zhongming was different; he maintained a great balance between himself and the organization he established, allowing both sides to progress together.
Although Guangyao was not the leader of the entire resistance zone, he controlled a complete and powerful battle department and often helped Wen Zhong manage the affairs of the large area, understanding just how difficult it is to balance these two aspects.
Ye Zhongming achieved what few could.
At this moment, Guangyao truly realized that Ye Zhongming was the spirit totem of Cloud Summit, officially becoming his spiritual leader.
Only someone like him could lead a group of similar strong individuals to survive and move forward in the apocalypse.
Ye Zhongming sensed something and looked over, their eyes meeting in a smile, harmonious in their mutual understanding.
The potion that everyone was observing was, of course, an eight-star evolution potion!
Why did Ye Zhongming selectively choose to take risks to enter, and why did he insist on obtaining the Soren Magic Box, even at the cost of conflict with the wasteland?
It was simply for this bottle of eight-star evolution potion.
When Ye Zhongming learned detailed information about the brightwater realm from that mysterious person, he decided to complete the evolution of an eight-star evolver there!
