"Ye Zhongming has teleportation ability!"
"The Blue Serpent Sacred Seat is injured! The Blue Serpent Sacred Seat is counterattacking!"
"Ye Zhongming is retreating, not good, he has attacked Bai Yin!"
"Bai Yin is injured! Ye Zhongming is also injured!"
The one with the Eye of the Earth ability, Mei Rang, continuously reported the battle situation to the Grand President and the director of the divine hall. The expressions in the eyes of these two big shots changed with the flow of the battle.
If they could kill Ye Zhongming like this, they would be very pleased. They didn't care about the fame of personally killing the King of Cloud Summit; all they wanted was to remove the obstacles on their path more safely and to gain more benefits.
However, the situation on the battlefield was not as smooth as they expected.
"A Xiu is estimated to arrive at the battlefield in one minute. With six eight-star evolvers, we can definitely kill Ye Zhongming."
The director said something, then suddenly turned to the Grand President beside him and said, "How about we let A Xiu have the final opportunity to kill Ye Zhongming?"
The Grand President smiled and looked at the director, "My people also want that fame, Sister Bo, what do you think?"
"She is not suitable to take over the Zero Commerce Association."
"So you also received an admission ticket."
"That's not surprising."
The two exchanged a few sentences that Mei Rang didn't understand at all, and then they both fell silent for a moment.
The director and the Grand President both realized one thing: they were looking for someone who was utterly loyal to them to prepare to take over their current positions. If they could personally kill Ye Zhongming, it would undoubtedly bring great prestige to the successor, increasing their bargaining chips at the time of succession.
Their all-out effort to encircle Ye Zhongming had complex underlying reasons, and everyone had their own calculations, but in this regard, the Grand President and the director were surprisingly aligned.
"How about this, I will give you..."
The director was halfway through promising benefits to persuade the Grand President to give up competing with A Xiu when Mei Rang interrupted.
"Bai Yin... seems to have died."
Mei Rang's voice trembled a little.
There was no helping it; she was just a seven-star evolver. Although Bai Yin was not in her faction, he had previously displayed extremely high combat power when slaughtering ninth-level life. In her opinion, besides a few big shots, he was the strongest.
In this situation, if he was killed, how formidable must this King of Cloud Summit be?
"What happened?!"
For the first time, the director's voice changed.
…………………………………………
Ye Zhongming had been injured, poisoned, and exhausted, but he had not lost control of his body. However, at the moment he took off into the air, he truly felt that everything except his head was no longer under his control.
Under other circumstances, Ye Zhongming would not have made the choice he just did. Unlike the Grand President and the director of the divine hall, who would willingly sacrifice their subordinates to wear down their opponents, he was very much aware of how to seek profit and avoid harm—he wouldn’t take risks unless absolutely necessary.
But just now was different; he had to take this risk.
Five eight-star evolvers were surrounding him, and none were ordinary evolvers. Each one was elite-level, and their skills, professions, and even battle beasts were well-coordinated.
Facing five with one, the pressure was immense.
This feeling only arose when he was facing an equal number of core members among his subordinates.
Of course, if those five were Red Hair, Xia Bai, Mo Ye, Liang Chuyin, and Xia Lei, he wouldn’t feel pressure; he would have to flee in panic.
He had exhausted his teleportation abilities and had to modify his target from killing the Blue Serpent Sacred Seat.
As for why he chose Bai Yin, who had not directly attacked but appeared difficult to deal with, it was because Ye Zhongming was wary of the electric net he had unleashed and the potential unknown abilities that might appear.
