The director of the divine hall lay on the ground, unexpectedly, the strange mask had fallen on his chest, at this moment it had enlarged significantly, becoming something akin to a shield, blackened from gunfire, with a vaguely eerie expression that seemed both smiling and crying.
This was the first time the director revealed his true face in front of others, a very youthful face, pale in color, and with the blood streaming between his mouth and nose, it appeared even less normal. The most striking feature was his eyes, which had pupils of almost equal size!
He quickly sat up, the mask at his chest fell aside, he grabbed it and put it back on his face, and the mask instantly returned to an appropriate size.
However, in the moment that his double-pupiled eyes were uncovered, the director's gaze had a hint of blood-red color.
The Grand President's body fell to the ground, his golden robe had completely lost its luster, revealing a large hole, from which large amounts of blood flowed out.
The entire person seemed to have no visible breath, looking as if he was about to die.
Suddenly, the Grand President's body began to become ethereal, as if the person who had been here was not his true self, but a remarkably realistic image created by a computer.
After flickering twice, the Grand President's body gradually disappeared. Before vanishing, he sat up and revealed an eerie smile at Ye Zhongming.
"See you next time, Ye Zhongming."
After saying this, the Grand President completely disappeared from the spot, leaving both Ye Zhongming and the Grand President feeling somewhat incredulous.
Ye Zhongming believed that people like the Grand President and the director must have some final means of survival, such as his second life or elemental spirits. But the Grand President's method seemed bizarre; could it be that he was teleported to a safe place?
Although he couldn't see, he could clearly feel it.
Along with the Grand President, the three-headed white tiger and… the Everlasting Water and Mountain Realm also vanished.
The director stood up, and the heavenly language demon vine appeared in his hand.
A pair of ice birds with somewhat disheveled feathers flew above Ye Zhongming's head, glaring fiercely at the only remaining opponent in front of them.
"To gain vision through battle beasts... I didn't expect your connection with battle beasts to have reached such a level, impressive," the director said, casting a glance at the two ice birds, a touch of curiosity and envy in his eyes beneath the mask. His main occupation was research, so he could naturally tell that these two ice birds were special. Two seventh-level creatures facing off against one eighth-level creature without falling behind was something that ordinary battle beasts could not achieve. It should be noted that the three-headed white tiger was no ordinary eighth-level life.
"I discovered it a bit late," Ye Zhongming said softly, maintaining a subtle balance between the two.
"In fact, I know that today is the best opportunity to kill you," the director paused, his voice carrying a youthful tone that matched his age.
"I can hardly imagine what kind of power could kill you when the earth yellow pill, Yangos, and Red Hair, even the red dress guard, are by your side."
"At the very least, the divine hall and I cannot do it."
Ye Zhongming closed his eyes and tilted his head. Upon hearing the director's words, he suddenly smiled.
"Perhaps today is the best opportunity to kill me, but what I don't understand is, why did you give up just now?"
If the Grand President of the zero commerce association were here, he would definitely be shocked, for Ye Zhongming's implication was that the director of the divine hall did not actually want to kill him!
The King of Cloud Summit had killed several top experts of the divine hall! Saying that he had completely destroyed the core of the divine hall would not be an exaggeration.
The director pondered for a moment but did not explain. Instead, he looked at the sky above the forest.
