Quick, too quick.
Cave Holder saw Xia Bai swing her blade but didnât see how it got between the two of them.
This feeling made his whole body tense up.
Being so close to death made Cave Holder feel unwell.
Just a cycle ago, he had felt this way once, and now here it came again. Even the strongest of people would fall into panic.
As for the future, if this happened often, one would either go insane or become numb.
The people from Cloud Summit were not surprised at all.
Who is Xia Bai? She has been with the boss since the start, and for all these years, as long as she is present, the position behind the boss will always belong to her.
The red dress guard she leads is recognized as an existence that can cross levels, truly the first battle team!
No matter the battlefield, as long as that black shadow holding a sickle floats into the sky, the momentum of Cloud Summit's opponents would weaken by three points.
If Ye Zhongming is the king in a deck of cards, then Xia Bai is the Ace, the first Ace.
Now, having escaped the tragic fate of Earth, Xia Bai not only has the full support of Cloud Summit and Ye Zhongming but has also caught the attention of the Old Dean of the Library Palace, becoming a closed-door disciple.
In many people's eyes, even if Xia Bai cannot gain the complete inheritance and wealth of the Library Palace in the future, she will still become a significant figure within it, perhaps even the next dean.
Is it strange for someone like her to have such strength?
Not at all. In fact, many people from Cloud Summit felt that this was still not Xia Bai using her full strength, and they were eager to see the different martial techniques of various races from her. Otherwise, Cave Holder would have died long ago.
The three peak experts also understood why Ye Zhongming had said those previous words, like Liang Chuyinâs ability for group attacks and Xia Bai's individual strength; indeed, her strength surpassed Cave Holder.
On the light barrier, Xia Bai retracted her sickle just as she heard a sentence that made her pause slightly.
âI concede.â
Cave Holder raised his hand, looking sincerely at Xia Bai, repeating once more, âI concede.â
Xia Bai squinted her eyes.
This isnât a martial arts competition; you canât just stop and say you concede!
âIn the upcoming cycle, I will follow your commands as long as you donât intentionally send me to my death. I will help you in battle, and all points will belong to you; I donât want any,â Cave Holder said.
His words made Xia Bai truly stop. She looked towards Liang Chuyin.
âI mean it. Even if I no longer hunt afterward, I shouldn't be eliminated. Youâve seen it; this oneâs strength is much higher than mine, and without my weapon, rebellion means death, so I wonât do it.â
This sentence was directed towards Liang Chuyin.
âYou... your character is collapsing,â the internet celebrity girl said, finally managing to say that.
Cave Holder used to give a serious, cold, and tsundere vibe, but now his willingness to surrender and become a dog was too much of a contrast.
âLife is the most important; whatâs a character?â Cave Holder chuckled as he lowered his head.
âAre you trying to delay until the time is up and then go back on your word?â Gao Yi suddenly chimed in, causing Cave Holderâs expression to change slightly.
âNo, absolutely not. There are so many people here; I want my life and my dignity,â Cave Holder swore, pointing at the sky.
Upon hearing this, many people in the flying vehicles started cursing the shameless Cave Holder.
Inside Cloud Summitâs flying vehicle, Yao Han Su was laughing so hard he almost fell off his chair.
âThis guy is really something. Now I just want to see how mad those little dwarfs are.â
Bi Yin and Huo Zhi were also amused, but what concerned them was not Cave Holderâs inconsistency but rather his current behavior.
They had lived for a long time and held high positions for a long time, having witnessed far too many unexpected things people would do to survive. In their eyes, Cave Holderâs current actions were nothing.
