"Is this it?"
Sequence One dragged a chair over and sat down next to Lin Haifeng. There was no particular intention behind his words; he just wanted to make some small talk.
Lin Haifeng first glanced at the corpse of Yang Pengguang on the ground and sighed, shaking his head. "It's over, but it's a pity to lose such a strong warrior. If he could have been of use to me..."
Sequence One curled his lips. To most people, Yang Pengguang was a powerful figure, but to Sequence One, dealing with Yang Pengguang was merely a matter of two words.
Lin Haifeng relaxed his body slightly, took out a bottle of stamina recovery potion from his Spatial Ring, and drank it down.
It was evident that Lin Haifeng's earlier skill had consumed quite a bit of energy.
He took out some tea leaves again, and his hands moved quickly. Before long, a pot of steaming hot tea was ready.
After pouring a cup for each person present, Lin Haifeng looked at Fang Bai, who had a calm expression, and spoke up.
"The Cult of the Demon Worshippers can't stir up any more trouble. It's time to come back."
Fang Bai hesitated for a moment but slowly nodded.
Seeing Fang Bai's reaction, Lin Haifeng turned to Sequence One and asked, "Have you found out where Sequence Two and Sequence Three are trapped?"
"I have. They are in a large treasure land that is very obscure, but not particularly dangerous."
Sequence One nodded and put his teacup down on the table, speaking seriously. "I wanted to talk to you about this. There are about two months left until the demonic disaster officially breaks out."
"That's not to be feared."
Lin Haifeng was very confident.
"Right now, there are quite a few strong warriors in Huaxia. You, Wen Yu, Kuang Liu, Qin Min, and Fang Bai, are five of the top ten Sequenced warriors. There are also over a dozen from the top hundred. If we have this kind of strength and still can’t hold up against the first wave of the demonic disaster, then the human race has no hope!"
With the deaths of Suzuki Masao, Andrei, and Yang Pengguang, Fang Bai, who was originally at Sequence Eleven, had already climbed to Sequence Eight. Meanwhile, Qin Min had just received news that his sequence number had risen by one.
Sequence One's expression was very serious.
"This is the troublesome part."
...
"We don’t know the significance of the sequence, but the sovereign's old adversary—the demonic clan knows."
"Sequence One's authority is different from the others, and combined with my identity, I can access a lot of information."
"When the demonic disaster strikes, the demonic clan will launch a human race hunting plan targeting the top ten Sequenced warriors! Each demonic entity deployed will be among the elite. And the numbers will be quite considerable!"
"Just think about it. If all five of the top ten Sequenced warriors gather in Beijing to battle demonic entities of equal or greater strength, what kind of destruction would it bring to the Beijing gathering place?"
Hearing Sequence One's words, Lin Haifeng fell silent.
The outcome was easy to envision. With Kuang Liu's strength, battling an equally strong adversary would definitely result in the destruction of half a city.
Even if the defense of the Beijing gathering place was impressive, a great number of super strong warriors clashing would be enough to cause significant damage.
After pondering for a long time, Lin Haifeng spoke, "The Beijing gathering place can provide some support for you."
Sequence One shook his head.
"I don’t need it. After a while, I will be heading to Siberia to engage in a battle with the demonic clan hunting group. Qin Min doesn’t need it either; he has his own place. Let me make a suggestion."
"Fang Bai should stay in the Beijing gathering place, but Wen Yu and Kuang Liu absolutely cannot return. The hunters from Sequence Two and Sequence Three are not on the same level as Fang Bai, and the Beijing gathering place won't be able to withstand it."
"So..."
Sequence One gave Lin Haifeng an enigmatic smile.
"I have already used my authority to leave behind some small measures. I estimate that the two of them won’t be able to return for a while."
