Chapter 96 - 96: Shi Yuan’s Wrath
White Lotus Sect.
With heavy steps, Chen Qi arrived at the White Lotus Sect, his body covered in severe injuries.
He finally entered the main hall of the White Lotus Sect.
At this moment, Shi Yuan sat on the throne in the hall, his face filled with complacence. He thought that as long as he obtained the Purgatory Fruits and refined them into pills, he would see how Annan Base City could resist him.
As for Ye Li’s Dragon-Slaying Blade, wasn’t it just a matter of taking it from him?
However, when Shi Yuan saw Chen Qi, who was covered in injuries, walking into the hall, he could no longer smile.
“What happened?” Bai Shan quickly asked.
Chen Qi knelt on the ground and cried.
“Master, brothers are in dire straits!”
Bai Shan’s temples bulged with veins, and he demanded, “Tell me, what happened?”
Immediately, Chen Qi told Bai Shan everything that had happened.
As Shi Yuan and Bai Shan listened to his account, it was like a bolt from the blue.
“What did you say?” Shi Yuan’s eyes turned red, and flames of fury erupted from his head.
Chen Qi wiped away his tears and said, “Ye Li is too arrogant. Master, you must avenge us!”
He thought that fortunately, he had returned with so many injuries. Otherwise, he might have lost his life.
Shi Yuan was so angry that he clenched his teeth tightly, “Ye Li! Ye Li!”
He had planted the Purgatory Fruits as soon as he arrived at the White Lotus Sect, waiting for today. As long as he refined them into pills, Annan Base City would be his.
Even more importantly, he could take the Dragon-Slaying Blade from Ye Li. With the blade in hand, he would have an unparalleled inheritance in the Dark Temple.
But all of this had been ruined by Ye Li.
“Why do I keep you? Why do I keep you?”
Shi Yuan’s eyes turned red, and he was ready to act against Chen Qi.
Terrified, Chen Qi crawled on the ground in panic.
“Master, save me, save me!” Chen Qi pleaded desperately.
Seeing Chen Qi’s injuries, Bai Shan knew that he must have narrowly escaped death to come back and deliver the message.
“Wait! Mr. Shi, the most important thing now is to find Ye Li and take back the Purgatory Fruits,” Bai Shan said to Shi Yuan.
Shi Yuan was even more furious, “How could I not know? But we have no idea where Ye Li is right now.”
“Mr. Shi, it seems that Ye Li went to Dongcheng,” Chen Qi said in a low voice.
“Are you sure?” Shi Yuan stared coldly at Chen Qi.
“I swear, every word I said is true. If I’m lying, let thunder strike me!” Chen Qi quickly responded.
Hearing this, Shi Yuan squinted his eyes.
If Ye Li was really in Dongcheng, then he was seeking death!
By that time, he could not only reclaim the Purgatory Fruits but also the Dragon-Slaying Blade. It would save him a lot of trouble.
“We are going to Dongcheng immediately!” Shi Yuan said coldly.
As he finished speaking, Shi Yuan had disappeared from the main hall of the White Lotus Sect.
“Gold, Silver, Copper and Iron, gather everyone and head to Dongcheng immediately!” White Lotus Sect’s Master Bai Shan shouted.
“Yes, Master!”
Gold, Silver, Copper and Iron were the four new elders of the White Lotus Sect, all third-tier Evolved Beings.
In an instant, thousands of people from the White Lotus Sect rushed towards Dongcheng!
Ye Li had just fallen asleep when he heard the commotion. He was a little annoyed, thinking, “I’ve finally fallen asleep after counting sheep for so long, and now you woke me up?”
He got up and looked out the window, only to find countless zombies wandering the streets.
“A zombie tide?” Ye Li murmured.
He noticed that these zombies were not only roaming the streets but also entering any building they could find..
