Chapter 416 - 416: Heading to Corpse City
Ye Li looked at Xiao Yuzhu. “Let’s go to Corpse City.”
“But Mr. Ye, the Sky Blue Academy students are currently having a trial on the outskirts of Corpse City,” Xiao Yuzhu said, looking somewhat troubled.
Xiao Yuzhu had recently graduated from Sky Blue Academy and had the opportunity to go to Cloud Peak Academy, but she thought it was too far away and decided not to go.
“What does Sky Blue Academy having a trial on the outskirts of Corpse City have to do with us going to Corpse City?” Ye Li asked calmly.
Xiao Yuzhu was momentarily stunned and didn’t dare to continue.
“Mr. Ye, should we head to Corpse City now?” Xiao Yuzhu asked, looking at Ye Li.
“Yes.” Ye Li nodded.
After placing the Apocalypse Legion and Xiao Hei into the system space, Ye Li and Xiao Yuzhu set off toward Corpse City.
Corpse City was quite a distance away. If they had to walk there, it would take a considerable amount of time. Ye Li quickly grasped the direction to Corpse City, then grabbed Xiao Yuzhu’s hand, activating the Swift Steps
He was literally flying in the air.
Ye Li’s Swift Steps were now an SSS-ranked skill, making him incredibly fast. In no time at all, Ye Li and Xiao Yuzhu arrived at the outskirts of Corpse City.
Xiao Yuzhu was astounded by the breathtaking speed. She had always known that Ye Li was fast, but this was on a whole new level.
Ye Li ignored Xiao Yuzhu’s shocked expression. Anyone encountering such a phenomenon would undoubtedly be amazed.
Surveying Corpse City, it appeared similar to the ruined city in the Wilderness Zone. Currently, Ye Li and Xiao Yuzhu were in a forest outside the city.
As they were about to head into Corpse City, they heard several voices.
“Haha, Ironclad Boar, I’ve killed three of them.”
“I’ve also killed five Red Snakes.”
“It looks like there are two people ahead.”
Five or six Sky Blue Academy students seemed perplexed. Ye Li and Xiao Yuzhu weren’t wearing the academy uniform, which meant they were not students of Sky Blue Academy.
“Let’s go take a look.”
The students headed toward Ye Li and Xiao Yuzhu.
When they got closer, the students spotted Xiao Yuzhu and were a little stunned.
“Senior Sister Xiao, what are you doing here?”
During her time at the academy, Xiao Yuzhu had been the center of attention. It could be said that everyone in the academy knew her.
“I guess Senior Sister Xiao must be here to see Senior Lin Cheng,” a student said.
Lin Cheng was a member of the Lin family, one of the top three families. He was known as his family’s number one genius and had already graduated from Sky Blue Academy. However, he had chosen to stay behind to challenge the academy’s martial tower.
Since the establishment of the martial tower at Sky Blue Academy, no one had reached the top floor.
All students at the academy knew that Lin Cheng had feelings for Xiao Yuzhu. They were regarded as a match made in heaven, both hailing from prestigious families, which made countless students envious.
During this trip organized by Sky Blue Academy, Lin Cheng, of course, had to join.
Hearing all this, Ye Li understood why Xiao Yuzhu had been reluctant to come to Corpse City. But he didn’t care about these matters. Right now, he was focused on upgrading Xiao Hei to the first-tier realm and seeing if it would evolve.
Xiao Yuzhu was about to speak, but one of the students said, “Sister Xiao, 1’11 go tell Senior Lin Cheng right away that you’re here.”
Then the student walked away..
