Chapter 701: Chapter 328 Ignite_2

Li Yelai was surprised and then asked, “Are you investigating Ye Han?”

“You told me to take action against Ye Han, didn’t you?” Little Mad King looked at Li Yelai strangely, “I teach you in the mornings, and then I come to surveil him in the afternoons. I thought you knew.”

“How could I know about that? That’s a personal thought, I never considered dragging the officials into this,” Li Yelai paused, “Is that why, at last night’s Jing Family banquet, you went to challenge the Snow Mountain Blind Hero?”

Li Yelai had guessed this much, but he hadn’t expected Little Mad King to go out of his way to investigate Ye Han and the others in the pouring rain.

“At last night’s Jing Family banquet, neither you nor Ye Han were there,” Little Mad King nodded, “but I speculated, if you continued to deal with Ye Han, then the Snow Mountain Blind Hero would inevitably be an obstacle. He has an indissoluble bond with Ye Han, resembling both a mentor and a friend. Therefore, I sparred with him to understand his abilities and strength somewhat.”

This made Li Yelai feel somewhat guilty, “I’m sorry, Ye Han’s intuition was strong and didn’t attend the banquet, so I didn’t go either.”

“No worries,” Little Mad King said, “That Snow Mountain Blind Hero has impressive skills; his swordsmanship is comparable to Feixue. But his vision is nearly gone, which weakens his combat power.”

“He is the same as you, a Spiritual Ability User of the Wanxiang Path. His abilities include Mimic Blade Dragon Scale, Frost Dragon Breath, and Molten Dragon Tail. It seems his Mythical Mimic is the Great Phoenix. This makes his speed extremely fast, and even I struggle to keep a distance.”

“He seems to have a trump card, but because we were only sparring, we stopped at just touching, so I couldn’t force his trump card out.”

“Wanxiang Path, huh? Thanks,” Li Yelai turned the steering wheel, driving down the ramp.

The curse of the Blind Hero is his vision.

With each use of his abilities, his vision worsened.

Although his sword skills and combat power are extraordinary, his sight still impacts him.

Until one operation when he almost completely lost his sight.

Trapped by enemies amidst the mountains and rivers.

Eventually, he was rescued by Ye Han, who also helped him suppress his curse; from then on, he formed a close relationship with Ye Han.

If he wished to kill Ye Han, the Snow Mountain Blind Hero would inevitably intervene.

Moreover, if he stayed with Ye Han, who suppressed his curse, the Blind Hero’s combat strength would even be stronger.

Naturally, the same was true for Ye Han’s other companions.

“So, when you deal with Ye Han, I’ll hold off the Snow Mountain Blind Hero,” Little Mad King said.

“This mission, it’s not good for officials to intervene,” Li Yelai stated.

“I know. If I make a move, I’ll hide my identity. Otherwise, you’ll also need to use the Church’s power to stall the Blind Hero,” Little Mad King said, “If those two join forces, you will undoubtedly lose. Although you are a Champion Agent, you are only a Fifth Sense. You can defeat a Sixth Sense from a lower rank, but not two Sixth Sense masters simultaneously. Don’t be too proud, my teammate.”

Li Yelai nodded; he was aware of this. Facing a Sixth Sense put a lot of pressure on him; he was not so arrogant as to face two Sixth Senses at the same time.

“Also, regarding Ye Han…” Little Mad King seemed to think of something unpleasant, furrowing his attractive eyebrows, “His talent is very high, his Spiritual Energy grows quickly. After sparring with other Spiritual Ability Users, he seems to have gained insights. He’s also very sensitive…”

“I had planned to approach and investigate, but within a hundred meters, he noticed me. His gaze turned in my direction,” Little Mad King said gravely, “This was the first time a peer at the same level had detected me in advance. So, I could only distance myself and turn to investigating the people around him.”

Little Mad King’s ability to conceal himself is second to none.

Even other Sixth Sense Chaos Chosen are not on par with Little Mad King. He can be said to have the strongest concealment ability among his peers, yet Ye Han detected him in advance.

Such a strong intuition generally nullifies assassination attempts.

“Secondly, his networking is very solid. In just a few days, he’s already made contact with several families, including the Jing Family,” Little Mad King continued, “If you plan to deal with him, you must consider whether these families might intervene.”

The ability to suppress curses is indeed very useful; those families probably noticed this too.

“Lastly, about his lifestyle…” Little Mad King frowned, “It’s quite depraved. I found out he met with a female member of a family once and had a private meeting immediately.”

Little Mad King doesn’t care much about affairs between men and women, but even she thought it was over the top…

Li Yelai, however, didn’t want to know.

“That’s enough, my teammate. Ye Han is too weird; there’s no need to investigate further,” Li Yelai said, “From my perspective, it’s best not to have any contact.”

Little Mad King slightly nodded, since Li Yelai had said so much, she wouldn’t ask further.

“Also, thank you,” Li Yelai was truly grateful; he hadn’t asked Little Mad King to take action, yet Little Mad King had helped him a lot.

“No problem, you’ve helped me before.”

Afterward, Li Yelai drove the car near the headquarters of the bureau.

Before Li Yelai could park, Little Mad King opened the car window and slid out like a water snake.

He disappeared into the rainy night in an instant.

“Why not use the door?” Li Yelai muttered, closing the window.

The car looped back onto the ring road, continuing through the rainy night. The Ranger Coin kept spinning, contacting nearby possible Wilderness Rangers.

Li Yelai looped around for four hours, almost reaching dawn.

Looking at the fuel gauge, which was only a quarter full, Li Yelai had to head back.

Giant City was too big, and with the coin’s range being only five kilometers, it was very likely to miss something.

This was a time-consuming task,

however, just as Li Yelai entered from South City New District to East City New District.

It happened right at the stroke of midnight.

The spinning coin suddenly emitted a low and hoarse voice.

“Kindle bearers of the fire of hope, please head to Lava Mine City, enter Divine Treasure Immortal Palace.”

The voice was ancient and ethereal, yet contained a certain power, resonating in Li Yelai’s mind.

This left Li Yelai extremely surprised; he had contacted Wilderness Rangers using the coin before but had never experienced such a phenomenon.

Moreover, it seemed to be a broadcast?

Though stunned, Li Yelai was quick to react, pulling the car over to the side of the road. He tried to ask, “Who are you?”

But the coin did not respond to his question, and instead continued, “The Green Fire has already been ignited… That green arrow will ultimately tear through the night, bringing the dawn of hope!”

Afterward, the coin fell silent, no more sounds emanating from it.

Li Yelai was extremely astonished; the Green Fire had been ignited?

But the Immortal Palace had not even been opened yet.

Could it be that there were already issues inside the Immortal Palace?

Li Yelai frowned, puzzled.

The Green Fire should represent the power or blessing of the Fifth God, which he had the fortune to witness once.

The powers of the five Chaos Gods all have different colors.

The Blood God is the bloody red of slaughter, Eternal Life is a rich dark green, Jile is a flirtatious purple-pink, Deceit Dao is a calm deep blue.

The Fifth God, however, is a dazzling Green Fire.

If the Green Fire in the palace has been lit, does that mean the power of the Fifth God has entered the Immortal Palace first?

That shouldn’t be right. How did it get in there? Did it take a back door?

As Li Yelai pondered, he passed this message to Yin Fire. He had to inform the authorities first.

The Wilderness Rangers might be taking action this time! And it’s related to the Immortal Palace!

Yin Fire also quickly sent a message.

“Other Border Cities have also reported sightings of several suspected Wilderness Rangers.”

“Several? So quickly?” Li Yelai asked, “I just received the message. Are they using instant teleportation? No, even with teleportation, Giant City shouldn’t have received the message so quickly, right?”

“That means the messages you received are not synchronized,” Yin Fire said. “They are farther from the Immortal Palace and received the news earlier. You, being closer to the Immortal Palace, received it later. This allows all of you to arrive at the Immortal Palace simultaneously.”
