Era of Disaster

Chapter 115: To Meet Again

Success!

A word rose from the bottom of his heart. From this moment onward, he had truly captured the hearts of this bunch of subordinates. Yu Han wanted to change. He clearly knew that heroes or ruthless people would be able to gain a following, but nobody would follow a despicable schemer. Regardless of whether he was one deep inside, he must at least convince them on the surface. But his past was just like a ticking time bomb, threatening to destroy this team at any time.

Yu Han had been planning all the while, looking for a suitable opportunity to tell them everything.

After his initial uneasiness, after hearing Adams, Evelynn and a few others supporting him, he knew that he had succeeded. As long as he didn't do anything to make their hearts turn cold in the future, this team wouldn't be in danger of breaking apart. As for whether Yu Han was a ruthless or despicable person?

Was this important?

Who never had dark thoughts in their hearts before? He just had to put on a convincing front to other people.

Athena was left speechless by her teammates words, so she was actually a lucky person? So, everybody went through so many difficult to bring up memories? At this time, Evelynn looked at her, "Athena, ask yourself. If you did not meet Yu Han, what kind of life would you be living now in that team on the edge of desperate straits? You could live so peacefully for this half a year, and everybody even managed to largely regain their human form. Who do we owe all of this to?"

"I…sorry. But, I will still observe you, I will not let you continue to do those despicable things," Athena said to Yu Han.

"Of course, I welcome the supervision of everyone. I am not a saint. If you guys think anything I do is wrong then you guys must point it out to me." Yu Han revealed a calm smile on his face.

From the start till the end, Ning Xue didn't say anything. Ning Xue was smart to remain silent. With her relationship with Yu Han, anything she said would have probably been misunderstood by the rest. However, did Yu Han really change? Ning Xue looked at Yu Han blankly and finally revealed a smile. The storm brewing in the team had dissipated into nothingness just like this.

……

"Just like I said before, I admit that the things I did in the past were wrong, but I can't possibly just let them kill me. So, I'm prepared to face Bai Yi and talk things out with him. If we can resolve things then that is for the best. But if not, then I will fight back." Yu Han looked at the rest of his team solemnly.

"It doesn't matter, I will support team leader. In New Zealand now, there is no absolute good or evil. If team leader just decides to give up his life like that, I would just think you are a coward. If that Bai Yi is really too overbearing, then let's just battle. Since we decided to stand with team leader, then we will not go back on our words." Adams nodded.

"Thank you!" Yu Han nodded seriously.

Ning Xue played with her nails absent-mindedly, peaceful resolution was obviously not possible. The faces of Khina, Hong Qi Hua, and everyone else slowly appeared in her mind. In slightly more than half a year, their faces had actually started to become a little blurry. Ning Xue turned her head and looked at the side of Yu Han's face.

"Then, everyone take a bottle of Soul Purifying Tree sap. We didn't use this before, but now that we've confirmed the existence of ghosts, this can be put to use now. Remember to use it sparingly, this thing is harmful to ourselves too." Yu Han took out a sealed leather briefcase and took out the viscous liquid inside it.

Soul Purifying Tree - a plant found by a group of people who entered Wellington by chance. Due to the influence of the environment, the sap of this tree actually had the ability to purge spiritual lifeforms. It was probably similar to the saying, 'Within 7 steps of the place where a venomous snake appears, there must be an antidote.' Although there was probably some exaggeration, the natural world was indeed a harmonious body that complemented and countered each other. The kind of lifeform that stood at the peak above all other living things still hadn't come into existence yet.

The sap of the Purifying Soul Tree could not only purge spirits, but it was also damaging to the soul of living things. Everyone got a small bottle of this liquid. After leaving this inner lake, they just had to put a drop on their clothes and it could keep the ghosts away.

"We'll continue to look for the Dead Soul Flower, that is our main objective here. If Bai Yi's team really appears, then I'll talk to them," Yu Han said to everyone.

The rest of them nodded as well.

……

Bai Yi gradually slowed down and the rest of them following him gradually slowed down as well. Anna wanted to ask why weren't they running anymore, but suddenly felt that the aura around Bai Yi now was quite terrifying. Woolf was puzzled in his heart too, but similarly did not say anything and looked at Bai Yi.

Slow and gradual, Bai Yi's actions weren't hurried at all. His aura had gradually calmed down as the harsh aura around him disappeared completely. However, the Bai Yi now felt even more dangerous, as if a volcano was being suppressed at the bottom of his heart, gathering its power for the imminent eruption.

Even Woolf understood what Bai Yi was doing and learned from him, suppressing his own killing intent.

At this time, the ghosts around them were completely silent as well. They feared to provoke Bai Yi's group. Although people normally felt that the ghosts inside the movies were terrifying, it was actually nothing much when people saw through it. The ghosts inside the movies were terrifying just because normal humans were too weak, and they had little resistance toward many things. Those accidents and disasters brought about by ghosts in the movies wouldn't be able to kill Bai Yi's group even if it were repeated dozens of times. Of course, this was also because the people in Bai Yi's team were individually powerful, and had strong adaptability.

Moreover, Momo could even see ghosts now, so there was even less reason to be afraid.

"I tried to scare the people you were talking about before, and ended up luring the Giant Devil Mosquitos there…" Anna came close, wanting to say something, but Bai Yi stretched out his right hand. He gestured for her to stop talking. A mysterious and inexplicable feeling rose in him, and Bai Yi looked diagonally in front.

At this time, Yu Han's team had also just exited the inner lake, preparing to search for the next Dead Soul Flower. Similarly, the snake on Yu Han's left arm raised its head up and looked in Bai Yi's direction.

"He's here!"

The other people in Yu Han's team blanked for a moment, before suddenly realizing with a jolt who Yu Han said was here. Was it Bai Yi? Not letting down Yu Han's description of him, he really seemed like a man with great fortitude and strength. But what was this mysterious ability to sense each other they had, don't tell me it's the connection between archenemies?

Once their group heard Yu Han's warning, they all stopped, standing on the huge crooked bridge on top of the Oriental Bay Lake.

Yu Han took out the sap of the Soul Purifying Tree and dripped a few drops on his shoulders and waist. After seeing his actions, his teammates followed him as well. No matter what, the most dangerous thing in Wellington now was still the ghosts that would appear out of nowhere.

Slowly, in the eyes of Yu Han's team, a few figures slowly walked out from the dim street. Everyone in Bai Yi's team seemed to be very calm, but they still had an intimidating aura around them. Without anybody noticing, a crescent moon appeared above the east side of Wellington Port. The dim and pale moonlight shone on everything, foreboding that this night wouldn't be quiet.

Momo stretched out her right hand, and two Spirit Devouring Butterflies landed on each of their shoulders. The other Spirit Devouring Butterflies danced in the pale moonlight, appearing exceedingly beautiful. Bai Yi's team came to the grass patch by the shore of the lake. 100 meters away on the bridge stood Yu Han and his 8 other teammates, each with varying expressions.

The two sides stared at each other, a strange feeling arising in them.

"Long time no see!"

"It's really been a long time." Bai Yi didn't spout any arrogant words like Yu Han had lived for too long, this wasn't his personality.

"From the looks on your faces, you guys seem to know the conflict between Yu Han and I. Are you guys still supporting him?" Bai Yi looked at the other people beside Yu Han. Yu Han's teammates stood there, appearing to be prepared for battle. If Bai Yi couldn't even see this, then he would really be letting down all his past experiences.

"That's right, I have already told them everything. Then, what if I say that I want to resolve this peacefully, and I can make reparations for everything?" Yu Han looked at Bai Yi.

"Ha!" Bai Yi sneered and pulled out his fang sword.

'Shing!', a clear and prolonged sound rang in everyone's ears as the sword was drawn. All of them instantly tensed their bodies involuntarily. Yu Han's team only felt that this sound was too clear as if it was ringing from the bottom of their hearts. However, they didn't know that Bai Yi's attack had already begun.

_____________________________________________________________________________

His fang sword wasn't in the shape of a fang anymore but in the shape of a real sword. This was also a new technique that the evolved humans had discovered recently. A monster known as Corroding Fluid Beast contained a kind of fluid inside the meat lumps on its body that had very powerful corrosive properties. Metals would be corroded away and turned into scrap, but biological materials like teeth and bones would become softer after soaking in this corroding fluid for a certain period of time. After becoming softer, it became possible and easier to process these biological materials.

Some of the more talented people became the new 'artificers'.

These 'artificers' were also known as Weapon Armor Makers or 'WAM' for short. Of course, the so-called 'artificers' weren't like the ones in cultivation novels, but just used the claws, teeth, bones, or other materials of evolved lifeforms to create weapons or armors. No matter in which age, making use of tools had always been a strong point of humans.

Similarly, 'healers' had appeared during this period as well.

These 'healers' were known as Medicinal Makers or 'MM' for short. Similarly, they weren't like the healers in the novels. The various evolved plants and animals in New Zealand were all incredibly dangerous and unfamiliar. Although many plants and animals had effective medicinal properties, there wasn't any modern medicine production factory in New Zealand now. In the end, it was rare to see any two plants that were completely the same. Even if they were largely similar, there were still some differences between them. The assembly line processes of modern factories couldn't work in New Zealand now.

Medicinal Makers were those with decent talent and proficiencies in extracting medicinal products from biological materials. They were people who to a certain extent, could extract useful components of different plants and further process them to produce medicinal products.

The naming for these new jobs was just because of familiarity. After all, these two jobs appeared frequently in novels and video games. However, there was no need to bring in these elements of novels and video games here.

Chapter 116: Voice Hypnosis

"Understood!" Yu Han didn't try to be long-winded. In truth, he knew long ago that there was zero possibility of a peaceful resolution. He only said this to complete his acting in front of his teammates. This clearly told them that it wasn't that he wasn't willing to resolve things peacefully, but it was Bai Yi who was being too overbearing and aggressive.

"What about you guys? Are you guys really going to fight for a person like Yu Han?" Bai Yi looked at the people around Yu Han.

"Bai Yi team leader, is it really not possible to resolve this peacefully?" Adams asked.

"It's too bad then!"

"Then we are very sorry too. No matter what, Yu Han is still our leader now. Moreover, I don't think that he should give up his life as well. If Bai Yi team leader wants to be so overbearing, then don't blame us for what's about to come," Adams said.

"Don't blame me if you die." Bai Yi's voice was like a low mutter.

Hypnosis - Using actions, colors, sounds, and so on…to transmit erroneous signals to the five senses. Through such influence, the user befuddles their opponent's perception and judgment.

Bai Yi drew the fang sword from its sheath. The edge of the sword and the sheath ground against each other, releasing a clear ring!

Almost as if the sound came from the bottom of their hearts, the metallic cry rippled through the air from Bai Yi's sword!

"Come!" Bai Yi's eyes focused as he said a single word viciously.

The moment Bai Yi said this word, 3 people from Yu Han's team immediately burst out from their spots toward the lake shore without being cautious that it was easy to get attacked while in the air. The metallic ring of Bai Yi's sword just now had caused an intense battle lust to grow from their hearts. At the same time, they understood that a peaceful resolution was just a complete joke. Of the two teams standing here today, only one will make it out alive.

Woolf's mouth cracked open into a mocking smile, Idiots, you guys got influenced by Bai Yi's sword ring so easily and jumped out at us. 

One must know, that there were more than 100 meters of water between the two groups.

"Be careful, Kremer, Gaute…!" Yu Han's emotions were still quite calm; he didn't impulsively jump out like the 3 of them. After all, Bai Yi was still in the process of developing the method of using sound to influence his opponents' emotions. It could only be considered a shallow-level hypnosis that he had figured out how to apply recently.

The jumping power of humans now was really incomparable to the normal humans before. From high up, the three of them jumped fiercely. They had really jumped across the 100 meters separating them and the shore, landing toward the ground.

Bai Yi's eyes widened slightly as he held his fang sword diagonally. Terrifying killing intent rumbled in his eyes. Even if Bai Yi didn't know these people before, he had already passed the death sentence on them the moment they chose to side with Yu Han. After going through so many things, Yu Han was not the only one who changed and Bai Yi was changing as well. However, the difference between him and Yu Han was that Bai Yi had buried his kindness and gentleness deeply in his heart.

DIE!

Not just Bai Yi, but Woolf and rest also made their preparations to attack. These 3 people were fated to be the first to die in this place.

The people in Yu Han's team couldn't understand why their 3 teammates were so impulsive, but they could tell anyway that the situation wasn't good. They immediately sprinted rapidly from the two sides of the bridge, rushing to intercept the 3 of them. Adams also spread the wings on his back and immediately chased after them but none of them expected…

Suddenly, sounds of water splashing came the dark surface of the lake.

Two giant tentacles more than 10 meters in length abruptly burst out from the depths of the lake. They wrapped themselves around Kremer who was still in the air and dragged him down viciously. Both groups got a fright, nobody thought that something unexpected like this would happen.

However, in the blink of an eye, all of them reacted. The New Zealand now wasn't the New Zealand in the past, the name of this place was - Devil Island!

There was an uncountable number of twisted and powerful monsters on Devil Island and this was just on land. It was ever scarier closer to the sea. Unfortunately, this inner lake of Wellington actually connected to the seaport. Only heaven would know what type of aquatic monster this lifeform hiding under the water surface was. Without waiting for Bai Yi's team to act, the unlucky Kremer was already locked on by this monster.

'Putong!', this guy that was as large as Woolf got dragged into the bottom of the lake.

Yu Han's team instantly stunned for a moment, and after that, they saw a scene that rendered them speechless. Their eyes became wide open in shock.

Gaute and Evelynn charged toward Bai Yi's team. Gaute was fine, but when Evelynn charged toward Bai Yi, his Reverse Flower Eyes suddenly appeared and caused a momentary lapse in Evelynn's consciousness. In that short lapse, Evelynn lost any chance that she had.

'Puchi!', Evelynn's head flew up, and bright red blood sprayed into the sky.

Yu Han's left hand slowly paused in the air. He looked at Evelynn's head as it flew along with the bright red blood falling down. Beside Evelynn's corpse that had yet to fall down was Bai Yi's bewitching eyes. They looked like a flower blooming in reverse and Yu Han's team felt like it was seemingly sucking all of their minds into it. Yu Han's team completely blanked out as they looked at his eyes.

Yu Han's team were not the only ones stunned, even Woolf and the rest were stunned for a moment. Why was Bai Yi so ruthless from the start? The few of them had ganged up on Gaute and only crippled one of his arms. It wasn't that they didn't have the ability to kill him but it just wasn't necessary. However, Bai Yi had immediately killed that woman with his first strike.

Don't blame me if you die!

At this time, Yu Han's team suddenly recalled Bai Yi's words before the start of the battle. He wasn't joking when he said that. This was true revenge, a life and death battle.

"BAI…YI!!"

Yu Han's eyes suddenly bulged wide open and he roared ferociously. At this instant, Yu Han's heart even paused for a moment. At this moment, he could finally understand the pain that Bai Yi felt back then.

Looking at the Bai Yi that stood there silently, only Ning Xue could feel that…Bai Yi had changed! This was definitely not that warm-hearted Uncle Bai that was always gentle and smiling.

The Bai Yi that had buried all the kindness and gentleness in his heart was damn frightening!

"Be careful of Bai Yi's eyes!" Ning Xue saw Yu Han charging toward Bai Yi and immediately reminded him. In reality, the rest of them were already on guard against Bai Yi's eyes and did not need this reminder. Evelynn wasn't considered weak in the team, but even she had no ability to fight back in front of Bai Yi. In addition to Bai Yi's unique eyes, a phrase rose in all of their minds…Eye Techniques!

Bai Yi tilted his head, abruptly putting power on his feet and bursting out with a 'sou!' toward Yu Han.

The bunch of ghosts that watched the show by the side were quite shocked as well. Wasn't this too intense? To speak of it, this bunch of ghosts had died at the beginning of New Zealand's change, and they were just a bunch of normal people. They had never seen such a bitter and intense battle.

Only Anna drifted around the battlefield excitedly, only hoping that more blood would fly.

"Oooh, OH…well done! Awesome Bai Yi! You killed one right from the start!" Anna was extremely excited as if she had eaten some aphrodisiacs. Her spiritual form changed constantly, and she revealed half her head beside Bai Yi. Yu Han got a fright the moment Anna appeared. This half a head that appeared out of nowhere would give anybody mentally sound a jump.

After hearing Anna's words, other than feeling pain in his heart, he also felt a ball of resentment and jealousy rise inside.

That is a ghost right!

Why could these ghosts actually communicate with Bai Yi!

"It's always like this, it's always like this! You always meet with all the good things!" However, Yu Han never stopped and thought about how the number of fortunate encounters he had wasn't necessarily lesser than Bai Yi's. Yu Han's heart hurt crazily and he burned with jealousy at the same time. At the same time, the eyes of the snake on his left arm released a frightening light.

I get all the good things?

Bai Yi laughed mockingly and his face turned malevolent instantly. Even joking has to have a limit! He wasn't like the protagonist people commonly saw in novels where good things always gathered around him. Every bit of power that he and his friends obtained had been earned through their own efforts and struggles! Or was it that you were always having these kinds of fantasies? That's why you were always so jealous of others, that's why you schemed against others, and that's why you were so despicable?!

This pair of eyes, do you know under what kind of circumstances I awakened them?! Do you know?!

Reverse Flower Eyes!

The reversed flower in Bai Yi's eyes instantly bloomed. Even though Yu Han knew long ago that Bai Yi's eyes were very suspicious, he still subconsciously looked into it. This was because an overwhelming majority of lifeforms on Earth relied too heavily on their vision. Naturally, humans were also among these. In this moment, Bai Yi swung his fang sword at Yu Han viciously.

"Yu Han!" Ning Xue saw that something bad was about to happen to Yu Han by the side and instantaneously shot out two fingernails. Her fingernails were about 10 centimeters in length. They were black and sharp and shot toward Bai Yi's face with a 'sou!'. Right behind her fingernails, Ning Xue was already dashing toward Yu Han.

Bai Yi lifted his fang sword slightly, and with two 'dangs!' he parried the fingernails. In that split second of pause, the snake on Yu Han's left arm hissed and he immediately awoke from the hypnosis.

In the moment he regained consciousness, Yu Han rapidly stepped back twice and pulled Ning Xue away at the same time.

"Your eyes, what is its name?" Yu Han had a dark look on his face, his eyes looking diagonally away. He did not dare to look into Bai Yi's eyes. Yu Han didn't ask about the principle behind his eyes because he knew that it was impossible for Bai Yi to tell him. However, if it was just the name, Bai Yi shouldn't reject him.

"Reverse Flower Eyes!"

"So it's like that!" Yu Han raised his left arm, and the python slowly wrapped around the tortoise shield and flicked its tongue. "My left arm is now called Xuan Wu Arm." Yu Han wasn't shaken by Bai Yi's eyes and raised his left arm toward Bai Yi as he thought, But this is really so infuriating, Bai Yi, this guy clearly only fused with butterfly genes, so how did he get such a powerful ability!

"Be careful, don't look into his eyes. It seems to be a hypnosis ability, and not an illusion like we imagined. As long as we focus our attention the influence on us should be much smaller," Yu Han said after retreating backward and pausing for a while.

Illusions, Yu Han had apparently thought of the ability in Bai Yi's eyes like the special abilities in animes. However, Yu Han was right. A notable characteristic of hypnosis was that the effect on people with strong wills was very small. Bai Yi had discovered this point long ago as well. Bai Yi's eyes now were indeed very powerful, but it wasn't unbeatable. In reality, it was very simple to resist Bai Yi's eyes; they just had to have a strong will. The first time people encountered Bai Yi's eyes would always be the time when it was the easiest to fall under his hypnosis.

The effect of the Reverse Flower Eyes would indeed be reduced by a lot on those with strong wills but it wouldn't be completely ineffective!

Even if the individual's will was strong and they could wake up from the hypnosis very quickly, a momentary lapse in concentration during battle was fatal. If not for Ning Xue just now, even if Yu Han hadn't died, he would at least be heavily injured.

"Are you prepared to receive your death!"

Chapter 117: Right And Wrong?

As of now, although the lifeforms on Devil Island were strange, they just had powerful strength in addition to the special energy. To normal humans, these lifeforms would be incomparably dangerous. Although these lifeforms were very strong, most of their strength came from abilities that they already had. Examples included their tentacles, venom, spider silk, sharp fangs and claws, immense physical strength, or other parts of their bodies. Only a very small portion evolved based on their initial abilities and acquired special abilities.

Such as Bai Yi's Reverse Flower Eyes!

Although his Reverse Flower Eyes seemed to be very powerful, it had not completely exceeded the range of transformation possible to living things.

Yu Han's Xuan Wu arm was the same. Although he named his own arm as Xuan Wu, in reality, it had nothing to do with the mythological Xuan Wu. In the end, it was just him fusing with the genes of a golden python and a tortoise; his arm had transformed into this form by chance.

However, just like the changes in Bai Yi's eyes, Yu Han's left arm was a little different as well.

Decomposition!

Yu Han had been injured several times. Although the changes in his left arm weren't as obvious as Bai Yi's, he still had more or less figured out some of the principles behind it. Decomposition, this was the power that Yu Han's left arm had now.

This couldn't be considered to be some special ability either as every lifeform possessed the ability to regulate their bodies. For example, after a normal human gets bitten by a mosquito, a slight toxin would invade their body. A bump may appear on the spot where the person was bitten but he definitely wouldn't die because the body is capable of breaking down that toxin. However, if the person was bitten by something more deadly like a venomous snake, then a normal human would be in big trouble.

Yu Han's Xuan Wu Arm magnified this decomposition to the utmost. Any random thing that invaded his left arm would seemingly be completely broken down. An example would be the reddish-black beetle that bit his left arm. This allowed him to be fine after that. Yu Han had even thought about the mythology behind the Xuan Wu.

Xuan Wu, also known as Xuan Ming, was a combination of a snake and a tortoise. It was a Water God that lived in the Eastern Seas. It possessed unfathomable power and contained the Four Directions and Yin Yang within it.

This was the reason for Yu Han's internalt pride and arrogance. He himself knew that his left arm had nothing to do with the so-called Xuan Wu, but he just couldn't help but feel pleased about it. Who knew if his Xuan Wu Arm would evolve to really become able to break down anything. Perhaps not just toxins, but maybe even various forms of special energy could be absorbed for his own use in the future. It could be just like the Eastern Underworld Divine Techniques in those novels.

……

When Yu Han was hypnotized by Bai Yi's Reverse Flower Eyes just now, his Xuan Wu Arm had sent out a warm flow thatt circulated around his body instantly. This woke him up from the dazed state. It wasn't the first time that Yu Han had experienced this kind of situation either Apparently, this uncontrollable warm flow was the special energy inside his body. Whenever any fatal compounds accidentally entered his body, this warm flow would appear.

Unfortunately, it could only appear passively. If he could actively manipulate it, then maybe he wouldn't have to be worried about Bai Yi's eyes anymore.

However, he still felt very dissatisfied. Bai Yi had only fused with butterfly genes, how did it change to become such a demonic pair of eyes?

This was Yu Han's attitude at the bottom of his heart. He just couldn't bear to see other people being better off than him. In this twisted world now, this attitude of his became even more obvious. He didn't think about how his left arm had already helped him be a step ahead of so many other people. This world wasn't one that only revolved around one person. Why was it that only he could gain good things while others must be inferior to him?

Including himself, there were a total of 10 people in Yu Han's team. The Giant Devil Mosquitos ate one, the aquatic monster drowned another, and Bai Yi killed the third one. Leaving aside Yu Han and Ning Xue, the 5 remaining people just happened to coincide with the number of people that Bai Yi had on his team. Apparently, these teammates of Yu Han weren't randomly picked, they all seemed to have decent strength.

"Are you ready to receive your death!" Bai Yi didn't care about the battles of other people. He only stretched out his left hand and gestured invitingly. It was an invitation of death.

"The person to die will be you, Bai Yi!"

Yu Han roared viciously and abruptly charged at him. He raised his left arm and the golden python pounced at Bai Yi ferociously. At the same time, Ning Xue hesitated for a moment but charged toward Bai Yi too. At this point in time, even Ning Xue couldn't keep herself out of this the moment she resolutely decided to stick with Yu Han.

Bai Yi opened his eyes wide and raised his fang sword slightly!

They had already imagined that they would have a difficult battle with Bai Yi earlier on. However, they didn't expect that it would be tough to this extent. The two of them didn't dare to meet Bai Yi's eyes at all. Doing so would leave them wide open and almost certainly invited death. However, how could it be easy to not look at the other person? 99% of the lifeforms on Earth were used to employing their eyes to look at this world. They couldn't just suddenly choose to avoid using their eyes anymore.

When they crossed each other, the python on Yu Han's left arm bit toward Bai Yi.

At this moment, Bai Yi's fang sword shot out, cutting through the air and slicing into the python's body. Because they didn't dare to cross their gazes with Bai Yi, neither Yu Han or Ning Xue saw the way Bai Yi's sword moved. Bai Yi's Reverse Flower Eyes was indeed his most useful ability, but that didn't mean that Bai Yi would only rely on this.

Blade Force!

'Puchi!', Yu Han felt through the python a heart-piercing pain, and the python also screamed pitifully in a high-pitched tone. This strike was completely different from the clash before, it directly hacked into the hard scales of the python and almost split the python into half.

Suddenly suffering from this immense pain, Yu Han instinctually turned his head slightly to look at that side.

Reverse Flower Eyes!

The Reverse Flower Eyes this time was different from before, and blood instantly started flowing down from Bai Yi's eyes. It was clear that the Reverse Flower Eyes this time had reached the third stage, and the special energy rapidly moved inside his body.

Shit!

The moment Yu Han turned around, he saw Bai Yi's bewitching eyes, and a word arose in his mind. As their gazes crossed, Yu Han immediately felt like he had descended into a kaleidoscopic world and lost himself in a short while. Even if he had just experienced something like this moments before, Yu Han still couldn't react properly. Yu Han screamed crazily in his heart, hoping that his Xuan Wu Arm would send out the special energy and break through the hypnosis like it had done so previously.

However, this time, the more panicked Yu Han became, the more he couldn't wake up. It was just like having a nightmare while experiencing a sleep paralysis. He clearly felt terrified, but he just couldn't wake up.

Suddenly, a warm drop of liquid fell onto Yu Han's face. In addition to the rolling of special energy in his body, Yu Han's eyes regained their clarity again.

However, what Yu Han saw utterly stunned him.

Ning Xue was blocking in front of him with Bai Yi's sword pierced through the center of her chest. She had used all her might to grab onto the sword with her hard claws and did not let it move. Warm blood spurted out continuously from the front and back of Ning Xue's body, splattering onto Yu Han's face.

Idiot!

Bai Yi's eyes shook for a moment as well, and a word rose in his heart. However, Bai Yi still didn't stop and slowly tried to pull his fang sword out from her body. However, Ning Xue grabbed onto the fang sword tightly and refused to let go. At the same time, her right hand shot out and 3 sharp black nails aimed at Bai Yi.

Bai Yi had witnessed before how powerful her sharp nails were. Since he couldn't pull his fang sword out at the moment, he had no choice but to release his right hand and jump backward.

Seeing Bai Yi let go of the fang sword, Ning Xue didn't continue to shoot her nails out either. Instead, she snuggled against Yu Han's body just like that and slowly fell.

"Doctor, where's the doctor?! Athena!!" Yu Han hugged Ning Xue tightly, watching as her blood gushed out continuously. Bai Yi's sword had really pierced through the center of her heart, this was evident just from looking at the gushing blood. However, when Yu Han looked around in panic, he realized that all his teammates were engaged in their own difficult battles. The Athena he was calling for was being chased brutally by Sharpei. Her clothes were all ripped to shreds and there was blood everywhere on her body. She appeared to be incomparably miserable.

"Yu, Yu Han…Our child." Ning Xue's right hand slowly caressed her lower abdomen.

"En, en, our child." Yu Han held Ning Xue close, his tears flowing down profusely from his eyes.

Yu Han knew that he had done many wrongs, and many people couldn't accept the things that he did. But Ning Xue still followed him all the while, precisely because she carried his child in her tummy. Maybe it was due to the activated cells, but this child didn't have many changes even after 9 months. They didn't know when the child would be born either. Precisely because of Ning Xue, Yu Han wanted to change. If he couldn't be a hero then a ruthless character was fine too, but…but…!!!

Bai Yi stopped on the spot as the blood from his eyes flowed profusely down his cheeks as it left two bright-red lines on his face.

Child!

Ning Xue was actually pregnant? Then it must be Yu Han's, so it was like that. This was the reason why Ning Xue would never leave Yu Han.

Bai Yi looked at the life slowly departing from Ning Xue's face. He did not know how to describe his feelings now. The kindness and gentleness that he had buried deep inside his heart gradually started to float back up again. In the past, they were all actually good friends. Bai Yi thought of the times back in Waikato University, and the lively scenes of these youths playing together.

However now…How many of them were still alive, and how many of them died in each other's hands?

Bai Yi looked at his hands, and closed his eyes.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH….!!!!!" Yu Han suddenly roared toward this sky, his voice containing a heart-rending sorrow. He was apparently hurt to the limit. The intense soundwaves rippled across the air surrounding them, resonating in everyone's hearts. The two sides that were initially battling with each other immediately looked over, and saw the scene of Yu Han hugging Ning Xue on the floor.

KILL, KILL THEM!

The eyes of Yu Han's teammates immediately turned red, and their expressions gradually turned berserk. The reason they came to Wellington to search for the Dead Soul Flower was precisely to nourish their soul. After all, nobody else had a hypnotic ability like Bai Yi's that could help to balance the body and the soul yet. After suffering through so much shock and agitation, Yu Han's team all started to fall into the berserk state.

Yu Han slowly stood up as his body swayed. He suddenly raised his head and stared at Bai Yi with incredible malevolence in his eyes.
