The evolution of each small world naturally developed and changed according to their own will.
Who was one step ahead and who was one step behind would only be revealed at the end of the game.
"Teacher, I don't understand. Why did you keep him?" Yu Wenfei knitted his eyebrows tightly. Like the Fifth Tycoon, Yan Li's opportunistic behavior of giving up the wooden plate displeased him from the bottom of his heart. "This man has planted a seed in the hearts of Ma Jun and the others. I'm afraid that the prey will have a new variable."
"There will definitely be variables." Chen Tai sat cross-legged leisurely. "This is the result I want."
Yu Wenfei's heart skipped a beat. "Could it be that you already have other ideas?"
"Greed is the original sin." Chen Tai sighed emotionally. "The prey is already in the net. It's just struggling. But that Yan Li, if I were to say it, you guys are not even comparable to one of his fingers. "
Yu Wenfei's face suddenly turned ugly. "This … he can't even deal with ghost spirits."
"I'm not talking about strength," Chen Tai said. "In the situation at that time, he was able to judge the situation and make the best choice. He followed Young Master Lian's interests and maximized the benefits. This shows his extraordinary shrewdness. It also shows that from the beginning, he had already judged Young Master Lian's value. "
"He, he even rejected Young Master Lian!" Yu Wenfei said angrily. "Does he really think he can pass the Four Introductory Realms?"
"This is also the most brilliant part of him." Chen Tai said. "A dog that is too easily tamed will soon be forgotten by its master. Moreover, he is going to participate in the Four Introductory Realms. What will Young Master Lian think if he knows? "
Yu Wenfei thought for a while and said, "Young Master Lian will suddenly realize that his rejection is not because he looks down on the Lian family, but because he has a bigger goal."
"That's right." Chen Tai continued. "As long as he gives Young Master Lian this impression, even if he fails, he won't lose his honor. Young Master Lian will still give him a chance. After all, it's not embarrassing to take in someone who was eliminated by the Court Of Sword. In this way, he can advance and retreat as he pleases. "
"What a cunning fellow!" Yu Wenfei couldn't help but say, "Then what should we do?"
Chen Tai said indifferently, "In the face of absolute strength, no matter how good one is at scheming and shrewdness, it is all just talk on paper. Young Master Lian will soon know that the only person who can protect him and return to White Water City alive is me, Chen Tai."
"Teacher is wise!"
…
The next day.
Mister Lian seemed to have lost the novelty of the hunting ground. He didn't stop midway and continued on his way. However, the closer they got to the Divine Dream Lake, the more Star Fallen Beasts they encountered. With Chen Tai's rich experience, the hunting group avoided many unnecessary battles and had a bountiful harvest.
This continued until the afternoon of the next day, when they finally arrived at their destination – Divine Dream Lake.
After emerging from a primitive forest, the scene before them suddenly opened up. It was as if they were in a paradise. Under the blue sky, a boundless lake appeared in front of them.
The surface of the lake sparkled, reflecting bits of golden light under the bright sunlight. It was as if the ground was covered in gold, forming a sharp contrast with the gloomy old forest.
Mister Lian only glanced at it and wasn't very interested. On the other hand, the two concubines kept crying out in surprise.
"Take out the thing," Chen Tai said to Ma Jun and the other two.
Ma Jun immediately took out a bamboo raft from his Qiankun bag and threw it onto the lake.
Chen Tai also took out an item. Using the raft as a base, he also put something on it. The item was not a very big Noble Artifact. However, when it landed on the raft, it immediately became bigger. In the blink of an eye, it became a medium-sized pavilion. It looked very light, but because the raft was carrying it, it didn't sink much.
"Alright, Mister Lian, please," he said to Mister Lian with a smile.
"Okay," Mister Lian was slightly satisfied. He held the two concubines and went up to the pavilion.
Chen Tai looked at Ma Jun again.
Ma Jun understood and took out a bamboo raft and threw it into the water.
Chen Tai jumped onto the bamboo raft. Using an invisible force, he pushed the pavilion to the center of the lake.
"You guys find a place to set up camp. If the Demon Bear appears, remember to wait for me to come back to deal with it."
Seeing Chen Tai leave, they didn't talk anymore. They went to set up camp.
Ma Jun and the other two naturally gathered together once again.
Zhou Tong looked around and said in a low voice, "Brother Ma, when are we going to move?"
"Don't rush. Wait until after midnight for my instructions." Ma Jun also lowered his voice. "I've planned the route back. It's the way we came here."
"But it's a long way back. How can we remember it?" Sun Lu asked.
Ma Jun smiled. "I've left marks along the way. Do you think I won't be on guard? It won't be easy for Chen Tai to trick me."
"You're Brother Ma."
…
That night, Mister Lian returned to the campsite with his concubines. Obviously, he wasn't satisfied with the lake trip. He went to sleep with his concubines early in the morning.
Yan Li and Qin Sufang were keeping watch at night.
It was the first time Yan Li was alone with Qin Sufang. Under the moonlight, the indifferent face of this woman who looked like Ji Wuyi looked especially bleak. The fiery campfire didn't give her much warmth. Instead, it reflected the scars deep in her eyes.
This was a soul that was scarred and numb.
Yan Li felt like he was facing a walking corpse. He had this feeling since the first time they met. Now that the two of them were alone, the feeling was even stronger. He didn't know how to break the stiff atmosphere. Maybe he shouldn't break it?
The firewood crackled as it burned.
"What are you living for?" Qin Sufang broke the silence without warning.
Yan Li realized that she wasn't looking at him when she spoke. Then he realized that she wasn't talking to him. Instead, she was talking to the ants on the ground. She was using the sheath of her sword to grind a few ants on the ground repeatedly as if she was taking revenge on them.
Her actions conveyed such a message, but her face was still cold and numb.
"Being alive is a good thing after all," Yan Li said softly.
Qin Sufang slowly raised her head and looked at Yan Li coldly. "What are you living for?"
Yan Li had faced similar questions many times. This time, he didn't answer her directly. "Don't try to find the answer from others. That's other people's answer. You control your own fate. You're in so much pain that you want to die. You're in so much pain that you want to die. It's your own business. "
Qin Sufang opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something. But before she could say anything, she was interrupted by an angry roar.
"Damn it! Someone stole my Qiankun Bag!"
