Li Jiang and the others saw Mu Qinglan, and they quickly surrounded her.
Their expressions towards Tan Yueya just now had been stern.
Facing Mu Qinglan, who now possessed formidable combat power, they instantly became fawning.
"Please, have a seat. Let's discuss tomorrow's battle between you and Xiao Ye."
Tan Yueya stood by the door, watching blankly as the entire situation became tense.
Given Mu Qinglan's noble status, it was unlikely she would flee or retreat.
Tan Yueya could only walk away dejectedly. She looked at the entire alliance, which seemed dim and lusterless.
The alliance was in a state of extreme alert. Tan Yueya smiled helplessly, "Xiao Ye... Xiao Ye... how exactly should we kill you?"
The next day.
A giant dragon of Blue Star let out a pained roar in the forest.
It was severely wounded and collapsed with a roar of unwillingness.
The dragon's huge eyes opened, facing directly towards Xiao Ye as it died.
Xiao Ye suddenly retracted the dark energy from his body.
Cheers erupted from behind him, the excited army of infected.
Tens of millions of infected had followed Xiao Ye for a day and a night. They were all clearly bloodthirsty.
Many who had become infected were participating in combat for the first time.
Because they followed Xiao Ye's orders, they had eliminated monsters along the way.
They had developed combat awareness. Compared to the complacent humans in the alliance, their lethality had greatly increased.
Xiao Ye took a sip of water.
It was getting dark, and they were not far from the alliance.
"King, please sit here for a while. We'll roast some monsters to eat."
Gu Feng and the others were somewhat weary. They looked respectfully at Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye also knew that these people were not machines and couldn't march forward without fatigue.
He joined the crowd to find a place to rest. Gu Feng and the others busily started a bonfire.
This fallen dragon was enormous, enough for them to eat for at least one meal.
Many people cut off dragon meat and began roasting it.
Xiao Ye saw Zhao Chen respectfully offering dragon meat, and he casually accepted it.
He looked up at the starry sky. Xiao Ye tore at the dragon meat, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
Tomorrow, the infected would attack the alliance. They were all incredibly excited.
After finishing the dragon meat, Xiao Ye held the peace buckle in his hand.
A hint of longing appeared in his eyes. Xiao Ye knew that if Xiaoxi were by his side.
Xiaoxi would always carry delicious food and share it with everyone when they were hungry.
The stars twinkled, bright and dim.
Xiao Ye put the peace buckle into his pocket and heard the infected around him say.
"Let's find a place to rest."
So many of them stood densely in the forest. Their numbers were vast and terrifying.
However, compared to the towering trees, they were merely a tiny speck.
Just then, someone noticed a patch of light ahead.
"King, there seems to be some movement ahead..."
Someone's voice called out. Gu Feng and the others urgently informed Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye's gaze turned towards the distance, dark energy swirling.
Then, they saw.
Dozens of people riding demonic black horses were charging forward aggressively.
"Halt... halt and be robbed..."
Upon seeing the dense crowd behind Xiao Ye.
The bandits who had come to rob were stunned.
Gu Feng and the others saw dozens of people, wielding weapons menacingly.
Gu Feng and the others raised their eyebrows, "You want to rob us?"
Damn it!
How dare they!
The dozens of bandits saw the magnificent procession.
They were so scared they immediately knelt down, "Please spare us, lords. We are willing to hand over all our valuables."
"Do you know this area well?"
Gu Feng and the others approached the bandits and apprehended them.
The dozens of bandits were lifted up, not daring to utter a sound.
"Yes, very well!"
Gu Feng and the others looked at Xiao Ye with satisfaction and said respectfully, "King, they know the roads here. Let them lead us to a place to rest."
Xiao Ye wanted to save trouble, so he casually nodded.
Led by the bandits, the entire army of infected quickly found accommodation.
Hundreds of bandit subordinates living in houses in the forest rejoiced at their leaders' return.
Upon seeing the dense army of infected, their faces were filled with bewilderment.
"My good heroes, please rest here well."
A man who looked like a leader strode forward.
He called out to the surrounding subordinates and brought out all the food from the bandit lair to treat the heroes.
The infected, who hadn't eaten much dragon meat, had their eyes light up when they saw the bandits bring out whole sheep.
At Xiao Ye's signal, they propped up the sheep.
The bandits nervously brought the sheep and began roasting a whole lamb for Gu Feng and the others.
The aroma filled the air.
Xiao Ye noticed from the side that although these bandits appeared frightened.
Their bodies were not shaking much.
[Host, I find these bandits suspicious...]
The system suddenly appeared in Xiao Ye's mind, kindly reminding him.
Because the system had exhausted all its energy helping him during the previous battle.
He had reconciled a lot with the system. He calmly replied to the system, [You mean these bandits don't seem afraid?]
[They seem to be pretending to be scared, but their heartbeats are very regular.]
Hearing this.
Xiao Ye narrowed his eyes. In this forest, encountering bandits who came to rob.
In his eyes, it seemed like they were courting death.
Who would have thought there was such a dense crowd ahead, armed and ready to rob?
To Xiao Ye, this made the bandits seem very foolish.
However, bandits who could survive in the vicinity of the forest and compete with monsters for food.
Were they really that foolish?
Xiao Ye was contemplating something. He did not warn the other infected.
He calmly wanted to see what these bandits were up to.
Soon, the whole lamb feast was roasted. Gu Feng and the others presented the lamb to Xiao Ye.
Xiao Ye shook his head, "You all eat. I've already had dragon meat."
Gu Feng and the others didn't insist and began tearing into the lamb.
Xiao Ye's dark energy swirled in the air, then entered the lamb.
The lamb had dark spots of unknown substances within it.
Xiao Ye used his dark energy to evaporate these black spots. Some were still not drawn out.
Gu Feng and the others ate heartily.
Xiao Ye's voice echoed faintly, "You all eat this whole lamb."
The bandits beside them were stunned. They looked at Xiao Ye in surprise.
The infected did not expect Xiao Ye to say this suddenly, but their movements were quick and agile!
"Our King told you to eat, so hurry up and eat."
The roasted whole lamb was handed to the bandits. After their initial daze, they became grateful.
They looked at Xiao Ye with gratitude, their eyes tearful.
However, their eating was slow, they chewed deliberately...
