Chapter 682: 366 Psychological Warfare_2

Even so, they still had a fighting chance, and Ji Chengtian was a Third-level Peak superpower user who had already started to break through to Level 4!

However, when Fang Yuyang, riding on Wujin, appeared and deliberately unleashed his formidable aura, it was only then that Deng Hong and Meng Ping realized their previous guess was terribly wrong! They had underestimated the enemy! The adversary might very well be a Level 4 Superpower User!

How could that be possible!

Deng Hong and Meng Ping thought the same thing. In their entire Chengtian Base, there were nearly a hundred thousand superpower users, yet fewer than a hundred were at Level 3, and among those, only Ji Chengtian had reached the Third-level Peak!

Who exactly was this person? With such terrifying strength, he could become a dominant ruler anywhere, so why had he suddenly appeared in Ping’an City? What were his intentions?

Unable to come up with an answer, Deng Hong and Meng Ping could only watch Fang Yuyang warily. Wujin was flying very high, making Fang Yuyang on his back seem even more lofty and imposing, instilling in Deng Hong and Meng Ping a sudden sense of dread—they were in the presence of someone they could only look up to!

They didn’t order their subordinates to attack. Deng Hong felt his throat was a bit dry; he swallowed and nervously asked, "This friend looks unfamiliar. Could it be that you’ve come from the outside?"

Fang Yuyang didn’t reply. Instead, he stood with his hands behind his back, looking down on them from a superior position, exuding an emotionally cool demeanor that created immense psychological pressure on them. It was at this moment that a deafening tiger’s roar came from the direction of the convoy!

Deng Hong and Meng Ping instinctively turned their heads to look and saw a majestic tiger strut out from the vehicles, with an exceptionally handsome man seated on its back. This man’s face was expressionless, but his facial features were impeccably handsome, many times more so than any star they had ever seen online or in movies!

Deng Hong and Meng Ping involuntarily exchanged glances, both feeling a tad bittersweet—why were handsome men showing up all at once in these times? Who exactly were these people? Were they some bizarre group of good-looking men and beautiful women?

Both had always felt they were quite good-looking, but upon this comparison, they instantly felt as though their own appearances were downright crap!

Then they were shocked again—damn, another Level 4 Superpower User showed up! Who exactly were these people? Level 4 Superpower Users one after another? Could it be that the situation outside was different from here? Were Level 4 Superpower Users already numerous? What were they supposed to do now!

Bai Ye coldly glanced at the two men and said in a deep voice, "Those who surrender now will not be killed."

At first, Bai Zhengli thought it would be better to simply dismiss these people since they were all survivors and there were more than a thousand of them here—it wasn’t worth killing them all. But Bai Ye thought it was better to capture them directly rather than "releasing a tiger back to the mountain."

It was impossible to kill everyone, but they could take them as prisoners to avoid them returning to Chengtian Base. Otherwise, they would inevitably have to fight when they later went to Chengtian Base.

So he purposefully contacted Fang Yuyang and asked him to make an appearance first, deliberately projecting his imposing aura to intimidate these people into submission without a fight. Then he would appear himself; two Level 4 Superpower Users should be enough to make these people know what was good for them, right?

As expected, as soon as Bai Ye spoke, many faces changed color, especially Deng Hong and Meng Ping, the two leaders. Both were Ji Chengtian’s trusted subordinates, always following Ji Chengtian’s orders. This was not only because Ji Chengtian was powerful, but also because he was ambitious and smart! Both felt that following Ji Chengtian had a promising future.

However, after encountering Fang Yuyang and Bai Ye, they began to waver. Birds choose trees to nest in just as people seek higher ground; unlike the ancient times where one did not serve two masters, now people were more practical—so long as they could survive or even thrive, they would follow along, like changing jobs for a company that offers better terms.

Moreover, they had all seen Ji Chengtian’s ambition and ruthlessness, yet his pettiness was also clear. In order to control his subordinates, he imposed severe restrictions on them. Most of the Crystal Cores obtained from hunting were pocketed by him, and often during hunts for advanced zombies, he would sacrifice lives, staying back until it was time to deliver the final blow.

After seeing much of this, people naturally felt chilled to the heart, but Ji Chengtian was stronger than any of them. If they didn’t comply, they would lose their status and might even lose their lives!

Before, they wouldn’t dare to think of rebelling, not even daring to murmur complaints, but now after witnessing Fang Yuyang and Bai Ye, they suddenly thought that following these two might be better than following Ji Chengtian! At least, these two didn’t seem to be the cruel and ruthless type!

So, with determination, Deng Hong boldly asked, "If we surrender, you won’t kill us, will you?"

Bai Ye looked at him with a half-smiling, half-serious gaze that seemed to see right through Deng Hong. He didn’t answer directly but countered by saying, "I said, surrender now, and you will not be killed."

Deng Hong clenched his fists tightly, struggling internally; Bai Ye’s noncommittal response was unsettling. Just as he hesitated, Meng Ping beside him had already spoken up, "I surrender."

Deng Hong was taken aback and fiercely turned his head, glaring at Meng Ping—you want to compete with me for this, too? (To be continued.
