Chapter 175: Strange Enemy Retreat

Bai Zhan barely had time to think as An Xiong’s attack came again.

He swiftly got up, but An Xiong’s punch came crashing down. Bai Zhan hurriedly defended with his sword, but An Xiong’s strength was overwhelming.

Once again, Bai Zhan was sent flying, utterly defenseless.

An Xiong, an eighth-stage evolver, surpassed Bai Zhan’s expectations by far.

Bai Zhan was terrified. How could there be such a huge difference in just one stage of evolution?

Unbeknownst to him, An Xiong had awakened the bloodline of an ancient Earth-shaking bear. The power he unleashed was far beyond what Bai Zhan could withstand.

However, reinforcements arrived swiftly. Bai Zhan was briefly relieved, but that relief turned to despair within seconds.

The reinforcements were instantly trapped in a separate space by Ping Yu’s spatial abilities. Then that space shattered, killing everyone inside.

For high-level evolvers, especially those with eerie spatial abilities, taking lives was as easy as snapping their fingers.

"Is there really no one who can stop them?"

At this moment, even the eighth-stage evolver, Chief Lei, felt utter despair. Despite being an eighth-stage evolver himself, he dared not confront the spatial abilities.

Just as everyone was in fear and panic, to their surprise, Ping Yu and An Xiong retreated. They left.

This brought relief to everyone except Bai Zhan. Why would they leave when they had the power to eliminate them all?

As Bai Zhan puzzled over their departure, he heard something that filled him with despair once again.

"Ping Yu, this Bai Zhan acts all high and mighty. I’ve been itching to take him down. You go ahead; I’ll deal with him before leaving!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhan’s expression changed. He cursed inwardly, "Damn it, when did I offend you?"

But now wasn’t the time for these thoughts. The other party had murderous intent. If he didn’t escape now, when else?

With this in mind, Bai Zhan immediately got up and fled into the distance.

Seeing this scene, An Xiong burst into laughter.

"Haha! Look at how scared he looks, Bai Zhan, aren’t you supposed to be tough? Are you scared now?"

An Xiong laughed wildly as he spoke, then fiercely smashed the ground with his fist.

Crack! Crack!

The ground cracked open directly, forming a huge fissure where buildings collapsed and fell in.

The fissure chased after Bai Zhan swiftly.

In the midst of this chaos, Bai Zhan directly abandoned the mecha and leaped out of it.

The mecha fell into the massive fissure, and in the next moment, the fissure slowly closed, crushing everything inside into pieces.

The attack of the Earth-shaking Bear was truly extraordinary.

Meanwhile, Bai Zhan, who had escaped the mecha, hid behind a large building, panting heavily.

Seeing this scene from afar, An Xiong didn’t confirm Bai Zhan’s death and left with Ping Yu.

Yan Long City was completely calm again.

The eighth-ranked Earth Fury Bear was killed by the attack of the eight mechas.

At this moment, Yang City was filled with silence.

Chief Lei led his people here, looking at the ruins of Yan Long City before finally heaving a sigh of relief.

Seeing Bai Zhan alive, he hurriedly walked over, excited.

Now that he had lost An Xiong and Ping Yu under his command, losing Bai Zhan as well would be a huge loss for him.

But Bai Zhan just snorted, completely ignoring Chief Lei.

After all, if Chief Lei hadn’t wronged Xiao Feng, with Xiao Feng’s strength, dealing with them would have been much easier.

All of this, all these losses, were caused solely by Chief Lei’s selfish desires.

But no matter what, Yan Long City was still attacked.

The next thing to do was to thoroughly clean up all the remaining zombies and mutant beasts in the city area.

At this moment, Lin Wanru from Xing Zong had finished handling the aftermath of Qin Hai and Jiang Hong’s matters and returned to the command post. Upon seeing that the people from Qingyun Base had taken over Yan Long City, she felt relieved.

However, she hadn’t witnessed the truth earlier: the real eighth-level Spatial Evolutionist wasn’t Xiao Feng. Unaware of this, Lin Wanru bid farewell to Chief Lei and planned to go to Yu Lin City to find Chu Xinger. This descent from the mountain was meant for a long-term experience, so she couldn’t return temporarily.

The matter in Yan Long City had seemingly reached its conclusion. Yet, unbeknownst to them, the entire city had been seeded with a ticking time bomb. The blue-colored Zombie King awaited the migration of all survivors to detonate this bomb.

By now, Chu Xinger had returned to Shelter No. 1 in Yu Lin City. The number of people she led had dwindled to a few hundred. However, these were the elite forces of Shelter No. 1. After breaking through a gap, Chu Xinger finally returned to the shelter.

With Chu Xinger’s support, Chu Tianxing immediately felt relieved. "Xinger, how’s the situation in Yan Long City?"

Chu Tianxing, somewhat tired, inquired.

"I don’t know. When I left, they were launching the final attack. However, the city kept pouring out powerful mutant beasts. Everyone suspected that Xiao Feng might have opened a spatial gateway inside, attracting the outside mutant beasts!"

"Xiao Feng? Wasn’t he at the restaurant?" Chu Tianxing asked in confusion.

"The restaurant? That’s impossible!" Chu Xinger immediately refuted Chu Tianxing’s words. "Even if he were at the restaurant, for a powerful eighth-level Spatial Evolutionist, shuttling between Yan Long City and Yu Lin City, wouldn’t that take just a moment?"

Hearing this, Chu Tianxing nodded thoughtfully.

"However, by offending Xiao Feng this time, we might not receive any resources from him in the future," Chu Tianxing regretfully remarked.

"Huh! We can still survive without him. The world doesn’t revolve around anyone!" Chu Xinger scornfully replied.

Shortly after, Lin Wanru also arrived at Shelter No. 1. Seeing Lin Wanru, Chu Xinger immediately remembered the scene where Qin Hai and Jiang Hong were killed, intensifying her hatred towards Xiao Feng.

"Sister, I left early. How’s the situation in Yan Long City now?" Chu Xinger asked Lin Wanru.

However, because Lin Wanru had been dealing with the aftermath, she hadn’t seen the actual situation at that time. She only knew that Yan Long City had been captured, but nothing else.

"When I arrived, Yan Long City’s situation had settled. It’s just the subsequent clean-up remaining!" Lin Wanru explained.

"How about here? What’s the situation?" Chu Tianxing sighed and asked.

"Ah!" At this moment, Chu Tianxing sighed and said, "I don’t know why, but the zombies within the range of Yu Lin City have been launching coordinated attacks against us. After my investigation, I found out that while the zombies from other places around Yu Lin City still remain in those areas, they are avoiding attacking Yu Lin City and are instead coming to attack us. Do you find this odd?"

"What? This is something else?" Chu Xinger immediately stood up in shock.

"Brother, can’t you see what this is about? It must be Xiao Feng’s doing. Yu Lin City is his territory. The fact that the zombies bypass him to attack must be his hidden manipulation!" Chu Tianxing nodded and said, "I’ve thought about it, but I’ve always felt that Xiao Feng isn’t that kind of person!"
