Chapter 1346: Chapter 1341: To Wear the Crown, One Must Bear Its Weight

"I’m going! Where did the person go?"

"What person?"

"There was someone here who just disappeared, don’t believe me? Ask them, they all saw it."

"Yes, yes, yes, someone suddenly appeared from the side, holding a stick, ran over here and then just vanished."

"What’s going on?"

"I think we might have stumbled upon some secrets of this world?"

"That’s not much of a big deal, but how come the person just vanished?"

"Where did that foreigner go?"

"Could it be a spatial crack? Did that foreigner travel to another world?"

"Ma De, that’s ridiculous!"

Next to Tang Ye, people began to gather, their faces filled with intense curiosity. If someone suddenly disappeared right in front of them, the whole scene where the person just vanished, anyone would inevitably let their thoughts run wild, the spectacle was just too eerie.

However, although they couldn’t see themselves, the crowd of people rushing over still made Tang Ye frown.

Soon, he shifted his gaze; the Level 8 New Human in front of him seemed bewitched, kept repeating three words, "Why!"

"Why! Why? You clearly could have done so..."

"Stop freaking yelling, make a choice, where does Xi Qing live?"

Hearing Tang Ye’s words, the other’s legs involuntarily buckled, but Tang Ye locked them in place, his body showing no sign of strain, he yelled out, "I’ll tell! Xi Qing lives at Block 39, Qidong Road, T73 area of Shanhe, with her son."

"Block? Woah, that’s quite a living space."

"She is a member of the court, a Level 6 New Human, you don’t need to worry about the trouble she could cause you. I beg you, spare me, I want to live, as long as you let me live, from today onwards, I will follow your lead at the Cloud Gorge Base, you... you can have anything you want, and I will be your most loyal servant!"

The moment he guessed that Tang Ye was a Level 9 New Human, his attitude made a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree turn!

He fully realized what a Level 9 New Human represented at the Cloud Gorge Base! It was a sign of all Level 8 New Humans being exterminated and a symbol of all humanity unifying!

Following him, even if just as a servant, but with the emergence of a Level 9 New Human, he would be among those who benefitted the most in the council, even if his interests were damaged! But as long as he was alive! That was the greatest gain!

Cloud Gorge Base, just short of a Level 9 New Human!

This was the only thought in his mind, but as soon as the words left his mouth, he heard the cold words coming from Tang Ye’s mouth.

"Want to live? It’s not impossible, but your actions just now, I think you’ve already made your choice, and there’s no regret medicine in this world."

Tang Ye shook his head, his words sounding like the whisper of a reaper, already destined to harvest the soul!

"No! No, please! Don’t! Let me live and follow you, there won’t be any harm! I can solve many things for you while I’m alive! No! Many, many things!"

"Ah, but I don’t need it."

Tang Ye’s words chilled him to the core. He didn’t dare to look into the other’s eyes, keeping his head down, but there was never an opportunity to raise his head again. A finger plunged into his brain as effortlessly as it would into tofu, bringing excruciating pain!

As a smear of purple appeared, the world before his eyes seemed to be covered with a mosaic, everything becoming extremely blurred, then the world was enveloped in darkness, and he could no longer see anything, a Level 8 New Human Powerhouse’s body went limp, life extinguishing, his existence no longer had any relation to him.

Tang Ye let go of him, and the corpse quickly slumped down.

He looked at the wide-open eyes of the corpse—those were unyielding even in death.

After looking for a while, Tang Ye suddenly shook his head, seemingly talking to himself, "If it were before, I might still be interested. Dictators, after all, aren’t that different from an Emperor, and it seems no one would want to refuse. But now..."

He paused, recalling all that Su Sigui had revealed to him, and he finally spoke out, "To wear the crown, one must bear its weight. Power is very tempting, but if the responsibility that comes with it exceeds the power, I’d rather have nothing at all. You were right about one thing earlier—I don’t like trouble, especially not like this, when the hassle far exceeds what I am willing to tolerate."

Turning his head, Tang Ye’s gaze was directed toward the distance.

"Where did Su Sigui go?"

Then, Tang Ye left the place, while the surrounding people seemed to treat it as some kind of transport point, searching excitedly for something that could activate this "transport point."

But soon, everyone at the scene shuddered as two bodies suddenly appeared in many perspectives, their heads had a hole, hollow and empty inside.

"This is..."

"It’s Lu Xike and Wu Long!"

"Those two... but they were Level 8 New Humans!"

"The person just now, looked like Lu Xike, he just disappeared here, how did he die?"

"Let’s go!"

"Quick, leave!"

The excitement in people’s eyes instantly turned into fear. Two Level 8 New Humans died mysteriously here; how could they dare to linger? Level 8 New Humans had died without knowing how, and their bodies appeared too bizarrely—previously there was nothing, and now two bodies appeared, both Level 8 New Humans!

Something was definitely off.

Someone took a photo with their phone and uploaded it to the internet, but later, it became known that today, not only Lu Xike and Wu Long, two Level 8 New Humans had died, but two other renowned Level 8 New Humans named Ji Nanyang and Mei Zhongyu also perished at the hands of Li Henian’s men, both fell under the attack of several Level 8 Powerhouses and Level 8 zombies, their Evolution Crystal Cores already removed.

Within a single day, four Level 8 New Humans had died, causing a huge stir online!

...

The door swung open, revealing a man’s figure; he sighed in relief upon seeing the woman at the door: "Meng Yun, you’re back, is everything all right?"

"Nothing’s wrong," the woman named Meng Yun shook her head and stepped inside, the man then closed the door behind her.

Inside was a courtyard, neither too large nor too small, filled with a group of children and a few adults, among them, apart from the man who had opened the door for her, were others like Sugiyama Ryoko, the girl Yi Huangcheng was searching for, and Long Yingjia. The skin colors of the adults and children here varied, with Black people, White people, Japanese people, and Chinese people.

Upon seeing her enter, the children immediately cheered and swarmed toward her.
