Chapter 360: 361: It's My Incompetence!



“Don’t worry, do I look like that kind of person? Flames will only scorch the battlefield and won’t involve the human race, I have my own sense of measure,” Li Xiaobai glanced at her and said indifferently.

“Giggle, boy, you don’t just look like that kind of person—you are that kind of person!”

“If you ask me, just burn the entire border in one go, with those invincible flames of yours, what City Lord, what Flesh Mountain, all should be wiped out in one fell swoop!” Ji Wuqing popped her head out from Li Xiaobai’s chest, excitedly yelling.

“Get lost, this concerns the great undertakings of the human race, the safety of the Mainland, what does a broken chicken like you know!”

Li Xiaobai casually pushed Ji Wuqing to the side and then, stepping on the gas, his Lamborghini zoomed away.

Now Hellfire was no longer weak; it just needed to leave behind a seed of fire to slowly grow stronger without worrying about being extinguished.

There weren’t many cultivators in the west. By the time it was discovered, the flames would have already taken hold, and by then, it would be impossible to extinguish them.

The sports car raced along, heading toward the assembly point.

The so-called battlefield cleanup didn’t last long, as the cultivators just killed a few straggling Flesh Mountains that showed signs of crossing the border, and there was no large-scale battle.

When Li Xiaobai returned to the vicinity of the warship, most of the team had already returned.

The two senior brothers had been waiting at the bow of the ship from early on.

“How was it, I told you, how could a hero like Brother Li run into trouble, coming back so late must mean you’ve achieved a great victory!”

Yang Chen laughed heartily, looking at Cai Kunxu with an implied meaning.

“Heh, who knows if he really cleaned up the Flesh Mountain, I’ve seen plenty of such heroes, marching into battle high and mighty, but when it comes to the actual battlefield, they all turn into cowards. This guy is spotless from head to toe, he didn’t just loiter around and come back, did he?”

A cultivator sneered at the side, completely disdainful of Li Xiaobai.

In their eyes, a hero needing a personal guard was like a flower in a greenhouse.

And this personal guard was specifically for protecting City Lords, so what was it about following someone else?

“Shut up, Young Master Li is a hero, and with my personal guard helping, he naturally won’t have any problems. Just now I was merely speaking offhand, please don’t take it personally,” Cai Kunxu stopped the cultivator’s words.

A trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, not understanding why Li Xiaobai returned safely—had his own men made a mistake?

However, his face still wore a full smile as he went to greet him.

“I’m relieved to see Young Master Li return safely, but where is my personal guard?” Cai Kunxu said with a chuckle, scanning the area around Li Xiaobai and saw no one other than Yang Huan and a broken bird.

A bad feeling surged in his heart.

“City Lord, I have let you down!”

Li Xiaobai’s expression suddenly changed, filled with grief and indignation.

“What happened?”

Cai Kunxu asked, his voice trembling slightly.

“We mistakenly entered the core area on the battlefield. The brothers fought valiantly in the Flesh Mountain to protect me, and as a result, I’m the only one who survived the whole team. I have let down these iron-blooded men!”

Li Xiaobai’s face was etched with a grief so profound that it seemed undeniably real.

To the side, Yang Huan and Ji Wuqing wore peculiar expressions. Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they might have actually believed him, it had to be said, Li Xiaobai was truly a natural-born actor.

“What did you say, my personal guard squad, none survived?”

Cai Kunxu’s pupils contracted, as that elite squad had taken him quite some time and resources to build. They were a trump card on the battlefield, and it was not so easy to cultivate another squad like that.

“Yes, it’s all my fault. If only I had been more resolute back then and urged my brothers to leave first, it wouldn’t have come to this!”

Li Xiaobai nodded, his face full of desolation.

Cai Kunxu’s complexion turned green, his eyes bloodshot. He knew Li Xiaobai was outright lying.

Dammit, that elite squad was sent out specifically to kill you, how could they possibly have fought Flesh Mountain to their last breath?

Besides, you’re dressed all bright and shiny, not even a speck of dust on you, where’s the sign of having fought a bloody battle?

He suspected that his own elite squad had all been killed by Li Xiaobai.

He had to admit, he had underestimated his opponent. This genius was not as easy to handle as he had thought, and a Binding Pill had failed to make him surrender.

He had taken a huge loss this time, and annoyingly, Cai Kunxu couldn’t say much about it. The mission was assigned by him, the people were sent by him, and the elite squad had died to protect Li Xiaobai—in the eyes of others, they were heroes. What could he possibly say?

“If trading their lives could secure Young Master Li’s safety, their deaths were not in vain. Young Master Li, please do not grieve too much, I will take care of their families.”

Cai Kunxu, fighting the urge to kill Li Xiaobai, managed a smile uglier than crying.

“Indeed, in life, some are as light as a feather, others as heavy as Mount Tai. Without a doubt, these heroes, were all as heavy as Mount Tai!”

“Some people are better off dead, while others, though dead, will live forever.”

“I believe these people will always live in our hearts, and we will always remember them!”

Li Xiaobai nodded as well, speaking earnestly, almost convincing himself.

Indeed, the highest realm of deception is to hypnotize oneself first.

“Young Master Li is immensely talented. These heroes will forever live in people’s hearts. I will erect a monument and share their deeds!”

Bloodshot threads crisscrossed Cai Kunxu’s eyes, as he squeezed a few words through his clenched teeth, nearly exploding in anger. Damn it, this Li Xiaobai was truly getting too presumptuous, this was a deadly provocation!

“In future actions, please keep up with the team, Young Master Li. I will protect you.”

Cai Kunxu said, a flash of sharpness in his eyes.

“Of course, of course, I won’t run around anymore.”

Li Xiaobai nodded earnestly.

Cai Kunxu left to calm himself down, as he was likely to lose control and slap Li Xiaobai to death otherwise.

The atmosphere at the prow of the warship was oppressive. The surrounding cultivators dared not speak carelessly, as it was apparent to everyone that Cai Kunxu was in an extremely foul mood.

The cultivators who previously sneered at Li Xiaobai had a glint of satisfaction in their eyes. They had been right; Li Xiaobai was nothing but a greenhouse flower, and he had even led to the death of Cai Kunxu’s personal guard. This was no small vendetta.

Yang Chen and Ling Feng struggled to contain the laughter in their hearts. They understood that Cai Kunxu’s attempt to covertly harm had backfired spectacularly, with their junior brother coming back unscathed, having thwarted the opposing elite forces.

Quite the strategy indeed.

At the prow, Xiong Da announced loudly, “Let’s discuss this minor incident later. We have ascertained that the source of the flames is at the periphery of the frontier. Everyone, follow me!”

“Yes!”
