Capítulo 2102: Chapter 2099: The Visitors Have Malicious Intent!

Lin Bai heard the mocking and scolding voices around him, and a layer of frost and anger appeared on his face.

If Lin Bai truly possessed the means to conceal and had a Martial Soul, he would surely enter the scout camp, but Lin Bai didn’t!

Besides being a bit more skilled in swordsmanship, Lin Bai had no other strengths.

If he really had to use speed-based martial techniques, if the flying sword were still with him, Lin Bai would not fear.

But now the flying sword has been taken by Li Jiuge, Lin Bai cannot use the sword-controlling skill!

Lin Bai remained silent, his face filled with a dark aura.

Zhang Lingkong, beside Lin Bai, seeing him being blamed by everyone, couldn’t help but say, “Did none of you hear it? Lin Bai said he doesn’t have those skills. You just listened to Zhu Jingyi’s few words and turned against Lin Bai. Do you think that’s appropriate?”

“Humph, you say Lin Bai is afraid of death, then what about you? Among the over two thousand warriors here, I don’t believe none of you possesses speed and concealment-type Martial Souls!”

“Since none of you are willing to go, why should Lin Bai go?”

Zhang Lingkong said angrily.

“Humph, if you’re afraid of death, just admit it, don’t argue here!”

“Exactly, you’re just spouting nonsense!”

“Arguing? It’s truly ridiculous!”

The surrounding warriors sneered coldly.

“You all!” Zhang Lingkong was about to continue speaking.

“Alright, Zhang Lingkong, let it be,” Lin Bai said expressionlessly at this moment.

Zhang Lingkong looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai smiled faintly and said to Zhu Jingyi, “Isn’t it just that you want me to go to the scout camp? I will go.”

Zhu Jingyi smiled slightly, his demeanor full of smugness.

Lin Bai at this moment laughed coldly and said, “But Zhu Jingyi, I have a word to give you here!”

Zhu Jingyi asked curiously, “What word?”

Lin Bai chuckled lightly, “From today onward, consider your head as temporarily resting on your shoulders; I’ll come and take it one day!”

Zhu Jingyi smiled coldly, without replying.

At this moment, Yang Ying said, “Alright, since Lin Bai has agreed to join the scout camp, someone take Lin Bai, prepare, and follow other scouts to depart for Nanxi City.”

After speaking, a warrior led Lin Bai away.

Lin Bai left with a serious expression.

This warrior brought Lin Bai to a secluded small courtyard.

Lin Bai entered the courtyard and found that there were five people inside; however, at this moment, three of them were heavily injured, struggling even to move, while the remaining two had minor injuries.

Seeing Lin Bai come in, these two stood up and looked at Lin Bai.

At this time, the warrior who brought Lin Bai here said blandly, “Chen Hu, this person is the new scout, prepare, and set out together soon!”

One of the black-clothed warriors nodded with a somber expression, “Yes.”

Lin Bai cupped his hands and smiled, “I am Lin Bai!”

The black-clothed middle-aged man cupped his hands and said, “I am Chen Hu, the captain of the scout camp!”

Lin Bai smiled, “Brother Chen Hu, it seems the scout camp is quite damaged.”

Chen Hu smiled bitterly, “The Demon Clan’s abilities are far stronger than ours; we didn’t even get close to Nanxi City before being discovered by them. We sent over fifty people, and only the five of us returned!”

“The remaining three are heavily injured!”

“Only my Junior Brother Liang Qian and I are slightly better.”

After Chen Hu said this, the other lightly injured warrior cupped his hands and said, “Junior Brother Lin Bai.”

Lin Bai cupped his hands, “Greetings, Senior Brother Liang Qian.”

Chen Hu and Liang Qian were warriors at the Fourth Level of the Life-and-Death Realm, not very strong.

Liang Qian said, “The remaining scouts no longer possess combat abilities, even their movement is extremely difficult, so the next task might be left to us three to complete.”

Lin Bai nodded slightly, “When will we set out?”

Chen Hu said, “Originally, if no scout came today, my Junior Brother Liang Qian and I planned to set out at dusk. Now that Junior Brother Lin Bai has arrived, we shall depart immediately.”

Lin Bai took a deep breath and said, “Alright!”

Immediately, the three prepared to leave the small courtyard.

At this time, the warrior who had brought Lin Bai to the small courtyard returned, with four other warriors in tow!

“Wait, Chen Hu, there are four more here!”

The warrior called out.

Chen Hu’s face showed slight joy.

Lin Bai raised his head and saw among the four people, there was a familiar figure.

“Zhang Lingkong?” Lin Bai frowned and called out.

Zhang Lingkong walked to Lin Bai’s side with a somber expression.

Lin Bai curiously asked, “Why are you here?”

Zhang Lingkong said gloomily, “Just because I spoke a few words on your behalf earlier; Zhu Jingyi said I also knew concealment techniques, and Yang Ying sent me to the scout camp directly!”

Lin Bai smiled bitterly, “Sorry, got you involved.”

Zhang Lingkong shook his head, “What are you saying? Anyway, we’re here to kill Demon Beasts and to practice cultivation, going to the scout camp is also cultivation.”

“By the way, be careful of the three over there!”

“Those three are Zhu Jingyi’s men!”

Lin Bai looked up and saw the three young men smiling coldly at him, their cultivation surpassed Lin Bai and Chen Hu, all three were at the Fifth Level of the Life-and-Death Realm.

“Not friendly at all.”

Seeing the cold smiles on the three faces, a flash of killing intention appeared in Lin Bai’s eyes.

Chen Hu said with slight joy, “With three warriors at the Fifth Level of the Life-and-Death Realm joining us, the success rate of our mission will definitely be significantly boosted. Hence, we should depart immediately.”

Chen Hu was the captain of the scout camp and had been to Nanxi City before, naturally more familiar than anyone else, so Lin Bai also did not refute his words.

Immediately, a group of people left Tide City.

Chen Hu and Liang Qian were old comrades, leading in the front.

Following them were the three people beside Zhu Jingyi, and Lin Bai knew their names, Litian Ying, Kong Qi, and Gao Yunhua.

Finally came Lin Bai and Zhang Lingkong.

While traveling, Chen Hu said, “Although our group is small, it also has its advantages, the fewer people, the smaller the chance of being discovered by the Demon Clan.”

“Our goal this time is to investigate the Demon Clan’s garrison in Nanxi City, as well as the location of other captured warriors!”

“If possible, inform them that in half a month, the other six major cities will launch a counterattack, letting them coordinate internally and externally to retake Nanxi City together!”

Chen Hu briefly explained.

But Chen Hu’s words were only carefully listened to by Lin Bai and Zhang Lingkong.

As for Litian Ying, Kong Qi, and others, they snickered, not paying any attention, as if they were not here as scouts but with other intentions!
