“All… 36 kingdoms… All their dead spirits have become evil…” Luo Puti stuttered.

The Black Desert really was a terrifying place.

Luo Puti would not have believed it if it was someone else who told her that.

But because it was Chen Xiaobei who said it, Luo Puti believed it a hundred percent. She knew that Chen Xiaobei had the Yin Yang Eye. Yin Qi evil spirits would not escape sight!

“The people of Xijiang said that this place has been abandoned by the G.o.ds and taken over by demons! It looks like they were right!” Luo Puti exhaled sharply.

Chen Xiaobei nodded. “Yeah, I don’t understand why your parents would come to such a place like this.”

“I don’t know either.” Luo Puti shook her head. “But I have found some really solid evidence. I am very sure that my parents came to the Black Desert! I must find them no matter what it takes!”

“Alright. But stick to the rules. You’ll remain at the end of the group. No matter what happens, don’t come to the front!” Chen Xiaobei instructed.

“Alright! I promise you!” Luo Puti nodded. “You must be careful yourself too. Don’t try to act tough when you know that you are going to lose the fight! I don’t want anything to happen to you!”

“Haha! Okay!” Chen Xiaobei smiled, warmth filling his heart.

Chen Xiaobei then walked to the front of the expedition group.

“Master Zhou! Let me lead the rest of the journey.” Chen Xiaobei said.

“You? Lead? Why so sudden?” Zhou Xiaokun frowned, his eyes clouded with disgust.

Zhou Xiaokun was not only the young master of Kunlun Faction, he was also the one who proposed this expedition, and had been leading the troop since the beginning!

Now that the Black Desert was within sight, Chen Xiaobei asking for the reigns most certainly irk him.

“Because I can lead everyone to find water within the shortest amount of time!” Chen Xiaobei answered.

“The Black Desert is near. By the time we get there, there will be ruins everywhere! It’ll be as easy as ABC to find water!” Zhou Xiaokun said. “It’s better if I continue to take lead. I have done my research on the deserts. I’m confident I can find a water source!”

The others nodded.

“Mr. Chen! We know you are trying to help, but elder s.h.i.+xiong has really done a lot of serious research for this expedition. He understands the desert better than you, so it’ll be easier for him to find water!”

“Yeah! Mr. Chen, just let elder s.h.i.+xiong lead! Our bodies are their breaking point. We cannot endure any further delays!”

“Chen Xiaobei! Trust elder s.h.i.+xiong. He’s very good at this!”

The group piled on, trying to coax Chen Xiaobei out of the thought.

Chen Xiaobei’s medical skills may have been incredible but when it comes to navigating the desert, they trusted Zhou Xiaokun more.

Upon hearing his people’s comments, Zhou Xiaokun raised his chin. “Mr. Chen, did you hear that? Everyone has agreed that I should lead. Return to your position at the back and follow me. I won’t let everyone down!”

“You really won’t?” Chen Xiaonbei shrugged. “Let me just be honest with you, the direction you’re leading us towards is wrong. If we continue on, we won’t be able to find the ruins today!”

“Erm, Mr. Chen. Can you quit messing around?” Zhou Xiaokun laughed mockingly. “No one has ever been to this desert! Just because you think that it’s wrong, it’s wrong? Just because you say we won’t find it and we won’t? Do you seriously think that this is some garden in your house?”

“Enough! Don’t bother talking rubbish with him. Everyone, continue to follow Master Zhou!” Ding Ding’ao cut in.

Chen Xiaobei could not be bothered to argue with them. “I’ve already given you my suggestion. Since you refuse to believe me, then so be it. From now on, my wife and I are officially leaving the group! You can all follow Master Zhou to the so-called right path. We are both going to go my way! I hope we won’t see each other again anytime soon!”

Chen Xiaobei turned around to leave.

He had offered his help in goodwill but was given the cold shoulder instead!

Since these bunch were so ungrateful, Chen Xiaobei could not be bothered to waste his precious time on them! He could save so much more time and energy searching for the ruins with Luo Puti alone.

When they saw that Chen Xiaobei was about to leave, the group panicked.

There really was something special about Chen Xiaobei.

When Ding Ding’ao refused to listen to Chen Xiaobei noon yesterday, he had lost his right arm.

And now that Chen Xiaobei had spoken his mind again and was even planning to leave the group.

When they measure the two and two together, they began to feel fearful.

Would there be dire consequences for refusing to listen to Chen Xiaobei?

“Mr. Chen! Please hold on!” Zhuo Qunfeng called out.

Out of everyone else, Zhou Qunfeng knew Chen Xiaobei better. Although he did not have much background information on Chen Xiaobei, his grandfather Zhuo Yaolong insisted that Chen Xiaobei was extraordinary and instructed Zhuo Qunfeng to be on good terms with Chen Xiaobei.

“What is it, Master Zhuo?” Chen Xiaobei asked.

“I don’t want Mr. Chen to leave us!” Zhuo Qunfeng said, “I’ll come with you! If you really find water, I will shoot up the flare gun to signal to them to come over. Likewise, if elder s.h.i.+xiong finds the water first, they will signal to inform us! That way, we get to double our chances of finding water!”

Chen Xiaobei shrugged and said, “I don’t mind. Saving people is considered an act of kindness; so to those who do not wish to die of thirst, you can follow me!”

But no one else wanted to follow Chen Xiaobei. They still believed that Zhou Xiaokun was a more reliable guide.

Zhuo Qunfeng’s suggestion was very well thought out. If Chen Xiaobei really did find the water first, they could all rush over at Zhuo Qunfeng’s signal.

That way, there would be no delay for either of the groups. Hence, their immediate instinct was to still follow Zhou Xiaokun.

“Alright then. Let’s split up here!” When he saw that he had the majority’s support, Zhou Xiaokun was even more pleased with himself. “Mr. Chen, I suggest that you walk slower! You will see our signal very soon! That way, the journey back around won’t be too far off.”

Chen Xiaobei did not react to the snide remark. He merely shrugged and said, “I hope all of you die of thirst halfway there.”

He then returned to the back of the group, called Luo Puti and headed towards the other direction.

“F*ck! This b.a.s.t.a.r.d is really conceited!” Ding Ding’ao abhorred Chen Xiaobei. “How dare he curse us?! When we find water later, I won’t give him a single drop!”

“What if Mr. Chen finds water first?” w.a.n.g Mengyu asked feebly.

“Impossible! I know Master Zhou! If that b.a.s.t.a.r.d finds water first, I livestream a video of me eating faeces!” Ding Ding’ao growled.

“I will find the water source first!” Zhou Xiaokun said confidently. “Let’s not waste time! Let’s go!”
