Reverse flow of the Yellow Springs

Yu Bai's words revealed his extreme disgust for humans, even though he himself had human blood.

However, as a human from the forbidden zone, under the rule of the forbidden zone's order, he had long regarded the orthodox human race as enemies.

They consider themselves to be rescued, and to be people from a more advanced forbidden zone.

Humanity outside is trapped in a quagmire, and abhorrent beings who want to drag them down into the abyss as well!

This is also one of the reasons why the people of the forbidden zone are hostile to humans.

At this moment, Yu Bai said with a relieved smile, "It's truly an honor for them to have Lady Mima personally oversee the execution!"

Seemingly overly excited, a light flickered in the eye between his eyebrows, making him appear even more compassionate, yet his words carried a heavy malice.

Meiwu became the executioner, and Li Yelai and Xiao Kuangwang felt a chill in their hearts.

This was unexpected intelligence, which also meant that the assassination operation would be much more difficult for the two men.

In the original plan, Little Mad King and the Tiger Legion were to assist Li Ye in the assassination.

Because of the curse of the Enchanting Dance, those affected by it are unable to harm her due to their overwhelming love for her.

There was a night thief who once came within three meters of Meiwu, but due to the influence of love, the night thief hesitated and missed the opportunity to kill her.

Therefore, the official plan was to send various teams, none of whom had ever been in contact with the Enchanted Dance, to infiltrate the restricted area as logistical support. The assassin, however, was only Li Yelai.

Poisoning, traps, and long-range attacks were all part of the plan.

Even Meiwu probably never imagined that someone would actually be willing to hurt her.

With this mindset, Li Yelai's assassination attempt will be significantly easier. His goal is to kill her with a single blow or severely injure Meiwu.

Meanwhile, Little Mad King and his team delayed the enemy's reinforcements.

Let Li Ye deliver the final blow.

Of course, if luck is really bad and the first attack fails completely, then Li Yelai will have to try to kill Meiwu head-on.

Now, Meiwu seems to have a higher status, and her guards are much tighter. The difficulty has increased significantly.

Moreover, Meiwu was not born of a forbidden human; she was a human traitor who surrendered to the Night Watchmen of the Giant City.

Although they became angels and were given a pair of wings, they were ultimately not pure-blooded beings from the forbidden zone.

With so many angels within the forbidden zone, why was she chosen as the executioner?
Is there some inside story behind this? Or is it some kind of test?
Li Yelai thought quickly to himself, and said aloud, "Just as you said, we will definitely seize this opportunity."

Yu Bai nodded and glanced at the Little Mad King beside Li Yelai.

Under the influence of the bizarre spray, Little Mad King also exhibits characteristics of humans from forbidden zones.

Although it was not as 'pure' as Yu Bai's features, its appearance was still quite remarkable, making Yu Bai take a second look.

Yu Bai looked at Li Yelai with a half-smile and said, "If you need any help, you can come to me. You should understand what I mean. If you have a child with a divine appearance, you two won't have to work so hard hunting anymore."

Li Yelai paused for a moment before understanding what Yu Bai meant.

Humans in the forbidden zone desperately crave 'divine appearance,' which is a physical transformation that is close to that of an angel.

The more obvious the divine appearance of a person from a forbidden area, the higher their status will be. Just like this Yu Bai, he is a member of the city's knight order.

Among those in the restricted area, he holds a very high position.

They could be considered nobles among the people of the forbidden zone.

Of course, in the eyes of the creatures in the forbidden zone, he was just a second or third-class servant.

The probability of a 'divine form' appearing is similar to that of a psychic; if the parents have a high concentration of genetic material, the probability of a divine form appearing is also high.

Yu Bai meant that he could help.
Li Yelai will be given a son with divine appearance, but of course, he won't be his biological son.

The subtext is that Li Yelai should send the Little Mad King over there and then help raise the child.

This is not uncommon within the restricted area. After all, having an extra child with divine potential elevates the parents' status.

After becoming a member of the forbidden zone, they even abandoned their ethics and morals. They deserved to be corrupted by chaos!

Li Yelai sneered inwardly. If it weren't for the need to pretend, he could have slapped the head off with one blow.

On the surface, he displayed fear and hesitation: "I...I understand, sir."

Little Mad King also disguised herself very well. She lowered her head, seemingly very shy, and avoided Yu Bai's target.

This made Yu Bai suspect that the Little Mad King was playing hard to get, and he was overjoyed.

It has to be said that the Little Mad King's curse had a rare positive effect under these circumstances. Then, Yu Bai chuckled, "Then, think it over carefully."

Then, he donned a wolf pelt and rode away.

It wasn't until after he left that Little Mad King and Li Yelai regained their composure.

"I'm sorry," Li Yelai said.

"It's alright. I'm used to this kind of thing." Little Mad King said calmly, as if she wasn't the one who had just been coveted.

Her curse had long subjected her to all sorts of malicious suspicion. Even passing through a back alley, people would question her motives.
This had long since numbed her to the situation.

“You can at least complain a few times about me,” Li Yelai sighed.

"Yes, thank you. I'm fine." Little Mad King nodded slightly, then continued, "However, this is also a good thing for our infiltration. If we can infiltrate the Knights, then we can get closer to Enchanting Dance."

"Let's go into the city first and then talk about it," Li Yelai replied.

The two then continued on their way.

As they got closer to Silver Mountain City, the number of soldiers on the road increased.

You might even see angels flying overhead.

The moment the male angel with his upper body naked appeared.

Soldiers and civilians alike knelt down and worshipped the bird-man as it soared through the air.

Li Yelai and Little Mad King could only pretend to kneel and pay their respects.

Only after the angel left did everyone get up.

"It's Lord Fugu!"

"Praise be to Lord Fugu!"

"Even Lord Fugu has come, what a feast!"

The humans in the forbidden zone marveled at the discovery, and one person who found an angel feather was overjoyed and wanted to keep it as a family heirloom.

For a mere angel with the strength of a fourth-level awakening to be regarded as a god by the humans in the forbidden zone is truly a distorted form of worship.

Two hours later, they finally arrived at Silver Mountain City.

The name Silver Mountain City comes from the massive, silvery-white mountain range behind the city. The mountain shimmers with a mesmerizing light under the sun, as if the wings of an angel have gently brushed over it, casting a sacred glow that protects the entire city.

The city walls were over ten meters high, guarded by a large number of well-equipped soldiers. They wore silver armor, appearing both sacred and imposing. But considering Yu Bai, that beast who coveted other men's wives, they weren't really that sacred.
Li Yelai glanced at the knights, a cold smile playing on his lips.

The city walls are adorned with exquisitely carved angel motifs. The overall architectural style of the city leans towards Romanesque and Gothic, featuring towering spires, thick stone walls, and intricate carvings. A strong religious atmosphere permeates every corner of the city, with the church bells ringing melodiously and solemnly, as if recounting ancient legends of angels.

It was quite prosperous. Even outside the city, Li Ye could hear the vendors enthusiastically hawking their wares and see the huge church in the center of the city.

However, Li Yelai saw an unexpected group of people at the city gate of Yinshan City: the Black Source City convoy he had seen in the no-man's land before.

They had indeed come to the Heavenly Realm and arrived at this Silver Mountain City. Could it also be related to this execution?
Two white-haired giants crouched at the city gate, while heavily armored cavalry and knights guarded the carriage. This attracted a large crowd of onlookers from the forbidden area.

"Someone from the outer restricted area?"

"What a gigantic giant! Is this the extraordinary species of Black Source City?"

Who is the important person in the carriage?

"I heard he's a good friend of a certain angel."

“I heard from my uncle that they came to deliver gifts.”

"No, no, no, my uncle said they're here to form an alliance! Their master craftsman forged an unparalleled divine weapon as a symbol of this alliance!"

"After the alliance is formed, our two sides will begin trade and cooperation."

"What about the Doomsday Forest?"

"Are you going to make a deal with a wild beast?"

Well, there's a hierarchy of disdain even among the forbidden zones; they seem to look down on the Doomsday Forest.

"There really are uncles everywhere," Li Yelai thought to himself, unsure if it was really true.

The alliance did indeed concern Li Yelai. Although the possibility was slim, if an alliance were to actually form, it could lead to problems.

However, the probability is really low. The teams in the penalty area are all rivals; how could they possibly form an alliance?

Although it's hard to admit, humanity is currently powerless and hasn't been able to force the forbidden zones to the point of cooperation.

But this was clearly not a good place to gather intelligence, so Li Yelai and Little Mad King did not linger.

Instead, they produced the official document indicating their place of origin within the restricted area, handed over some restricted area currency, and successfully entered the city.

After entering the city gate, Little Mad King and Li Yelai lingered for a while on a notice board inside the gate.

This area displays advertisements for restricted areas and certain official information.

Once they were far from the city gate, Little Mad King said in a low voice, "Judging from the markings on the notices, at least three groups of night watchmen have arrived here in the past two days. Clearly, they were all attracted by the execution incident."

"Can you tell me which major city it came from?" Li Yelai asked in a low voice.

"That's unclear," Little Mad King replied. "Because of the traitors, the night scouts in each major city mostly use independent operating signals. Otherwise, if another Enchantress were to appear, the night scouts in the other major cities would all suffer."

The treason of a scout had far too terrible consequences.

The blow to their reputation was bad enough, but it also killed many of their fellow countrymen who worked as night watchmen.

Damn it!

The two then pushed the cart to a rather old two-story building next to the city wall.

This is the base that Little Mad King prepared during his last infiltration and investigation. It is also the rendezvous point for this mission.

Little Mad King reached out and knocked lightly on the door three times, then knocked harder twice before taking out a key to unlock the door.

This is a reminder to those inside the stronghold that the visitor is one of their own.

The two then pushed the cart into the house, but the lobby on the first floor was empty, which did not surprise them.

After locking the door and lighting an incense stick.

Li Yelai deactivated the psionic barrier, splashed stream water from the cart onto himself, and neutralized the effects of the strange spray.

At this moment, figures emerged from the platform on the second floor and from the corner of the lobby on the first floor.

"Night General, it's you! You actually participated in this mission? Does the captain know?" A human from the forbidden zone with a full beard looked at Li Yelai in surprise.

"Who are you?" Li Ye clicked his tongue. He couldn't recognize the other person at all.

"Oh, I almost forgot." The human from the forbidden zone pulled down his face, revealing a familiar face.

Tiger Squad, Dragon Hunter!
The human skin quickly transformed into a silver, semi-transparent mask.

"Where did you get this face mask? Is it something to avoid?" Li Yelai asked.

"What face mask? This is a psionic weapon, your Omnipotent Path ability, physical mimicry," Dragon Hunter explained with a smile.

Li Ye realized that the Skinner's ability was to peel off the target's skin and create a perfect disguise.

The other figures also appeared, revealing familiar or unfamiliar faces.

However, they warily shielded Li Yelai in the center, watching the Little Mad King, who had also gotten soaked, with suspicion.

The Little Mad King remained unmoved, standing silently as water droplets dripped from her hair, as if the expressionless girl were crying.

"Alright, everyone, let's be rational. Don't let the curse affect you," Li Yelai said, taking a towel from the cart and handing it to Little Mad King.

"Thank you." Little Mad King took the towel and dried his wet hair.

After hesitating for a moment, Long Lie and the others distanced themselves from Little Mad King, but Li Yelai sensed that they were still somewhat wary.

This is also why Little Mad King is unwilling to cooperate with others; what cooperation can be discussed under such circumstances?
Li Yelai exhaled and said to a somewhat unfamiliar night watchman, "Who are you, sir?"

A woman in her late twenties, known as Night Detective, smiled and said, "Hello, Night Detective, I am Gu Yue from the White Robe Army Group."

The White Coat Team!

"The White-Robed Army?" Li Yelai's expression changed slightly.

Gu Yue nodded with a smile.

Named after an elite ancient army, the White Robe Army of Qingzhi of the Southern Dynasty!
A legendary army of 7,000 men who, in four months, captured 32 cities and stormed into Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty!

A thousand troops and horses would flee from the white-robed army!
Another elite team from the championship team has emerged!
To assassinate Meiwu, Captain Yang Chen actually dispatched two elite Night Scouts! That's quite a move!

They are all level 5 experts, and their excellent teamwork is enough to kill level 6 transcendent beings or psionicists. They are the backbone of the champion team.

"So, in other words, we now have ten elite Night Watchers at the fifth level, a captain-level expert who is the strongest assassin in the giant city, and me, a mere fourth-level newbie?" Li Yelai stroked his chin. "So many people entertaining a Meiwu, she's really living the dream."

“If it weren’t for her curse, she would have died long ago.” Long Lie and Gu Yue nodded with smiles, but their smiles quickly faded.

"You should have received the message I left, right?"

"How should we proceed with the execution three days from now?"

"The fact that the restricted area openly announced the execution of three night watchmen was intended to lure out the rest of the night watchmen within the restricted area."

"If we don't save them, we can only watch helplessly as our comrades are slaughtered by the creatures of the forbidden zone!"

"Save them, they may have already laid a trap. We might lose even more people."

"This was a calculated move against us from the start!" (End of Chapter)
