Night of Fright

Fish Ball Guy and Zhong Shuman hadn't expected Li Yintong to still be there. They'd just been about to greet her when they heard Taimai's remark, and it left them speechless.

To be honest, they were already miserable after taking such a terrible hit at the talk show. Now they'd been blindsided by another blow, and all they could manage was a wry smile.

"This one's on me!"

Fish Ball Guy had the decency to take responsibility. When he saw Lin Baici and the others coming out of the café, he hurried over to meet them.

"Lin God, we really should've listened to you this time!"

Fish Ball Guy started lamenting from a distance, making it clear in every word that he was praising Lin Baici.

Losing a couple of fingers or an arm wasn't a big deal. As long as they were alive, the Pavilion Master could heal them. What had really shaken Fish Ball Guy was the blow to his confidence.

"Lin God, tell me honestly. Did you 'see' something?"

You made your decision based on your sixth sense?

Even a child wouldn't believe that kind of nonsense.

"No!"

Lin Baici wasn't about to admit it.

Zhong Shuman looked crestfallen and had no interest in speaking.

Losing an arm would put her at a huge disadvantage in the Rule Pollution to come.

They were probably finished this time!

"How many are still alive?"

Xia Hongyao asked curiously, glancing toward the entrance of the Virtue Club.

Takeuchi Kurano came out with six subordinates.

He looked a little worn out, but he wasn't injured.

"Less than a third!"

Fish Ball Guy smiled bitterly. Some people hadn't even left behind an intact corpse.

Takeuchi Kurano walked over and stopped, looking at Lin Baici and the others with a gloomy, awkward expression.
