Lee Yifann did not move. With a sword light, he killed a few Netherworld Rats. Mu Yun and the others were temporarily out of danger.
"Mu Yun, son, come here quickly! It's dangerous over there!" Ai Ze stood in the safe zone behind Lee Yifann and immediately shouted at Ai Loong and Mu Yun.
"It's Chief Ai. He's fine!" Mu Yun heaved a sigh of relief.
At this moment, a creepy scream came from the surrounding fog, followed by a dark mass of Netherworld Rats rushing towards them.
"Why are there so many Netherworld Rats?"
"Not good! They have their eyes on Chief Ai and are heading in that direction!"
The people who were fighting noticed the large number of Netherworld Rats.
Rong Biao took in a cold breath and said, "I'm afraid there are over a hundred of them! This is going to be troublesome!"
"Hurry up and save them!" Yi Xue quickly shouted at Wen Tengloong who had yet to make a move, "Master Wen, hurry up and save him!"
Wen Tengloong nodded and immediately called for people to prepare to save him.
However, in that split second, a powerful sword Qi swept away the fallen leaves like a autumn wind, instantly killing the hundreds of Netherworld Rats.
"Hmm?" Wen Tengloong, who was just about to attack, was stunned when he saw those rats being killed. He then stopped the people beside him and said, "There's no need to attack anymore. An expert has attacked!"
He raised his head and looked in a certain direction. "It's so far away. He can instantly kill so many Netherworld Rats with a single strike. What kind of strength does he have?"
Although the Netherworld Rats weren't very powerful demon beasts, they were superior in numbers. Even if it was him, he knew that with his own strength, it was impossible to kill so many Netherworld Rats in one move.
"What's the situation? All these Netherworld Rats were instantly killed?" Yi Xue was shocked.
"There was a very powerful sword qi just now. It should be an expert who attacked! But how could such a powerful expert appear in this area? " Master Jiao was puzzled.
Rong Biao frowned and thought deeply, as if he had thought of something.
It was already dark. They were in the deep mountains and forests. Most of the people had participated in the battle. Only a few people lit the lights, so they could not see what was happening around them clearly.
At this moment, Mu Yun and the others who had been rescued felt like they were in a dream.
In that instant, they had seen a young man who was too young. With just a wave of his hand, over a hundred Netherworld Rats had been buried under his sword. Such shocking strength had scared them silly.
"Thank you, master, for saving us!"
"Thank you, Master. I was able to be saved because of Master's contribution. Once this mission ends, I'll definitely seek credit from the higher-ups!"
No matter what, they were extremely grateful to Lee Yifann. Because their backs were facing Lee Yifann, they couldn't see his face clearly.
However, besides feeling grateful, they were all very annoyed. The people they invited tonight were all trash. Not only were they unable to complete the mission, they almost lost their lives.
Only when Lee Yifann turned around did they see his face clearly.
"Kacha!"
Their bodies trembled, and their expressions froze on the spot. Their mouths were wide open, and they looked as if they had seen a ghost.
Especially Mu Yun. His mouth was so wide that he could swallow an egg. He had never thought that the expert who had saved them was actually the brat he had chased away during the day.
Mu Cai'er couldn't help but roll her eyes when she saw them like this.
This time, she had lost a lot of face, right?
Let's see how you are going to end this later!
The atmosphere was awkward for a few seconds before Mu Yun's face trembled. He stammered and hesitated, "I... this expert, I hope you can forgive me for my previous offense."
Lee Yifann did not even look at him. It was equivalent to ignoring him.
This made Mu Yun even more embarrassed.
Ai Ze wasn't an idiot. He knew that Mu Yun must have offended Lee Yifann. Otherwise, he wouldn't have shown such an expression.
Ai Ze thought for a while and said, "Heavenly Master Lee, I won't interfere in the grudges between the two of you. However, after tonight's operation, the biggest credit will naturally be Heavenly Master Lee."
Lee Yifann didn't have any reaction when he heard this.
Zhai Lingyu and Mu Cai'er were speechless at the same time. The latter touched his forehead. Was this bureau chief stupid?
Would Lee Yifann be short of money?
Would he care about that little bit of credit?
What kind of joke was this? The Auction had earned tens of billions just from the fruits of the Human-Faced Ghost Tree. How could they be short of that little bit of money?
Mu Cai'er was rather speechless as she ridiculed, "Director Ai, don't think too highly of yourself. Heavenly Master Lee can easily earn tens of billions. He doesn't care about the little reward that you guys gave him. He is Qing Xue's boyfriend! "
Lee Yifann blinked and looked at her. "Where did you hear that I am Qing Xue's boyfriend?"
"Yu Lingyu said so." Mu Cai'er pointed at Zhai Lingyu who was beside her.
Lee Yifann was speechless. "We are only friends. Don't mess around with her."
"Ah? You really aren't cousin Qingxue's boyfriend?" Zhai Lingyu opened her mouth wide.
Lee Yifann was too lazy to say more.
Mu Yun and the others could not put their faces down. Only now did they know how much confusion they had made. The Heavenly Master Lee they wanted to visit was actually the Lee Yifann they did not like before.
This was too dramatic, wasn't it?
Mu Yun was so ashamed that he could not show his face. "I, I am really old and muddle-headed. Heavenly Master Lee, I have offended you!"
"Master Heavenly Master Lee is magnanimous and will not lower himself to our level. I have heard of you for a long time. Today, I see that you are indeed extraordinary!" Ai Ze complimented, his tone full of enthusiasm.
If Lee Yifann was a person who fishing for fame and reputation, he would not care so much. However, after seeing Lee Yifann's extraordinary strength just now, he knew that Yi Xue did not exaggerate at all before.
Lee Yifann looked at the two of them indifferently, then his eyes swept across everyone's faces and finally landed on Ai Loong. After a moment, he shook his head and did not say anything.
This action made some people confused.
What did this mean?
Ai Ze's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Heavenly Master Lee had something against his son?
He quickly asked carefully, "Heavenly Master Lee, could it be that my son has offended you in some way?"
"He did not offend me." Lee Yifann shook his head lightly. "He is just an idiot."
The public scolding made Ai Loong angry. He clenched his fists and looked indignant.
Lee Yifann smiled. "It looks like he doesn't feel well. As a martial artist, you can't even deal with a low level demon beast like the Netherworld Rat. You usually only care about eating, drinking, and having fun, right?"
When he attacked just now, he had noticed Ai Loong's existence. At first glance, he thought that his eyes were playing tricks on him. At that time, he was still puzzled. As a Light Enlightenment Stage warrior, Ai Loong should have no problem dealing with the Netherworld Rat. This strength was enough to ensure the safety of Mu Yun, Ai Ze, and the others, but in the end, he only cared about running away?
Wasn't this fellow's strength too weak?
But that shouldn't be the case. That day in the Auction, Ai Loong relied on a magic weapon that could resist the illusion attack and plucked three fruits from the Human-Faced Ghost Tree. The ability that he displayed was not like a timid coward.
What exactly was going on?
