f here."But remember this, from now on you're not allowed to come here and collect protection money again. Otherwise, I'll beat you up every time I see you. Remember that""Remember, we remember."A few...In just under half an hour, Wei Li had consecutively cast nearly a hundred fireballs, incinerating countless ants. The air was thick with the peculiar stench of burning flesh.
But these ants seemed endless, burning a batch only to have more arrive to replenish them, their attack showing no signs of weakening.
Slowly, Future's face began to pale. The speed of his spellcasting slowed, the fireballs he released grew smaller, and his hands started to tremble slightly. This was a sign of magical exhaustion.
At this moment, the people around him grew tense once more. It was then they realized that a cultivator's power wasn't infinite, like gasoline, it would eventually run out.
Once the future collapses, these people will still not escape death and will eventually become food for ants.
Ye Bufan patted the future's shoulder: "Alright, take a rest."
"Brother Ye, I can still hold on."
Her future face, though young, was full of stubbornness.
She thought Ye Bufan was just a martial artist, and a martial artist would be obviously at a disadvantage against an ant swarm.
Ye Bufan said, "There's no need to be so tired, I'm here, nothing will happen."
Novicksi said irritably, "Kid, what time is it You're still pretending"
He didn't think Ye Bufan had any way to solve the ants in front of him. He was just a doctor, no matter how high his medical skills were, what could he do Was he going to take the pulse of those ants
Ye Bufan glanced at him with disdain: "I'm not like you, I never talk big."
Novitski's face flushed red, "Let's not boast. Look at those ants coming again. I'll see how you handle them..."
He was mid-sentence when suddenly, as if struck by a spell, he froze in place, his face contorted with shock and fear.
I saw two flames suddenly shoot out from Ye Bufan's eyes, and after landing on the ground, they immediately spread like a carpet.
Unlike the fireballs of old, these flames seemed endless, unbound by the limitations of a hundred-meter radius. They surged forward like an unstoppable tide, quickly consuming all ants in their path.
Now everyone present was stunned, including Phily, Novitzky, and the guards.
Sophia's eyes widened in shock, as if she had seen an alien.
The most shocking thing was the future. As the saying goes, outsiders watch the excitement while insiders look at the doorway, she immediately saw the extraordinary nature of this spell.
"Brother Ye, are you a Saint-Order cultivator"
She never would have imagined that Ye Ge was both a martial arts and magical cultivator, reaching the realm of a Saint-ranked mage.
A spark flashed in Ye Bufan's eyes, his Lì Huǒ Zhī Yǎn transforming into two flickering flames concealed within his pupils.
"So-so, it's nothing special."
For Ye Bufan, this wasn't much of a concern. After reaching the Saint Realm, he could use heaven and earth's vital energy to cast spells, consuming far less spiritual power than Spell Masters.
As long as he is willing, he can use the Eye of Departure for three days and three nights.
Nowitzki swallowed nervously, his face flushed, unsure what to say.
From the moment they met, he looked down on Ye Bufan from the bottom of his heart. The other party was just a small doctor and didn't deserve the high treatment given by the Lawrence family at all.
Even after several provocations, Ye Bufan didn't react too much. This made him think even more that he was weak.
Only now do I realize that they were never weak, but rather contemptuous.
He, a Heaven Rank martial artist, was nothing in front of a Saint Rank cultivator. As long as the latter wished, they could obliterate him at any time.
At that moment, a guard suddenly shouted, “Look, the ants have all retreated.”
Following the direction of their fingers, they saw that in the moonlight, the ants were retreating like the tide, soon disappearing into the forest as if they had never been there.
"My God, these damn demons are finally gone."
Those guards finally let go of their tension, and a few whose psychological fortitude was weaker couldn't bear such immense pressure, collapsing directly onto the ground.
"Doctor Ye, I was wrong before. I formally apologize to you."
Novitski walked up to Ye Bufan and bowed deeply.
As a Heavenly Rank martial artist, he was proud but also knew how to respect the strong. After seeing Ye Bufan's cultivation base, he immediately bowed his head and apologized.
"Alright, the past is in the past." Ye Bufan waved his hand casually and then said to everyone present, "The danger has passed, everyone take some time to rest. We have a long road ahead of us tomorrow."
Next, Novikov began organizing the camp, dividing his 9 guards into 3 shifts to take turns on watch.
After the previous incident, they dared not be even slightly careless. In this perilous place, who knew what kind of crisis might arise in the next second.
Fei Li looked at Ye Bufan, her eyes filled with many complex emotions. Just as she was about to step forward, Sophia walked over first.
"Hey handsome, how did you just do that Was that a special ability too"
Ye Bufan smiled faintly: “You said so.”
"I didn't expect you to have such skills, it's truly admirable." Sophia then regretfully shook her head. "If our team had someone as strong as you, we wouldn't be in this situation."
"Alright, it's getting late. You should get some rest."
Ye Bufan said, turning and entering his own tent.
They brought a very ample supply of materials this time, with two people equipped with one tent. Future and Phili are both women, so according to the previous arrangement, they will sleep in one tent.
Now that there's Sophia, the tent is a bit cramped. We can't have three women squeezed into one small tent.
"Hey handsome, mind if I squeeze in next to you"
Sophia, without waiting for Ye Bufan's reply, immediately dove into his tent and lay down beside him.
This took everyone by surprise, but Novikov and the others pretended not to notice.
If they had known beforehand, they would have been consumed by jealousy, but after learning that Ye Bufan was a Saint-Rank powerhouse, they didn't even have the courage to be jealous.
His expression in the future didn't change much, and he bowed his head and crawled into the tent.
For some reason, a strange sense of sourness suddenly welled up in Phili's heart. Sophia sleeping in the same tent with Ye Bufan made her extremely uncomfortable.
What's going on Could it be that I've fallen for Dr. Ye
Due to a family curse, she hadn't had a boyfriend, but that didn't mean she was stupid. She was very clear about the matters of love between men and women.
But she quickly startled herself, hurrying to banish the thought from her mind. She couldn't like anyone before the curse was lifted.
Inside the tent, Ye Bufan didn't react at all. He neither welcomed Sophia nor asked her to leave. Instead, he closed his eyes and began to rest as if nothing had happened.
Sophia lay there for a while, noticing that the other person wasn't reacting at all. She couldn't help but say, "Hey, don't you think I'm pretty"
Ye Bufan didn't move, spitting out three words: "Still possible."
Sophia was furious. She was a beautiful woman, wasn't she To be described as "just okay" by him was insulting.
"Hey handsome, don't you like women"
"Like."
Then you don't have any ideas about me
Ye Bufan said very decisively, "No."
“You, my friend, must be made of glass.”
Sophia said through gritted teeth.
She had originally planned to flirt with Ye Bufan, trying to get some secrets out of him. Now, she could only give up on that idea.n, a yellowish sheet of paper was revealed, upon which were inscribed four ancient characters: "Recipe for the Hundred Beasts Elixir".Ye Bufan was intrigued and continued to flip through the pages. I...
