Chapter 687: Tactical Retrea (2/2)

Handled?! By whom?! I’ve never heard about a formidable expert choosing this route!

This made them nervous. There were many roads to their final destination and no one wanted to cross a tough opponent before reaching the final stage as it did no good for either side.

Soon, the group arrived at the battlefield. The dozens of ‘bald’ monster corpses were almost covered by snow, which also erased all traces of fighting.

This was fortunate for the newly arrived group. Otherwise, if they were to find clues hinting that this group of monsters had been ‘killing each other,’ they might lose the courage to move on.

“There’s no obvious trauma, but their internal organs are damaged evenly. It seems that the killer is a very special puppet master.” The leader came to this conjecture with an ugly face. To be able to kill all of these difficult monsters by themselves, the person ahead of them would definitely be a huge obstacle that was at least an Exquisite Rank expert!

Reality proved that sometimes seemingly logical inferences might not be correct…

For example, this poor leader.

“Everyone scatter. We’ll continue to act as guildless adventurers and keep a low profile. Do not make unnecessary trouble! Before we find out who this expert is, the goal is to keep yourselves safe!“

After a series of commands, the two dozen people quickly dispersed before heading towards the depths of the snowy mountain…

While this group of people was worrying about an imaginary opponent, Bai Xiaofei’s group had already crossed the valley area and returned to the temporary town outside. Fortunately, they did not run into Bryne and avoided a lot of trouble.

Returning to the inn, the triplets once again holed up, determined not to step out of the door. Meanwhile, Bai Xiaofei used this rare rest time in the trading area. Although there was no special situation this time, the seeds he had planted the last time could be harvested today.

When Bai Xiaofei shouted he wanted to buy white puppets, a myriad of people rushed over and surrounded him. They had been waiting for him for too long! Refusing no one, his temporary storage bracelet borrowed from Leng Liuli was almost filled up.

Looking at the mountain of white puppets inside, he sighed in relief. This should be enough for a while.

Suddenly, Bai Xiaofei looked troubled. In fact, even if more people came wanting to sell, he couldn’t afford it. Just now, he had given out his last Amethyst Coin…

That’s right, he had spent every last penny.

Over 10 million Amethyst Coins was his entire pocket money. Originally, he had felt that he’d never be able to spend 10 million, so when Feng Wuhen suggested giving him more, he refused.

Now it seemed that he had thought too little. After ‘gifting’ Cang Lan and buying the formation base, he had fallen directly from rich to broke due to having no clear idea of money…

However, there was one thing that Bai Xiaofei had to consider, something that never even crossed his mind before this ––

The accommodation fees…
