The sage was determined to die.

If Yan Ming still couldn't react after hearing what the other party said, then he would be a fool.

Yan Ming clenched his hands tightly, acting as if he were complete strangers to the other person, and with a sway of his foot, he widened the distance between them.

"No need." Yan Mingyi refused firmly, his whole demeanor even suggesting that he was drawing a line. "I'll keep this pain to myself."

Hearing the other party's firm refusal, Gongsun Yang did not try to persuade them further, but a hint of envy flashed across his face.

He sighed, not trying to forcefully argue with Yan Ming, but simply said, "I understand, but if Brother Yan needs anything, I am willing to share the burden for you."

Hearing the other person call him "Brother Yan" so intimately and disgustingly, Yan Ming felt goosebumps rise all over his body.

He clicked his tongue and immediately switched from expelling her with his eyes to physically expelling her.

"Got it." After saying that, Yan Ming added, "You little brat, get in front of me."

Yan Ming thought to himself that he wasn't stupid. What if this person walked behind him and was about to stab him in the back? Then he wouldn't have anywhere to hide.

Upon hearing Yan Ming's words, Gongsun Yang was momentarily stunned, his gaze shifting, and he looked troubled.

Seeing her like this, Yan Ming thought to himself that he had indeed guessed correctly.

He cleared his throat, about to speak, when he heard the person on the other end say, "But we still need to recruit people later."

Yan Ming: "..."

Damn it, how could he forget that?

……

"You're really hardworking."

Ji Bai, his hands empty, looked at the two men pulling people like they were hauling cargo and said, "You two are not bad either."

Yan Ming: "..."

He looked at Wang Zhixuan lying on the wooden board, and whether it was his imagination or not, he felt that the kid was recovering much faster than he had imagined.

Thinking of this, he frowned slightly and mouthed to Ji Bai, "Shouldn't we tie him up?"

Ji Bai shook his head and said, "I cast a divination for us. If we're unlucky, we're probably going to get robbed."

Upon hearing this, Yan Ming raised an eyebrow and instinctively wanted to confirm the location of the thing in his sleeve.

However, he managed to restrain himself.

At this moment, Ji Bai seemed to have suddenly fallen ill, and said to the two of them, "If you run away first, you'll probably witness a medical miracle."

"What do you mean?" Yan Ming muttered softly, "I'm not going to get chopped up, am I?"

Lying on the ground, Wang Zhixuan finally understood the implication in Ji Bai's words.

After giving away the second fragment, his body appeared much weaker, but only he knew that his body was actually recovering faster.

Wang Zhixuan, who originally planned to escape once he had recovered to a certain extent, gradually calmed down.

Damn it, I didn't expect this person to see right through me again.

Ji Bai had been quietly observing his every move. Seeing the man's tightly clenched hand slowly loosen, Ji Bai slowly raised the corners of his lips and said, "It seems that a medical miracle won't happen anytime soon."

What is said with good intentions may be taken to heart by the listener.

Gongsun Yang also lowered his guard. For some reason, Ji Bai never avoided talking to him when he said these things, as if he wasn't worried at all about what he might do to him.

Did you know he wouldn't harm him?

Wait, why would he have such a thought that it wouldn't harm anyone?
