Chapter 710: 380 was discovered!_2
Ji Chengtian felt a sudden discomfort in his heart and broke out in a cold sweat on his back as soon as he thought of it! He had only gathered these people for additional support, but what would he do if they were all ensnared?
No, this couldn’t be the case! If it were so, the ‘Mysterious Spiritual Superpower User’s ability would be outrageously terrifying! But without the so-called “Mysterious Spiritual Power” user, how could their behavior be explained? Could it be that they were willing participants?
Willing…
Ji Chengtian suddenly thought of sothing, his eyes widening in disbelief as he stared in the direction of Peace Base. He had felt sothing was amiss earlier, but Gu Yong had been so certain, claiming there was a mysterious Spiritual Superpower User in the base who had taken control of Liu Yue and his n, and they had entered of their own volition.
Having heard Gu Yong’s words, he didn’t dwell on it any further. Fearing the strength of the adversary, he dared not confront them directly, so he gave up on Liu Yue and his company of over a thousand n, and headed back to his base. Then he summoned the other seven chiefs from the base and forced them to act with him.
Because of this, the rumors within the base grew increasingly outrageous. Not only did they cause panic, but he had no idea how many people were cursing him behind his back! However, if these people had acted of their own free will, then everything made sense.
The re thought of this possibility caused Ji Chengtian’s heart to ache; he had nearly destroyed his reputation over these people, and now they seed to be conspiring against him! Then his thoughts turned to Gu Yong again, and his heart filled with even more furor. If it wasn’t for that man’s nonsense, how would he have been made a fool?
Now, with those seven chiefs and their n having entered Peace Base, nothing good was likely to follow. This was not a place to linger! These people working in collusion undoubtedly ant trouble, and he had to get back to his own base quickly to prepare!
As soon as this crossed Ji Chengtian’s mind, he imdiately ordered a tactical retreat back to the base. Throughout the journey, his mind was spinning with plans for what to do next. Although the power held by each of those seven chiefs was not as great as his, they were still not to be underestimated. He had forced them to bring out a thousand n, leaving many behind at the base.
Returning this ti without a doubt wouldn’t appease the group; he had to think of a solution that would serve both purposes and prevent those people from targeting him!
As clever as he was, though, the others were not fools. Fang Yuxin, Bai Zhengli, and the others stood atop the wall, and sensed sothing odd when they saw him suddenly turn back.
Soone couldn’t help but ask, “Why has Ji Chengtian suddenly taken his n and left? Has he been frightened again? That’s really pathetic. How did he even beco the leader of Chengtian Base?”
Originally, Bai Zhengli and Fang Yuxin were uncertain about the thoughts in their heads, but upon hearing this, it clicked. Whatever may be said of Ji Chengtian, he was, after all, the leader of Chengtian Base, and not a fool for having retained control for so long. His sudden departure was probably not as simple as fear; he may have discovered sothing.
At that mont, ng Ping suddenly exclaid, “No, we need to hurry back to Chengtian Base! If Ji Chengtian realizes our betrayal, he will definitely target our families and friends back at the base. He is ruthless and will stop at nothing!”
With this statent, worry spread among the others, especially those from Chengtian Base who had family and friends there. If anything happened to those people… they would never forgive themselves!
We must go back! Imdiately!
As they realized this, ng Ping, Deng Hong, Wan Hao, and Liu Yue all instinctively looked to Bai Zhengli for his opinion. Bai Zhengli, of course, couldn’t possibly stop them from returning. His expression grave, he nodded and said, “Let’s all go together.”
Hearing this, ng Ping and the others breathed a sigh of relief. They knew their own return would be uncertain, but with the support of the Hope Battle Group, and the addition of the seven chiefs who had just arrived, they believed this return would surely curtail Ji Chengtian!
Following this, they quickly descended from the wall, so so impatient that they simply jumped down.
Below, the seven chiefs and their n had just entered Peace Base and were still unaware of Ji Chengtian’s reversal. They were contemplating how to speak to the leader of Peace Base upon eting him.
Suddenly, they saw figures falling from above and were startled. Looking up, they realized it was the people from the wall coming down.
They couldn’t help but feel surprised, unable to understand why the people above were descending so abruptly. Was it to confront them? But as they were thinking this, they saw those who had just dropped down and recognized the familiar face of Deng Hong, who was presud to be in trouble!
The seven chiefs exchanged glances, and one of them asked, “Deng Hong? Why are you here? Aren’t you dead?” He couldn’t help but scrutinize Deng Hong’s expression as he asked. They had thought Deng Hong was being controlled, but upon closer inspection, he looked normal, showing no signs of being under any influence.
Doubt imdiately arose in their hearts, accompanied by a vague guess. If Deng Hong was unhard, why hadn’t he returned to Chengtian Base? If he hadn’t been controlled, then it must’ve been voluntary!
The chiefs reveled in this realization. Deng Hong was Ji Chengtian’s trusted aide, yet even he had betrayed Chengtian. This was indicative of how much of a failure Chengtian was at relationships!
