When Li Yidao returned to the funeral shop, it was already evening.
Collapsed on the bed, he drifted into a deep slumber.
The consumption of centuries of lifespan, coupled with the repeated use of the Blade of Death ability, indeed took a toll on his ntal strength.
Now, he harbored a suspicion.
If, under the condition that his lifespan was sufficient, he were to directly consu a thousand or two thousand years, would his ntal strength be completely drained?
At this mont, he was genuinely hesitant!
It seed that his ntal strength was also a concern.
In the future, he needed to find an opportunity to figure out how to enhance his ntal strength.
While Li Yidao was in a deep sleep, the entire world was in tumultuous upheaval!
Not only that, but news about him flooded the internet once again!
In fact, when Li Yidao just started taking action, the entire internet had already exploded!
Ever since Li Yidao followed these people, there were individuals keeping a close eye on this situation. So people with formidable abilities on the internet even managed to dig up a plethora of insider information in real-ti!
Even the specific situations of the individuals followed by Li Yidao were constantly under scrutiny!
This gave rise to a post titled “Death Online, ” where various internet experts shared their findings!
With the unveiling of one death list after another, one could imagine the seismic impact this had on the internet!
Moreover, this heatwave showed no signs of abating!
The entire post had already beco the number one trending topic!
“I’m really impressed, Brother Dao is truly furious this ti!”
“Yeah, consecutive kills! So many people! One dead every few seconds! D*mn!”
“There are still a few people whose status hasn’t been investigated, but I feel like they’re undoubtedly dood!”
“It’s impossible to survive! When Brother Dao takes action, how could anyone be spared?”
“The main thing is, I want to know, how did these people offend Brother Dao?
I’ve never seen Brother Dao so angry before. Now thinking about Brother Dao’s comnt with just one word, ‘Die,’ I feel my whole body go numb!”
“Let’s see how this matter gets resolved. Will Brother Dao really end up in trouble this ti? After all, he killed so many people at once?!”
“What are you talking about upstairs? What does the death of these people have to do with Brother Dao? Get the forensic experts to examine it. Clearly, they all died accidentally. [Facepalm.jpg]”
“Exactly, Brother Dao would never kill people. We are law-abiding citizens; these people just accidentally died.”
“Enough, do you think if sothing happened to Brother Dao, our post would still exist? Also, if sothing were to happen, would we wait until now?” “What you said upstairs makes a lot of sense. Those who understand, understand!”
“…Waiting for Brother Dao to co out and explain. There must be a reason for this, right?”
These netizens were all seeking answers amidst their shock.
And then there were others, perhaps just out to criticize for the sake of criticism.
They might be the legendary “keyboard warriors,” posting comnts that left people astounded.
“Even if Brother Dao is amazing, can he just casually take lives? Unfollowed.
People as heartless as him don’t deserve to live in this world.”
“Yeah, these are over a dozen lives. Even if they had a history of wrongdoing, those were past mistakes. How can you just kill them at will?”
“No one is perfect; who can be without fault? If soone makes a mistake, does Brother Dao think it’s okay to just kill them? He’s no righteous ssenger, he’s an executioner! He’s a demon too!”
“Garbage! People like him should be universally condemned! Trampling on others’ lives so recklessly! He’s the one who deserves to die the most!”
Reading these comnts, so people didn’t even feel the need to engage in a debate.
What kind of vitriolic language was this?
Talking about past mistakes as if they were already atonents?
What kind of twisted mindset could lead to such bizarre thoughts?
It just went to show that the world was never lacking in those who considered themselves infallible, living in their own ideological bubbles…
The next day, when Li Yidao opened his eyes, he glanced at his phone to check the ti.
It was already three in the afternoon.
“Hmm? Slept until the afternoon?” Li Yidao shook his head inwardly.
“Looks like the expenditure this ti was a bit severe.”
In fact, Li Yidao had noticed a pattern in the severe depletion of his spiritual energy.
If he only consud a bit of lifespan at a ti, even if the quantity was higher, the required ntal energy was sowhat manageable.
After all, he had previously consud centuries of lifespan.
After a simple morning routine and getting ready, he opened the door and stepped outside.
The glaring sunlight made him furrow his brow. Coincidentally, Sister Zhou and Li Xinting were walking in from outside.
“Brother Dao, you’re up.”
In reality, the two of them hadn’t planned to return yesterday. However, with Li Yidao’s return, they naturally followed suit. Leaving aside other matters, both of them were currently under Li Yidao’s watchful eye, aning they were in danger of death. Given this situation, they wouldn’t dare to stroll around casually.
Seeing Li Yidao, he nodded in greeting, and out of habit, he used the Death Investigation skill to glance at them. Li Xinting seed fine, dying a normal death due to lifespan expiration. However, Sister Zhou…
Her death reason remained unknown!
Moreover, the ti of death hadn’t changed!
This… the ti was approaching!
It was probably about a week or so before Sister Zhou’s death!
Regarding Sister Zhou’s death, the system provided a range, not a fixed ti, suggesting variability in the circumstances. Nobody would believe it had nothing to do with Li Yidao!
However…
The old man’s warning wasn’t arbitrary!
He must have known sothing.
Since the old man reminded him, it indicated a desire for Li Yidao to resolve this matter!
As for the reasons, they were definitely related to Li Yidao!
Otherwise, before asking Li Yidao to accompany him on an outing, the old man wouldn’t have instructed him to resolve these matters first.
There must be so connection!
Sister Zhou, seeing Li Yidao look at her, fell into a montary daze. Subconsciously, she asked, “What’s wrong, Brother Dao?” Her tone was quite uneasy.
Hearing Sister Zhou speak, Li Yidao reacted. Maintaining a calm expression, he pondered for a mont, then said in a deep voice, “For the next few days, don’t go out.”
“Well… you guys can move in with tonight.”
Brother Dao added another sentence.
In the past few days, Sister Zhou might have faced danger at any ti. In that case, it was better to keep them close, right under his nose. Only this way could their safety have been maximally ensured!
Otherwise…
If there had been a real threat, Li Yidao was uncertain if he could have intervened in ti. Since he could not have determined the specific cause of death or the ti of death, for Li Yidao, saving Sister Zhou and resolving this matter could only have been achieved by waiting for the crisis to co to him.
In the absence of the ability to predict in advance, this seed to have been the only viable option!
As for Sister Zhou, upon hearing Li Yidao’s words, she had stood there in a daze. She had understood, very clearly, what Brother Dao ant. She…
Perhaps, she had been already at the final monts of her life!
Previously, Brother Dao had ntioned she only had a month of lifespan, and looking at it then, it had been almost up.
In other words…
She had been on the verge of death!
Thinking about this possibility, her body couldn’t have helped but tremble involuntarily. Thankfully, Li Xinting had quickly supported her. “Okay… okay, Brother Dao,” her voice had trembled as she had spoken.
There had been no way around it…
No matter who had experienced this, genuine fear would have been felt!
At this stage, she had even forgotten about death!
Everything had been so calm.
But then!
She had known…
The calm days had been gone!
Whether she could survive depended on Brother Dao…
Could he protect her?
She had known very well that the crisis she had been facing had been definitely not that simple!
Otherwise…
With the contact they had had with Brother Dao over those past few days, they had known…
Li Yidao had not been soone who had casually saved people.
But he would always reach out to those he knew or was familiar with!
Therefore, it could only an one thing.
Her crisis wasn’t that simple!
