137 Chapter - A Dying Plea

The three of them paused slightly at the sight, looking at each other.

"Tang Yan, what is the meaning of this?" Leng Ningxue was the first to question him.

"What meaning?" Tang Yan burst into laughter at their reaction.

"Although everyone is very grateful that you helped us complete the trial mission, one thing is one thing, and now we need to resolve personal grievances!"

"Bai Cheng, your employee's strength must be almost depleted, right? Your clumsy acting can't fool us. Did you think you could use that red-haired guy to pretend to be a Legendary Employee and make us retreat?"

"Hahahahaha, I've already prophesied it, there's no Legendary Employee by your side at all!"

His face was filled with smugness, and the disdainful mockery in his words was completely undisguised.

The other subordinates beside Tang Yan immediately chimed in, "That's right, your arrogance led to your current fate!"

"To have a Legendary Employee and not keep her by your side and cherish her properly, don't worry, when she follows us, we'll definitely dote on her, Jiejiejie..."

"With so many of us and so many employees, and you only have three people and four employees, what will you fight us with!"

Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow, a hint of realization finally flashing across her pretty face.

So Tang Yan had used prophecy to confirm that she had a Legendary Employee, and Survivor employee cards would drop when killed.

At this point, the motives of these people were naturally clear.

But he said he prophesied that there was no Legendary Employee by her side... Bai Cheng looked at Chi Yan with a strange expression.

Hiss, that's right, Chi Yan is an Immortal-level now, not a Legendary-level.

Seeing these people so arrogant, as if victory was already in their grasp, and even fantasizing about the three of them, none of them got angry.

Yes, Bai Cheng just wanted to laugh now.

Yu Nian, with her mockery maxed out, stepped forward and retorted.

"Tang Yan, I was just about to say the same thing to you."

"What?"

"If you kneel down and lick my feet now, I might consider letting you be the last to die!"

Tang Yan, however, didn't get angry at her words, but laughed, "Don't worry, I'll be going in and out later."

"Noisy." Bai Cheng suddenly spoke.

The next second, countless vines instantly burst from the ground, piercing through everyone present.

Then several arrows flew, sweeping across the entire scene, instantly killing all of these Pioneer's employees without exception.

This sudden scene left everyone present unable to react; Tang Yan's words hadn't even finished before he froze in place.

Then chaotic screams echoed through the scene, and a strong smell of blood began to spread.

"Ahhhhh!"

"What, what's going on!"

"Save me... they ambushed us, hurry and attack... everyone charge!"

Lü Duo's vines didn't kill them directly, but pierced them and lifted them into the air, slowly siphoning their life force.

This process was excruciating, but it also allowed them to fully grasp reality before they died.

At this moment, Tang Yan was completely bewildered. He found that although he was unharmed, his pupils constricted when he stiffly turned his neck to look behind him.

Fear swallowed him like a giant beast, and his legs lost the strength to support his body, causing him to collapse to the ground.

"This is impossible, this is impossible!"

He screamed, terrified, unable to believe what was happening before his eyes.

How could so many of them, with so many employees, be instantly killed by Bai Cheng's employees!

There was clearly no Legendary-level Employee by her side... This was absolutely impossible!

As if seeing the doubt in Tang Yan's eyes, Yu Nian beside him enthusiastically answered him.

"You said you prophesied that there was no Legendary-level Employee by Xiao Cheng's side. Hmm, don't doubt your talent." She curled her lips and paused.

"Because the one by Xiao Cheng's side is an Immortal-level Employee."

"Immortal-level!" Tang Yan cried out in shock.

And the dying Pioneers behind him also had their pupils constrict upon hearing this.

At this moment, they finally understood why they had been instantly killed by Bai Cheng, and why she could complete the trial alone and still unleash such powerful strength.

Immortal-level, that was an existence far rarer than Legendary!

After hearing this, everyone understood and completely lost the courage to oppose Bai Cheng. In fact, because of Tang Yan, they had fallen to such a state, and all that remained for this guy was anger.

"Tang Yan, you motherf**ker!"

"It's all your fault, I could have developed peacefully!"

"Miss Bai Cheng, we were all incited by him, please spare us..."

Overwhelming curses and pleas for mercy came one after another.

Bai Cheng completely ignored them, and Tang Yan, who was slumped on the ground # Nоvеlight # before her, had already completely despaired.

Yu Nian continued to mock, "I really don't know where you got the courage, you guys haven't even completed your promotion missions, your levels are still stuck at common-level, and you dare to cause trouble."

She bit her finger, then raised her chin and paced in front of Tang Yan.

"To be honest, with your strength, Xiao Cheng could have easily taken you down even before she completed her promotion mission."

"But to be able to die at the hands of an Immortal-level War General-level Employee, you should consider yourselves honored."

Tang Yan stared blankly at the golden-haired girl, now no matter what else he learned, he didn't have much of a reaction.

Because Bai Cheng's strength had always exceeded his imagination.

"War General-level, no wonder... have you developed to such an extent?"

Tang Yan sighed bitterly, ready to accept his fate.

He closed his eyes, looking back at everything he had done since coming to this world.

Arrogant, conceited, naively believing he could reach the top, yet he hadn't expected to provoke a truly terrifying existence.

But suddenly, he opened his eyes again, his gaze sharpening: "No!"

Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow: "Is that your last will?"

Tang Yan shook his head, and spoke very quickly: "At most, you and I only had a disagreement before, far from a life-or-death situation, but during this time, it was as if someone was secretly escalating this conflict..."

"Bullshit!" Yu Nian interrupted, "You repeatedly sent people to track us, and even tried to steal things from our car, doing such despicable things and you say there's no conflict?"

Tang Yan was stunned by her words, a hint of shock flashing in his eyes: "How is that possible?"

Yu Nian wanted to retort, but Bai Cheng stopped her.

Tang Yan continued: "I couldn't even keep up with your journey, so how could I send any subordinates to track you?"

In the world of the Infinite Train, proximity can often be a manifestation of strength.

And someone who could keep up with Bai Cheng's train speed, would such a person be Tang Yan's subordinate?

Bai Cheng's eyes narrowed; she also confirmed it.

"So what you said is right, someone is escalating the conflict between you and me."

But so what? This couldn't change Bai Cheng's mind, nor could it change Tang Yan's fate.

It was true that someone was instigating conflict, but it was also true that Tang Yan and others wanted to kill Bai Cheng.

Bai Cheng would not let go of anyone who harbored murderous intent towards her.

And Tang Yan seemed to understand this, he said with a bitter smile.

"I only regret realizing it too late, but before I die, I want to ask Miss Bai Cheng to listen to my intelligence."
