Chapter 37: Why is There Suddenly No One?

"Hahahaha!"

Su Lang couldn't help but laugh out loud, "With my current abilities, even an intermediate warrior could be killed if they're not careful. This feels amazing!"

At this moment, in the F-level Dark Snake Zone, the entire base was already empty.

In just over ten minutes, all the Ye family members caught by the clone had met their demise.

Su Lang's storage space now held a large number of spoils, including gold and silver coins, beast materials, medicinal herbs, low-grade weapons, and low-grade pills.

"Too bad there weren't any new techniques."

Su Lang regretfully spread his hands, then commanded the clone to walk around the base.

Anything of value the clone found was sent to Su Lang's room through 'item transfer.'

Su Lang would then store these items into his storage space.

One had to admit, the Ye family base was indeed rich, at least twice as wealthy as the Broken Axe Hunting Group's base.

Soon, the clone could no longer find anything worth transferring.

"The Broken Axe Hunting Group had a safe. This base probably has one too."

Su Lang thought for a moment, then continued to direct the clone to search everywhere.

Before long, the clone indeed found a large alloy safe in a relatively luxurious room.

Su Lang didn't know the safe's combination.

But that didn't stop him from claiming it.

"Smash it. Break down all the walls around the safe."

Su Lang chuckled and gave the order.

The clone immediately began smashing the walls.

With the clone's intermediate warrior+ attack level, even steel walls couldn't withstand the assault.

"Boom!"

"Boom! Crash, crash!"

Under the clone's continuous attacks, almost half the house collapsed.

The safe became a standalone object.

Then it was simple; Su Lang had the clone grab the safe, transfer it to his room, and then store it in his storage space.

Just then!

"Audacious scoundrel! How dare you destroy my Ye family base! Prepare to die!"

A furious roar echoed through the clouds as a figure dashed into the base, charging fiercely at Su Lang's clone!

"They came so quickly!"

Su Lang was suddenly startled.

Through the clone's perception, he could tell the newcomer's aura far exceeded that of a formal warrior, someone he couldn't match at the moment.

To avoid losing the clone, Su Lang immediately had it enter a nearby room.

Then, the clone slowly faded and disappeared, being retracted into Su Lang's mysterious black space.

"Run!? I'll fry you alive in boiling oil!"

The swift figure burst into the room, wildly slashing with a longsword.

The sword light spread like a giant net cast by a fisherman, enveloping the entire room.

However...

"No one—!?"

The figure stopped, perplexed.

The sword light vanished, revealing his face.

This person had a square mouth, a broad forehead, a pale complexion, and bloodshot eyes.

If any Ye family members saw him, they would immediately address him as "Elder Ye Tian!"

"Where is he!?"

"Why is there suddenly no one here?"

"I clearly saw him run into this room!"

"This room is sealed on all sides; how could he disappear without a sound!?"

Ye Tian's eyes bulged like lightbulbs, as if he had seen a ghost.

He then searched the entire room, and then the entire base.

But he still found nothing!

"This is impossible!"

Ye Tian was practically fuming.

As a powerful martial master, he hadn't even seen the face of a mere warrior before the person escaped!

If others found out, they would mock him for life.

Moments later, Ye Tian finally calmed down.

He noticed several inconsistencies.

"This person is just a warrior. How dare he oppose my Ye family?"

"And he escaped so quickly, seemingly with some sort of illusion technique, which only certain special attribute techniques can perform."

"From these points, this person shouldn't be at the warrior level, but a martial master who might have suppressed his spiritual energy fluctuations!"

"So, who is he? Why would he oppose my Ye family? We wouldn't hold a grudge against a martial master!"

"Could it be that this person is a rogue from another base!?"

Ye Tian pondered, increasingly convinced that the intruder was likely a rogue from another base.
