Chapter 35

Bai Cangdong took out his Dao Lun Society identity badge. Besides proving his membership in the Dao Lun Society, it could also record the number of undead he had slain.

"Three thousand eight hundred and eighty-nine green-eyed Asuras, did I really kill that many green-eyed Asuras?" Seeing the number displayed on the badge, Bai Cangdong was startled.

"Brother Bai, are you feeling better?" Ma Fei and Li Xifeng, among others, walked in.

"I'm much better, how about you guys? Did you complete the mission?" Bai Cangdong smiled.

"We don't know yet, but it should be close. The society's standard is to slay ten thousand green-eyed Asuras. If we add up everyone's, we should reach that number. Since everyone is here, let's take out our identity badges and tally up to see if we have enough." Ma Fei said.

Zheng Hao took out his identity badge first: "I only killed a little over a hundred green-eyed Asuras, sorry, Ma Fei."

"As long as you're alive, that's all that matters. No need to say more." Ma Fei took the badge and lightly punched Zheng Hao's chest.

"Our team killed a total of one thousand nine hundred green-eyed Asuras, here are all our badges." Li Xifeng handed over his and the other barons' badges to Ma Fei.

"Our team did a bit better, two thousand one hundred green-eyed Asuras." Li Yan smiled and handed over her badge to Ma Fei.

"Thanks to both of you. It seems we're close. I killed about two thousand, so together we have nearly seven thousand green-eyed Asuras. Brother Luo's team is the strongest; they should have killed more than three thousand, right?" Ma Fei looked at Luo Ge.

"Of course." Luo Ge proudly handed over his badge: "We killed a total of three thousand two hundred and fifty-six green-eyed Asuras. It looks like I won the bet this time."

Ma Fei took the badge and added up all the numbers recorded on the badges, but his expression turned grim: "A total of nine thousand six hundred and fifty, we're still short by three hundred and fifty."

"What should we do? It's already night, we can't go out to hunt green-eyed Asuras. Even if we did, we might not find them. Most of the nearby green-eyed Asuras have already been killed. We'd have to go deep into the hills to find that many." Zheng Hao said anxiously.

"There's no choice, we'll have to wait until dawn tomorrow to hunt another three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras." Ma Fei said.

"That's the only way. We're only short by three or four hundred green-eyed Asuras, but it will cost us a day." Li Xifeng sighed. He and Bai Cangdong had only taken two days off, and the Earl's residence had strict rules. Being late by one day would certainly result in punishment.

Luo Ge, who had also only taken two days off, couldn't help but complain: "This is all Old Bai's fault. If he hadn't insisted on going into the hills alone, we wouldn't be short by three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras."

"This isn't Brother Bai's fault. Even if he had gone with us, it would have been hard to kill three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras." Ma Fei shook his head.

"Brother Bai, check your badge and see how many green-eyed Asuras you killed. Maybe it's enough to make up for the three hundred and fifty?" Zheng Hao said.

Luo Ge mocked: "Dream on. He was unconscious all day. Do you think he could have killed three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras in one day? Do you think he's a viscount?"

Bai Cangdong glanced at Luo Ge. He didn't think he had offended Luo Ge, and they had been teammates in the tournament, working hard together to win the championship. He didn't understand why Luo Ge was targeting him now.

"Brother Bai, give me your badge too. Whatever the number, we'll make up the rest tomorrow morning." Ma Fei looked at Bai Cangdong.

Bai Cangdong hesitated but finally handed over his badge. He didn't want to give it to Ma Fei in front of everyone, but he had no choice.

"How many green-eyed Asuras did Brother Bai kill? Is it enough to make up for the three hundred and fifty?" Zheng Hao asked anxiously.

Ma Fei looked at the badge with a strange expression, not saying a word after several glances.

"Even if it's not three hundred and fifty, thirty-five would be good." Luo Ge said coldly.

"Ma Fei, what are you looking at? How many green-eyed Asuras did Brother Bai kill? You're making us anxious." Zheng Hao urged.

Ma Fei suddenly put away Bai Cangdong's badge and bowed deeply to him: "Brother Bai, thank you this time. I, Ma Fei, will remember this favor. If you ever need my help, just send a message, and I'll do anything for you."

Everyone was shocked by Ma Fei's words, knowing that Bai Cangdong must have killed more than three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras, but they couldn't guess the exact number.

"I owe you a favor, but this was my duty. I should thank you for saving my life." Bai Cangdong said.

"Ma Fei, what's going on? How many green-eyed Asuras did Brother Bai kill?" Zheng Hao was almost ready to grab Bai Cangdong's badge.

"You're so stupid. Can't you see? Brother Bai killed more than three hundred and fifty green-eyed Asuras. We can leave for Dao Lun City now without wasting any more time." Ma Fei said, but he didn't reveal the exact number, which was truly astonishing.

"Brother Ma, you don't have to cover for Old Bai. If it's not enough, we can hunt more tomorrow. Don't delay your important matters." Luo Ge didn't believe Bai Cangdong had killed that many green-eyed Asuras. Seeing Ma Fei's evasive behavior, he thought Ma Fei was covering for Bai Cangdong, possibly because the badge showed no kills at all.

Hearing Luo Ge, Chen Xifeng and the others also seemed to understand.

"Brother Ma, Old Bai is our friend. There's no one else here. You don't have to cover for him. If we're short, we can hunt more tomorrow." Chen Xifeng said.

"Ma Fei, what you're doing is very meaningful, but you've put in so much effort this time. You must get that martial technique. Don't ruin the big plan." Zheng Hao said urgently.

Seeing everyone's misunderstanding, Ma Fei didn't know how to explain. Seeing that everyone was preparing to rest and hunt more tomorrow, he had no choice but to take out Bai Cangdong's badge and hand it to Zheng Hao, who was closest to him: "You all misunderstood. I don't know what to say. Look for yourselves, but don't spread it around to avoid unnecessary trouble for Brother Bai."

Seeing Ma Fei's serious expression, Zheng Hao took the badge with some doubt, and his face showed surprise. He looked at it several times and finally asked Ma Fei, unsure: "I didn't see wrong, did I?"

"Unless we both saw wrong." Ma Fei said.

"Brother Bai, you're not human." Zheng Hao didn't know what to say and handed the badge to Chen Xifeng beside him.

Chen Xifeng's reaction was similar to Zheng Hao's. After a while, he only said: "Indeed, not human."

Li Yan, after looking at the badge, also looked at Bai Cangdong with disbelief and agreed: "Definitely not human."

Luo Ge, the last to take the badge, turned pale after a glance: "This can't be. How could you kill so many green-eyed Asuras alone? You must have cheated and gotten help from others."

Everyone looked at him with disdain but said nothing.

"Alright, everyone, pack up. We're heading back to Dao Lun City. Let Brother Bai rest." Ma Fei waved everyone out.

The group returned to Dao Lun City in a large group. Bai Cangdong went straight home to rest, his physical strength severely depleted. Even with medicinal pills, he needed a few days to fully recover.

"Strange, it's understandable that the Bi Luo Wing wasn't absorbed by the sword box, but why wasn't the Bi Mu Pearl absorbed? Could my hypothesis be wrong? Is the standard for the sword box to absorb equipment not the first unique equipment I personally kill an undead to obtain?" Bai Cangdong held the Bi Mu Pearl, his face full of doubt.

The Bi Mu Pearl was not a rare piece of equipment. Many people obtained it during this mission. Using it granted some night vision, making it a power-enhancing piece of equipment.

The Bi Luo Wing, on the other hand, was much rarer. At least Bai Cangdong had never heard of anyone obtaining it from a green-eyed Asura, and it wasn't mentioned in the information about green-eyed Asuras.

"Equipment!" At Bai Cangdong's command, the Bi Luo Wing flew into his body and formed a layer of transparent green wings on his arms and waist.

Bai Cangdong slightly moved his arms, feeling a buoyant force lifting him, making him feel like he was about to float.

"Truly a strange piece of equipment. I wonder how long I can fly with the 'Asura Wing' technique." Bai Cangdong began to think about how to quickly master the 'Asura Wing' technique.

The only regret from this trip to the hills was not obtaining the Asura Green Blood Blade. However, with the 'Asura Wing' technique and the Bi Luo Wing, Bai Cangdong thought of a viscount-level undead mentioned in the information sent by Lady Red Lotus.

"If I master the 'Asura Wing' technique and combine it with 'Eight Steps in Heaven' and 'Soaring to the Clouds,' I might have a chance to kill that viscount-level undead and advance to the viscount rank."
