Chapter 1987 We Are Different

Originally over fifty had gone, but now fewer than forty returned.

Fortunately, those who remained were elites, mostly at the fourth level of True God.

Each of them bore wounds, and their faces were full of regret.

If they had known this would happen, they would have listened to Ye Yuan.

Thinking of those fierce and狂暴 bone demons, these people felt chills down their spines.

"You're asking for death!"

Zhou Yu gave a cold shout and swung his staff at Song Yu.

"Seal of Life and Death!"

How could Ye Yuan let him have his way? He casually threw out a Seal of Life and Death.

Boom!

Ye Yuan stood motionless, while Zhou Yu was sent flying back, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Zhou Yu was greatly shocked. In just two days, how had Ye Yuan's strength increased so much?

He remembered that before, they were evenly matched. Now, he was suppressed by the other?

Although he had expended a lot in the bone demon army, the power of this strike was no weaker than before.

With the same move, being suppressed meant the opponent's strength had increased!

"After two days of hard work, you still have the energy to show off. If I were you, I'd behave. Song Yu's words may not be pleasant, but they aren't wrong. I advised you, but you went your own way and cost lives." Ye Yuan said calmly.

The others were silent, but they deeply agreed with Ye Yuan's words.

Zhou Yu's eyes blazed with fury. He gritted his teeth and said, "You're good! Once I recover my strength, we'll settle accounts!"

Ye Yuan said indifferently, "Anytime."

In the following days, everyone recovered their strength.

Although Zhou Yu had made harsh words and was extremely displeased with Ye Yuan, he understood that Ye Yuan's strength was now comparable to his own, which was useful for breaking through the bone demon army.

Whatever grudges there were, they could be settled after getting past the bone demon army.

Sure enough, over the next two months, more people arrived, and the number soon returned to over fifty.

These newcomers were all quite strong.

Having been delayed by opportunities, they naturally possessed great strength.

But Ye Yuan did not intend to move until another two months passed and the number exceeded seventy. Then he slowly stood up.

"I'm going to try breaking through the bone demon army now. Who wants to join?" Ye Yuan announced loudly.

Zhou Yu did not move, only sneered, "Heh, you said you wouldn't go, and now you say you will. Just because there are a dozen more people, you dare to challenge the bone demon army?"

Ye Yuan looked at him and said calmly, "I am different from you."

Zhou Yu's face darkened, and he sneered, "How are we different? Do you really think your strength surpasses mine? Don't listen to him, everyone. He's at most my equal. If I couldn't get through, how could he?"

The others looked at each other, unsure of what to do.

After all, those who had entered once had psychological shadows.

Seeing the expressions of the others, Zhou Yu's face twisted into a cold smile.

Let's see how you handle this!

Ye Yuan said calmly, "To break through the bone demon army, our team will take the lead. The rest of you, provide support from behind."

When he said this, the others were shocked.

When Zhou Yu led them to break through the bone demon army, he made others take the lead.

Although he was the strongest, he didn't contribute the most.

The children of fortune killed by the bone demons were the ones who contributed the most.

They attracted the most fire.

But now, Ye Yuan was volunteering to take the lead, meaning he would face the most bone demons, including the strongest ones.

"Is this guy so kind?"

"His strength is good, but would he really put himself in danger?"

"This... could there be some trick?"

...

Hearing Ye Yuan's words, everyone's first reaction was suspicion.

After all, no one would do something so selfless.

Of course, Ye Yuan was not a goody-two-shoes willing to put himself in danger.

But if he didn't take the lead, no matter how many people there were, they couldn't break through.

He had already considered this.

The deeper they went, the stronger the bone demons became.

Even with his abundant divine essence, he couldn't withstand such consumption.

After all, the numbers were too great.

If not for this, he would have gone alone long ago.

Beside him, Feng Xiaotian was overjoyed and quickly said, "Brother Ye, I'll go with you!"

Ye Yuan nodded without saying anything.

"What are you pretending for? Do you really have such good intentions? Or are you plotting something to trick everyone?" Zhou Yu sneered.

Song Yu sneered back, disdainfully saying, "Brother Ye once fought his way back alone from thousands of zhang away. If even he can't break through this bone demon army, then no one can!"

A single stone stirred up a thousand waves!

"What? Alone? From thousands of zhang away?"

"This... impossible!"

"Even a True God at the fifth level would surely die if surrounded, right?"

...

Everyone's first reaction to this was that it was nonsense.

Although a True God at the fifth level was strong, they couldn't withstand the consumption of so many True Gods at the fourth level!

"You don't need to doubt. I saw it with my own eyes! Brother Ye indeed fought his way out of the bone demon army alone. If you miss this opportunity, none of you will get the Emperor Bone." Feng Xiaotian spoke up at the right moment.

By now, Feng Xiaotian's entire team had died, leaving him as the sole commander.

To obtain the Emperor Bone, clinging to Ye Yuan was his only choice.

While everyone was still doubting, Ye Yuan led Song Yu and the others to the edge of the bone demon army.

The bone demon army crawled out of the ground again, each one brandishing claws and looking fierce.

Ye Yuan announced loudly, "Without everyone's help, I'm not confident I can get through. But I'll only try this once. If I fail, I'll give up on the Emperor Bone. Then you'll have to find another way. Now, anyone who wants the Emperor Bone, follow me."

With that, Ye Yuan fiercely unleashed a Starry Battle Banner, blasting open a bloody path.

Then, without looking back, he led Song Yu and the others into the bone demon army.

"Heavenly Sovereign treasures! Two Heavenly Sovereign treasures!"

"So that's it. Brother Ye is leading the charge. What are we hesitating for? Let's go!"

...

With that, over a dozen people immediately followed.

Ye Yuan and his group quickly disappeared from sight; they had little time to hesitate.

Ye Yuan's words, revealing the Heavenly Sovereign treasures and leading the charge, had convinced the vast majority.

Compared to Zhou Yu, Ye Yuan was clearly more trustworthy.

He didn't force anyone to join and took the lead himself.

In contrast, the difference was clear.

Fewer and fewer hesitated, and everyone surged forward like a tide.

Zhou Yu's face was uncertain. He had wanted to be the leader, but he had messed up.

Now, following Ye Yuan was something he was unwilling to do at heart.

But alone, he could never break through the bone demon army.

In the end, he gritted his teeth and charged into the bone demon army.
