Chapter 266: YYDS

The five people stayed on the beach for a while, and Ye Xuan said, “It’s almost time, let’s go back.” The others did not object. It was unclear whether the Black Dragon King and the Magic Whale King had determined a winner. Regardless of the outcome, once they finished their battle, the beach would become dangerous again. It was better not to take unnecessary risks.

Ye Xuan then stepped forward, grabbed the tail of the Kunpeng King, lifted the Kunpeng King’s body, and walked step by step towards the direction of the Magic City. The speed of Ye Xuan and the other four was relatively fast. During their journey, they saw the couple who had been captured by the Kunpeng King before.

The couple was affectionately embracing each other, and not far from them, there was a pair of pants lying on the ground. They had been extremely unlucky before, being captured by the Kunpeng King while innocently strolling in the Magic City. They had thought they were doomed.

However, after arriving in the East Sea, the mutated beasts unexpectedly made them play a word puzzle game. The young man showed great courage at that moment, letting the mutated beast release his girlfriend first and then solving the word puzzle game alone.

In the end, the two of them were rescued safely and sent back by the Mermaid Queen’s people. After moving a distance away from the beach, the young couple embraced each other, overwhelmed with joy.

Having narrowly escaped death and with the young man’s courageous act of letting his girlfriend leave first to face the danger alone, the couple’s emotions erupted on the spot, leading to a passionate moment.

As they were too engrossed in the moment, the young man had left his pants aside, forgetting to put them on. Just as the couple was enjoying the aftermath of their passion, Ye Xuan dragged the Kunpeng King over, while Su Mengli and the others stood beside Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan looked at the two lying on the ground and asked, “What are you doing here? Don’t you know it’s dangerous?” Just as Ye Xuan finished speaking, he noticed the pants on the side and realized why the young couple hadn’t left.

Long Hanjie also admired, “Courageous indeed, willing to risk their lives for pleasure? The mutated beasts in the East Sea could come out at any time. By then, you two would be like a pair of doomed mandarin ducks!”

The young man felt embarrassed and apologized, “I’m sorry, we were overwhelmed by the excitement of our narrow escape earlier and couldn’t resist…”

Ye Xuan interrupted, “Alright, no need to explain. Stop dawdling and come with us. Consider yourselves lucky to have met us first. If you had encountered the mutated beasts first, you would have become their food by now.”

“Yes! Yes!”

The young couple were sensible enough to understand that Ye Xuan and Long Hanjie were not exaggerating the danger. They had acted impulsively and were now feeling a bit scared. Meanwhile, in the Magic City, there was a sense of gloom.

Not long ago, the Kunpeng King arrogantly stormed into the Magic City, captured two people, and then left without any consequences. Lin Xu, the dean of the Awakening Academy, felt deeply troubled by his inability to prevent this incident.

This time was different from before. Everyone now realized the importance of the Awakeners and had enough respect for them. However, despite this awareness, Lin Xu felt helpless as he watched the Kunpeng King invade the Magic City and take away ordinary people.

Although the ordinary people did not blame Lin Xu, he blamed himself. He led a group of Awakeners from the martial world to the guard post of the Magic City, sighed deeply, and said, “Let’s start the live broadcast.”

Subsequently, an Awakener aimed the camera at Lin Xu and began live streaming to the people of the Magic City. Lin Xu slowly spoke, “This time, the Kunpeng King brazenly entered the Magic City, captured two ordinary people, and it was my negligence. I apologize to the two young people who were involved, to their families and friends. I swear that I, Lin Xu, will not let this Kunpeng King go unpunished. It will pay with its blood, and justice will be served.

“I also apologize to the people of the Magic City. My protection was inadequate, leading to this oversight. I will request to enhance the defense against flying-type mutated beasts to ensure the safety of the people in the Magic City.

“I know that an apology cannot bring back the dead or bring the Kunpeng King to justice, but I must say it again, I’m sorry.”

Lin Xu’s emotional speech, with tears welling up in his eyes, showed his strong sense of justice. The Kunpeng King had casually strolled into the Magic City, selected two victims, and left without a care, treating the people as mere snacks. How could Lin Xu not be furious?

At this moment, the people of the Magic City were deeply concerned about the Awakeners. After all, it was the presence of these Awakeners that ensured the safety of the Magic City.

Therefore, ninety percent of the people put aside their work to watch the live broadcast. They watched Lin Xu passionately apologizing, and some even shed tears, feeling that Dean Lin was a good person.

On the barrage, many residents of the Magic City began to encourage Lin Xu, “Dean Lin, don’t cry, we don’t blame you!”

“That’s right, we don’t blame you. It’s that despicable mutated beast. You will eventually kill that beast and avenge those young people.”

“Dean Lin, don’t cry!”

Lin Xu could see the messages on the barrage. Seeing these comforting words, he felt his nose tingling, and tears flowed more intensely. However, at that moment, the tone of the barrage suddenly changed.

“Wait, what’s going on? Why does it look like that Kunpeng from today? And why is it being dragged over?”

“It’s not just similar, it’s that Kunpeng! But how did it end up dead? And who is that? Isn’t it Ye Xuan, the top student of the Awakening Academy, and his girlfriend Su Mengli?”

“Ye Xuan and Su Mengli are amazing! YYDS!” (TL: YYDS: A very very new term that is similar to praising a celebrity, athlete, or other public figure)

“Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, YYDS!”

“Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, YYDS!”

Lin Xu, who was initially moved, was stunned to see that all the barrage messages were praising Ye Xuan and Su Mengli, saying “YYDS.” He was puzzled by the situation.

At that moment, an Awakener said, “Dean Lin, look over there.”

Lin Xu was focused on the live broadcast and the barrage, so he didn’t notice what was happening behind him. When he heard the Awakener’s words, he turned around and saw the gigantic Kunpeng being dragged by Ye Xuan alone, as if it were a dead dog, approaching the guard post of the Magic City.
