Chapter 4058
Qing Yi stared at Zi Chen's back for a long time without saying anything.
Yi Bufan had already turned around and left.
Angus kept a distance from the two of them. He watched as Zi Chen left and stood there without doing anything else.
Zi Chen had chosen a very simple path to protect everyone here.
Although he had chosen to stay here, the path was not easy either.
First of all, there was rejection. It was obvious that he was being deliberately alienated.
Because he was an Awakened with the power of Devour, he was like a tiger in a flock of sheep.
"I will protect my heart and everything that I want to protect!"
Angus clenched his fists and swore silently in his heart. Zi Chen's figure had already disappeared.
After only one day, Zi Chen left.
Apart from Qing Yi and Li Haocheng, no one asked him to stay.
After saying goodbye to everyone, Zi Chen headed deeper into the forest. If he could not do anything for the people behind him, this place would become the next place to be kept in captivity when the Underworld Wraiths attacked.
The strength of the Awakened was different. Some were comparable to the Ghost, while some were weaker. The strength of the Devourers was much stronger than the Awakened. They could almost suppress the Awakened, but they were not much stronger than the Ghost. They were even weaker than the Ghost, but they seemed to have an additional ability to devour humans.
This made Zi Chen feel very conflicted.
But perhaps it was also because of this that the Awakened killed each other and eventually became the Underworld Wraiths.
Hope was still following Zi Chen. It seemed to be very excited as it moved forward, jumping around everywhere.
A day later, Zi Chen, who was resting with his back against a tree, opened his eyes. Hope rushed over from the treetops. Its body was more agile than an ape, and it was almost silent.
When it came in front of Zi Chen, it stretched out its paw and pointed in a certain direction. It seemed to have found something.
"Let's go and have a look."
Under Hope's lead, Zi Chen walked forward.

A team of Underworld Wraiths took a short break in a cave in the mountain.
One of the Underworld Wraiths sat on a big rock and said with some dissatisfaction, "It's been so long and we still haven't found anything. How long will it take to find them?"
"Sir, don't worry. This area is only so big. We will definitely be able to find them."
Another Shadow Ghost immediately stepped forward and said, "There are so many of them that they can't hide at all. I'm guessing that they've run to the outermost area."
The tall wraith continued, "That's for the best. I'm already feeling weak. Once I find them, I'll have a good meal first"
Hearing this, the ghost's expression changed, "My Lord, this won't do. Among those people, there is a very powerful hunter. We are no match for him at all.
Moreover, our goal this time is only to find their hiding place, then join forces with the main force to capture them all in one fell swoop. "
This Ghost Awakened was obviously afraid that Zi Chen would do something stupid. Their previous plan had failed, so they were really afraid of Zi Chen. They didn't dare to make the slightest mistake again.
The tall You Gui laughed coldly and said indifferently: "So what if they are Awakened ones? Can they be stronger than us?
When we get there, you just need to identify the other party, and I will definitely be able to devour him. "
"Oh, really?"
A faint voice suddenly came from the high ground nearby.
The few Ghosts were surprised and looked up. They saw a human walking up.
Two of the ghosts in the field recognized the human, and their faces couldn't help but change in shock.
"Zi Chen, he's Zi Chen!"
One of the You Ghosts recognized Zi Chen and cried out in alarm. At the same time, it retreated backward.
When the tall You Gui heard this, his eyes lit up, "You're that hunter?"
"That's it." Zi Chen said indifferently.
"Die!"
The tall You Gui rushed toward Zi Chen. It was very excited, and its body was surrounded by the light of devouring.
As the You Gui approached, a golden light flashed in front of Zi Chen.
The charging You Gui suddenly stopped, and then his body fell forward.
Instant kill!
The other two You Gui's expression changed greatly. They didn't pay much attention to this hunter before. They didn't expect him to be so powerful.
They looked at each other and wanted to escape.
The two from before had already run away.
Zi Chen held the golden blade in his hand and sneered, "You think you can run away?"
No one can run away.
A moment later, the two You Gui and the two transformed You Gui were killed one after another!
Zi Chen continued to move deeper. This time, his mood was much better. At least, the place where everyone lives will not be discovered.
Next, Zi Chen went straight into the depths, where there was a large number of You Gui's residence.
Zi Chen did not dare to enter rashly as there were too many of them. After thinking about it, Zi Chen decided to enter the place of confinement to take a look.
The Captive Land was so large that Zi Chen had never seen it before. Fortunately, the tall door was not heavy, and there were no other You Gui guarding it.
Zi Chen opened the door and walked in, then closed it again, trying not to be discovered.
He began to look for the humans living here. It wasn't difficult to find, or rather, it was very conspicuous.
Not long after, Zi Chen saw a group of humans. They were all standing there, and in front of them, stood a You Gui.
Zi Chen's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
They didn't run when they saw the You Gui?
How could the humans and ghosts in this place live in such harmony?
He quietly sneaked over and decided to investigate.

Eyke stood in front of a group of humans and said indifferently: "At this time, no one will take the initiative to stand up?"
The humans were stupefied and stood there motionless.
It's not that they didn't understand Eyke's words, but they were already numb to this scene.
Eyke smiled: "Oh, that's interesting. It seems that you don't want to die, you all want to live.
In that case, I'll call your names. "
The humans with blank expressions subconsciously shrank back.
Eyke's finger moved, moving among the crowd.
"I'll do it."
Suddenly, a sigh was heard as an old man walked out. "Devour me."
Eyke nodded with satisfaction, "That's right, one isn't enough, one more."
Eyke suddenly pointed at a woman holding a baby, "It's you."
The woman's face instantly turned pale, but she didn't dare to resist.
She glanced at the baby, tears in her eyes.
Once she dies, this child who can't even walk, won't live for long.
"I'll take her place."
At this moment, a man stood up, it was the child's father, "I'll do it!"
Eyke's eyes flashed with ridicule, "Why didn't you come out earlier?
But since you're so protective of your family, I'll devour your family of three, so that you won't be separated in life and death. "
Eyke walked forward, his eyes full of cruelty.
The child's father was angry, but he didn't dare to resist. He could only use his arms to protect the woman and child, watching Eyke walk over.
Eyke took a few steps forward, and suddenly blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
