These dozen or so Evolved Beings were all dressed in blue robes with four large characters embroidered on the back— Cloud Peak Academy.

“Why did we come to the Wilderness Area? This place is utterly barren.”

“Yeah, weren’t we supposed to go to that Huangjiang Base City?”

“Really, those two Cloud Peak Academy recruiters simply embarrassed Cloud Peak Academy by dying in the jurisdiction of Huangjiang Base City.”

A middle-aged man smiled and said, “Before coming here, I heard there are Purgatory Fruits in the Snow Pine Forest of the Abandoned City. We can gather some and offer them to the elders of the academy.”

“Really? No wonder we came to the wilderness area. I thought you were planning to venture into the Abandoned City; it’s not an easy place to deal with.”

Ye Li was currently an eighth-tier Evolved Being. If he didn’t want these dozen or so Evolved Beings to detect him, it would be impossible for them to do so.

All these Evolved Beings were fifth-tier Evolved Beings, and they were all from Cloud Peak Academy.

Ye Li speculated that these people had come to investigate the situation because of the two Cloud Peak Academy recruiters he had killed in Huangjiang Base City.

The efficiency of this Cloud Peak Academy didn’t seem to be that great; they were only starting the investigation now.

He also spotted a helicopter not far away with his Heavenly Spirit Eyes. It was astonishing to see a helicopter in the Wilderness Area; Cloud Peak Academy must be quite wealthy.

As for the Purgatory Fruits they discussed !

Ye Li knew about them. When he went to the East City below the White Lotus Sect, a few genetic warriors from the White Lotus Sect had come to pick Purgatory Fruits. They said they used them to refine pills that could enhance their strength.

The Ancient Devil Tome that Ye Li possessed was obtained by swallowing a Purgatory Fruit. He hadn’t expected that humans could also use Purgatory Fruits to refine pills.

However, he had no interest in Purgatory Fruits. Instead, he was interested in these Cloud Peak Academy people.

Without further ado, Ye Li followed them.

The Snow Pine Forest was covered in pristine white snow.

This kind of beauty would undoubtedly be breathtaking if it were in China.

The dozen or so Cloud Peak Academy Evolved Beings entered the Snow Pine Forest and began searching for the Purgatory Fruits.

After about ten minutes, one of the Cloud Peak Academy men exclaimed, “Look, is that a Purgatory Fruit?”

As soon as he spoke, the dozen or so Evolved Beings turned their gaze in that direction.

An eerie tree came into view, emitting a sinister aura.

“Yes, that’s a Purgatory Fruit, but to pick Purgatory Fruits, we need to eat Body Protection Pills first.”

“But where can we find Body Protection Pills now?”

“Since I came to the Snow Pine Forest to pick Purgatory Fruits, 1 was well-prepared.”

With that, the man took out a small box from his pocket. When he opened it, a fragrant ancient-looking pill was revealed.

Without hesitation, he swallowed the Body Protection Pill and then approached the Purgatory Tree.

After taking the Body Protection Pill, the evil aura of the Purgatory Tree no longer posed a threat.

After picking more than twenty Purgatory Fruits, the man walked back contentedly.

“When we return to Cloud Peak Academy and present the Purgatory Fruits to the elders, we’ll receive rewards.”

If the Purgatory Fruits were considered cicadas, then these dozen or so Cloud Peak Academy Evolved Beings were the praying mantis.

As the saying went, “The praying mantis catches the cicada, while the oriole waits behind.”

Little did they know that as they were heading back, a young man appeared before their eyes..
