Bai Ye frowned, then leaped backward.
After Bai Ye leaped away, the arm pressed onto the ground, and then Daki's back writhed, and a man slowly emerged from Daki's body.
He had green hair like withered grass, and his body was extremely strange, with explosive muscles above the chest, but a very slender waist, so thin it didn't seem like a normal person's waist, only about as thick as two fists put together.
"Don't cry, don't cry, don't cry..." the man knelt before Daki, reaching out to wipe away her tears and said, "If you cry, you won't be pretty, how can you become the most beautiful oiran? Oh dear, haven't I told you long ago, not to overexert yourself when you're alone."
The man, while wiping Daki's tears, also reached out to caress her wounds.
The next instant, the burns on Daki's body that had appeared due to the explosion miraculously healed. In fact, her skin was so smooth and tender that it didn't look like she had been injured at all.
"There, there," the man patted Daki's head and said, "Leave the rest to me."
As he spoke, the man stood up and turned his head towards Bai Ye.
Only then did Bai Ye get a complete view of the other person's face.
In stark contrast to Daki's incredibly beautiful face, the man was very ugly.
The man's face was peculiar, gaunt and elongated, with patches of black spots on his face, and his teeth were very uneven, like saw teeth.
But...
In his open eyes, there were numbers...
Upper Rank, Six!
Bai Ye reached up and wiped his face, and the Predator's bio-mask appeared.
Biological scan initiated...
Biological scan ended...

Gyutaro?
It really is Upper Rank Six!
"I see!" Bai Ye looked at Gyutaro and said, "So Upper Rank Six has two, or rather, you are the true Upper Rank Six? No wonder the woman behind you is so weak, she's a fake!"
"You're talking nonsense," Daki said angrily, "I am Upper Rank Six."
"Good, don't be angry," Gyutaro patted Daki's head and said, "He's deliberately trying to provoke you. If you get angry, you won't be pretty anymore."
Gyutaro, as he spoke, stepped in front of Daki.
"Can you stop talking?" Gyutaro said, scratching his own body, creating bloody streaks on his skin, his face showing anxiety. "My sister is hard to appease."
Bai Ye said, "If you kill me, I naturally won't be able to speak."
Gyutaro thought for a moment, then said, "That's a good idea."
As he spoke, Gyutaro spread his hands, and then blood bubbles welled up in his palms.
These blood bubbles writhed continuously, like swelling flesh, and soon transformed into two scythes entwined with membranous flesh.
The moment the scythes took shape, Gyutaro suddenly raised his hand and threw one of the scythes towards Bai Ye.
The scythe spun rapidly, its speed terrifying.
But when it struck Bai Ye...
Screech!
Large arcs of electricity suddenly appeared on Bai Ye's body, and the flying scythe passed directly through Bai Ye's body, and then...
Rumble!
A huge sound came from behind Bai Ye.
A large amount of dust billowed up, and when Bai Ye turned his head, a house behind him had collapsed, turning into a pile of rubble.
This power...
Bai Ye looked back at Gyutaro. As expected, this must be the true Upper Rank Six!
Gyutaro had only made one move, and Bai Ye could clearly feel that this guy's strength was more than one level higher than Daki's.
At the same time...
Gyutaro extended his hand, and the scythe spun back into his hand.
Bang!
The moment the scythe returned to his hand, Gyutaro pushed off with both legs and leaped towards Bai Ye.
Such speed!
But...
Bai Ye wasn't too surprised. According to the scanned information, Gyutaro's speed was as high as 271, which was an extremely terrifying figure.
At least, in terms of movement speed, Bai Ye was in no way comparable to Gyutaro; Bai Ye's speed was nearly a hundred points less than Gyutaro's!
Of course, this was assuming Bai Ye didn't use his elementalized body for movement.
Gyutaro was fast...
But he couldn't be faster than lightning!
The moment Gyutaro reached him, Bai Ye suddenly disappeared and then suddenly reappeared, as if he hadn't moved at all, and it was as if Gyutaro had passed right through Bai Ye's body.
The next instant...
Bai Ye suddenly lifted his leg and swept backward. Gyutaro quickly raised his arm to block.
Bang!
A collision of flesh and bone.
In terms of strength, Gyutaro's value was 188, which was not that terrifying for Bai Ye. With the advancement of combat and the Five Spirit Curses, Bai Ye's current strength was 173, not far off.
Therefore, this collision was evenly matched, and then...
After blocking Bai Ye's attack, Gyutaro suddenly swung his scythes rapidly.
Gyutaro was not only fast in movement but also astonishingly fast in attack. As he swung his scythes, they turned into streaks of red light, continuously slashing towards Bai Ye.
If viewed from a third-person perspective, it would seem like the blink of an eye; the blood-red light from the scythes crisscrossed like a large net, completely enveloping Bai Ye.
The attack speed was also incredibly terrifying.
Bai Ye had never seen anyone so fast.
To be honest, Bai Ye admitted that he couldn't dodge Gyutaro's scythes, nor did he have the ability to block such fast scythes.
But...
So what?
Black mud surged from Bai Ye's body, and the Steel Slime transformed into the Aries Cloth.
Then...
Clang, clang, clang!
Bai Ye stood there, showing no intention of moving.
Gyutaro's scythes continuously struck the Aries Cloth, and golden sparks erupted, scattering outwards.
As a result, only some indentations were left on the Aries Cloth, and even those indentations quickly healed with the wriggling of the Steel Slime.
Surprise appeared on Gyutaro's face, and his movements involuntarily slowed by half a beat. It was at this moment...
Bai Ye extended his index finger and tapped Gyutaro's forehead.
Psychokinesis!
Bang!
Gyutaro felt as if he had been struck on the head by a heavy object, and he was instantly sent flying backward.
