When Li Yidao returned to the funeral shop, it was already evening.

Collapsed on the bed, he drifted into a deep slumber.

The consumption of centuries of lifespan, coupled with the repeated use of the Blade of Death ability, indeed took a toll on his mental strength.

Now, he harbored a suspicion.

If, under the condition that his lifespan was sufficient, he were to directly consume a thousand or two thousand years, would his mental strength be completely drained?

At this moment, he was genuinely hesitant!

It seemed that his mental strength was also a concern.

In the future, he needed to find an opportunity to figure out how to enhance his mental strength.

While Li Yidao was in a deep sleep, the entire world was in tumultuous upheaval!

Not only that, but news about him flooded the internet once again!

In fact, when Li Yidao just started taking action, the entire internet had already exploded!

Ever since Li Yidao followed these people, there were individuals keeping a close eye on this situation. Some people with formidable abilities on the internet even managed to dig up a plethora of insider information in real-time!

Even the specific situations of the individuals followed by Li Yidao were constantly under scrutiny!

This gave rise to a post titled “Death Online, ” where various internet experts shared their findings!

With the unveiling of one death list after another, one could imagine the seismic impact this had on the internet!

Moreover, this heatwave showed no signs of abating!

The entire post had already become the number one trending topic!

“I’m really impressed, Brother Dao is truly furious this time!”

“Yeah, consecutive kills! So many people! One dead every few seconds! D*mn!”

“There are still a few people whose status hasn’t been investigated, but I feel like they’re undoubtedly doomed!”

“It’s impossible to survive! When Brother Dao takes action, how could anyone be spared?”

“The main thing is, I want to know, how did these people offend Brother Dao?

I’ve never seen Brother Dao so angry before. Now thinking about Brother Dao’s comment with just one word, ‘Die,’ I feel my whole body go numb!”

“Let’s see how this matter gets resolved. Will Brother Dao really end up in trouble this time? After all, he killed so many people at once?!”

“What are you talking about upstairs? What does the death of these people have to do with Brother Dao? Get the forensic experts to examine it. Clearly, they all died accidentally. [Facepalm.jpg]”

“Exactly, Brother Dao would never kill people. We are law-abiding citizens; these people just accidentally died.”

“Enough, do you think if something happened to Brother Dao, our post would still exist? Also, if something were to happen, would we wait until now?” “What you said upstairs makes a lot of sense. Those who understand, understand!”

“…Waiting for Brother Dao to come out and explain. There must be a reason for this, right?”

These netizens were all seeking answers amidst their shock.

And then there were others, perhaps just out to criticize for the sake of criticism.

They might be the legendary “keyboard warriors,” posting comments that left people astounded.

“Even if Brother Dao is amazing, can he just casually take lives? Unfollowed.

People as heartless as him don’t deserve to live in this world.”

“Yeah, these are over a dozen lives. Even if they had a history of wrongdoing, those were past mistakes. How can you just kill them at will?”

“No one is perfect; who can be without fault? If someone makes a mistake, does Brother Dao think it’s okay to just kill them? He’s no righteous messenger, he’s an executioner! He’s a demon too!”

“Garbage! People like him should be universally condemned! Trampling on others’ lives so recklessly! He’s the one who deserves to die the most!”

Reading these comments, some people didn’t even feel the need to engage in a debate.

What kind of vitriolic language was this?

Talking about past mistakes as if they were already atonements?

What kind of twisted mindset could lead to such bizarre thoughts?

It just went to show that the world was never lacking in those who considered themselves infallible, living in their own ideological bubbles…

The next day, when Li Yidao opened his eyes, he glanced at his phone to check the time.

It was already three in the afternoon.

“Hmm? Slept until the afternoon?” Li Yidao shook his head inwardly.

“Looks like the expenditure this time was a bit severe.”

In fact, Li Yidao had noticed a pattern in the severe depletion of his spiritual energy.

If he only consumed a bit of lifespan at a time, even if the quantity was higher, the required mental energy was somewhat manageable.

After all, he had previously consumed centuries of lifespan.

After a simple morning routine and getting ready, he opened the door and stepped outside.

The glaring sunlight made him furrow his brow. Coincidentally, Sister Zhou and Li Xinting were walking in from outside.

“Brother Dao, you’re up.”

In reality, the two of them hadn’t planned to return yesterday. However, with Li Yidao’s return, they naturally followed suit. Leaving aside other matters, both of them were currently under Li Yidao’s watchful eye, meaning they were in danger of death. Given this situation, they wouldn’t dare to stroll around casually.

Seeing Li Yidao, he nodded in greeting, and out of habit, he used the Death Investigation skill to glance at them. Li Xinting seemed fine, dying a normal death due to lifespan expiration. However, Sister Zhou…

Her death reason remained unknown!

Moreover, the time of death hadn’t changed!

This… the time was approaching!

It was probably about a week or so before Sister Zhou’s death!

Regarding Sister Zhou’s death, the system provided a range, not a fixed time, suggesting variability in the circumstances. Nobody would believe it had nothing to do with Li Yidao!

However…

The old man’s warning wasn’t arbitrary!

He must have known something.

Since the old man reminded him, it indicated a desire for Li Yidao to resolve this matter!

As for the reasons, they were definitely related to Li Yidao!

Otherwise, before asking Li Yidao to accompany him on an outing, the old man wouldn’t have instructed him to resolve these matters first.

There must be some connection!

Sister Zhou, seeing Li Yidao look at her, fell into a momentary daze. Subconsciously, she asked, “What’s wrong, Brother Dao?” Her tone was quite uneasy.

Hearing Sister Zhou speak, Li Yidao reacted. Maintaining a calm expression, he pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, “For the next few days, don’t go out.”

“Well… you guys can move in with me tonight.”

Brother Dao added another sentence.

In the past few days, Sister Zhou might have faced danger at any time. In that case, it was better to keep them close, right under his nose. Only this way could their safety have been maximally ensured!

Otherwise…

If there had been a real threat, Li Yidao was uncertain if he could have intervened in time. Since he could not have determined the specific cause of death or the time of death, for Li Yidao, saving Sister Zhou and resolving this matter could only have been achieved by waiting for the crisis to come to him.

In the absence of the ability to predict in advance, this seemed to have been the only viable option!

As for Sister Zhou, upon hearing Li Yidao’s words, she had stood there in a daze. She had understood, very clearly, what Brother Dao meant. She…

Perhaps, she had been already at the final moments of her life!

Previously, Brother Dao had mentioned she only had a month of lifespan, and looking at it then, it had been almost up.

In other words…

She had been on the verge of death!

Thinking about this possibility, her body couldn’t have helped but tremble involuntarily. Thankfully, Li Xinting had quickly supported her. “Okay… okay, Brother Dao,” her voice had trembled as she had spoken.

There had been no way around it…

No matter who had experienced this, genuine fear would have been felt!

At this stage, she had even forgotten about death!

Everything had been so calm.

But then!

She had known…

The calm days had been gone!

Whether she could survive depended on Brother Dao…

Could he protect her?

She had known very well that the crisis she had been facing had been definitely not that simple!

Otherwise…

With the contact they had had with Brother Dao over those past few days, they had known…

Li Yidao had not been someone who had casually saved people.

But he would always reach out to those he knew or was familiar with!

Therefore, it could only mean one thing.

Her crisis wasn’t that simple!
