But before Bai Ye could respond, Little Fan Tuan let out a yelp and darted out.
Despite its round, adorable appearance, it ran with incredible speed. Only a flash of black and white fur was visible before a rabbit in the grass dozens of meters away let out a scream.
The audience blinked in confusion. Did something just zip past?
Before long, Little Fan Tuan returned, a large white rabbit about its own size in its mouth, and another it had dragged from the grass clutched in its paws.
The audience was stunned, especially those from Country R and Country Han.
"A-are? Is... is that a giant panda, the national treasure of Great Xia?"
"Oh my goodness! Was that Little Fan Tuan that just zoomed past?"
"So fierce and cute!"
"You call that fierce? It's stronger than many fierce beasts!"
Netizens from within Great Xia were far more composed. What was so surprising about catching two rabbits? Had they not seen Little Fan Tuan, when it was much smaller, dare to fight a python-like black snake!
"Yingying??" Little Fan Tuan placed the rabbits before Bai Ye, wagging its paws proudly.
Bai Ye smiled slightly, and Lydia beside him cheered and clapped.
"Little Fan Tuan is so amazing!"
She jumped down and pointed at the two large white rabbits. "We'll braise this one tonight, and stir-fry this one!"
"Xiao Er, come here!"
Hearing Lydia's call, a giant grey dog emerged from the pack and wagged its tail obediently before Lydia.
"You carry them."
Lydia pulled a tough vine from the edge of the grass and expertly tied the two large rabbits to Dog Two. Though small, her movements were practiced and seamless, clearly not the first time she had done something like this.
The audience watched, a mix of envy and longing in their hearts.
"So cute and capable, where can I pick up such a cute little sister?"
"Please, Brother Ye, give us your address, I want to pick up a cute sister too!"
"How can I make my sister, who's like a pig, only eating and sleeping, accidentally see this video?"
...
"Alright! Let's continue!" Lydia excitedly called out after tying the rabbits, leading everyone further into the ranch.
Little Fan Tuan hopped back to Bai Ye's side, and Bai Ye patted Gou Dan.
"Let's go."
The magic drone turned its camera back to Bai Ye, who smiled and said, "When we get inside the ranch, I'll perform a magic trick you've never seen before."
"I just created this recently."
Never seen before? A new magic trick?
The fans immediately became excited. Especially the domestic audience, who had rewatched Bai Ye's previous magic tricks countless times and were starting to feel bored. Now, they had a new trick.
"I knew it! Brother Ye hasn't shown himself for days because he was preparing a new magic trick! My prediction was correct!"
"Someone drag this prophet away and kill them!"
"Brother Ye, stop bullying the little animals! Hurry up and perform!"
"Hahaha! Seeing how excited our friends from Great Xia are, I'm already looking forward to it."
"Another new magic trick? I haven't finished watching Brother Bai Ye's previous magic tricks, they were too shocking!"
...
The livestream was already approaching fifty million viewers, with over thirty million from Great Xia, over ten million from Country R, and over eight million from Country Han.
They were all happy and excited. But some were restless. The experts in the livestream wore looks of terror, as if facing a formidable enemy.
A new magic trick meant they would have to face strange phenomena they hadn't seen before and provide explanations based on natural science...
Urged on by the fans, Bai Ye and his group continued to advance. Along the way, birds and beasts scattered.
Lydia appeared cute and naive, but her mischievous and troublesome nature was strong. With Little Fan Tuan, Gou Dan, and a group of fearless companions, the entire ranch was in disarray, with scattered trees and howling beasts.
Dog One to Dog Ten, each of them had several prey tied to their backs.
They gradually moved deeper into the ranch.
Ahead, to the southwest of the volcano, where Bai Ye and Lydia first met and fought. After nearly two months of recovery, the ruins spanning tens of square kilometers had begun to grow green vegetation.
However, one spot remained barren. The ground was covered in dust and rubble, with numerous intersecting ravines. The water in the ravines was clear, but strangely, no fish survived, and not a single blade of grass grew on the ground.
This was where Bai Ye had first unleashed
But Bai Ye had underestimated the power of Hellfire. That terrifying inferno had incinerated all life there.
Passing through a dense, ancient forest, a circular desert with a radius of about three kilometers appeared before them.
"Woof?" Gou Dan looked at the desert with a hint of fear, then quietly glanced back at Bai Ye and Lydia.
Lydia looked at Bai Ye, her large eyes blinking. She still felt lingering fear, thinking to herself: Master was so brutal and terrifying back then, he beat people to death without any mercy...
Noticing Lydia's fearful gaze, Bai Ye narrowed his eyes and smiled. He indicated that the past should remain in the past!
The magic drone ascended, displaying the entire desert to the audience. A forest teeming with life on one side, a desolate desert on the other, with no transition zone between them.
The audience watched with shocked curiosity.
"Holy crap! What happened here?"
"These river networks on the ground, don't they look like cracks in the earth?"
"Can someone tell me how there can still be a desert next to this forest, which is more fertile than our black soil in the Northeast?"
"Why does it feel a bit familiar? Like the ruins after an immortal battle in a comic? How magical!"
