Bai Nian activated her Ability, and in an instant, the two of them entered a Dreamland.
When she opened her eyes again, she found herself on that familiar road home.
The figure in front of her was Yun Mo, wearing a small dress with her hair down, looking as though she had dressed up meticulously as she walked toward the apartment.
A red 911 was parked by the roadside, and the luxury car naturally caught her attention.
Yun Mo was observing the luxury car when the door happened to open, and a young man stepped out.
He had white hair, sword-like eyebrows, and starry eyes.
Dressed in a white casual suit with a smile on his face, he looked bright and handsome.
With just one look, Bai Nian recognized him.
He was the son of Bai Tianyi’s third brother: Bai Ze.
Although this guy had never targeted her before, his entire family had always been loyal supporters of Bai Tianyi.
The assassination attempt by the Bai Clan and Bai Ze’s appearance here were definitely not a coincidence.
The moment he got out of the car, he naturally noticed Yun Mo, but he didn’t pay any attention to The Girl.
Because Bai Ze had grown up enduring the envious gazes of countless people, he merely treated Yun Mo as an ordinary passerby.
Seeing this, Bai Nian had no need to continue watching, and she decisively withdrew from the Dreamland.
In the room, the two opened their eyes at the same time.
“It’s really amazing. I didn’t even know how I fell asleep.”
This was the first time Yun Mo had personally experienced a Professional’s Ability.
“Sister, did you see him?”
“Yes, that man is my cousin,” Bai Nian replied without revealing too much.
Yun Mo was a very clever child and could always guess the truth from small things in her surroundings.
The two continued to occupy the workroom and chat; fortunately, the Careerist Association did not mind such things.
As evening approached, Bai Nian looked at Yun Mo and spoke solemnly, “Yun Mo, don’t contact me offline anymore.”
Yun Mo was stunned but reacted immediately.
She hesitated, “Sister, you…”
Bai Nian patted her shoulder, signaling her not to worry.
“I’ve saved up enough. I might be leaving Tianmu City in a few days.”
“Where is Sister going?”
Yun Mo asked.
“I don’t know, I haven’t decided yet.”
She shook her head.
“It’s getting late. Go home.”
“Okay.”
Yun Mo stood up, looking a bit dejected.
“Keep in touch via phone,” Bai Nian comforted her.
She turned off the lights in the room, and the two walked downstairs together.
Once they walked out the main hall entrance, they acted as if they didn’t know each other and left in opposite directions.
The Bai Clan, which had always wanted her dead, loomed over her.
Bai Nian didn’t want to involve others because of it.
Even this time, if the Wilderness People’s actions were premeditated, they never intended to let anyone go.

Arriving at the Tianmu Grand Hotel, Zhang Kun’s choice was a high-end seafood buffet.
As soon as he sat down, he took a plate of abalone and began eating like a madman.
“You’re really hungry…”
Li Qian looked at his eating habits with a bit of pity; he even wanted to lick the sauce.
“Eat! Why aren’t you guys eating?”
he said indistinctly.
“This meal cost me a fortune. We have to make it worth it!”
Beside him, Bai Nian stared at the large lobster on her plate, her eyes a bit dazed.
She still didn’t know how to tell the others about her departure.
“The bounty for a Second Rank Gate is 100,000 yuan. If we clear one a month and split the bounty, that’s a salary of 25,000. It’s enough to live without worries,” Zhang Kun shared his thoughts.
“Yeah, and if we’re lucky enough to uproot it, the reward doubles,” Li Qian agreed.
“Anyway, living like this for the rest of my life is fine. No worries about food or drink. We’ll talk about marriage later,” Shi Gao added.
None of them were big figures, and a Level Three Gate was already the limit of what they could handle.
The uprooting of this Gate was actually largely due to Xiao Na herself, and didn’t have much to do with the four of them.
As for clearing it through force, all four knew they stood no chance.
This was only a Level Three Gate.
What about Level Four or Level Five?
Everyone had elderly parents to support.
No one was willing to take huge risks unless absolutely necessary.
“Speaking of which, ever since Bai Nian joined the team, we’ve been seeing Disaster Cores one after another.”
“Do you think Bai Nian is our lucky star? I’ve been a Hunter for several years and haven’t seen as many Disaster Cores as I have in the past few days.”
“Of course she is,” Zhang Kun agreed loudly.
“Quick, our lucky star, say a few words!”
The three of them looked at Bai Nian in unison, and her thoughts were pulled back to reality.
[Parting is for a better reunion.]
[Daily Random Task: Leave the Hunter Team]
[Reward: One Prop can be designated for enhancement (Evolve into a growth-type Prop)]
[Punishment: This is a place of sorrow]
At that moment, the System in her mind opportunely issued a Mission.
Actually, it wasn’t really a Mission anymore, because this was already the plan Bai Nian had made.
“I… plan to leave Tianmu City,” she spoke.
The moment those words were spoken, the three were stunned.
Even the food in Zhang Kun’s mouth stopped being chewed.
Li Qian was the first to react.
“Where do you plan to go?”
“I don’t know yet. Maybe Di Du,”
Bai Nian replied, because Yuzi Shan was in Di Du.
The three were all too aware of her situation.
The dazed Zhang Kun also immediately understood the reason.
“Is it because of the Bai Clan?”
“Yes. I’m just a Life Profession, and I can’t fight them. I also don’t want to involve everyone. After this, they probably won’t have much patience left.”
As she spoke, Bai Nian suddenly stood up and looked at the three with a solemn expression.
“Team Leader, Shi Gao, and Sister Qian, thank you for taking care of me all this time. I was very happy being teammates with you, but now, I must leave.”
For a time, the atmosphere at the dinner table became oppressive, and everyone fell silent.
They all liked this teammate they had only spent a few days with.
She had both strength and beauty.
Perhaps the only flaw was her family background.
“So that’s why you were desperately saving money,” Shi Gao was the first to break the silence.
“Yeah. I gave Bai Tianyi a piece of my mind. That guy is very petty and won’t let me go,” Bai Nian explained.
“Well, Bai Nian, we respect your choice. There is no feast that does not come to an end. I hope you can live a better life in the future,” Zhang Kun said.
Bai Nian laughed upon hearing this.
“Since when did the Team Leader learn to say things like that?”
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. It’s not like it’s a life-or-death separation,” Li Qian quickly lightened the atmosphere.
“Then this meal has extraordinary meaning. It’s not just our victory banquet, but also Bai Nian’s farewell banquet.”
“Eat as much as you can!”
Zhang Kun waved his hand.
“I’ll go get a few bottles of wine.”
***
At 9:00 PM, Bai Nian was the first to leave.
Her face was a bit flushed as she hugged Li Qian to say goodbye.
Zhang Kun and Shi Gao stood silently behind the two.
No one said anything.
No attempts to stay, no way back.
Because they knew the Bai Clan would not fall, and they had no way to leave this place.
They could only silently pray that Bai Nian would have a better life.
“Team Leader, Shi Gao, Sister Qian, I’ll see you if fate allows!”
Her white figure reflected under the dim streetlights, she waved goodbye to everyone.
“Okay, we will definitely meet again.”
The others also smiled and waved back.
Bai Nian took one last look and left without looking back.
At that moment, the System’s voice sounded in her mind.
[Mission completed. Reward has been distributed.]
