Clearly, he had been somewhat too sure of himself before.
He originally thought that reclaiming the Patrol Team was a simple task, but only when he stood within the Patrol Team did he realize a fact he had to admit.
And that was, there were hardly any people left in the Patrol Team!
Originally, the Patrol Team was the largest, responsible for the city’s security and the Master’s safety, boasting over two thousand members.
But now, there are less than three hundred here!
"Where are the others? Where have they all gone?"
He was incredulous. Have they all died? How could such a large Patrol Team be reduced to so few people? What was Ge Leader doing?
"Leader Xiao, the others have all been poisoned."
A leader stepped forward to answer Xiao Yi’s question.
They didn’t want this, but those who poisoned them in secret were too wicked. Every night, many patrol evil cultivators got poisoned. They wanted more teammates, but unfortunately, it’s impossible.
These past two days, they even tried recruiting some scattered evil cultivators in the city, but once they heard it was the Patrol Team recruiting, who dares to e?
Even us members of the Patrol Team, live in constant dread every day. Each night is a nightmare for us. Who isn’t hoping for the night not to fall so soon?
Batch after batch of evil cultivators collapsed. Frankly speaking, who wouldn’t be afraid?
"Right now, the Patrol Team only has us left, and... there’s no one daring enough to join from outside."
Xiao Yi: "..."
He was at a loss for words.
Those poisoning people were really... he didn’t even know what words to describe them with.
Those damned beings had reduced the Patrol Team to such a state; it was simply despicable. If he could catch them, he would definitely...
Forget it, the Master wants them captured alive, so he must swallow his anger.
"This leader gives you half an hour to gather all your subordinates here. I have important orders to give."
"Yes, Leader."
The leaders responded and left swiftly.
"Leader, what are we to do now? With so few people, it’s nearly impossible to guard the Inner City and prevent those hidden troublemakers."
As soon as the others left, an evil cultivator beside Xiao Yi approached and whispered in his ear.
Hearing his words, Xiao Yi’s eyes flashed.
He also knew relying on these people was useless; now, the only way was to incorporate his Bloodthirsty Squad into the Patrol Team to help guard the Inner City.
"Go gather the Bloodthirsty Squad here," he ordered.
"What?"
The evil cultivator was shocked hearing Xiao Yi’s words.
"Leader, this must not happen. If the Bloodthirsty Squad merges with the Patrol Team, you could..."
"When did I ever say the two teams would merge? We’re just patrolling together," Xiao Yi interrupted him coldly.
He wouldn’t joke about his Bloodthirsty Squad. It was only because the Patrol Team was so useless that he thought to call back the Bloodthirsty Squad. This way, he could make more effective use of them.
"But..."
The evil cultivator tried to speak.
He knew some words weren’t his to say, but staying silent was unfortable.
If the Bloodthirsty Squad joined the patrol, whether it remained the Bloodthirsty Squad wouldn’t be up to Leader Xiao, once the Master says they are Patrol Team members, they are.
