Xuan Yin looked up at the strange sight in the sky, his brows furrowing more and more as he gazed at it, wondering where this strange phenomenon came from and why it was happening.

He extended his palm, his lips moved, and a small halo formed, visibly drawing in the surrounding air.

He glanced sideways in the direction of the base and activated the thing in his palm.

With a whoosh, the halo flew toward the dark, thick sky. For a fleeting moment, the clouds parted slightly, but the halo disappeared just as quickly, the clouds closed tightly again, and everything fell silent.

Just as Xuan Yin was wondering what was going on, a bolt of lightning struck him without warning.

He reacted quickly, his body flashing, nimbly tiptoeing, and lightly leaping away from the spot, landing in a safe place.

Looking back at that small area, a deep pit has been cleaved out.

He was secretly shocked by how domineering Lei was.

Just as Xuan Yin breathed a sigh of relief, thinking the matter was over, the dark clouds suddenly parted, and another bolt of lightning struck him.

His face was calm as water. He slowly pulled out a lightning-attracting talisman from his sleeve and flung it out. The lightning that had just regarded him as an enemy was cleverly guided off course and disappeared into the distant horizon.

Xuan Yin stared at the bolt of lightning, lost in thought. He didn't make another move, silently observing the unfolding events as a bystander.

The massive lightning bolts, seemingly capable of destroying the heavens and the earth, did not strike the base at all.

On the contrary, it regarded irrelevant personnel, no... anything that tried to break into the base as a threat and wanted to eliminate it.

Then it's not a calamity cloud.

"Xixi... what did you do?"

Su Yuxi was unaware of the earth-shattering changes outside. All she knew was that she had to protect the man in front of her, that she could no longer harm herself, bleed, or run away.

She did it.

Suddenly, Su Yuxi opened her eyes, her clear eyes darting around. She found herself lying in Fu Huaijin's arms. Looking up, she saw that the man's lips were pale, his breath was weak, but he was still alive and had his arm back to normal.

But his brows were still tightly furrowed, as if he was troubled by the things in his dream. She raised her hand to help smooth the wrinkles between his brows.

As soon as she raised her hand, Su Yuxi noticed something was wrong. It was white. She blinked. Was it a claw?

She withdrew her hand, her pupils trembling. Looking down again, she saw that her legs had turned into claws, a tail, and a head... Had she turned back into a fox?

wrong.

Su Yuxi jumped out of Fu Huaijin's arms, trying to transform back into human form, but no matter how hard she tried, she just couldn't.

"It's all over, it's all over." Her world had collapsed. Before, when a tail appeared, at least she could use other tails to disguise herself. Now, what was she going to do?

Awooooo...

Su Yuxi let out a mournful howl, the sound piercing the surrounding silence and disturbing the battered Fu Huaijin. Seeing that he was about to wake up, she did not dare to hesitate for a moment, and immediately rushed outside.

As soon as the little fox disappeared, Fu Huaijin opened his hazy eyes. It was pitch black and he couldn't see anything. He closed his eyes again and waited for a while before slowly opening them. Although it was still dark, he could barely see his surroundings.

As expected, the place had become a ruin, and the desolation seemed to be more severe than any previous destruction. As for how he had done it, he had no recollection of it.

My whole body aches, I have no strength at all, and I can't even get up.

"Xi Xi..." he whispered Su Yu Xi's name, then his head lolled to the side and he fainted again.

When he woke up again, he had been moved to the treatment room.

The pain in his body had lessened considerably, but his face was still pale and his lips were bloodless. Only his eyes, after weathering the storm, appeared even clearer and brighter.

With a click, the door was opened, and looking down, he saw Chu Juan walking in with a medical record. Seeing that the person was awake, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fu Huaijin gave a self-deprecating smile: "I didn't actually die, did I?"

Human life is sometimes very fragile. A fall, a car accident, or drowning can all take a life. Yet, he survived countless inhumane tortures. Should we say that his life is tenacious, or that he committed too many sins in his past life and God has not tormented him enough, not wanting him to die so easily?

However, he was also glad that he had pulled through, so he could continue with his current plans.

Chu Juan looked at his sharply defined face and smiled slightly: "Given your current condition, it would be difficult for you to die."

He paused for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Do you remember what happened in the locked room?"

Fu Huaijin shook his head: "Don't you remember? Isn't there surveillance footage?"

Chu Juan seemed relieved, and his tone became much lighter: "You destroyed the surveillance cameras, and someone went in halfway through. Don't you really remember?"

Fu Huaijin pondered intently, but his mind remained blank, unable to recall anything: "Was there any different discovery this time?"

Chu Juan pursed his lips, lowered his eyes to look at the record above, and finally shook his head: "No, you should focus on healing your injury first."

“There’s also a major change in your genes…” He handed over the report.

Fu Huaijin raised his hand to reach out, but found that he couldn't even lift his hand properly.

Before he could ask what happened, Chu Juan sighed and explained, "Don't worry, you're not crippled. You probably overexerted yourself and are just exhausted. You'll recover well."

"Don't worry, you have quite a few wounds on your body, so you'll probably have to stay for ten days to half a month."

I was able to escape with my life this time; it was truly a narrow escape from death.

Recalling when they went in, they saw Fu Huaijin lying in a pool of blood, barely alive. The shocking amount of blood far exceeded what an adult could bear... There was so much blood that everything in sight was bright red.

Nevertheless, he clung to life, maintaining his vital signs, while the only person who knew what was happening inside disappeared.

They examined the items inside and found that the blood did not belong to Fu Huaijin, which means that some of the blood might belong to Su Yuxi.

Why isn't he there? How badly was he injured? Why did he run away? Nobody knows.

Fu Huaijin happened to have lost his memory of that day, making the already perplexing situation even more mysterious.

As for why he wasn't telling him about the situation now, he had his own reasons. He was afraid that if he did, Fu Huaijin would immediately insist on being discharged from the hospital to find someone.

For his health's sake, they unanimously agreed to suppress the news, and that they would share any anger that might arise later.

Of course, they also sent people to search, but three days have passed and they still haven't found any trace of Su Yuxi.

Where is Xixi?

"Has she gone home yet?" Fu Huaijin asked suddenly, looking at the leaves outside the window.
