The man in front of Zhu Yong overheard their conversation, turned to them, and spoke up: "I heard that the destruction of the processing plant was intentional."

Zhang Lei looked at the other person and said uncertainly, "It shouldn't be. I heard from the families of the superhumans in the base that all the buildings outside are gone, and the processing plant was probably taken down along with them."

The man looked around and whispered, "Your information is no good. I heard that two people in their group ate noodles at the Happiness Home Noodle Shop, only to find out that the noodle soup was made with human oil."

They didn't eat a single bite, then took the food to the old, dilapidated G neighborhood and gave it to the elderly there. I also heard that they were there asking around for information, and finally left looking displeased.

Upon hearing about noodles and noodle soup, Zhang Lei and Zhu Yong swallowed hard, their stomachs rumbling loudly.

Why weren't they so lucky to meet them? If only they could have a bite of noodles, no, even just a sip of noodle soup would be wonderful.

Zhu Yong turned slightly to the side and asked the person in front of her, "Do you know what they're called?"

The man shook his head: "How would I know? I only heard about it. How could people like us be qualified to know the names of those high and mighty people?"

That's something that makes me feel really uncomfortable.

Neither Zhu Yong nor Zhang Lei showed anything, nor did they continue their conversation with him.

People nowadays have a lot of murderous energy; a single dissatisfaction can lead to someone being stabbed to death.

Although they both wanted to remind each other that the people you speak of as high and mighty are the ones who changed the fate of them, the people at the bottom of society.

So what are you being sarcastic about? What's with the sarcastic tone?

Zhang Lei tugged at Zhu Yong's arm, signaling her to stop talking.

Ye Ling and the others stood in the cold wind for nearly 40 minutes before Wei Cheng woke up.

He flashed through the air and appeared in front of Ye Ling, his powerful aura blowing her long hair aside.

Ye Jingyan quickly pulled Ye Ling behind him and said to Wei Cheng with displeasure, "You hurt her. Her skin is so delicate; even a little cold wind can break it. Did you consider that the strong wind you brought might hurt her?"

Standing behind Ye Jingyan, Ye Ling: "..."

She wanted to say, "Ye Jingyan, you're exaggerating. She's not made of paper; she's not that fragile."

Besides, given her current strength, this situation is impossible.

But to everyone's surprise, Wei Cheng apologized to her.

Wei Cheng's expression shifted slightly as he observed Ye Jingyan's protective attitude and body language towards Ye Ling. The way the two of them interacted was something only lovers would do.

Considering that she didn't really have a sibling relationship with them, if his guess was true...

His eyes suddenly turned dangerous.

He quickly adjusted his mindset, tilted his head to look at the small head behind Ye Jingyan, and said softly, "I'm sorry, I didn't think it through. Come out and let me see if you're injured."

His changes in expression and emotions were keenly observed by Ye Jingyan. He held Ye Ling's hand tightly to prevent her from leaving, and looked directly at him: "Since Young Master Wei has recovered, we have other matters to attend to, so we will not keep you company any longer. Goodbye."

As Ye Jingyan led Ye Ling away, Wei Cheng's eyes narrowed. Suddenly, a barrier appeared in front of Ye Jingyan, blocking their path.
