Chapter 438 He stood up!

Chi Yanzhou turned to look at Wen Qing beside him: "Sister Wen Qing, thank you for your help."

Wen Qing nodded slightly and walked calmly to Si Sheng.

Just as she was about to bend down to examine it, Lu Nange gently placed the branch on her shoulder...

The little tree-man immediately wrapped its delicate vines around Wen Qing's arm. Upon seeing this, Gangzi quickly shrank his size and hovered around Wen Qing's side.

The two little ones stared intently at Si Sheng with their round, bright eyes, their focused expressions suggesting they were monitoring some dangerous individual...

Zhizhi: [My master told me to protect my teammates... You wheelchair-bound guy better know what's good for you! Otherwise... I, Zhizhi, will beat you to death!]

Gangzi: [The beauty has the tree branches protecting Wenqing, you better not cause any trouble over there... or this parrot will poke a hole in you!]

No one present could understand the feelings of the two little ones, but that didn't stop Lu Nange and her group, who had spent a lot of time with them—except for He Zhuo.

From their menacing eyes, you could read the fierce intent that said, "You little punk, you better not move, or I'll kill you!"

Wen Qing: "Thank you, Nan Nan..."

She then turned and looked calmly at Si Sheng, her voice gentle yet distant: "Commander Si, let me take a look at your leg."

Si Sheng slowly withdrew his gaze from Chi Yanzhou and the others, lowering his eyes slightly: "Thank you for your trouble..."

Wen Qing hovered her hand above Si Sheng's legs, and soft white light flowed from her palm, enveloping Si Sheng's legs.

As time passed, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on Wen Qing's forehead, but she remained focused and unmoved...

After about ten minutes, she slowly withdrew her healing abilities, stood up, and said, "Try getting up and walking around."

Si Sheng gripped the sides of the wheelchair with both hands, his knuckles turning white from the force, and stood up abruptly under everyone's gaze...

Jin Xiao excitedly hugged him tightly: "Asheng...you're all better!"

Lin Shuang couldn't hide her joy either: "Base Commander... try walking a few steps!"

Si Sheng tentatively took his first step, his steps slightly unsteady, but he quickly regained his balance. When he took his second step, he seemed much more at ease, as if he was readjusting to his legs that could walk freely.

The group of people watching from outside the fence, known as Pepper, immediately erupted in excitement...

"They've stood up! Did you see that? They really stood up!"

"The base commander has really stood up!"

"Great! We can move now, we don't have to be constantly attacked by other bases anymore!"

"The base commander is back! Let's see who dares to bully us now!"

Amidst the cheers, Chi Yanzhou's voice rang out, breaking the brief harmony: "Now that your legs are healed, please, the three of you!"

Gu Qi immediately understood, stepped forward and stood beside Chi Yanzhou, a distant smile playing on his lips: "Goodbye, gentlemen!"

After standing up straight, Si Sheng was about the same height as Chi Yanzhou and the others. He stood still, his slender fingers unconsciously gripping his trouser leg.

He raised his eyes, his voice tinged with uncertainty: "Brother Yan...can we join Flameheart?"

He Zhuo immediately sneered: "Hey... Si, how come I never noticed before that you have a face that can hold a thousand mountains and rivers?"

We just agreed that we'd be even after the leg treatment... and now you want to renege on your promise?

Jin Xiao: "He Zhuo, your mouth is as annoying as ever! Aren't you afraid of poisoning yourself with a single lick?"

Lu Nange originally thought this was a private matter between Chi Yanzhou and the others, and she had been holding back... but now she really couldn't hold back anymore!

His gaze turned cold, and a sharp gust of wind suddenly swept towards Jin Xiao, knocking him to the ground.

She stood there, saying, "Even if we, the people of Flameheart, are full of flaws, it's none of your business to point fingers at us!"

He Zhuo's eyes welled up with tears: "Waaah... I knew it... Waaah... My little sister is the best to me!"

Gu Wan shuddered involuntarily, glancing at He Zhuo with disdain: "Can you please stop being so disgusting to Nan Nan and ruining her performance?"

Lin Shuang hurriedly stepped forward to help Jin Xiao: "Brother Jin, Miss Lu is at Level 6... Level 6!"

Fearing another conflict, she helped Jin Xiao up and apologized repeatedly.

"Miss Lu, I'm sorry, Brother Jin didn't mean that... Thank you for healing our base commander's leg, we'll leave immediately!"

Just then, Chi Yanzhou lightly raised his finger, and a small bolt of lightning struck Si Sheng. It wasn't very powerful, but it was enough to cause a stinging pain.

"Si Sheng, if you can't control your eyes, I don't mind... gouging them out for you right now!"

Si Sheng twitched slightly from the lightning strike, his hair standing on end...

He immediately averted his gaze from Lu Nange and whispered, "Brother Yan, I'm sorry!"

Shi Xu: "Si Sheng, we all know exactly who you are."

Stop putting on this pitiful act, it's an eyesore! Once your leg is healed, we'll be even with you.

Next time we meet... if you're still so tactless, I won't hesitate to break all your legs!

Jin Xiao clenched his fists: "Yan-ge, A-Xu...we've been friends for years...why make such a fuss?"

Lu Beiye, who had been quietly staying by Lu Nange's side, suddenly tilted his head and asked in an innocent tone.

"Sister, this Jin Xiao... his family must live near Dongting Lake, right? Otherwise, how could they raise such a top-quality Biluochun tea in him?"

"puff--"

He Zhuo, Gu Wan, and the others burst into laughter, their laughter exceptionally loud...

Gu Wan laughed so hard she almost fell over: "Nan Nan, I really didn't expect... I only described our little A Ye once and he remembered it!"

"You..." Jin Xiao's face turned pale with anger, and he was about to retort when Lin Shuang stomped on his shoe...

Taking advantage of the moment when Jin Xiao bent over in pain, Lin Shuang covered Jin Xiao's mouth and whispered in his ear.

"Brother Jin, none of the Twelve Fiends are low-level! Wake up!"

While forcefully covering Jin Xiao's mouth, Lin Shuang awkwardly smiled apologetically at everyone, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry... Miss Lu, we'll leave right away, we'll leave right away!"

Gu Qi: "Jin Xiao, do you really consider us friends? We understand that people have different levels of closeness or distance!"

But we don't owe you anything, do we? Not to mention anything far in the future, we just saved your lives this morning...

All these things you've done, and your current nonchalant attitude, do you consider us friends?

Jin Xiao was speechless after Lu Beiye's words, his face turning red, but Gu Qi and Lin Shuang's words calmed him down.

Seeing that he was quiet, Lin Shuang let go of his hand, allowing Jin Xiao to speak and respond normally.

Gu Wan had already laughed enough. Seeing that her brother's outburst had come to an end, she put her hands on her hips and unleashed another barrage of laughter...
