Chapter 401 Venom, You Can't Escape (High Energy)
"Lu Qinglin!"
Nan Wan let out a piercing scream and reached out to support his swaying body.
The blood quickly stained his white shirt, and her fingers trembled uncontrollably.
The black-robed man opposite them stared at them coldly.
"Let's send you all to your final resting place."
He flicked his wrist again, and the six throwing knives on the ground floated up, their tips turning to point at the two embracing figures.
"Bang bang bang!"
Several rapid gunshots rang out.
The throwing knife fell to the ground with a thud.
Fu Beichen led six Shadow Team members in and rushed in. He pointed at the man in black robes and gave a stern order.
"Capture him!"
The hall instantly erupted into an even fiercer melee.
In Nanwan's world, only the person in her arms remained.
“Lu Qinglin…”
She called his name over and over again, looking at his back soaked in blood, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't cry..."
Lu Qinglin strained to force a smile, trying to give her a comforting look.
"It doesn't hurt..."
Before he could finish speaking, his head lolled to the side and he completely lost consciousness.
"Stop the bleeding first!" Fu Beichen shouted to her amidst the chaos.
Nan Wan snapped out of her daze, carefully laid him flat on the ground, then quickly got up and stumbled to get the first aid kit.
...
At this moment, on a small boat at sea, Sheng Weiwei's hands were tied behind her back and her mouth was taped shut. Her two children had just woken up and were crying their hearts out, waving their four little hands wildly, wanting a hug.
The silver bracelet on her small wrist emitted a small blue glow.
Sheng Weiwei was heartbroken. She lowered her head and pressed her face against her baby's, tears streaming down her face.
"Mmm mmm mmm."
She was making "mmm" sounds, as if to say, "Baby, don't cry, Mommy's here."
But she couldn't say it.
A tall, handsome man walked in, carrying a baby bottle.
Upon seeing him, Sheng Weiwei looked tense and quickly shielded the child.
Seeing her like this, Ice Wolf felt a little soft-hearted.
"Sit still, I'll help you feed the babies." Ice Wolf reached out to pick one of them up.
Sheng Weiwei blocked him from touching the child.
Seeing her protective look, Ice Wolf said seriously, "You are Gu Xingnian's older sister, I won't make things difficult for you."
"The milk powder was borrowed from a family in a small fishing village. It's not poisonous, and the water is still warm."
As he spoke, he pressed the bottle against her face, and sure enough, it was still slightly warm.
"If you don't want your child to continue to go hungry, get out of the way."
Ice Wolf growled, and Sheng Weiwei, looking at the child crying pitifully, slowly backed away.
Ice Wolf picked up one of the children, held her close, and put the pacifier in her little mouth. The child immediately stopped crying, sucking hard and swallowing desperately, her big eyes still filled with tears.
The lines on Ice Wolf's face softened, as if he were holding his own child.
After feeding him most of the bottle, he put down the baby in his arms and picked up another one to feed.
Tuantuan sucked very hard until the bottle was empty.
After the two little ones finished their milk, they slowly fell asleep and stopped crying.
Ice Wolf reached out and ripped the tape off her mouth.
"Who are you, and why did you bring me here?"
"Shut up," Ice Wolf snapped. "Say one more word and I'll throw you down."
Sheng Weiwei didn't dare to speak again. This was a vast sea, and she didn't want to die.
Ice Wolf unscrewed the bottle of water and fed her some. Sheng Weiwei drank several mouthfuls.
Ice Wolf's phone rang, and he received an instruction. Then he saw a speedboat approaching.
The man boarded the boat, carrying a basket in each hand.
"What are you doing? Put my children down and let them go!" Sheng Weiwei rushed forward frantically, but was held down by Ice Wolf's large hand.
The man carried the child off the speedboat and then drove away.
"Give me back my children, Tuantuan and Yuanyuan!" Sheng Weiwei was on the verge of a breakdown, and she roared wildly at the ice wolf.
"If you want to arrest someone, arrest me. Why did you bring my child along?"
Ice Wolf's eyes were deep as he said, "Stay put and behave, and you'll save your life."
After saying that, he took something out of his pocket and put it on her wrist.
What are you going to do?
Sheng Weiwei struggled for a moment, unable to see what he had done to her.
"Gu Xingnian is much smarter than you. If you don't want me to shut you up, then be quiet for a while."
Ice Wolf made a threat.
"I don't care who you are, if you dare to hurt my child, I won't let you get away with it," Sheng Weiwei cursed, then leaned against the side and said nothing more.
A roar ripped through the sky as a helicopter flew over the small fishing village. Without thinking twice, Bai Yu quickly climbed the rope ladder and flew towards the sea.
At this moment, on Rage Island, a main building was encased in thick ice.
The official team members were stunned.
On this sunny and breezy day, for some reason, a large mass of ice formed outside this building, resembling an iceberg.
It's as if they flew from the water to the island for no reason.
Could it be that there are really some people with superpowers among them?
No one dared to make any rash moves and continued searching for the hostages.
At this moment, the last superhuman came out of the house.
This woman is wearing a red, fitted outfit and can control fire.
She looked at Qingning with disdain, and her palm moved slightly.
"call!"
A wooden box behind Qingning suddenly burst into flames, startling everyone.
"Helis, I'd like to see how you escape my fire."
After the woman finished speaking, she moved again.
They wanted to ignite the flame on Qingning.
However, it didn't light.
She moved again, but Qingning was still perfectly fine.
"That's impossible."
The woman looked at her hands with some disbelief.
Why did my abilities fail?
Qingning didn't turn her head, but simply moved her palm towards the woman as well.
"ah!"
The woman's clothes suddenly caught fire, and the flames spread rapidly.
She let out a piercing scream, frantically patting the flames off her body, and rolled helplessly on the ground.
Several of her men turned pale with fright and frantically tried to put out the fire.
Less than five minutes later, they had won all three games.
Qingning looked at Venom, whose face had turned extremely pale.
"I won. Tell me the location of the hostages."
A sinister glint flashed in Venom's eyes as he gave Lei Zhanjun a look.
Lei Zhanjun immediately took out a remote control and pressed a button.
A huge television on the wall lit up, displaying two split screens.
They were facing two ships, in two completely different directions.
Sheng Weiwei was tied to the deck of a ship, her face covered in tears.
On another boat, two babies were lying in a basket, while a man held a large basket hanging over the side of the boat.
Qingning looked at the two ship shadows on the screen.
Her brain worked at lightning speed, instantly constructing a precise holographic location map in her mind, quickly calculating the distance and orientation of the ships on the island.
Ten seconds later, she gave the precise latitude and longitude of the two ships.
Venom's pupils contracted sharply, clearly startled by her power, but then he burst into a maniacal laugh.
"Hahaha! Helis, you're amazing! But so what if you can teleport? You can't possibly save them both at the same time!"
His smile turned sinister.
"Now, obediently give me your energy stone! Otherwise, I'll send your man to hell!"
"I'll only give you 10 seconds to think about it."
Qingning looked at him coldly, her eyes showing no sign of compromise.
"Now that I've won, I'll decide the rules of the game from now on."
Qingning exuded an aura of dominance; today, she was determined to leave Venom's life here.
Just then, a helicopter suddenly appeared on the television screen and hovered between the two ships.
Seeing this, Venom revealed his final madness and roared into the communicator.
"Throw them all into the sea! Let's see who they can save!"
Qingning's lips moved slightly, and she spoke only one sentence into the miniature microphone hidden in her collar.
"Brother-in-law, save my sister first."
On the helicopter, Bai Yu immediately received instructions through his headset. Without any hesitation, he ordered his men to fly towards Sheng Weiwei's location.
Meanwhile, the man on the ship had received his orders. He grinned maliciously and threw the basket carrying the two babies directly into the turbulent sea.
Sheng Weiwei looked at the familiar faces on the helicopter and let out a desperate cry.
"Save our daughter! Bai Yu, go save our daughter!"
"I beg you, save my daughter!"
Before she could finish speaking, she was violently pushed down and plunged into the icy seawater.
Without the slightest hesitation, Bai Yu jumped directly from the rope ladder into the sea, while the other two team members quickly slid down and began to gather the crew members on the ship.
The helicopter quickly climbed up, changed direction, and flew towards another set of coordinates.
Venom rushed towards Qingning, trying to capture her, but Qingning instantly teleported away.
"Qingning, hurry, go save He Tuantuan and Yuanyuan!" Huo Shenyuan shouted at her.
Qingning did not leave, because she knew that if she left, Huo Shenyuan would surely die.
Therefore, she must deal with the venom first.
Her eyes narrowed, and she suddenly raised her hands, causing everything in the room to burst into flames with a loud "boom".
The people inside panicked and ran to put out the fire, but the fire was impossible to extinguish and only grew stronger. The temperature inside the hall rose higher and higher, and the ice layer at the very back began to melt.
The woman was startled; this was true fire control.
Lei Zhanjun was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, "Helis, please, let us out, I don't want to die."
Qingning ignored him, and Venom used his Wind Control Palm to forcefully chop at the outer ice layer, but the ice layer was too thick and it was of no use.
The fire burned fiercer and fiercer, and the thugs went upstairs in fear.
Venom tried to rush over, but Qingning closed her eyes for a moment, and then everyone froze.
"Venom, you can't escape. Today, I will avenge the child I lost," she said coldly.
Then he quickly stepped forward and tried to pull hard on the iron chains binding Huo Shenyuan, but he couldn't break them.
She couldn't take him away, so she had to implement Plan B.
She looked up and kissed Huo Shenyuan, and Huo Shenyuan moved.
"Go, hurry up, Qingning!" he shouted anxiously. "You promised me you wouldn't hold me back."
Qingning rested her head on his chest, tears streaming down her face.
Then, she held his handsome face and said earnestly, "Huo Shenyuan, wait for me to come back. If you leave first, I will go to the Yellow Springs to find you."
After saying that, she kissed his lips deeply and transferred the red energy stone inside her body directly into his body.
Huo Shenyuan felt a surge of heat rising in his chest.
The next second, Qingning disappeared.
Everyone inside started moving, and the fire burned brighter and brighter.
Huo Shenyuan struggled desperately, but the chains were locked and could not be broken. Before long, the thugs upstairs fell down as if they were burning.
Venom roared to the sky, unleashing a frenzied barrage of palm strikes, "Helis, you deserve to die."
He raised his knife, intending to stab Huo Shenyuan.
But he couldn't stab anyone; it was as if he was blocked by an invisible wall.
The fire grew larger and larger, turning the entire room into a high-temperature furnace.
Huo Shenyuan watched as the fire spread to his front, and then saw Venom, Lei Zhan, and the woman let out painful howls before falling silent.
He closed his eyes in despair...
In the ocean, Bai Yu desperately searched for Sheng Weiwei's figure after falling into the water.
With her hands tied behind her back, Sheng Weiwei was unable to move and fell rapidly. Suddenly, she felt something in her hands that was pushing against her, slowly pulling her body upwards.
Finally, Bai Yu saw her, swam over, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her out of the water.
Sheng Weiwei instantly lost control and burst into tears, "Bai Yu, hurry and save Tuantuan and Yuanyuan!"
"Bai Yu, quickly save my daughter."
Bai Yu lowered his head and kissed her. "Don't worry, Qing Ning will save them."
"Waaah, they've been in the water for so long." Sheng Weiwei sobbed in his arms. "Qingning, where are you?"
At this moment, in the deep sea.
Qingning looked at the azure sky before her, her temples throbbing.
She was only a few minutes late.
Those two little devils have vanished without a trace.
Qingning pushed aside the schools of fish that were in her way, her eyes quickly searching the colorful underwater world.
Swimming with the school of fish, rushing forward with the ocean current.
Finally, she saw that small figure.
It's Tuan Tuan.
She sped over, stretched out her long arm, and scooped the little guy who was having a blast into her arms.
Qingning pinched her little face, then turned around and went to find another one.
Goodness.
Yuanyuan was chasing a clownfish, kicking her short little legs with great joy.
She moved so fast, weaving in and out of the school of fish, as agile as a real fish.
"Little rascal."
Qingning whispered something, and her figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
The next second, she appeared in front of Yuanyuan, reached out suddenly, and finally caught the slippery little guy.
A moment later, the sea surface burst open with a "whoosh".
Qingning emerged from the water, holding two wet babies in her arms, one in her left hand and one in her right.
"quick!"
Bai Yu stood by the yacht, quickly reached out to take the child, and then pulled her up with him.
"Tuan Tuan! Yuan Yuan!"
Sheng Weiwei rushed over, hugged her two darlings tightly, kissed them on the left and right, her eyes reddening.
"My darlings, you scared your mother to death!"
Qingning shook the water droplets off her hair and took a breath.
“They’re fine. The bracelets I gave them have my water source stones on them, so they won’t get flooded.”
She paused, her voice tinged with lingering fear.
"I'm afraid it will be swept away by the ocean current, then we'll really never find it again."
Bai Yu picked up the soaking wet Yuan Yuan and leaned down to give her a big kiss on her chubby cheek.
Then, he kissed Sheng Weiwei on the lips and said, "I'm sorry, I startled you."
Sheng Weiwei leaned against him, tears streaming down her face.
Qingning's gaze passed over them, looking towards the distant island.
"I'm going to find Huo Shenyuan."
She had barely finished speaking when she vanished.
Back on the island.
The scene before her eyes chilled Qingning to the bone.
That magnificent main building has been burned to a charred ruin.
The building collapsed.
The air was filled with choking smoke and scorching heat.
The people inside are probably already ashes.
Even the ice she had laid down earlier melted completely.
"Huo Shenyuan!"
"Huo Shenyuan!"
She shouted at the ruins, but the only response was the crackling of burning charcoal.
She rushed over and forcefully shoveled away the embers that still held embers.
It's so hot!
The fingertips were instantly burned, the skin was torn open, and blood was dripping out.
She no longer has any red energy stones on her.
She was also afraid of fire.
A piercing pain shot through her fingertips, but she couldn't care less.
"Huo Shenyuan, sob sob... Huo Shenyuan, where are you?"
Answer me!
Qingning cried out like a madwoman, frantically searching through the scorching ruins.
"Huo Shenyuan..."
She clearly gave him the Firestone.
He can avoid fire.
He can't be hurt!
"Everything inside was burned to ashes, so there are definitely no survivors."
A man in uniform said something to her.
Qingning stopped moving.
She knelt in the ruins, her tears falling in large drops into the black ashes.
"Huo Shenyuan... come out here... Huo Shenyuan."
"Qingning." A familiar voice sounded behind her.
Qingning froze completely.
She turned around abruptly.
A tall man stood not far away.
He was tall and straight, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist. Although his combat uniform was covered in dust, it was completely undamaged.
Only a few streaks of black ash on Zhang Jun's face made him look somewhat disheveled.
Those deep eyes were staring at her without blinking.
It was Huo Shenyuan.
Qingning's tears instantly burst forth.
She scrambled to her feet, rushed over like a madwoman, and buried her face in his strong arms, hugging him tightly.
"Waaaaah..."
She couldn't say anything, she just cried, crying out all her fear and despair.
Huo Shenyuan's tall body trembled slightly, then his strong hands encircled her, pulling her into his chest.
"It's alright, I'm fine. With your energy stone protecting me, I didn't get burned."
He comforted her, cupped her tear-streaked and dust-covered face, and wiped away her tears with his thumb.
Then, he lowered his head and kissed her deeply...
