"call!"

Qing Shuang took a deep breath and said quietly, "Never mind, once we're in the Alliance, this guy won't dare to act rashly even if he has some ulterior motives. Otherwise, with so many powerful people, there will surely be someone who can deal with him!"

"Yeah, today is also the day the alliance elects its leader, so we're not afraid of anyone causing trouble!" the other team members chimed in.

"Let's go back to our base first!"

After Qing Shuang finished speaking, she took the lead and left, but Huo Yun seemed to be preoccupied and walked very slowly.

As Huoyun fell to the very back, she suddenly said, "Um, you guys go back first, I forgot to take something!"

"Ah, Sister Huoyun, we're almost there, why are you going back to look for something?" a team member asked, puzzled.

"Um, um..." Huo Yun stammered.

"Alright, let's go!" Qing Shuang sighed and dismissed the team members. She knew exactly what Huo Yun was up to, but she couldn't interfere.

"I lost the pendant my parents gave me, I'm going back to look for it!" Huo Yun felt her face burning, and hurriedly ran back after saying that.

She never imagined that she would lie for a man she didn't know; it was something she would never have thought of before.

"Be careful!" Qing Shuang could only give instructions, not stop him.

Yes, I will!

Huo Yun fled in disarray, leaving Qing Shuang with a bewildered sigh: "You'd better not harbor any ill intentions towards Huo Yun, or I, Qing Shuang, will surely shatter you to pieces!"

...

"Didn't you say they were in the back? But where are they?!"

Huoyun looked around in the dense forest, trying to find that figure.

"Could it be that he was just following along and has already left?" Huo Yun was very uneasy.

"I don't even know his name, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"ah!"

Huo Yun was still muttering to herself when the person who suddenly appeared in front of her startled her so much that she screamed.

"Who are you looking for?" Jiang Yuan asked calmly.

"I..." Huo Yun's expression was somewhat flustered.

"Your injury hasn't healed yet, and you dare to leave the group and go alone? Haven't you learned your lesson yet, or do you think there are too many upright gentlemen like me in this world, so you don't need to worry about danger?" Jiang Yuan said earnestly, resting his chin on his hand.

"What a coincidence, how did I run into you here!" Huo Yun smiled awkwardly, finally responding to Jiang Yuan with a stiff smile.

"Yeah, what a coincidence!" Jiang Yuan immediately switched to conversation killer mode.

"Um, have you eaten yet?" Huo Yun's usual impulsiveness vanished, replaced by awkwardness, unease, and helplessness.

"I ate it!" Jiang Yuan nodded.

Huo Yun kept wrapping his hands around, trying to ease the awkwardness with his actions.

"Just say what you want to say!" Jiang Yuan felt there was no need to tease the girl any further.

"Thanks to you for everything today, I'll treat you to some snacks as a token of my gratitude!" Huo Yun said, mustering up his courage.

"I like to eat children!" Jiang Yuan said deliberately with a smile.

Huo Yun was stunned. She hadn't realized it was a joke yet, and her expression still showed a hint of fear.

"You actually believe that?! Fine, forget about the snacks. I'll help you fix your talent and make up for your losses!" Jiang Yuan's understanding of this girl was refreshed once again.

Actually, he felt that Huo Yun had a fiery temper when they first met, and that he probably wasn't much better in his daily life. However, after meeting him today, he was surprised to find that behind his carefree attitude, there was actually a simple and innocent side to him.

"You really helped me repair my talent?" Huo Yun's face was filled with surprise and joy. It would be difficult to recover from such damage to one's talent in less than ten days to half a month.

"Let's go, let's go take a look at your base!"

Jiang Yuan casually put his arm around Huo Yun's shoulder, but Huo Yun ran away like a startled rabbit.

"Damn it, spending so much time with that guy Yu Tu has made it a habit!" Jiang Yuan cursed himself a thousand times in his mind. This incredibly low behavior directly lowered his overall performance score by a whole level.

"Ahem! Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to check on your shoulder injury!"

In a moment of desperation, Jiang Yuan came up with a perfectly timed excuse.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I..." Huo Yun's expression immediately changed from startled to apologetic. She thought to herself, "Huo Yun, Huo Yun, why would someone hug you for no reason? You're judging a gentleman by your own petty standards!"

"It's alright, I'm used to being misunderstood! After all, some beautiful things start with misunderstandings!" Jiang Yuan secretly sighed that he was lucky to have this mask, otherwise even with his thick skin, he wouldn't have been able to come up with such a high-sounding reason.

"No, no, I just broke a bone and it hurts a bit, so I instinctively dodged it!" Huo Yun quickly explained. Not content with that, she tore open a part of her clothes on her shoulder to show Jiang Yuan her wound. "The broken bone is still healing, and it will probably be difficult to recover in a short time."

Jiang Yuan turned around decisively, refusing to look at the erotic scene. After turning around, he said coldly, "It's not convenient outside. Let's go back to your place and I'll treat your wounds for you! I'll also help you restore your talent while I'm at it. I have other things to do afterward, so I can't waste my time on you!"

"What a waste of time!" Huo Yun gritted his teeth in anger. This guy actually thought it was a waste of time to do this to me. I'll give him a good beating!

"I misspoke, it was a waste of unnecessary time!" Jiang Yuan realized his mistake and immediately corrected himself.

"Then let me take you inside first!"

Huo Yun stopped dwelling on the slip of the tongue and instead led Jiang Yuan directly to the camp.

An alliance has formed here. It's clear that many teams have established a mutually supportive relationship, forming strong alliances to prevent the Holy Spirit or alien beasts from taking advantage of any weakness.

The Frost Squad's base was next to the Mountain Fox Squad's, which explains why the two teams encountered the Holy Spirit together outside.
