Mu Guang wasn't unwilling to follow Ye Nianzhen.
On the contrary, deep down he secretly hoped that Ye Nianzhen would take him away, so that he could openly and swagger with her, while saying things like, "This is what you insisted on."
But now, her gaze fell on that cold, gloomy, and boring guy. She told him to go with Gu Shibing and kept staring at him. How could this make him feel inexplicably angry?
Mu Guang couldn't understand his emotions for a while, but the system told Ye Nianzhen that Mu Guang's favorability rating had increased to 30%.
Ye Nianzhen found it quite interesting; ignoring him actually increased her affection for him, though she didn't know what her psychology was.
But right now, she doesn't have the energy to deal with Mu Guang. Mu Guang has been by her side for so many days, and the extent of his bad deeds is limited to whispering to himself or stirring up trouble between her and others. But Gu Shibing is different. Ye Nianzhen doesn't think he is someone who can be influenced or educated.
Although Mu Guang is bad, he has emotions. His logic is different from ordinary people, but that doesn't mean he lacks basic logic.
But Gu Shibing is a cold-blooded madman.
His madness was calm, carrying a gloomy deathly aura; it wasn't sharp, but it was enough to send chills down one's spine.
Su Yue was surrounded by madmen, but Gu Shibing was particularly outrageous... yet very quiet.
In his previous life, Ye Nianzhen hadn't paid much attention to this person until... at Su Yue's request, he went to a base that refused to submit to them and killed everyone there.
He extracted their souls directly. There wasn't a drop of blood on the ground, and those people even died peacefully, but... no one could help but feel disgusted by that scene.
"Let's go, Mu Guang." Gu Shibing probably genuinely believed that the conflict here was resolved, and said calmly behind Mu Guang.
Seeing that Mu Guang still didn't move, he tilted his head in confusion and added, "If you don't leave, according to Su Mo, it's also possible to take your soul with you."
Mu Guang's defenses were raised, and he said in an exaggerated tone, "What did you say? You're threatening me?"
Gu Shibing remained expressionless: "Threat... no, I'm telling the truth."
Ye Nianzhen found it somewhat amusing; the way he spoke the truth was truly ironic, and Mu Guang probably thought he was being provocative.
Sure enough, Mu Guang's expression darkened as he said, "Gu Shibing, you don't think I can't beat you just because I'm not fighting you, do you?"
"I can go wherever I want, and neither you nor Su Mo can stop me!"
"I'm not fighting you because your abilities are disgusting, understand?"
Mu Guang's cold words undoubtedly made the atmosphere even more tense.
A battle seemed imminent, but Ye Nianzhen was not keen on facing a ghost-type ability user.
She decided to grab Mu Guang and leave.
She winked at the Thunder Wolf behind her, and the Thunder Wolf nodded knowingly.
But when Lei Lang rushed out, he attacked Gu Shibing directly. Ye Nianzhen was speechless. He didn't understand why he couldn't ask for help. Did he have to be so confident?
The battle began, and Lei Lang turned to attack Gu Shibing. Ye Nianzhen took the opportunity to get close to Mu Guang, grabbed him by the back of his neck, and ran away.
Of course, a grown man isn't so easy to carry, so in reality, Ye Nianzhen ran ahead while Mu Guang jogged behind her.
"Hey woman! This makes me lose all my dignity!"
He took the time to voice his protest.
Ye Nianzhen ignored him and focused on running. She had to come back to retrieve Lei Lang later, so she couldn't let him actually fight. It would be troublesome if he got hurt.
Mu Guang was being quite noisy, so Ye Nianzhen had no choice but to stop: "What, do you really want to go back?"
"Su Mo wants to kill you, didn't you realize?"
Mu Guang was somewhat stunned; he seemed genuinely not to have noticed: "I don't believe it."
Ye Nianzhen rolled her eyes: "Does Su Mo look like the kind of person who would tolerate an insider switching sides without permission?"
Mu Guang closed his eyes and pretended, "Who's on your side?"
Ye Nianzhen ignored him: "Hurry up, send you away, I need to go back and help."
Mu Guang exploded: "Am I some kind of burden? A level four ability user, and you're talking to me like a child!"
Ye Nianzhen: "Level four, Gu Shibing seems to be level five?"
Mu Guang: "..."
Why bring up something you shouldn't talk about!

On the other side, Gu Shibing and Lei Lang fought a few rounds and realized that neither of them were easy to deal with, so they separated and confronted each other at a distance.
Suddenly, a beam of light pierced between the two; it was Mu Guang, eager to prove his usefulness.
"Keep an eye on the woman, I'm going to catch this guy!"
Suddenly his body jolted, and he fell to the ground.
Ye Nianzhen caught up and, seeing this scene, wondered what she had said again.
Gu Shibing's attack was aimed directly at the soul, and although Mu Guang was fast, he could not dodge such an attack.
She quickly picked up the person and stepped aside, then felt a sharp pain in her back. It turned out that Gu Shibing had summoned a ghost to attack her back.
This ghostly attack has a cooling effect and weak physical impact, but it weakens the soul.
In other words, you will feel cold, uncomfortable, and weak.
Ye Nianzhen felt a little unwell, and Mu Guang felt a surge of blood rushing to his head when he saw her being attacked.
He's been stuck at level four for a long time; breaking through a bottleneck requires a certain opportunity.
Now might be the right time. His energy surged, and once it turned into light, its speed became even harder to detect, penetrating everywhere. Then he stopped in front of Gu Shibing and saluted him with blinding light.
Under such intense light, it's impossible to summon ghosts. In a sense, Mu Guang and Gu Shibing are mutually restraining.
Having subdued Gu Shibing, Lei Lang quickly brought him to his knees.
Ye Nianzhen was pleasantly surprised. She hadn't expected that not only had Mu Guang not been poached, but one of them had also returned.
However, she was unsure how to deal with Gu Shibing after he was captured.
At this moment, the system told her that Gu Shibing was also a romanceable character.
Ye Nianzhen shrugged. Okay, it's the same old story.
She actually has quite a bit of experience when it comes to dog training.
She immediately ordered Lei Lang to tie the man up and take him back to their residence.
When they returned there, Mingyuan and the others were also there. They all had different expressions when they saw that they had brought back a strange person wearing a cloak.
Mingyuan was somewhat wary, and his emotions were a bit hard to define.
Qin Qiu didn't really care, but he sensed that this person was also a strong individual, only... his aura was very weak?
The reason for the weak aura is that Gu Shibing has separated a part of his soul to control those ghosts.
Therefore, he wore a cloak, could not be exposed to the light, was physically weak, and had dark circles under his eyes.
This is a very harmful superpower. The stronger the ability, the worse the user's vitality becomes, eventually turning them into a walking corpse.
