Chapter Forty-Nine: Avoiding Disaster



Of course, Ye Nianzhen wouldn't let Su Yue and the others succeed so easily, otherwise... they would be in a relatively passive position. Considering all aspects, the best course of action is to defeat Su Yue's group one by one.

Thinking about this, she suddenly realized that it seemed like she hadn't seen Mu Guang for a long time.

This vicious dog from the female protagonist's faction, who once burned innocent people alive in the base because he thought it was "fun," is probably plotting something bad again.

The base has Su Yue, whom he is devoted to, and his strategist, who shares his views. It is very likely that he has secretly made connections with them and is plotting something sinister behind their backs.

Ye Nianzhen frowned and asked Mingyuan, "Did you see that guy Mu Guang before you came?"

Mingyuan shook his head: "When the news of your accident came, I was the first to rush over. Luoshui and Leilang are probably still sleeping, and Muguang has been missing since last night."

really!

They haven't been seen all night; they must have gone to meet up with Su Yue and the others.

We were originally planning to keep a close eye on him, but if it weren't for this unexpected incident... he actually managed to find a loophole, so now everyone has to be extra vigilant.

Mu Guang's ability is a light-based superpower, which allows him to transform into light and become omnipresent and all-pervasive. Even now, he could very well be monitoring their every move from somewhere.

After a while, Luo Shui, Lei Lang, and the others who had heard the news arrived.

The little girl, Aji, was hugging Ye Nianzhen, looking like she was about to cry.

Ye Nianzhen patted her head and comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright. Every cloud has a silver lining. It seems your sister Ye has leveled up! Her superpower level is higher now!"

"Really? It doesn't hurt anymore?" the little girl asked, rubbing her red eyes.

"Of course, trust your sister."

The little girl nodded and sat down on a stool nearby, looking aggrieved.

The space next to the bed became empty, and Luo Shui immediately leaned over and touched Ye Nianzhen's forehead with her own: "Let me see, it's not hot anymore, it's not hot anymore, mmm."

Mingyuan couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed Luoshui by the collar and pulled her away. Luoshui immediately complained, "What are you doing? Why are you touching me like that!"

Mingyuan said unhappily, "Who started this? There's a thermometer, why are you still so close?"

Sure enough, there was a thermometer on the side, and the temperature was normal. It had just been used to measure Ye Nianzhen's forehead, so Luo Shui's action seemed unnecessary.

Luo Shui was a little embarrassed, but still refused to admit defeat, saying, "I have water-based abilities, so my measurements are more accurate!"

"What kind of twisted logic is this?" Ye Nianzhen was amused by their conversation.

Just then, the leader's daughter entered. Seeing a bunch of people crammed into the ward, she angrily pounded on the door: "Hey, hey, hey, what are you bunch of useless men doing crammed together? The patient needs fresh air and space! Get out!"

This rush finally made the ward much quieter.

Qianjin used her superpower to examine Ye Nianzhen's body, and couldn't help but complain: "So what if it's a water-based superpower? What did my wood-based superpower, which specializes in healing, say? Why are all the men around you so meddlesome?"

Ye Nianzhen was a little embarrassed: "The... gentleman next to me... Miss may have some misunderstanding about our relationship."

Qianjin glanced at Ye Nianzhen and scoffed, "Pfft, don't call me Miss, it's too formal. Just call me Dongfang Huixi."

"And what do you mean by 'misunderstanding'? Just look at the way Mingyuan and Qin Qiu are looking at you, tsk tsk tsk. It's not innocent!"

"..." Ye Nianzhen was speechless, her face turning as red as a monkey's bottom for the first time, unable to utter a rebuttal.

That's right, one has a love score of over 90%, and the other has 80%... Some couples probably can't even reach such a high score.

"Alright, alright, I won't tease you anymore, lest your fever rise and worsen your condition."

Dongfang Huixi was still finishing off Ye Nianzhen, who buried her head in her chest, quiet like a small animal.

However, the opportunity presented itself, and she looked up and abruptly asked Dongfang Huixi, "Huixi, do you still want to join our team?"

"Huh?" Even someone as clever and quirky as Dongfang Huixi was somewhat stunned.

After a while, she waved her hand dismissively: "No, no, there are too many men, it's so annoying!"

Ye Nianzhen still wouldn't give up: "It's okay, it's okay, I'll make them stay far away from you! I guarantee they won't bother you."

"No, no." Dongfang Huixi was still waving her hand. "How about that guy named Lei Lang? He doesn't look like someone to be trifled with. Ugh, just thinking about him makes me feel disgusted."

Ye Nianzhen: "..."

Thunder Wolf, what have you done now!

She asked cautiously, "Excuse me, what exactly did he do? I'll deal with him later."

Dongfang Huixi frowned and said, "He didn't do anything, but I feel physically nauseous just looking at him."

Ye Nianzhen fell silent once again: "..."

There's nothing we can do about it; it seems like it's a case of incompatibility to the point of being like people whose birth charts don't match.

It's all Thunder Wolves' fault for their shady dealings and tarnishing their team's reputation! They're despicable!

Thanks to Dongfang Huixi's treatment, Ye Nianzhen was able to be discharged from the hospital in the afternoon.

Stepping out of the hospital and breathing in the fresh air, Ye Nianzhen thought to herself that she needed to deal with Mu Guang, this potential threat, first.

I hadn't walked two steps when I heard a commotion over there, as if something had happened.

Ye Nianzhen exchanged glances with several people in the group and walked there together.

When they arrived at the destination, they discovered that Mu Guang was the one surrounded in the center, with a group of people pointing and whispering about him as if he had done something terribly wrong.

One person said, "I could tell this guy wasn't a good person at first glance. He was acting suspiciously last night. He must have killed the Nen user in our team!"

Another person said, "Yes, I can corroborate that. He also said something like... our base is poorly managed, and it's easy for bad guys to sneak in. I think he's the bad guy!"

The chattering was so loud it gave Ye Nianzhen a headache.

Mu Guang, who was surrounded, keenly sensed the approach of Ye Nianzhen and the others, and glanced in their direction.

Mingyuan and the others adopted an indifferent attitude, and Mu Guang narrowed his eyes, returning a disdainful glance.

When he saw Ye Nianzhen, he refused to meet her gaze and silently turned his head away.

Seeing the situation escalating, and knowing Mu Guang's volatile temper, Ye Nianzhen realized that the situation wouldn't end without several deaths. She squeezed into the encirclement and stood in front of Mu Guang.

It was a very delicate position. Mu Guang was being criticized by everyone, while Ye Nianzhen stood in front of him, as if shielding him from those malicious accusations.

"Everyone, listen to me."

Ye Nianzhen spoke up. At first, no one paid attention to what a little girl had to say. However, as Mingyuan, Qin Qiu, Lei Lang and the others entered the encirclement one after another, they gradually fell silent and observed Ye Nianzhen and the others warily.
