Chapter 327, Turning a Blind Eye
Undeterred by the man's superior appearance, Luo Rui placed the vines in her hands in a defensive posture and sternly asked, "Who are you?!"
Xie Chengzhi felt that this man had some demands. He thought about it, widened his eyes, and said a name in horror: "Qin Huai?!"
Qin Huai? Luo Rui was also stunned. "Isn't Qin Huai at Yancheng Base? How...why is he here?" They had received news at Xiling Base that Chen Bai had led Group Z to Yancheng Base. They had assumed that a meeting between the two groups would result in a mutually assured defeat.
However, Qin Huaian appeared safely near the Xiling base, looking unharmed and not affected at all by the Shen family's psychics.
Not knowing how long he had been listening in the dark, Luo Rui suppressed her fear and tried to sound normal. "How dare you show up near the Xiling base? From what I hear, the Shen family is looking for you everywhere, right?"
"Yeah, those people are as annoying as flies. I don't want to conflict with them for now, so I can only stay away from them." Qin Huai smiled slightly, and the glimmer in his eyes became more gentle. "I didn't expect that there would be an unexpected surprise when I went out this time."
Luo Rui wanted to say something, but Xie Chengzhi beside him suddenly stiffened, his bright eyes lost focus, and he walked towards Qin Huai step by step.
"Chengzhi?" Knowing about Qin Huai's abilities, Luo Rui grabbed Xie Chengzhi's hand, but the man forcefully shook it off. She looked at Qin Huai, "What did you do to Chengzhi?!"
"I think his ability level is quite good, so I want to take him back and train him." Qin Huai smiled harmlessly, "You are also quite good, but..."
He glanced at her powerless feet and shrugged regretfully: "I don't like being disabled."
The man was about to leave. Luo Rui didn't care about the half-dead Luo Yuting anymore and pushed the wheelchair to chase him: "Qin Huai! Give Cheng Zhi back to me! You bastard! You... Ugh!"
The woman's voice stopped abruptly. She lowered her head, and the sharp ice pierced her chest. The other end of the ice blade was in Xie Chengzhi's hand.
His empty eyes stared at her steadily, with no extra expression on his face, like an expressionless machine.
"Hey, finally shut up." Qin Huai sighed, without even looking at Luo Rui, and ordered Xie Chengzhi, "Let's go, I'll take you to the arena to have some fun~"
"Qin...Qin Huai!" Luo Rui fell from the wheelchair, clutching the shallow wound on her chest and gritting her teeth, "Stop! You...Chengzhi, don't leave, don't listen to him...Chengzhi!"
"Stop yelling, he can't hear you." Qin Huai stopped and looked up at the moon in the sky. He didn't know what he sensed, but a hint of mischievous excitement flashed in his eyes. "How about this, you kill Jiang Ran and bring her head to me in exchange, and I'll give your boyfriend back to you, how about that?"
Without giving Luo Rui a chance to object, he clapped his hands lightly, applauding his own idea: "This is a great idea. It's decided."
He led Xie Chengzhi away, not forgetting to remind her: "You better hurry up, I can't guarantee that your frail boyfriend can stay in the arena for three days, hahahaha."
The man took Xie Chengzhi and disappeared into the depths of the dark woods in an instant. Luo Rui lay on the ground, watching the two men leave, her fingers deeply embedded in the soil.
——Chengzhi, just wait, I will definitely come to save you!
…
When Qin Huai appeared, Luo Yuting had not yet completely lost consciousness. The moment he heard Qin Huai's name, the man sighed in his heart.
He was really unlucky today. Not only was he plotted against by his own sister, but he also happened to meet the evil Qin Huai when he was in the most embarrassing moment.
I was originally thinking whether I could survive from Luo Rui, but meeting Qin Huai meant that all my chances of survival were cut off.
The man almost gave up completely and closed his eyes waiting to die.
Unexpectedly, Qin Huai seemed not to see him and led Xie Chengzhi away.
Luo Yuting opened his eyes again with the last bit of consciousness.
Knowing that she couldn't catch up with Qin Huai, Luo Rui struggled to climb back into the wheelchair.
The wound on her chest was not deep. She pressed the wound with one hand and gathered her supernatural power with the other hand - Qin Huai had been here before, and this time, she could completely blame Qin Huai for Luo Yuting's death.
Let Si Xu fight Qin Huai, she will always find a chance to rescue Xie Chengzhi.
The woman took one last look at her brother, closed her eyes as if she couldn't bear it, and waved the vine in her hand to stab Luo Yuting.
Luo Yuting did not look away. His dark eyes were fixed on his sister. His emotions were complicated and finally turned into deep regret.
I don’t know if that stupid woman Jiang Suxin managed to escape. He is not with her. I wonder if she was fed to the zombies?
If that were the case, all his efforts would be in vain. That woman was very stingy and would definitely not be willing to waste the opportunity that others had worked so hard to create for her.
She must have escaped danger.
As the man thought about this, his lips, which were pursed into a line, curved slightly.
…
The moment the vines attacked, a figure jumped out from the woods and suddenly blocked Luo Yuting's way.
The man grabbed the vine with one hand, exerted a little force, and crushed the vine that condensed supernatural power between his fingers.
Luo Rui exclaimed in horror: "Si Xu?!"
Why is he here? Why is he here so soon!
"See you again so soon, Luo Rui~"
Another voice that made her furious sounded from close behind her. Luo Rui bit her lips until they bled, her chest heaving violently as she murmured, "Jiang! Ran! Ran!"
"Hey, you called me?" Jiang Ran walked to her with a smile, stretched his wrist, and in the woman's hateful gaze, he swung his hand and slapped her face hard.
With a crisp sound, Luo Rui felt dizzy and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.
A trace of blood oozed from the woman's ear, and half of her cheek was red and swollen. Where was her usual pride and reserve? Jiang Ran glanced at her coldly, shook off his burning hand, and jumped to Si Xu's side: "How is Luo Yuting?"
"He's lost too much blood. He's beyond saving." Si Xu briefly examined the wound and concluded, "When he dies, we'll dig a grave and bury him. That way we don't have to carry him back."
Looking at the injured man whose eyelids were still trembling but unable to open, Jiang Ran sighed: "Is there no cure for the chest wound?"
There was a bloody hole on the man's chest, a wound left by the wood-type supernatural power.
"He's been able to hold on for so long. This guy has incredible perseverance." Jiang Ran sighed, but couldn't bear it anymore. "Si Xu, he seems to be in a lot of pain. How about you give him a knife and let him die more peacefully?"
Si Xu formed a space blade and said, "Move away. The scene will be too bloody and not suitable for you."
After saying so much, Jiang Ran realized that this man was not joking with him, he was really ready to give Luo Yuting a quick death.
She decisively hugged his arm and said repeatedly: "Wait, wait, I have an idea to save him."
Si Xu tilted his head: "What?"
Did he really not expect this at all? Jiang Ran said tentatively: "Qi Yao was attacked at the base once, and her injuries were similar to Luo Yuting's. At that time, Captain Gu brought two people over, one of whom was probably a healing type..."
"Oh." When she reminded him, Si Xu remembered Lin You, whom he had long forgotten, the only person with healing abilities he knew so far.
"Let's take him back."
"Si Xu, Luo Yuting is seriously injured. You should take him away first." Jiang Ran said, "This place is not far from the Xiling base. I'll deal with Luo Rui first and then come find you."
