Who are you?
Seeing that Luo Yue's visit was ill-intentioned, Jiang Ling immediately shrank behind the bearded man, only sticking her neck out to ask.
Luo Yue crossed her arms, leaned against the telephone pole, and sneered, "Naturally, she's someone you can't afford to offend."
Upon hearing Luo Yue's words, Jiang Ling immediately began to have second thoughts.
If the other side turns out to be a tough opponent, and Meng Yuke isn't by her side right now, she'll be the one who suffers if a conflict breaks out rashly.
As the saying goes, a wise man doesn't suffer a loss he can avoid.
Jiang Ling quickly made a decision, "Let's go!"
Upon hearing the word "leave," the bearded man and Zheng Zhe immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
They were genuinely afraid that Jiang Ling would recklessly confront the girl opposite her.
Although the girl was alone, her clothing and overall demeanor suggested that she was no ordinary person.
If a conflict breaks out, they will definitely be the ones who suffer.
The three of them hurriedly turned to leave.
"stop!"
Luo Yue gently waved her right hand, and a beam of earth-yellow light suddenly shot out from her hand.
In an instant, a majestic earth-elemental energy leopard appeared in front of her.
Then, like a bolt of lightning, he pounced on Jiang Ling and the other two, blocking their path.
The earth-elemental energy leopard was covered in a thick layer of mud armor, with a dark yellow light flowing across its surface, faintly exuding a powerful level six aura.
Those sharp claws and pointed fangs made Jiang Ling's face turn pale instantly.
"Miss, calm down, calm down!"
The bearded man quickly turned around, forcing a friendly and ingratiating smile at Luo Yue, "What happened just now was all a misunderstanding, we—"
"Misunderstand?"
Luo Yue snorted coldly, interrupting the bearded man, "To tell you the truth, I've been watching you for five days."
She took a step closer to Jiang Ling and the other two, her gaze growing increasingly cold.
“Ever since you entered the Beijing base, you’ve been constantly trying to find out about the Shen family and my sister An’an. You’ve been acting suspiciously; you don’t seem like good people!”
"No, no, no, we are good people!"
Zheng Zhe shook his head violently. "We are from the Shenshi base. Our base leader told us to come to the Beijing base to register."
"We're in cahoots with the Beijing base; we're not bad guys."
"Then why are you trying to find out about the Shen family and my sister An'an?"
Luo Yue naturally knew their identities and their purpose in coming to the Beijing base.
However, at this moment, she pretended to be ignorant even though she knew the truth.
That guy named Meng Yuke, and his men, might not actually be bad.
But these three people in front of me, especially the one named Jiang Ling, are definitely not good people.
Those fox-like eyes always held a calculating look, which made people dislike them.
"We, we..."
The bearded man went to see Jiang Ling, hoping she would explain herself.
Jiang Ling kept her head down, refusing to meet his gaze or offer any explanation.
The bearded man cursed inwardly, but had no choice but to continue taking the blame.
"On our way to Beijing, we heard a lot about the Shen family. We...we admired them and couldn't help but want to learn more."
Meeting Luo Yue's ambiguous smile, the bearded man quickly came up with a clever idea and blurted out some nice words.
"oh?"
Luo Yue withdrew her supernatural power, glanced at the bearded man, and slowly said, "Since you admire the Shen family so much, why don't you stay?"
"No--"
Upon hearing this, Zheng Zhe instinctively wanted to refuse.
"Um?"
Luo Yue's gaze suddenly darkened, and an earthy yellow light emanated from her hand again as she stared coldly at him.
Zheng Zhe immediately covered his mouth, not daring to utter a sound, inwardly weeping.
Waaaaah, the people in Beijing are so fierce!
"Miss, if you could really marry into the Shen family, we would be a hundred, a thousand times more willing..."
However, our base commander has always doted on my young lady, and before we set off, he specifically instructed us to take her back to the Shenyang base as soon as we finished our business.
So, you see this—”
The bearded man looked at Luo Yue with a troubled expression.
Luo Yue saw right through his little scheme.
Using one's status to intimidate others?
That's really embarrassing, her status is much higher than theirs.
After all, in this apocalypse, strength is what matters.
"It's alright, you can stay here. I'll send someone to the Shenshi base to deliver a message."
"I'm sure your base commander wouldn't refuse to give the Luo family any face."
"The Luo...Luo family!"
The bearded man and Zheng Zhe exchanged a glance, their hearts sinking.
Having been in Beijing for so many days, even without them deliberately inquiring, news about the six families in Beijing kept creeping into their ears.
Although the Luo family is the least powerful of the six families, they are still not something that their Shenshi base can contend with.
Moreover, the sinking city base, which is composed of various forces, is not very united.
It could fall apart at any time, with each group going its own way.
If those deputy base commanders were to find out that they had offended the Luo family in Beijing, they probably wouldn't be able to go back.
Perhaps, in order to avoid the Luo family holding a grudge against the Shen City base, even their base chief will have to step down.
"Little Yueyue, you've grown quite imposing in just a few days!"
Just as the bearded man and his companions were at a loss, a clear male voice rang out.
The survivors who had already gathered around, eager to watch the spectacle, quickly made way for him when they heard the sound.
A burly man dressed in brown-gray combat gear approached from outside the crowd.
"Fu Tianyuan, what are you doing here?"
When Luo Yue saw him, she toned down her imposing manner and became much more peaceful.
