Chapter 428 Joining Flameheart...
Chi Yanzhou: "Jin Xiao, we do have supplies and healing-type ability users, but that doesn't mean we're saviors..."
Besides, the supplies we have in Flameheart were obtained by everyone risking their lives! ...
Shi Xu added, "Si Sheng saved you, not us. We shouldn't be the ones to repay this debt of gratitude."
Besides, you know better than anyone about our relationship with Si Sheng. The fact that we've maintained a peaceful relationship with him for so many years because of Grandpa Si is already the biggest concession we've made!
Jin Xiao hurriedly waved his hand, beads of sweat forming on his forehead: "Brother Yan, Ah Xu, that's not what I meant... I absolutely didn't mean to morally blackmail you..."
He Zhuo: "Kidnapping me won't work; we have no morals whatsoever!"
Jin Xiao: "That's really not what I meant. Whether you're in Flameheart or not, we all want to join Flameheart."
Our Starburst faction is indeed facing a dire situation. Since A-Sheng was injured, our strength has been greatly reduced, the surrounding raiders are becoming increasingly rampant, and resources are becoming increasingly scarce...
So we want to find a way out.
If Flameheart is willing to accept us, all our supplies will belong to Flameheart.
Once inside Flameheart, we'll find our own way to obtain survival supplies; we won't just eat and drink for free.
Brother Yan, Ah Xu, brothers... there are quite a few of us in Xingmang with superpowers. Although our levels aren't high, we can do anything!
All we ask for is shelter, a place where we can survive...
Lu Nange raised an eyebrow slightly: "Dragon Soaring, Rock Solid... Beijing has so many bases, why does Mr. Jin insist on coming to our Flameheart?"
Jin Xiao gave a wry smile: "Miss Lu, before you knew that Brother Yan, Ah Xu, and the others were the Twelve Fiends..."
We want to join Flameheart for two reasons: First, Flameheart belongs to the Chi family base.
Secondly, the fact that Flameheart has opened its trading market indicates that you have sufficient reserves of resources.
The fact that a base is willing to provide supplies in this world means that its leader is definitely not a bad person...
Aunt Chunhua immediately chimed in, her tone filled with sincere admiration for Yanxin: "Miss Lu, who in the entire capital doesn't know that Yanxin is the best place to go!"
We follow the rules, have resources, everyone is equal, and everyone has a chance to succeed!
Other bases either impose exorbitant taxes or operate on a survival-of-the-fittest basis...!
Pepper nodded vigorously: "Yeah, idol! We can't get into Dragon Tower at all, and even if we could, we wouldn't want to go."
I heard that they're not the original Dragon Soar anymore, and even if you manage to get in, you'll be exploited at every level.
She shuddered as she spoke, a look of fear crossing her face: "As for the Rock... it's practically hell! Unless a woman possesses absolute power, she's not even considered an object there..."
Lin Shuang looked at Lu Nange with genuine admiration in her eyes: "We have carefully investigated the situation of each base."
Flame Heart is guarded by twelve evil gods, and the leader of the twelve evil gods is you—Lu Nange.
A female leader, which is unimaginable on other bases.
That's why we want to join Flameheart.
We believe that at Flameheart, women should receive the respect they deserve, rather than being treated as bargaining chips.
Jin Xiao looked at Chi Yanzhou and Lu Nange: "Brother Yan, Miss Lu, brothers... it's okay if we men can't join us."
The main concern is with Xiao Shuang and the other girls. Could they join Flameheart? At least give them a safe place to stay.
He pointed to the female members behind him and introduced them one by one: "Don't worry, they are all superhumans."
Xiao Shuang is the healing type, Hu Jiao is the water type, Aunt Chun Hua is the wood type, and she's especially good at planting...
He Zhuo: "Wait, you mean the men don't have to come, but the women absolutely have to join Flameheart?"
Jin Xiao: "Ever since A Sheng's legs got bad, our base has been targeted by Pan Shi."
Huang Pan's gang from Panshi would occasionally bring people to harass them.
Several of our female superhumans have already been kidnapped by them... We simply can't protect them!
A hush fell over the room.
The crackling sound of the flames was exceptionally clear, and the air was filled with the smell of burning and a oppressive atmosphere...
Chi Yanzhou: "Go back and tell Si Sheng that we can treat his leg."
Jin Xiao suddenly looked up, his eyes gleaming with hope: "Brother Yan, really? You're willing to save A-Sheng?"
Chi Yanzhou: "After he's cured, Grandpa Si's life-saving grace will be wiped clean... From now on, we'll be even."
Jin Xiao was stunned for a moment, then realized the weight of those words: "This..."
Chi Yanzhou: "Go back and ask Si Sheng. If possible, bring him to Yanxin for treatment tomorrow when it opens..."
Jin Xiao took a deep breath and nodded: "Brother Yan, okay! I'll go back and tell A-Sheng right away!"
"Aren't you leaving yet?" Chi Yanzhou said calmly. "Do you want us to take you back?"
"Let's go, let's go right now!" Jin Xiao hurriedly called to the members of Xingmang, "Then I'll bring Asheng to find you tomorrow!"
By the time Jin Xiao and his group crossed the earthen shields used to burn the zombies and went to the back to retrieve their vehicle, He Zhuo, Ji Xian, Gu Qi, and others had already begun putting out the fire.
Earth-based powers surged, burying the burning zombie corpses deep within; water-based powers poured forth, ensuring every spark was completely extinguished...
When Jin Xiao and his group slowly drove up in their old modified car, the road had already been smoothed out by He Zhuo and his group's earth-based abilities, showing no sign that a fierce battle had just taken place there.
Jin Xiao leaned out of the car window and waved to Yan Xin and the others: "See you tomorrow, guys! Thanks for today!"
Shi Xu: "Get lost!"
As the dilapidated modified cars gradually drove away and finally disappeared at the end of the road, the dust they raised slowly settled.
Unable to contain her curiosity, Gu Wan tugged at Gu Qi's sleeve and asked.
"Brother, what's the deal with this Si Sheng? I heard he even saved my life?"
Seeing He Zhuo already rubbing his hands together, excitedly performing, Gu Qi helplessly gestured for him to come: "Alright, you come, you come."
He Zhuo immediately cleared his throat: "To talk about Si Sheng... we have to start from when we were kids."
Grandpa Si and Grandpa Chi have a life-or-death bond. Years ago, during a mission, Grandpa Si took a bullet for Grandpa Chi—a true act of saving his life!
He paused, looking at everyone's focused expressions: "Later, when our elementary school organized a spring outing, a few of us—me, Yan Ge, A Qi, A Xu, and a few other classmates—were targeted by a group of kidnappers."
Although we've been exercising since we were little, we were still just kids. Those people just grabbed us and ran...
Grandpa Si, who was passing by, noticed something was wrong and, along with his guards, rescued us all!
