Liu Dayong was taken aback at first, then laughed awkwardly and said.
"Miss Ye, what are you joking about? I went to great lengths to have my men prepare these dishes to celebrate your elimination of the Little Days people. How could I possibly have poisoned them? The meat is, of course, animal meat. If you don't believe me, try it."
Ye Yunxi took in Liu Dayong's expression, sneered, and looked at Liu Dayong coldly.
"Are you kidding? I'm not. Or, why don't you try some first?"
Liu Dayong broke out in a cold sweat under Ye Yunxi's gaze. He wasn't going to eat any of that; if he did, he'd be the one who fell into a deep sleep. What would he do then?
She looked at Ye Yunxi with a smile.
“Miss Ye, you’re too kind. This food was prepared as a celebration banquet for you. Even if you wanted to eat it, you should wait until the guests had started eating first. Also, I don’t know where I went wrong to make you treat me this way. Could you please point it out to me?”
Ye Yunxi said, playing with the wine glass in her hand.
"Captain Liu's words are quite nice, so let me explain. The meat on the table is the meat of our compatriots, the people living in the back mountains. You have a business relationship with them."
You are responsible for providing them with humans to experiment on, and they provide you with conveniences, the specifics of which are known only to you.
You sent a distress call to our First Base, using us to help you eliminate the "little ones," and then you'd wipe us all out and make us your food. Base Commander Liu, tell me, am I right?"
As Liu Dayong listened to Ye Yunxi recount everything word by word, he felt somewhat embarrassed, and his eyes sharpened.
"Hehehe, what are you talking about, Miss Ye? I don't understand what you're saying at all."
Ye Yunxi playfully slammed the wine glass in her hand to the ground. The wine instantly bubbled and sputtered.
"Chief Liu, are you going to continue making excuses?"
Everyone saw that the red wine Ye Yunxi had spilled on the ground immediately started to bubble with white foam, which meant that it was poisoned.
Liu Dayong stopped pretending and his smile became particularly sinister.
“Miss Ye is right, I was just pretending. I also have dealings with the little people. All the food on the table is poisoned, and the meat isn't from animals, it's from two-legged sheep. You don't know how delicious two-legged sheep meat is; one bite will leave you with an unforgettable memory.”
Also, I want to thank you for killing so many lowly people, which allowed us to live for a while. Since you've already discovered us, then stay!
Immediately afterward, Liu Dayong shouted, "Brothers, attack! Kill them!"
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng quickly shielded Professor Hu, Old Master Ye, and Gu Qingqing behind them.
They went into battle mode, weapons in hand, vigilantly watching their surroundings.
They knew these people had eaten the flesh of their own kind and could no longer be called human. Taking them to the base would only harm more people. Therefore, their goal for tonight's battle was to kill all the people at the base.
Several men ran out from both sides and surrounded Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng.
Liu Dayong said with absolute certainty.
"Give up the struggle. I know you didn't bring many people. Although you killed Xiao Rizi and the others, you were also injured in the process. You think that my struggle will only cause me more pain."
Professor Hu snorted coldly.
"No matter what we do, you won't let us go. Since that's the case, we have to fight and carve out a way for ourselves."
Liu Dayong sneered. "Very well, since that's how it is, brothers, get them!"
Immediately afterward, Liu Dayong's men swarmed forward. Ye Yunxi, Fu Heng, Li Yan, Fang Dui, and the others opened fire on the men charging towards them.
Upon hearing the gunshots, the soldiers inside the factory immediately ran out to support Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng.
Soldiers lying in ambush outside the base also heard the gunshots. They saw a soldier leading about a hundred soldiers rushing into the base towards the source of the gunfire.
Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng, while protecting Professor Hu and Old Man Ye, fought against the enemy.
Just then, all the starving soldiers rushed out of the factory and clashed with the base's men. Some were fighting hand-to-hand, some with guns, and some with knives. They were all locked in combat. But they were far outnumbered by Liu Dayong's forces.
Ye Yunxi was momentarily distracted when someone from the base slashed her arm from behind with a knife. The pain made her instinctively fire a shot.
Gu Qingqing and the others were shocked to see Ye Yunxi injured.
"Sister Yunxi!"
Fu Heng knocked away the people around him and ran to Ye Yunxi's side, standing back to back with her as they fought the enemy. He asked worriedly.
"Xixi, how is she?"
Ye Yunxi replied to him while fighting the enemy.
"I'm fine. Let's deal with these people first."
Just then, soldiers outside the base rushed in and joined Ye Yunxi and her group in fighting Liu Dayong's men.
With their help, Ye Yunxi and Fu Heng had an easier time.
Fu Heng used his coat to take out two better pistols from his spatial storage and fired at Liu Dayong's men.
Thanks to their efforts, Liu Dayong's number of men gradually decreased.
When Liu Dayong saw that his men had dwindled, he ran away to hide as if his life depended on it.
A short while later, Liu Dayong's men were all killed by Ye Yunxi and her group, while their own men also suffered casualties, mostly injuries.
