Chapter 185 Awkward Ambiguity
The roar behind him was still loud. Qiao Yu pursed his lips slightly, and his expression unconsciously became a little nervous.
She could already vaguely hear the sound of alien claws scraping against the car body.
The last one to arrive was the less damaged car of Xiang Heng's team. With only Xiang Heng and two of his team members in the car, they would likely be overwhelmed if the aliens caught up with them.
"Ayu, have Yu Qingchuan go to the back and find a way to cut down the trees on both sides to block the alien species' path."
The road conditions were extremely bad. Even if the accelerator was fully depressed, the car wouldn't be able to speed up. If this continued, Xiang Heng and the other two at the end of the team would likely be devoured by the aliens.
Since they didn't want to expose their special abilities, they could only let Yu Qingchuan solve the problem.
When Qiao Yu heard Jiang Zhan say this, he knew that his worries were not unnecessary, so he wanted to find a slightly larger space next to the car, stick his head out of the window and call Yu Qingchuan.
Unexpectedly, before Qiao Yu found the opportunity, he heard the sound of the mutant tree collapsing behind him.
Qiao Yu felt a little relieved. It seemed that Yu Qingchuan and they had the same idea.
With the mutant tree blocking the way, the movement of the alien species behind him was indeed slowed down a lot.
But Qiao Yu looked at the downhill section ahead and took out the submachine gun from the space again.
After going down the slope, even if they walked out of Mingxia Mountain, judging from the noises around them, there might be alien species blocking them from the front, so they had to prepare in advance.
Sure enough, not long after Qiao Yu took out his gun, several alien species appeared in front of them and pounced on them.
At this time, the road had begun to widen, and the distance between the mutant trees on both sides was not as close as before. Qiao Yu watched several alien species rushing out from the gaps between the mutant trees, and immediately leaned out of the car window, raised his gun, and began to shoot wildly.
Yu Qingchuan heard the gunshots and flew over from behind, avoiding Qiao Yu's side and continuously blocking the aliens on the other side.
Seeing more and more alien species rushing towards him, Jiang Zhan did not slow down. He wrapped the car with his mental power and crashed into it directly.
After knocking the alien in front of him dozens of meters away, Jiang Zhan silently swept over six wind blades and began to attack indiscriminately among the alien group.
Seeing this, Wang Zha also started to spray fire at the alien groups on both sides from the roof of the car.
The scorching flames made everyone in the transport vehicle even more suffocated, but at this critical moment, no one complained and everyone gritted their teeth and endured.
Finally, when the convoy stepped onto the road a few hundred meters away from Mingxia Mountain, the number of alien species behind them began to gradually decrease.
Qiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to call Yu Qingchuan back, but he saw Yu Qingchuan lose his balance in the air and began to descend rapidly.
Qiao Yu was shocked, "Oh no, he didn't slow down!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiao Yu took out three jade seeds from the space, quickly gave birth to jade vines, then connected the head and tail of the jade vines, and threw them towards Yu Qingchuan who was falling rapidly.
Yu Qingchuan's body had shrunk visibly, but it shrank back to human form in just a few seconds.
Qiao Yu controlled the jade vine, tightly wrapped around Yu Qingchuan's body before he landed on the ground, and then pulled him onto the roof of the car.
Hua Yue, who was on the roof of the car, almost had her heart stop when she saw Yu Qingchuan falling from the sky.
Later, when he saw Qiao Yu using a vine-like plant to pull Yu Qingchuan back, he was stunned for a moment again.
What is this? A mutant plant?
Why are the mutated plants driven by Qiao Yu?
Hua Yue was puzzled, but now was obviously not the time to dwell on such things. Hua Yue looked at the pale-faced Yu Qingchuan in front of her, immediately propped herself up, crawled over and checked his body.
At this time, Qiao Yu also climbed up through the car window. Wang Zha saw Qiao Yu and wagged his tail happily.
Qiao Yu patted Wang Zha's head, but his eyes were fixed on Hua Yue who was examining Yu Qingchuan. "Where is he injured?"
Huayue frowned and shook her head, "No... no wounds."
Yu Qingchuan had no injuries on his body. Apart from his shoes being blown and falling off, even the corners of his clothes were not torn.
But if it's physical exhaustion...
It took just over an hour from the time he went to explore the route until the convoy left Mingxia Mountain.
In such a short time, it shouldn't be possible...
Hua Yue was puzzled, but she saw Qiao Yu heaved a sigh of relief, his expression relaxed as he said, "It's okay, he should have advanced."
Qiao Yu pretended to take out a handful of crystal cores from his pocket and stuffed them into Yu Qingchuan's hand.
Sure enough, Yu Qingchuan quickly opened his eyes, grabbed the crystal core and began to absorb it without hesitation.
"Advance?" Hua Yue stared, her face full of disbelief. "Are we all going to advance?"
Qiao Yu nodded, "Yes. All aliens and mutants, including xenomorphs and mutant plants and animals, will advance. It's just that the timeframe is different."
Qiao Yu patted Wang Zha's head again, then propped himself up and stood up. As he prepared to return to the carriage, he continued to say to Hua Yue, "So if you don't want to be bullied, you must keep training yourself and make yourself stronger."
Hua Yue listened to Qiao Yu's words and suddenly began to doubt her previous judgment.
Qiao Yu and the others... don't really seem like bad guys...
From time to time, alien species still appeared around, but fortunately their numbers had been greatly reduced, and there would basically be no problem relying on Qiao Yu and Wang Zha alone.
Only after Yu Qingchuan absorbed all the crystal cores that Qiao Yu had stuffed into his head in one breath did he feel much better.
He lay on his back on the roof with his eyes closed. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly felt a weight on his body and a soft touch on his chest.
Yu Qingchuan opened his eyes in surprise, and suddenly met Hua Yue's eyes, who looked embarrassed.
The two of them were face to face, and they could even feel each other's breathing clearly.
Further up, there was a royal bomb that was propped up above their heads and spewing fire forward.
——It was obvious that when Wang Zha turned around just now, he accidentally knocked Hua Yue over, and she fell on Yu Qingchuan.
"I'm... I'm sorry..." Hua Yue's face was so red that it looked like blood was dripping out. She frantically tried to get up, but Wang Zha was still lying on top of them, and she couldn't hold herself up at all.
Yu Qingchuan's expression wasn't much better. He held his breath, trying to ignore the sensation on his chest, until the tips of his ears turned red.
It was unknown how long it took, until the cries of the surrounding alien species gradually weakened, and Wang Zha finally took a small step back.
Hua Yue took the opportunity and jumped off Yu Qingchuan with a "whoosh", not even caring about the wound.
"...How is your wound?" In order to ease the embarrassment, Yu Qingchuan tried hard to find a topic.
Hearing this, Hua Yue did relax a little and smiled slightly, "I'm much better now, thank you, Doctor Yu. How about you? How are you feeling now?"
There was still a blush on her face, and she looked particularly beautiful when she smiled.
Yu Qingchuan glanced at her, and somehow, he suddenly thought of Cheng Sinian's words "Spring is coming..."
The crimson color on Yu Qingchuan's ears, which had just faded, returned.
She couldn't help but curse Cheng Sinian in her heart, but she kept a gentle expression on her face and whispered, "I... am much better now."
Hua Yue accidentally glanced at the red tip of Yu Qingchuan's ear and rubbed the corner of her clothes a little nervously, "...Yeah."
The conversation between the two came to an abrupt end, and the atmosphere became awkward yet a little ambiguous.
Wang Zha lay on the roof of the car, looking at this and that with his pair of dark green eyes, sweeping his big tail back and forth, looking quite speechless.
"cough……"
After an unknown amount of time, Yu Qingchuan coughed lightly and spoke first, "Uh... I have something else to talk to the captain about, so I'll get back to the car first..."
"Oh, okay, okay..." Hua Yue nodded like pounding garlic, looking like she couldn't wait for him to leave.
Seeing this, Yu Qingchuan frowned slightly and suddenly felt a little stuffy in his chest.
But in the end he didn't say anything and just climbed down through the car window with his head down.
