However, Huo Fei remained unmoved, firmly shaking his head, "I still can't let you go!"
Huo Yusen raised an eyebrow.
Before he could speak, Huo Fei continued, "Xiao Jiu, let me finish! General Zheng has sent the Lone Wolf Squad! Moreover, Miss Qi Qi has also found several people from the Xuanmen sect. With Miss Qi Qi's cooperation, they will definitely be able to rescue her soon! If you go now, you'll only cause trouble!"
"Besides, the doctors haven't figured out why you suddenly fainted. You wouldn't want the old lady to come and watch you, would you?"
The moment the words "causing trouble" were uttered, Huo Yusen's excitement cooled abruptly, as if doused with a bucket of ice water.
He lowered his eyes and looked at his legs, which he could no longer feel. Never before had he felt such disgust for being disabled!
The boy's mood plummeted, and Huo Fei couldn't help but blame himself. He wanted to comfort him, but didn't know what to say.
There was no other way; if he didn't touch Xiao Jiu's sore spot, he was worried that Xiao Jiu might impulsively do something irreversible.
After a long silence, Huo Yusen finally relented, "I can skip the field, but I want to go to the rear to see the rescue from a first-person perspective!"
Since this was his bottom line, Huo Fei nodded without hesitation, "Okay, once the doctor says you're fine, I'll take you there!"
"Um."
Huo Fei pressed the call button by the bedside, and the doctor came over to give Huo Yusen a detailed physical examination.
During this time, Huo Fei called Zheng Lao and explained Huo Yusen's request.
Old Zheng agreed and sent the address of the rear of the operation to Huo Fei's mobile phone.
So after the doctor confirmed that Huo Yusen's indicators were all normal, Huo Fei discharged him from the hospital and drove him to his destination.
On the way, Huo Yusen remembered something, "You just said that Qiqi called on people from the Xuanmen sect to help her, what's going on?"
Thinking of this, Huo Fei couldn't help but sigh in his heart again, realizing that Miss Qi Qi's abilities were completely beyond their comprehension.
After all, who would have thought that paper figures could actually speak, deliver messages, and even lead the way?
"The Taoist priest we met at the orchard last time learned that Miss Qiqi had gone missing and went to the Ji family to look for her. As it turned out, he ran into the paper doll that Miss Qiqi had sent back to deliver a message. Right now, Miss Qiqi is leading that Taoist priest and his junior brothers to the secret laboratory. They simultaneously relayed the route to the Ji family, and coincidentally, Elder Zheng also contacted the Ji family to express his willingness to help. That's how we got the exact route and information and organized an operation immediately."
After briefly explaining the situation, Huo Fei glanced at Huo Yusen's expression in the rearview mirror and added a sentence.
“Miss Qiqi is more capable than we thought, so you don’t need to worry too much. She can definitely protect herself.”
Huo Yusen grunted in response, said nothing, and simply turned to look out the window.
Qiqi is really amazing!
But the more powerful he became, the more uneasy he felt.
It feels like the gap between him and Qiqi is widening, to a point where he can never catch up.
He wanted to protect the little girl, but it seemed that every time she got into trouble, he didn't need to lift a finger; she had already saved herself and turned the tables beautifully.
This made him extremely frustrated!
He hoped to be the one who stood shoulder to shoulder with Qiqi, the one who could protect her.
Instead of being someone who could only watch her back as she became a shining sun, while he didn't even have the right to touch her!
He won't allow it!
"Contact Old Zheng and tell him that my acupuncture treatment cannot be stopped, otherwise... all my previous efforts will be in vain, and there will be no chance of recovery!" Huo Yusen looked out the window, his tone slightly cold.
Huo Fei's fingers trembled slightly as he gripped the steering wheel. He was forcing Old Master Zheng to rescue Miss Qi Qi today.
He couldn't help but glance again in the rearview mirror at the boy staring blankly out the window. Was the young master a little... too infatuated with Miss Qiqi?
But thinking about that cute and cuddly girl who can easily act cute and charming like a glutinous rice ball, melting hearts with her cuteness, and who can take down an elephant with a single punch at crucial moments, and whose talisman skills are superb and whose combat power is at its maximum, I feel incredibly safe.
Who wouldn't be captivated by a girl like that?!
The Ji family went completely mad the moment she disappeared!

"Welcome to my secret base, my dear little baby!"
The elevator stopped, the doors opened, and a strong sense of technology washed over us.
Charles turned around, stretched out his arms to Qiqi who was curiously peeking out, and wore an arrogant and boastful expression on his face.
Qiqi: ……
Yue!
Who is your dear little baby?
nausea!
"It's quite a secret!" Qiqi commented.
Who would have thought that someone would build a base underground?
Moreover, the way in and out is hidden inside a complete mountain wall.
It must be said that the technological power of this era is truly amazing.
Seeing that she wasn't very shocked, Charles felt a little uncomfortable, unsure whether she was too young to understand or genuinely didn't think it was anything special. In any case, he hadn't managed to show off.
"Would you like me to introduce it to you?" Charles persisted, trying to explain his empire to the young girl who had piqued his interest once again.
But Qiqi wasn't actually interested in his labs at all; she was more interested in the dense yin energy that filled them.
Especially the innermost part of the entire base.
What's inside?
In places unseen by Charles, the entire base was filled with a thick, inky aura of yin energy.
At the very back of the base, there seemed to be a vortex, drawing all the yin energy from the outside in.
However, Qiqi was not in a hurry. Qingyi and the others had not arrived yet, and she intended to use the yin energy in this base as a touchstone to hone them.
So there's still time to play a bragging game with this big bad guy.
Qiqi smiled, her big eyes full of feigned interest. "Okay, Uncle, could you please show me around?"
Charles felt a sense of fulfillment instantly, and his smile became even more genuine.
"Come with me!" He reached out his hand to Qiqi.
Qiqi didn't want him to hold her hand at all, afraid of hurting her hands, so she walked in by herself with her short legs.
Soon, it stopped in front of the first room.
The entire base is very large and has been divided into countless small rooms.
Some of these rooms are laboratories, and through a large transparent glass window you can see that they are filled with various experimental equipment.
There were also rooms filled with various high-tech experimental devices, which were attached to the people living inside, making them look like lab rats at the mercy of others.
For some reason, Qiqi thought of the first time she met her second brother, when he was holding a sliced white mouse.
These people will ultimately suffer the same fate as that white mouse!
