Lin Xi's face suddenly returned to normal.
He Chao stood frozen, staring at the astonishing scene, motionless for a long while before finally regaining his senses. "Xiao Xi?"
"Sigh, you're too slow to react." Lin Xi rested her chin on one hand, looking at him with a half-smile.
He Chao suddenly jumped up from the ground, extremely excited, "How could it be you?"
"Tell me, who else could be this awesome besides me?" Lin Xi said with a regretful look. "I thought that with our relationship, you would recognize me just by seeing that car."
"Isn't this your fault? How did you change your face? How did you do that?"
Lin Xi quickly gestured for him to be quiet, "Keep your voice down, these two are all hoping to kill me, don't get me in trouble!"
He Chao nodded quickly, "Okay, okay, with me here, no one can touch you."
"Ha! Men." Lin Xi rolled her eyes. "I wonder who was just so enthusiastically cursing me?"
He Chao's smile froze. "Well, I didn't know it was you. A stranger asking me to do this and that would feel a little strange to anyone."
Lin Xi nodded. "I barely agree with that."
"How are things going with the Wind Eagle Regiment? And how are Jiang Yuan and Uncle Jiang doing?"
“They all stayed in the safe zone and are doing well now. Yun and the others are taking good care of us, so you don’t need to worry too much.”
"And you?"
"Me? I'm doing pretty well too. I was personally mentored by Yun, and I'm the fastest improving member of our batch in the Wind Eagle Group. My superpower is now at level six." At this point, the slightly smug expression on his face disappeared.
He never even dared to dream of having a level six superpower back when they were still in G City.
But after arriving in S City, he realized how ridiculous he was, like a frog in a well. There were plenty of level six or seven ability users outside, and any one of them was more powerful than him.
No wonder they were powerless to fight back when they encountered such a thing in G City.
"Alright, stop being so sentimental. Look ahead, there's still a long way to go." Lin Xi swallowed another disguise pill and transformed back into her original form right under his nose.
He Chao was shocked once again.
"There's no other way. I'm in high demand now, and everyone wants to kill me. I can only find some unconventional ways to save myself. Please understand."
He Chao nodded and didn't ask any further questions.
Indeed, if Lin Xi had appeared in the Wind Eagle Clan with her own face, the Wind Eagle Clan would probably have already mobilized all its forces to arrest her.
Not to mention there was a raging fire brigade nearby.
With so many high-level superhumans surrounding her, she probably won't be able to escape even if she wanted to.
"I didn't want to stay here either. If Captain Yu hadn't forced me to stay, I would have had things to do on Worry-Free Island. Why would I need to listen to you cursing me behind my back?" Lin Xi said sarcastically.
He Chao's smile froze on his face again. "I was wrong, I was wrong. Don't say anything more. How about I slap myself twice to apologize?"
Lin Xi turned her head away.
"Hey, Xiaoxi, didn't you want to eat seafood? Just wait here, I'll go catch some for you! Then I'll find someone who can cook and make you a proper meal so you can eat your fill!"
Team Leader Yu was somewhat surprised to see He Chao running back with a big smile on his face, carrying a bag of seafood. "What happened? Weren't you just reluctant? Now you're already out in the sea catching seafood for others?"
Team Leader Yu shook his head. This girl is quite cunning; she managed to win over He Chao so quickly. She's really something.
But this was exactly what he wanted.
Looking up again, he saw He Chao, looking guilty, crawling out of the Fire Gang's tent.
He frowned. What had this kid been up to this time?
One or two of them have abandoned their posts without permission; it seems they need to be punished severely as a warning to others.
Just then, the kid came running over with a silly grin on his face and shouted, "Hello, Captain Yu!"
He nodded, but as he turned around, he suddenly remembered something. "I heard that everyone from the Blazing Fire Gang involved in this matter has arrived?"
"Yes, Captain Yu!"
"Help me call a few influential members of the Blazing Fire Gang to come to my tent for a meeting tonight."
He Chao's eyes were practically closed from laughing. He had just told a lie and was still thinking about how to cover it up.
Sure enough, Captain Yu personally offered him a way out.
Yu Bo also found it strange; what was this kid so happy about?
Oh well, let it be.
He shook his head, turned around, and went back to his tent.
While they were having their meeting that evening, Lin Xi and the others had a private meal here.
After He Chao entered, he sat down as if they were old friends. "Hey! Which brother of yours has gone into business?"
He Chao shoved him, "Go away, there's no share for you."
"Brother, I did something big today, you have to reward me properly." He Chao put his arm around his shoulder, grinning mischievously.
"What's the big deal?" His expression successfully caught He Chao's attention.
"Do you still remember Jiang Wen?" He Chao let go of him, picked up a shrimp from the plate, and started peeling it himself.
He Chao's expression changed. "The one from Liehuo? He's here too?"
"That's right! How dare that kid have the nerve to cooperate with our Wind Eagle Group? If it weren't for the fact that we're not strong enough, I'd beat him up every time I see him!" He Chao said indignantly.
He Chao glanced at Lin Xi, then lowered his head, his expression not looking too good.
It's this kid who's caused Xiao Xi to have to hide her true self and not be able to stand in front of them with her real face.
Unfortunately, I heard that Jiang Wen is a level seven wood-type ability user, and he can't beat him.
Hehehe.
He Chao's silly laughter sounded particularly grating to his ears at that moment. "What are you laughing at like that for?"
"I kicked him into the sea today!"
Lin Xi: ……!
He Chao: ...!
"ah?"
"That kid is so stupid, he thought someone else kicked him. He was even calling me brother today, it's hilarious."
He Chao silently gave a thumbs up, "Awesome, bro."
Lin Xi's silence at this moment was deafening.
Is his little fan helping him get revenge?
There's no need to go to such lengths.
If the truth comes out, the Wind Eagle Gang and the Blazing Fire Gang will probably have a falling out.
but.
Since Jiang Wen is here, and I happen to be here too.
She would like to meet him again.
This time, unlike in the capital, he won't be able to get away so easily.
Lin Xi put the shrimp meat into her mouth.
He Chao, who was standing next to He Chao, actually started flattering him.
Although this behavior is quite in line with his personality, it still seems a bit strange no matter how you look at it.
The two were still loudly plotting, "Brother Chao, next time something like this happens, let me have that kick!"
He Chao poured water for He Chao attentively.
Unfortunately, they were traveling light this time and couldn't afford to drink alcohol, so they had to substitute water for wine.
Lin Xi fell silent again upon seeing this scene.
