"Just follow me." Ji Yueyao rubbed her temples, the pain making her completely lose her patience. She turned and walked in one direction.
Seeing Ji Yueyao's impatient attitude, Xuehu's dissatisfaction grew exponentially, and she immediately said, "You make it sound so easy. In such a dangerous situation, why should we follow you?"
Termite frowned, equally dissatisfied with Snow Fox's attitude towards Ji Yueyao. Just as he was about to say something, Ji Yueyao, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and said, "I said you should follow me!"
As her voice fell, the exotic plants around Snow Fox and the others were instantly twisted and shattered as if by an invisible hand. Then, all the exotic plants surrounding them disappeared, and the bright sunlight shone in, bringing a faint warmth while also causing the group to squint because of the sudden glare.
Snow Fox was almost completely stunned. He looked up at the sky, his face blank. To be honest, this was the first time he had ever seen the sky and the sun in the Forbidden Forest.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yueyao gritted her teeth, unwilling to say anything more, and turned to continue walking forward. Her headache had suddenly flared up violently; her distorted space technique had almost hit the snow fox's head, but... wasn't that a bit too powerful?
She felt much more comfortable now, as if something had been released from her head.
"Hurry, they're coming." Snow Fox was the first to speak, still too shocked by what had just happened, and the look in her eyes as she looked at Ji Yueyao's back had changed.
The black cat rubbed its hair in shock and gently patted the termite's shoulder. "That's incredible! Termite, how did you get injured back then? I find it strange that you could get injured like that."
"The captain's second superpower erupted, making her body extremely weak. Although I don't know the reason, the captain is really powerful if it weren't for this accident." White Ant gently curled the corners of his mouth. He had seen Ji Yueyao deal with Wu Tian back then. The captain's strength was no weaker than anyone else's, which was why he was willing to be subordinate to her and serve her, wasn't that right?
The black cat's eyes widened in surprise. "She unleashed a second superpower? What is it...? Good heavens, is she even a woman?"
"I don't know what it is either." Termite shook his head. If he knew, perhaps the captain wouldn't have had to work so hard.
The black cat's curiosity was not satisfied. He hesitated for a moment, seemingly intending to pounce on Ji Yueyao and ask her directly. Unfortunately, Ji Yueyao's mind was in a mess and she had no time to pay attention to him.
"To the left front, underground."
The crisp sound rang out again, and Ji Yueyao gritted her teeth and continued walking forward following the sound.
"Do you want to get away from those guys? Just come with me." This was the first voice that popped into Ji Yueyao's mind. For some reason, she just felt that this voice wouldn't harm her.
"Did you hear anyone talking?" Ji Yueyao asked, turning around.
The termites were taken aback, then shook their heads in unison, "No."
Sure enough, only she could hear the voice; this must be the effect of her second supernatural ability. Although she didn't know what was speaking, she felt that anyone in the Forbidden Forest who possessed intelligence and could communicate with her was definitely not an ordinary person.
"The feeling of being an outsider... is gone." Snow Fox walked at the back, glanced back, and said softly.
“We’re safe now…” Lynx and Termite both breathed a sigh of relief, but Ji Yueyao remained standing there, still looking completely bewildered.
"underground."
Ji Yueyao listened to the crisp sound, staring blankly at the mud beneath her feet. Huh... what's that? Does this mean she has to burrow down?
She's not a gopher, how is she supposed to get down there?
Besides, according to Snow Fox, they are already safe, so there's no need for them to burrow underground again, right?
"Why do we need to go underground? Aren't we safe now?" Ji Yueyao asked.
Ji Yueyao didn't lower her voice, so the White Ants and the others naturally heard what she said. They were all a little confused, and the White Ants asked directly, "Captain, what did you say?"
Ji Yueyao did not answer him. To be precise, Ji Yueyao did not even hear the sound of the termites, because she was listening to the crisp sound at that moment.
"If I tell you, you have to take me away from this godforsaken place," the clear voice said after a moment's hesitation.
Ji Yueyao thought for a moment, then nodded decisively and said, "Okay."
"The person you're looking for is underground."
"..." To be honest, in Ji Yueyao's mind, being underground was probably like Fire Fox being buried and dying, so when she heard this, her brain short-circuited. The person she was looking for was underground?
Mu Yanxuan... is underground?!
"Black Cat, use your superpower to turn over the soil beneath my feet. I need to go underground." Ji Yueyao gritted her teeth and turned back to look decisively at Black Cat.
The black cat, whose name had been called by Ji Yueyao, hadn't even reacted yet, "Go underground... what for?"
"Hurry up!" Ji Yueyao was still irritable, his cold voice making the black cat shiver. All he did was have some curiosity, what did he do to offend him?
However, he has now acknowledged Ji Yueyao's abilities, and Ji Yueyao can now command him without much trouble.
"Yes." The black cat raised its hand, and immediately a patch of soil under Ji Yueyao's feet rolled over. Then, the soil under the black cat and the others also began to soften and roll.
In the blink of an eye, Ji Yueyao was sucked underground, with Black Cat and the others following closely behind.
Ji Yueyao had already fallen underground, while Lin Xuan was sitting upright among a group of "jackals and tigers" at the Nanxiao base.
"Lin Xuan, you're really something, a newcomer." Qian Wenyu looked at Lin Xuan and sneered sarcastically, "As the newly appointed twentieth seat, you don't even know to take the initiative to visit us. Do we have to prepare a welcome meeting for you?"
"Isn't this how it's always been?" Lin Xuan thought to himself. He had reviewed every major and minor event at the Nanxiao Base. The twenty newly appointed seats were required to hold a welcoming meeting—wasn't that a rule of the Nanxiao Base…?
Lin Xuan didn't speak, he just sat there. In Ji Yueyao's words, no matter how much trouble the other party caused him, he would just pretend he didn't hear it.
Because... the First Seat Chongyuan will naturally protect him.
Sure enough, Chongyuan spoke up the next moment, "Wenyu, are you confused? Isn't holding this kind of welcoming meeting a unique rule among the twenty seats of our Nanxiao base? I remember when you joined our twenty seats, I personally roasted a lamb for you."
"Brother Chong, how could I forget? I was just giving the newcomer a hard time." Qian Wenyu's lips stiffened, but he forced a friendly smile.
Lin Xuan was speechless. This really did give off the impression of "we're all brothers." (To be continued.)
