"Knock knock—" There was a knock on the door at this moment. Ji Yueyao rubbed her temples and narrowed her eyes impatiently. What was it now?
"Enter."
A messenger guard strode in, respectfully stepped back half a step, bowed, and said, "Sir, the black people seem to have something to discuss with you."
Ji Yueyao rubbed his forehead and said rather unkindly, "What is it? You can ask Lin Xuan, the third seat, to handle this kind of thing."
Lin Xuan, who was handling official business, paused, glanced at Ji Yueyao, and then continued to work on the documents.
Ji Yueyao felt a deep sense of guilt after being looked at by Lin Xuan.
"Ahem, never mind. The black people are only here to discuss oil transactions. Let's leave these to the resource management department." Ji Yueyao sat up straight, coughed lightly, and said calmly.
"Sir, the black people say they want to trade with you in person, no one else will do." The messenger guard straightened his legs with some hesitation, took a deep breath as he looked at Ji Yueyao, whose expression was calm.
"Oh ho." Ji Yueyao was speechless. He glanced at the nervous communication guards and shook his head. "Bring them over."
Has she become scary? Why are the guards so afraid of her?
Ji Yueyao was unaware that the scene of her using her superpower when she subdued Wu Weiqin had left a shadow on many people, and she was also unaware that rumors were circulating in the Nanxiao base that Ji Yueyao possessed the powerful superpower to make anyone disappear if she wanted them to.
Watching the guard quickly retreat with his eyes lowered, Ji Yueyao impatiently smoothed her hair as she watched his retreating figure. What's going on with the Nanxiao base? During the riots, all those messy forces, including the Black Race, were behaving themselves. Now that things have calmed down, they're all jumping around everywhere.
As Ji Yueyao was complaining with her head down, the door was knocked on rhythmically once again.
"Come in." Who's here again? Anyone can't stand being busy all day long.
The door was suddenly pushed open, followed by the clanging sound of leather shoes hitting the floor, which reached Ji Yueyao's ears.
Ji Yueyao looked up, about to say something, but then froze as if struck by lightning.
“Ji Yueyao…” Xia Yaoxuan looked at the face he had been longing for day and night, and almost instantly his eyes welled up with tears. “You’ve come… you’re really late.”
Ji Yueyao didn't hear what Xia Yaoxuan said. It wasn't that his voice was soft; she was simply completely bewildered. "Xia...Xia Yaoxuan?!"
Are you kidding me...? The person in front of me looks to be in his early twenties. Although he looks exactly like Xia Yaoxuan, they shouldn't be the same person, right?
Xia Yaoxuan had long since developed a keen eye in this world, and he almost immediately saw the suspicion in Ji Yueyao's eyes. He felt a twitch on his forehead, but his sadness vanished completely; his expression at that moment could only be described as fierce and menacing.
He lunged forward and grabbed Ji Yueyao's cheek, pulling and tugging at her so fast that even Bai Yi and the others couldn't stop him. "Yueyue, you really are... I, Xia Yaoxuan, am standing right in front of you, and you're still doubting me for what!"
"You...you...you..." Ji Yueyao felt as if she had been struck by lightning. That voice, that familiar address...
"Are you really Xia Yaoxuan?!"
"Otherwise what?" Xia Yaoxuan curled his lips into a wicked smile, then pulled Ji Yueyao into his arms and let out a satisfied sigh, "Great, it really is you."
Ji Yueyao, do you know how long I've been looking for you? Do you know the chaotic fear I felt before opening the door? Do you know how terrified I was that the person sitting inside was just someone with the same name as you...
Xia Yaoxuan's mind raced with countless thoughts, but in the end he said nothing. He simply held Ji Yueyao in his arms, seemingly with no intention of letting go.
Zhenyang looked ashen-faced. What the hell? Their homosexual... ugh, this wise and mighty leader has found his destined other half?
He looked at Xia Yaoxuan, then at Ji Yueyao, completely unable to imagine what connection these two people could possibly have.
"Captain!" Lin Xuan couldn't bear to see Ji Yueyao being held like that. He practically leaped up, and then a huge clump of vegetation rose from where he had just been, rushing straight towards Xia Yaoxuan.
"Wait a minute!" Ji Yueyao shouted in a panic, looking at the vegetation that was close at hand and preparing to use her superpower. But unexpectedly, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of her in the next second, and then the vegetation turned into a charred state. Lin Xuan tried to control the vegetation from the side, but unexpectedly, the plant that was already pitch black turned into ashes after he controlled it.
Lin Xuan took a step back, staring at Xia Yaoxuan with even greater vigilance, sensing danger through his supernatural abilities.
Xia Yaoxuan glared at Lin Xuan, raised his hand, and a beam of white light shot straight at Lin Xuan. Before anyone could react, it blasted a dark hole in front of Lin Xuan's feet, and numerous cracks appeared around the floor, making the entire floor seem about to collapse. The screams of the people downstairs seemed to pierce the sky.
Almost simultaneously, Lin Xuan could only stand there stiffly, looking down at the chaotic crowd through the hole in front of him, feeling as if his heart had stopped for a moment.
The man in front of me... is too dangerous.
"Not everyone will tolerate an attack." Xia Yaoxuan chuckled dangerously, his eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Lin Xuan.
Watching Xia Yaoxuan skillfully use his superpowers, Ji Yueyao suddenly realized something and said, "You're a superpowered person... Wait, Xia Yaoxuan, could you be Xia Yaoxuan, the leader of the Black Race?!"
"Otherwise what?" Xia Yaoxuan turned around, raised his head somewhat childishly, and said with great pride, "I'm a lightning-type ability user, isn't that cool?"
"Handsome... Pshaw, that's not the point!" Ji Yueyao looked at Xia Yaoxuan, who was obviously much older, and felt like a million grass mud horses were galloping through her mind. "How come you're in this world, and the leader of the black race... Also, why do you look so much older!"
"Cough cough cough cough..." Zhenyang choked on his saliva. He looked at Ji Yueyao with a resentful expression. Their boss looked like the youngest? He was clearly wise, brave, and handsome... The childish actions he saw from his boss earlier were definitely an illusion. And... Ji Yueyao definitely has a problem with his eyesight.
While silently cursing in his heart, Zhenyang secretly glanced at Xia Yaoxuan and, sure enough, saw his face contort a few times. He immediately looked away, feeling as if the end of the world was coming.
“Yueyue…” Xia Yaoxuan suddenly chuckled, then looked at Ji Yueyao’s short hair and said happily, “You still have short hair…”
Ji Yueyao was stunned for a moment, then immediately covered her head and quickly backed away, shouting, "Don't come any closer!"
However, she was too slow. In the instant she was stunned, Xia Yaoxuan had already reached for her hair and then... began to ruffle and rub it.
In just a few seconds, her hair was a complete mess. (To be continued.)
