“While it’s understandable that you say that, you should ask Wei Kang’s decision first, right?” Huang Li felt there was a chance when she saw Ji Tiehan’s reaction. She tried to make her expression look more sincere and looked directly at Ji Tiehan, saying, “I must take Wei Kang away. It is my mission and my responsibility.”
His dark eyes were as calm as a lake, reflecting Ji Tiehan's face.
Ji Tiehan glanced at Huang Li, whose gaze was resolute, and for the first time looked away. He nodded, seemingly agreeing with Huang Li's words. He glanced at the strange birds flying around outside the window, then turned back to Huang Li with a blank expression. "I can't believe you based on what you've said. What else do you have to prove your identity?"
What a wary man! Huang Li gritted her teeth inwardly, took out an ID card from her pocket and handed it over. It clearly stated Huang Li's name and the position she held in the Northern Military Region.
"Huang Li, a high-ranking bodyguard?" Ji Tiehan looked Huang Li up and down, his expression tinged with mockery. "There's actually someone named Huang Li. But a high-ranking bodyguard... you?"
"...What do you mean by 'just her'? You look down on people like that?!" Huang Li gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at Ji Tiehan.
Actually, it's not Ji Tiehan's fault. After all, the strength of the senior guards of the Northern Military Department should be equivalent to that of a squad leader in their Xiyu base's search department. They should be able to protect themselves. But this woman in front of him injured herself... How could he not be suspicious if she could make such a stupid mistake?
"Are you going to talk or not?!" Huang Li glared at Ji Tiehan, her beautiful face full of anger, even her fair cheeks were flushed, as if she was about to cry at any moment.
Is she about to cry? Ji Tiehan helplessly raised his hand, indicating surrender, "Okay, don't cry, I'll tell you."
Should I really tell her? Huang Li was overjoyed, and without even realizing it, her expectant gaze was fixed on Ji Tiehan.
Ji Tiehan coughed lightly, then said calmly, "He went out a few hours ago and hasn't returned yet."
"Where did he go?" Huang Li asked quickly, startled.
"I don't know," Ji Tiehan answered honestly.
"..."
Watching the oriole dash away like the wind, completely ignoring the strange birds swooping down around it, Ji Tiehan touched his face where he had been slapped, looked at his wrist where he had been bitten, sighed, and sat down.
Women... are just a hassle.
Ji Yueyao held her head in her hands as she watched Mu Yanxuan stand motionless in front of her, effortlessly dealing with the bird-like creature that pounced on her.
He directly controlled the area with his domain, then used his corrosive ability to quickly eliminate all the bird-like creatures that had entered the domain.
Although he still finds it somewhat difficult to use pure-type abilities, he is now more than capable of using only a small branch of them—his original vacuum and corrosion abilities.
Previously, when he used both powers together, he could only last for a minute at most, but now he has been standing for more than five minutes without feeling any loss of strength.
Ji Yueyao looked at Mu Yanxuan's back and wanted to help him, but she couldn't even stand up... Once she encountered a large number of aliens, she would be useless without the help of the sky... Ji Yueyao suppressed the pain in her head and just wanted to try to stand up... But the more she suppressed it, the more the fluctuations accumulated, and the more severe her headache became. Not to mention standing up, she was so dizzy that she couldn't even maintain her consciousness.
She gritted her teeth and knelt there, trying her best to look natural... because she didn't want Mu Yanxuan to spend any more energy on her.
Looking at the area enclosed by Mu Yanxuan, Yu Tianfang suddenly felt very bored. How could he forget that even without pure-type abilities, Mu Yanxuan was still an extremely powerful ability user... He had originally hoped to see how long Mu Yanxuan could last using pure-type abilities, but now it seemed hopeless.
Let's go. Now that we've found the second one, it's time for him to set off to find the third. He's been at the Xiyu base long enough... The most interesting time was probably the one when he went on a mission with Ji Yueyao.
Strange birds kept flying past him. He stood up, dusted himself off, and decided to leave the birds to Mu Yanxuan and the others to play with. He was too lazy to bring them back.
Just as he was about to jump off the roof, he suddenly stopped all movement as if sensing something, and then fixed his gaze on Ji Yueyao.
The sun was completely obscured, and as night fell, Ji Yueyao's mind cleared instantly. Then, a voice from the sky called out urgently, "Ji Yueyao, are you alright?"
"It's nothing... Thanks, Sky." Ji Yueyao rubbed her bloodshot eyes, which were red from the pain, and avoided Mu Yanxuan's gaze.
"You really are..." Sky seemed very angry, but it knew this was not the time for it to lose its temper. It paused for a moment, then said anxiously, "Ji Yueyao, I sensed a very powerful aura... All the bird-like creatures in the Xiyu Base may have been summoned by him from the desolate lands on the edge of the Xiyu Base!"
"They were summoned?!" Ji Yueyao stepped out of the death barrier Mu Yanxuan had erected for her, her face grave. "Who, who has such power?"
Mu Yanxuan breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at Ji Yueyao, whose complexion had recovered. However, he suddenly felt a little impatient as he watched the strange birds still surging in.
"I don't know... When he used his superpower, even my insignificant superpower resonated with it. It's very possible that he's an anomaly even more powerful than me, and he must possess time-based superpowers!"
Ji Yueyao paused for a moment, then immediately went to Mu Yanxuan's side and told him everything that Tiankong had said.
After listening to everything she said, Mu Yanxuan pursed her lips and remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.
Seeing that Mu Yanxuan had begun to think, Ji Yueyao stopped disturbing him and instead picked up a dagger and cut off the head of a bird-shaped creature that had entered the vacuum.
"Ji Yueyao, could that guy be around us?" Mu Yanxuan suddenly spoke up calmly. The attack was aimed at him from the start, so he couldn't help but suspect that the person manipulating all of this might be right next to them.
But who exactly is that guy who can control so many aliens?
“Very likely.” The sky, having naturally heard Mu Yanxuan’s words, continued speaking to Ji Yueyao, “The purest power I can sense is all around you, and the person responsible for all of this is very likely right around you…”
"Ugh...so annoying." Just as Ji Yueyao was listening intently to Sky Talk, a slightly familiar voice suddenly entered her mind.
Ji Yueyao's expression froze, and even the movements of her hands stopped. (To be continued.)
