"Hmm?" Ji Yueyao turned around, but found that Mu Yanxuan seemed to have nothing to say, so she looked at him strangely.
Mu Yanxuan turned her head away somewhat awkwardly, her face still burning.
"Boss!" Ling Yang's voice came from the other side, so loud that it echoed around the dark tunnel.
Ji Yueyao covered her ears, frowning in discomfort. Mu Yanxuan, standing beside her, also looked rather pale.
Ling Yang knew nothing about it. He rushed forward and hugged his boss, almost bursting into tears of joy. Heaven knows how scared he was when his boss suddenly disappeared. If his boss had even hurt a hair, he would have been beaten to a pulp by his die-hard loyalists.
Mu Yanxuan stared coldly at Ling Yang, his aura practically capable of skinning him alive. Ling Yang naturally sensed it, his body stiffened, and he obediently shrank back, giving Mu Yanxuan a fawning smile, "Boss, it's so good that you're alright."
"Besides you, who else fell down?" Mu Yanxuan looked up at the direction Ling Yang came from, where there seemed to be another person behind him.
"Besides me, only one woman from the Xiyu base fell down. I jumped down voluntarily. Everyone else is still up there." Ling Yang glanced back and, seeing that the woman hadn't caught up yet, curled his lip in boredom.
"Only four people fell down?" Ji Yueyao thought for a moment. Among the women from the Xiyu base, only Kaqi was left. Kaqi also fell down?
Ling Yang glanced at Ji Yueyao, then focused his attention on Mu Yanxuan. "Well, at the time, only the ground around you, boss, was loose. I jumped down to find you while it was still loose. I ordered the others to stay put."
Mu Yanxuan nodded, and Ji Yueyao was relieved. According to him, Lin Xuan and the others should be safe. Now the only concern was Kaqi, who had fallen down with them.
But Ji Yueyao forgot that she was the captain of Lin Xuan's group, and Ling Yang's words would have no effect on them at all.
"Your partner seems to be blocked by something." Mu Yanxuan's super-strong perception immediately detected the danger ahead, and he almost instinctively and quickly went into a defensive state.
Ji Yueyao was stunned. She opened her eyes wide and looked ahead, but couldn't see anything. A sense of danger rushed to her nerves, and she couldn't help but feel anxious. "I need to go over there."
“Together.” Mu Yanxuan did not refuse Ji Yueyao, but quickly walked ahead to clear the way. Ji Yueyao didn’t care about anything at this moment, and tightly grabbed Mu Yanxuan’s clothes and followed, leaving Ling Yang, who hadn’t reacted yet, standing there in a daze.
Was he abandoned? Ling Yang's eyes blazed with anger as he glared at the bastard in front of him who valued women over friends. For the first time, he had the urge to punch him. He had been so worried about this leader of a country, practically working himself to the bone, and now this guy had just abandoned him to please his girl!
Fortunately, Ling Yang's five senses were also quite good, so he could at least see the general area around him. He gritted his teeth and complained in his heart, but he still obediently followed.
The further they went, the more spacious the area became. Ji Yueyao also managed to adapt to the environment, and gradually she could see the things around her more clearly.
"Ah—" A scream suddenly came from ahead, followed by the sound of a heavy object hitting the wall. Ji Yueyao's hand trembled, and she rushed forward almost instinctively. It was Kaqi's voice!
Mu Yanxuan seemed somewhat displeased that she had rushed out so recklessly, but she still carefully followed behind her, watching her surroundings warily.
When Ji Yueyao ran ahead, she only saw Kaqi lying on the mound of earth behind her, while in front of her stood several monsters the size of wolfhounds!
"That's... an ant?" The monster's tail bulged out, its front was slightly smaller, and there were two relatively thick antennae at the very front, which was its head. This made Ji Yueyao think of ants first. She took a step back and quickly searched her mind for information.
Ants are strange birds, an anomaly in the Chinese system. Like ants, they are social creatures with hard shells and extremely fast movement speed.
“Ant-like strange birds.” Mu Yanxuan walked out and stared at the several ant-like strange birds in front of him for a few seconds. Just as Ji Yueyao was about to do something, the strange birds in front of him suddenly began to rot at a speed visible to the naked eye. Then, Ji Yueyao heard a painful cry and the strange birds disappeared.
“......”d?
Ji Yueyao was completely bewildered.
"Was that your special ability just now?" Ji Yueyao was a little stunned.
"Hmm." Mu Yanxuan nodded, while Ling Yang chimed in cheekily, "Boss can make any object rot and disappear quickly."
"Didn't you say your superpower was an extraordinary physique?" Ji Yueyao ignored Ling Yang and looked up at the man in front of her. Perhaps it was only at this moment that she realized how powerful this man was.
"That's just a side effect of my superpower." Mu Yanxuan thought for a moment and decided to tell Ji Yueyao that he had another superpower, but Ji Yueyao suddenly walked towards Kaqi. She was most concerned about Kaqi's situation.
Kaqi had fallen into a coma, and no matter how much Ji Yueyao shook her, she showed no signs of waking up.
Mu Yanxuan was somewhat disappointed, a sense of loss lingering in her heart. She stepped forward and patted Ji Yueyao's shoulder in a comforting gesture, but her gaze towards Kaqi held a hint of resistance. After a moment's hesitation, Mu Yanxuan still expertly examined Kaqi's head and confirmed, "She seems to have been knocked unconscious, but she's alright."
"Is that so?" Mu Yanxuan's words always made people believe him. Ji Yueyao nodded, her eyes somewhat complicated.
With difficulty, Ji Yueyao seemed to intend to carry Kaqi on her back, but before she could lift Kaqi up, she felt a sudden lightness on her back. When she turned around, she found that Kaqi had already been thrown onto Ling Yang.
