Ye Xiao's words seemed to be a satire on the sentence "Only you can come so quietly."
Zhou Li's face changed, and he felt humiliated. He considered himself a first-rate psychic, but in front of this person, he seemed to be nothing and was not worth taking seriously at all.
However, the strength was there, and any self-esteem of a weakling was unnecessary in front of the former. He smiled bitterly and said, "Kill me if you want."
Ye Xiao didn't take action immediately: "You threaten her with your earth-related abilities, what do you want her to do?"
Zhou Li looked at him and smiled. "I asked her to leave you and work for me. Ye Xiao, you were able to establish yourself here so quickly. Besides your own ability, it's also closely related to her, right? With a wood-type superpower like this, who would dare to be rude? You're so lucky. I knew her first."
This matter almost became a knot in his heart. He was the first one to see Lin Tantan when the apocalypse broke out. He could tell at that time that she was not an ordinary woman, but he didn't care much. However, he remembered Lin Tantan's reminder for him to eat more and rest more. After he found that his physical discomfort soon subsided after doing so, and he awakened his supernatural powers, he knew that she was really not an ordinary person, and he wanted to find her.
Unfortunately, when we met again, she had already joined someone else's team.
The more he discovered her abilities, the more Zhou Li couldn't help but think that he was the one who knew her first, and then he felt regretful and remorseful, as if he had missed a treasure. It was really hard for him to let it go, so he always kept his eyes on her and tried his best to pull her back.
Ye Xiao's expression remained icy. "You only know how to focus on one person and blame your own failure on missing out on someone else. Even if she was your partner, even if she wasn't forced away by you, you wouldn't be able to protect her."
"If I were you, I wouldn't have gotten involved with Li Qun in the first place. If someone gets involved in this mess, it wouldn't be a problem for them to form their own faction. Zhou Li, you have no courage at all. You don't even have the qualifications to care about her."
Zhou Li's face looked extremely ugly. Being told to his face that he had no courage was a great humiliation for an ambitious man like him, even more humiliating than saying that he was too weak.
He stared at Ye Xiao with a sharp gaze. "You have courage, but you're just a pawn following orders. In the eyes of those above you, you're just a useful knife. Now that the secret of Lin Tantan being a triple-ability person has spread, do you think those powerful people up there will let her waste her time, energy, and precious abilities on a bunch of civilians in such a small place?"
"Even if you can stop those with ill intentions, there are still some truly broad-minded and concerned individuals who care about the country and the people. Your Miss Lin is so kind. If you persuade her with emotion and reason, and then promise her great benefits, can you keep her? After all, you are just a small fry. You can't give her the best of everything, let alone give her a stage to truly demonstrate her value."
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes, and the aura around him became increasingly stagnant.
Zhou Li seemed to want to say it all at once.
"You probably like her, right? But do you think there won't be many people who like her? She's like a naive person now, with little experience, so she can be coaxed by you. But when she meets more people in the future, can you guarantee that you will be the best one? Women are different from men. If they fall in love with someone, they will be completely unreasonable. By then, will she still have eyes for you, her former little companion?"
Zhou Li smiled smugly, he knew he would not survive today. He was jealous of Ye Xiao. He couldn't tell whether he was jealous of him because of Lin Tan Tan, or because of his strong superpowers, or because he was better developed than himself. Jealousy between males was unreasonable and even more extreme than that between females. In short, he was jealous of him, and it would be good to see his expression change before he died.
Ye Xiao looked at him without saying a word. Suddenly, the knife made of air that was placed on Zhou Li's neck moved away and slashed towards his shoulder.
"Ah!" Zhou Li screamed, but then he closed his mouth and only groaned. Even at the last moment, he had his own pride and didn't want to appear too embarrassed.
Only a trace of skin remained on his arm connecting to his shoulder. Blood was splattered all over the bed, and the smell of blood instantly filled the air.
Ye Xiao said in a cold voice: "After dawn, get out of the base."
Zhou Li covered his shoulder and looked up suddenly: "You won't kill me?"
Ye Xiao turned to leave, and Zhou Li was angered by his contemptuous attitude: "I am a thunder-type mutant. If you don't kill me, I will definitely come back!"
Ye Xiao turned around and said coldly: "I didn't kill you because what you did wasn't worthy of death. I cut off your arm because you hurt her hand. If you want to take revenge on me, it's up to you."
After saying that, he turned around and took two steps, then suddenly asked, "Does Zhou Yan have any special abilities?"
Zhou Li was still digesting his words, and subconsciously said, "No, he doesn't have any special abilities."
Ye Xiao said no more, walked out and went to another house.
After breaking the door and entering, it was dark inside, with things scattered all over the floor. A man sitting on the sofa was covering his head, looking depressed and angry. There was also a person lying beside the sofa, obviously dead.
The door suddenly opened, and the man on the sofa stood up and took out a gun: "Who!"
This person is Zhou Yan.
Even in the dim light, Ye Xiao could see him clearly. Apart from his decent face, he looked like an ordinary man.
Zhou Yan's eyes widened: "Ye Xiao?!" His attitude immediately changed. He quickly turned on the light and said with an apologetic smile: "Captain Ye, why are you here? Are you looking for my brother? He's in his room, not here."
Ye Xiao just looked at him. Zhou Yan couldn't figure out why he came and was worried that he was coming for him. He quickly glanced at the corpse beside the sofa.
That was Xiao Yu. He returned empty-handed and had a terrible headache because of using his supernatural powers. This tactless guy kept asking him how much benefit he could get and whether he could stay with him in the future. He got angry and knocked the guy onto the coffee table. This guy was too useless and died just like that.
Ye Xiao also looked at the corpse. Zhou Yan's heart skipped a beat and he said hurriedly, "He was just an ignorant little brother. I gave him a few words of advice, but he got pretentious and banged his head against the table... Well, I didn't expect my brother to go to Miss Lin. I'm really sorry for causing you trouble. I apologize to you and Miss Lin on his behalf."
Ye Xiao had already inquired about who he was, and now that he was in direct contact, he had a deeper understanding. He was slippery, cunning, selfish, and good at scheming. He never spoke a word of truth, and now it seemed that he was also very vicious.
Although he can't accomplish anything great, he can be a real villain. If he is lucky, he may have some good fortune.
Ye Xiao originally had no control over such people, but his hands were too long.
Ye Xiao didn't know what secrets Lin Tantan had, and he wouldn't take the initiative to find out because he respected her and didn't want to make her unhappy. He wouldn't allow others to find out her secrets either.
Ye Xiao said: "Zhou Yan, what is your special ability?"
Zhou Yan was shocked: "Superpowers? I don't have any superpowers?"
"Then go to hell." A wind blade slashed towards Zhou Yan's eyebrows.
Zhou Yan's eyes widened. It happened too fast. He felt as if he was enveloped by death. He had no time to react and couldn't even raise the gun in his hand. So the next moment he released a fireball.
This fireball is small but very condensed. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the domineering energy it contains. Once hit by the wind blade, it will explode, blowing the house beyond recognition. Zhou Yan has already prepared to escape in the chaos.
However, the incredibly fast wind blade suddenly unfolded just before it was about to hit the fireball, turning into a wind net that wrapped up the fireball.
It was like an extremely tight glass cover, which not only failed to wrap up the whole thing but also sucked out all the air inside. As a result, the powerful fireball went out silently like a dud cannonball, and with a puff, it exhausted its last ray of light.
Zhou Yan's eyes widened, he couldn't believe what he saw.
His strongest attack, a life-saving trick that he had figured out after a long time and only used in critical moments, was broken just like that, as easy as crushing a bug.
He looked at Ye Xiao with bloodshot eyes. At this moment, he felt the humiliation that his brother had felt not long ago. He no longer pretended to be humble and flattering, but kept throwing fireballs.
However, no matter how many he threw out, Ye Xiao reached out and grabbed them through the air, and they were wrapped up and extinguished by the wind nets, as if he was just a childish kid throwing balloons for fun.
Zhou Yan panted heavily, realizing that he had no chance of defeating the man before him. He hurriedly said, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you, my ability is fire-based. You saw it, my ability..." He wanted to say it was very strong, but thinking of his previous performance, he could only grit his teeth and say, "It's not weak. I can work for you and be at your command. You don't have a strong fire-based person in your team yet, right? I can fill that gap."
The other party wanted to kill him, but he actually wanted to fill one of the most important positions under the other party. This was not begging for mercy, it was simply recommending himself.
Zhou Yan felt deep down that he was very important and that he would achieve great things, so even at the critical moment of life and death, he still thought that he would be very useful and that the other party would definitely change his mind because of his abilities.
He was almost certain of this, but the next moment a wind blade pierced through his shoulder, and he flipped over the sofa and fell behind it. He was in so much pain that he couldn't even get up, and was in a very miserable state.
Ye Xiao walked over and pulled him up from behind the sofa: "Is your only ability with fire powerful? You have more than that, right? You should have another ability, right?"
Zhou Yan's pupils suddenly contracted.
Ye Xiao knew that he had guessed right.
These two brothers are also rare. The elder brother has powerful thunder abilities, and the first thing he does when he enters the base is to seek refuge with others. The younger brother has dual abilities but he always hides his abilities and pretends to be an ordinary person.
It was at this moment that Zhou Yan suddenly looked directly into Ye Xiao's eyes: "Who are you?"
Ye Xiao's eyes were confused for a moment, and his consciousness was shattered by a strange force. He had an urge to blurt out his own name, the name he had almost completely forgotten. But the moment he opened his mouth, he held it back. That was not his name. His name was Ye Xiao, and it could only be Ye Xiao!
Ye Xiao hugged his head, as if there was an iron rod stirring inside, making him want to cut open his head. He barely found a trace of rationality and struggled out of the confusion and pain.
It only took two seconds.
Zhou Yan was stunned when he saw his reaction. He just asked a question casually, of course not for the purpose of getting an answer. Whenever he asked anyone a question, the other party would be distracted and give the most truthful answer. In the process, they would not resist even if he killed them. If this ability was not too weak now, he would be more satisfied with it.
You can ask what you want to know and also launch a sneak attack.
He asked Ye Xiao this question because he wanted to launch a sneak attack, but he didn't expect his reaction to be so unexpected. But who cares? He seized the opportunity, brewed a huge fireball and hit Ye Xiao's chest, then turned around and ran away.
Ye Xiao was blown away and hit the wall. He raised his hand and a wind blade came out. The wind blade cut through the head of Zhou Yan who was jumping out of the window. Zhou Yan screamed, flipped out of the window, and never got up again.
“Huh—huh—”
Ye Xiao supported himself on the ground with one hand and gasped for breath. He looked at the sunken area on his chest that was burned and still smoking, and smiled bitterly.
I didn't expect the boat to capsize in the ditch.
After a long while, he stood up with the help of the wall and walked to the window. Zhou Yan was lying on the ground with his limbs twisted. Half of his head had been cut off and he was no longer breathing.
Because of Zhou Yan's scream, there was some movement nearby, and Ye Xiao quickly left.
