"You want to send someone to the safe base?" Lu Yin was stunned when she heard Master Ning’s request. After what happened last time, Lu Yin was too scared to even approach the safe base. The last attack was still in her mind, and she did not dare to approach the safe base; only the heavens knew what kind of defence mechanism Bai Meiyue had arranged. It could kill without leaving anything behind. Not even a single drop of blood was left behind. How could she not be terrified?

Master Ning, however, was not that scared. After all, he was not the one who was going to take the risks; the one who was going to take risks should be terrified. Master Ning was furious when he thought about how he had lost both his woman and his country. "We need to keep sending people to spy on Bai Meiyue. You and I both know that this safe base is the safest place for us to stay. As long as we can find a place to infiltrate, I believe it won’t take long for us to deal with Bai Meiyue. Don’t you think this place is wonderful?"

Lu Yin had to admit that this safe base was indeed a wonderful place; she had never expected a safe base with so many defence mechanisms to even exist. If they could stay in this safe base, then there was nothing that she needed to worry about.

However, taking over this safe base was not as simple as Master Ning was making it sound like.

"Forget it." Lu Yin thought about it a little and shook her head. "The safe base is not simple, and Bai Meiyue is not easy to deal with either. We thought that we had everything under control last time; what happened? Even if Bai Meiyue did not appear, she made sure that the safe base would be able to remain intact till the end. I cannot let such a thing happen again."

They had already lost so many ability users. How could they allow any more of the ability users to be killed? Their team already lost a lot of ability users. If Lu Yin allowed even more of the ability users to die, then there was a good chance that Dacheng would kick her out of the team. Lu Yin knew that even if she was the current leader of the three teams, it was all because Dacheng was willing to let her have that position, but if she were to go against him again and again, that man would surely lose his temper.

"Are you sure that you want to give up?" Master Ning clenched his fingers when he heard Lu Yin say that she was not going to send any more spies to the safe base. This won’t do. He was still waiting for this woman to open a path for him. If she gave up so easily, what was she going to do?

He sucked in a breath and added in a low voice, "If you give up now, then there is a good chance that Bai Meiyue will look down on you for her entire life; she deliberately showed such a skill to you because she wants to prove something to you. If you fall back now, then what would happen? You will play right into her hands."

Lu Yin hesitated. She did not like the idea of Bai Meiyue looking down at her. Should she—

"That’s enough."

Dacheng walked over. He glanced at Master Ning and said to him coldly, "There is no need for you to say so many things. Miss Bai is living a good life in her safe base; do you think she will care about people like us who do not even have a place to stay? Of course not. She doesn’t even pay attention to people like us, so why would she even bother paying attention to someone like Lu Yin?"

He then turned to look at Lu Yin and sternly reminded her, "Lu Yin, I am not asking you to use your head, but at the least, you can do is not cause trouble for me. You are no match for Bai Meiyue; there is no need to fight against her either, since you cannot fight back. You better stay put for me, or else don’t blame me for losing my temper with you."

Master Ning clearly had some other intentions for him to urge Lu Yin to send more spies to the safe base, and Lu Yin was a fool who could not see something so simple. Did she think that it was because of her that Master Ning was working so hard? Of course not; the reason he was so inclined to sneak inside the safe base was that he had something that he wanted, and he wanted it very much.

Dacheng had no intention of protecting Lu Yin, but he could not allow this woman to cause trouble for Bai Meiyue. After all, when he left the safe base, he brought Lu Yin with him. If Bai Meiyue found out that Lu Yin was the one who was causing trouble for her, she would definitely look for him as well. Dacheng was worried about his own safety! He could not let this woman create trouble for him because of her stupidity.

"Dacheng, I—"

"I told you to stay put, so stay put." Dacheng roared. His temper turned even worse when he saw that Lu Yin was not listening to what he was trying to tell her. "Do you want me to send a word to Bai Meiyue and let her know that I have nothing to do with you and that the two of us have separated? Because I will do that."

He would rather cease this cooperation than let Lu Yin cause trouble for him.

Lu Yin pursed her lips when she heard Dacheng snapping at her. She did not want to let this matter slide, but what was she supposed to do? Dacheng had more followers than she did; if she allowed him to leave now, then her power would weaken significantly.

Master Ning glared at Dacheng fiercely; in his eyes, this man was the cause of the separation between him and his snakes. If he had not stopped Lu Yin, then he would have easily found his familiars.

However, before he could say anything rebellious, a new voice joined them. "I...I can help."

The three of them turned to look at Meng Anzhi, who had come looking for Dacheng and Lu Yin.

"Who are you?" Master Ning had never met Meng Anzhi before and could not help but question the woman when he saw her standing in front of them.

"She is Meng Suisui’s sister." Lu Yin stared at Meng Anzhi with a look of sheer disgust and did not say anything in response to Meng Anzhi’s suggestion. It wasn’t her fault; the woman was not only dressed in a skimpy outfit, but she also smelled of musk and physical torment. Lu Yin had never been close to a woman who served men before and was thus disgusted to her bones when she saw Meng Anzhi.

Dacheng also scrunched up his brows. "What are you doing here?" As far as he knew, he did not bring Meng Anzhi together with his convoy. So where did this woman come from?

Meng Anzhi sniffed and then knelt in front of Dacheng and Lu Yin. "Master Dacheng, please let me stay with you and your team. I will tell you everything that you want to know about Bai Meiyue. I am also willing to serve as many men as you want; just let me have a place in your team." Meng Anzhi was abandoned by her last team—in fact, it would be better to say that Bai Meiyue had killed her previous team leader, and she had no one next to her.

What was more, her sister was also not willing to take care of her. How could Meng Anzhi survive in this situation without someone protecting her? When she found out about Dacheng and his convoy staying close to the safe base, she did not think twice and immediately came to look for them. She thought that as long as she could tell them about Bai Meiyue, they would definitely let her stay with them. After all, Lu Yin hated Bai Meiyue the most!

"Meng Anzhi, do you think that you can make me accept you if you let me know all about Bai Meiyue?" Dacheng was filled with disgust when he heard Meng Anzhi say that she was willing to let him know all about Bai Meiyue.

"I—I will do anything; please don’t send me away." Meng Anzhi was afraid; she was truly afraid. She did not want to stay alone in the current world. Even if it meant betraying Bai Meiyue, she was willing. Because it meant that she would be able to eat her meals without any worries.
