Chapter 926: Hunting

The woman was worried that Bai Meiyue would really chase her out of the safe base, so she ran away with her son in her arms. She was afraid that if she was another second late, Bai Meiyue would chase her and throw her out of the safe base with her family. If she ended up being kicked out of the safe base, then she would become the sinner of the entire family, and surely they would take their anger out on her.

Of course, Bai Meiyue was not going to chase after the woman. She had already warned her and as long as the woman was willing to stay in the safe base without causing any trouble, she was not going to find her but if that woman ended up creating another chaos, then she could not blame her. She would definitely find that woman and kick her out.

"And what are you doing looking at me like a thief?" Bai Meiyue asked. She turned around and looked at the sneaky man, who was looking at her furitively.

Lei Qian smiled at her flatteringly. "It’s nothing. I was just coming to ask you whether you want to leave right now or if you want to wait a little bit."

"Why would I wait?" Bai Meiyue asked back with an arched brow. "Since we are all packed up, let’s leave as soon as possible." She was worried that if she lingered any longer, her mother would come looking for her with another thick set of clothing. Ever since she stepped out of the house, her mother had been harping at her to wear more sets of clothing and she could no longer wear anymore jackets or warm pants. It was crazy hot and she was melting due to the heat.

"Sure." Lei Qian heaved a sigh of relief when he heard her words. At least the woman was not angry at him; he was worried that she would lose her temper at him as well. Fortunately, the woman, though short-tempered, was still much more reasonable than she was in the past.

Once Bai Meiyue and Lei Qian settled down in the RV, their convoy left without them knowing that there was another extra person hiding inside the RV.

The frozen ash plains of the north were silent. Howling winds and snow covered the entire land with nothing left in front of them. When they arrived at the northern plains, everyone turned to look at Bai Meiyue, who was dressed quite warmly.

"Why did you not tell me that it will be this cold if you knew?" Bai Jixuan asked with a frown on his face. He hugged his arms and breathed out a misty puff of breath. He was shivering because of the chill. It was that cold. Even he, as a supernatural ability user, was trembling with cold. He was sure that there was no way any human lived in this place.

Bai Meiyue: "..."

"I didn’t know that it was going to be this cold."

"Liar!"

Bai Meiyue: "..."

She sucked in a breath and said, "I truly had no idea that it was going to be this cold and second brother, I dress up warmly even at the safe base; you can simply say that it was simply a blind cat catching the mouse. Anyway, if you feel cold, you can stick close to Lei Qian like the rest of people."

She pointed to Lei Qian, who was surrounded by people like a human heater. As soon as she finished speaking, Lei Qian turned and shot a glare at her. The man did not seem to be too happy about what she said.

Neither was Bai Jixuan. He glanced at Lei Qian and snorted. "I am fine. I am not that cold." He would rather stick his butt into the snow naked than get close to Lei Qian.

And in fact, he was prepared to face the chill on his own when a hand slipped into his. Startled, he turned to look at the person beside him. He was about to yell at them for touching him but then he saw who it was.

"Qibao?" Bai Jixuan felt his heartbeat skip.

"Hmm? What’s the matter? Do you feel uncomfortable?" Meng Qibao asked while holding his hands. The moment he raised his head and looked at him, Bai Jixuan felt like a wave of potent charm washed over him. If not for the fact that Bai Jixuan was used to it, he would have fallen to his knees.

Instead, he simply shook his head and replied in a low voice, "I am alright." However, as he finished speaking, he did not notice that a wolf tail had appeared behind him and was now swinging left and right.

Seeing this, Bai Zhan could not help but arch a brow. He had a feeling that he was onto something but did not want to put his finger on it.

"Let’s go." Bai Meiyue ignored the two of them and hitched the strap of the bag that she was carrying. As soon as she finished commanding, even the most disobedient ability user stood up straight and followed her. Wang Fugui had opened his eyes and was looking ahead of him. His white eyes stared at the horizon. Beneath his gloves, black tendrils of void flickered like ink in water. They intertwined together, causing sparks to rise, like red hot fire meeting with water.

"They are hiding beneath the shattered overpass," the seer murmured softly, his voice dropping into a warm, gravelly tone reserved only for her. "A rank two zombie. He has high-density bone armour and hyperflex muscles. He also has a corrosive aura that can eat through iron."

He turned his head toward Bai Meiyue, his white eyes catching her reflection. "Shall I kill it? I have developed a new skill."

Bai Meiyue glanced at him. Her eyes were filled with amusement. "We need its core intact. The core of a second-rank zombie can be used for many things. We cannot let it be ruined."

Hearing this, Bai Jixuan groaned. "Ugh, which means that we have to fight those things face-to-face. I hate this."
