Chapter 299 - 296: Cadar Appears

Chapter 299: Chapter 296: Cadar Appears

Damn it!

The Little Poison Grass in that other world came from her space, so it was ineffective against her.

But the Little Poison Grass in this world must have been harvested some other way, so she’s not immune!

However, her spiritual power was extremely strong.

Even though her body was stiff, Chen Xing was not completely unconscious.

Two people carrying the Little Poison Grass under a glass cover approached, but while they were still a good distance from Chen Xing, they found they couldn’t get any closer.

Chen Xing’s Defense Ability had activated the moment she fell, protecting her securely.

No matter what the two Superpower Users tried, they couldn’t get through it.

They could only watch helplessly as Chen Xing, after being down for only a few minutes, got back to her feet.

Before everyone else could get up, the two fled with the Little Poison Grass.

Although they weren’t wearing military uniforms or white lab coats, Chen Xing could tell they were from the Lu Family Research Institute.

"They were from the Lu Family Research Institute, and they’ve already escaped!" Vice General Du said, getting to his feet a moment after Chen Xing.

Vice General Du and the others hadn’t expected the enemy’s sneak attack. "Thank goodness you were here!"

He saw Chen Xing retract her Defense Ability.

Otherwise, seeing the Song Family Army down, the enemy would have surely moved in to finish them off.

Chen Xing nodded.

’Looks like I really need to be careful from now on.’

’I have to be careful when I eat, careful when I sleep, careful even when I’m just walking around.’

Soon, Chen Xing arrived at the dining room in Song Yiguo’s home.

Song Yiguo was not alone in the room; another woman was with him.

’The mixed-race Cadar?!’

Chen Xing felt a surge of excitement.

Just like before, Cadar was holding a black cat, her own feline eyes fixed intently on Chen Xing.

Chen Xing immediately averted her gaze, not wanting to tip her hand.

"This is Xing Yue, the one with four superpowers you wanted to see!" Song Yiguo said, making the introduction.

’He didn’t know if it was a coincidence or something else.’

’Cadar had actually been in the country all along.’

’And she had heard about the appearance of a quad-ability Superpower User so quickly that she came straight to him.’

’As for why she was so eager to meet Xing Yue, he had no idea.’

’But one thing was certain: if she tried to poach his person, he didn’t care if she was connected to Blake or not. He would kill her all the same!’

Chen Xing feigned a curious look at Cadar.

Cadar, for her part, wasn’t as arrogant as she had been back then.

After observing Chen Xing for a good while, she finally asked, "Miss Xing Yue, how did you awaken so many superpowers?"

’Logically, it should be impossible.’

’The most powerful Superpower Users she had ever seen only possessed three attributes simultaneously.’

’You could count the number of such people in the world on one hand.’

’Song Yiguo, sitting right here, was one of them. As for what his superpowers were, no one knew to this day.’

"By sleeping," Chen Xing bluffed.

’She had stolen all of them from other people; she hadn’t awakened a single one on her own.’

’Without her space, she wouldn’t have any superpowers at all.’

Song Yiguo was speechless.

Cadar’s expression immediately soured, and a haughty indignation crept onto her face. "Are you joking with me?"

"Are we close enough for me to joke with you?" Chen Xing retorted bluntly.

Cadar’s expression grew even uglier, but she was still wary of someone with multiple superpowers.

After a moment, she composed herself and deliberately reached for her ear, revealing her emerald earrings. "I wonder, Miss Chen Xing, do you like my earrings?"

This sudden shift in topic to her earrings left Song Yiguo completely baffled.

In order not to arouse Cadar’s suspicion, Chen Xing mirrored Song Yiguo’s expression. After a brief pause, she said, "They’re alright, I guess?" Her look clearly conveyed, ’Is there something wrong with you?’

’I absolutely cannot show her any interest in the emerald earrings,’ Chen Xing thought. ’Otherwise, it’ll be much harder to snatch them later.’

Cadar fell for it. She touched her earrings with a hint of disappointment. "Well, I happen to love emerald jewelry!"

With that, she sat down at the dining table.

Chen Xing wanted nothing more than to go up and snatch them right then and there.

’But she couldn’t, not now!’

’Song Yiguo was an unpredictable factor.’

’Now that she couldn’t use her space to easily restrain people, she had to be extremely careful about how she went about snatching things.’

During the meal, Chen Xing learned that Cadar was staying in the Li Family’s territory.

The Li Family, despite only having their royal bloodline, was still able to live in the area of the safety zone reserved for the Four Great Families, all thanks to their good relationship with Cadar and Blake.

Otherwise, they would have been kicked out of the safety zone long ago.

Cadar tested Chen Xing several more times, but ultimately left disappointed.

Chen Xing was getting a headache.

’Logically speaking, Cadar should have obtained the bracelet by now as well.’

’But from the looks of it, she hadn’t had the chance yet.’

’So, in this vast world, where was she supposed to find the other three pieces of jewelry?’

’Originally, she had planned to find Cheng Fang, take her piece, and then go after Cadar.’

’She had been banking on Cadar having the other three pieces, but who would have thought that this world’s Cadar only had this one piece so far?’

After leaving Song Yiguo’s home, Chen Xing sensed danger as she walked toward the medical facility.

It was a blatant, obvious danger.

Chen Xing quickly located Situ Yuanyuan hiding in the shadows.

’To think that even here, Situ Yuanyuan still held such a grudge against her.’

’In Song Yiguo’s eyes, she had only ever been a partner. Why couldn’t the woman just let it go?’

Chen Xing ignored Situ Yuanyuan and continued toward the medical facility.

Situ Yuanyuan considered attacking several times but didn’t dare to make a move.

She had heard about Chen Xing’s Defense Ability.

However... just as Chen Xing was about to reach the medical facility, Situ Yuanyuan suddenly vanished.

Chen Xing felt that something was wrong.

’With Situ Yuanyuan’s petty nature, there was no way she would just let her go.’

Scanning her surroundings, she slowly pulled open the main doors of the medical facility.

The moment the doors opened, a blast of gas erupted from within. If her Defense Ability hadn’t activated instantly, she would have been thrown a great distance.

The gas carried a foul odor.

When Chen Xing took a closer look, she saw that everything the gas had touched was scorched black.

Fuck!

She hadn’t wanted to get entangled with Situ Yuanyuan again, but she’d been tricked by her once more.

The blast had been loud.

Vice General Du immediately rushed over.

"It must have been Situ Yuanyuan!" Chen Xing described Situ Yuanyuan’s movements and pointed out that the gas smelled like the Situ family’s modified natural gas.

It was a good thing she was the one opening the door; anyone else would have been killed instantly.

Vice General Du immediately reported the incident.

Chen Xing, however, returned to her quarters and closed her eyes to rest and focus her mind.

She had to put the matter of Situ Yuanyuan aside for now.

Cadar had mentioned that her trip was short and that she would be leaving the Capital City tomorrow.

She had to make her move tonight, or she would lose her chance.

When night fell, Chen Xing finally slipped out of her bedroom.

Of course, she was invisible.

Her Invisibility Ability had already reached the Seventh Level, so there was no chance of her being discovered.

Ever since she started absorbing Crystal Cores, all of her superpowers had been leveling up. The abilities she absorbed were already high-level to begin with, and she’d even gotten bonuses from absorbing duplicates. As a result, even her weakest ability, her Control Ability, had reached Level Six.

She remembered that the machines in the Duole Safety Zone could easily detect outside anomalies.

However... she had lived in the Duole Safety Zone for a time and was very familiar with the Li Family.

Without setting off any alarms, she arrived in the Li Family’s territory.

Chen Xing quickly found Cadar’s residence, which was guarded by a group of tall, formidable foreign bodyguards.

But the drawback of the Invisibility Ability, even at a high level, was that she still had to physically open and close doors to enter or exit a room.

She would need to find the right opportunity to get into Cadar’s room.
