Chapter 195
He restrained himself and passed her on to another female team member. He slowly explained what had happened downstairs. Since they could go to B city together, then they’ll follow their tail secretly to B city.The road was so large. The other group couldn’t possibly be so strict as to decide which path they should take. They didn’t really have anything against Ming Mei. They all thought it was that man who had been too ruthless. How blind was he to hurt such a beautiful woman?
Early the next day, XunMi and her group drove off. Although they were curious why they didn’t see any dead bodies or zombies near this mansion, they weren’t nosy people. When they got on the road near the forest, XunMi and Ye MingYe stiffened. There was something here. Its’ skills were high. XunMi and Ye MingYe turned to each other, in thought.
“Keep going forward, don’t stop.” Ye MingYe’s electric energy was already flickering in his hands. XunMi’s water wall was also ready to pour out. Ling Chen also prepared his weapons. The three of them worked together harmoniously.
“It’s a transforming plant.” XunMi used her earth abilities to perceive that there was a strong energy fluctuation coming closer and closer to them. “It has mind abilities. Be careful.” Right after she spoke, the attack began. They saw that the creature was a giant pink flower. It looked like a piranha flower.
“You defend, I’ll attack. Ling Chen, prepare for sneak attack. Don’t hit its energy stone. XunMi, get ready to attack at any moment. This thing is at least level four. Protect yourself.” Ye MingYe quickly thought of some different attack methods to combat the flower and mentioned them to his XunMi.
XunMi nodded. No matter who’s plan they used, it all represented their group’s strength. Especially seeing her husband thinking on her behalf after the last lifetime’s hatred, XunMi couldn’t help but feel a bit moved.
The most terrifying thing about mind abilities was their power to take over someone else’s mind. Out of the three of them, Ling Chen had the lowest level of skill. XunMi created an individual water wall for him.
She and Ye MingYe were both Level 5 with their skills. It was enough to fight the flower head on. But they would still need more time to take it down without killing it.
While her husband distracted the flower, XunMi snuck towards the other side of the forest. She had justinvestigated. This flower’s energy stone was located in its roots. And its roots weren’t here. She looked around before making certain that the section with a large hole was the location of the flower’s roots. XunMi felt nauseous just looking at dark blood water oozing out and that strong disgusting smell. Who knew how many things were buried under here. Those missing people from the village were probably all here. Her eyes flashed. In the apocalypse, not only did you need to defend yourself from other people, but now plants too. The place for human existence grew smaller and smaller.
XunMi’s thoughts didn’t distract from her physical movements. The vines in her hands floated up into the air. XunMi used her strength to push her energy at that hole. She didn’t want to collect the flower right now. She couldn’t accept such a disgusting thing. If she hadn’t known, she might have considered it. When its’ roots are harmed, the flower outside was naturally injured too. It tried to quickly scurry back under the soil. Ye MingYe stopped it in its tracks with a bolt of electricity. Its four flower petals became three, its pink color dyed black.
The flower wasn’t stupid, it immediately attacked back with mind abilities. Unfortunately, his opponent was the male lead with high levelled skills and the advantage of rebirth. Its mind abilities could only slow down Ye MingYe’s movements. But it was enough time to get back to his roots.
XunMi was fighting against the roots and stems that had crawled out of the soil. She used her spiritual energy to mold her water abilities into ice abilities, using it to break off a stem. The other stem was being choked by her vines. XunMi hadn’t decided to let the last stem off easily either. When XunMi saw the flower running back home as if to save its stems, XunMi shot an icicle in its direction. The icicle stabbed the entire flower into a nearby tree, temporarily disabling it from coming closer. When she felt the powerful mind abilities attacking her, XunMi’s lips curved into a malicious smile.
Did no one understand that her most powerful ability was using the mind? It actually dared to try to beat her at her own game? Although spiritual energy wasn’t the same as mind abilities, it was still a power ranked higher than mind abilities. It was easy to disguise it as mind abilities.
By the time Ye MingYe arrived, XunMi had already finished off all three stems. The three flower petals fell to the floor next to the tree without spirit.
XunMi walked over. Waste utilization. She plucked off the three petals and threw them into her bag. As for that shiny stone on the stem, XunMi handed it over to her husband. She didn’t have true mind abilities so this energy stone would be wasted on her. Ye MingYe didn’t argue with her and instead accepted it.
“Did you get hurt?” He didn’t ask why she didn’t use the flower for herself. He believed that she had her own plans. He will only respect her decisions, not disrupt them.
“No, don’t worry.” XunMi grabbed Ye MingYe’s arm and smiled. The two leisurely walked back, leaving behind a ruthless scene.
Before returning to the car, XUnMi stopped in her steps. “Those people…”
“Don’t worry about them. As long as they don’t bother us, it’s fine.” Ye MingYe also knew that the people from last night had been following them. His eyes darkened. They wanted to get a easier path into the city? How could he make it that easy for them?
XunMi nodded and didn’t say anything. She was beginning to realize something about the male leads in these books. As soon as they stepped out the door, beautiful women and loyal disciples come rushing over. As long as there was a woman, there would be a thrilling arc. If it were a man, he was either a loyal team member or a villain cannon fodder. From their current situation, Yu WenBo was probably a cannon fodder. As for random missions, those were a must.
Just like just now. They had barely started their journey when they bumped into a level four superability holder.
XunMi didn’t look back once at the people behind them. The whole drive out, Ling Chen had an annoyed expression on his face. That group of people were really ignorant.
The group moved pretty quickly. Before sunset, they had met back up with Song ZiQian’s group. The members seemed to have undergone different degrees of suffering. Their group of citizens seemed to have shrank too.
“Miss Ming.” Song ZiQian saw XunMi and walked forward to greet her. He wasn’t too familiar with her companions but still nodded his head politely.
“How are you doing, Leader Song?” XunMi looked around.
Song ZiQian didn’t hide anything. He sighed, “We met some transformed plants on our way here. We lost a whole truck of people and a few military men.”
