Chapter 235

Sun Xiaoming recounted their experiences, his eyes red from crying.

Originally, they set out on this expedition with the purpose of killing more zombies to exchange their crystal cores and boost their strength faster.

However, during their midday rest stop, they happened to encounter a few survivors who happened to be from Xiang City.

What was even more coincidental was that these survivors had passed by the base where Ci Wan and his group were staying.

According to the survivors, a few stakes had been erected in front of the base, and several corpses were hung on them.

The corpses, exposed to the sun and eroded by rain, were rotten beyond recognition and emitted a disgusting odor.

Initially, these survivors wanted to enter the base, but the sight of the corpses scared them and they hurriedly left.

They recounted their experience with expressions of lingering fear.

However, upon hearing this, Ci Wan and his fellows felt as if a tumultuous wave had swept through them.

As for who the corpses belonged to, they didn't need to guess; they knew right away.

That Chang Li would do such a thing was not surprising at all.

Outraged by what they heard and convinced that they couldn't allow the bodies of their loved ones to continue to endure such desecration, they decided to retrieve them and give them a proper burial.

After discussing, they hit the road with the aim of discreetly taking away the corpses.

But, to their surprise, it was all a trap!

The corpses indeed belonged to Ci Wan's father and his group, but it was a trap flawlessly laid out by Chang Li!

Part of the plan was to have Ci Wan and his group fall into the trap in their attempt to respectfully bury the corpses.

As soon as they arrived, they were ambushed.

Luckily, Chang Li was not at the base at that time.

Just his subordinates were there.

But there were too many of them, and they were not weak in terms of strength, Ci Wan's group suffered heavy losses.

If it hadn't been for Ci Wan staking his all to stop the pursuers, they probably wouldn't have been able to escape at all.

But Ci Wan had been seriously injured and lost consciousness, barely clinging to life.

They also lost one of their companions.

Sun Xiaoming choked up when he got to this part of the story.

“What happened to the corpses of Ci Wan's family members?” Yun Xiaoxiao asked.

Sun Xiaoming, his eyes welling up with tears, replied in a resentful tone, “They are still hanging on the stakes, we were discovered before we even got close.”

So, they didn't venture deeper.

If they had, every one of them estimated they wouldn't have made it back. They would have died there.

Hearing this, everyone frowned.

Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly looked up and asked, “Approximately how many people are there?”

Startled, Sun Xiaoming thought for a while, then replied, “I'm not completely sure but I guess there were around six to seven hundred people at Chang Li's side when we left.”

“How strong are they?”

“The most powerful ones are Chang Li, and his two deputies, a man and a woman. They are slightly stronger than sister Wan.

The rest have varying capabilities, some are pretty good, but not as good as sister Wan, probably around Wei Qian's and my level.

Of course, most of them are weaker than us, but they have numbers on their side.”

“Bad news, someone outside is picking a fight!”

Just as Sun Xiaoming finished his sentence, Liu Tao, riding a motorcycle, appeared below the building.

He shouted up at them.

This Liu Tao was the son of Liu Cheng, who escaped from the rice factory.

Both Tao Mi'er and I are now part of the guard team.

Hearing noises, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others peered through the window.

"What's ​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌‍going on?" Lu Chen asked, furrowing his eyebrows.

"Captain, a lot of people suddenly showed up outside. They say they suspect the person they're after has entered our base and want to conduct a search," replied a subordinate.

"What do they look like?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked, narrowing her eyes.

After thinking for a moment, Liu Tao answered, "The one leading them has slanted eyes and a mole on his right chin."

"They're Chang Li's henchmen!"

Sun Xiaoming clenched his teeth, fists trembling uncontrollably.

"They dared to follow us here!"

Yun Xiaoxiao lightly tapped her crossed arms.

She raised an eyebrow, looking towards the entrance.

"Humph, perfect timing.

Do they think they can hurt the people of Yun City whenever they want?"

As she spoke, a hint of cold intensity flashed in Yun Xiaoxiao's eyes.

Nie Yizhou also rolled up his sleeves, "Exactly, if they dare hurt our people, we will take them down!"

"Let's go!"

Xiao Feng was more straightforward, he was already eager to get downstairs.

Seeing them quickly head down, Sun Xiaoming and Wei Qian locked eyes, both witnessing the shock and gratitude in each other’s gaze.

When they first arrived in Yun City, they felt out of place.

After all, it wasn't truly their home.

However, over time, they had thoroughly acclimated to their surroundings.

They have decided to fully commit to staying here.

They started to actively integrate into this place.

They have never felt more at home than now!

At that moment, they really understood what it meant to be protected.

The other party was neither their family nor intimate friends, yet they were willing to stand up for them.

They were more comforting than family, more homely than home!

Their eyes reddened, just another glance at the still-lit operating room had newfound meanings to them, they took a deep breath and hurriedly followed Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.

At the front gate.

Mu Yang was standing alone right at the front.

Several cars were parked in front of him, with a group of twenty or so people confronting him.

The atmosphere between the two parties was not exactly cordial.

"We’ve already said that we suspect that you’re hiding the person we seek.

Just let us come in and search, we'll leave once we’re done."

The leader that had triangular eyes puffed his chest out arrogantly, speaking in an uncouth manner.

Mu Yang snorted coldly, "Is Yun City some place you can simply search just because you say so?"

"Friend, give some face, you don’t want another enemy, do you?"

"Are you threatening me?"

Mu Yang's gentle gaze was suddenly filled with cold ruthlessness.

"How is this a threat? Let us in to search, and we won’t trouble you."

"Go to hell, does our Yun City look like a place for you mongrels to run wild!

Look at yourself in the mirror, with that ugly face, rather than troubling us, you should be hiding at home. Do you even have the capability to trouble us?"

As soon as the triangular-eyed man finished speaking, a coarse voice suddenly echoed.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Following that, several figures appeared by Mu Yang's side.

Originally insulted, Triangular eyes were filled with rage.

He was about to retaliate, but unexpectedly caught sight of Sun Xiaoming and Wei Qian.

He squinted his eyes, "Sure enough, you're here!"

Immediately after, he abruptly attempted to capture Sun Xiaoming and Wei Qian.

But no sooner had he moved, an enormous whip lashed out without warning.

"Crack!"

He was brutally whipped.

His entire body was flung away.

A bloody mark instantly appeared on the left side of his face.

"Dare to touch my people!"

Simultaneously, as he was thrown away, an incredibly domineering child's voice abruptly echoed!
