Chapter 408: Follow Me
Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave
The white-clothed girl was like a deer in the forest. She looked like so delicate, and her eyes exuded a bright l.u.s.ter.
Chang Shengkai felt proud when looking at her. Who wouldn"t be proud of such an excellent girl, when she had been willing to follow him by her own will?
Outside the War League Market, inside that mining truck, Ran Xiyu was shocked when she heard that Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had found her sister. She tried her best to detect her presence through her power, and finally, she locked on the white-clothed girl. Although she couldn"t see her, Ran Xiyu got a sense of familiarity when noticing her sister"s energy fluctuation, and she became excited.
"Sister! I came to get out of here! Please come with me," Ran Xiyu"s voice sounded in Ran Yunsha"s mind gently.
The white-clothed girl"s original smile became stiff when she heard that voice.
"Sister!?" She was sure it was Ran Xiyu"s voice. However, she quickly she smiled again and looked at Jiang Lius.h.i.+ quietly.
"What do you have to suggest?" Chang Shengkai asked.
"My suggestion is…Didn"t we find a special plant not long ago?" Ran Yunsha said slowly.
"Stop right there," Chang Shengkai interrupted Ran Yunsha.
Although he had a special kind of affection for Ran Yunsha, Chang Shengkai, after all, was a leader so his decision would not be influenced by personal emotions. But he felt it was quite strange. Ran Yunsha was earnest and taciturn. How could she utter those words? It was absurd!
"I"m sorry." Ran Yunsha lowered her head.
"Special plants?" When Jiang Lius.h.i.+ heard that, he was astonished. His intuition told him that the special plant mentioned by Ran Yunsha were the ones that could secrete active metals.
While Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was thinking, his were always locked on Ran Yunsha. Her temperament was quite different from her sister, Ran Xiyu.
Ran Xiyu was self-contained but, Ran Yunsha seemed weak, unable to withstand a single breeze.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ guessed that Ran Yunsha knew who they were by now, but she could keep her calm. That showed she was not an ordinary girl. Both Ran Xiyu and Ran Yunsha, they were indeed Ran Group"s princesses.
Chang Shengkai noticed Jiang Lius.h.i.+ expression, and he was enraged. "How dare he to stare at my woman!?"
"Who is this lady? Why don"t you introduce her to us?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ asked.
"She is Ran Yunsha, our staff officer. She has been following me for a long time now," Chang Shengkai tried his best to suppress his anger and explained in a low voice.
Actually, Chang Shengkai was a possessive individual, and he felt annoyed with Jiang Lius.h.i.+ staring at Ran Yunsha. If his members or any others stared at Ran Yunsha in that way, he would have already dug their eyes out.
"Ran Yunsha? Wonderful!" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was excited.
Zhang Hai and Sun Kun looked at each other and clenched their shotguns. In an instant, several ideas occurred in Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s mind. However, Ran Yunsha waved her fingers in secret, indicating him not to act rashly.
"This…she doesn"t want me to be rush?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ thought, and then he calmed down.
"My guests, why don"t you have a rest first? The two mutant nuclei belong to my team, so I should discuss things with my subordinates…" Chang Shengkai said slowly to Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
"Good," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ answered.
"Zhang Shan, clean up the best room in Ling Tian Restaurant," Chang Shengkai said to Zhang Shan.
"No problem. Distinguished guests, please follow me." Zhang Shan led them to that restaurant.
When Chang Shengkai made sure that they had left the Overlord Hall, he suddenly slammed both hands on the iron table.
"Bang!"
The hard iron table was shattered under his tyrannical power.
"F*ckers from Shenhai Island! They don"t know the immensity of heaven and earth!" Chang Shenghai shouted with bloodshot eyes. He looked very scary.
Ran Yunsha just lowered her head without saying anything. At the moment, she noticed Chang Shengkai hugging his head suddenly.
"Your Excellency Chang, do you have a headache again? I will bring you some herbs…" Ran Yunsha asked.
"...Yunsha, thankfully you are good with cultivating herbs. Increase the dose. Maybe my special ability is about to evolve, that"s why I have these headaches," Chang Shengkai gritted his teeth and said.
…
The Ling Tian Restaurant"s interior was extremely luxurious. In this post-apocalyptic world, it was the most extravagant place in Pan Zhu City.
Zhang Shan took Jiang Lius.h.i.+ and the others into the best suite and excused himself.
"Xiyu, can you detect anyone keeping an eye on us?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ asked as soon as they entered the room.
"In the building located in the northeast, there are three people. In the building behind us, just one person…just north."" Ran Xiyu accurately reported the positions of several scouts.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ nodded. "Zhang Hai, Sun Kun, pull all the curtains up. Keep guard in turns. Everyone, get some rest," Jiang Liush ordered.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ knew clearly that Chang Shengkai was not a kind guy, so they had to be careful. Most of his team members were still in the mining truck, which Ying had driven next to the restaurant"s entrance. Once the situation got dangerous, they would help immediately.
After the curtains were pulled up, the room became dark.
"Brother Jiang, I"d like to bring my sister back with me. Chang Shengkai is a bad guy," Ran Xiyu said firmly. She couldn"t imagine what her sister had suffered. She had also fallen into the hands of some bad people, and if not for Jiang Lius.h.i.+, she would have been extremely miserable. As Yunsha"s sister, she had to rescue her.
"Rest a.s.sured, I"m here," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ rea.s.sured her. And then he sat against the wall, holding a submachine gun. Once something happened, he could shoot at once.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s mind seemed to have a magical effect on Ran Xiyu, and she calmed down. "Yeap, I trust you." She nodded. And then she also sat against the wall not far away from Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
Feeling Jiang Lius.h.i.+ around her, a warm feeling coursed through Ran Xiyu"s heart. "Thank you," Ran Xiyu said gratefully.
Ran Xiyu leaned against Jiang Lius.h.i.+"s shoulder gently. "I"ll close my eyes to replenish my power," Ran Xiyu said.
In the darkness, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ didn"t say anything, just holding his submachine gun. On his shoulder, the young girl"s breathing was gentle, with a touch of faint warmth.
"I must help Xiyu fulfill her wish," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ thought.
They didn"t know how long had been past, but Jiang Lius.h.i.+ suddenly opened his eyes.
"Someone came," Ran Xiyu said at the same time. Through the shared spiritual vision, Jiang Lius.h.i.+ saw a red spot coming to the restaurant.
Zhang Hai and Sun Kun suddenly woke up. Ling clutched her dagger, staring at the direction of the door.
Several crisp sounds came suddenly.
"Who is it?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ asked.
It was silent outside the door, and then a soft, weak voice came, "Sister. It"s me."
"Ran Yunsha?" Jiang Lius.h.i.+ reacted at once. He opened the door and saw a girl in white dress standing outside. She was like lilac in full bloom at night.
Ran Xiyu was standing behind Jiang Lius.h.i.+ with tears in eyes. And then the two sisters embraced each other.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ went out silently. Seeing they were crying, Zhang Hai"s eyes became red. At that moment, Sun Kun signaled at Zhang Hai.
"What?"
"Didn"t you see Brother Jiang going out?" Sun Kun stared at Zhang Hai and said. Zhang Hai reacted and hurriedly took his shotgun, following Sun Kun.
Everyone waited silently outside the door, and occasional low-pitched sobs came from inside. In this terrible post-apocalyptic world, only quite a few relatives, friends and lovers could live and meet each other again.
After a while, the door was pushed open by Ran Xiyu. "Brother Jiang, I"m so sorry." Ran Xiyu said.
"It"s okay," Jiang Lius.h.i.+ comforted her.
"Captain Jiang, my dear sister had told me everything you"ve been through. Thank you for taking care of her." Ran Yunsha had dried her tears and bowed to Jiang Lius.h.i.+.
"You are welcome. Your sister is a member of s.h.i.+ Ying Squad, so it"s the least I could do." Jiang Lius.h.i.+ waved his hand. Being thanked by a beautiful girl, he didn"t know what to say next.
"Yunsha, come with me. Let"s leave immediately. You don"t need to be scared anymore," Ran Xiyu said holding Ran Xiyu"s hands.
"No, I can"t go now," Ran Xiyu said and shook her head.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was shocked and wondered why.
"Are you afraid of Chang Shengkai"s pursuit? Don"t worry, we have already planned everything before coming here. We"ll be already far away once he finds out that you"re gone," Ran Xiyu said calmly.
However, when Ran Yunsha heard that, she still shook her head. "I"m not worried about this, but I really can"t go."
"This...why?" Ran Xiyu finally got anxious. They had come here with much efforts, but Ran Yunsha didn"t want to follow them. They had never expected such an outcome.
"Sister, I hope you can leave with me," Ran Yunsha turned to Jiang Lius.h.i.+ and said.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ was flabbergasted.
What did that mean!?
"Be careful, killing intent!" Suddenly, Ran Xiyu became nervous. Even as the sound of her voice died away, a big sound came.
The windows on the north side had been knocked open, and a man rushed in like a cannonball. The broken gla.s.s shards were like sharp swords, tearing everything around.
Zhang Hai responded quickly and picked up an ebony table and stood in front of Jiang Lius.h.i.+ and the others. Numerous sharp shards were deeply plunged into the wooden table.
Jiang Lius.h.i.+ had seen the a.s.sailant - Chang Shengkai!
"Give me all your evolution crystals, and I will leave you with intact bodies!"
