Nian Yiâan nodded and stepped outside the window, spreading his wings and taking flight.
At first, he had some trouble maintaining his balance, but within a second, he had flown two hundred meters.
Yuejian exclaimed, âSo fast!â
âCome down,â Si Fuqing said, clapping her hands. âDonât keep flying, youâll run out of energy soon.â
Nian Yiâan landed, still feeling a bit light-headed. âI feel like I could fly straight to the Western Continent.â
âYou canât fly that far,â Si Fuqing glanced at him. âBy the time you reach the edge of An City, the people from the Supernatural Management Bureau will have arrived.â
Nian Yiâan fell silent, a bit dejected.
âItâs really quite a fast speed he has,â Yuejian said, stroking his chin. âBetter than that guy from the Evolved Being Alliance, the one with the codename âLightning.ââ
âYes, itâs a good means of escape,â Si Fuqing agreed. âIf you canât win, run. Run to me. Donât try to be a hero, understand?â
Nian Yiâan scratched his head. âGot it, Sister Qingqing.â
âThe people who bullied you have been dealt with,â Si Fuqing said. âThey donât have the capability to leak the news that youâre an evolved being. Now that youâve awakened your abilities, make sure you only use them in emergencies.â
Nian Yiâanâs expression grew serious. âI know when to be cautious.â
âGo get some more sleep,â Si Fuqing said, finally taking a sip of water. âWhen you wake up, call uncle.â
Nian Yiâan nodded and obediently went back to his bedroom.
Yuejian looked at the door, his expression complicated. âLittle junior sister, Iâve never seen you this angry before.â
Si Fuqing paused, speaking softly, âIâm just afraid I wonât make it in timeâ¦â
She hadnât made it in time to save Ye Wanlan, who had died in front of her.
And the second time, she still couldnât make it in time; Lu Qingning had also died.
Experiencing such events even once was unbearable.
But it had happened to her twice.
âLittle junior sister, Iâm afraid more trouble will come our way,â Yuejian hesitated. âWe need to be prepared.â
âMore trouble?â Si Fuqing laughed coldly. âThatâs fine. They wonât get away this time. Those shamans dared to use an evolved beingâs blood for experiments. Someone must be behind this.â
Although the genes of evolved beings had progressed, they were still unstable, which could lead to rampages.
The blood of high-level evolved beings was as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid.
Even ordinary people like Ning Tingyi, and evolved beings below Class B, would be injured by just a drop.
As they were talking, the door suddenly burst open.
The person who entered was clearly in a hurry.
A cold wind rushed in, and before Si Fuqing could stand up, she was suddenly embraced tightly.
A familiar scent of osmanthus on a moonlit night filled her senses. She hesitated for a moment, then slowly raised her hands, feeling a bit lost for the first time. âBoss?â
Yu Xiheng paused for a few seconds before slowly standing up straight. âItâs nothing.â
Feng San followed closely behind, sighing in relief. âMiss Si, youâre alright.â
âIâm really fine,â Si Fuqing raised her hand. âBoss, look, Iâm not hurt, not even a hair out of place.â
Yu Xiheng was silent for a moment, then sighed softly. âAlright.â
âIâm just a bit tired,â Si Fuqing said tentatively. âCan I sleep for a while?â
Yu Xiheng nodded again.
Si Fuqing immediately ran into her bedroom and closed the door.
Yuejian tactfully headed to the kitchen.
Feng San looked at Yu Xiheng. âBrother Nine? Someone from the Ning family must be behind this.â
Yu Xiheng stood with his hands behind his back. âItâs time to take action.â
If they didnât act now, some people would forget who they could and couldnât mess with.
