Chapter 268: Sang Chu’s Decision
The Doctor had originally intended to sneak away with his Brother, Bo Zhan, while no one was paying attention, but unexpectedly, Lin Shao Qing caught him directly.
“I originally wanted to cast a long line to catch a big fish, but I didn’t expect only you to show up. Oh well, having something is better than nothing.”
After speaking, Lin Shao Qing looked at Shi Feng beside him: “Hey, do you think Sang Chu made a miscalculation this time?”
Shi Feng: “She probably didn’t expect that group of people to be eaten by Li Ming. Wang Jin said they’ve captured Li Ming’s seeds, and as long as the hidden danger in the hospital is eliminated, the experiment should be able to proceed.”
“I hope Demon King Lord can be reliable.”
Shi Feng didn’t respond to Lin Shao Qing’s words, only using a special cage to trap the Doctor.
Bo Zhan was pinned down by two Magic Beasts, covered in wounds, yet he still tried to struggle to save the Doctor: “Where are you taking my younger brother?”
Lin Shao Qing chuckled: “You should worry about yourself first.”
“Brother, I’m fine, don’t worry.”
The Doctor’s unspoken meaning was for his Brother not to act impulsively, to find an opportunity to escape and not mind him. But Bo Zhan struggled fiercely. Unexpectedly, a Magic Beast kicked him with such force that Bo Zhan spat out a mouthful of blood and passed out.
“Brother!”
“The person you want is me, let my Brother go!”
Shi Feng ignored the Doctor, waved his hand gently, and an Orc extended sharp fingers, twisting Bo Zhan from the ground and throwing him backward.
An Orc guarding the giant cage caught Bo Zhan, who fell from the sky, and threw him inside. The iron cage, tens of meters high, was densely packed with people.
Sang Jing Wen and Xiao Yi Fei cleaned up the battlefield. Besides those killed, fewer than a hundred people remained. Among these hundred people, there was only one woman.
A person with considerable Strength, who chose to stay out of the conflict during the struggle between both sides.
Xie Nan stood by the cage, raising her hands: “Everyone, I don’t want to be your enemy. It’s just that I was imprisoned by Fang Che in his Base, and I followed out of desperation. Please, consider that I haven’t harmed anyone and spare my life.”
Sang Chu descended from the Flying Boat and saw Xie Nan: “You should also know that it’s easy to get in and hard to get out.”
Xie Nan: “City Lord, please rest assured, Xie Nan has no intention of leaving. Whatever the City Lord wants Xie Nan to do, I will do it. I only seek a place to settle down, a place where I won’t be bullied.”
As she spoke, her eyes instantly turned red, and her tearful appearance was utterly pitiable. It was a shame, however, that she was facing Sang Chu, a group of stone-hearted straight men and women.
Sang Chu: “Since that’s the case, then you can stay, Ya Ru.”
“Sister Sang!”
Ma Ya Ru walked out from the crowd. Sang Chu looked at her and said: “You take Xie Nan to get settled, and then have her list the names of Fang Che’s group to prevent any stragglers.”
“Yes.” Ma Ya Ru turned to Xie Nan and said: “Follow me.”
Xie Nan looked at Ma Ya Ru, who was only Level Five, yet showed no fear towards her and even offered to take her away alone. Her previous calculations instantly fell through, and she could only observe for now.
Watching the backs of the two as they left, Xiao Yi Fei placed his hand on Sang Jing Wen’s shoulder: “Do you think this woman is genuinely surrendering or just playing along?”
“No matter what she is, Ma Ya Ru is more than capable of dealing with her.”
“Indeed.”
The two smiled in tacit understanding. Thinking about how the cold Ma Ya Ru was so compatible with a talkative Magic Beast, with her giving a cold look while it chattered incessantly beside her during practice, the scene was quite amusing.
Not long after, Wang Jin and the others returned. Upon seeing Sang Chu, Wang Jin quickly told her about Li Ming: “City Lord, the Thing on Li Ming has been retrieved.”
Lin Shao Qing heard this and quickly took out a Box, walking over: “Quickly spit the Thing in here!”
The Invisibility Rat appeared and spat the Seed into the box. However, in just a short while, the Seed had already sprouted.
Tu You flew nearby holding Tu Lin’s egg, looking at the Seed with confusion: “This, why does the Power of this Thing seem to have weakened?”
Lin Shao Qing: “It’s probably because the Blood Moon’s Power is weakening, so the Power it receives is also weakening. But it doesn’t matter, the more of these Seeds there are, the more effective they are for my experiment. Sang Chu, hurry up and clean the Hospital, I’m waiting to research this Mental Supernatural Ability User!”
“I know. Xue You has already informed me. Don’t worry, you guys go to Dr. Li’s Laboratory for now. Sister Hua Xi, please prepare two more laboratories for them to use.”
Hua Xi: “Okay, I’ll go do it right away.”
Sang Chu: “Shi Feng, you and Xi Rui take the Orcs to clear the scene. The rest of the people can go back to Rest. The Magic Beasts will continue to Patrol.”
As she spoke, she also sent a message to Grandma Yun Xiang, saying that the matter here was handled and the guards at the City Gate could withdraw, and then have the Magic Beasts continue to Patrol.
Li Yue’s Laboratory.
Fang Chao sat nervously to the side. Li Yue looked at Sang Chu entering and immediately understood her purpose: “A Chu.”
“Dr. Li, what is Fang Chao’s current physical condition?”
“The data isn’t good. He suffered too much damage before. Even after Shi Feng supplemented him for a period, he hasn’t recovered that quickly.”
Sang Chu was silent for a moment, then she sat in front of Fang Chao. Seeing his nervous appearance, she comforted him: “Don’t be nervous, I just want to tell you something. Whether you do it or not, the decision is yours.”
“Sister Sang, please tell me.”
Fang Chao sat up straight, his entire body extremely tense. Sang Chu poured him a cup of Tea: “You won’t be affected by those Mutated people, you should have some feeling about this, right?”
“A little. At first, I just thought the people who were deceived were very foolish. Their words were full of loopholes, yet they were treated as sacred decrees.”
Sang Chu: “Yes, they are good at tempting people’s hearts. Once they are infatuated, they lose their minds and cannot think normally. But you won’t have this situation, so even if those people discuss it in front of you, you won’t be affected. Even when others are influenced to resist the Base’s various inspections, you are unaffected. This is also why you are the first to go for checks every day.”
“I, I thought it was because I was obedient.”
Fang Chao said this in a very small voice, but both Sang Chu and Li Yue heard it. Li Yue couldn’t help but smile and say: “Of course, that’s part of the reason.”
Sang Chu: “Because your physique is special, you are not affected. And now, we need this kind of Power from you, but your body is very weak. So, I still want to discuss this with you. I need your blood to save Lu Min Feng. In return, I can give you any Resources you need for Cultivation. I will have Supernatural Ability Users accelerate the growth of Milk Fruit for you to consume. I will also send people to find your parents, and even turn them back from Zombies into normal people.”
“Do I, do I only need a little blood?”
Sang Chu: “More than a little. It’s temporarily uncertain how much he needs to recover, but I can guarantee that your life will not be affected.”
