Mu Chen and Xu Shuhan had cornered Ling Mo here, with a clear intention: they wanted Ling Mo to pay up for their services to get them out of this awkward situation of drifting aimlessly from place to place.
Go ahead and ask, Ling Mo said, stuffing the booklet into his pocket.
Mu Chen couldnt help but glance at the movent, and only when Ling Mo looked back with an inquiring gaze did he clear his throat and say, Big brother, thats not very fair of you!
Whats the matter? Ling Mo feigned ignorance.
You Were so bored here, and we dont know anyone, right? At least you could introduce us around, tell us about your mbers, your past history, and stuff like that, Mu Chen suggested.
Ling Mo chuckled, You could ask around yourselves.
He knew! Mu Chen realized at once.
This guy had led them in and then left them to their own devices, but it was clear now that he had kept an eye on every move they made.
Thinking about it this way, Ling Mo hadnt completely ignored them, but sohow, that realization made things feel even worse!
And the most crucial thing was that there seed to be another layer of aning behind his words
Before Mu Chen and the others had ti to ponder further, Ling Mo asked, You guys look pretty bored, huh?
Didnt we just say Yes, were really bored! Mu Chen tried his best to hold back his frustration, forcing a smile, Big brother, look
Just right I was actually planning to look for you guys later, Ling Mo suddenly said.
Huh? Mu Chen was montarily stunned.
Ling Mos squad was only temporarily assembled, but fostering discipline within the team was not his forte.
The snippets of mory from Jian Qi made Ling Mo very interested in the high level of focus displayed by Niepan.
The zombie-hunting team moved in unison, coordinated seamlessly, and although not everyone was strong, they managed to concentrate everyones strength in one place, which was the true power of teamwork.
However, creating such a team was no easy task.
Ling Mo wasnt sure what roles Mu Chen and the others had played in Niepan, but since they were sent to interact with him, and they even thought of the thod of going undercover, they must have held so status.
Wasnt this the epito of ready-made free labor? What a waste it would be not to use it!
Co help train the team, Ling Mo invited.
Us? Mu Chen was taken aback again.
Yes, I think the three of you work well together. Just get them trained up to your level. What do you say? Its interesting, isnt it? Ling Mo persuaded.
Interesting? There was nothing fun about it at all!
Mu Chen was instantly frustrated. He was a high-level mber of the Niepan Branch! He was here for an important mission, not to work for this money-grubber and lecher!
But just as he was about to refuse, Xu Shuhan stopped him with a look.
Mu Chen was on the verge of tears once more. Indeed, as humiliating as it sounded, at least they now had sothing to do
And being around this big brother, at least they had the opportunity to gather so intelligence.
Alright alright, Mu Chen reluctantly nodded, cursing Ling Mo from head to toe in his heart, thinking that as soon as he found out Ling Mos whereabouts and uncovered the reason behind Jian Qis death, the first thing he would do was to give this big brother a thorough beating!
As Ling Mo and his group headed towards his residence, the room they had just left erupted from silence into chaos.
Damn! Did you see that? Could it be any more aweso? a Psychic exclaid suddenly.
His words ignited the room like a powder keg, snapping everyone out of shock.
Hes so amazing, not moving an inch, and Ye Kai couldnt even touch the hem of his clothes, another person shouted.
Is he really using ntal abilities?
How could it not be ntal abilities with moves that mysterious?
Have you ever seen a Psychic that powerful?
That was my first ti seeing one Its terrifying, thinking about how theres no way to fight him!
While the group was engaged in their heated discussion, they also noticed Ye Kai standing in the middle of the room, in a daze.
His face had turned particularly pale, his body trembling slightly, a clear sign of overexertion.
The complex and curious gazes of the people around him were sothing he was acutely aware of.
Hmph Ignorance, Ye Kai suddenly let out a cold laugh, then sheathed his dual blades and staggered towards the door.
Who is he talking about?
I dont know
Under the cold and distant gazes of the others, Ye Kai opened the door and walked out.
As he closed the door behind him, he took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly.
How many of those left behind truly understood the terror of Ling Mo? To Ye Kai, these people were just ignorant
Big brother.
No sooner had Ling Mo and his group entered the room than the door was pushed open again, and there stood Ye Kai at the doorway.
His expression was no longer as defiant as before but rather serious: Big brother.
Again? Ling Mo looked resigned.
Mu Chen and the other onlooker were curiously staring at Ye Kai, while Gu Shuangshuang and the others had a strange look on their faces, but Ye Lian and her group completely ignored him.
Its not Im not overestimating myself to challenge you. I want to join; teach , Ye Kai said, then after staring at Ling Mo for a while with pursed lips, suddenly bent over, Please teach !
What are you doing? Ling Mo was sowhat startled.
Ye Kai still had his head deeply bowed, speaking in a muffled voice, Im not one to kneel, but this is the utmost sincerity I can show. If you refuse to teach , it ans you dont plan to forgive , and I can cut off one of my own fingers
As he spoke, he lifted his hand and swung it towards his waist.
Alright, alright What eras delinquent did you co from? Ling Mo felt a tingle in his scalp and quickly interrupted him.
Ye Kais finger stopped less than two centiters from the blade, the force of the gesture made Ling Mo feel a surge in ntal power consumption, clearly not a joke.
Hes willing to cut off a finger This guy is really ruthless!
Have you forgiven , big brother? Ye Kai looked up and asked. He wasnt at all surprised that Ling Mo could stop him, but even if Ling Mo hadnt intervened, he wasnt planning on backing down. If he said he would do sothing, he would follow through.
Being stared at from this angle made Ling Mo feel like he was facing a lone wolf.
Ye Kai dared to be a troublemaker, but he also dared to admit his mistakes and apologize, which Ling Mo actually found quite to his liking.
Compared to those who beat around the bush, soone straightforward like Ye Kai was easier to deal with.
He was also in need of soone tough and loyal, and right now, Ye Kai seed to fit the bill.
I was never angry to begin with, Ling Mo said.
But I Ye Kai found it sowhat difficult to say. How could he have been so ignorant?
Its okay, I know you werent just picking a fight. You just couldnt accept , right? Ling Mo asked.
Yeah, I wanted to test you, to learn from you, Ye Kai honestly replied.
Thats all there is to it. You had no ill intentions, so why would I be angry? Ling Mo said.
You dont feel like I disrespected you? Ye Kai wasnt foolish; he knew what his actions implied.
Ling Mo smiled, Because I never thought Id lose. If I had lost, that would have been truly disrespectful.
Ye Kai was initially stunned, then tears filled his eyes.
Indeed, he had lost, so Ling Mo had actually used this opportunity to establish his authority. From the beginning, Ling Mo hadnt taken him seriously; it was Ye Kai who had brought it upon himself
Then let join! Ye Kai still bowed, shouting.
Alright then Ling Mo nodded.
Thank you! Ye Kai buried his head even deeper, paused for several seconds, and then straightened up.
He clenched his fist in secret and then exhaled softly.
Following Ling Mo, he would surely learn a lot, right?
Although he was just a Psychic without an organization or background, his combat experience was far more extensive than theirs
Weve taken in another person, huh Mu Chen was confused, only understanding this one fact amidst the fog.
Xiao Mu, Ling Mo called out, this person is in your charge now. His na is Ye Kai.
Oh wait, whos Xiao Mu?
Big brother, could you not call Ye Kai
Both n shivered simultaneously, thinking although everyone calls you big brother, you look barely twenty-two or twenty-three, co on! Young people should be aware of their youthfulness. Is it appropriate to address them, who are approaching thirty, with such terms?!
