"Hun, enough, I don’t want to drink your blood anymore..." Chu ngyao, after swallowing so of Liu Hun’s blood, had scarlet blood at the corners of her mouth.
The blood she just drank amounted to almost a large bowl. Chu ngyao knew that if this continued, Liu Hun would soon collapse.
This was not the outco she wanted to see, so no matter what, she would not drink Liu Hun’s blood again.
"Drink a little more; it might have so effect." Liu Hun’s pale cheeks showed no trace of blood, and his cracked lips slightly curved as he continued to speak to Chu ngyao.
"No, even if it ans death, I won’t drink anymore!" Even though Liu Hun’s blood might be useful, Chu ngyao couldn’t bear to see Liu Hun in such a state.
Seeing that Chu ngyao refused to swallow more of his blood, Liu Hun was also helpless.
After simply bandaging the wound, Liu Hun, without any hesitation, got up and intended to head outside.
"Hun, where are you going?" Chu ngyao asked Liu Hun with a look of concern.
"I’m going to the research lab." Liu Hun had little confidence in his own blood. If it didn’t work, Chu ngyao would die in less than a day.
In other words, he only had at most a day to save Chu ngyao.
Just standing up, Liu Hun felt a wave of dizziness transmit from his head, and his body swayed, almost causing him to fall.
"Hun, take a break. You haven’t rested for three days and nights, and you’ve just wasted so much blood." Chu ngyao supported Liu Hun, her beautiful eyes filled with tears more than anything else, besides being touched.
To save her, Liu Hun did not care about anything. Such a thing would move anyone to tears, let alone Chu ngyao.
"If my blood isn’t effective, you’ll only have a day left, I can’t delay!" Liu Hun forced himself to hold on, showed Chu ngyao a smile, and then turned to walk outside.
Upon reaching outside, the crowd that was originally there had dispersed, leaving only Xiao Wu and the others.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu, you two are considered the strongest. Prepare yourselves, and later co with to check out that cave. Of course, if you don’t want to, I won’t force you." Liu Hun said to Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu in a serious tone.
"Brother Fei, we have no reason to refuse. Without you, there wouldn’t be us." Xiao Wu shook his head earnestly.
To this, Liu Hun smiled and did not speak.
As his subordinates, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu were never overly constrained by Liu Hun, nor did he force them to do things they didn’t want to do; instead, they viewed this as Liu Hun’s trust in them, so they would always follow his orders without hesitation.
Even though they knew that following him to the cave might endanger their lives, they still showed no hesitation, which moved Liu Hun.
As the three headed towards the mysterious cave, Liu Hun was unaware that soone had captured and uploaded a video of his earlier earnest apology.
After everyone saw this video, the previous scolding of Liu Hun suddenly stopped.
Regardless of who it was, there was always a portion of kindness in everyone’s heart. Ultimately, the matter wasn’t Liu Hun’s fault. Even without Liu Hun’s efforts in Shanghe Village, the rats would have erged eventually.
For everyone’s sake, Liu Hun had not slept for three days and nights, enduring such grievances. He could have just walked away, but he didn’t, and instead, apologized to everyone. This caused people to feel moved and understand him.
No one doubted that Liu Hun was putting on a show. The incident happened so suddenly, and in the video, Liu Hun’s pale face and bloodshot eyes couldn’t be faked.
With just an apology, he regained everyone’s respect and approval, which was sothing he never expected.
...
"Is this the mysterious cave?" At this mont, Liu Hun stood at the foot of the mountain behind, looking at the huge cave ahead, his face showing so shock.
The cave didn’t lead into the mountain or to the summit but stretched deep underground, bottomless and deep, like the gates of Hell.
The diater of the cave was about one ter, so even two people could go down simultaneously without any issue.
"Brother Fei, how could it be like this?" Looking at the mysterious, bottomless cave ahead, Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu’s faces showed a hint of shock.
From the outbreak of the epidemic until now, few people had co to see this cave, as everyone feared contracting the disease.
Even Liu Hun was here for the first ti.
"Yeah, if this tunnel is straight, where did those rats co from? The walls are extrely smooth, those rats couldn’t climb up." At that mont, Xiao Liu couldn’t help but exclaim.
"To figure out these questions, I’m afraid we’ll have to go down once. Xiao Wu, go back and prepare so necessary tools. We’ll go down right away." Liu Hun took a deep breath, and his bloodshot eyes carried a determined look.
"Brother Fei, why don’t we go down first and take a look? You’re really too weak right now, I’m worried..." Xiao Liu, standing by the side, spoke in a deep voice upon seeing Liu Hun’s condition.
"You’re not doctors, so even if you go down, it won’t be much help. Just follow my instructions, and later if you want, you can co with , but if you don’t want to, I won’t force you." Liu Hun nodded at the two of them and directly instructed.
Seeing Liu Hun’s insistence, the two people didn’t say much more, as they knew very well that once Liu Hun made a decision, no one could change it.
While Xiao Wu went back to prepare so necessities, Liu Hun sat cross-legged on the ground and began to recover. Although ti was tight, any recovery was better than none.
However, when Xiao Wu brought back the rope and other tools, he was accompanied by two others.
"Liu Hun, what’s going on with you? Even if you were researching a vaccine, it shouldn’t have consud so much of your Essence Blood, right?" Long Bing’er asked Liu Hun directly as soon as she entered the scene.
Opening his eyes, looking at the aloof Long Bing’er and the young man beside her, Liu Hun replied mildly, "I’m fine. I suppose you’ve co for this cave as well?"
"It’s been several days, and not just you, but no one dostically or abroad has developed a vaccine for this new virus, so they sent us over to investigate this cave, to see if we can find anything internally." Long Bing’er slightly furrowed her brows, surprised at Liu Hun’s current weakness.
Their mission was indeed to explore this mysterious cave, but Long Bing’er was not a doctor, and even if she went down, Liu Hun would also have to follow.
Yet, what precisely lay within this cave, Long Bing’er didn’t know, so if any danger arose, Liu Hun’s condition would be problematic.
"Since you’re here, it ans one more companion." Liu Hun nodded.
This plague was terrifyingly overwhelming. If not controlled promptly, who knew how many more would die. It’s no surprise they sent Long Bing’er here.
"Would you like a half-day rest?" Long Bing’er wasn’t sure why Liu Hun was in such a sorry state, but everyone needed her now, so she couldn’t afford to slip up.
"Delaying even half a day ans more people will die. I’m not in too bad a shape. Since we’re going down, let’s go." Liu Hun directly refused Long Bing’er’s good intentions, and after getting the ropes and other tools ready, the young man who ca with Long Bing’er descended first to take the lead.
Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu followed, and finally Liu Hun and Long Bing’er, not because they were afraid of dying, but because Long Bing’er had to protect Liu Hun.
Others could die, but Liu Hun absolutely must not.
"Your two subordinates don’t seem like ordinary bodyguards. Their skills and movents are almost standard military actions, and it’s long-term training. I wonder how much blood they have on their hands?" As Liu Hun and Long Bing’er slid down, she looked at Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu below and comnted casually to Liu Hun.
Upon hearing this, Liu Hun’s expression slightly changed. He glanced at Long Bing’er and, seeing her calm deanor, breathed a sigh of relief.
If Long Bing’er really wanted to investigate Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, it wouldn’t be difficult. If the relationship with the Zero rcenary Group was exposed, he would be in serious trouble in the future.
"Rest assured, I don’t have the leisure to investigate these people. But after this is over, you must join the Dragon Sect. I allow you to be an outside mber without participating too much in the missions." Long Bing’er suddenly brought up this matter.
Just as Liu Hun was about to refuse, Long Bing’er pressed on, "You’re such a mysterious person, you surely aren’t ordinary. If I look into so matters, your troubles might grow. I’m not like those easily fooled civilians."
"Are you threatening ?" Liu Hun suddenly halted, looking at Long Bing’er, and asked in a deep voice.
"You could say so. But let remind you, those people you offend, no matter who they are, if they want to act, with your current identity and ability, you can’t match them. Joining the Dragon Sect is your best choice, and as I’ve said, you won’t have to participate in too many missions." Long Bing’er also stopped, her beautiful eyes carrying a hint of coldness as she spoke to Liu Hun.
Facing Long Bing’er’s words, Liu Hun’s already pale face beca even paler.
He knew these things well, which is why he’s been working hard all this ti.
But what Long Bing’er said was sothing he couldn’t help but consider. If he truly didn’t agree with Long Bing’er, his identity might be exposed in advance.
Once his identity was exposed, he’d face more enemies, and it wouldn’t just be him; all his family in this life could suffer.
This outco was sothing Liu Hun was unwilling to see, but even if Long Bing’er said he wouldn’t need to participate much, he knew very well that any mission participation would be far from simple.
"You don’t need to answer so urgently. After all, I’ve waited for so long; a little more ti doesn’t make a difference." Long Bing’er looked at Liu Hun’s struggling eyes and said calmly.
As Long Bing’er’s graceful figure slowly descended, Liu Hun squinted slightly, and at that mont, no one knew what he was thinking.
