Late at night, inside the warehouse.
Just a few minutes, just a few quick words.
Lu Yuan and the others went from being stunned, to being astonished, and then to being ecstatic at having recovered what they had lost.
Their eyes were red, and they squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, or leaned their heads against the wall, crying and laughing.
On the way to this planet, anyone who falls ill will be sent to an isolation room.
If they are cured well, they will be released again. If they are not cured, they will be sent directly to the cold storage by the medical staff in the isolation room and will be incinerated after they return to the main star field.
It was obvious that Lu Yuan and his parents were among those who would never return.
However, at this moment, Huo Lingqi told them that their parents were not dead.
Huo Lingqi's father and good friend Xiao Ya had anticipated this and had arranged people in those exile cabins early on.
Of course, they have not been able to completely control the Nebula Society, so all they can do is to minimize the damage - for example, they can only rescue those elders who are regarded as thorns in the eyes of the Nebula Society in a risky way. As for the dependents of the Nebula Society who they are not afraid of and do not care about, such as Xu Yin, Lu Yuan and others, they were still sent here.
According to the original plan of Huo's father and Xiao Ya, Xu Yin, Lu Yuan and others were originally required to live on the exile planet until the former completely eliminated the Nebula Society. Of course, during this period of time, they actually arranged people on this planet to secretly protect their safety.
—When Lu Yuan and his group had a conflict with Yue Ming before, those who were protecting them secretly almost took action.
Fortunately, Huo Lingqi solved all the problems directly, so he was able to have some free time to stay on this exiled planet.
In this way, many things can be accelerated, and Xu Yin, Lu Yuan and others can learn the truth at a faster speed.
"I have confirmed everything. Your parents are now arranged in the same place. If you want to communicate secretly, you can find Xiaojiu and ask him to help you arrange it."
Lu Yuan and the others were so excited that they were speechless. They were all in their twenties, but they were still wiping their eyes, nodding their heads desperately, and gasping for breath from crying.
Huo Lingqi looked at Xu Yin again.
From beginning to end, Xu Yin was the calmest one.
After all, Xu Yin is an outsider, different from Lu Yuan and the others. But every time he sees Xu's mother in the dormitory, who doesn't know whether she has fallen into a crazy world or is from her past dreams, he feels complicated.
Fortunately, General Xu did not die.
If she could meet General Xu, then perhaps Mother Xu would wake up one day.
Huo Lingqi looked at him for a while, then walked over and whispered, "General Xu's situation is rather special. He was injured on the battlefield, and then he was detained by the Nebula Society for a month without receiving treatment, so his injuries were delayed to a very serious extent."
"After my father and his men rescued him, they have already started treating him, but conservatively speaking," Huo Lingqi paused and said, "he may need to sleep in the hibernation chamber for ten years."
Huo Lingqi hesitantly watched Xu Yin's reaction, but after Xu Yin heard it, he just said in a gentle voice: "It's enough that the person is still here, isn't it?"
Huo Lingqi was silent for a moment, then said, "Your mother..."
"You've tried your best." Xu Yin interrupted, speaking gently.
No matter how capable a person is, he cannot predict everything. Many problems can only be solved step by step.
Given the situation at the time, the plan chosen by Mr. Huo and his team required them to spend a lot of effort, and it was a relatively cautious approach that would not easily attract the attention of the Nebula Society.
Ultimately, it was Xingyun who caused Xu's mother to become like this.
Xu Yin leaned over and whispered, "Everything will get better and better. Thank you, General Huo."
This is exactly what Huo Lingqi said to him last night.
Huo Lingqi's eyes darkened slightly.
He nodded solemnly, as if to promise again.
Then he said, "Your mother also needs treatment as soon as possible, so I'll have someone pick her up tonight and send her over to meet you, okay?"
Of course there was no problem with Xu Yin—it would be great for Xu's mother to be able to reunite with General Xu as soon as possible.
Looking at the young man's gentle and quiet appearance, Huo Lingqi couldn't help but raise his hand and rub the young man's head.
When he realized that this action was a bit intimate, he froze and stood there, while the young man raised his eyes and looked at him with a smile on his face.
There was a gentle emotion in his eyes that could be felt without him having to express it out loud.
Huo Lingqi's Adam's apple rolled.
At this moment, he seemed to have noticed something, and the hand behind the young man's head involuntarily exerted a little force.
After learning that their parents were still alive, Lu Yuan and his family felt as if they had lived their lives again.
After they finished crying, they started yelling and it was at this time that Ming Yi came to them.
He saw that the warehouse door was closed and heard ghosts crying and wolves howling from inside, and was completely confused.
After hesitating for a moment, he went forward and knocked on the door. It was only after a long while that the door was opened.
It was Lu Yuan who came to open the door.
Lu Yuan's eyes were still red. When he saw Ming Yi, he was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "Hey, what are you doing here so late?"
Ming Yi didn't expect that it would be Lu Yuan who opened the door. He frowned and said, "I'm here to look for Xu Yin. Where is he?"
Lu Yuan glanced behind Ming Yi and laughed, "Wow, you haven't brought Xue Yuanqing with you yet. Why, do you want to seduce Xu Yin behind your boyfriend's back for the sake of spiritual power?"
Ming Yi: “????”
He was already feeling guilty, and now that his purpose was exposed, Ming Yi was immediately shocked and angry, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"I said that? What can't you say tomorrow?" Lu Yuan looked him up and down. "Your hair has been sprayed with hairspray, right? And you even opened two buttons of your shirt so artificially. Are you a bitch?"
Ming Yi: “?!!!”
Ming Yi dressed up specially before going out, but he didn't expect Lu Yuan to say that. His face flushed and he gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want to talk to you, the son of a prisoner. Call Xu Yin out!"
Lu Yuan's face suddenly turned cold.
He smiled and said, "Want to see Xu Yin?"
Ming Yi stared at him without saying anything.
The next second he was pulled into the warehouse!
The door was slammed shut behind him, and Ming Yi staggered two steps in confusion and fell to the ground!
He couldn't believe it and wanted to curse angrily, but when he looked up, he saw that besides Lu Yuan, there were also Yan Shu and a few others in the warehouse.
Yan Lu and the others had just stopped crying and were still a little excited, but they didn't expect Ming Yi to suddenly appear.
After being surprised, their faces turned cold.
It should be noted that Yi still had some idea. He remembered that his father was responsible for exiling these people here, so he immediately felt something was wrong.
He swallowed and looked again, and saw Xu Yin and... Huo Lingqi in the other corner?
The two men stood face to face, Huo Lingqi blocked most of Xu Yin's body, and no one knew what he was doing.
Ming Yi subconsciously called out: "Xu Yin!"
Hearing the voice, Xu Yin and Huo Lingqi turned their heads.
Xu Yin raised his eyebrows, and Huo Lingqi's face turned cold, and immediately a chill came out of him.
Lu Yuan gave Yan Shu and the others a look, and several people gathered around Ming Yi.
Lu Yuantou shouted without replying, “General Huo, don’t worry about us, we are just settling some private matters.”
Yan Lu and his men were usually gentle in character, but that didn't mean they were saints and could remain calm even when seeing their enemies - they knew during the day that Ming Yi and Xue Yuanqing were coming, and for that reason they had been hiding in the warehouse, not because they were afraid of these two people, but because they were afraid that they would not be able to resist rushing up and beating them up.
But now, Ming Yi has come to my door himself, there is no reason not to beat him up.
What's more, now that they knew their parents were still alive, after experiencing great joy and sorrow, they felt particularly relieved.
Unfortunately, there was nothing on the exile planet, and they couldn't even have a barbecue to celebrate. Now that Ming Yi had brought it to their doorstep, they could finally celebrate.
So these people looked at each other and confirmed each other's thoughts. Their eyes lit up and they became slightly excited.
Ming Yi's scalp went numb when he saw the expressions of these people. He finally realized that a disaster was about to happen. But he came here to deceive Xu Yin, not to die a thousand miles away!
Ming Yi warned: "You, you better think carefully, you are the criminals—"
"So?" Lu Yuan twisted his wrist, making a "click" sound.
"…" Ming Yi, "If you dare to do anything to me—"
Yan Lu: "What about you?"
He also moved his ankles, and the joints made a "clicking" sound.
Ming Yi went crazy. He yelled, "I'll just make a phone call back to the main star region—Puff—Ahhhhhhhhhh!"
All the sounds after that were covered up by punches and kicks!
This side is in full swing, the other side...
Huo Lingqi moved the fingers on the back of Xu Yin's head again, and the two of them still maintained the same posture as before.
He stared at Xu Yin with burning eyes: "He wants to seduce you."
This sentence is a test that couldn't be more straightforward.
Xu Yin smiled.
Not wanting to tease the old man anymore, Xu Yin stretched out his hand and said gently, "Is there any man in this world who can compare to you, General?"
The two hands gently stroked Huo Lingqi's shoulders, reached behind his neck and hooked it.
Huo Lingqi's eyes darkened instantly.
Everything that he had just guessed in his mind was confirmed by the young man's words and actions. Huo Lingqi felt his throat a little dry and his heart beat faster.
Feeling the man's body tensing up little by little, Xu Yin narrowed her eyes and smiled, moving closer.
Leaning close to the man's ear, he whispered, "General Huo, I'm already eighteen years old. Do you think I should put love aside for a while?"
The next second, Xu Yin was hugged and pressed against the wall.
Amidst the punches, kicks and terrible wailing, the man turned his face and kissed Xu Yin hard on the lips.
The beating of a man, the beating of a loved one, was a joyful night for everyone but Ming.
At the starship, Xue Yuanqing waited anxiously for a long time, and finally waited for Ming Yi to come back. As a result, he saw a bruised and unrecognizable face, and immediately screamed.
Ming Yi's mentality also completely collapsed. He staggered over, grabbed Xue Yuanqing by the collar and pressed him to the ground, shouting with a heavy nasal voice: "You made me go over! It's all your fault! It's all your fault!"
Xue Yuanqing was frightened and screamed. The soldiers rushed out after hearing the noise, but by then, Xue Yuanqing's face had been scratched by Ming Yi, and it was a horrible sight.
The soldiers were also dumbfounded!
… From the next day, Ming Yi never came down from the starship.
However, Ming Yi shut himself in, but Xue Yuanqing couldn't.
The main star region cannot be contacted for the time being. Even though there are bloodstains on his face and he will receive a lot of surprised and gossipy looks wherever he passes, he has to bite the bullet, grit his teeth, and carry on.
In fact, Xue Yuanqing was also very angry.
He didn't expect that Lu Yuan and his gang would beat up Ming Yi so unscrupulously, and he didn't expect that Ming Yi... would come back and get angry at him even though he was clearly incompetent!
Xue Yuanqing's face was only considered pretty to begin with, but after being scratched by Ming Yi, it became completely unsightly!
He walked along, dodging everyone and accidentally saw Xu Yin. When he saw her pretty face, Xue Yuanqing felt jealous, which was rare for him.
In the past, he never took Xu Yin seriously.
So what if you are good-looking? Aren’t you still a fool who can’t do anything
No matter how powerful your father is, he will still be eliminated one day, right
However, at this moment, although Xu Yin was a prisoner, she was calm and composed, and her temperament was even more attractive than before.
Huo Lingqi, like a guardian, stayed by his side all the time... It was said that when Ming Yi was beaten yesterday, the two of them were actually kissing in the corner...
To be honest, if his father didn't want to join forces with the Ming family, how could Xue Yuanqing look down on Ming Yi
Everyone knows that as a man, Huo Lingqi is much more attractive!
But Huo Lingqi is not the same kind of person as them at all.
Moreover, after Huo Lingqi escaped from the battlefield and stationed here directly, Xue Yuanqing even felt uneasy that everything was developing in a bad direction...
Due to a combination of various factors, Xue Yuanqing now feels irritated whenever he sees Xu Yin and Huo Lingqi.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t contact the main star region, and they were at a loss on how to break through their mental strength—Xu Yin simply ignored them!
Huo Lingqi has already sent his people out to search the surrounding star fields to see if there are more undiscovered space tunnels.
Xue Yuanqing was under too much pressure. After he returned to the starship that day, he thought about it and sent an encrypted communication.
The other end was quickly connected, and Xue Yuanqing asked, "Have all your clansmen evacuated from those tunnel entrances?"
The person on the other end spoke word by word, very strangely and stiffly: "There are many undisciplined groups in our tribe. I can't control all of them. But if you really meet those people, it doesn't matter. You can kill them if you want. It's all their own fault."
Xue Yuanqing felt so exhausted. He nodded and was about to say a few words to end the call when he suddenly heard someone on the other end ask, "Has a very special human appeared over there?"
Xue Yuanqing immediately asked: "How do you know? You still keep your people here? How dare you be so bold!"
—And the evolved beast is so big, where can it hide
Xue Yuanqing had doubts in his heart, but the person on the other end of the line laughed strangely twice, and did not answer him, only asking: "Is that person very close to Huo Lingqi? Huo Lingqi and his deputy are difficult to deal with, is that person easy to deal with?"
Xue Yuanqing was displeased by the other party's avoidance of the topic, but was quickly attracted by the other party's second half of the sentence: "Why, do you want Xu Yin?"
"It's very interesting. I want to study it. If we can really deal with him, then we will be able to deal with Huo Lingqi soon - hehe, thanks to Huo Lingqi for personally handing his weakness to us."
Xue Yuan frowned slightly: "What method do you want to use?"
"That's none of your business," the other end said. "If you can handle it, take him to a place ten light years away from the exiled planet in three days."
Xue Yuanqing knew what the other party meant by "that place". It was a low-level planet with a low level of development, and the planetary officer was his father's man.
"Why do you still have people in so many places?" Xue Yuanqing said angrily without thinking too much, "Although the planetary officer of that planet is one of ours, now that Huo Lingqi is here, we have to be careful in everything."
"Hehe, I know, I know."
Xue Yuanqing wanted to ask more, but he knew that the other end would not answer him, so he moved his lips, said something irritably and hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, his eyes turned slightly.
Xiaojiu and his team went to the nearby star field to start searching, and Xu Yin and his team also joined the operation.
Huo Lingqi was initially opposed to this.
—Until Xu Yin drove the repaired mecha and fought with him, and the fight directly knocked the right hand of his training mecha off.
When his right hand flew out, Huo Lingqi fell into silence.
Then he got off the mecha silently and saw Xiaojiu and the others surrounding Xu Yin, jumping up and down.
"Awesome Xu Yin!"
"I always say that the old-style mechas are the best. The new-style mechas are too weak!"
"Boss, why don't we just replace our entire army with old-style mechas!"
“That’s right!”
Xu Yin smiled gently at Huo Lingqi who was walking over.
Huo Lingqi: “…”
Keep a straight face and compromise.
During this search, they actually found five space tunnels in the nearby star field, one of which was occupied by a group of crazy evolved beasts.
That day, Xu Yin happened to be acting with Xiao Jiu. The two of them led the team to rush over and kill a wave of enemies, directly clearing out the nest of the evolved beasts.
In this small conflict, Xu Yin and Xiao Jiu broke through a layer of potential on their own, and their mental strength surged again.
Xu Yin was very surprised. It seemed that after the mental power broke through the first level through human intervention, the subsequent levels could be broken through by relying on extreme consumption of physical functions.
This would be a lot more convenient.
As for those space tunnels that can almost be considered "dense", it also leads to a guess -
"The evolved beasts are secretly taking over the entire star field for themselves." Xiao Jiu said viciously.
“Although this star field is relatively remote and poorly managed, it would be impossible to successfully build so many space tunnels without internal and external support,” Yan Lu said.
“That means someone took the initiative and gave this star field away.” Lu Yuan sneered.
Seeing Xue Yuanqing walking over from not far away, looking at them from a distance, and then avoiding his gaze in an unnatural way, Xu Yin narrowed his eyes slightly.
If his feeling was correct, Xue Yuanqing's glance was directed at him.
And this kind of look has happened three times in the past two days.
The more you try to hide something, the more obvious it becomes.
His style of doing things is still too immature.
Xu Yin didn't know whether the two elders from the Ming and Xue families really thought that their two children were trustworthy, or whether it was because the things they were secretly planning were too confidential and they didn't dare let anyone else get involved except their family members.
But no matter what, since they have already revealed their true colors, there is no reason for Xu Yin and the others to let them go.
—No matter what Xue Yuanqing planned, Xu Yin intended to follow suit. He was even waiting for Xue Yuanqing to make a move.
Well, but the old man will definitely not agree to him taking risks, so before taking any action, he must first coax the old man into submission.
…
So that night, after returning to the dormitory, Xu Yin pulled the man into the room and closed the door.
—That’s right, ever since sending Xu’s mother away, Huo Lingqi and Xu Yin have moved into this small dormitory room.
He said that this would make it easier for him to take care of his lover.
At this moment, Huo Lingqi was pressed on the bed by his lover.
Huo Lingqi's face was stiff, his ears were red, he was at a loss, and his voice was hoarse: "...Yinyin?"
The young man lowered his head, and the faint scent of jasmine lingered around the two of them.
Xu Yin gently rubbed the tip of the man's nose, curled the corners of her lips, and said softly: "General, there is something I want to discuss with you..."
"What?" Huo Lingqi's Adam's apple rolled slightly.
Xu Yin's voice became even lower: "Let me make it clear first, if you get the reward, you must agree to this."
"?" Huo Lingqi frowned vigilantly, and the next second he felt his belt being unbuckled. With a "click", he froze instantly, with red spreading from his ears to his face and neck, and his whole body was as stiff as a stone.
Xu Yin smiled: "Hmm? Do you agree?"
Huo Lingqi looked dazed: "...What?"
"Okay, I'll take that as your agreement."
Huo Lingqi: “???”
Xu Yin lowered her head and kissed the man's lips: "Get ready to receive your reward."
…
Extreme consumption of physical functions can break through the potential level.
Practice makes perfect.
It turns out that "extreme physical exertion" is not limited to intense sports such as mecha driving and hand-to-hand combat... it can also be other intense sports.
The next day.
As the group waited to set off, Xiao Jiu looked at Huo Lingqi, who had a serious face, and Xu Yin, who was smiling, and felt that something was wrong. He asked sharply, "Why do you look so good?"
"After breaking through the potential layer, your complexion will look better for a while. Wasn't it the same for you yesterday?" Xu Yin said with a smile.
Xiaojiu: “???”
So what does it mean that you and the boss look so good this morning? ?
Before Xiao Jiu could ask more questions, Xue Yuanqing suddenly came over with a team of people. Facing the gazes of many people, he took a deep breath and said, "General Huo, Xingyun will send Ming Yi and me here not only for your matter, but also to investigate the space tunnel. So you see... from today on, our two teams will join you and search with you, okay?"
He said sincerely, "It was our fault to have a conflict a few days ago. I apologize to you, but we can't waste our time here, so I hope you can agree to our joining."
Here it comes.
Huo Lingqi had no expression on his face. After Xu Yin glanced at him lightly… His ears turned red and he said coldly, “Yeah.”
Xiaojiu realized something at the first moment, looked at Huo Lingqi and then at Xu Yin, and raised his eyebrows.
Wow, now it’s time to start catching the tail.
When Xue Yuanqing got Huo Lingqi's answer, his eyes immediately lit up.
He secretly clenched his hands, trying his best to suppress his excitement and the pleasure of revenge, and smiled gently at Xu Yin and the others: "Then please give me your guidance."
Xu Yin smiled and said, "Well, it's a pleasure to work with you."
Xiaojiu crossed his chest and smiled sinisterly: "Yeah, happy, happy."
Xue Yuanqing: “???”
His smile disappeared immediately, his scalp tingled, and he thought carefully...
… Why is it a bit creepy?
