Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Qiao understood what Wu Chengyue was talking about. Some space possessors who were extra cautious wouldn’t let people know about their space power. After all, some people might covet the things in their spaces after knowing about them. No matter what exactly was kept in their space, it would be seductive to some people.

However, Lin Qiao thought in a completely different way. All she wanted was to get the most out of her space. She wanted to use it as weapon, storage space, or even a farm. In that way, she couldn’t possibly keep hiding it. Therefore, instead of keeping it secret, she decided to exploit as much value out of it as possible. Besides, in her space, she was even able to kill the ones stronger than herself, so what was there to be worried about? Her space was under her full control. If anyone learned about the value of her space and grew some evil intent toward it, she would feel it. She was able to read people’s minds. Of course, she tended to make use of that ability.

Therefore, what Wu Chengyue was worried about didn’t concern her. But of course, she had been staying vigilant all the time. She was now much stronger than before, but still, she wouldn’t bring just anyone into her space. Apart from the ones who had her complete trust, the ones who could be brought into her space were either to be killed or saved by her.

“You’re thinking about this in a unique way. I guess you’re the only one who has the guts to think this way. After all, your space is special. Some people might attempt to control you after learning that your space can even grow food, “Wu Chengyue thought for a moment and said.

Lin Qiao looked at him and said, “What does it matter? I always select the people that I will bring in here, alright? I’m not stupid enough to let just anyone in.”

The people who were given access to her space could be divided into three kinds, the ones to be killed, the ones she fully trusted, and the ones that she tended to make use of. Wu Chengyue thought for a moment, then realized that what he said was a little unnecessary.

“Alright,” Lin Qiao stood up and said, “It’s about the time for you to go out, right?”

Wu Chengyue looked at the time, then nodded and said, “Yeah.” Then, he said to the two kids, “You two stay here. Don’t cause anyone any trouble.”

“Em,” the two kids nodded together.

“We’ve been well-behaved all the time,” Teng said with his head tilted.

“Yeah, yeah, you guys have always been the best. Your uncle will come here soon. We got to go. There’re things that we need to do,” Lin Qiao scooped Teng up and kissed him on the cheek before putting him back on the couch and standing up.

Wu Chengyue stood up as well. He walked to the other side of the tea-table and waited for Lin Qiao to bring him out.

Next, Lin Qiao brought him out of the space, then the two of them went separate ways to do their own works.

Wu Chengyue asked Xiao Licheng to send some people back to the base and inform Xiao Yunlong to speed up the manufacturing of the new weapons. At the same time, Lin Qiao secretly let Xie Dong out of her space and told him to go back to the base to bring her more catmint.

Then, she stayed in Huaxia Base and waited for the day the underground mission started. With the catmint that Lin Wenwen brought back and the weapon that Sea City Base produced, she didn’t worry much about the underground creatures for the time being.

…

In Sea City Base, Lin Wenwen asked Xiao Yunlong to help her find some people. Before long, Meng Yue returned to her with the information she wanted.

“These people run the top hunter group in Sea City Base. Do you know them?” Meng Yue handed the files of those people to Lin Wenwen and said.

Lin Wenwen read the file about the hunter’s group. It was a five-star hunter group in Sea City Base, having about a thousand members. The few people that Lin Wenwen was looking for weren’t playing important roles in Sea City Base, but each of them had built tens of thousands of credits. For other people, that kind number was hard to achieve.

“They aren’t willing to join Sea City Base officially, not to mention the army. I feel that they’re waiting for someone,” said Meng Yue confusedly and uncertainly.

“Waiting for someone? Whom?” Lin Wenwen looked at her questioningly.

Before the apocalypse, when she came back to the future, Dong Xinxin and her people were fully prepared. They were totally able to enter the core team of Sea City Base soon after the base was built up.

While reading the files with curiosity, Lin Wenwen said to Meng Yue, “If I’m right, they should be the first batch to join Sea City Base. They should be living a very good life in this base by now.”

Meng Yue sat down as she smiled and said, “They are living a very good life indeed. But still, they aren’t willing to join our base. This girl, Dong Xinxin, is so mysterious. These three men are the face of this hunter’s group, but in fact, they take Dong Xinxin’s opinion very seriously. They wouldn’t do anything that she disagreed with, no matter how tempting it might be.”

Hearing her mention Dong Xinxin’s name, Lin Wenwen gave a smile.

Meng Yue wore a confused look again as she said, “I didn’t notice this before, but after digging into their backgrounds, I found that everything seemed to be as right as rain for them in the past seven years…”

Almost everyone else who survived the past seven years had been through unimaginable difficulties. Even the people who were powerful and had high-status now struggled before the base was founded.

“Maybe they have some special abilities,” said Lin Wenwen, “One of them might have some kind of secret power to keep them safe. Dong Lijia and Dong Xinxin were the kids of a wealthy family before the apocalypse. Perhaps, their family knows someone with a special power.”

She would, of course, not tell Meng Yue that Dong Xinxin had traveled through time and relived the seven years after the apocalypse. She made up something to divert Meng Yue’s attention.

“That’s possible. Why do you want to find them? Do you need their help?” Meng Yue asked those questions out of pure curiosity. After all, Lin Wenwen must be looking for those people for a reason.

“Yeah, I need their help,” Lin Wenwen nodded and said.

Meng Yue stood up and said, “Alright, since you need to talk to them, I’ll let you get to it.”

“Thank you for finding them for me,” Lin Wenwen walked her out of the door and thanked her with a smile. After that, she and her people instantly headed toward the address that Meng Yue provided.

In a nice neighborhood in District A, Lin Wenwen showed the pass that Meng Yue gave her. Then, she brought Jiang Anan, Qin Yu, and the others straight to where Dong Xinxin Lived.

Dong Xinxin’s place was guarded. The guards politely stopped Lin Wenwen and her people, said, “Hi, may I ask who are you looking for?”

“I’m looking for Dong Xinxin,” Lin Wenwen answered the question with a smile.
