Chapter 144 Conflict
Yu Yao looked at Chi Heng.
He asked, "Do you want me to go?"
"do not wish."
Yu Yao really wasn't very interested in saving people.
But she... she won't do anything without a reason!
"But I want to go!"
"......it is good."
After responding, Chi Heng asked, "Why?"
Yu Yao replied naturally, "Because flint is a good thing!"
In his previous life, the original owner had also heard of the existence of flint.
Not only in northern Shanxi, but also in almost all volcanic clusters in China, flint and fire beasts have been discovered.
I've heard that although the fire beast is ferocious and brave, its meat is tender and can accelerate the absorption of supernatural abilities!
When flint does not absorb heat, it can be used for heating.
After absorption, it allows the superhuman to be immune to the cold for six hours, enabling them to cope with extreme cold with ease.
The extreme cold will last for more than half a year, and flint will indeed be of great use!
Perhaps there are other things, but the original owner didn't know much about them!
In short, there's no harm in going out for a walk.
Chi Heng frowned slightly.
"We could have gone by ourselves."
Yu Yao chuckled softly.
"Boss, isn't Old Lei a very important person to you guys?"
Since we're going to go anyway, why be so forceful in refusing to give Elder Lei face?
"Besides, it's good to collect some crystal cores during treatment."
Free treatment and being treated like a beast of burden are two completely different things from exchanging abilities for crystal cores.
Now that Yu Yao has made up her mind, Chi Heng will definitely not try to stop her.
"Are you going to reveal your healing abilities?"
"Ah."
We can't let Chi Heng keep taking the blame for her.
Moreover, she is about to break through level 40. While most superhumans are still at level one or two, she is already equivalent to a pseudo-level four superhuman.
He is a whole rank higher than Chi Heng.
With the addition of chaotic spiritual power, magical artifacts, and attack skills, there's no problem with self-defense.
She can even be a little smug and do what she wants without any hesitation.
Some abilities cannot be hidden forever.
A cheat code is better left unused than not used at all!
Chi Heng understood what she meant and nodded.
"Okay, I will get back to Mr. Lei as soon as possible."
"Ah."
......
The pre-departure meeting was attended by Chi Heng alone, along with Qi Xian, who was already at the Kyoto base.
Some people were inevitably dissatisfied that they didn't see Yu Yao.
Not far away, behind a plump yet dignified old man, followed a petite, exquisite, and beautiful young woman.
Isn't this the twilight of life?
She looked at Chi Heng and chuckled softly, a unique emotion flickering in her almond-shaped eyes.
"Brother Aheng, where are the girls in your team? They seem a bit pretentious~"
Her voice wasn't very loud, but everyone present heard it clearly.
Many people reacted with expressions of amusement, schadenfreude, or dissatisfaction.
Only Old Lei frowned and glared at Sang Yu.
Yu Yao was someone he had begged for; if this little girl ruined it, he would be furious!
Chi Heng frowned in annoyance. "Have all the people you were supposed to go with arrived?"
Sang Yu smiled sweetly, her tone playful.
"Of course not! How could there be so many people?"
"So what are you yelling for?"
Chi Heng looked at Sang Yu, his sharp eyes devoid of any warmth, all his emotions buried beneath a glacier.
But anyone could see it.
He is angry.
Sang Yu's grandfather, Sang Wu, was shocked to hear that his beloved granddaughter had been so bluntly criticized by Chi Heng.
Unable to contain her anger, she spoke in a booming voice: "Chi family brat, what kind of attitude is this? What did Nannan say wrong? We came to discuss the itinerary, and they didn't even show their faces. Their attitude alone is extremely problematic!"
Chi Heng looked at the man who had tried to crush him with his power more than once.
The old man, who had secretly taken away his mother's belongings, couldn't muster even the slightest bit of a pleasant expression.
"What kind of attitude is considered a good attitude? You all know that only one or two representatives are needed for this meeting, so why do you expect all of us to be present?"
We came here to retrieve flint from northern Shanxi, not to put on a show of respect to satisfy your formalities.
If you're not satisfied with our attitude, I don't mind leaving! Anyway, you'll just be a burden on us in northern Shanxi!
Chi Heng's tone grew colder as he spoke.
Today, he's going to rely on his strength and put on the appropriate posture!
Otherwise, some people will easily take advantage of your kindness!
Even before the end of the world, he would not grovel before them.
Moreover, we are now in the apocalypse, where strength reigns supreme.
Why should we have to put up with certain people taking advantage of their age and power to oppress us?
Furthermore... we haven't bothered the Sang family yet because we haven't had time to deal with them. Do they think we've let them off the hook?
......
Actually, there weren't many people present, but most of them were prominent figures in the military and political circles.
Each person has eight hundred schemes.
Originally, they all wanted to use the Sang family to give the Lingxi team a little warning and make them behave.
I never expected to kick a hornet's nest; they turned on me so easily.
Old Lei closed his aged, cloudy eyes weakly and sighed inwardly, "Serves him right."
I've said it before: the people in this team are all the type who respond better to gentle persuasion than force, so don't try to suppress them.
But some people just don't believe in superstition and insist on trying to figure it out.
You've offended them so much that they've embarrassed you without any hesitation.
"Alright, Ah Heng, don't let these things interfere with important matters."
His tone wasn't particularly harsh.
However, Chi Heng politely fell silent and stopped confronting Sang Wu.
This was also his way of making it clear to others that Lei Lao was the only one present whose face was worth his consideration.
Upon seeing this, Sang Wu's drooping eyelids twitched uncontrollably a few times, his expression unusually cold.
