Lu Xi'an opened his mouth, but didn't say anything.

This woman, risking everything for him, left him at a loss for words.

And after Yao Wei obtained the Fungus Stone, she quickly felt a warm current flow in, and her physical condition began to gradually recover.

She was slightly surprised, looking at it in her hand, but just kept looking.

Lu Xi'an's gaze remained fixed downward; in the heavy rain, only Luo Ping was standing there swaying. Chang had already entered the room, with no intention of coming out for a while.

Lu Xi'an's mind raced, and he already had another idea.

"Friends inside, want to come up for a spar? I'm here waiting, always welcome."

He shouted aloud, his voice falling with the rain, loud enough to pass through the gate below, "If you can't do it alone in such a short time, bring your woman along, you can come up together."

He was very sure that Chang would absolutely not bring Yang Guan up to attack, hence he said so.

Although he hadn't killed that woman Yang Guan just now, he at least faced off against those two Neo-Humans.

The strength of the Type A and Type C Neo-Humans combined was truly beyond imagination. Both he and Yao Wei combined struggled to handle it, but after sparring, those two already knew of him and Yao Wei.

If Chang came up alone and even if Yang Guan used her ability to boost him, they could only surge up and unleash power briefly.

And he and Yao Wei were calmly prepared above, with such a large space to maneuver and retreat, Chang couldn't kill him or Yao Wei.

So if he wanted to kill him and Yao Wei, he could only bring Yang Guan along, letting Yang Guan become an auxiliary ornament.

However, the problem was, from top to bottom there was a distance, and the maneuver space was severely insufficient. If Chang brought Yang Guan up, he would definitely shoot needles once more.

At that time, his needles wouldn't target Chang but would be aimed at Yang Guan.

He would definitely do it in this way, and as long as Chang and Yang Guan had normal intelligence, they could surely foresee it.

—Of course, if that guy and Yang Guan were not of normal intelligence, it would suit his intentions just fine.

If Chang brought Yang Guan up, relying on the walls to change direction with kicks, they would surely take Yang Guan to dodge his flying needles.

But his needle-shooting speed was fast enough that Yang Guan would only be able to use speed bursts and abrupt turns to dodge.

That kind of sudden directional impact wasn't something a Type A Neo-Human could withstand.

This meant that if Chang brought Yang Guan up, even if Yang Guan wasn't killed by flying needles, she would be killed by her own high-speed bursts.

If they couldn't think of this, then it would be easier for him, killing Yang Guan so easily, leaving only Chang alone, which would be much more manageable.

Reaching the top, condescending against the two in the room was indeed a correct choice.

Lu Xi'an thought.

—That way, he wouldn't have to risk Luo Ping's life anymore.

If those two weren't fools, they would be distracted by him and Yao Wei moving forward. Shu's covert actions wouldn't then need Luo Ping to risk his life to attract the attention of Chang and Yang Guan.

To be honest, watching Chang punch Luo Ping's head and make it wobble, like a punching game in an arcade, Lu Xi'an felt some phantom pain himself, always feeling like Luo Ping's brains were about to be shaken out.

If it were him, he probably wouldn't have been able to stand it.

Luo Ping was too willing to go all out, and the strength of the B-type Neo-Humans was beyond Lu Xi'an's imagination.

This guy's resolve to save Chai Xin truly amazed Lu Xi'an.

After speaking, Lu Xi'an silently watched below.

In the pouring rain, no one emerged from the walls on either side; Chang and Yang Guan remained hidden, not giving Lu Xi'an a chance to throw hidden weapons.

However, Yang Guan's voice carried out: "Who are you people?"

Lu Xi'an asked, "What do you think?"

Yang Guan asked, "Reinforcements called by Luo Ping?"

Lu Xi'an deliberately paused slightly, then said, "Let's consider it so."

Yang Guan fell silent for a bit and said, "That doesn't seem to be the case."

Lu Xi'an asked, "Why?"

Yang Guan said, "If you were the reinforcements he brought, you definitely wouldn't admit to any relationship with him now. You're up there; he's still here. Aren't you afraid we'll use him to threaten you?"

"Makes sense."

Lu Xi'an said, then asked again, "But what if I said that on purpose to confuse your judgment?"

In the heavy rain, Luo Ping twitched the corners of his mouth.

Yang Guan seemed disdainful to answer this question and laughed mockingly.

Outside, Luo Ping, and on the base top, both Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei heard it.

It seemed Yang Guan was very confident in her judgment, thus only thought Lu Xi'an was making up excuses.

"How did you find this place? Deep in the mountains and forests, it's not easy to find."

Yang Guan asked in the room below. She seemed intent on communicating with Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei this way, absolutely not coming out easily.

Lu Xi'an said, "Why should I tell you?"

Yang Guan said, "Even if you don't say it, I know. That fool Luo Ping even arranged for some of his ordinary people to be in the county town of Shanyang County, which is also his territory.

"We drove him away, he must have gone to the county town, right? You surely started following him secretly from then, and then discovered this place."

"Heh—"

Lu Xi'an responded with a mocking laughter from above, as if expressing disdain, or perhaps imitating Yang Guan's earlier behavior.

If he had directly said "that's it," or "how did you know" and such, Yang Guan might have had doubts, but he just let out a "heh," making the woman hidden in the base building below certain.

Yang Guan said, "Looks like I guessed it right, you, like us, have long set your sights on Luo Ping's territory.

"This guy often goes out and flaunts, switching cars as he pleases, making us envious for a long time. You're the same, aren't you?"

Lu Xi'an remained silent.

Yang Guan said, "Then I'll take that as yes. From up there, can you see that locked warehouse? I reckon Luo Ping's car is inside. Brother Luo, isn't it?"

"Heh—"

Luo Ping let out a mocking laughter too.

Yang Guan said, "I wanted to open this door a long time ago, but given that this territory is now mine, I can't bring myself to damage the lock of the warehouse.

"Brother Luo, give me the key, and follow us from now on, we won't give you trouble anymore, and we'll let you stay here, how about it?"

Luo Ping said sullenly, "I previously let you stay here, showing goodwill, and now you turn things around like this? How can I trust you now?"

Yang Guan sighed and said, "Actually, we didn't want this either. But your ambitions are too large. If we follow your plans, the things here will be wasted by you sooner or later.

"And we, dignified Neo-Humans, have to sit on equal footing with ordinary people by following your rules? What are you thinking? Isn't this a complete mess?

"To protect the things here, we had no choice but to act."

"Screw you!"

Luo Ping couldn't help but curse again, gritting his teeth.

Yang Guan said, "If you don't want to, fine, we'll deal with you later."

After saying this, he ignored Luo Ping, and continued talking to Lu Xi'an and Yao Wei above, "How about it, you two? This Luo Ping is out of his mind, occupying this place and wasting a good territory. That's why we took it over.

"There's plenty here, and we wouldn't mind having two more Neo-Human companions. You come down, we can all stay here together and enjoy it.

"And as you have seen, I'm a Type C Neo-Human. With me here, life will be very comfortable."

Yao Wei instinctively glanced at Lu Xi'an, as if fearing he might agree. But after the glance, she realized that the Lu Xi'an she knew wouldn't agree, so she relaxed.

Lu Xi'an smiled at Yao Wei and asked, "Really?"

Yang Guan said, "Of course, why don't you come down now, and I'll make sure you enjoy it immediately."

Lu Xi'an said, "How can I trust you? What if we come down, and you immediately join with that guy to attack us?"

He still didn't mention Yang Guan and Chang's names, solidifying Yang Guan's judgment about his relationship with Luo Ping.

Yang Guan said, "How could that be? Our interests don't conflict."

Lu Xi'an said, "How not? Didn't you just attack us? You act so recklessly, you don't seem like good people. To be honest, I'm hesitant to trust you."

Yang Guan: "..."

Chang: "..."

The two people in the building below remained silent after this statement, even Luo Ping couldn't help but look up through the raindrops, wondering how someone could be so shameless. This statement has to be remembered, it can choke people in a verbal fight.

After a brief silence, Yang Guan said, "Friend, you should speak reasonably. Clearly, you attacked first, if Chang hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been killed by you."

Lu Xi'an said, "Those are just irrelevant details, not important. What's important is how you can make us trust you now."

Yang Guan: "..."

Chang: "..."

Watching the two people in the room get choked again by Lu Xi'an's words, Luo Ping looked up once more, silently praising: awesome!

After a moment of silence, Yang Guan said, "Then tell me, how can you trust us?"

Lu Xi'an said, "Come out, show us some sincerity."

Yang Guan said, "If we come out, what if you suddenly attack us again?"

Lu Xi'an said, "Look, you don't trust me, so how can you expect me to trust you?"

Yang Guan: "..."

Chang, unable to hold his anger any longer, said furiously, "Why don't you just come down, let's not let anyone interfere, the two of us can duel, have a fight! Cut the crap!"

Lu Xi'an said, "Look, you even use provocation, you're trying tricks on us."

Yang Guan was silent for a while, and then said softly, "Who is tricking whom really... How did trust between people become so difficult?"
