Chapter 43: 041 Rejected Chapter 43: 041 Rejected Fang Yuxin watched Qiu Yiming silently, the concern and worry on his face unmistakably genuine, making it hard for her to remain unaffected. She believed that, at this mont, Qiu Yiming truly liked her, but this affection ultimately couldn’t compete with the allure of fa and fortune. Power was still of utmost importance in Qiu Yiming’s heart.
She could not awaken her superpower while Fang ngyao possessed the Qingmu Spiritual Mansion, so it was no wonder that Qiu Yiming would abandon her in favor of Fang ngyao. She understood Qiu Yiming’s choice, but she didn’t want to be discarded by him again. Aside from Qiu Yiming’s feelings for her, she was more curious about the outco between Qiu Yiming and Fang ngyao if she were to withdraw voluntarily this ti.
Thinking of the heartbreaking pain and despair in the dream, Fang Yuxin felt that if she didn’t retaliate in so way, she would not be doing justice to herself! So she said, “Fang ngyao has a ‘Suppressant.’ I don’t know where she got it, but it inhibits cellular activity. Moreover, I suspect that this ‘Suppressant’ can prevent people from awakening their superpowers. When I was living in the old house, she used it, but I noticed and avoided it. The next day she sold the house, and I have no idea where she went.”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yiming’s heart skipped a beat. He had not expected Fang ngyao to do such a thing, and even less that she would have a thing like ‘Suppressant’! Thinking of Fang Yuxin evading Fang ngyao’s sche, he could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, and his curiosity about Fang ngyao’s secrets grew stronger.
If he could have it…
Fang Yuxin looked at Qiu Yiming’s contemplative expression, the smile on her lips flashing for a fleeting mont. Then, she used her concern for Bai Qianqian as an excuse to end the conversation with Qiu Yiming. Qiu Yiming knew that bringing up Bai Qianqian’s matter again would definitely irritate Fang Yuxin, and given his extre curiosity about Fang ngyao’s secrets, he readily agreed to drop the subject.
Bai Qianqian saw them stand up and rushed back to the room, moving with extre care. His slippers were soft-soled, making no noise as he walked.
When Fang Yuxin and Qiu Yiming ca down to the living room, the conversation between the Fang Family mbers and Fang ngyao had concluded. Fang Jintang sat with a stern face, Fang Yuyang looked unfathomably cool and distant, Qu Qianhe, however, appeared nonchalant, creating an intriguing contrast with Fang ngyao’s gloomy expression.
Both of them watched this scene and simultaneously began to form their own thoughts. Fang Yuxin couldn’t help but think of Fang ngyao’s haughty deanor in the dream, while Qiu Yiming couldn’t stop thinking that Fang ngyao and the Fang Family had obviously had a fallout, presenting him with an opportunity.
He could see Fang ngyao was ambitious and smart but not wise enough, assuming that having an ace up her sleeve would make her invincible without carefully considering her opponent’s strength, indulging in complacency was indeed the height of folly! However, the more foolish she was, the more advantageous it was for him!
In the past, even if he noticed the changes in Fang ngyao, he wouldn’t bother to think too deeply, but ever since the teorite fell, the whole world had undergone drastic changes, with masses of people turning into zombies and superpower users erging one after another. These scenarios, once only found in movies and novels, had now beco reality, so, what then was impossible?
No matter what secrets and cards Fang ngyao held, since he had encountered them, he must investigate thoroughly!
As for Bai Ye, whose whereabouts were unknown, and Bai Qianqian, who should never have been born… it was now the apocalypse, and there were too many ways to make soone disappear without a trace!
Fang ngyao was left speechless by Qu Qianhe and Fang Yuyang’s accusations, and what made her even angrier was that Fang Jintang watched everything happen without lifting a finger, even indifferent to the slander directed at Zhu Wanxia! Fang ngyao was so furious she wanted to kill, and she almost lost control—fortunately, a sliver of reason remained, and she managed to restrain herself.
She hadn’t forgotten that she was now a “Spatial System” superpower user. If she used any other skill, her trump card would be exposed! Compared to the detestable Fang Family mbers, preserving her ace in the hole was clearly more critical.
It was at this mont that Fang Yuxin and Qiu Yiming ca downstairs. Hearing the footsteps, she instinctively looked up, and seeing Qiu Yiming’s handso face and the faint smile on his lips, she suddenly felt a surge of reliance. She loathed this place, she despised these people, but Qiu Yiming was the only person she could rely on now.
The mont this sense of dependency erged, her gaze towards Qiu Yiming beca even more eager.
However, Qiu Yiming seed not to notice Fang ngyao’s displeased expression and earnest gaze. Upon entering the living room with Fang Yuxin, he proposed that, due to the ergence of superpower users, the military intended to organize a superpower user team, and he was currently the captain, hoping Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin would join.
However, the siblings did not agree. Fang Yuxin’s secret could not be revealed to others, and the existence of the Elental Stone could not be exposed. Joining the so-called superpower user team might have so benefits, but the disadvantages were greater. At the mont, the status of the military and governnt was unclear, and even though the Fang Family and Qiu Family had good relations, they did not wish to get involved in the military’s murky waters.
Moreover, once they joined the military’s superpower user team, they would inevitably have to comply with the orders of their superiors, and their actions would surely be restricted. Not to ntion the inconvenience, their situation would beco very dangerous. Fang Yuyang wasn’t too concerned about himself, but Fang Yuxin’s “Wood Elent Superpower” had a healing ability. In fighting zombies, there would undoubtedly be nurous injuries later on, and he did not want his sister’s healing abilities to be exploited.
Qiu Yiming was quite regretful. He cared a lot about Fang Yuxin’s “Wood Elent Superpower.” If she joined, she would beco a mber of his team in the future, and he could use his position to arrange for her to be by his side on missions. As for Fang Yuyang, although he wasn’t too fond of him personally, Fang Yuyang’s awakened Wind Superpower was a powerful Attack Superpower, and his marksmanship was also very good. With Fang Yuyang on his team, their strength could reach a new level, and he would have more say within the military.
But what he didn’t expect was that both siblings rejected his proposition. Qiu Yiming wanted to persuade them further, even listing various benefits, but the siblings remained unmoved. The silent Fang Jintang straightforwardly said, “Yiming, your uncle appreciates your kindness. Uncle can see that you an to take care of our Fang Family. However, as the team captain, you should lead by example. Yu Yang and Xinxin have their own strengths, which I’m well aware of, but if they beca your team mbers, they would only drag you down. Besides, they can’t endure that kind of hardship. Let’s forget about this, you’ve been too considerate.”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yiming’s face showed so reluctance. He was well aware of Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin’s abilities; Fang Jintang’s words were too modest. But Fang Jintang was an elder, and since he had spoken thus, what could he do? He had no choice but to accept it.
However, Fang ngyao was unaware that Fang Jintang’s words were intentionally modest, and she looked at Fang Yuyang and Fang Yuxin with so disdain. Seeing this, Qiu Yiming frowned involuntarily and, not wishing to stay any longer, promptly proposed his leave. As soon as he left, Fang ngyao quickly followed him out.
