Chapter 223
After Hao Ren left, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others moved so essential supplies from the car into the room.
They had to maintain appearances.
Otherwise, if they brought nothing yet had an endless supply of food and goods, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.
The hallway was divided into many small rooms.
Each room contained only a bunk bed and a small cabinet.
Nothing else was provided.
The far right of each floor housed the public restroom and washing area.
Yun Xiaoxiao shared a room with Zheng Yuner.
After tidying up, everyone took a breather when soone knocked on the door.
It was the person Hao Ren ntioned, coming to notify them about dinner.
Thus, everyone descended the stairs and gathered downstairs.
Upon reaching the ground floor, they realized they weren't the only ones notified; there were many unfamiliar faces.
Roughly counting, there were about a hundred and twenty to thirty people.
These were likely from other bases.
It seed that quite a few bases had co to attend this eting.
A large group of people gradually made their way to the dining location.
It wasn't far from their residence, just on the second floor of the base's cafeteria.
Yun Xiaoxiao was sowhat familiar with this place.
The second floor was off-limits to ordinary survivors.
Only those with status and abilities within the base could freely access it.
In her previous life, Lu Chen, due to his outstanding abilities, had significant privileges.
So occasionally, he would bring her here for a better al.
The tables in the cafeteria were arranged in several long rows.
Many chairs were placed on both sides of each row.
"Please feel free to take a seat; the dishes will be served shortly," Hao Ren greeted everyone with a smile.
As Yun Xiaoxiao and her group were about to find a seat nearby, a large man pushed them aside and plopped down in the spot they had intended to occupy.
He then looked at them with a challenging smile.
"Sorry, but I think this seat suits my temperant better."
"Hmm, indeed, it does suit you," Yun Xiaoxiao smiled, her eyes scanning him from head to toe.
"Uncle, you're covered in dark clouds, and disaster is imminent. Just like the fate of this seat, you will..."
She paused, her lips curling into a smile.
"et an untily death."
As soon as the words left her mouth, the stool beneath the large man 'crash' broke into two pieces.
He fell flat on his face.
Seeing his disheveled appearance, Yun Xiaoxiao calmly withdrew her gaze and walked towards the corner seat.
Nie Yizhou chuckled behind her.
This unlucky fellow dared to provoke the little ghost. Didn't he know she had a small heart and always sought revenge?
"What did you say?"
Yun Xiaoxiao stopped and glanced at Nie Yizhou.
Nie Yizhou, who had been gloating, froze and quickly waved his hands.
"Nothing, I didn't say anything. I was just praising how capable you are."
He scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
Yun Xiaoxiao stared at him, making him feel uneasy.
Why did he always feel that the little ghost could read minds? Every ti he thought of sothing, she seed to catch it.
This wasn't the first ti...
It was really strange...
After everyone was seated, the dishes were quickly served.
The al was decent, at least there was at.
In the apocalypse, providing at for so many people simultaneously was quite generous for the Western Base.
However, during the al, a dark gaze occasionally glanced towards Yun Xiaoxiao's direction.
Yun Xiaoxiao treated the person as air.
The angrier the other person beca, the more delicious her al tasted.
It was like a unique side dish.
She even smiled at the large man.
This made the large man even angrier.
He slamd his chopsticks down with a 'thud,' making the table shake.
Just as he was about to stand up, a man next to him stopped him.
After whispering sothing, the large man snorted and sat back down.
"Hello everyone, I was busy with sothing earlier and arrived a bit late. Please forgive any oversights," a middle-aged man in a military coat strode up the stairs.
He had a straight posture and a serious expression, clearly a man of few words.
He apologized and greeted everyone.
This man was the leader of the Western Base, Peng Shaowei.
"Why did you gather us here? What exactly do you want to discuss?"
Sun Jian, the large man sitting at the front, asked loudly.
"Brother, please don't be impatient. Two more bases haven't arrived yet, so tonight everyone should eat, drink, and rest well.
The eting will officially begin tomorrow afternoon."
"What's the point of beating around the bush? I..."
Sun Jian wanted to say more, but the man next to him pressed his hand down again.
He frowned, though sowhat displeased, he didn't erupt.
Peng Shaowei's arrival slightly livened up the atmosphere.
The al was, overall, a pleasant experience.
Most people had arrived today and were tired from the long journey.
After dinner, everyone bid farewell and returned to rest.
However, as soon as Yun Xiaoxiao and her group descended the stairs, a cold snort sounded behind them.
They turned around to see Sun Jian glaring coldly at them.
He then quickly walked past them, spitting on the ground.
Yun Xiaoxiao and her companions' expressions changed.
Before they could even seek revenge, the other party was already rushing to et their end!
The most impulsive among them, Xiao Feng, imdiately launched a fireball towards Sun Jian.
Sun Jian's eyes widened in shock and quickly dodged.
But the fireball was extrely fast, and just as he was about to be hit, an invisible force suddenly deflected the fireball.
The fireball grazed past Sun Jian and landed on the ground.
A large patch of grass instantly turned to ashes.
Yun Xiaoxiao and her group narrowed their eyes, looking at the man beside Sun Jian.
This man's strength was quite impressive.
However, this didn't an Yun Xiaoxiao and her group would let this go.
Sorry, none of them were the type to swallow their pride!
Yun Xiaoxiao instantly vanished from her spot.
Seeing her move, Lu Chen and the others lowered their hands.
Forget it, let her handle it alone.
It wouldn't be good to make the opponent lose too badly.
After all...
They were so 'kind.'
Sun Jian and the man beside him frowned as Yun Xiaoxiao disappeared.
"Don't look, I'm here."
Yun Xiaoxiao's voice sounded from behind them.
At the sa ti, she kicked towards Sun Jian.
Despite the significant size difference, her small leg packed terrifying power, sending the over 200-pound Sun Jian crashing to the ground.
Then she stepped on his face.
In her hand, she held a large cleaver, aiming at Sun Jian's abdon.
"Don't move, or else I might get scared, and this knife could end up inside you."
Her lips curled into a mischievous smile, exuding an aura of wickedness.
