Chapter 213 - Stick with Us

Ruan Jin was found by Old Xiong? Didn't that mean he was in the Rooms Hall? Because Old Xiong would say it earlier if Ruan Jin remained in the Lodging Hall. Why would he be there? Moreover… what was wrong with him?

Liu Xiaodan opened his mouth to talk, but he suddenly saw the acting captain throw something their way. The first clunk it did on the floor reminded Liu Xiaodan of the dreaded explosion that happened. However, at that point, God Raven jumped out and poked a hole in the floor, letting the grenade drop to the next level.

Kaboom! The only thing the explosion did was to push hot air up the hole the black bird made. The King glared at the acting captain and attacked regardless. Even if Mian Qingtao and the rest wanted to stop it, that was one of the Kings of the facility. Only Liu Xiaodan would be able to stop—did it come from inside him?!

Liu Xiaodan only held onto Guangru, calming himself. "God Raven, do you want to eat that one?"

"If you will give me the honor..." God Raven wouldn't pass up a meal, but he said so after poking a hole in the acting captain's back.

"Mr. Seven, Mr. Ten… please come closer… it won't be a good sight." Liu Xiaodan only called out. 

The two didn't really want to get too far, but they still had no choice but to watch as the acting captain lost his limbs and head to the black bird. Those who had crawled away weren't even able to move. More when God Raven actually grabbed the body and tore it into pieces… tossing parts forward towards Liu Xiaodan. Tang Mingming and Old Doctor were quick to grab the scraps.

Ten didn't know if he wanted to stay in Liu Xiaodan's company any longer. He was forced to watch someone be killed by ghosts right in front of them. They could react and fire at the other person, but they already knew what would happen. The bullets just rained down back to them. Moreover, take a look… a King stood before him.

God Raven ate the acting captain very fast. He then jumped right back inside Liu Xiaodan, following the other two. Since Liu Xiaodan didn't mind God Raven slurping on his spare essence, this was the best place to be. No wonder Old Doctor liked staying here. It was just a safe place for Tang Mingming and Yi Junhai; it being a feeding place was just a plus.

"Anyone else who wanted to throw a grenade at me again?" Liu Xiaodan asked the remaining soldiers who had probably pissed their pants at this point. He then turned to Mian Qingtao who carried Li Feng on his back. "Mr. Six, you should take—ah, no… I'll walk you to a used room here. Li Feng might get mad if I leave you guys on your own with the Kings flocking around the facility soon."

"I don't think you should keep him here. It would be safer outside. We have our own protocols..." Mian Qingtao didn't want to stay another minute here even if his sister had been found. Moreover, she was in a state that she might even attack him. If he died, what would happen to his sister in the future?

Guangru nodded. "Baba, that woman wanted to bite Big Brother Feng, didn't she? It's better for them to be separated. Let's—" He was actually going to say something else, but he stopped himself. He just remembered that Nurse Yun wasn't around anymore to take care of those who were being rescued. Remembering what happened made the child angry again.

The father only agreed with the child. He let Guangru draw a cut on him, and from his blood formed the big-torso-ed nurse. He let it lead the way as Mian Qingtao decided to bring Li Feng outside the Treatment Hall. As they left, Ten called the attention of the rest by saying with a snort: "Don't be cowards. Let's look for the exit. I forbid you to take actions on your own. If you don't want to be monster food, stick with us."

…

In the midday gala, Mian Bingbing was seated on one of the seats in the mezzanine. Her feet had grown tired of walking around and dancing. She held her hand with her own and thought of her only son. The Qiao family had a complete hold on him right now, and they had no real way to communicate with Li Feng. She didn't want her son to be broken when he came home.

"Are you worried?" Li Heilong brought a drink for her while he stuck to water which was the only drink he should be taking with his injury. Even if he was supposed to be bedridden right now, he didn't want to help his wife with their announcement. Besides, he was actually happy to see her in such a magnificent dress again.

"Who wouldn't be? Feng'er is on his own without anyone to rely on." Mian Bingbing massaged her forehead. "I can't believe Shanyue would be kicking him into that kind of place without anyone helping him out. She used to like and idolize Feng'er. I guess this happens when a woman starts unloving a man."

"I never thought Ms. Ren and Feng had a real relationship." Li Heilong stuck to his water even if he eyed the punch intently. No, he shouldn't be tempted… or else Wang Yusheng would make his injury worse. That doctor actually hated his patients not doing what he said, and it was a surprise that he hadn't lost his license yet.

His wife then leaned against his arm. "Heilong… why did you let Feng'er jump in such a place? You should've stopped him… or that you should've sent someone who could help him." Mian Bingbing sighed as she avoided pressing her make-up against Li Heilong's suit. "You should've told me that he's going."

The husband didn't say anything. He couldn't possibly tell Mian Bingbing that it was because Li Feng felt so guilty about bothering the man whose life was ruined along with his very own—or that Li Feng was scared for his father. They were dealing with a demon that even Mian Tianni didn't want to engage with. It was bound to be very dangerous, and there was no way Mian Bingbing would approve of their plans.

The phone rang again, and Li Heilong decided to excuse himself from her again. This time, Li Heilong was annoyed because he was enjoying the warmth of his wife. However, it might be very important. He spoke to the phone: "Is this important?"

"Oh, very." Jiu Yuanli chuckled from the other side. "The facility just went code black. The maze formation in the Treatment Hall just broke, and the King-rank ghosts would be slithering around. I just hope that these things I got from Secretary Kang would hold. Else, I would have to say goodbye to you and Bingbing."
