Lin Qiao kicked Wu Chengyue away, then made a roll on the ground before springing up and leaping off the roof. By that time, she had realized that Wu Chengyue didn't intend to hurt her. Otherwise, he would have killed her with a few lightning strikes.
She was aware that he was still restraining his energy. If he really lost control of himself completely, lightning bolts would fall from all over the sky, like what happened when Mo Yan went crazy.
Missing his target once again, Wu Chengyue's face turned colder and colder, his eyes showing a ferocious look. He suddenly turned around and fixed his eyes on Lin Qiao.
The moment Lin Qiao left the safe zone, he flashed across the air and disappeared, showing up before her in the next moment.
Lin Qiao was rushing forward, but Wu Chengyue showed up right in front of her all of a sudden. She wanted to stop, but it was already too late. Automatically, she turned her foot and moved sideways to try and dodge.
In the meanwhile, she said to herself—'It's too late for this. I have to enter the space!'
Wu Chengyue raised both arms to hold her, yet touched nothing but air. She had disappeared within a blink.
He was stunned for a second, then immediately turned and looked around. Her vibe was gone, and that nice aroma faded gradually as if its owner had vanished from the world.
Realizing that his target was gone, Wu Chengyue changed his expression. At that very moment, his energy exploded.
Following the muffled, rumbling thunder, a series of lightning bolts fell from the sky and landed near Wu Chengyue. Within the area one-hundred meter in radius surrounding him, everything was shattered into smithereens.
Wu Chengyue's handsome face was now filled with madness. The blustering radiated from his body and climbed higher and higher, echoing with the natural thunder.
The thunder grew louder and louder, and the clouds came lower and lower. The pressure coming from the clouds turned greater and greater, making people feel suffocated. The rain got heavier and heavier as it landed on the ground and raised clouds of dust.
Soon, Wu Chengyue became the center of a thunder zone, the lightning energy sweeping across the whole area.
He stood straight motionlessly. His eyes were no longer cold, but occupied by madness.
At that moment, Lin Qiao, who was hiding in her space, had no idea that Wu Chengyue had gone mad because of her disappearance. As she suddenly showed up in the space, Lu Tianyi looked at her with surprise, because she seemed to be in haste.
"What's wrong? Were you chased by a dog?" Lu Tianyi ran up to her and asked curiously.
Lin Qiao automatically narrowed her eyes to look outside her space, but only saw a thick, white fog. She opened her eyes and glanced at Lu Tianyi, "Yeah, sort of. It was a strong dog!"
Wu Chengyue was really like a crazy dog at the moment.
"Where's your dog? He's a level-six zombie dog. He's strong too. Why don't you send him out to fight that dog?" Lu Tianyi said with laughter.
He thought Lin Qiao meant what she said, and figured that she was probably attacked by a mutated dog, or some other mutated beast.
Lin Qiao gave him a glare and said, "Bowwow can't win against him."
Wu Chengyue was a level-eight lightning power possessor, and had gone crazy. Bowwow was a level-six mutated zombie beast. Wu Chengyue would beat the dog so hard.
Lin Qiao had no spare attention to continue the conversation with Lu Tianyi. Wu Chengyue was crazy, so who would be able to knock him out? No one could even approach him, not to mention knock him out!
Thinking about that problem, Lin Qiao furrowed her brows into a frown. She drew him out of the safe zone just now, but she couldn't tell if he would go back to the base. Thinking that he might bring the natural lightning into her base, Lin Qiao suffered a headache.
Normally, superpowered people would stay where they were when they lost control of themselves, unless they had targets. Without a target, they would stay where they were for a very long time.
Noticing the frowning, serious look on Lin Qiao's face, Lu Tianyi looked at her confusedly. He thought for a moment, then figured out something. "No way!" He said, "Is that dog so strong that not even you can defeat it? Do you even need to hide here?"
Lin Qiao gave him a glance but stayed silent. That glance made him understand what she meant. Clearly, he had guessed right.
He didn't know that Lin Qiao had lost her superpower and grown weaker than before by at least fifty percent.
"I'm still worried about him. I have to go." While speaking, Lin Qiao flashed out of her space.
Her eyes were dazzled for a second, then she found herself in a strange place, as she had expected. Thankfully, she was still in the city and not in the suburban area.
She hurriedly checked the surrounding road signs. A short while later, she learned that she was still in Hangzhou. She had jumped into Lower City District from Upper City District.
She waved a hand and let out a car, then immediately sat into the driver's seat and drove back toward the base.
The moment she came out of her space, Wu Chengyue, who was standing still where he was, rolled his eyes and turned to Lower City District, seeming to have discover something. The ferocious look in his eyes faded a little, being replaced by uncertainty.
A short while later, he turned around and slowly moved toward Lower City District. It seemed that he wasn't sure if his target was there, but his instincts told him that she was. Something was attracting him toward that area.
Lin Qiao had no idea that she had caught the attention of Wu Chengyue once she came out of her space, even though he was about thirty miles away from her. She never thought that he would be able to sense her through such a long distance.
As Lin Qiao's vibe disappeared, the people in the base looked at each other with confusion.
Wu Chengyue's agitated vibe hadn't disappeared after all.
"Perhaps… Chief doesn't know what to do either," said Yun Meng, "After all, Chief Wu is at the peak of level-eight, and has lightning power. He's really powerful!"
That was, in fact, what everyone thought.
Yuan Tianxing heard about what happened and went to the gate area hurriedly. He sensed Wu Chengyue's vibe and gazed into that area, but didn't say anything.
If not even Lin Qiao could solve that problem, none of the others could. With their current powers, they couldn't even approach Wu Chengyue at the moment.
"If even Chief can't deal with him, we can only stay here and watch," said Duan Juan helplessly.
At that moment, Wu Chengyue suddenly started moving toward Lower City District.
