As Lin Qiao left, Li Zheng and his people finally relaxed. They still couldn't believe what they had just seen, so they began asking questions to the Lin Family people.
"Is she really a zombie? How can that be possible? How can a zombie talk? Besides, she looks as smart as we are! If all zombies became like her in the future, it would be horrible!"
"She's not like normal zombies," said Mrs. Lin, "She doesn't eat human beings, or hurt any."
There were quite some people in Lin Qiao's space at the moment. Qiu Lili had brought in a couple of sets of couches, which were enough for these people to sit down. The only inconvenience was that these couches were a little far away from each other.
"How did she rescue you?" Asked Cheng Wangxue, "And, why were you tied up?"
"We met Yang Jianhua yesterday," said Li Zheng, "He didn't say anything to us and just captured us. Only Lin Yu escaped."
Mrs. Lin widened her eyes with surprise and asked, "How did you encounter him? And, where're the rest of your teammates? Only Lin Yu escaped?"
Li Zheng's face darkened as he nodded at Mrs. Lin, then lowered his eyes and said, "We left our base about a month ago and came here. On our journey to Sea City Base, the others died, and we're the only one who survived. In Sea City Base, we heard that our base was destroyed, and that you managed to escape. That's why we came out with a squad sent out by Chief Purple Thunder of Sea City Base to find you."
"We spent half a mouth out here, searching for you. However, instead of you, we met Yang Jianhua…And this is the result," said Lei Yao.
Lin Wenwen found five cups and poured the five some water. "Is this a friend from Sea City Base?" She pointed at the stranger among the five, then asked.
That man politely nodded and replied, "Good to meet you…My name is Huang Ming!" Then, Huang Ming pointed at the few armed vehicles before the forest that the others hadn't noticed, and asked, "Those…cars, did she bring them in here?"
Mrs. Lin and the others turned to glance at the cars, then turned back and responded carelessly, "Ah, she threw those in earlier. This is her space, so who else can put things in here?"
Outside, Lin Qiao saw Yang Jianhua sitting on a couch with his head lowered; elbows on his knees, and fingers crossed to support his forehead.
"Very good! There're so many of you, yet you let someone sneak in and rescue all of them...You're amazing!"
The others in the living room weren't able to see his face, but hearing his voice, they all sensed a sharp coldness rising in their hearts and bodies.
The air temperature in the room dropped drastically, and everyone on the scene understood that their boss was being mad.
Suddenly, a layer of ice emerged under Yang Jianhua's feet, then quickly reached toward the group of soldiers who were responsible for guarding Li Zheng and his people.
The few panicked soldiers attempted to draw back, but only managed to make half a step before they were frozen from the feet to the heads. Within a blink, they turned into ice statues standing in the room.
Seeing those ice statues, the others didn't dare to move or even breathe. Some of them already had cold sweat oozing out of their skins.
Lin Qiao stood in an empty corner. The nighttime temperature was about ten degrees lower than the daytime temperature, so the night should be pleasantly cool. However, standing in this living room right now, Lin Qiao felt a little cold.
At that moment, Yang Jianhua unclasped his hands and said, "The enemy is powerful, such that even I felt nothing."
He then stood up and slowly walked toward the ice statues.
"But, since you can't even guard the captives well, why would I let you live?"
While speaking, he raised a hand to knock the nearest ice statues. In the next second, a slight cracking noise was heard from the ice statues; and soon, the noises grew louder and louder, quicker and quicker.
Then, following a series of clattering noise, the ice statues shattered and fell into pieces, but no blood splashed out.
Yang Jianhua's face wore no expression, and his eyes were especially cold. He walked to the other ice statues and knocked them one after another. As he turned around, a loud wave of clattering noises was heard.
"I was going to stimulate Lin Feng with those captives so that he and his people will panic and show some weaknesses. However, you've ruined my plan."
The others in the living room gazed at the piles of ice pieces, stunned. None of them dared to make any sound.
Lin Qiao stood behind those people and sensed some of their thoughts.
'So cold-blooded…'
'Why didn't I know that this is Yang Jianhua's true face before?'
'Damn, if you didn't have my families, I'd never come out and hunt Great Captain for you!'
With surprise, Lin Qiao found out that these people weren't following Yang Jianhua willingly. It turned out that Yang Jianhua had threatened these soldiers with their families.
Not only were those ordinary soldiers thinking that way, even the few level-five superpowered ones also had similar thoughts.
'Damn, why was Chief so nice to this b*stard? She was trying to protect him the whole time, yet he's just a scum!'
'You trash! What are we to you? You kill our people when you want to, and you treat us like dogs.'
Lin Qiao looked at Yang Jianhua. She honestly didn't remember anything about him. He had hurt her, but why wasn't she feeling anything when facing him?
According to what Lin Qiao had learned by now, Yang Jianhua had schemed against her years ago because of Lin Wenwen. Later on, he pretended to save her, after which, he stayed around her as her life-saver. While he was pursuing Lin Wenwen, Lin Qiao built a base with her great power. As Lin Qiao's base was established, Yang Jianhua joined hands with a man called Long something to attack her, and then forcibly occupied the base.
He planned to kill two birds with one stone, and reap where he hadn't sown.
Yang Jianhua's handsome face was now showing a cold and vicious look. The pretty face had failed to neutralize his evil vibe. If he had his pinkies up, he would look like a shemale.
'I wasn't captivated by his good look before, was I?' Lin Qiao asked herself silently.
Yang Jianhua walked back. But instead of sitting back into the couch, he walked toward the bedroom that he was in before. His assistant followed in and handed him the telescope.
He took over the telescope and put it before his eyes while saying, "Never mind! They're rescued, but that's fine. Since we can't threaten them with the captives, we can only launch a surprise attack."
After taking a few glances at the hotel, he put down the telescope, then walked out of the bedroom and said to his people, "We'll leave now…Prepare for an attack! We're launching a night raid!"
While speaking, he walked toward the door ahead of the others.
As Yang Jianhua jumped into action, Lin Qiao immediately approached a level-five Captain, then reached out a hand to grab him. In the next instant, the man disappeared.
