Chapter 223

After Hao Ren left, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others moved some 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 someone knocked on the door.

It was the person Hao Ren mentioned, 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 seemed that quite a few bases had come to attend this meeting.

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 somewhat 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 meal.

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 temperament 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.

"Meet an untimely 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.

He frowned, though somewhat displeased, he didn't erupt.

Peng Shaowei's arrival slightly livened up the atmosphere.

The meal 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 meet their end!

The most impulsive among them, Xiao Feng, immediately launched a fireball towards Sun Jian.

Sun Jian's eyes widened in shock and quickly dodged.

But the fireball was extremely 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 mean 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 same time, 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 abdomen.

"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.
