CHAPTER 310: CHAPTER 193: EXCHANGING CODED MESSAGES - 194: RESTLESS NIGHT (DOUBLE RELEASE)
"It’s just an A-level," Xiao Moshan replied indifferently, "Sander was A-level too, but he still died, didn’t he?"
"Sander..." The woman paused before speaking, "White Old Master’s attribute is quite hard to counter."
Xiao Moshan’s voice turned cold, "Now that you know our objective, are you scared?"
Qu Jianlei could even feel the murderous intent growing in this guy.
But the woman clearly stated, "Of course I’m scared, but will I back out of what I promised you?"
"We’re warriors, you and I are comrades, I have the heart of a warrior!"
She could have explained more clearly, but she couldn’t because Jian Lei was an outsider present and she couldn’t say much.
Then she spoke up, "Can you tell me about your action plan?"
Xiao Moshan replied in a deep voice, "We just roughly discussed it, now with your addition, the plan definitely needs to change..."
The female warrior Youyou triggered an A-level alert, but she herself was just B-level, it was quite forced to trigger an A-level alert.
Five days later, the alert was lifted—though the search continued, there could be no more citywide searches.
The three hid underground, safely and soundly, much to Youyou’s surprise, these two also brought a lot of water inside.
For the ultimate warrior, a few days without food is not a problem, if truly necessary, they can consume nutrient injections.
But lacking water is troublesome, we can’t last many days.
Jian Lei is likely to know water attribute techniques, but aren’t the people at the base smart?
During such times, places with water element fluctuations are definitely key investigation targets.
The three stayed underground for eight whole days, and only sneaked out at midnight on the third day after the alert was lifted.
After coming out, instead of hurrying to leave, they took the opportunity to visit Jinxiu Road.
Youyou was actually a bit resistant inside, wanting merely to hide for a year or so, and return once the commotion settled.
Xiao Moshan didn’t care, but Qu Jianlei believed that in times like these, the danger of investigation is actually lower.
This thought is not without reason, but claiming it to be absolutely correct is nonsense.
He insisted that the gorge now has tight exterior but a loose interior, with most efforts focused on searching for Youyou.
Youyou even privately murmured to Xiao Moshan, "Isn’t he trying to set us up?"
"Not quite," Xiao Moshan already understood Qu Jianlei well.
"He’s a bit obsessive, but distinct about grudges and affections... he might set you up but absolutely wouldn’t set me up."
The investigation that night really went smoothly, the three explored the surroundings for half an hour.
No one was alarmed, they even noticed fewer patrolling soldiers on the streets.
This proves that Qu Jianlei’s judgment was indeed correct, the gorge is with tight exterior but loose interior.
In other words, the base hasn’t given up searching for Youyou, but... it no longer disrupts the residents.
But what Youyou cared about wasn’t this, rather the precision in the two men’s coordination.
"Two wind attribute warriors covering each other... is it really that incredible? I thought I’d be discovered just now."
"I’m quite ordinary," Xiao Moshan replied candidly, "but Jian Lei is very strong... shall we visit the water factory again?"
Qu Jianlei hadn’t filled the two pits hiding people, predominantly because he didn’t want Youyou to know he had a storage ring.
But Xiao Moshan suddenly had a thought, considering the option to take a backtrack which could save the trouble when entering the city again.
Qu Jianlei, however, decisively replied, "Leave the city!"
"The water factory isn’t safe, truly believe no one would go and check again? If investigated, we’d be entirely exposed."
Despite Xiao Moshan and Youyou both being B-level, they wouldn’t dare contradict him.
Youyou glanced at Xiao Moshan, secretly gestured to her head—doesn’t this guy have a screw loose?
Xiao Moshan glared at her, "Do you think you have the authority to doubt a spiritual attribute warrior?"
Youyou was utterly speechless, though she genuinely queried within... is the spiritual attribute truly that powerful?
Yet regardless of her skepticism, she had to admit, having two wind attribute companions really made passing checkpoints easy.
She didn’t know the ease in passing was mainly because Qu Jianlei employed a blinding technique.
However, her skepticism put to rest two days later: the day after their departure, the hiding spot in the water factory was discovered.

Chapter 194 Night Unrest (Second update celebrated for Master Mo Shi)
Qu Jianlei’s doing things was a bit stubborn, but he wasn’t to the extent of being overbearing.
He merely had this vague sense: there was no danger in visiting Jinxiu Road and... they couldn’t return to the water factory anymore.
To say this was perception brought by the spiritual attribute, he felt this claim he himself might not believe!
Such preposterous reason couldn’t even convince him, how could he bring himself to explain to others?
Therefore, he could only be resolute: I decided to do so, if one disagrees, they can consider parting ways.
But anyone with a passable level of intelligence wouldn’t believe in this "parting ways" nonsense.
During usual times where cooperation fails, peaceful separation is possible, but knowing something this significant... how to separate?
Xiao Moshan wouldn’t leave, while Youyou... truly wouldn’t dare!
After the hiding spot in the water factory was discovered, she silently rejoiced... had she stayed, leaving wouldn’t be possible.
Therefore, after two more days, when Qu Jianlei expressed they could take action, he proposed no objections.
