Chapter 453 - Conflict
Huo Ling frowned when he heard of this possibility. "That\'s true. The ability users must have consumed more energy than the other ordinary people, and it made them awaken an ability." He said.
Because angels, especially archangels, can use the world energy, they are very sensitive to it. They can see the place it is abundant and draw it from there to use the energy. They can also see the direction where it is flowing to, becoming their guide in using it. But, for them grim reapers, they can only feel it, and see the direction it is going to, but can\'t use it or change the direction it is going to.
Thus, they are in a blind chase right now. They have to know how the world energy disappeared, only to become the nucleus crystals in the zombies\' heads. This task is actually suited for the angels. But, the risks in this world can only be bore by the grim reapers. Thus, the angels and grim reapers should work together. But… hehe. There is animosity between their two groups, so how can they work each other? Just the sight of each other makes their teeth itch in anger.
They can feel that there is more world energy in the ability users\' body than the ordinary people. But, as to where the rest of the world energy went to…
"But, why is it them?" he asked as he turned to Yi Bing. "Was there really a requirement to become an ability user, and that they are just not aware of it?" he pondered. "Or…" his voice faded as he looked at Yi Bing.
Yi Bing\'s eyes slightly widened as a thought flashed in his mind. "This is all a coincidence?" he muttered. Suddenly, he shook his head. "I don\'t believe in coincidences." He said.
A faint smile appeared on Huo Ling\'s lips. "Me, neither." He spoke. "But, we can\'t deny the fact that there are ability users." He said and frowned. "And they have more world energy in their body, making them as ability users." He added.
Yi Bing nodded in agreement. "Let\'s see if Jin Wu and his disciple have found something." He spoke.
"Okay." Huo Ling answered.
They didn\'t expect that when Jin Wu\'s team would return, they returned with a group of people familiar to Qi Ming\'s team.
…
"XI KAI!!!" Qi Ming gnashed his teeth when he saw Xi Kai who is surrounded by the second group of his team. "Why the hell are you here?!" he asked.
"Brother." Qi Ying called as he walked towards Qi Ming. "They were also procuring food when a large group of zombies arrived. They…" he gritted his teeth as he begrudgingly continued. "… helped us." He said.
"WHAT?!" Qi Ming exclaimed.
Qi Ying\'s face darkened. "There are many zombies, and there were two level three zombies." He bit his lip. "Jin Wu and Mo Shi dealt with the other one while the other one…" he glanced, and then glared at Xi Kai when he saw Xi Kai was smiling.
Xi Kai is a dual ability user – wind and lightning.
Qi Ming\'s expression looked ugly. "Then why are they here?! Do they want to take our share in exchange of saving your lives?!" he asked as he murderously glared at Xi Kai.
Qi Ying paused when he heard his elder brother\'s question. "He didn\'t say." He answered. "He just said that he has to see you." He told him. "And…" his voice trailed off as his expression changed.
"What?" a female voice lazily spoke. "You won\'t tell your gege what I told you earlier? Why? Feeling guilty?" she asked.
Qi Ming sharply turned to the one who spoke as his eyes narrowed. "What \'guilty\'? Why should Qi Ying feel guilty?!" he asked. "Your nasty leader should be the one who feels guilty!" he said as he glared at Xi Kai whose face is indifferent.
Yi Bing and Huo Ling are watching on the side while Qi Ning has already been hidden by Tang Xiu and Mu Qing. Yi Bing and Huo Ling saw that the second group\'s expression is strange but Qi Ming is blinded by his anger so he didn\'t see it.
"Could it be that there was a misunderstanding that occurred?" Huo Ling spoke. When he saw that their expressions changed, he knew that he has guessed right.
Jenny, the one who spoke earlier, turned. Her eyes brightened when he saw Huo Ling. "This brother, you are smart!" he said.
"Of course Huo-ge is smart! He is the brain of our group!" Mo Shi spoke as he ran towards Huo Ling to escape Jin Wu.
"Your group… Grim Reapers Team, right?" Jenny smiled.
"Yes!" Mo Shi nodded.
"What misunderstanding?" Qi Ming asked when he heard Huo Ling spoke.
Huo Ling looked at the second group of the Rolling Thunders Team before he turned to Xi Kai\'s group. "For them to be confident to come here, then it must be that they don\'t have a guilty conscience. In fact – " he said as he analyzed. Then, he turned to Qi Ming. " – it should be your group who must have wronged them." He told him.
"WHAT?!" Qi Ming\'s voice rose and lightning crackled around his body.
Xi Kai snickered while Jenny and the three women with her and Xi Kai just stood on the side. Yi Bing saw Jin Wu and Jin Wu nodded at him, indicating that what Huo Ling said is right.
"Ge." Qi Ying called. "I\'m sorry." He spoke.
"Qi Ying…?" Qi Ming turned to him.
"That time… I misunderstood what happened." Qi Ying spoke as his voice became smaller. "I also have doubts afterwards, but my mind became blank at that time after I saw jie was…" he lowered his head as his face reddened because of shame. "I\'m sorry…" he said before he turned to look at Xi Kai. Pressing his trembling lips tight while enduring the shame he feels and swallowing his pride, he bowed to Xi Kai. "I\'m sorry…" he told him before he ran inside the building. He didn\'t turn when he passed by Hu Feng and Wen Yan who came to see the commotion.
"What\'s going on? Why is Qi Ying crying?" Wen Yan asked as he looked at everyone.
"Oh? Now, look, sisters. We looked like we are bullying them." Jenny said as she turned to the three women.
"Tch!" Lan, an ice ability user, clicked her tongue while Chichi\'s face is indifferent.
"Ai…" Rei, the plant ability user, sighed.
"I guess – " Huo Ling spoke as he observed the smug expression on Jenny\'s face. " – Xi Kai didn\'t try to… ehem… Qi Ning." He said. "In fact…" he turned to Qi Ming, Hu Feng and Wen Yan. "… I also find it strange. They are in the middle of the fight, so why would he…" he didn\'t continue when he saw Qi Ming\'s face is red because of anger, and might be shame.
Jenny knows that she has to clarify everything. "That time, boss was thrashed by the level three zombie and has overused his ability." She said and glanced at Xi Kai whose face is dark. But, she knows that everything had to be cleared today. "It\'s your sister\'s fault acting like Alice in Wonderland in the battlefield. Boss fell on her." She told them.
Hearing that his sister was insulted, a ball of fire appeared on Qi Ming\'s hand.
"You know that my boss is a proud man." Jenny continued with a smile as she glanced at Xi Kai who glared at her. "He was insulted when he was called a pervert, and of course, he would insult you back." She laughed when she saw the darkened faces of the Rolling Thunder Team. She doesn\'t care about them, though, as she feels good slapping their faces today. "Why would we apologize when it was you who misunderstood us? In fact… shouldn\'t you be the ones apologizing to us?" she asked as she grinned at them. Obviously, she came here with no good intention.
A deafening silence fell and even the crowd of onlookers didn\'t dare to breathe loudly. Who would? Qi Ming is the strongest ability user in the base! Even if there were four new ability users that arrived, but who knows when they would leave? So, they shouldn\'t provoke Qi Ming and made him lose more face.
Jenny saw their reactions and how can she not know what they are thinking? So, she will definitely fan the flames. If even Xi Kai is proud, how can Qi Ming not be? "It was your team who insulted our boss. By right, they should apologize to my boss one by one." She said and slyly looked at the Rolling Thunder Team. "But, since our boss is so magnanimous – " she winked at Xi Kai who glared at her. She then turned to Qi Ming. "Leader Qi, I think it\'s enough if you apologize." She told him as she looked at Qi Ming\'s dark face.
This time, everyone wished that they couldn\'t breathe.
