Chapter 115: Leaving

After saying that, Zhu Lin stood up and walked back to Xiu Wu and others. Looking at her back, Han Xinyue and Zhuo Yuyan were too embarrassed to ask for a detailed explanation.

Zhu Lin didn’t care about their feelings or what they were thinking. It is their choice and they must bear the consequences of their choice. She won’t interfere in their lives as long as they don’t affect her or her friends.

When she sat on the ice silk cloth, Xiu Wu asked, "Did they secretly learn meditation last night?"

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "They are too reckless."

Ji Yang looked at Han Xinyue and Zhuo Yuyan for a moment, shook his head and said, "They are too eager to become stronger. If they can’t control themselves, they have only one ending."

After hearing what he said, Tan Wei patted his belly and said, "Let’s not talk about them anymore. Lao Yang, what is it for breakfast today?"

Ji Yang glanced at his space and said, "There are not many supplies left. We need to go out and find more."

Speaking of this, Zhu Lin thought of the incoming winter and said, "We should find supplies as soon as possible before winter arrives."

Xiu Wu looked at her, thought for a moment, and said, "Xiao Lin is right. I remember that every village has a warehouse to store their products before transporting them out for sale. While we were helping Xiao Lin complete her subjugation mission, let’s search this place along the way."

Ji Yang thought for a while and said, "All right. Let’s do as you say."

Since there were not many supplies left, Zhu Lin took out a few corn from the Qiankun bag and said, "Let’s have steamed corn on the cob for breakfast."

Looking at the big yellow corn, Ji Yang quickly took out a steamer, a portable stove, and a bottle of water. After the corn steamed for five minutes, Ji Yang opened the lid, took out a corn and gave it to Zhu Lin, and then took another corn for himself.

Smelling the sweet scent of corn in the air, Tan Wei and Xiu Wu each took one corn for themselves. While the four of them and Tu Tu were enjoying the steamed sweet corn, the four young ladies on the other side were in a depressed mood.

Meng Zhelan looked at Zhuo Yuyan and Han Xinyue with disappointment and asked, "Why are you doing this? Don’t you know that you will be killed if you steal other people’s skills? You are very lucky that Elder Sister Zhu Lin didn’t do anything to you, and she just warned you."

Hearing what she said, Han Xinyue nodded and said, "Well, you’re right. I should prepare something for her as compensation."

Unlike Han Xinyue who sincerely regretted her mistakes, Zhuo Yuyan had different thoughts. In her opinion, it was indeed wrong for them to secretly learn Zhu Lin’s art of meditation without permission. But isn’t it Zhu Lin’s fault for openly teaching Xiu Wu and the others in front of them? If her skills were stolen, she should blame herself for it.

She looked at Han Xinyue and said, "Yue Yue, we are indeed at fault for stealing her skills. But we don’t owe her anything. After apologizing, we will complete the mission and return to the base. It is not appropriate for us to continue to follow them."

As the leader of their team, Zhuo Yuyan still has decision-making power. After making the decision, they quickly stood up and walked towards Xiu Wu and the others.

Seeing them coming, Ji Yang smiled and asked, "Do you need anything?"

Zhuo Yuyan’s face darkened slightly when she heard this question. To others, Ji Yang’s question was just an ordinary question out of politeness. But when this sentence reached Zhuo Yuyan’s ears, it turned into sarcasm because of her guilt.

She forced a smile and said, "I came here to apologize to Elder Sister Zhu Lin and to inform her that we are going back to the base to report the mission. I will leave the reward for Elder Sister Zhu Lin with Meng Meng. You can get it when you return to base."

After hearing what she said, Zhu Lin knew that they would never cooperate again in the future. She nodded calmly and said, "Be careful on the road."

After saying that, she took a look at the steamer and found that there was still some steamed corn left in it. She picked four large corns from the steamer, handed them to Meng Zhelan, and said, "Eat them on the way."

Meng Zhelan took the four steamed corn and expressed her gratitude: "Thank you, Elder Sister Zhu Lin."

Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Mhm."

Seeing that there is nothing left to say between them, Zhuo Yuyan nodded to the others and left with her friends. Before Meng Zhelan left the house, she suddenly turned around and ran back to Zhu Lin.

She took something out of her pocket, put it into Zhu Lin’s hand, and said regretfully: "I’m sorry for what Yue Yue and Yuyan did. Please accept my apologies."

Leaving these words behind, she hurried out and followed her other three friends. A few seconds later, Zhu Lin looked at the thing on her palm and saw a second rank water element crystal nucleus there.

She smiled slightly and said, "She is a good girl. Unfortunately..."

Putting away the crystal nucleus, Zhu Lin continued to eat her corn. After breakfast, they left the house and walked deeper into the village. Walking on the small dirt road, Zhu Lin spread her divine senses to check the surroundings, but found nothing.

She felt something was wrong and said, "This place is weird. There is not even an ant here, and I don’t feel any sign of any living being except us. There isn’t even a single zombie here."

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiu Wu suddenly raised his hand to signal them to stop and said, "Someone is coming."
