Chapter 284: Chapter 212 Shuangwei and Fei Huo, Conspiring Together on the Parati Islands

From the deep sea to the land, the once sparse coastline was now bustling with survivors, and countless boats docked at the pier.

Originally, the island’s population, including survivors and natives, was under fifty thousand, but now it had surged to over one hundred thousand.

And many more survivors were still on their way.

Not just survivors, but also numerous trade caravans, bounty hunters, and pirates.

The once somber island had suddenly come to life.

This was the impact Chen Qing had brought.

No wonder the Babalu Family insisted on leveraging Chen Qing’s popularity.

However, looking at the thriving scene on the island, Barbara, who had come looking for Chen Qing, wasn’t very happy.

Things had far exceeded her expectations; there were too many people.

In the conflict with the Delu Gu family, even at the peak of the Babalu Family, they had been defeated.

With so many new forces joining the Red Camp from the Faroe Islands, it was feared that the Delu Gu family would take some...

Barbara felt a vague sense of unease. The current situation was not good.

Of course, she didn’t care about the deaths of the survivors, but Barbara was worried that it might lead to the loss of the Babalu Family’s remaining bases and personnel.

Chen Qing thought similarly to Barbara; with so many new survivors, the Delu Gu family would definitely intensify their offensive on the two islands controlled by the Babalu Family.

However, this was of little concern to Chen Qing.

Since they had utilized her fame, they naturally had to bear the corresponding consequences.

Chen Qing had anticipated that many survivors would come to the island, but she had not expected that both Shuangwei and Fei Huo would be among them.

This was indeed surprising.

Chen Qing had little interaction with the two of them, having only met them twice.

This pair of nearly inseparable bounty hunters was mingling in the crowd, squatting under a coconut tree eating boxed meals, looking as carefree as street loafers.

They were truly grounded.

Shuangwei had sharp eyes and spotted Chen Qing and Barbara immediately.

"Yo."

She quickly finished the contents of her lunchbox and waved to Chen Qing.

"..."

For some reason, Chen Qing detected a scent of poverty emanating from these two.

It was a fragrance she was very familiar with.

"Did something happen to them?"

Chen Qing tilted her head towards Barbara and asked.

Weren’t these two always working as mercenaries for those major forces?

She didn’t think that the Babalu Family could afford to hire them.

"I heard that Shuangwei lost a large sum of money at the casino on Blue Crystal Island in the Gem Sea."

"A very large sum."

Barbara emphasized heavily.

"..."

To be emphasized by Barbara as a very large sum, it must have been a great amount.

Drugs, gambling, and vice are indeed harmful.

"What about Fei Huo?"

"Fei Huo has always acted together with Shuangwei. She doesn’t have this habit—"

Barbara suddenly frowned. She hadn’t heard such news before. With Fei Huo watching over, Shuangwei shouldn’t have caused such a problem.

It seemed there was more to the story.

Regardless of the details, both Shuangwei and Fei Huo were now completely broke.

"Long time no see, Chen Qing. I heard you’ve been quite heated up with Jia Yougu lately."

Shuangwei and Fei Huo came up to greet Chen Qing and Barbara.

"..."

Fei Huo looked at Shuangwei speechlessly. Listen to yourself, starting with a provocation.

"What she means is, you’ve been doing quite well recently."

Fei Huo offered an explanation for Shuangwei.

"Right, right, right."

Shuangwei quickly nodded; she was never good with emotional intelligence, but she didn’t need it anyway.

"Is there something you need?"

"You two are preparing to make a move on the Delu Gu family, right? Count us in."

Shuangwei lowered her voice, excited.

"..."

Fei Huo covered her face, looking utterly despondent.

"From now on, could you please keep quiet?"

She reached out and covered Shuangwei’s mouth, forbidding her to speak any further.

"We’ve received information that the Delu Gu family has dispatched the twins Nelli and Zi Beilu here, and they should already be on Da En Island."

"Barbara, you should be aware of the twins’ capabilities. Your chances of winning against them aren’t high."

Chen Qing had received the news from the Law Enforcers. Aside from Jia and those few pirates, no one else knew.

They wouldn’t idly talk about Chen Qing’s affairs, so outsiders were still unaware that Chen Qing had gained a powerful ally.

"I hear they’ve also dispatched quite a few survivor groups here, Chen Qing. You might be familiar with them."

"As Shuangwei said, we’d like to join your operation this time, and we’ll contribute wherever necessary."
