Chapter 21
Ye Li took another look at Ah Da. Ah Da was becoming more and more handsome with a height of 1.9 meters, exuding an imposing aura.
He was undoubtedly a person whom no one dared to provoke in Tongcheng now.
However…
Ye Li wondered if the Guardian Scorpion had left or not.
He put Ah Da and Hongye into the system space, had something to eat, and continued his search for zombies.
He arrived at an abandoned factory, which seemed to have been deserted for a long time, covered in weeds and rust.
Entering the factory, he found only a dozen male zombies. Ye Li was somewhat disappointed, but it was better than nothing. He synthesized all these dozen zombies.
“Ah!”
Just as Ye Li was about to leave, he heard a scream, a girl’s scream.
He hurried in the direction of the sound and found a girl lying on the ground with a cut on her hand, seemingly caused by rusty steel.
“Don’t catch me, don’t catch me!” The girl looked at Ye Li in horror and screamed.
The girl was quite pretty, about the same age as Ye Li, around sixteen or seventeen.
Tears welled up in the corners of the girl’s eyes, as if she had been greatly frightened.
“What’s wrong with you?” Ye Li looked at the girl impatiently and asked.
The girl was taken aback by his words, pondered for a few seconds, and then cautiously looked at Ye Li and said:
“You… you’re not here to take me back, are you?”
“Why would I take you back? Do we know each other?”
Ye Li wondered if the girl had a mental problem. It would be a shame to see such a beautiful girl like this.
The girl breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing his words. “I thought you came to take me back to the White Lotus Sect.”
That statement immediately rang a bell to Ye Li!
He instantly knew who the girl was. At the hotel, the Four Great Vajras said they were looking for Miss Xiao Hui.
Even with just a little thought, it was easy to figure out that the girl in front of him must be Xiao Hui.
“You’re Xiao Hui, right?” Ye Li said slowly.
“I… I’m not.” the girl quickly shook her head.
Ye Li smiled. “Stop pretending. I’m not from the White Lotus Sect.”
Xiao Hui looked at Ye Li in shock. For some reason, her intuition told her that Ye Li was not lying, even though this was the first time they had met.
“How did you know my name?” Xiao Hui curiously asked Ye Li.
“I heard it from others. What are you doing here?” Ye Li asked casually.
Xiao Hui’s pale face turned even paler at his words.
“I have no choice. I have to escape.”
Ye Li was curious about the conflict of interests between Xiao Hui and the White Lotus Sect. Xiao Hui seemed like an ordinary person.
“The Young Master of the White Lotus Sect, Bai Wawa, treats me as a sex slave. He wants to refine me, so I had to escape,” Xiao Hui said directly.
“Is Bai Wawa powerful?” Ye Li asked.
“He’s very powerful, a third-tier Evolved Being. Once he refines me, he will become a fourth-tier Evolved Being.”
No wonder they were looking for Xiao Hui. It all made sense now.
“Senior, are you also an Evolved Being?”
Xiao Hui asked. She had secretly watched Ye Li synthesize the zombies earlier, thinking he was from the White Lotus Sect. Overwhelmed by fear, she accidentally cut herself on the rusted iron and fell to the ground.
“I’m not.” Ye Li shook his head.
“Senior, I know you must be an Evolved Being. Can you please save me?”
Xiao Hui’s eyes were filled with a pleading expression…
