Teng folded his arms before his chest, then dropped his head as he wore a frown and said, “Hmm, I have some feelings, but I don’t know what’s going on.”

Lin Qiao looked at him and said, “You have a strong hunch. If only you could see the future like Wenwen… Those creatures out there are pretty annoying. There are too many different types of them, and their numbers are huge too. We don’t know how to protect our base against them efficiently or kill them.”

“I wonder where is Aunty Wenwen. But, I’m not worried about her at all actually. I feel that she will return safely.” That was why he hadn’t been anxious about Lin Wenwen’s missing.

Lin Qiao sighed, “I hope she’ll come back soon, or we might really not able to cure Yuan Tianxing.”

Teng glanced at her, then abruptly reached out and patted her on the arm to comfort her, “Don’t worry, Mama, Uncle Yuan will be fine.”

At that moment, Lin Qiao sensed Duan Juan’s scent from outside the door. Soon, the door knock was heard.

“Come in,” Lin Qiao said to the door.

Duan Juan immediately opened the door and rushed in while speaking anxiously, “Chief, it’s Deputy Chief Yuan!”

Lin Qiao furrowed her brows as she stood up and put Teng on the couch, “I’m heading out for a bit.”

After saying that, she quickly turned and left with Duan Juan.

Wu Chengyue came out to find her gone. Looking at the two children, he asked, “She left again?”

The kids turned and nodded at him together.

“She only came back for a shower. Now, she’s left again,” said Wu Chengyue helplessly.

On the other side of the base, Duan Juan and Lin Qiao soon arrived at Yuan Tianxing’s room. They saw Lin Hao standing in the room with a deep frown. Clearly, the situation wasn’t good.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Qiao walked in while speaking. She looked at Yuan Tianxing, who was still soaking in the water, and saw the deep purple on his skin.

Seeing that, she knitted her brows. The purple color had covered Yuan Tianxing’s entire chest, the other shoulder, and his arms. The area below his neck had mostly turned purple.

She narrowed her eyes to observe the energy inside his body and saw that the black energy sparkling with a red light had spread all over his body. Moreover, the green energy from the water was gone. The energy that Lin Qiao sent into Yuan Tianxing’s body to suppress the black energy was gone too.

“Why did it suddenly spread?” Yuan Tianxing’s condition was stable just a couple of hours ago. Why did the black energy erupt suddenly?

With a frown, Lin Qiao spent a few seconds observing Yuan Tianxing’s body, then abruptly dragged him out of the bucket and put him on the bed. After that, she poured three cups of lake water into his mouth and quickly renewed the water in the bucket.

Next, she lifted him and put him back into the bucket, then put a hand in the water to send the energy in the water into his body.

While doing that, she asked Lin Hao, “How did it become like this? Did you do anything before this?”

Lin Hao shook his head, “No, nothing. It just happened.”

Once again, the green energy in the water seeped into Yuan Tianxing’s body through his pores and suppressed the dark energy that was flowing inside his body, calming it down.

Lin Hao stood nearby and watched Lin Qiao’s movement. He thought for a moment and said, “Maybe it’s because the energy in the water ran out.”

“But, he has been soaking in the water for days. Nothing happened before,” Lin Qiao looked at him confusedly.

Lin Hao waved at her and said, “That’s not right. Before, no one was controlling the energy in the water, and the dark energy wasn’t triggered. I think when you sent the energy in the water into his body, you also accidentally activated the dark energy.”

“So, I did the opposite to what I wished?” said Lin Qiao.

Lin Hao shook his head again and said, “Not exactly. If you didn’t suppress the dark energy with the energy in the water, I think he’d soon become like this anyway. That dark energy will spread sooner or later unless we remove it from his body for good.”

“This is troublesome,” Lin Qiao sighed, “Even my lake water isn’t working.”

Currently, there was no solution for Yuan Tianxing’s condition or those dangerous underground creatures.

Looking at Yuan Tianxing, Lin Qiao continued, “If Wenwen came back to see him like this, she’d be worried dead.”

…

After returning to Dong Family’s mansion that night, Lin Wenwen had spent a few days with anxiety. Only after that did she slowly calm down as no image popped in her mind again.

She still worked very hard to exercise herself. After one week of hard-working, Dong Xinxin’s body was finally not as weak and powerless as before. It was easier and easier for her to do sports. Her body shape didn’t change much though; she only lost a few pounds.

Dong Xinxin stayed awake for longer and longer time, and slept less and less.

“Still working out?” Dong Lijia pushed the door open and stuck his head in, looking at Lin Wenwen, who was on the treadmill.

Lin Wenwen was running on the treadmill using Dong Xinxin’s fat body. Sweat was streaming down her forehead, soaking the hair by her temples while her face was red. She clenched her teeth and gasped for air. Her pace was unhurried and rhythmical. It seemed that she had been running for quite a while.

Dong Lijia walked in and stood beside her as he looked at her and said, “You’re really working hard to lose weight for Xinxin.”

During the past few days, he constantly asked Lin Wenwen to prove that she was not a guy. However, no matter how Lin Wenwen tried to prove it, he wouldn’t believe her. Lin Wenwen was so angry that she had to kick his ass to make him shut up every time.

Hearing his words, Lin Wenwen glanced at him while breathing heavily, then kept running.

She wanted to tell him that she had no choice. Without strengthening Dong Xinxin’s body to provide her soul with energy, she wouldn’t be able to give the body back to the other.

“Oh, you’ve ordered so much gas. Is there enough room in your space?” Dong Lijia asked her.

It was difficult for ordinary people to purchase gasoline in large batches. Thankfully, Dong Lijia knew a boy whose family was doing the gasoline business, and helped Lin Wenwen to order over three-hundred buckets of gasoline from the company run by the boy’s family. The gasoline would be delivered in over a month.

Hearing the question, Lin Wenwen turned off the treadmill and slowly came off it. While wiping her face with a towel, she said, “Why would I order so much if there isn’t enough room in my space?”
