"Donghyuk, did you see Xiahou Chengqin's face? It's so much better than just killing her off." Cecily received a picture from Donghyuk, and her voice sounded satisfied. Her mood was refreshed, seeing Xiahou Chengqin in this state for the first time. It was worth it, waiting for this moment.

Glancing at Cecily from the corner of his eyes, Donghyuk didn't say anything. He didn't know how the Cecily that was usually noble and hot-tempered could become like this.

Even though her temper was still the same, the noble air around her was no longer there, and she was also talking a lot more.

Donghyuk didn't know what went wrong-what had happened for Cecily to become like this?

"That's right, how come I don't see Lili today?" Cecily suddenly recalled. "Isn't she heading back to the capital? And I haven't seen Jiji all day either."

It was unusual to not hear Jiji's mechanical sound for a day.

Donghyuk fiddled with the compass in his hand, answering with an indifferent tone, "Miss Lalisa has gone back to the capital with Big Boss."

"I didn't see the flying blade go out." Cecily was afraid that Lisa would sneak away someday, just like how she sneaked away from Baixing Village the other day. Manager Liu would have probably jumped when he found that Lisa had gone missing.

"They walked out of the desert, not using any tools." Donghyuk said, glancing at Cecily with sympathy in his eyes.

If it was anyone else that had heard Donghyuk's word, they would definitely think he was nuts. Who would go out into the desert with nothing but the clothes on their back? But it was one of their people, so it wasn't anything strange, it was just like taking a trip, nothing strange at all.

What Cecily was sad about was the fact that Lisa had slipped away right under her nose!

How could this be!

"She didn't take me along to play!" Cecily's scream echoed through the skies.

Donghyuk glanced at her again, before moving away from her. He moved away from her, at least ten meters, ignoring her.

In the depths of the desert.

"Shi Yi! Be careful, your back!" A young man looked at his partner in the pit, shouting out.

There was a large pit in front of him, and there were tons of man-eating plants covered in black mist in it. The boy called Shi Yi was being rolled up by the plants, the corroding liquid dripping from their vines. The young boy pulled out a short blade from his boot. "Shi Yi, relax your body. This monster is afraid of steel, catch it!"

He threw the blade into the pit, which was caught by Shi Yi.

"Old Jiu." Another man that was standing by the pit took his own short blade from his boot, his eyes red. "OId Ba has been eaten by the monster for the sake of saving us, I can't just stand and watch as it eats Shi Yi too!"

"Together now." Shi Er looked at Shi Yi, who was wrapped up by the man-eating plant, and pulled out another blade. "I was chosen together with Shi Yi into Boss Ying's team, I won't return with one man short!"
