“As the esteemed Lord of Civilization City, the owner of antidotes, vaccines, and transformation agents, do you think I’m lacking in these few crystal nuclei? Do I need you to ‘see’ me? Would I cease to be Wen Qingling without this one look from you?”

Xiao Hen looked at a beast crystal rolling near his feet and said, “I know you need energy.”

Wen Qingling huffed angrily, “Yes, I do need energy, but I don’t need you to exchange your life for these things! As the protector of this city, why do my people have to be so humble? As long as I want, plenty of people would offer me a handful of crystal nuclei and beast crystals!”

Xiao Hen: “…”

Xiao Hen couldn’t refute it because it was the truth.

However, Xiao Hen felt that their conversation seemed to be off track. “Did you misunderstand something?”

“Misunderstand? Me, misunderstand?” Wen Qingling was infuriated, pacing in place before plucking a blue beast crystal from thin air and starting to gnaw on it.

Xiao Hen: “…”

The soldiers waiting under the helicopter: “…”

They stared dumbfoundedly!

They had never seen someone directly gnawing on a beast crystal before. This dentition, this digestion, this absorption ability… truly awe-inspiring!

Xiao Hen quickly reacted and moved to snatch the blue beast crystal, but Wen Qingling evaded him. While gnawing on the crystal, he glared at Xiao Hen fiercely, as if he was not gnawing at a beast crystal but at Xiao Hen himself.

Xiao Hen: “…”

Xiao Hen felt a chill running down his spine. He was so intimidating.

Xiao Hen dryly said, “These are truly your rewards, not my life’s worth…”

Wen Qingling pointed at Xiao Hen with the half-gnawed beast crystal, “Tell me, whose person are you?”

Xiao Hen’s heart raced, and he took a step forward, grasping Wen Qingling’s hand filled with crumbs. “Yours.”

Wen Qingling pulled his hand back and continued pointing at him, asking, “Whose life is it?”

Xiao Hen confidently replied, “Yours.”

Xiao Hen adored his arrogant appearance and reached out to pull the little zombie closer for a hug. However, the little zombie threw a blue beast crystal with bite marks at him.

The little zombie was still angry. “You are mine, and your life belongs to me. You have no right to decide your own life and death, and I also disagree with you sacrificing yourself for Central Giant City!”

Xiao Hen caught the thrown beast crystal and helplessly coaxed, “I really didn’t mean to sacrifice myself.”

Who the hell was spreading nonsense in front of the little zombie? When did he ever decide to sacrifice himself for Central Giant City?!

It was pure fabrication! Pure fabrication!

Wen Qingling said, “Then don’t go back to Central Giant City.”

Xiao Hen: “…”

Central Giant City was currently in chaos, and if he abandoned his mission halfway, would Old Xiao and Old Xue come to beat him up?

Seeing that he remained silent, Wen Qingling widened his eyes, resembling an angry little leopard. “If you’re worried about your father, I’ll personally go and bring him back. Let the others go die!”
