DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (120)
120. COUNTER-ATTACK
Afterwards, Chu Youning followed Wei Zixin to see the patriarchal beast- an ugly and hunchbacked little old man who was a high-level fire-type ability user. This beast who doesn't treat women as human beings, humbled himself and bowed repeatedly when he saw Wei Zixin, he was just short of kneeling to lick her feet.
Wei Zixin told Chu Youning that this was the taste of power.
Of course, Chu Youning knows what power tastes like. She had seen too much along the way. She knew that Wei Zixin had shown her all of this on purpose. She wanted to open up a new world for Chu Youning and thus establish a new outlook on life and values in her mind.
In fact, Chu Youning had already set her own goals. Wei Zixin's actions were purely superfluous to her, and she would not be intimidated by all of these either. But... It was still that sentence- Chu Youning can be powerful, but she cannot make Wei Zixin feel that she was uncontrollable.
When they were resting at night, Chu Youning pursed her lips and said to Wei Zixin, "If you can kill him, I will listen to whatever you say!"
Wei Zixin looked at Chu Youning for a long time. She had seen too many tragedies along the way, but never said anything. Even when Wei Zixin asked her if she wanted to save anyone, she only asked 'And then what after that?'. Wei Zixin thought that she might be indifferent, or she might just be resigned to fate, until now...
Chu Youning let Wei Zixin kill the base lord, just because she had said that the style of a base depended on the base lord. So... she asked Wei Zixin to kill the base lord to deal with the root cause of the problem.
Of course, it was the end of the world, and even if he was killed, there will still be other beasts, but... it must be said that Chu Youning was still quite clever.
Wei Zixin did not disappoint Chu Youning and killed the base lord right in front of her.
When Chu Youning saw that the base lord died without a sound, her eyes flashed slightly. Those few people around Wei Zixin... were too powerful!
Although those who could follow Wei Zixin were probably the best, but... the guards were all so strong, then that man of Wei Zixin's, how powerful was he after all?
After leaving the base, the group went to a medium-sized base, and unlike before, Wei Zixin disappeared as soon as she entered the base. Just from the words between her and her guards, it was not difficult to see that she seemed to be looking for someone.
Wei Zixin was gone for a day and didn't come back until evening. But after she came back, although it was not obvious from her behavior, Chu Youning could feel that her mood was very low.
If she was looking for a person in general, just like when Wei Zixin was looking for Chu Youning, she shouldn't have been so disappointed even if she couldn't find the person. But she was in such a low mood... The person Wei Zixin was looking for should be her sister!
Chu Youning's eyes flashed slightly. Wei Zixin had been attacking her along the way, and this time... it was her turn to counter-attack.

Not long after, Chu Youning sat next to Wei Zixin and handed her a bowl of porridge.
Wei Zixin, who was immersed in her own world, was stunned for a moment, and then was attracted by a fresh fragrance. Looking down, she saw that it was from a bowl of thick porridge. With Wei Zixin's status, there was no shortage of food even in the apocalypse, but this bowl of porridge... was really fragrant.
Chu Youning didn't say anything, she didn't ask or comfort, just stuffed the porridge into Wei Zixin's hands. Wei Zixin stared at the porridge for a while. She had been looking for her sister since the beginning of the apocalypse, and when she couldn't find her sister, she had also heard a lot of "consolations" along the way. There were hypocritical ones who said that her sister would definitely be found and told her not to be sad. There were also those who coldly said that the person she was looking for must have long disappeared since the person couldn't be found even after so long.
Chu Youning, however, was very strange. She just sat next to her without saying a word, and even handed over a bowl of porridge.
It have to be said... After searching for so long, Wei Zixin had heard too many cynical remarks and she couldn't hear anymore of it at all. So every time, she would find a place where no one was there, to sit quietly for a night. The fact that Chu Youning didn't say anything, made her feel a lot more comfortable.
