When her master asked about her superpower, Zhou Yingxue thought about it carefully and said, "I just feel a little stronger than before …."
"Can you be more precise?" Ren Xiaosu raised his eyebrows. "What kind of measurement is that? How about this? Let's go into the wilderness and test out our physical fitness first. "
Under normal circumstances, other than special cases like Yan Liuyuan's, a supernatural being's physical fitness would increase along with their abilities.
When they arrived in the wilderness, Ren Xiaosu got Zhou Yingxue to run at full speed and shake the trees with her fists.
However, to Ren Xiaosu's surprise, the speed and strength Zhou Yingxue displayed were comparable to his shadow clone's!
As a matter of fact, the shadow clone's strength and speed were twice that of Ren Xiaosu's!
In the past, Ren Xiaosu had also deliberately observed that Zhou Yingxue's speed and strength were at most half of his. In other words, in terms of physical fitness alone, Zhou Yingxue was four times stronger than before. She was even twice as strong as Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu was jealous. What kind of luck did this woman have?
The other supernatural beings, even Wang Congyang and Zhou Qi, who were the first to awaken their powers, only had a physical fitness similar to Ren Xiaosu's. They were even inferior to Ren Xiaosu.
But in the end, Zhou Yingxue had only been brought into the stronghold by Ren Xiaosu. They held hands and went for a stroll, but she had already obtained something that others could only dream of.
"What about your superpower? Have you made any new progress?" Ren Xiaosu asked, "There should be a lot of changes in that area, right?"
Zhou Yingxue explained, "I only feel that I can make plants more powerful after controlling them. I've also obtained a new seed's ability that allows me to plant creeper vines …."
When he heard Zhou Yingxue say they could plant creeper vines, Ren Xiaosu felt a little suffocated. Could it be the creeper vines that were as large as the ones in Stronghold 61?
"Don't use this power casually." Ren Xiaosu said, "If others see that you can plant creeper vines that look exactly like the ones in Stronghold 61, they'll think you were the one who planted the creeper vines from before."
However, Ren Xiaosu suddenly discovered another important point. After the creeper vine mutated, Zhou Yingxue absorbed it. As a result, she gained a new seed ability.
Did that mean that if he encountered any new mutated plants in the future, Zhou Yingxue would be able to turn them into his own? In this way, Zhou Yingxue's abilities would increase and become richer.
It turned out that this type of ability had the potential to grow.
Ren Xiaosu immediately planted a Potato Shooter. He looked at Zhou Yingxue and said, "This time, why don't you try absorbing it like how you absorbed the creeper vine's energy?"
Zhou Yingxue did as Ren Xiaosu said. However, the Potato Shooter instantly withered!
Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhou Yingxue. "How is it?"
He saw a ball of green energy turn into a seed in Zhou Yingxue's hand. She said happily, "Master, I can also plant potatoes now!"
"It looks like I'll have to take you there to collect more mutated plants if I hear about them again." Ren Xiaosu frowned and said, "When I was reading Hope Media's newspaper, I think I saw a report on exotic plants in the anecdotes section. I'll go back and look for it later. I'll have to pay more attention to it in the future."
There were not many plants that had mutated these days, and even if they did, they were not aggressive. Otherwise, everyone would not have reacted so slowly to the creeper vine incident.
It was always a good thing that Zhou Yingxue had become stronger. The creeper vine's seed would probably come in handy at a critical moment.
After returning to town, Ren Xiaosu saw the door to Qin Sheng's house open. There were two people packing up inside the house.
He asked curiously, "Where's the owner of this yard?"
When Qin Sheng heard that, he came out of the house and said to Ren Xiaosu, "I've received news that I have to return to Luoyang City immediately. I've had a great time with Brother Xiaosu during this time, but I have to go now."
Ren Xiaosu wondered, "Don't you Knight members have a rule that says you have to stay in a town for a full year? Why are you leaving just like that?"
Ren Xiaosu had realized this rule of the Knight was very strict. Otherwise, when something happened at Stronghold 61, Qin Sheng would have entered the stronghold to rescue them.
So what could be so important that Qin Sheng couldn't wait to rush back to Luoyang City? Could it be that something had happened to the Qinghe Group in Luoyang City?
It seemed like Old Li had also mentioned that the Qinghe Group was not that stable internally.
Qin Sheng looked at Ren Xiaosu and said, "There must be something urgent that needs to be done. But I'm sorry, I can't tell you the truth."
"Where's the threat coming from?" Ren Xiaosu wondered, "All 12 of you Knight members are supernatural beings, so what else can threaten you?"
Qin Sheng said with a wry smile, "I'm afraid that a large number of supernatural beings will be gathering in Luoyang City. The Wang Clan, the Zhou Clan, the Kong Clan, the Anjing House, and the Saboteurs have already been hiding there. Because Luoyang City is open to the public, there's a lot of people coming and going every day, so it's very difficult to keep track of everyone's true identity. Besides … forget it, there are some things that I can't tell you. We shouldn't wash our dirty linen in public."
When Ren Xiaosu heard the word "Saboteurs," he was stunned. Saboteurs!
If he could find the Saboteurs, wouldn't he be able to find Yang Xiaojin? He suddenly said to Qin Sheng, "By the way, I mentioned this to you a few days ago. Wang Yuchi and the others want to apply for Qinghe University. Will your matter be affected?"
Qin Sheng thought for a moment and said, "I don't think so. No matter how malicious they are, there's no need for them to make a move on Qinghe University. There aren't any secrets there. How about this? I'll immediately pass on this matter when I get back. When y 'all get to Luoyang City, no one will stop you. Wang Yuchi and the others can just focus on getting their university exams. "
"Alright, thank you in advance then." Ren Xiaosu nodded and said, "But I don't understand why those forces are targeting Luoyang City."
"They're not targeting Luoyang City." Qin Sheng shook his head and said, "They're just targeting the Qinghe Group. That's because the Qinghe Group has too many satellites in their hands. Such things are very important to an organization."
Ren Xiaosu did not ask any more questions. He did not know why the various forces would take action at this time. As there was not enough information, he could not make a judgment.
Instead of questioning Qin Sheng, he might as well ask the storyteller and Big Bluff.
However, he would have to make a trip to Luoyang City. Of course the satellites had nothing to do with him. He was looking for the Saboteurs.
Wait a minute. Ren Xiaosu suddenly remembered Li Shentan's strange words from before. "You might find something useful if you make a trip to Qinghe University!"
If Qin Sheng had not mentioned the Saboteurs, he would not have thought of this. But when he combined Qin Sheng's words with Li Shentan's, he immediately realized he might have really missed out on something.
Li Shentan definitely did not want him to go to Qinghe University just to watch a boring debate.
Qin Sheng was about to say goodbye when he heard Ren Xiaosu say righteously, "We're friends now. Your Knight's business is my business. I'll go to Luoyang City with you!"
Qin Sheng was stunned. "That's not a good idea. This actually has nothing to do with you …."
"Alright, let's go?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
Qin Sheng was confused. 'Bro, are you listening to me?'
Seeing Ren Xiaosu calling Wang Yuchi and the others over and getting ready to set off immediately, he said helplessly, "Shouldn't you at least pack your things?"
"Don't bother, let's go now!" After Ren Xiaosu said that, he dragged Qin Sheng into the wilderness.
