The apocalyptic livestream attracted a lot of haters, alarming the government.

Zhou Qirui and his group behind him were all waiting to watch the drama unfold, their faces showing a mixture of curiosity and secret schadenfreude.

After all, Zhu Peng, as a newcomer, did not leave a good impression on everyone.

It wasn't because of his overly avant-garde hip-hop look, but rather his arrogant and extremely impolite manner.

After arriving here, he kept muttering and nitpicking, cursing and swearing, just like an arrogant scoundrel.

Therefore, as soon as Liu Yang had a conflict with the other party, everyone secretly began to look forward to Zhu Peng's impending punishment.

Liu Yang stood up, straightened his clothes, and composed himself, his emotions a mixture of excitement and anger. However, a flicker of disgust still lingered in his eyes as he glanced at Zhu Peng. He then turned to Ye Xiao and said:

"Brother Xiao, it's not that I want to cause trouble, it's just that this kid lives next to me, and he plays music really loudly and shouts a lot. I told him to stop playing so loudly and stop shouting. It not only disturbs other people's rest, but it also poses a safety hazard at night."

"This kid started swearing, saying things like 'What the hell is it to me?' and he shouted even louder, rapping while swearing."

Liu Yang shrugged dismissively and glanced at Zhu Peng. "Since he won't listen to reason and won't shut up, I'll just have to force him to shut up!"

"Fuck you!"

Zhu Peng spat, puffed out his chest, and raised his arm as if he was about to pounce, but Lu Zhao pinned him to the ground with one hand against his chest.

But Zhu Peng was still cursing: "I'll remember you, you just wait, I'll kill you sooner or later!"

"What did you say?"

As soon as Zhu Peng finished speaking, Ye Xiao's voice suddenly broke through. The voice was cold and sharp, like an icicle on a rooftop in the dead of winter, suppressing a fierce aura. If it were to fall, it would pierce through flesh.

The surroundings fell silent for a moment, and Liu Yang and the others immediately realized that Ye Xiao's attitude was a bit off.

However, Zhu Peng did not notice anything amiss. His reason was still consumed by the anger and rage in his chest. He stiffened his neck, as if to maintain his proud dignity, and raised his chin again, repeating the same thing.

I'll kill him sooner or later!

[Milk Egg Not Bland: This idiot is finished]

[Three Foxes: This idiot really can't read between the lines!]

[Aken's book: I'm speechless. People are so abstract.]

[Dawn's Flame: Xiao Ge is angry, hahaha, he's finished!]

……

The fans in the live stream noticed that Ye Xiao's expression was off and cheered with schadenfreude.

After Zhu Peng shouted this, he realized that the atmosphere around him was a bit strange. Everyone's eyes were silently watching Zhu Peng. Lu Zhao frowned, his eyes filled with suppressed anger. Ye Xiao's expression was calm, but his gaze was so cold that it seemed to freeze people.

Even if Zhu Peng was incredibly oblivious, he knew that the atmosphere was a bit off. He silently suppressed his arrogance and looked up to meet Ye Xiao's cold eyes.

Ye Xiao silently looked at Zhu Peng for two seconds, then waved to Bai Hu and Lan Ling.

"It seems he's not suited to live here. Have the keys to the prison been sorted out?"

Lan Ling and Bai Hu exchanged a glance and immediately understood Ye Xiao's meaning. Bai Hu nodded, "It's all sorted out."

"Take him there, get him a blanket, and lock the door."

Hearing Ye Xiao's words, Zhu Peng sensed something was wrong. Seeing Bai Hu and Lan Ling grab his arms, Zhu Peng panicked and shouted at the top of his lungs:

"What do you want to do? What are you planning to do?"

Without giving Zhu Peng a chance to struggle, White Fox directly used a grappling technique, twisting Zhu Peng's hand into a pretzel, rendering him unable to move.

"Once we're here, we're all brothers in the same boat. Do you think I'd let you get away with this? Not even a thought!"

"I've said it before, I will nip any threat in the bud!"

Ye Xiao wanted the other party, everyone here, and everyone in the live stream who was just there for the sake of it and trying to join in the fun to know.

His harsh words were never a joke!

Ye Xiao stood with his hands in his pockets, his young face unusually cold and stern. The air seemed thick and heavy because of his low aura, and even Lu Zhao could feel a murderous aura that made his skin tremble.

"Since you don't intend to stay here obediently for a month, I'll have to resort to some extreme measures."

"I'll let you stay safely for a month, and then I'll send you back. Don't worry, you won't starve!"

"What are you planning to do? What are you trying to do? Why are you locking me up? Are you trying to mess with me on purpose? Why aren't you punishing him?"

"unfair!"

Zhu Peng struggled and screamed, but he still couldn't break free from the white fox's grip.

Ye Xiao nodded towards Bai Hu and Lan Ling, and the two of them dragged Zhu Peng downstairs.

Zhu Peng's defiant howls echoed from downstairs, followed immediately by Lan Ling's cold, threatening voice:

"Say it again and I'll break your jaw. Don't you ever learn?"

The relentless danger successfully silenced Zhu Peng's screams.

The live stream chat erupted in cheers and excitement.

[Clear Sky: After watching so many live streams, I can't believe there are still such idiots.]

[The handsome young master: There's nothing I can do, some people are just stupid.]

[Setting Sun and Cold Snow: Why bother? Now look what happened, you're going to do, spend a month in jail.]

[Just Out of Anger: Hahaha, this is a prison, and it really is prison.]

……

As the farce came to an end, Lu Zhao opened his mouth, but ultimately kept it silent.

Ye Xiao waved to everyone and said, "Alright, go back and rest."

He glanced at Liu Yang, his gaze sweeping over him. "You still have to work tonight, get some rest."

"Yes, Brother Xiao!"

Liu Yang obediently agreed.

Everyone dispersed, and Tao Yu walked absentmindedly behind. When she met Ye Xiao's gaze, she immediately lowered her head, shrinking back with fear and apprehension in her eyes.

After the farce ended, things finally returned to calm.

Early the next morning,

Today's breakfast is dumplings. While eating, Sister Lin seemed hesitant, but still walked to Ye Xiao's side and whispered a few words in his ear.

Ye Xiao paused, turned to look at Tao Yu not far away, and said to Sister Lin in a low voice:

"Since she's not going to work properly, there's no need to waste food. Let her go hungry."

Lin Jie got up with satisfaction, walked a few steps to Tao Yu, and took the plate in front of her directly.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Tao Yu pouted in dissatisfaction, her face showing displeasure. She was annoyed by the thought of how Sister Lin had been ordering her around in the kitchen.

Sister Lin glanced back at Tao Yu and said indifferently, "Ye Xiao said that if you don't work properly, you shouldn't eat. Our base doesn't support idlers."

Tao Yu felt annoyed and wanted to swear, but thinking of how Zhu Peng was treated last night, she swallowed her resentment back.

After breakfast, Ye Xiao led the pioneer team to gather in the parking lot.

The group checked the weapons they had been given before walking out of the base gate.

Ahead, besides the road winding down the mountain, there was only a dense forest.

The forest was very dense, with no roads whatsoever; one could easily get lost if not careful.

However, if you follow a line upwards, you can naturally return to the base.

But for them, the potential threats lurking in the forest along the way were a huge gamble.

For safety reasons, Ye Xiao did not split into groups, but instead led everyone to follow behind Ye Xing.

Once inside the forest, Lu Zhao felt as if he were being submerged by plants, his vision filled with lush greenery, which made him very uncomfortable.

But Ye Xiao and his group appeared unusually calm. After all, this place was far inferior to the green dome, and they had long since become immune to it.

From time to time, a commotion could be heard from the towering, dense canopy of trees, and occasionally, the calls of animals could be heard from the forest.

The plants here are not as twisted as those inside the city; apart from being denser and taller, they still maintain their normal appearance.

The creatures were not heavily polluted, but unexpectedly, they soon discovered numerous pits and holes throughout the forest.

Those "man-made" pits.
