Hongtang wanted to let Xue Li go, but Brother Ha wouldn't allow it.

The lightning crackled and popped, striking Xue Li, causing him to convulse, billowing black smoke, and making his wounds bleed even faster, especially his abdomen.

Blood was everywhere; tsk tsk, it was a truly gruesome sight.

"Meow~" Ha Ge meowed happily, rubbing affectionately against Hong Tang's palm.

Foolish woman, I've caught the thief who stole our house, so don't let him get away!

Hongtang sighed, realizing that Ha-ge and Xue Li had become sworn enemies without her knowledge, and that Ha-ge was truly ruthless.

Hongtang was right about the truth, but unfortunately she will never know.

“A huge, bloody hole in his abdomen…” Hongtang recalled what Lin Yao had told her last night about the attack on the high-ranking officers of the First Base and the injury to the assassin.

Isn't that just a coincidence?

Could the assassin from last night really be Xue Li? But why would he want to assassinate the top brass of the First Base?

Hey, that's a stupid question. Hongtang slapped her forehead.

Hitmen kill people either for money or out of revenge.

Is it still for the sake of upholding justice?

If that's the case, we can't let him die yet.

Hongtang found another excuse to save Xue Li.

Seeing that Xue Li was taking in more air than he was exhaling, Hong Tang quickly released her wood energy.

A dense, pale green energy enveloped Xue Li's entire body like a cloud of mist. Soon, his wounds stopped bleeding and began to heal visibly.

Hongtang did not fully heal Xue Li's injuries; she withdrew her hand only after he was out of danger.

However, his black clothes were already tattered and in a terrible state, but Hongtang was not kind enough to change them for him.

She took out some high-quality hemostatic powder from her space and sprinkled it on his abdominal wound. She then bandaged it with gauze. Because she didn't have much experience, the bandaging was only barely effective and managed to hold it in place.

"Meow~" Ha Ge protested incessantly from the side.

Foolish woman, this man is very slippery and hard to catch. He has escaped from me three times already. You can't let him go.

"Brother Ha, put your personal grudges aside for now. This guy can't die yet. Daddy has important things to confirm with him. Besides, he's quite capable. If we can recruit him, we'll have another free henchman and source of labor. It'll also relieve some of your pressure, right?" Hongtang earnestly reasoned with Brother Ha while bandaging Xue Li's wounds, though it was unclear whether Brother Ha would listen.

"Meow?" Ha Ge tilted his head and looked at Hong Tang, his little eyes revealing surprise and confusion.

What is that stupid woman babbling on and on? I can't understand a single word.

Fine, do whatever you want. I won't bother with this little thing. Even if you let this scoundrel go this time, I'll just catch him again next time.

My own silly woman, I have to spoil her myself.

After barking a few times, Ha Ge wagged his tail and ran away.

Ha Ge: I still need to go check on that woman next door. She's even more stupid. She's confused herself. I hope she doesn't stay at home, or that stupid woman will get into big trouble.

Sigh, this young master is destined to be a worrywart. If it weren't for him, this family would fall apart sooner or later.

Hongtang was overjoyed by Ha Ge's adorable antics; Ha Ge was just too cute! ~(@^_^@)~

After treating Xue Li's wounds, Hong Tang tried to send him back to his room using telekinesis, and to her surprise, it worked.

But a new problem arose: there was no stove in his room, and if he were left to stay there all night, he would freeze to death.

There was no other way, so Hongtang also went to Xue Li's room through spatial teleportation. Fortunately, his room also had a heater and coal and charcoal.

I helped him start a fire and put some bread and water by his bedside so he could eat as soon as he woke up.

After thinking for a moment, Hongtang found some glucose water in her space and roughly fed him half a bottle, placing the rest on the bedside table as well.

"I've worked so hard tonight, I hope you won't let all my efforts go to waste." If you dare to betray me, I'll kill you later.

Hongtang returned to her room, cleaned up the bloodstains on the living room floor, and checked on Han Ya. Seeing that she was mostly unharmed and just fast asleep, she felt much relieved.

"Brother Ha, here's your snack."

Hongtang took out another 20 purified crystal cores and placed them in Ha Ge's food bowl. Because she didn't know how many crystal cores Ha Ge could absorb at once, she only gave him 20 for now.

She also gave some crystal cores to the wolf pack in the space, and of course, Tengteng and Sisi were not left out either.

Based on the children's levels, Hongtang roughly estimated:

哈哥雷系3级,土系1级,共吸收了20颗晶核。藤藤4级,吸收了25颗晶核。丝丝2级,只吸收了10颗晶核。群狼们则吸收了5~15颗晶核不等。

It seems that when the ability level is 1 to 3, each level can absorb up to 5 crystal cores, while when the ability level reaches 4 or above, each level can absorb up to 10 crystal cores.

With a clear understanding in mind, Hongtang silently began to calculate the allocation of the crystal cores.

This mission yielded a total of [number] crystal cores, including several non-attribute crystal cores. These can be used as Originium for the Space, the 7-Brother Infrastructure, the Heater, and other items.

There are more than 500 superpower crystal cores, which is not a large number compared to others, but it is a huge sum of money compared to others.

These are all reserved for the cubs, including the wolf pack.

Only the White Wolf King in the wolf pack has a level 3 ice-type ability; the others mostly have level 1 or 2 strength and speed-enhancing abilities.

Well, we still need to give the wolf pack some more attribute-less crystal cores so they can level up better in the future. So, Hongtang left the remaining 100 attribute-less crystal cores for the wolf pack.

It wasn't that she was stingy for giving so little; it was that she had energy water for them. Energy water was more effective than crystal cores, and she had plenty.

But crystal cores are different; they can only be obtained by killing zombies.

After Hongtang replaced the super energy stones used to maintain the shapes of the small white building, warehouse, breeding farm and energy spring drinking platform in the space with crystal cores, Chi Ye also returned.

Hongtang cooked a large bowl of noodles for him and herself, with dried vegetables, eggs, ham sausage, and pickled vegetables added. Before the apocalypse, this kind of noodle was just an ordinary bowl of noodles, but after the apocalypse, it became a rare and delicious meal.

Chino was deeply moved and quickly finished the two large bowls. The other bowl was naturally given to him by Hongtang.

Hongtang was well aware of the taste of the food she cooked, so she barely ate anything, only drank a few sips of soup, and gave the rest to Chi Ye, who was so moved that tears streamed down his face.

"Sweetie, I'd die happy if I could eat noodles cooked by you."

"Pshaw! You don't have to go to such lengths to flatter someone." Hongtang looked disgusted; this person was too unrealistic.

The noodles were cooked a bit too hastily today. Ha Ge only took a sniff and ran away. From its disdainful look, Hong Tang knew that today's noodles weren't as good as the last few times.

However, she didn't expect that Chi Ye would actually finish it all. Anyway, she would definitely go into the space for an extra meal that night, so she would have lobster noodles. Hehe, she's been craving something lately (??﹃??).

After dinner, Chi Ye brought up a lot of supplies and things from downstairs, all of which belonged to him and Han Ya. It turned out that the two of them had arrived in Chi Ye's Hummer SUV, which was filled with various supplies.

Furthermore, Chi Ye also brought his father's letters and tokens. It's unclear what deal the Chi family made with the Second Base, but the authorities have already approved a villa for the Chi family, and they can move in tomorrow.

Wow, a wealthy businessman is a wealthy businessman. No matter what, his wealth is always more substantial than others.

That night, Hongtang spent her time filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred.
