Leaving Qin You's wooden house, the two strolled leisurely to the grassy area by the lake. It was daytime now, and the people of the oasis were busy making a living. Apart from the patrols, few people came to the lakeside.
Lou Ling sulked, kicking at the grass under her feet. The black surface of her shoes was stained with green grass juice. She noticed that the grass here grew exceptionally well, and she wondered if Qin You frequently used her ability to nurture them.
"Angry?" he asked with a smile.
Lou Ling was indeed a little angry. Just now, Qin You had acted as if she didn't exist, making numerous suggestive remarks towards Lou Dian that even she blushed hearing. Although they claimed to be siblings, even siblings wouldn't seduce their brother in front of their sister. However, seeing him now, looking as pleased as punch, she calmed down.
Knowing that a certain deviant was happy because she was jealous, Lou Ling couldn't bring herself to be angry anymore. Qin You or whoever, daring to covet her man, should just die, die, die, die, die!
Lou Dian happily wrapped his arm around her waist and touched her neck, looking like he was about to get frisky, making her scalp tingle. She quickly jumped away, changing the subject, "Are we really leaving tomorrow?"
"Mm." Lou Dian pulled her to sit beside him on the grass in the shade, looking at the calm lake, lazily basking in the sunlight filtering through the trees, extremely comfortable.
The day passed quickly, and night fell.
Not long after the two had dinner and sent the Bach siblings away, Qin Jun came over, saying that Qin You had invited Lou Dian over to discuss something.
Lou Ling instantly felt uneasy. The night was alluring, a lone man and a lone woman, suitable for doing some beastly things.
Lou Dian smiled faintly and said, "Since Miss Qin has invited us, we siblings will make the trip."
Unexpectedly, Qin Jun seemed a bit hesitant. He said, "It's getting late, and aren't you leaving tomorrow? Miss Lou is a girl, it's better to rest and conserve your energy. Mr. Lou can go alone."
At this point, Qin Jun had evolved into a pimp in Lou Ling's mind, blatantly procuring for Lou Dian! Lou Ling said with a forced smile, "It's fine, I'm not that fragile. I can spare a little time."
Lou Dian pulled her to his side, putting his arm around her shoulders, and said cheerfully, "Xiao Ling is right. She's not that weak. Captain Qin doesn't need to accommodate her."
Qin Jun looked at them, knowing full well they were feigning ignorance. He knew Qin You wanted to win over Lou Dian and what her goal was. He didn't have any objections, but he felt somewhat uncomfortable. He truly liked Qin You, but the woman he liked was ambitious, resourceful, and capable, not someone he could monopolize. So he positioned himself as a supporter.
Although he didn't quite agree, thinking of Qin You's status as a peak fourth-tier ability user, Qin Jun didn't say anything more.
When the two arrived at the Sage's house, having already been there once during the day, they now saw a red lantern hanging from the eaves of the small wooden house. If the red lantern weren't electric, Lou Ling would have laughed herself silly. What role was Qin You playing? Was she really a madam?
Qin Jun led them to the front of the small wooden house and then left.
Qin You's ability cultivation speed was extremely fast. It could be said that in the third year of the apocalypse, with her current level, she could already stand at the very top of humanity's strongest. Therefore, she could control all the mutated plants in the oasis and was extremely confident in her abilities. Because of this confidence, there were no Qin family ability users protecting her, and within a thousand meters, there was absolutely no one.
As soon as the two stepped into the small wooden house, they smelled a strong floral fragrance. Within the fragrance, there was also a faint, strange scent.
It was poison gas!
Besides stimulating growth, wood-type ability users could also extract toxins from mutated plants and use them as weapons. Qin You's ability level had broken through the fourth tier, achieving a qualitative leap. She had a masterful control over her ability and was very skilled at refining toxins.
As soon as she smelled the floral fragrance, Lou Ling fainted.
Lou Dian unhurriedly caught her, slowly walked into the small wooden house, and closed the door.
Qin You was sitting on the same sofa as during the day. Her loose robe was gone, replaced by a red gauze draped over her body. She wore nothing underneath, her curves on full display, the mysterious three points vaguely visible, enough to make a man's blood boil.
Unfortunately, Lou Dian didn't even glance at her. After entering the room, he casually sat on the sofa opposite her, placing the unconscious person in his arms, holding her casually and comfortably, combing her shoulder-length hair with his fingers.
Qin You's originally seductive and leisurely posture instantly crumbled. She looked at the calm man with some surprise, her brows furrowed. She asked, "You weren't poisoned?"
Lou Dian looked at her indifferently. "If you're referring to the mutated beast meat, I'm sorry, we didn't touch it."
"Impossible—" Her voice abruptly stopped. She quickly understood that Lou Dian had long known that the mutated beast meat Bach had sent them was poisoned. The poison was refined by her. It wouldn't be fatal, but it could suppress an ability user's abilities, allowing the poisoner to control them.
If they hadn't eaten the food provided by the oasis, what had they been eating these past few days? Under her surveillance, she knew that the two had only brought two backpacks when they arrived, and the food inside wasn't much, not enough to last them two days. Could it be… one of them had a space ability?
Although her plan had backfired, Qin You quickly recovered from her surprise. A seductive smile appeared on her face, her lipstick-coated red lips looking incredibly sensual under the ambiguous lighting. She smiled and said, "The Lou family is truly surprising! Lou Dian, do you want this oasis? As long as you're with me, this oasis is yours."
Then she glanced at the person he was protecting in his arms like a treasure and added, "With your siblings' abilities, plus the Qin family's support, I can make you stand at the peak of this apocalyptic world."
