Chapter 67: 059 Calculation (Third Update)_2 Chapter 67: 059 Calculation (Third Update)_2 If it weren’t for that, the man earlier wouldn’t have treated Fang Yuxin so terribly. Ever since it was discovered that Wood Element Superpower Users had healing abilities, people naturally started treating them differently. A healer who could mend wounds and save lives was, naturally, someone you wouldn’t want to offend if possible.
Qiu Yiming’s situation was harder to handle; he was now the captain of the Superpower Team, with many people under his command. To win over his team, he needed not just strength but also to pay attention to his members’ demands. After thinking it over, he said to Fang Yuxin in a low, deep, magnetic and sensuous voice, which was incredibly attractive, “Xinxin, why don’t you give it a try? Think of it as helping me, okay? Don’t turn me down, alright? Do it for me.”
His voice was so soft that other soldiers didn’t hear it, but Fang Mengyao, who was relatively close by, heard everything clearly.
She glared fiercely at Fang Yuxin, like a resentful wife whose husband had been seduced by a vixen—with Fang Yuxin being that vixen! Yet, she forgot that Fang Yuxin was now Qiu Yiming’s official girlfriend! Even if Fang Yuxin really had a bad attitude toward him, it was perfectly justified and nothing to be ashamed of.
Fang Yuxin couldn’t reject Qiu Yiming’s request—they were still boyfriend and girlfriend, even discussing marriage—and his request was not excessive. Refusing would seem unkind. However, she wasn’t willing to be manipulated by Fang Mengyao so easily!
Thus, she replied, “I don’t see a problem myself, but I’ve healed people before and I don’t know how to proceed. What if something goes wrong?”
Upon hearing this, Qiu Yiming couldn’t help but think that it seemed Xinxin and her family hadn’t been injured before. He assured her, “No worries, I have a team member who also has the Wood Element Superpower. I’ll call him over to teach you.”
Fang Yuxin was then puzzled, “Then why are there still people getting injured?”
Qiu Yiming explained to her, “His superpower has recently awakened too, and he can only heal a limited number of people each time. His power has depleted and he’s currently absorbing a Crystal Core to recover, but he isn’t fully restored yet. If you could heal, please help them, it’s not good to carry injuries indefinitely. We have a mission tomorrow, we need them recovered quickly.”
Survivors in the Safe Zone were not abundant, and awakened superpower users were even fewer. Although he had recruited some people, many others weren’t willing to join or had joined others. Thus, the number of people he could rely on wasn’t high and many were injured from dealing with an excessive number of zombies today. If they couldn’t be healed by today, tomorrow’s mission would definitely be affected.
That was why he had approached Fang Yuxin.
Fang Yuxin nodded, “Then I’ll give it a try.” As she said this, she couldn’t help but add somewhat casually, “It’s a pity I’ve only awakened the Wood Element Superpower. I’m not sure how useful it will be. Unlike Xiao Yao who even awakened the Spatial System Superpower. She must’ve been a big help to you today, right?”
This comment caused many others to change their expressions. Qiu Yiming gave Fang Yuxin a stealthy glance, knowing she did it on purpose! The two of them had grown up together after all, and he was familiar with Fang Yuxin’s temperament. Since Fang Mengyao had deliberately schemed against her, she naturally retaliated.
But Fang Yuxin’s actions complicated the situation for him. He had kept Fang Mengyao’s Spatial System Superpower a secret from the others and had even used today’s resource collection as an opportunity to let Fang Mengyao stash away quite a bit! Now, it seemed this secret might not stay hidden!
He subtly observed his team members’ expressions and indeed saw some faces showing doubt, looking at Fang Mengyao.
Fang Mengyao hadn’t expected Fang Yuxin to say such a thing. After a moment of initial panic, she steadied herself and coldly said, “Sister Xin! Brother Yi Ming said that the matter of Spatial Superpower is of great significance and must not be disclosed carelessly. Even if you don’t like me, you shouldn’t divulge such critical information in public!”
This was essentially accusing Fang Yuxin of being petty and reckless.
But Fang Yuxin’s disposition was not something Fang Mengyao could shake. There was not a trace of panic on her face, only guilt as she said to Qiu Yiming, “I thought you would have told the team members about Xiao Yao’s ability. I didn’t expect you to have made such arrangements. I’m sorry.”
She was naturally strong-willed and rarely softened in front of Qiu Yiming, showing such a tender side to him. Although Qiu Yiming knew she was doing it intentionally, seeing her relent made it hard for him to reprimand her further. He then explained, “I really have many concerns. After all, there are very few Spatial System Superpower Users. If other survivors knew of Xiao Yao’s ability, they might harm her.”
Although his words served as an explanation to the team members, Qiu Yiming knew he would need to explain again later and provide a better reason. After finishing his explanation, he then had someone summon the team’s Wood Element Superpower User, Josh, to teach Fang Yuxin how to treat the injured, while also instructing others to move the supplies to the warehouse in the safe store.
Josh arrived quickly, a young man of decent appearance. He had been in the back of the truck absorbing a Crystal Core to recover, and upon learning that Qiu Yiming had found another Wood Element Superpower User for him to guide, he quickly followed.
Upon arrival, he started scrutinizing Fang Yuxin, his gaze critical and discerning. Having treated wounded numerous times, and because of his affinity to the Wood Element, his perception of energy and vitality was particularly sharp. However, upon seeing Fang Yuxin, he found her energy fluctuations to be exceedingly weak, almost nonexistent, and he didn’t hold her in high regard, thinking that even if she had awakened the Wood Element Superpower, she lacked competence.
Thus, he simply said coolly, “Follow me.” (To be continued. If you work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com), by casting a recommended vote or a monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
