Chapter 923 Just a Wood Element

Chapter 923: Chapter 923 Just a Wood Element

"Oh? Help?"

Lu Hao chuckled softly; these people surrounding the entrance didn’t look like they were here to help.

"Xiao Hao, you’re back!"

Lu Guanhai and Huang Yunxiang inside the house didn’t expect Lu Hao and the others to return so quickly today, but since Lu Hao and Su Jin had returned, they no longer worried.

Seeing Lu Guanhai and Huang Yunxiang holding Lu Wang and Lu Xi, the three understood why the family had just kept the door tightly shut — presumably, the whole family who went out to fight zombies hadn’t returned yet.

"Is this how you ask for help? What do you mean by blocking someone’s door?"

Lin Xiuyuan protectively asked, knowing his family’s safety was threatened, his fondness for these people immediately vanished.

"Are you the Heart Talk Team?"

The man in the gray coat now looked at the three, but Su Jin couldn’t be bothered with them as Lu Xi and Lu Wang had spotted them, reaching out and babbling "mom" and "dad."

"Xiao Jin, this team, I don’t know where they’re from, but they knocked on the door and asked to borrow our Mental Element Ability User for a few days. When we said no, they blocked the door and insisted on staying until we agreed."

Huang Yunxiang explained the situation clearly in a few sentences.

Su Jin felt relieved seeing Lu Xi and Lu Wang weren’t scared. "I understand, leave this to us," she said.

"Ladies and gentlemen, don’t get us wrong, we’re not hooligans; we just want to borrow someone briefly,"

A cheerful young woman stepped out and explained.

"Do you think our people are easy to borrow?"

Su Jin retorted.

"Hehe, we just heard the SS-level Heart Talk Team reputation, but it’s because of your strength and the Mental Element Ability User in your team that we..."

The woman’s words were interrupted by Lin Xiuyuan.

"And what? Do we know you? Isn’t this ridiculous?"

"Young man, don’t say that. We are all human and survivors; shouldn’t we help each other? We know you’re worried, but we assure you, after clearing out a mall with your Mental Element Ability User, we’ll return them to you,"

Li Xunyan patiently continued.

Their team, also refugees from the K Province base, stumbled upon this area and were thrilled to find many places still stocked with supplies. The vast Y Autonomous Region had few survivors, so they targeted a few malls. But those places were undoubtedly zombie hotspots, so when they heard the Heart Talk Team had a ’living map’ Mental Element Ability User, they became interested.

However, the reputedly formidable Heart Talk Team seemed hard to negotiate with, and the cold-faced man had already issued an eviction order.

"No borrowing, and you better not come back,"

Lu Hao said coldly, grateful they returned early today; who knows what these people would have done otherwise.

"We’re also trying to kill more zombies and contribute to humanity. Are you really not lending?"

The man in the gray coat’s face instantly changed.

"Not lending, not lending,"

Lin Xiuyuan waved them off, not even wanting to glance at this rabble.

"Think carefully. Our team has over forty people, and your Heart Talk Team only has ten,"

Li Xunyan said with a smile.

"Oh, dear! You’re so scary! But it’s quite a large group just to borrow one of our people. Tsk tsk, not very impressive, are you?"

Lin Xiuyuan’s words made Su Jin chuckle, even Huang Yunxiang found it satisfying to hear him push back occasionally.

But this angered the group, and people behind them began to voice criticism.

"We’re not keeping your people. The more friends we have, the easier future problems will be; wouldn’t we help you if you were in trouble?"

"We’ve come so many to plead, and you don’t give us any face?"

"If you’re really worried, you can come with us. We won’t harm your partner,"

"..."

Su Jin picked up Lu Xi and Lu Wang and went inside, returning alone shortly after. She nodded at the family outside, then looked at the group outside with a hostile gaze.

"I’m the Heart Talk Team leader. At no time will any member of the Heart Talk Team be lent to anyone else! What you’re doing is inciting a mob. If you don’t leave after three counts, don’t blame us for being impolite!"

Su Jin said coldly.

"Yan Zi, it’s said the Heart Talk Team leader is a Level Eight powerhouse. Maybe we should go back for today,"

A man stepped behind Li Xunyan, whispering.

"Haven’t you noticed? There are only five of them now, and two children inside. Are you willing to give up so many supplies? Besides, even if she’s a Level Eight, it’s just Wood Element,"

Li Xunyan naturally was unwilling to leave easily. If they could take one of the children hostage inside, the Heart Talk Team might have no choice but to lend someone.

"Exactly. If we can take that Mental Element Ability User..."

The man in the gray coat felt impatient, imagining an ever-reliable living map, they wouldn’t fear going anywhere.

A returning team had gathered to watch, mostly for entertainment value.

"Ignorance is terrifying; they dare provoke the Heart Talk Team,"

"What backwater place is K Province? They dare mess with SS-level people?"

Onlookers thought these people must be crazy; moralizing the Heart Talk Team wasn’t enough, now they vaguely intended assault.

"One, two, three..."

Lin Xiuyuan smiled, showing three fingers. Su Jin only gave them three seconds, clearly not intending to let them leave.

"So, you’re really not leaving?"

Su Jin smiled, determined that if she didn’t scare them off today, she’d never feel at ease leaving people at home again.

Using Wood Element Ability slowly, an intense oppressive force descended. Not only Li Xunyan and the group showed changed expressions, even the onlooking team sensed the overwhelming pressure!

Countless vines and green branches spread rapidly; within moments, everyone saw only green. In the next moment, Li Xunyan and the others found themselves in the dense greenery of a forest without entrance or end, dependent on the few light beams above for visibility.

"What is this?! An illusion?"

A man behind looked around in shock and shouted.

"It’s not an illusion! It’s real! She conjured a forest!"

Lu Guanhai had already set up a small bench at the door, watching with interest. Those people inside were probably doomed! Every leaf and branch in that closed forest was under Su Jin’s control, serving as her eyes and weapons.
