Chapter 1557: Chapter 1555: Reaching an Agreement
"Whether youāre Number One or Carly, it makes no difference to me!" Ling Feng looked at Carly and said, "Tell me where Ling Yun is?"
Carly looked at Ling Feng with complex emotions. She wasnāt sure if Ling Feng was telling the truth, but she could sense his strength. If it wasnāt absolutely necessary, she didnāt want to oppose him!
"Alright, I can choose to believe you for now!" Carly said, "Follow me."
Ling Feng didnāt harbor any ill feelings towards Carly. She was just trying to survive, and Ling Feng, having come from the Divine Gate himself, naturally knew some of the Mad Doctorās methods, so he was willing to trust Carlyās words.
After finding Ling Yun, he was still in a state of unconsciousness. Ling Feng glanced at Carly.
Carly shrugged and said, "Heās just passed out, not seriously injured!"
Ling Feng nodded and then woke Ling Yun up.
As Ling Yun opened his eyes in a daze, he quickly said upon seeing Ling Feng, "Brother, Carly... Carly is Number One, you need to be careful!"
Ling Feng patted Ling Yunās shoulder, smiling, "I already know, and... Carly is not our enemy.
Ling Yun was bewildered, what was going on, Carly isnāt our enemy? But sheās Number One!
"Whatās the matter? You insisting on making me your enemy?" At this moment, Carlyās leisurely voice came from behind Ling Feng.
Ling Yun shivered when he saw Carly behind Ling Feng, and shook his head, "Of course not. If weāre not enemies, then thatās even better!"
Ling Feng took out a bottle of potion and handed it to Ling Yun, "This is the potion, drink it quickly, and control the Ghost-faced Devil Bug within you!"
Ling Yun stared blankly at the small blue potion bottle, which carried his hope for survivalāa hope that his brother brought to him!
"Brother, I..." Ling Yunās eyes turned red!
Ling Feng patted Ling Yunās shoulder, "Stop being sentimental, drink it quickly."
At this moment, Carly said leisurely, "If you want him to die quickly, then let him drink it now!"
Ling Feng turned around, "What do you mean?"
"I mean exactly what I said." Carly shrugged, "You really think just drinking it will be fine, right? You need to prepare many things. If he drinks it now, the Ghost-faced Devil Bug inside him will immediately feel threatened, and that would be the moment of no return!"
Ling Feng looked at Carly and suddenly smiled, "Alright, then Iāll leave it to you, is that okay?"
Carly snorted, "Why should I help him?"
"Well, consider it as doing me a favor. After all, weāre partners now!" Ling Feng said with a smile.
"Partners?" Carly muttered to herself, then glanced at Ling Yun, "Fine, seeing as Number Three usually looks so harmless, Iāll reluctantly help you!"
Saying that, Carly turned and left the room, "I need to look in the lab to see if I can still find anything from the experiment!"
After Carly left, Ling Yun looked at Ling Feng, "Brother, what exactly is going on? Carly is Number One, how... how is she with us?"
Ling Feng shrugged, "Is that so surprising? Although sheās Number One, thereās no life-and-death entanglement between us, and... sheās also a pitiful person."
"Pitiful?" Ling Yun said, confused.
Ling Feng didnāt explain. Someone willing to experiment on themselves for research, Ling Feng believed Carly was a pure researcher, but that didnāt mean she didnāt want to continue living. The Mad Doctorās methods destroyed all her efforts, something she could not tolerate!
In a way, Carly was just another pawn discarded by the Mad Doctor! Even though she had been involved in the modification of experimental subjects, Ling Feng still had a touch of kindness towards her in his heart.
Very soon, Carly returned with a large bag of stuff.
"Iām going to inject Number Three with the Experimental Potion, you step out first!" Carly said to Ling Feng unceremoniously.

Ling Feng shrugged and then turned to leave.
"Brother!" Even though Ling Feng had said Carly isnāt an enemy, Ling Yun still instinctively wanted to call out to Ling Feng, as he remained naturally wary of Carly.
"Donāt waste your breath!" Carly slapped Ling Yun on the back of the neck, and Ling Yunās eyes rolled back as he passed out again.
Outside, Ling Feng waited quietly. He was reflecting on the events of the past few days and pondering the purpose of this missionāto protect Carly!
Since Carly was Number One, no one on this island could threaten her anymore, so what did protecting her mean?
"Could there be other unknown dangers?" Ling Feng muttered to himself.
After an hour, Carly emerged from inside.
"How is Ling Yun?" Ling Feng asked eagerly.
"The injection is done; now it depends on his own fortune!" Carly said plainly, "Itās not so easy to wrest control from the Ghost-faced Devil Bug, you know? Back then, I had to endure immense pain to succeed!"
After saying this, Carly leaned silently against a nearby chair.
Ling Feng looked at Carly and asked softly, "Have you thought about your future?"
"The future?" Carly hesitated, then shook her head, "Who can say what the future holds, itās best to take it one step at a time!"
"Youāve plotted to destroy the lab here, the Mad Doctor wonāt let you off!" Ling Feng said gravely, "If you donāt mind, would you consider leaving with us?"
"Leave with you?" Carly looked at Ling Feng and then let out a light laugh, "I really donāt know where you, someone in the Mid Divine Sea Realm, get such confidence. Better let it be, Iām on my own. Itās better than having to take care of you burdens!"
Ling Feng felt a bit awkward; Carly actually looked down on him. Well, given his visible strength was indeed at the Mid Divine Sea Realm, but Carly... she should be at the Azure Sky Realm now?
She indeed had a right to be proud.
Ling Feng looked at Carly, "However, if we want to leave here, we must break the formation on this island. Is the formation control room here?"
Carly laughed, "I lied to you before. This is indeed the control room, but not the formation control room. As for the formation... I actually know the Method of Breaking Formations, the real Method of Breaking Formations!"
