She shouldn’t have even asked. Bai Meiyue looked at the fleet of cars that was following her and turned to look at Xiao Wu. "You do realise that I am not leaving the safe base, do you?"
"I know, but Boss Lei said that you are not allowed to leave the mansion without proper security. We are not ability users, so the least we can do is provide you with protection with our bodies. Worst comes to worst, we will shield you like a human shield if the situation calls for it," Xiao Wu said without missing a beat, and Bai Meiyue, who heard his solemn response, felt her heart clench. She only saved Xiao Wu and his underlings on a whim. She never expected them to turn so loyal toward her.
How about giving them crystal nuclei to cultivate? Ciyi spoke to Bai Meiyue when she sensed that her master’s thoughts were going awry. We can help them awaken; that way, they will not die.
Ciyi didn’t know much about the complex emotions of humans, but she did know that if someone died, then humans felt sad. Ciyi didn’t want her master to be sad, so she couldn’t help but suggest the only option that she knew of.
Bai Meiyue sighed while patting the dog in her lap. The little one thought it was simple, but cultivating without a base was not easy; she had sensed that Xiao Wu and the others had really weak spiritual energy, which proved that they would have a rather hard time awakening. But maybe she could indeed try? The last thing she wanted was for them to die. If they died protecting her, then she would really never be able to forgive herself.
She glanced at Meng Suisui behind her and noticed that the woman looked very different from how she did in the past. She was no longer hunchbacked, and her expression was quite calm and serene, like she knew the things were under her control.
Bai Meiyue nodded at the change in Meng Suisui and asked, "It seems like you found out what your powers are?"
"I am still learning, but yes," Meng Suisui replied softly. "I have found the nature of my powers."
She looked quite dissatisfied with the powers that she had awakened.
"Don’t look so down," Bai Meiyue told the woman. "No matter what kind of power you have awakened, as long as you have awakened powers, you are still better than most of the people who are living a life worse than death, all because they haven’t awakened." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
