The people of Anping Base were shocked to see Lu Xing in this state. Apart from Mo Huaiyu, who remained rooted to the spot, others began to fearfully move away from him.
“Oh my, he’s a monster, he really is a monster!” cries rang out from the crowd, and most people’s attitudes towards Lu Xing made a complete 180-degree turn.
Cen Feng and Huang Fuyue looked on triumphantly at the scene before them; this was their original intention all along.
Huang Fuyue raised his hand and touched the necklace around his neck, boasting to the voice in his consciousness, the ancient immortal.
“I told you, human nature is the weakest link. For the sake of their own safety, the people of Anping Base will never tolerate Mo Huaiyu and those two monsters.”
The voice in the man’s consciousness fell silent for a while before sighing, “Indeed, humans are the most selfish and terrifying beings.”
At this moment, Lu Xing’s eyes were filled with panic, as if he truly was some unforgivable and terrifying creature.
If, at the beginning, when Lu Xing had just come out of the research institute and faced this fear and vigilance, he only felt puzzled and uncomfortable.
But now, after living with Bai Ren and Mo Yi for some time, Lu Xing had gained more emotional experiences and truly regarded Anping Base as his home. Although he still rarely ventured outside, seeing some of the people who feared him, whom he knew personally, Lu Xing felt sadness and pain for the first time.
A profound sense of sorrow welled up inside him. Why did he have to become a monster? Why did he have to be a being that everyone feared? Was there truly nowhere in this world where he could be accepted for who he was?
Seeing Lu Xing’s distress, Mo Huaiyu felt extremely worried, but because of the previous relationships between Lu Xing, Bai Ren, and herself, those people wouldn’t listen to her explanations even if she tried.
Meanwhile, Bai Ren became completely alert. Unlike Lu Xing, although he had disguised himself perfectly as a human and engaged in more social interactions, he didn’t have such a strong desire to be accepted by humans.
In his heart, humans were just humans, and Mo Yi was the only one who mattered to him. As long as Mo Yi accepted him, he wouldn’t care about what others thought.
However, Lu Xing’s exposure was indeed troublesome, as Bai Ren knew that Lu Xing’s exposure meant his own exposure as well.
Huang Fuyue had pointed out a problem, but it wasn’t just Lu Xing’s problem; it was his as well. Bai Ren had read the phrase “Different minds among different species,” and he was well aware of what lay ahead for him.
He had loved this place and wanted to live here forever. Now, it seemed that staying was no longer an option.
And then, someone, unknown from which direction, had already begun to throw stones at Lu Xing from a distance. The crowd couldn’t resist being incited, and as things developed, it was likely to get even more out of control.
Bai Ren’s eyes darkened as the vines swiftly spread out from the ground, showing signs of agitation. But he didn’t want to harm anyone indiscriminately. If it came to it, he would have to leave with Mo Yi.
Humans were inherently social animals. Would Mo Yi truly be willing to leave with him?
A sense of determination flashed through Bai Ren’s mind. If Mo Yi wasn’t willing, then he would have to forcibly take Mo Yi with him!
But just as Bai Ren’s mind harbored these frightening thoughts, unbeknownst to him, certain suppressed emotions in Mo Yi were nearing their breaking point.
Mo Yi watched as his teammates seemed unable to recover, and the people from Anping Base, whom he had protected, had already begun to insult and even attack Lu Xing and Bai Ren.
The scene before Mo Yi couldn’t help but remind him of his past experiences. It was all because they weren’t the same species, all because of their differences in birth. They had been minding their own business here all along, even discreetly using their powers to protect this base.
But what had it all amounted to?
Why did they have to endure this treatment?
Intense emotions surged within Mo Yi. When a stone was thrown towards Bai Ren, about to hit his partner, before Bai Ren could react, Mo Yi couldn’t bear it any longer. He raised his hand and caught the stone, then crushed it in his grip.

He won’t allow his partner to experience the same pain as he did!
“If any of you dare to touch him—!”
Mo Yi stood in front of Bai Ren, his eyes glowing red as he addressed the crowd.
Filled with disappointment towards this world, his grim expression resembled that of a malevolent spirit emerging from the depths.
Mo Yi’s appearance was too terrifying, causing the previously noisy crowd to fall silent, even startling Mo Huaiyu.
But the most anxious one was 006 in the sea of consciousness, because he sensed that its host’s power was on the verge of complete awakening.
In the previous world, it could be suppressed, but now, with Mo Yi clearly losing control of his emotions, if his innate soul truly awakened under these circumstances, this world, already full of holes, wouldn’t be able to bear it.
“Host, calm down, please calm down!”
006 shouted loudly, hoping to invoke Mo Yi’s rationality as he had done during the previous incident when Mo Yi almost lost control in front of the female lead.
However, Mo Yi couldn’t hear the voice in his consciousness at this moment. His innate soul had been suppressed multiple times, and now, after being stimulated, it had reached a critical point.
Mo Yi exuded a terrifying aura all over his body, even the humans standing close to him could feel the suppression, and they began to tremble uncontrollably.
But just then, Bai Ren beside him suddenly embraced him.
“Mo Yi.”
The man called out his name softly.
Bai Ren had been unsure if Mo Yi would fully stand by his side, but now, Mo Yi had stood up for him, willing to oppose everyone.
Initially, Bai Ren’s uneasy heart was calmed down, filled with gratitude and satisfaction. But then, he noticed that something was wrong with his beloved.
That terrifying aura was something no human could possess!
Though he didn’t know what had happened, his subconscious seemed to tell him that if he didn’t stop Mo Yi, something very bad would happen.
So, he immediately hugged Mo Yi and called out his name.
Wrapped in the familiar embrace, feeling the warmth emanating from his partner’s body, the young man, who had been on the brink of losing control, miraculously began to calm down bit by bit.
Although the terrifying aura weakened, his innate soul still awakened to some extent.
Fragmented images flashed through his mind, too fast for Mo Yi to grasp.
Just like many canines, although they had sharp fangs and fierce combat abilities, they would always restrain their sharp claws and teeth in front of their loved ones.
“Bai Ren.” Mo Yi’s hand reached out, finding Bai Ren’s arm and gripping it tightly.
“I will protect you.”
Mo Yi’s voice was soft, but Bai Ren felt the weight of his words.
This was Mo Yi’s attitude, but more importantly, it was his promise.
Bai Ren suddenly smiled. Even if he was a monster, so what? With Mo Yi treating him like this, even if Bai Ren died in here, his life would have been worthwhile.
Of course, he wouldn’t die.
At least not today, not now.
Thinking of this, Bai Ren gently asked the person in his arms, “Mo Yi, are you willing to leave here with me?”
“Of course, I am willing!”
Mo Yi answered without hesitation. In this world, wherever he went, as long as Bai Ren was there, it would be his home.
Mo Yi’s answer made Bai Ren laugh heartily. They looked at each other, their eyes filled only with each other.
Then, Mo Yi raised his head and looked at Mo Huaiyu and Lu Xing. The current situation was definitely unfriendly to them as well.
So, he took the initiative to extend an invitation, saying, “Sister, Lu Xing, would you like to leave with us? We’ve been guarding this place for so long, but today I finally see it clearly.
Even if Bai Ren and Lu Xing are not human, so what? If it weren’t for them just now, those monsters would have broken through the gate long ago. Do you really think you could have held out until now? Since this place cannot accommodate us, let’s leave.”
What kind of nonsense tasks, what kind of rubbish base, he didn’t want to stay anymore.
He wanted to do good deeds, but he wasn’t a saint, and he wasn’t even human. He wouldn’t run around for people who weren’t worth it.
Since they were not welcome here, he could naturally build his own base. He believed in his own strength and trusted his partner’s abilities.
“I, we…” Mo Huaiyu hesitated at the words, but seeing the tired look in her brother’s eyes, she felt a pang of heartache.
“No, you can’t leave!” Just as Mo Huaiyu was wavering, Xiao Yingzi suddenly rushed out and shouted.
“Captain, Sister Mo, you can’t leave! If you leave, what am I going to do?” The little girl cried.
In the apocalypse, she had lost all her relatives, and she had survived only because the original owner of Mo Yi’s identity had saved her. Now, hearing that both Mo siblings were going to leave, Xiao Yingzi felt like she was about to lose the most important people in her life again!
“Do you people have no conscience? If it weren’t for Sister Mo, would this base have developed into what it is now? Wasn’t it the captain who has been leading the security team to protect everyone?”
“You heartless bunch of animals! Captain, Sister Mo, don’t leave. I believe in you! I believe that Bai Ren and Lu Xing must be good people! You helped me carry things before, and you even shared snacks with me. If you leave, I don’t want to stay here either. I want to go with you!” The little girl sobbed uncontrollably.
Then Old Luo stepped forward and shouted, “Yeah, this damn place, I’m not staying either! Brother, have you forgotten that the captain saved your life? Li Zi, the place you’re living in now, was found by Sister Mo. And Old He, don’t you dare hide from me!
You have the nerve to throw stones? Have you forgotten who bought you food every day when you couldn’t afford it? It was the captain who used his own credits! You heartless bastards!”
Old Luo walked over to Xiao Yingzi and patted her shoulder. “Xiao Yingzi, don’t cry. I also trust the captain. Let’s go together! I won’t treat you as a little girl anymore. I admit it, apart from when I was cross-dressing, you’re the prettiest.”
“Big Brother Luo!” Xiao Yingzi looked at Old Luo with teary eyes, full of gratitude.
“That’s right, Captain, I’m going with you too!”
“Yeah, this damn place, I’m out!”
“Damn it, it’s all nonsense. If Bai Ren and Lu Xing were really dangerous, I would have been dead long ago. Last time on a mission, I almost got caught by monsters, but it was Bai Ren who saved me. I don’t believe he would harm humans!”
Immediately, countless people stood up and decided to leave with the Mo siblings. Most of them had been beneficiaries of the Mo siblings’ kindness, including Liang San, who although had been beaten by Mo Yi.
At first, perhaps shocked or hesitant because of Bai Ren and Lu Xing’s identities, but now they had made a decision that truly didn’t go against their conscience.
And their numbers quickly exceeded those remaining, even including most of the security guards who had fought alongside Mo Yi, except for a few scattered individuals, everyone chose to stand with Mo Yi and his companions.
“You, how come all the members of the security team are leaving! If you leave, who will protect us?”
Someone, noticing the situation was not right, anxiously questioned them.
Old Luo, with a sarcastic smile on his face, replied, “Now you also remember who was protecting you before? I thought you bunch of pig brains had forgotten everything.”
The person was left speechless, his face flushing red under Old Luo’s rebuke.
The people from the Dahe Base, who had initially kept their distance to watch the show, hoping to benefit from the situation, were now witnessing a completely unexpected turn of events.
Even Huang Fuyue’s expression, which had been relaxed, became serious as he loudly addressed the people opposite, “What’s wrong with you? Don’t you care about their deception towards you? Those two are monsters, not even human, and yet you…”
“Stop talking nonsense! If it weren’t for you, none of this would have happened!”
Old Luo’s irritable temperament immediately interrupted Huang Fuyue’s words.
Bai Ren glanced around at the people standing beside them, blinked, and then suddenly spoke up, “Lu Xing and I were born in the research institute, but unlike those brainless monsters wandering outside, we truly never intended to harm humans.
The reason those monsters couldn’t approach the entrance was because Lu Xing used his ability to suppress them.
Speaking of which, Lu Xing actually used to live in the Dahe Base before. They kept him captive and restricted his freedom. Later, he followed Cen Yushu here, and when he met me, he felt that life here was good, so he secretly stayed.”
With that, Bai Ren patted Lu Xing’s shoulder.
“Hey, change back to how you looked the first time you came here.”
Lu Xing obediently complied. As he transformed, he retained his facial features but quickly morphed into a tall and burly man.
Then, Bai Ren pulled up the cap behind him. Immediately, someone who had received guests from the Dahe Base before exclaimed, “I remember now, isn’t this the same guy who came with Cen Yushu and the others?”
“Yeah! That guy was so strange, it’s hard not to notice him. But didn’t the Dahe Base say that the monsters colluded with the Mo siblings? How come this guy was initially from there?”
Some lies simply couldn’t withstand scrutiny. People began whispering to each other, genuinely contemplating the situation.
Then, Bai Ren turned to Huang Fuyue , wearing an innocent expression. “Speaking of which, why did so many monsters suddenly appear this time? We don’t know either.
But this guy is really strange. He suddenly disappeared out of thin air before. Now that he’s back, those brainless monsters have appeared too.”
That’s right! Turn it all back on those shit-stirrers!
Thank you for the update.
I was a bit worried that they wouldn’t be able to resolve this situation quickly. I’m glad
Am I the only one who’s blood gets boiling facing such hypocrites? It’s so upsetting! 👹
Thank you for the chapter!
