173: Chapter 173 Every Move

Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing stepped off the shuttle, initially worried that the current temperature might cause burns.

However, seeing that Xiao Mei had already taken the first step off the vehicle without showing any discomfort, Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing became even more curious about the construction of this base.

Just how wealthy was this base to have built a massive glass dome over the roof, enclosing all the buildings inside?

Xiao Mei walked to the door of Number Twelve and bowed to Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing. "Welcome home, Venerables."

Although Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing desperately wanted to flee, they braced themselves and went inside.

Once indoors, the temperature was similar to the outside—a very pleasant climate. At this temperature, one wouldn't feel hot even while basking in the sunlight.

Instead, it gave one the feeling of being at the beach.

When the two entered the interior, they were instantly blinded by the decor before them.

The furniture was all extremely opulent European style, with every table and chair leg inlaid with intricate golden frames.

Moreover, the overall color scheme was incredibly harmonious; even the decorative paintings on the walls shared a unified palette.

"Venerables, this house features a design with a three-story small building plus a basement. The first floor is equipped with a living room, a dining room, and a Sun-drenched Beach Room."

Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing were clearly stunned when they heard about the beach room.

"Where is the Sun-drenched Beach Room?"

Ye Qingqing asked.

Xiao Mei had a smile on her face. "Venerables, I will take you there right now."

The two followed Xiao Mei's lead through the living room to a place resembling a balcony.

Stepping out from the living room, Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian saw a massive private pool, and by the poolside, there was actually sand...

Sunlight, a beach, waves... all it lacked was a cactus.

Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing suddenly felt that their imagination had been limited by poverty.

It turned out that even in the Post-Apocalyptic World, the life of the wealthy could be extravagant to such an extent.

One must know that under high-temperature conditions, water resources were currently an extremely scarce commodity.

Water-based Superpowers users were even revered as the most privileged Ability Users.

Having an Ability User by one's side meant that for the near future, there would be no worries about water resources or supplies.

But now, in this house, there was a huge swimming pool, and the water inside looked perfectly clear.

Xiao Mei continued to explain to Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing from the side.

"The water in this pool is refreshed daily; you two need not worry about the water quality."

Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian's lips twitched. If it weren't for the fact that Ye Qingqing had a space and didn't lack water,

then seeing and hearing that so much water was used just for a pool would have taught them a harsh lesson about this base.

Furthermore, the water in this pool had to be changed every day.

This made both Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian feel a bit of heartache for the waste.

"Venerables, please follow me this way to the second floor."

Although the house didn't seem to have many rooms, the space was incredibly vast.

The size of the living room alone was as large as the entire area of the small Villa where Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian had lived in the Official Base.

The layout of the second floor was completely different from the first.

One could even say the second floor was a place dedicated to leisure and refined tastes.

Upon reaching the second floor, they were greeted by a large white piano surrounded by a circle of sofas, looking like a place for entertainment and relaxation.

There were four rooms in total on the second floor.

When Xiao Mei opened the first room, Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian's ears turned red.

Because that room was packed full of various props.

Things like small leather whips and handcuffs were the most basic items.

Ye Qingqing even saw a contraption for tying someone to the ceiling.

Before Ye Qingqing could get a full look, her eyes were once again covered by Huo Sixian.

"Don't look, you'll get sties."

When Huo Sixian said this, his voice was even trembling slightly.

He truly hadn't expected that this room would be entirely filled with...

The second, third, and fourth rooms on the second floor were all filled with such things.

The only difference was probably the themes.

Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian couldn't help but feel that the person who designed this house might be a bit mentally unstable.

The layout of the third floor was much more normal.

After going up to the third floor, there was first a small reception room, followed by a set of large double doors.

Pushing the doors open revealed another small reception room, except this one had a sofa and a fireplace.

To the left of this reception room was the bedroom, where a massive three-meter bed sat prominently in the center.

It was quite exaggerated.

Moreover, the design of that bed was extremely luxurious.

Ye Qingqing had never seen such a lavish bed.

Xiao Mei explained again from the side, "Venerables, the design of this bed utilizes a fully automated system."

When Xiao Mei wanted to say more, Huo Sixian directly interrupted her introduction. "Fine, we get it, no need to explain."

After being interrupted, Xiao Mei still maintained a smile and continued to lead Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian to tour the remaining areas.

To the right of that small reception room was the bathroom, but this bathroom was also very... explicit...

The bathtub was completely transparent, and the shower stall was also entirely transparent.

Looking at this scene, Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian felt their faces flush with embarrassment.

This definitely wasn't a proper base; this was like a themed hotel room!

Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian walked downstairs with stiff bodies.

Now only the basement remained to be toured.

However, Ye Qingqing and Huo Sixian felt that since the three floors above were already shocking enough, the basement would only be even more mind-blowing.

Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing didn't need Xiao Mei to lead the introduction anymore.

If Xiao Mei continued her tour, Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing would want to run away.

Everything felt uncomfortable.

"Xiao Mei, do you usually live here?"

Hearing Huo Sixian's words, Xiao Mei blinked. "No, Venerable. There is an intercom in the living room; I will appear whenever you have a need. Normally, I won't disturb you two."

"Alright, you can leave now."

Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing only hoped Xiao Mei would leave quickly; they needed time to process what they had seen and heard.

Only after Huo Sixian and Ye Qingqing saw Xiao Mei leave with their own eyes did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Just as Ye Qingqing was about to speak, she was stopped by Huo Sixian.

He signaled behind him with his eyes.

Only then did she follow Huo Sixian's gaze and look behind him.

At first glance, she didn't notice anything unusual, but when Ye Qingqing observed carefully, she found it.

Behind Huo Sixian, there seemed to be an extremely tiny camera monitoring their every move.
