108: Chapter 108: Is it yours to steal?

At that moment, Qian Dong and Yu Wenyu, both Wood-type Ability Users, saw the vines suddenly appear on the ground, their pupils dilating imperceptibly.

"Brother, we've got work to do!" Qian Dong whistled.

Just as the two were about to make a move, Qi Yin gently raised her hand to stop them, a playful arc curling at the corners of her lips.

"Why use a sledgehammer to crack a nut? It's about time I stretched my muscles."

After resting for a day, she was feeling rather bored. Since some entertainment had been delivered to her doorstep, it would be a waste not to take advantage of it.

Xiao Sinian crossed his arms and led the two of them to step back consciously, clearing enough space for Qi Yin.

Qi Yin didn't use any Supernatural Ability. She stretched her neck, and with empty hands, walked straight toward the Black-Robed Person who was a Wood-type Ability User.

"If you won't drink the toast, you'll be forced to drink the forfeit!"

The Black-Robed Person let out a low shout and waved both hands simultaneously. Several purple vines with sharp thorns burst from the ground, lashing straight toward Qi Yin's feet.

Qi Yin clicked her tongue: "Tsk, these puny little roots don't even measure up to half of our Dongzi's. How dare you?"

With a seemingly casual step, Qi Yin shifted her body, precisely dodging all the vines.

"How, how is this possible?"

The Black-Robed Person was stunned. There wasn't a single trace of Supernatural Ability fluctuation on the woman before him; how could she possibly dodge his attack?

Before his astonished eyes, Qi Yin closed the distance. Her right hand shot out like lightning, clamping onto his wrist. With a pull and a twist, she delivered a lightning-fast knee strike, slamming hard into his abdomen.

"Ugh, ah!"

The Black-Robed Person hadn't even seen her move clearly. He only felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and then his entire body was sent flying uncontrollably into the air, swung around by Qi Yin like a sack of rotten potatoes.

Then, he was slammed heavily onto the concrete floor, sprawling out in a pathetic heap. His cloak fell open, revealing an ugly face flushed purple.

Qi Yin let out an "Eh," genuinely shocked.

How could someone be this ugly?

The Black-Robed Person's face was covered in dark blue scars, with red veins bulging out; he looked just like a monster.

She suddenly had a hunch. Under the hoods of those other Black-Robed Persons, could every one of them have a face like this?

The Black-Robed Person seemed to realize that Qi Yin was disgusted by his face. Ignoring the pain, he hurriedly pulled his hood back on.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye. By the time the other Black-Robed Persons and Tian Zining's group reacted, their leader was already lying on the ground.

And Qi Yin simply shook her wrist, her gaze sweeping over the terrified crowd before landing on the pale-faced Wang Hui and Tian Zining's group.

"Listen well: this place belongs to me, Qi Yin. I can occupy it because I have the ability to hold it."

She kicked the limp Black-Robed leader at her feet with her long leg, grinding her heel into him for good measure.

"If you don't have the ability to snatch it, then get lost. If you dare to be an eyesore again, next time, it won't just be your pride that gets shattered."

Wang Hui clearly couldn't believe it. As the strongest in their team, she had been defeated so easily by Qi Yin, whom she had always looked down upon.

"How could this be? When did this Little Bitch get so strong?"

Little Bitch, you might be able to beat one, but can you beat a whole group?

Wang Hui turned to the other seven or eight Black-Robed Persons and ordered them imperiously: "All of you, attack! If you don't kill this Little Bitch, don't even think about eating tonight!"

Tian Zining really couldn't watch this farce any longer.

With a livid expression, he kicked Wang Hui.

"Damn it, can you stop causing trouble, you troublemaker!"

It's just one Spatial Ability User, isn't it? Tian Zining really didn't believe he couldn't find a second one.

Wang Hui clutched her butt with one hand and her face with the other, her eyes filled with resentment.

"Tian Zining, be reasonable! This is the only warehouse nearby. If we let that Little Bitch take it, where are we supposed to spend the night? Wasn't I doing this for us?"

At this moment, a young teammate mocked her: "For us? I'm afraid it's because you're horny and want to throw yourself at every man you see."

He hadn't forgotten that one night, when he opened his eyes, he saw Wang Hui standing in front of his bed stark naked.

Her figure was nice, sure, but anything that comes knocking on your door like that is never good news. He wasn't interested.

"You..." Wang Hui was speechless from the retort. She turned her back and secretly plotted to give him one less piece of bread tonight.

Qi Yin didn't want to watch this farce anymore; she was starving.

She turned around and met the gaze of Xiao Sinian, who was watching the show, and raised an eyebrow.

"It's quiet now. We can eat."

Xiao Sinian patted her head, not sparing his praise.

"The strongest fiancée on the face of the earth!"

Here he goes again. Qi Yin rolled her eyes adorably and gestured to the people behind her.

The group marched imposingly to the rolling shutter door. Qi Yin didn't avoid Tian Zining and the others, reaching out to knock on the door panel in a rhythmic pattern.

Three seconds later, a keypad lock appeared on the door panel.

Tian Zining and his group, who had retreated in disgrace, watched as Qi Yin entered the password and performed an iris scan. The door, which they had bashed for two hours without leaving a single mark, clicked open!

The group of thirty or forty people marched inside, not sparing them a single glance.

Xu Yongning had one foot inside the warehouse but stepped back out, glancing at Wang Hui and Tian Zining speechlessly.

"See that? That's the correct way to open the door, idiots!"

This shelter, which I personally supervised for half a month to finish, is it yours? How dare you try to snatch it so blatantly?

Tian Zining: "..."

The interior of the warehouse was spacious. Although it had gathered some dust, the structure was intact and it was much warmer than outside.

Xu Yongning and Wang Tianyu were more familiar with the place. They led the others to spread out, check the corners, and set up the heaters.

Moran and the group of Old Professors, who weren't very familiar with them yet, glanced at Qi Yin sitting on the chaise lounge and Xiao Sinian, who was never more than three steps away from her, then poked Yu Wenyu.

"Xiaoyu, is that young lady the boss you mentioned? And who is that handsome Staring Freak next to her?"

Staring Freak? Yu Wenyu followed the direction she was pointing and saw Xiao Sinian.

"Teacher, the Staring Freak you're talking about is actually our boss. However, the one being stared at by the Staring Freak is the true person in charge!"

Along the way, he had come to understand that if Qi Yin said one, Xiao Sinian would absolutely never say two.

Professor Moran let out an "Oh," and said, "Well, the boss and the little fairy are quite a match."

The other Old Professors and Tan Zexi nodded in agreement.

After a busy day and a few fights, let alone Qi Yin, everyone's stomachs were already growling with hunger.

Fortunately, Qi Yin had previously stockpiled some rice, flour, canned goods, and frozen meat here, enough to feed dozens of people for quite a while. She didn't need to use her Spatial Ability, so there was no worry about exposing it.

"Anyone who can cook, don't just stand there, get to work!" Chen Quan called out, rolling up his sleeves and heading toward the oversized stove in the corner.

Lu Yanxiu also responded and went to help move things and assist.

Everyone wasn't the type to be pretentious; those who could help pitched in. The sounds of washing vegetables, cutting meat, and rinsing rice echoed through the warehouse, and the scent of food gradually filled the air.

Qi Yin, Lu Jinwen, Lei Jun, and the other girls, along with the Old Professors, were treated like royalty and just had to sit back, gossip, and watch.

However, to Qi Yin's surprise, Xiao Sinian actually went over to the stove.

She curled her lips and chuckled: "Yo, big boss, you can cook too?"
