"There are five more people coming," Yao Ran informed the man as they passed.
Hearing this, he nodded. "Understood."
One of the men greeted them and then led them to Yuan Rihui, who was waiting in the second-floor living room.
Noticing his exhausted face, Yao Ran asked with concern, "What happened to you?"
Yuan Rihui sighed and replied, "Just a little bit sleep-deprived. Those gang members have been giving us a hard time these past two days."
Realizing that something more serious had happened to him, Yao Ran sat on the couch across from him and asked, "What did they do?"
Clenching his fists, Yuan Rihui explained angrily, "They have been sending people to steal our supplies repeatedly. If we hadn't recruited a lot of combat ability users beforehand, we might all be dead by now."
Yao Ran frowned at his words. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Could it be because you delivered supplies to Captain Li two days ago?"
Yuan Rihui nodded grimly. "Yes. I ran into several groups of robbers that day. I expected trouble, but I didn't expect them to team up. Their constant attacks have left us with no proper rest."
Noticing the heavy dark circles under everyone's eyes, Yao Ran thought for a moment. Then she retrieved a 50-liter water container from her space and said, "Distribute this among your ability users. Each person should only drink one glass."
Yuan Rihui's eyes lit up at the sight of the water container. He looked at the clear liquid inside the water container and asked excitedly, "Miss Yao, what is this? A new potion?"
Yao Ran nodded and lied without blinking an eye. "Something like that. It can restore ability users' energy, replenish stamina, and heal wounds."
At her words, everyone present, including Long Yu's five brothers, who had just arrived, looked at her in astonishment.
After a moment of shock, Yuan Rihui suddenly stood up from the couch and hurriedly poured a cup of lake water. Without saying a word, he drank it all in one gulp.
Seeing this, the others stared at him without blinking. A few seconds later, one of his men cautiously asked, "Brother Yuan, how... how is it?"
Yuan Rihui placed the empty cup on the low table, turned to look at Yao Ran, and said, "Miss Yao, I never thought you had this kind of trump card hidden."
Yao Ran smiled. "Now you know."
Yuan Rihui laughed and then said excitedly, "Everyone, come and get your share! Recover your energy and pay those bastards back for what they've done to us!"
"Yes, Brother Yuan!"
Seeing how energized they were, Long Yu said to Yao Ran, "They might not need our help."
When the other five members heard this, they exchanged glances before the tall man suggested, "Captain, how about we scout the area first? From the drone feed, it looks like those people brought at least a hundred men."
Hearing this, Long Yu nodded to the tall man and said, "Alright. Then you will take the lead."
Ma Benshun accepted the order and said, "Yes, Captain."
After they left, Long Yu stood up and said, "Brother Yuan, we will go out and deal with those people first. Take this time to recover and get some rest."
Yuan Rihui nodded. "Alright. Those people are very cunning. Be careful when fighting them." "Understood."
With that, Long Yu carried Yao Ran and flew out from the second-floor balcony.
Watching them disappear into the darkness, one of the men couldn't help but comment, "It's amazing that wind element ability users can fly like that. I thought they could only provide support."
Overhearing this, Yuan Rihui chuckled and said, "Not all wind element ability users can fly."
Recalling the conversation he overheard in the trading market before, Yuan Rihui added, "I remember you need to have enough energy to control the wind and float in the air. If you want to fly, you must perfectly master the control of the wind element. This is not an easy task."
"Also, Brother Long is a combat-type ability user. I once saw him kill a large group of deformed monsters in a single move. You should be careful with your words in the future." Hearing this, the man nodded, though he still didn't entirely believe Yuan Rihui's words. Unaware of their discussion, Long Yu flew to the outer district and hovered in the air. From above, he and Yao Ran could see several small groups sneaking into the villa area.
"They didn't even bother with the other villas. It looks like they came specifically for Yuan Rihui." Yao Ran said after observing them.
"Yes," Long Yu responded, scanning the people below. After a brief silence, he added, "There are three among them who are at least as strong as A Xuan."
Hearing this, Yao Ran raised her eyebrows with interest. "For them to be this strong without the assistance of my lake water, they must have remarkable talent."
Long Yu thought for a moment and shook his head. "I don't think so. Their energy fluctuates too much-it's very unstable."
While they were discussing the ability users' unstable energy, one of the three suddenly looked up. The man pointed to Long Yu and shouted, "Someone's up there!"
At his shout, the others paused briefly before shooting their abilities toward Long Yu and Yao Ran. Before the attacks could reach them, Long Yu controlled the wind and smoothly dodged all their attacks.
Seeing this, the man cursed and commanded, "Bring them down!"
A few seconds later, three wood element ability users shot vines toward them.
Yao Ran sneered at the sight and calmly raised her hand. While Long Yu dodged the vines, she used her water element energy to sense the blood flowing inside the enemies' bodies.
After identifying the subtle differences between water and blood, Yao Ran's eyes flickered with murderous intent, and the corners of her lips curved upward.
Opening her palm, she playfully asked, "A Yu, do you want to watch fireworks?"
