Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 789 - 419 Distant Caravan

Bai Ye listened to Fang Yuxin’s words and subconsciously thought of Zhao Qiankun being betrayed, so he nodded in agreement. However, since outside wasn’t the place for talking, the three of them left first, found a secluded place, and Fang Yuxin deliberately concealed her figure, then returned with Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang to the small temporary living compartment.

Once back here, the three of them felt a slight relief. Although it was nothing more than the simplest and most basic place, they had somewhere to settle, and after entering Qingmu Spiritual Mansion, they would no longer have to worry about being spied upon.

Fang Yuxin first released her Spiritual Sense to perceive her surroundings. After confirming that no one was monitoring them, she immediately took out three puppet dolls, transformed them into their likeness, and then brought Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang into Qingmu Spiritual Mansion.

Once they were there, the three felt completely eased. Next, they began exchanging the intelligence they knew. Bai Ye and Fang Yuyang described the events that happened in Luyun County, whereas Fang Yuxin informed them that she had looted Zhao Qiankun’s research facility completely. In addition, she uncovered a shocking piece of news—Han Lingxi was having an affair with Yang Bo!

Han Lingxi was Zhao Qiankun’s woman, while Yang Bo was Zhao Qiankun’s confidant. Yet, these two were openly coming and going together when Zhao Qiankun led his team away from the base to attack Luyun County. It was clear that they had long been conspiring together. One could easily guess that Zhao Qiankun’s current misfortune was very likely orchestrated by them!

However, although the trio knew about this news, none of them planned to inform Zhao Qiankun. Zhao Qiankun had too many secrets, and dealing with him head-on to eliminate him wouldn’t be easy. It’s better to let them fight among themselves. Given Zhao Qiankun’s disposition, even if he discovered their plot this time, there would surely be others doing the same next time. But if he didn’t find out, these two certainly wouldn’t just give up and would eventually plot against Zhao Qiankun again!

Considering this, the three actually preferred that Zhao Qiankun didn’t discover Yang Bo and Han Lingxi’s scheme. After all, if these two could keep Zhao Qiankun occupied, it would also prevent him from overextending his reach outward.

However, the situation of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps was quite dire. Though Yang Bo and Han Lingxi were wary of Fang Yuxin’s presence this time and didn’t bring down the leadership, they targeted Bai Zhengyi. This resulted in catastrophic losses for the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, and after losing numerous third-level superpower users, no matter how united the remaining ones were, they couldn’t stand against Zhao Qiankun—unless a new person emerged to restrain him.

At this thought, Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang instinctively looked toward Bai Ye. Upon seeing their gaze, Bai Ye immediately felt overwhelmed and said, "I can’t do it. Many members of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps are people from the military or former soldiers. Even if I went, they wouldn’t be convinced by me." The main reason was that he saw the White Wolf Mercenary Corps as a huge headache. Taking over would not only mean dealing with internal conflicts but also constantly guarding against Zhao Qiankun, which meant exhausting both mind and energy.

Right now, he just wanted to go on adventures with Fang Yuxin and cultivate their relationship, not take on such a hot potato. As for the power of the White Wolf Mercenary Corps, he couldn’t care less and was not at all tempted.

Fang Yuxin had only thought about it casually, never intending for Bai Ye to stay at the Beishi Base, sorting through the complexities and jockeying for position with those people every day. When Bai Ye said this, she smiled with satisfaction and then said, "Such a large force as the White Wolf Mercenary Corps would surely attract many interested parties; let them scramble for it themselves."

Meanwhile, as the three were speaking, a long convoy had already entered the vicinity of Beishi, searching for the Beishi Base. The leader of this convoy was none other than their old acquaintances—Qiu Hongsheng and Qiu Yiming!

After Qiu Hongsheng and Qiu Yiming discussed, they first purchased some grain from nearby bases. Then, since Qiu Yiming was determined to come to the Beishi Base, Qiu Hongsheng could not dissuade him and had to bring his forces along.

Each safe base had high protection walls, visible from a distance. It didn’t take Qiu Yiming long to spot the Beishi Base. Subsequently, the entire convoy was excited. They had journeyed arduously towards the Beishi Base, encountering zombie hordes and attacks from Mutant Beasts and Mutated Birds along the way, which left them greatly pained. Some lacking strength or luck perished enroute and never made it here.
