Chapter 354: I’ll Be Waiting for You Outside the Base
The atmosphere in the bar was tense, on the verge of conflict.
The heavy door was pushed open by someone.
As it opened, a cold wind rushed in, lowering the temperature inside the bar.
Several people arrived one after another.
Leading the group was a stern middle-aged man, his messy hair dancing in the wind like a dark flame.
With cold eyes, he glanced at everyone in the bar, then silently walked over to the table where Liu Xiao and Luo Yan were sitting, pulled out a chair, and sat down.
Liu Xiao was surprised at first, then he pushed his glasses and chuckled, saying, “What wind has blown Captain Ye Yu here.”
The man called Ye Yu did not respond.
A chubby man behind him, with a big smile on his face, said, “It’s all because of you, Mr. Liu, causing such a stir. Our captain couldn’t relax, so we had to come and see what’s going on.”
The chubby man approached Luo Yan, extended his hand, and said cheerfully, “Wang Jingyao from Silver Bay Base Enforcement Team, nice to meet you.”
Luo Yan looked at his hand, did not move, but a voice came from his mask, saying, “Red Ghost.”
“So, you are Mr. Red Ghost. Nice to meet you.”
After speaking, the chubby man looked at his own captain.
The Enforcement Team Captain Ye Yu raised his hand and gently tapped on the table.
Then Fatty Wang understood, “The captain means it’s best for everyone to get along. If something happens, no one will benefit.”
He turned back and called out to the old man who was hiding in a corner with very little presence, “Do you agree with this, Master Rong?”
The person called ‘Master Rong’ twitched his face, then slowly walked over with his hands behind his back, “I am old and can’t handle much excitement, please be kind.”
“Let’s give face to our base law enforcement team, give face to Captain Ye Yu, talk nicely, harmony is important.”
“What do you think?”
Although these words were said to the three of them, the old man looked at Liu Xiao. He was very skillful in handling the situation, not offending anyone in his words. Finally, his gaze fell on Liu Xiao to give him face, indicating that the key to this matter was with Liu Xiao.
Liu Xiao was very pleased, smiled, and looked at the captain of the law enforcement team, “Let’s not dwell on past issues today. I’ll go along with it for the sake of Ye Yu captain and Master Rong.”
Fatty Wang breathed a sigh of relief, not sure if it was true or false.
But at this moment, Liu Xiao looked at Luo Yan again, “Leave quickly before I change my mind.”
“Go back to Qingyang and flatter Yu Qiushui. Maybe if you please that woman well, she will speak up for you.”
This time, Captain Ye Yu, Wang Jingyao the fat man, and the bar owner Master Rong.
Everyone turned pale.
“Go away!”
Next to the bar counter, the fierce-looking bald Yu Bai suddenly smashed a glass on the ground.
“Get lost!”
“Go away quickly!”
“Get out!”
Shouting and cursing, all directed at Luo Yan, like a raging tide trying to engulf him.
Luo Yan, as if not hearing, with Liu Xiao’s figure reflected in his mask’s red pupil, said lightly, “I’ll be waiting for you outside the base.”
After speaking, he drifted away.
There was a lot of whispering and cursing behind the door.
It was only when the door closed that Master Rong truly let go, he looked at Liu Xiao and a look of anger flashed in his eyes.
Liu Xiao also looked surprised for a moment, but he kept smiling, stood up, bowed to Ye Yu and Master Rong, and took his leave.
Back in his residence, he looked at the calligraphy on the wall and chuckled, “That Red Ghost really knows how to endure, enduring such humiliation and not making a move.”
Yes.
Just now in the bar, he deliberately provoked Luo Yan.
If Luo Yan couldn’t control himself and acted out, then he would have a reason to suppress him, and could also drag the base enforcement team and forces like Master Rong into trouble.
By using these forces to strengthen his own power, he could eliminate Red Ghost in one fell swoop and get rid of future troubles.
Unfortunately, Luo Yan controlled himself and didn’t give him a chance.
Bald Yu Bai touched his head and said, “The law enforcement team is like a bunch of dogs with keen noses. Wherever we go, they follow us. Annoying.”
Liu Xiao calmly said, “We have four mechas in the base, while Silver Bay Base only has a few mechas. I would be nervous too.”
“We don’t need to worry about the law enforcement team. As long as we don’t give them any handle to catch us, we can do whatever we want. The law enforcement team can only turn a blind eye.”
Yu Bai smirked and asked, “Boss, when are we going to take down Red Ghost?”
Liu Xiao glanced at him and said, “We don’t need to bother with that kid.”
“We should eat, drink, and have fun in the base.”
“Let that kid outside feel the cold wind from the northwest.”
“This is our home turf, Red Ghost is just a visitor. How long do you think a visitor can stay outside the base?”
“If he can keep calm now, I don’t believe he can keep calm like this all the time.”
“Whenever he is anxious, he makes mistakes. I will guide him further to create a conflict with the base.”
“That way, we don’t even have to take action, the base will be destroyed by him.”
“Even if we can’t destroy him, we can still weaken him greatly. Then we can take advantage without risking our lives like we would if we fought him now, isn’t that much better?”
Yu Bai chuckled, “You’re smart, so shall we wait then?”
Liu Xiao nodded, “Wait.”

Outside the base, Luo Yan arrived at an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city.
In a cluttered warehouse, Luo Yan met Wei Junyi, Guan Peng, and others.
“Mr. Red Ghost is back!” Guan Peng welcomed Luo Yan warmly and handed him a bowl of hot meat soup.
Luo Yan didn’t rush to drink it, took it and said, “I just saw Liu Xiao in the base.”
Wei Junyi said solemnly, “Captain, you’re taking a risk. You should take us with you.”
Guan Peng nodded, “Yes, more people mean we can support each other if something happens.”
Luo Yan replied calmly, “It’s okay. Even if something happens, I am confident I can escape.”
With his special abilities like ‘Dragon Transformation,’ his ‘Original Soul shadow,’ and many other powerful skills.
Even if his opponents were strong, Luo Yan was confident in being able to protect himself.
After all, this is the ground base, there aren’t many experts or strong people on the surface.
“Also, this is the only way to test the base’s attitude.”
“Just like earlier, I was at a disadvantage, but even so, the base didn’t stand with Liu Xiao.”
“It seems like the relationship between Silver Bay Base and Liu Xiao is very tense.”
“I arranged to meet Liu Xiao outside the city to settle things, but he probably won’t come.”
“Even if the relationship with the base is tense, this is still his home turf.”
“If I were him, I would leave Red Ghost outside the city, take advantage of the situation.”
“Wait until this outsider is anxious, impatient, makes a mistake, then target them.”
“So, next Liu Xiao will probably lay low, we’ll know in two or three days.”
Guan Peng said, “What if Mr. Liu doesn’t leave the city? We can’t just barge in, can we?”
Luo Yan laughed a little.
Lifting a corner of his mask, taking a sip of broth, he replied evasively, “When I was young, I read a story called ‘The Crow Drinks Water’.”
