Chapter 217 - Wei Liao and Xu Ning (1/2)

“It’s all up to you now, Wei Liao,” Xu Ning said, recalling that he would need Wei Liao’s help later on, going forward to pat Wei Liao on the shoulder.

Wei Liao looked as if he was overwhelmed by the action, happily going to the door and taking out a wire, as if he was performing a trick. In just a few moves, he managed to get the door open.

Xu Ning’s face turned serious and the group of people entered the house silently. It was completely dark, yet it wasn’t a challenge for an ability user like Xu Ning.

It was slightly blurry, but he could see everything. He made a hand gesture and Wei Liao took out a candle from his bag. Then, Xu Ning moved his hand and a little flame appeared, lighting the candle.

Just as they were about to make a move, they suddenly heard a rustling noise.

Xu Ning’s thick brows furrowed, wondering, ‘What’s going on? There must be someone in the living room!’

Xu Ning gave Wei Liao a look and Wei Liao took out a cleaver as he followed behind Xu Ning, moving towards the noise.

When they got closer, they realized a small person huddled in the corner. She seemed to have seen the candlelight, her small body trembling.

“Who are you and why are you in my house?” Xu Ning questioned, ready to form a fireball with his hand at any time.

“Ah, don’t hit me, don’t hit me!” the little person said in a clear and pleasant voice.

Xu Ning’s hand moved slightly, and he gave Wei Liao a look. After Wei Liao received Xu Ning’s signal, he went forward and squatted, then said gently, “Don’t be afraid, nobody is going to harm you. We are good people.”
