Chapter 5172: 5.0924 Urgency

That guy's earnest expression, begging for a beating, was truly both amusing and irritating.

Qiao Mu looked down at the pillow on her lap. "You think it's you?" What shady thing has this guy done? With that guilty little expression, as soon as he stepped in, he thought Qiaoqiao was beating him? He probably really did something stupid.

"What did you do today?"

"I didn't do anything!" Mo Lian quickly looked at his wife with an open and honest expression, taking her small hand and rubbing it against his chest. "Qiaoqiao, if you don't believe me, feel it. Your husband's heart is beating passionately for you. I wouldn't dare to hide anything."

Qiao Mu twitched her lips, expressionlessly withdrew her hand, and pounded the pillow. "Do you know? That person escaped!"

"Who, who escaped?"

"Mu Qingya. Huang He sent me a message via mechanical bird today, saying she was rescued."

"Snow Island has also been torn apart, it seems my position as island master is at its end!"

Mo Lian: "..."

His wife was upset about her island master position being over, not about him coming home late.

"Who rescued Mu Qingya? Does Huang He know?"

"Huang He messaged that those people didn't move like ordinary people; they all seemed to be special ability speedsters."

"They didn't directly conflict with the island's army; instead, they rescued the person through a surprise attack and then withdrew."

The little stoic said angrily, "Although our people killed several speed ability users, there wasn't enough time for a large-scale search."

"This group came quickly and retreated even faster; they left right after rescuing the person."

"Didn't you already order Huang He to deal with that woman?" Mo Lian recalled this and couldn't help but be surprised.

"Huang He said there was a slight breakthrough in the antidote. They had originally planned to test it on Mu Qingya again, who knew that..." Qiao Mu clenched her fist. "However, with her damaged body, she probably won't live long even after being rescued. I just don't understand what Tianyun is after."

"From my understanding, Tianyun wouldn't rescue a useless cripple. So, this Mu Qingya must still have some use."

"But Huang He also mentioned in his message that Mu Qingya's body is peculiar. Several previous experimental corpse puppets have already died. Conversely, this Mu Qingya has been tested with several antidotes and taken no less than a hundred types of medicine, but she can still barely cling to life."

"That means Mu Qingya might not just be a simple special ability mutated person."

Mo Lian took over Qiao Mu's words and continued to analyze, "Or perhaps, this Mu Qingya once took some high-level mutation pill from Tianyun? Her body might be undergoing self-transformation in ways we don't know?"

Qiao Mu was startled and sat upright, carefully pondering Mo Lian's words. She nodded seriously. "So she might not die immediately. As long as her body doesn't collapse, maybe she can rise again?"

"This is just our theory; it might not be entirely correct."

Mo Lian comfortingly held her hand. "After all, if Tianyun could truly produce such drugs that constantly forcefully refine the human body, it would be able to create more unkillable monsters and wouldn't continue to lie dormant."

At this point, the two looked at each other and suddenly said, "We need to get Huang He and the others back as soon as possible."
