Dr. Zhao and Shao Qi ended up with more than half of their meat portions untouched. Since Zhou You began cooking, the logistics supply included raw meat. Upon taking the first bite, the little white tiger had even spit it out, seemingly thinking that roasted meat was more delicious. However, Zhou You paid no mind to it. When it got hungry, it would naturally eat the raw meat obediently.

That night, everyone retired to sleep early. The personnel on duty gathered around the campfire, speaking in hushed tones. "Who would have thought that it would get colder outside the mountains at night? How can anyone survive here if it's this cold? Don't they need to go out at night?"

"I heard that the fur of certain mutated beasts in the north is especially insulating. Those who are capable can naturally obtain it. Those without the capability just stay at home. Nights are quite dangerous!"

"I've truly grown weary of these precarious days. When we reach Yangcheng, I plan to leave the exploration team and find a more stable job. It's alright to be a bit tired and a bit poor. At least I won't have to face life and death every day." This journey has been too arduous. Every day, they must confront the threat of death. It's easy for one's resolve to waver.

"Well, who would willingly court danger during peaceful times? But this world doesn't allow people to be at ease, does it? Let's stop discussing this. I'm feeling a bit tired. Could a few of you help keep watch for a while?" The person said and then promptly collapsed onto the ground, eliciting hearty laughter from his companions. "Wang Jian'an, you're quite the delicate one, huh? Hahaha..."

"I'm feeling rather tired too..." One after another, people succumbed to sleepiness, and before long, the camp became eerily quiet. Only the occasional hooting of an owl disrupted the silence.

A group of figures dressed in black crept in, stopping beside the last vehicle. "Is this the one?" one of them asked in a hushed tone.

"Back to senior brother, the two aren't on the same vehicle. The kid that Master wants is on the middle medical vehicle, while the other old man is here. Which one should we capture first?"

"No need for nonsense. Why would we capture the old man? Let's go!" The group circumvented the guards and approached the medical vehicle. Someone kicked the guard lying in the middle of the road and arrogantly remarked, "These country bumpkins are too feeble. A bit of * and they're knocked out."

The senior brother warned, "Don't create unnecessary complications!"

Zhou You was deep in meditation and practice, while Shao Qi remained awake, staring at Zhou You, attempting to discern something from his expression.

Since returning from the cave, Zhou You hadn't been discreet about his martial arts skills in front of Shao Qi. However, Shao Qi had yet to fully gauge Zhou You's skill level, assuming him to be at a novice's level.

Suddenly, Zhou You opened his eyes, meeting Shao Qi's gaze. Simultaneously, both turned their attention to the window. Shao Qi smiled and said, "Who are these nocturnal visitors? They've found us so quickly."

He cheekily told Zhou You, "Forest beasts can be frightening, but the people out here are even scarier. You're so kind-hearted that you might not even realize if someone gnawed you to the bone."

Zhou You retorted, "Kindness has its recipients. People like Mr. Shao, for instance..." As they heard the sound of a lock being tampered with, they both sealed their lips, waiting to see what these intruders had in store.

The medical vehicle wasn't prominently positioned in the middle. Why did these people select this specific vehicle? The most valuable convoy vehicle, transporting supplies, was nearby.

"After we board, kill everyone except the kid Master wants." The senior brother issued the cold command.

"Senior Brother, after all the effort we've put in, are we really just capturing a single person? This team may seem unremarkable, but there are women and valuables. Why not consider..."

"Shut your mouth! Don't go looking for trouble where there's none. Where on earth do women not exist?"

The speaker had been monitoring this team, and his attention was immediately drawn to Li Yunxi. Beautiful yet wild, she embodied his favorite type.

However, the Senior Brother's authority was undeniable, especially when the Master was mentioned. The man didn't dare be audacious. Besides, there would be plenty of opportunities in the future.

The car door was pried open. The interior was pitch-black, but the intruders wore night vision goggles. They quickly located the positions of the three people in the vehicle.

"Ha, one old, one crippled, one disabled. Is it a bit excessive for all five of us to make a move?" The newcomers laughed upon surveying the scene inside the car. If there weren't guards outside, any one of them could easily seize the individuals.

"Which of these two is the one Master wants?" The Senior Brother pointed at Zhou You and Shao Qi. The two were of similar age, but Zhou You appeared to be an ordinary person, contrasting their expectations.

Zhou You kept his eyes closed, feigning sleep. When he felt someone pointing at him, he immediately understood the identity of these intruders.

Since coming out of seclusion, the only one he'd made an enemy of was that Grandmaster Wei. It seemed they had come for revenge.

Initially, Zhou You had planned to strike back when they attacked. However, he changed his mind. These individuals posed a threat to society, so he decided to engage with Grandmaster Wei.

Zhou You transmitted his thoughts to Shao Qi: "Don't move later. Let me go with them. This might be a great opportunity to eliminate Grandmaster Wei."

Shao Qi was almost startled awake by this voice. He wanted to see if Zhou You was speaking aloud, but even with his abilities, he couldn't communicate using mental energy. Who exactly was Zhou You?

"This weakling? What's so special about him that Master wants? No matter, let's take him back." The Senior Brother waved his hand, prompting his subordinates to take action. He approached Shao Qi, intending to strike him down with a palm. However, he hesitated upon seeing Shao Qi's face.

He retrieved a syringe from his waist pouch, injecting it into Shao Qi's neck before lifting him up.

"Senior Brother, what's..." The others looked at his actions with confusion.

The Senior Brother waved his hand solemnly and said, "Quick, let's go. This man looks somewhat familiar. He might be someone of significance. We'll take him back to Master for disposal. He might prove useful."

Zhou You was taken aback, assuming that this person had recognized Shao Qi's identity. He speculated that Shao Qi might be General Shao, and if he were to be harmed by these individuals, it would be a loss to the country. Just as Zhou You was about to intervene, a finger scraped against the back of his hand, spelling out the number "2." He remained motionless.
