Usually, Xia Lei would chat with Yangos from time to time. After all, there weren't many evolvers who could exchange a few words with the Evil Dragon without getting sprayed with blood. Liu Zhenghong was one, and Xia Lei was another.
However, even when Xia Lei spoke to Yangos, she would keep him at a distance or make sure his mouth was facing the sky.
There was no way around it; this guy's mouth not only had a foul odor but also a bad breath.
But at that moment, even though Yangos had his mouth wide open not far behind Xia Lei, she didn’t feel the slightest bit angry. Instead, a wave of joy surged from her heart.
“Winged one, if you can’t perform today, we might all be done for,” Xia Lei said, her body relaxing a bit.
“Perform what?” Yangos asked, then saw the endless green-skinned demons ahead.
“Oh, can we escape?”
This was more in line with Yangos's character.
However, Xia Lei wasn’t angry but shook her head and said, “Do you see this layer of grayish stuff around us? If we don’t break through it, we can’t get out at all.”
This time, Yangos surprisingly didn’t make a fuss. Instead, he looked thoughtfully at the layer of material that separated them from the world.
If everything was as Xia Lei said, then Yangos felt it was time to make some decisions.

The Cloud Summit’s team outside wasn’t unwilling to provide assistance; rather, they encountered a powerful ambush.
The green-skinned demons not only attacked the command center of Cloud Summit but also made numerous arrangements to ensure the success of this surprise attack.
Firstly, in terms of numbers, Cloud Summit's calculations were incorrect. The actual number of parasites was not just over five million, but exceeded six million. Out of the hidden nearly two million, one million green-skinned demons attacked the Cloud Summit command center with the main force, while another five hundred thousand fell to the ground in the same manner, rushing towards the command center to block incoming reinforcements.
Fifty thousand wasn’t much when the Cloud Summit was at its peak, but now, even just standing in front of that grayish material could shatter the morale of those trying to come to their aid.
Every second of delay meant the lives of Cloud Summit People in the isolated command center were threatened for that second. Perhaps if they were five seconds late, the outcome would be entirely different.
After all, even if the command center members were included, along with the spirit woman's zombie horde and some Cloud Summit warriors who happened to be here, the number wouldn’t exceed one hundred thousand, and there were only a few top-tier lifeforms. Faced with a million enemies, many of whom were likely top-tier demons, they could only last so long.
Secondly, what puzzled the Cloud Summit people before wasn't just the lack of top-tier lifeforms among so many parasites, but also the lack of flying ones. This was a reason Xia Lei and Guangyao believed there was an ambush.
Previously, in their few encounters with the parasites, there had been a considerable number of flying parasites present.
Now, as the ambush began, the situation was clarified. At least over two hundred thousand flying parasites appeared, blocking what should have been the Cloud Summit air force arriving first above the command center.
A fierce aerial battle broke out between the two sides before that unknown material.
Since Ye Zhongming went over to the All Races of the Universe, Red Hair's closest relations in Cloud Summit were Xia Lei and Liang Chuyin.
Due to the complex relationship with Ye Zhongming, this extraordinary being had a natural fondness for Ye Zhongming’s women. Xia Lei and Liang Chuyin were both high-emotional intelligence women who could easily become good friends with anyone they wanted, while Red Hair was more carefree and didn’t treat them as outsiders. If Red Hair wasn’t close to them, who else could she be close to?
