Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Chapter 1259 - 650: Crisis Approaches, Xu Ying Returns (Part 3)

As she spoke, Qi Xuefei sighed with some frustration, "Some of them have even started asking me about pregnancy and childbirth. In our current situation, they still want to do such things."

...?

Xu Xin was taken aback at first, then couldn’t help but laugh, "Hasn’t this always been the case? So did you tell them?"

"I’m not some gynecologist, how would I know about such things?" Qi Xuefei shook her head helplessly.

"I think you know quite a bit; your medicine has been a great help to us." Xu Xin laughed.

If it weren’t for Qi Xuefei’s medicine, he and Li Wenxi wouldn’t dare to be so reckless.

"Is killing the same as giving birth?" Qi Xuefei couldn’t help but roll her eyes lightly.

Xu Xin looked at Ji Chaoyang, raising an eyebrow, "You two are living together, so you should also..."

"Stop." Ji Chaoyang, with a black line across his face, made a pause gesture, "We’re not here to talk about such things this time."

"Alright, then." Xu Xin shrugged, "Let’s tell them some things. Honestly, I have a premonition that it’s only a matter of time before they come to wipe us out, and it shouldn’t be long before it happens."

"Yes, and once they attack, it would be useless for us to be on the defensive; we must move the battlefield to attack their stronghold."

Although the size of the alien invaders’ army hasn’t grown much over the millennia, it is still enormous, after all, it’s a fleet traveling through the universe.

Facing them head-on is impossible to win, and even defensively holding out for some time would be considered lucky.

"Reveal some things to them. Our leisurely good days likely won’t last much longer." Xu Xin said.

...

Soon, the residents of the World Tree all knew the situation it was in.

Xu Xin and the others didn’t tell them about the plan. Such a sneak attack plan is better known to as few people as possible.

Otherwise, you never know when information might leak out somehow.

They told them that the alien invaders were very likely to launch a collective attack on the World Tree and even told them that this wasn’t speculation, but there were already signs.

This caused a huge stir among the group.

"Oh my god, are we going to be attacked by a cosmic fleet?!"

"An alien invader fleet, crossing galaxies, coming collectively to attack us?!"

"This this this..."

"No... it’s not that exaggerated, right? Aren’t we just having a World Tree? Don’t the alien invaders have lots of them?"

"This isn’t an ordinary World Tree!"

"But how would they know that..."

"Who says; maybe there’s a traitor among us who already leaked the news. Isn’t it said that alien invaders are best at brainwashing?!"

"Hey, hey, hey, don’t sow discord!"

"You guys have no confidence at all; our current weapons are so powerful! They’re nuclear fusion weapons! Tell me, who can withstand them!"

"As if the other side doesn’t have them..."

"...I feel like we can’t continue to be so disheartened!"

"Yes, these past few months have been too comfortable; I almost forgot this was a world full of crises."

"Mom, the surface is dangerous; I want to go back underground..."

"Even though I knew the surface was dangerous, I didn’t expect... it’s this dangerous!"

"A little excited, how come? With our current ample weapons, if they dare to come, we’ll dare to fight!"

"What’s with your expressions? Don’t tarnish the Wei Family’s reputation!"

...

The motivational effect was very good.

Hardly any of the survivors complained, as even though they had lived worry-free for a few months, they were the ones who survived the bloody selection process.

They wouldn’t complain about danger; those who would have long since died in past disaster events.

And the residents of the underground world also had few complaints.

After all, they belonged to the Wei Family, a military family, and naturally weren’t so fragile.

They came up with the intention of reclaiming the surface.

Of course, some of their family members were still very worried and wanted to return to the surface.

But when Xu Xin told them that even the underground human bases were no longer safe, they dismissed the idea.

Xu Xin was not trying to alarm anyone.

Because now, the possibility of the underground human bases being exposed was high and significant.

Back then, many of the survivors planted by the monsters in the underground human bases had returned to the surface.

And since the monsters ’defected,’ those people are now siding with the alien invaders.

Even though Xu Ying has removed all the teleportation devices in the underground world according to the monsters’ guidance, but...

Even if the alien invaders on the other side of Earth have no contact with these survivors, and generally don’t communicate with them, it’s only a matter of time before the underground world is exposed.

Information can always spread in various ways.

At that time, even the underground world may not be safe.

"I wonder how Yingying is doing this time in the underground world."

Walking on the way back, Xu Xin thought and grew a bit worried about Xu Ying’s situation.

"Hmm, worried about me? With me on the case, what are you worrying about, big brother?"

Suddenly, a familiar teasing voice came from behind Xu Xin.

He was startled, turning his head quickly and saw Xu Ying with a face full of a smug smile.

"...You’re back."

Xu Xin smiled, but then the smile on his face gradually faded.

Because this time, even he could vaguely sense something was off about Xu Ying.

It was a very intriguing feeling.

This feeling was somewhat similar to when he traveled through time back in the Crystal Palace, a sense of past journeying.

"...The degree of time-space disturbance on you has deepened again." Xu Xin frowned.

"Ah..." Xu Ying looked down at herself, then looked up and smiled, "Don’t worry, it’ll be fine in a few minutes."

"You..."

"Oh come on, let’s head back first!"

Xu Ying pushed Xu Xin into the villa in front of them.

"Oh! Yingying, you’re back!"

All the women in the villa stood up and gathered around.

"You’ve really been gone a long time!" Li Wenxi exclaimed.

"Hehe, for me, it was only a few hours." Xu Ying laughed.

"Hmm? How come, you now have a kind of..." Lou Fei’Er curiously looked Xu Ying over, unable to resist touching her, "a strange feeling?"

It seemed Lou Fei’Er had also slightly sensed the time-space disturbance.

The most exaggerated reaction came from Keke.

The little one was originally on the first floor, but as soon as Xu Ying returned, it dashed to the second floor.

"Oh..."

At this point, it was clutching the handrail on the second floor with its little paws, looking over from afar.

Xu Xin’s brow furrowed a bit more.

"What’s so strange?"

Xu Ying waved off the concern nonchalantly, then said excitedly, "This time I went to the underground world, and I came back with quite the haul! You absolutely wouldn’t believe it!"
