Chapter 302: The Zombie Emperor Whose Name Cannot Be Revealed

"Honestly, if you don’t work hard, there will always be a more diligent zombie. If one day a certain unnamed Zombie Emperor turns into a human and really makes it to the top, you’ll be crying your eyes out!"

Fan Liping kept getting more enthusiastic as he spoke.

Having stayed in Zombie Village for so long, it was rare to get some gossip out, and now chatting with Leng Yebai, Fan Liping grew increasingly excited.

"If Xiao Niu doesn’t care about being a zombie or not, wouldn’t that certain Zombie Emperor have an easier time moving up?"

Fan Liping sat on a chair, poured himself a glass of water, and continued, "I heard a piece of gossip from my wife, about a certain Zombie Emperor. Do you want to hear it?"

Leng Yebai slowly shifted his body, sat opposite Fan Liping, and stayed silent, but his rotten eyes were staring straight at Fan Liping.

Looking as if he would kill him if he didn’t continue speaking.

Fan Liping wasn’t scared.

Having lived among zombies for so long, he was quite accepting of them.

Especially now that he couldn’t hear Tangtang and his father’s painful noises, Fan Liping’s gossiping heart was like a wildfire, unstoppable.

Anyway, that certain Zombie Emperor wasn’t here, so he could gossip however he liked.

"I heard all of Xiao Niu’s ex-boyfriends broke up with her because she had an unspeakable class monitor! That class monitor, taking advantage of being her old classmate, constantly sowed discord, causing Xiao Niu to get dumped several times!" Fan Liping nudged Leng Yebai with his elbow, "Isn’t it easy to understand a man’s mind? If it were us, we’d do the same."

Leng Yebai nodded solemnly, his rotten face filled with agreement.

If he encountered Xiao Niu with a boyfriend, he’d definitely sow discord too!

He wouldn’t do any less than that unspeakable male classmate!

"Think about it! You used to be a human, and that unspeakable male classmate was a zombie, maybe too embarrassed to pursue Xiao Niu. Now that you’ve turned into a zombie, but look slightly less handsome than a certain Zombie Emperor, wouldn’t he have a chance to move up?"

"Bam!"

Leng Yebai slammed his decaying hand heavily on the bedside table, leaving a black handprint behind.

That certain Zombie Emperor truly was a sly fox!

"Stay calm, stay calm!" Fan Liping quietly pulled out a packet of sunflower seeds, munching and gossiping, "So, you think you can just keep lazing around? Soon you’ll find yourself dumped without knowing how it happened!"

Leng Yebai slowly shook his rotten face.

But when he looked in the mirror and saw the decaying flesh on his face, he hesitated again.

Would Xiao Niu have nightmares looking at this face at night?

After all, she was so gentle, kind, and fragile.

"What are you hesitating for?" Fan Liping sighed and threw in another hint, "Do you really think it’s a good thing to become Uncle Leng to Xiao Niu’s kids in the future?"

Leng Yebai paused, Xiao Niu’s children would surely be the most adorable kids in the world.

But if they were Zhang Yiming’s kids, Leng Yebai didn’t think they’d be that lovable.

Only if they were his and Xiao Niu’s kids would they be the most adorable in the world.

"Tsk tsk tsk, and you’re just giving up so easily here!" Fan Liping shook his head while cracking sunflower seeds, "That certain unnamed Zombie Emperor is already starting to venture out with Xiao Niu. If you don’t put in the effort, you’re really going to become her ex."

Leng Yebai clenched his decaying fists, black blood seeping out, the white bone jutted out a bit.

Fan Liping was startled, quickly turning his head away.

"You’re too scary. Look at that certain unnamed Zombie Emperor; he never shows bone fragments in front of Xiao Niu!" Fan Liping pursed his lips, "Girls would be terrified."

Leng Yebai awkwardly loosened his grip, one decaying finger covering another.

Barely covering the bone fragment beneath, another finger bone fragment peeked out.

Leng Yebai blinked his decaying eyes and silently tucked his hands into his pockets.

Fan Liping: ...

Looks like reverse psychology works quite well.

"So, do you know what to do now?" Fan Liping gestured a cheering sign to Leng Yebai.

As long as he upgrades his superpower, transforming his appearance to be as human-like as a certain Zombie Emperor, he won’t have to worry about a third party interfering!

"Got it!" Leng Yebai nodded affirmatively, his hoarse voice reaching Fan Liping’s ears, "I just have to be an even bigger sly fox than a certain shameless Zombie Emperor!"

Fan Liping’s mouth twitched as he looked at Leng Yebai’s rotting face.

He never imagined Leng Yebai could say something like that.

Moreover, the story of a certain Zombie Emperor being a sly fox and breaking up Bai Xiqin’s past boyfriends was all made up by him.

He didn’t believe a certain Zombie Emperor would be so shameless.

Unexpectedly, with just a few words, he was about to cultivate a new shameless zombie.

What was happening to the world?

Zombies that simply wanted to devour flesh and blood were also starting to play little tricks.

Wasn’t it more motivational to absorb the crystal core?

Fan Liping’s mouth twitched crazily, but he still nodded.

In Leng Yebai’s current state, only Xiao Niu was his spiritual support.

Without her motivating him, he probably wouldn’t find another way.

Sorry, certain Zombie Emperor, for making you look bad!

Fan Liping thought that everyone believed that a certain unnamed Zombie Emperor wasn’t like that and had good character.

Letting Leng Yebai mistakenly believe he was a sly fox wasn’t a big deal, right?

After all, he wasn’t truly a sly fox!

Fan Liping felt a secret joy.

Zhang Yiming was the boss here, and gossiping about him was somehow very satisfying!

Leng Yebai lowered his head, looking at the necklace around his neck, and whenever he thought of a certain sly Zombie Emperor holding Xiao Niu like himself, he got immensely angry.

No way!

He was so sly; he had to be more cautious.

Leng Yebai suddenly stood up, began rummaging through the room.

"What are you doing?"

Fan Liping watched Leng Yebai with curiosity while munching on sunflower seeds.

He really wanted to see how sly foxes would compete.

Unfortunately, Zhang Yiming wasn’t a sly fox and wouldn’t do anything to break up couples!

"Absorbing crystal cores!" Leng Yebai gritted his teeth.

Upgrading the superpower was no longer important.

What’s important was ensuring he looked better than Zhang Yiming!

After all, his Xiao Niu had a fascination with attractive people!

"Then you better work hard. Don’t self-destruct; the more you do, the worse you’ll look, and you’ll never outmatch a certain pretty-faced Zombie Emperor!" Fan Liping said.

Sorry, Xiao Ming.

Fan Liping’s mouth curled up; why did it feel so refreshing to badmouth Zhang Yiming behind his back?

Fan Liping slyly glanced around, not seeing any other zombies, and raised his eyebrows.

Kept on talking.

"Do you think that certain Zombie Emperor could be just a flirtatious sly one?" Fan Liping pointed at the blue-dressed female zombie outside the door, "What if she’s his confidante?"

Leng Yebai paused in silence, the crystal core in his hand crumbling instantly.

That’s even more reason to evolve quickly; his Xiao Niu mustn’t be deceived by a handsome pretty-faced Zombie Emperor!

Hah!

Filthy zombie!

Spit!
