Chapter 419: When Did You Get Here?

"It’s not because of Xiao Song Zombie, it’s for other reasons. There will definitely be a day of conflict between humans and zombies. It’s got nothing to do with you." Zhang Yiming still wore a smile.

"If you can’t win, don’t force yourself. You can run, we’ll help you." Leng Yebai pulled Bai Xiqin closer with a stern face.

Why does it feel like the distance between Zhang Yiming and Xiao Niu is getting closer?

Not happy!

"When did you get here?"

Zhang Yiming seemed to just now notice Leng Yebai, with a hint of surprise on his face.

He really only just saw Leng Yebai.

"Came with Xiao Niu."

Leng Yebai gritted his teeth and said.

"Hmm, sorry, just noticed." Zhang Yiming nodded without expression and added, "I haven’t found someone I can’t defeat yet. As long as you don’t help, I’m sure to win."

Leng Yebai: ...

Bai Xiqin looked at Leng Yebai, then at Zhang Yiming, and felt the atmosphere between the two was strange.

"Well, why not let me have Xiao Song Zombie! If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll extract its crystal core for Captain Zhu. Better than a war." Bai Xiqin had a fierce look on her face.

Xiao Song Zombie currently did not go berserk and lived with Fan Tangtang and others in the Zombie Village purely due to Zhang Yiming and Fan Tangtang’s brainwave suppression.

Without the powerful brainwaves, Xiao Song Zombie would be just a bloodthirsty monster like all ordinary zombies.

Captain Zhu’s obsession with finding Xiao Song Zombie had become a fixation. Not only did he frequently go to the Zombie Village, but he also wanted to gather superpower users to confront the zombies.

Confronting zombies is not a momentary affair; humans are not yet strong enough to completely eradicate zombies.

Bai Xiqin knew Zhang Yiming was powerful, and it would be the human superpower users who would die.

This is not a solution in the long term.

Initially hiding Xiao Song Zombie was to force Captain Zhu to show his cards and find the so-called True God.

Now that Wang Ge has shown up, the mysterious organization should be related to him, and Captain Zhu’s presence is irrelevant.

"Xiao Song Zombie has stayed with me for some time and is considered family. How can I give it to someone else casually? Don’t worry, Captain Zhu is not my match, and I will not fatally harm human superpower users." Zhang Yiming understood what Bai Xiqin was worried about and comforted her gently. "These things will come eventually. Whether sooner or later, it makes no difference to me."

Bai Xiqin was momentarily stunned, with a bit of regret on her face.

Xiao Song Zombie is indeed a zombie, but so is Zhang Yiming, and he’s the Zombie Emperor.

Probably like the emperors in TV dramas, "loves the people like his children," so he can’t bear ordinary zombies getting hurt!

"I’m sorry, I..."

Bai Xiqin scratched her head, looking a bit uncomfortable.

"It’s okay!" Zhang Yiming quickly waved his hand when seeing Bai Xiqin’s apologetic look.

His soft eyes curved slightly.

Xiao Niu is still the same Xiao Niu.

Whatever he says, she believes.

"We’ve said everything. Be careful and don’t let the crystal core in your mind end up in someone else’s hands. We’ll be leaving now."

After speaking, Leng Yebai pulled Bai Xiqin away.

Bai Xiqin turned her head as if she wanted to say something more, but saw Zhang Yiming smiling and waving goodbye.

Seeing Zhang Yiming so confidently calm, Bai Xiqin said no more and followed Leng Yebai back.

Only after Bai Xiqin’s figure disappeared did Zhang Yiming turn to look at the large pit he dug.

This was the Yellow River Beach, too close to the Yellow River, and after digging just two meters down, murky water began to seep out.

At the bottom of the pit, a different color from the surrounding mud emerged.

This soil was hard, yellower, and pure, with no sand or various small insects mixed in.

Zhang Yiming rolled up his sleeves, not caring about his dirty appearance, and jumped down again.

His slender, fair fingers dug into the bottom of the pit again, causing black blood to seep out from the hard soil grazing his fingers.

Zhang Yiming acted as if he didn’t feel any pain and continued digging.

Captain Zhu’s statement wasn’t new; the Bai Family just happened to hear it recently.

When Bai Xiqin returned to the bus, the Water Python had already brought news.

Within the Fire Phoenix Safety Base, many powerful superpower users had gathered, and even a truckload of guns and ammunition was heading towards the Yellow River.

However, the "great war" that Bai Xiqin was slightly apprehensive about was not uncontrollable.

In the apocalypse, people’s unity had been nearly exhausted, so superpower users from other safety bases wouldn’t just believe Captain Zhu because of a broadcast.

Especially when the opponent was the Zombie King.

The terror of the zombie hordes was something even high-rank superpower users didn’t want to experience.

Thus, the so-called high-rank superpower users at the Fire Phoenix Safety Base were at most Third Rank Superpower Users.

Such superpower users couldn’t possibly trigger a large-scale war.

Human superpower users didn’t take it seriously, but the Zombie King did.

In Taovillage, after pondering for a night, Old Tao decided to leave with a part of the zombies and head towards the Yellow River Beach.

He couldn’t stay in the village; if humans really wanted to deal with him, his presence would be a disaster for the village.

He’s a zombie, and the people in the village rely on zombies for protection. Perhaps going there, he could meet other Zombie Kings.

Regardless of whether they’re good or bad, getting to know others and communicating about zombie evolution is crucial for him.

Old Tao entrusted the village’s safety to a young zombie. Whether he returned or not, Taovillage remained Taovillage, a home where humans and zombies coexist peacefully.

The night fell, the stars dazzling.

The Bai Family sat on the sofa, discussing strategies.

Wang Ge had not been found. Since he escaped last time, he’d gone off the radar, not even Water Python Qin Yuan could trace him.

A war might break out here.

To stay and help one side, or simply leave, was yet undecided.

"Let’s see tomorrow! According to their speed, they will arrive here tomorrow. Once this is over, we should leave for Shanghai," Bai Xiqin said solemnly.

Creatures in the Yellow River couldn’t be provoked, and staying wouldn’t improve superpowers, so going to places with more zombies to train, elevate superpowers, and enhance the family’s capabilities seemed better.

This world still held many unknowns, and waiting idly was terrifying because you never knew when you’d be "harvested" by others.

"Alright."

Bai Anhai readily agreed.

Staying in the same city would fixate one’s thoughts, unable to adapt to external crises, making survival in the apocalypse difficult.

"What about Wang Ge’s matter?" Bai Yifan whispered.

"Talk to Xiao Ming about it tomorrow, pretend Wang Ge never existed or is dead, and once we truly become stronger, then take him out," Bai Xiqin clenched her fist.

Honestly, she wanted to kill him outright.

But the strength wasn’t there.

And she couldn’t keep troubling Zhang Yiming for revenge, so she’d wait until she had the strength to take action.

Last time, Zhang Yiming told her he’d handle Wang Ge’s matter, which made Bai Xiqin feel uneasy and displeased.

What was displeasing was that avenging one’s own grudge personally was more satisfying!

Reflecting on it, the experiments on zombies in Tongji Hospital surely had Wang Ge’s hand, and his mystical babbling suggested the laboratory was linked to him.

Plus, he commanded zombie hordes to attack her family twice. This grudge couldn’t just be swallowed.

"Okay, I’ll listen to Big Sis."

Bai Yifan blinked, slightly conflicted internally whether to use a beauty trap to lure him out.
