Chapter 175: Chapter 175: Can’t Worry About That Anymore

“Roar――”

The zombie’s roar echoed, and before Bai Xiqin and the others could make their way forward, zombies lunged at them with ferocious faces.

There were a total of five zombies, three First Rank zombies and two Second Rank zombies!

Their bodies were somewhat more agile than ordinary zombies.

A zombie spewed out scorching flames from its mouth, as fierce and fast as a flamethrower.

Bai Xiqin raised her fingers, and an invisible shield blocked in front of her. The flames hit the invisible shield but didn’t harm Bai Xiqin even a bit.

The flames spread to nearby shelves, setting them ablaze.

Bai Yifan silently put down the sack in his hand and swiftly ran to the spot where the fire extinguisher was kept, putting out the fire all around.

The five zombies roared and rushed towards Bai Xiqin, bloodlust filling their nostrils; they had run out of patience.

Flesh and blood, they must feast on today.

Purple lightning and frost-covered steel needles flew straight towards the zombies’ temples.

First Rank and Second Rank zombies, terrifying beings people shuddered at the mere mention of.

In the hands of Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai, they instantly fell to the ground.

Since the apocalypse, they have never slacked in absorbing crystal cores.

Bai Xiqin extended her hand, and five faintly colored crystal cores swiftly flew out and dropped into the sack.

Bai Yifan placed the fire extinguisher aside, shouldering the sack and continuing to follow his sister.

Though his actions were somewhat feeble, he didn’t feel ashamed at all.

Only those with thick skins can survive longer.

Bai Xiqin glanced at the charcoal-blackened zombies and curiously asked Leng Yebai, “Aren’t you a dual ability user with Ice Ability and Thunder Ability? Why do I always see you using Thunder Ability?”

Bai Xiqin had seen Leng Yebai use Ice Ability before, and he handled it with ease; Ice Ability was also quite powerful.

It wasn’t his weakness.

Leng Yebai looked back at the crystal core-carrying Bai Yifan, hesitating to speak.

Wouldn’t it be inappropriate to discuss this now?

“Brother, why are you looking at me?” Bai Yifan wiped his sweat. “Is it because you’ve also realized how handsome I am?”

Bai Yifan smugly raised an eyebrow at Leng Yebai.

In the Bai Family, he wasn’t the strongest but certainly the most talkative.

Leng Yebai glanced at Bai Yifan’s aggravating expression, his mouth twitching slightly.

“I’m afraid you’ll get mad.”

Leng Yebai affectionately looked at Bai Xiqin, purple lightning dancing on his fingertips, not using a hint of Ice Ability.

“Mad? Why?” Bai Xiqin was puzzled.

“Yeah! Maybe it’s because my big sister also has Ice Ability, and you’re scared to use it?” Bai Yifan scratched his head, tilting his head to look at Leng Yebai, “Brother Leng, are you really that timid?”

Leng Yebai’s forehead vein twitched as he spoke gloomily, “Xiao Niu mentioned that in her dream, after you and Uncle and Aunt turned into zombies, I inserted ice needles into your temples.”

For Xiao Niu, it felt like a real occurrence, and he feared it would remind her of past events, making her feel distressed.

Hence, he always used Thunder Ability.

Leng Yebai’s voice was chilling, and Bai Yifan shivered.

He had a perpetual feeling that his temple was icy.

“Sister, is this for real?” Bai Yifan wore a constipated expression.

As if being kept domestically by Mom and Dad wasn’t bad enough, even after turning into zombies, they couldn’t roam around.

And Brother Leng blew their heads.

This feeling… is indescribable.

Even favored domestically, it shouldn’t be like this.

Everything ended up in the family’s hands.

“Yes, that’s true.” Bai Xiqin looked back at Bai Yifan, “It was just a dream, you need not dwell on it.”

Having reincarnated, consider everything in the past as merely a dream!

Bai Yifan ground his teeth, glancing at his parents’ killer and his own, hoping to gain a verbal edge.

But he dared not speak out.

Forget it, his sister’s man couldn’t be insulted or beaten.

If he insulted him, his sister would beat him up.

If he fought, he wouldn’t stand a chance.

Considering Leng Yebai’s slightly superior status, Bai Yifan just considered it a dream!

Wah…

Even so, Bai Yifan felt quite cold inside.

He was so terribly tragic in his sister’s dream!

Was he still his sister’s most adored brother?!

While the three were conversing, they reached a corner where the five zombies lay hidden.

A bag of freshly crushed chips lay desolately on the ground there.

As Bai Xiqin approached, the floral scent of the Purple Mandala Flower grew even more intense here.

In the corner, there was a small door.

This room was specifically for customers to change clothes.

Bai Xiqin glanced at the bottom of the door, faintly seeing a pair of clean shoes in the door gap.

Green Wood Ability twined around her wrist, and the scent of Mandala grew stronger.

Intentionally or not, the scent wafted towards that door.

The new shoes slightly shifted as the fragrance spread.

Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai exchanged a look.

In a large supermarket where zombies laired, it was impossible for humans to exist.

Every zombie was filthy all over, yet this zombie sported a pair of brand-new shoes.

This indicated the zombie possessed high intelligence.

It could even change its shoes by itself.

A frost-covered steel needle shot towards the door.

Clang――

The steel needle seemed to have struck something metallic.

The new shoes shifted, and the door flew straight towards Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

The massive impact generated a fierce wind, incredibly sharp.

Bai Xiqin extended her finger, stopping the soaring door in mid-air, and it slowly descended to the ground.

Not a sound was made.

The door, having flown open, exposed the scene behind it.

A neatly dressed zombie sat on a small stool inside, with a face covered in decaying flesh yet impeccably clean overall.

While resembling ordinary zombies in decay, externally, it was strikingly different.

Not dirty at all; more akin to freshly changed clothes.

Its gaze was nowhere as dull as other zombies, instead sharply eyeing Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

It was a High Rank Zombie.

“Get, out.”

This clean zombie’s throat emitted a hoarse sound like sandpaper rubbing together.

Clearly with a hideously contorted face, its eyes were exceptionally sharp, its decaying throat managing human syllables.

Bai Yifan, terrified, stepped back a step with trembling legs.

Once more fortunate for the thorough preparation, saving face.

Bai Yifan glanced at the neatly dressed zombie, meeting its rotten yet sharp eyes.

With a decayed face, it curled a dangerous smile at Bai Yifan, and overwhelming terror surged from within.

Bai Yifan hurriedly averted his gaze, pulling a pacifier from his pocket with trembling hands and placing it in his mouth.

Since the apocalypse, he always carried this pacifier.

But had never used it, fearing others’ laughs.

Now—

No longer caring about anything else.

He had to use it to soothe his traumatized, extremely fragile heart.

The floral aroma enveloping the zombie’s nose made it inhale deeply, emitting a faint yellow glow from its body.

On its fingers, however, was the wetness of water droplets.

It was a Dual Ability Zombie with Gold Ability and Water Ability.

“Get, out.”

The hoarse voice resounded again.

It sorely wanted to devour Bai Xiqin and the others; the aroma of flesh and blood nearly broke its restraint.

But their prowess made it wary, suppressing its nature furiously.

Just wait, just wait.

It planned to strike when they dropped their guard.

This was the only strategy it could think of with the highest chance of victory.
