Chapter 27: Chapter 27: Dancing Youth

“Roar――”

The zombies outside, attracted by the noise, rushed over.

Three arrived at once.

Bai Xiqin extended her hand. The three zombies rushed over, snarling, but could not move a step further.

This was Control Ability.

“Who’s next?”

Bai Xiqin turned her head to look at everyone.

Everyone should experience the feeling of killing a zombie at least once; otherwise, they’ll be scared when they go outside.

“I’ll do it!”

Liu Jing’s eyes sparkled, and she eagerly gripped her longsword, ready to act.

Bai Anhai glanced at his excited mother, the corners of his mouth twitching hard.

No matter when, his mom was still his mom!

Always so violent!

Bai Xiqin nodded slightly and released the control over one of the zombies.

The three zombies roared angrily at everyone, but only one could rush at them.

Liu Jing calmly held her longsword, efficiently and decisively swinging it and slicing down on the hideous head of the zombie.

Red and white splattered everywhere.

The zombie fell instantly to the ground, motionless.

But that wasn’t all; Liu Jing calmly squatted down and used her longsword to probe inside the bloody heads of the two fallen zombies.

After a while, Liu Jing sighed.

“No Crystal Core!”

“Ugh――”

Old Master Bai Zhengxuan covered his mouth, almost vomiting his lunch from earlier.

He was a seventy-year-old man; it wasn’t easy!

“Honey, what are you afraid of? It’s just a pile of rotten meat?”

Liu Jing looked at Bai Zhengxuan, a flash of confusion in her eyes.

“I’m not afraid. I’m just—nauseous, ugh――” Bai Zhengxuan waved his hand with difficulty, pointing to Wang Yiyun who was shaking nearby, “Look, with your violence, even our daughter-in-law can’t handle it.”

“Dad, it’s not that. I’m just a bit uncomfortable. They’re so ugly, and I can’t apply makeup to them. I really… feel an itch!”

Wang Yiyun used all her self-control to hold herself back.

Ah, her damned occupational disease!

Bai Zhengxuan: …

Fine, pretend he didn’t say anything.

“Next.” Bai Xiqin said.

Wang Yiyun stepped forward.

Bai Xiqin released one zombie.

The longsword Wang Yiyun held sparkled faintly with electricity as she swung it straight.

The longsword cut across the zombie’s neck.

The zombie’s hideous head fell to the ground, mouth still snarling, but without a throat, it couldn’t make a sound.

Its body lay rigidly on the ground, unmoving, yet the head still flailed about.

“It’s not dead!”

Wang Yiyun was momentarily stunned.

“A zombie’s fatal point is its head. If you don’t destroy its brain, it won’t die!” Bai Xiqin said.

“But cutting its head off just makes it uglier?”

Wang Yiyun was filled with conflict.

Her damned occupational disease!

Sigh, if only the apocalypse could be controlled, the crematoriums would surely be overflowing, and she’d definitely make a fortune!

After lamenting, Wang Yiyun swung her longsword, stabbed it accurately and ruthlessly into the zombie’s temple, and then extracted a white Crystal Core from it.

The Crystal Core was semi-transparent and quite beautiful.

“Is this a Crystal Core?”

Wang Yiyun was slightly astonished.

She hadn’t expected such a beautiful thing to be inside the mind of an ugly zombie!

“There’s one more; who wants it?”

Bai Xiqin pointed at the last zombie.

The zombie roared hideously, restrained by an invisible force from Bai Xiqin.

“I’m underage.” Bai Yifan looked at Bai Zhengxuan.

“I’m seventy this year!” Bai Zhengxuan looked at Leng Yebai.

Leng Yebai calmly raised his hand, and a stunning purple electric light shot towards the zombie’s head.

Crackling sound――

The zombie’s head instantly turned charred black, the powerful purple shock destroying its brain, rendering it motionless.

Liu Jing calmly walked over, using the longsword to slice open the charred head.

And extracted another white Crystal Core.

Liu Jing, who had been a forensic doctor for most of her life, could finally dissect bodies openly!

Refreshing!

“Here!”

Liu Jing handed the Crystal Core to Leng Yebai, since he had killed the zombie.

Leng Yebai took the Crystal Core and calmly handed it to Bai Xiqin.

Bai Xiqin didn’t hesitate and took it straight away.

What belonged to Leng Yebai belonged to her, and what belonged to her was still hers.

“It seems like there are no more zombies. Let’s call it a day for now!”

Bai Zhengxuan looked up, avoiding the pile of flesh on the ground.

“You haven’t even played yet!”

Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow.

“Dear, you don’t need to be afraid!”

Liu Jing patted Bai Zhengxuan’s shoulder, encouraging him.

“I’m not afraid, I’m just—nauseous, want to vomit!” Bai Zhengxuan covered his mouth, silently standing behind Liu Jing.

“Sis, I’m also nauseous, want to vomit!”

Bai Yifan’s face turned slightly pale.

“These are just ordinary zombies. There will be various mutated zombies in a while, and it will be even more dangerous then.” Bai Xiqin said seriously.

Zombies, these mindless undead, seem to be even more innately advantaged than Superpower Users. Over time, some zombies will become more formidable.

This is why the apocalypse hasn’t been controlled yet.

Superpower Users grow stronger through cultivation.

Zombies and mutated plants and animals will too!

“Go on! Continue!”

Bai Zhengxuan gritted his teeth and decided to continue.

Bai Yifan turned even paler, gripping his longsword tightly, also deciding to continue.

The family stepped over the zombies on the ground, continuing their way out.

The blood on the ground remained unwiped, the vivid red declaring what had transpired here.

“Where do we find them?”

Bai Zhengxuan swallowed, glanced at the empty space.

Looks like the little darlings wandered off somewhere else.

“Use this!”

Bai Xiqin calmly pulled out a small speaker.

Zombies have the sharpest hearing and sense of smell. When you can’t find zombies, making noise is the simplest method.

The small speaker rose into the air and flew about twenty meters outwards.

This was the farthest Bai Xiqin could control.

“Let’s start the eighth broadcasting exercise, Dance of Youth…begin…”

A strong, sonorous female voice came from the small speaker.

Everyone: …

“How about now? Aren’t you scared anymore?” Bai Xiqin turned to ask Bai Yifan.

Bai Yifan: “…”

For a moment, Bai Yifan thought the school speaker had started again!

“Two, two, three, four, three, two, three, four…”

“Roar――”

With the broadcast exercise’s sound, three zombies roared, rushing over.

Bai Xiqin retrieved the speaker, turning off the sound system.

Then she extended her finger, and the three zombies were immediately blocked by an invisible force.

“I’ll go!”

Bai Yifan stepped forward slightly, gripping his longsword tightly.

After listening to the exercise broadcast, Bai Yifan felt ready to go!

Bai Xiqin slightly moved her finger, and a zombie roared, rushing towards them.

Bai Yifan swung his longsword fiercely, but due to a lack of strength, the sword got stuck in the zombie’s head.

Seeing the zombie’s claws about to scratch Bai Yifan’s face, a steel needle wrapped in frost flew into the zombie’s temple, soaring into the air.

The frost dissipated, and the dark red bloodstain on the needle’s surface turned to blood water, dripping to the ground.

Then the steel needle flew back into the wooden box at Bai Xiqin’s waist.

Bai Yifan’s face turned even paler, withdrew his longsword, and stepped back.

The zombie plopped, lying stiffly on the ground.
