Chapter 127
Though Shi Xingyu thought the young girl was formidable, he couldn't let her follow him around forever.
He had assumed that the rain could shield his aura.
So, he ran despite the downpour.
But clearly, his expectations were too optimistic.
Even in heavy rain, he couldn't shake off this young girl.
After the hurricane made landfall, Shi Xingyu plunged into the hurricane.
He also wanted to use the hurricane to shake off these two humans.
Because humans tend to avoid danger.
But his idea was shattered once more by the appearance of Wei Qiang.
At this moment, Shi Xingyu finally understood why Yu Qingxian was so afraid of this young girl.
He couldn't fight her, nor could he shake her off.
Now, he could relate to how Yu Qingxian felt.
Even if he couldn't shake her off, he had to try.
---
When Shi Xingyu really couldn't shake off Wei Qiang, he saw Yu Qingxian again.
Her presence was even harder to detect now.
Looking at the green zombie in front of him, a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Just a few months apart, and she had turned herself green.
Well, considering Yu Qingxian's incomprehensible thinking, he wouldn't be surprised if she turned pink next time he saw her.
But since he ran into Yu Qingxian, he might as well let her deal with that young girl.
He couldn't let that young girl follow him around forever.
After dealing with Wei Qiang with Yu Qingxian, Shi Xingyu naturally planned to leave.
For some reason, Shi Xingyu felt that Yu Qingxian's death wish seemed deeper.
If it were in the past, he would be curious, but now, Shi Xingyu wasn't that curious anymore.
In Yu Qingxian's words, she never wanted to live in the first place.
But she's still alive now.
Shi Xingyu knew he couldn't go with Yu Qingxian. If he followed her, it would be inconvenient for her.
And it would be inconvenient for him too.
After bidding farewell to Yu Qingxian again, Shi Xingyu headed towards the city where the Zombie King Yu Qingxian had seen was located.
Of course, he wasn't looking for trouble, just wanted to take a look.
Shi Xingyu thought he had advanced fast enough, but he didn't expect there to be zombies faster than him.
But upon entering the city, he ran into Gu Wanqing again.
And upon seeing Gu Wanqing, he changed his mind again.
Since Gu Wanqing was here, that zombie wouldn't dare to act rashly.
Perhaps one day in the future, this zombie would be killed by Gu Wanqing.
So after encountering Gu Wanqing, Shi Xingyu decided not to visit the Zombie King.
And Shi Xingyu knew that if he met Ye, they would definitely fight.
Firstly, he was not yet at level five, while Ye was already at level five. No matter how formidable he was, the chances of victory were slim.
Not all zombies are reasonable.
Even if they were reasonable, it would only be when the other party was stronger and willing to be reasonable.
But more often, they required the other party to submit.
Shi Xingyu certainly didn't want to submit to them.
Not all zombies are as uninterested in rule as Yu Qingxian.
And like him, even if he really submitted, the other party wouldn't trust him.
They might even decide to crack open his skull at any moment.
So Shi Xingyu turned around and left the city.
The weather in the apocalypse was always unpredictable.
When Shi Xingyu felt his body immobilized, he was in a city.
It first rained for several days, then turned to hail, and finally, the air froze.
Shi Xingyu was frozen on the street just like that.
Afterward, his consciousness became blurred.
He didn’t know how long it took before his consciousness came back.
After recovering, Shi Xingyu felt somewhat weak.
He moved his hands and feet, dragging his weak body into a house.
Although he didn't think changing clothes would make a difference.
Shi Xingyu still changed into a new set of clothes.
Thick ones, like the clothes Yu Qingxian first changed for him.
He didn't know if it was psychological, but after putting on thick clothes, he did feel much better.
But his body had expended a lot of energy, which needed to be replenished.
He took out the Crystal Core from his bag.
This Crystal Core had always been carried by Yu Qingxian, and for some reason, he felt that the energy of this Crystal Core had not decreased at all, but even increased.
Never mind, it’s useless to struggle with these useless things.
Even if he asked Yu Qingxian, Yu Qingxian wouldn’t understand.
---
After Shi Xingyu absorbed this Crystal Core, he felt an unprecedented sense of clarity.
He knew he had levelled up.
Before, he had always been stuck in the same place.
No matter how many Crystal Cores he ate, he couldn’t break through.
So later Shi Xingyu stopped eating, it was a waste if he did.
Who would have thought that after being frozen, after absorbing this level three Crystal Core, he actually levelled up.
After Shi Xingyu levelled up, he stayed in the house for a few days, ensuring he had adapted to the current temperature before he left the room.
And those zombies were still standing on the road like ice sculptures.
Of course, Shi Xingyu, with his good habit of not wasting, took all the Crystal Cores from the zombies.
But as soon as Shi Xingyu got rid of Wei Qiang, he was spotted by Gu Wanqing.
He ran into Gu Wanqing several times in a row.
Humans are now staying in the base and dare not come out.
In a temperature that can freeze even zombies, humans certainly would not dare to run around.
Except for Gu Wanqing.
At first, Shi Xingyu actively avoided Gu Wanqing.
But in August, Gu Wanqing deliberately blocked his way.
"Can we talk?" Gu Wanqing asked.
Shi Xingyu, hearing this, stopped his footsteps to leave.
He looked at Gu Wanqing, wondering what a human and himself, a zombie, had to talk about.
But he wasn't interested in Gu Wanqing.
Although he thought Gu Wanqing was very delicious food.
But this food was not for eating.
Since it can't be eaten, there's no need to bother.
But he was curious about what Gu Wanqing had done to make Yu Qingxian so afraid.
Gu Wanqing was not holding a weapon, but the youth behind her had already started to draw his sword.
"Sheng, don't worry." Gu Wanqing looked back at Wen Qingsheng and then spoke.
Upon hearing Gu Wanqing's words, Wen Qingsheng put the long sword back into its sheath.
"What do you want to talk about?" Shi Xingyu spoke, his voice slightly hoarse, apparently because he didn't talk much.
"Of course, it's about crowning you as king." Gu Wanqing was straightforward, and with just one sentence, she caught Shi Xingyu's attention.
As an advanced zombie, naturally, the only desire is to become stronger.
Becoming the king of zombies is something all advanced zombies strive for.
But he is a zombie, and she is human.
Humans can never trust zombies, and zombies will not trust humans either.
It can be said that zombies will not trust any human or other zombies.
So, even though Shi Xingyu reacted to what Gu Wanqing said,
Shi Xingyu just glanced at her and turned away.
Obviously, even if he was moved by Gu Wanqing's words, Shi Xingyu would not trust her.
So there was not a shred of hesitation when Shi Xingyu left.
Gu Wanqing watched Shi Xingyu leave without any expression.
On the other hand, Wen Qingsheng was somewhat puzzled: "Sister Wanqing, do you think the zombie can understand what you said? Can zombies really communicate?"
In Wen Qingsheng's eyes, zombies are just man-eating monsters.
Although he also thought that Sister Wanqing's idea was too fanciful,
If Sister Wanqing wants to do it, he wouldn't stop her.
