"Put some clothes on first!"
Xiao Wan got up and walked out, her face flushed red. Jiang Yang quickly pulled on his clothes, then checked Ye Qingwei's condition.
Sure enough, a line of text appeared before Jiang Yang's eyes.
Name: Ye Qingwei. Constitution: 6. Spirit: 7. Agility: 5. Profession: None. Level: Level 0. Ability: Heart of Healing. Skill: None. Loyalty: 85 (will leave if below 60; maximum is 100).
So this was Plunderer's Insight?
Jiang Yang fixed his gaze on Ye Qingwei's ability. Heart of Healing—it was exactly the same as in the original novel.
In the original novel, the ability Ye Qingwei awakened was Heart of Healing.
It was an extremely powerful healing ability. Because of it, Ye Qingwei healed herself incredibly quickly and could also heal others.
Its healing effect was ten times stronger than the skills of healing-type Professionals!
In the original novel, Ye Fan had escaped death many times because Ye Qingwei was there.
Yet this girl had awakened without making the slightest fuss. If not for Plunderer's Insight, he would not have noticed at all.
"Big Brother Jiang, why are you staring at me?"
Ye Qingwei's face reddened. Xiao Wan had just caught them, and now Jiang Yang was still staring at her so intently while she had not even gotten dressed.
"Such a pretty little wife—I have to take a few extra looks, don't I?"
"Don't... don't talk nonsense!"
Ye Qingwei nearly jumped up in shy embarrassment, but in the next moment, Jiang Yang's large hands held her in place.
As Jiang Yang dressed Ye Qingwei, a question suddenly occurred to him.
Heart of Healing had an extremely fast self-healing rate. Did that mean Ye Qingwei had now become a completely untouched, innocent girl again?
A string of wicked thoughts rose in Jiang Yang's mind.
"Huh... it doesn't hurt anymore?!"
Jiang Yang's fantasies were interrupted by Ye Qingwei's delighted cry. He had thoroughly claimed the girl yesterday, but now all the lingering discomfort had vanished.
It was simply too miraculous!
Not only that, but the scars left from when her illness had suddenly flared up and her legs had gone weak, causing her to fall while walking, had all disappeared too!
Ye Qingwei's entire body was now as flawless and tender as white jade, making Jiang Yang secretly marvel at the power of Heart of Healing.
"According to the information we have, some people will awaken abilities when the Apocalypse arrives. Qingwei, give it a try. See if you can stand up by yourself."
The moment Jiang Yang finished speaking—
Ye Qingwei's breathing became rapid.
Stand up?!
That was the impossible dream she had always longed for!
According to the novel, Ye Qingwei had not been able to stand immediately at the beginning. Although her ability had awakened, recovering from her illness took time.
But now, because Ye Qingwei had received surgery in time, she should recover completely the instant her ability awakened!
Sure enough, Ye Qingwei swallowed nervously and carefully placed her delicate feet on the floor.
She could feel them!
At that moment, joy filled her heart.
In the next moment, with Jiang Yang supporting her, she stood up completely, and wild ecstasy instantly flooded her mind!
I stood up!
Overwhelmed with joy, Ye Qingwei could not suppress her emotions. She suddenly leaped into Jiang Yang's arms and took the initiative to kiss him.
"Big Brother Jiang, my legs are healed! I'm normal again!"
Honestly, seeing the girl so happy made Jiang Yang happy for her too.
But he was still a normal man, and certain contact inevitably stirred a reaction.
The girl seemed to feel something. Her pretty face instantly reddened like a ripe apple, and she shyly jumped away.
"Ahem." Jiang Yang knew this was not the time for that. He said seriously, "Qingwei, being able to stand again means you've probably awakened some kind of self-healing ability!"
As he spoke, Jiang Yang bit his finger and held it out before Ye Qingwei.
"If you can heal yourself, you should be able to heal others too. Try to see whether you can close my wound."
Jiang Yang had read the original novel, so he knew Ye Qingwei's ability.
But he could not reveal that now. He could only pretend not to know and guide Ye Qingwei into using her ability.
And Ye Qingwei's mind was now full of trust and dependence on Jiang Yang, so she immediately did as he said.
She stared at Jiang Yang's finger and silently focused on healing it.
A moment later, a trace of green light gathered in Ye Qingwei's hand. Then she placed her hand over Jiang Yang's finger. Before she even touched it, the wound closed from merely being illuminated.
What a powerful ability!
Jiang Yang was shocked inwardly and began deliberately guiding Ye Qingwei to use her ability.
Meanwhile, outside the room, Wu Lei looked through the window at the horrific scene below.
Severed limbs were everywhere. The dead had risen, dragging broken arms and mangled bodies as they searched everywhere for traces of the living.
"Those are Zombies."
Xiao Wan walked over. There were many films and television dramas about Zombies, but she had never imagined she would one day see such things for real.
At that moment, she remembered all the things Jiang Yang had told her to prepare.
Had the young master been preparing for this all along?
Inside a single apartment, Tang Ya curled up in the corner, her face deathly pale.
She had gotten up early to get ready and put on makeup, intending to find Jiang Yang.
But before she could even leave, the Apocalypse had arrived.
Realizing the danger, Tang Ya shut all the doors and windows and prepared to wait for rescue. Yet the screams coming from the hallway frightened her half to death.
The sound of chewing came from outside her door in waves. Something was outside her door!
"Are they those Zombies?"
Tang Ya's face was filled with terror. She was on the verge of collapse when a piercing sound suddenly rang out.
Something was scratching at her door!
Tang Ya instinctively screamed, but in the next instant, she clamped her hand over her mouth, refusing to let even the slightest sound escape.
Making a sound could very likely attract the Monsters' attention!
"What do I do?"
Tang Ya trembled all over. She looked toward the kitchen knives, a flash of madness appearing in her eyes.
She wanted to live. She had to live!
Two kilometers away from Tang Ya, Ye Fan sat in a hotel room with a fire axe in hand, panting heavily.
"I'll stay in this hotel tonight. It should quiet down by tomorrow, and then I'll head to Linjiang University!"
A vicious gleam flashed through Ye Fan's eyes. He took out paper and a pen and began listing the differences between his two sets of memories after being reborn.
The Butterfly Effect could not stop him from taking revenge.
The people who deserved to die would still die.
Jiang Yang would be the first to die. Tang Ya would be the second.
Inside a luxury hotel, Jiang Yang and the other three sat together for a meal.
"Young Master, can you tell us how you knew about the Apocalypse?"
Xiao Wan stared intently at Jiang Yang. Just moments ago, Jiang Yang had told them some information about the Apocalypse.
Wu Lei showed no reaction. Whatever Jiang Yang told him to do, he did.
Ye Qingwei was still immersed in the excitement of recovering her health. Only Xiao Wan kept watching Jiang Yang.
Name: Xiao Wan. Constitution: 9. Spirit: 7. Agility: 9. Profession: None. Level: Level 0. Ability: None. Skill: None. Loyalty: 99
Jiang Yang looked over Xiao Wan's information. Her loyalty was the highest among the three. Ye Qingwei's was 85, Wu Lei's was 82, while Xiao Wan's had actually reached 99.
"A few years ago, I established a foundation responsible for collecting information on the occult. It was originally just a hobby, but I never expected it to gather intelligence about the Apocalypse. What I expected even less was that the Apocalypse would really arrive today!"
Jiang Yang sighed, planning his next move in his mind.
By now, Ye Fan should have awakened his memories from his previous life. The obstacles Jiang Yang had placed in his way could only hold him back temporarily.
If nothing unexpected happened, Ye Fan should already be near Linjiang University.
Having read the original novel, Jiang Yang naturally knew where Ye Fan's opportunity at Linjiang University was. No one would obtain that opportunity anytime soon.
What Jiang Yang needed to plan now was something else. In the original novel, Ye Fan had once pursued a powerful person.
She was also from Linjiang University—the ace of the Kendo Club, Linjiang's School Beauty, Qiu Chan. This School Beauty was no ordinary person; in later years, she was known as the Sword Saintess.
She was a lone wanderer in the Apocalypse, belonging to the very strongest tier of survivors.
Even Ye Fan from the original novel had not been her match. In principle, this School Beauty could be considered Ye Fan's master.
It was just that this opportunity would not arise until several years into the Apocalypse.
But Jiang Yang did not care about that. It would be far too wasteful if a powerhouse like her did not join his harem... team!
A plan took shape in Jiang Yang's mind.
And at that moment, outside the luxury hotel, something resembling a lizard was crawling up the wall.
