Qi Xing, Fragrant!

The one who threw the steel pipe was naturally Qi Xing.

He and Qin Feng led the horde of zombies to a house at the village entrance and locked the door from the outside.

Afterward, Qi Xing quickly rushed back, just in time to see Cao Yuan preparing to attack Jiang Zhaosu.

Even though he didn't know what had happened, what could his simple and cute little zombie, Fugui, possibly do to provoke him?

As long as they didn't eat people, they should be grateful.

Even if they did eat people.

That would be what those people deserved.

After all, for zombies to survive, they had to eat human flesh.

No matter how he thought about it, his Fugui was not wrong.

Cao Yuan, that scumbag, actually dared to lay hands on his property; he deserved to die.

Qi Xing's expression turned cold. He kicked the still howling Cao Yuan to the ground and drew a dagger from his waist.

He had already felt murderous intent earlier, but he had only restrained himself to slice off one of Cao Yuan's ears, thinking that killing this scumbag instantly would be too easy for him.

Right, Fugui also had a few rat underlings.

Why not tie this person's head and limbs to those mutated giant rats and let them run in all directions?

He had only heard of dismemberment by five horses; he hadn't seen dismemberment by five rats yet.

That scene would surely be spectacular.

But before that, he wanted to dig out one of this scumbag's eyes.

Just as Qi Xing bent down to make his move, a stammering voice came from above: "Brother..."

Jiang Zhaosu could tell from Qi Xing's eyes that he was itching to torture someone again.

Although she also felt that this beast Cao Yuan deserved his fate, now was not the best time for venting.

Fearing that Qi Xing might act impulsively, she called out again in a rusty voice, "Brother..."

Then she met Qi Xing's suddenly raised black eyes.

While these changes were happening, Qin Feng was still rushing towards them.

As he ran, he was surprised in his heart.

He, a dignified Rank A Ability User, was actually slower than a healing ability user.

He was hundreds of meters behind Qi Xing.

By the time he arrived, Qi Xing had already climbed the wall, leaped onto the eaves in a few swift movements, and pulled Jiang Zhaosu into his arms.

Qin Feng stood where Qi Xing had been, looking in shock at Cao Yuan on the ground, his face covered in blood, clutching his right ear and screaming his lungs out, and asked sternly, "What happened?!"

Seeing Qin Feng approach, Cao Yuan, who had been frightened by Qi Xing's sinister expression, seemed to have found a savior.

Like a turtle flipping over, he rolled on the ground, grabbed Qin Feng's pant leg with his blood-stained hand, and then looked up at the rooftop with hatred and malice in his eyes, saying in pain:

"Brother Qin, that woman just pushed me off the roof, and Li Ronghua came and not only sliced off my ear but also tried to kill me with a knife! They're both terrible people!"

Qi Xing on the rooftop ignored Cao Yuan's accusations.

He was currently bending over, with one hand on Jiang Zhaosu's shoulder, and the other helping her wipe her eyes, his tone filled with the concern and worry of an older brother: "Fugui, are you alright? Are you injured anywhere?"

"Mmm..."

Upon smelling the blood, Jiang Zhaosu could no longer suppress her bloodthirsty desires. Her eyes turned red, and her fangs slightly protruded.

Fortunately, Qi Xing reacted quickly.

Upon seeing her appearance, Qi Xing immediately jumped onto the eaves to shield her. Pretending to wipe away her tears, he raised his hand and used his broad, warm palm to cover her alluring red pupils.

The two below probably hadn't noticed.

But Duan Yuanyuan was standing very close to them, and Jiang Zhaosu didn't know if she had noticed her abnormality.

"Husband, he started cursing me after you left! He even hit me and tried to touch me!"

With her vision covered by Qi Xing's warm, slender palm, Jiang Zhaosu heard Duan Yuanyuan complain to Qin Feng in a tearful voice.

"Look, I still have the finger marks he left on my neck!"

Jiang Zhaosu breathed a sigh of relief.

It seemed she hadn't been exposed.

Otherwise, with Duan Yuanyuan's timid nature, she would have screamed incessantly.

Qi Xing picked her up, gently stroking her short hair with one hand.

Jiang Zhaosu immediately cooperated, pretending to be frightened, burying her face in the man's neck to hide her cheeks, and making muffled sounds in her throat.

"Brother Qin, my Fugui is so timid she wouldn't even dare to kill an ant, how could she do something like this!"

Qi Xing also began to play his part, saying righteously, "Before I left, I repeatedly emphasized that my sister's safety was the most important thing. I would rather die than have my sister get hurt. Yet when I returned, I saw this person actually trying to attack my sister with his ability. Isn't it because he did something wrong and wanted to silence her?"

"The most terrifying thing in the apocalypse isn't zombies, it's the wickedness of human hearts. Being in a team with someone so malicious, I'd rather wander with my sister than stay here!"

Qin Feng's expression was uncertain as he looked at Cao Yuan, whose face was full of hatred, then at Duan Yuanyuan upstairs, whose neck was covered in finger marks and who was crying miserably.

He had long known that Cao Yuan harbored lustful desires for Duan Yuanyuan and often deliberately provoked her with harsh and insulting words.

But he didn't care.

To survive in the apocalypse, one needed clean water.

As a man, who didn't have some dirty desires?

Duan Yuanyuan was his woman now. No matter how much Cao Yuan verbally took advantage of her, he couldn't touch her. It was just a verbal release for him.

He hadn't expected this guy's ambition to grow.

Now he dared to lay hands on her. Would he dare to cheat on him and try to replace him in the future?

Qin Feng grew angrier the more he thought about it. It wasn't that he was angry about Duan Yuanyuan being insulted, but that Cao Yuan dared to challenge his position and authority within the team.

He lifted the scrawny Cao Yuan off the ground like a chick and slapped him hard. "You scumbag, what did I tell you when I left?"

"I told you to protect Yuanyuan and Brother Li's sister! You can't even do this simple thing! Useless!"

"You dare to cheat on me? I think you've got more guts than a bear!"

Qin Feng slapped Cao Yuan's face again and again.

As an attack-type ability user, his strength was far greater than that of ordinary people. One slap made Cao Yuan's cheeks swell, blood spurt from his mouth, and soon his eyes glazed over, and he fainted.

Qin Feng threw Cao Yuan, whose face was swollen into a pig's head, to the ground. He looked up at Qi Xing, who was holding Jiang Zhaosu upstairs, and said, "I'm sorry, Brother Li. I didn't think this through this time. I've already taught him a lesson."

"But the apocalypse is dangerous, and there's strength in numbers. We still need Cao Yuan for tomorrow's plan, so we'll give him another chance. If he makes the same mistake again, I will personally kill him!"

When luring the zombies earlier, Qin Feng had already witnessed Qi Xing's abilities.

With the enhancement of Qi Xing's ability, the lightning balls he unleashed were more powerful than ever, easily killing a large group of zombies!

If he could maintain this state tomorrow, he could easily snatch the crystal cores and the space from that couple. Then he would have endless resources.

Food, water, medicine, everything he wanted was in that space. Why would he need to bring this group of losers?

For his future happiness, Qin Feng said to Qi Xing with feigned sincerity, but in his heart, he was plotting. Once he got the space tomorrow, he would kill these people to silence them and then find a new group of stronger teammates.

This way, he wouldn't have to worry about the news of his space leaking out like it did with that couple.

Qi Xing seemed to be moved by his sincere words. His stern expression softened, and after some hesitation, he said, "Alright, I'll trust you one more time, Brother Qin."

After moving to a new residence, Qi Xing, using the excuse of not wanting to see Cao Yuan again, took Jiang Zhaosu to the room next to Qin Feng's, just like last night.

Once he was alone in the room, Jiang Zhaosu lifted her head from Qi Xing's neck and jumped out of his arms.

Qi Xing took a handkerchief and wiped his wet neck, saying helplessly, "Fugui, your drool is enough to bathe my neck."

Jiang Zhaosu's eyes hadn't fully turned black yet. Her eyes were red, and her fangs were bared as she awkwardly slurped her saliva.

She was a zombie, after all. Such a delicious piece of meat was right at her lips. Who wouldn't drool?

She was enduring it with great difficulty, okay!

"You... smell... good..."

Jiang Zhaosu looked at Qi Xing, drooling.

Qi Xing smiled at her. "Fugui means I smell too good, and it's my fault?"

Mmm.

Jiang Zhaosu wiped her mouth with her sleeve and nodded her head.

She hadn't eaten for almost two days. How could she not find Qi Xing appetizing?

Qi Xing knew this too. He looked at Jiang Zhaosu's skin, which was much duller and had lost its luster compared to two days ago. A thought struck him. "Want some, Fugui?"

Qi Xing took out a dagger from his waist and unhesitatingly cut his palm. Red blood instantly seeped from the wound.

He extended his hand to Jiang Zhaosu and smiled, "Come on?"
