Return to 'The Outcast'!

Swish!!!

Wu An took a single step forward and arrived directly in another world!

At this moment, Wu An scanned his surroundings.

This was a dense forest.

Furthermore, the time appeared to be night.

Beyond that, there was a factory not far away!

Which world is this?

Wu An was slightly stunned.

His current physical fitness was twice that of an ordinary person.

Naturally, his five senses, including his vision, were also far superior to those of a normal human.

Therefore, even though it was night, Wu An could still see many details clearly.

The factory in the distance had clearly been abandoned for many years and was long since derelict.

There were no traces of human activity nearby.

A factory?

Wu An narrowed his eyes.

This was a structure that had only appeared in the modern era.

In other words!

The current timeline should be from the modern era to the present day!

Also, although this factory has been abandoned for many years, judging by the traces it left behind!

It doesn't look like the early modern period!

So, does this world have a modern social background?

Wu An analyzed the situation calmly.

Although this was only his speculation, it was likely very close to the truth.

One had to remember that he had inherited the brain development level of Tasanya.

His thinking was clear and his considerations were comprehensive; he would not make the slightest mistake.

Even Sherlock Holmes could not compare to Wu An in this regard.

If placed in ancient times, Wu An would be a genius on par with Zhuge Liang.

He could anticipate the enemy's moves!

He could devise strategies from a thousand miles away!

Just as Wu An was deep in thought:

Ding... System notification... Mission issued...

Main Mission: Rescue Zhang Chulan!

Side Mission: Repel Zhang Lingyu!

The system's voice rang out indifferently.

Zhang Chulan?

Is this the world of The Outcast?

Wu An was shocked.

This was the first time he had traveled to a world he had already visited.

Moreover, this was a world Wu An had very much wanted to return to.

Combining the missions issued by the system with the environment here, I have a rough idea of which plot point this is!

Wu An rubbed his chin, his eyes filled with contemplation.

It shouldn't have been long since Wu An last left.

At this time, after returning to school, Zhang Chulan had met Feng Baobao again.

Furthermore, under Feng Baobao's coercion, he had signed a series of unequal treaties.

Afterward, Liu Yanyan, a descendant of the Liu Family, had agreed to Lv Liang's conditions in order to join the Quanxing organization, using a honey trap to kidnap Zhang Chulan and bring him here.

This must be the exact point in time.

Wu An looked up toward the abandoned factory in the distance.

This factory was the very place where Feng Baobao and Xia He of Quanxing had clashed in the anime.

As one of Quanxing's Four Madmen, Xia He can control others' lust!

Anyone who confronts her will be consumed by desire!

She's a proper demoness!

However, in the anime, Xia He had a relationship with Zhang Lingyu of the Celestial Master Mansion on Dancheng Mountain.

"The time frame is roughly clear!"

"Now, all that needs to be confirmed is Zhang Chulan's location!"

"Has he already been handed over to Lv Liang, or is he still on the way?"

Wu An thought to himself!

Suddenly!

Screech...

A van stopped not far away!

Immediately after, several people with stiff movements got out of the car, carrying someone!

Besides them, a vibrant young girl led the way!

Their target was the abandoned factory!

This vibrant young girl should be Liu Yanyan!

The sole successor of the Xiaoxi Corpse-Driving Liu Family!

To be honest, Wu An also possessed a Xiaoxi Corpse-Driving Manual!

He had obtained it from a Bronze Treasure Chest last time!

He hadn't used it yet!

"So that's where they are!"

Wu An's eyes lit up, and he immediately stepped forward!

The person being carried was Zhang Chulan!

Regardless, he had to complete the main quest first!

Thump thump thump...

Wu An didn't try to hide the sound of his footsteps!

Instantly, it caught Liu Yanyan's attention!

"Who's there?!"

Liu Yanyan stopped and shouted!

When she saw Wu An, she was stunned!

"It's you!"

"The one who disturbed me in the graveyard before, it seems to be you!"

Liu Yanyan recognized Wu An!

"Long time no see, Zhang Chulan!"

Wu An greeted the bound Zhang Chulan!

"You... are?!"

"Brother Wu An?"

Zhang Chulan's eyes widened in disbelief!

He never imagined he would meet Wu An again!

After all, Wu An's departure through that colorful passage had left him utterly shaken!

That colorful passage had given Zhang Chulan an extremely terrifying feeling!

Like an ant gazing at the starry sky!

This feeling was something even his grandfather, Zhang Xilin, couldn't compare to!

In fact, they weren't even on the same level!

"Liu Yanyan, right?"

"Leave Zhang Chulan to me, you can leave now!"

Wu An shifted his gaze to Liu Yanyan and said calmly!

"How do you know my name?"

Liu Yanyan was taken aback!

"Who doesn't know about the corpse-driving techniques of the Xiaoxi Liu Family?"

Wu An shrugged and said casually!

"Since you know I hail from the Liu Family of Xiaoxi, how dare you speak to me like that?!"

Liu Yanyan took a deep breath and let out a cold sneer.

Though she couldn't explain why, the young man before her gave her a very bad feeling!

But who was she, Liu Yanyan?

The dignified sole successor of the Liu Family!

How could she possibly fear Wu An?

"Don't think I don't know that the last time you killed those zombies, you didn't rely on your own strength!"

Liu Yanyan's tone was filled with disdain!

"It was only because I had other things to attend to at the time that I didn't bother with you!"

Liu Yanyan looked at Wu An with contempt and snapped her fingers with a sharp crack!

Instantly!

The soil on the surrounding ground split open, and one zombie after another burst forth, staring straight at Wu An!

"If I'm not mistaken, the power you used back then must have been a one-time consumable!"

Liu Yanyan sneered repeatedly!

"Is that so?"

Wu An smiled indifferently!

Liu Yanyan was right!

But what she hadn't anticipated was that the Wu An of today was no longer the Wu An who had to rely on a Vajra Talisman just to slay a zombie!

The current Wu An not only possessed four-dimensional attributes far exceeding his previous self, but he also held trump cards like the Origin of Qi and Conqueror's Haki!

He could likely be considered a powerhouse even among the Outsiders!

"Get him!"

Liu Yanyan's pretty face darkened as she issued the command!

The next moment, the zombies that had crawled from the ground lunged fiercely toward Wu An!

"With me personally overseeing this, let's see how you resist!"

Liu Yanyan was brimming with confidence!

Previously, Wu An was able to kill those zombies because, first, he had used power that didn't belong to him!

Second, she, Liu Yanyan, had not been personally present!

Therefore, at that time, the zombies could only follow the most basic commands, lacking any flexibility whatsoever!

But now, with her here, things were different!

Liu Yanyan believed that even if Wu An used that power again, she was confident she could block it!

"Brother Wu An, you?!"

Zhang Chulan was also filled with worry!

However, the very next moment!

Facing the assault of so many zombies, Wu An showed not a shred of fear!

System, use the Xiaoxi Corpse-Driving Manual!

Wu An chanted silently in his heart!

Instantly, the manual in the system space transformed into a stream of light and appeared in Wu An's mind!

At the same time, all the mysteries regarding the lineage of the Xiaoxi Corpse-Drivers became perfectly clear to him!

Every weakness and flaw of the zombies, along with everything else!

Wu An now had it all figured out!

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

In Wu An's eyes, this group of aggressive zombies no longer held a single secret!

"Heh..."

Wu An smiled calmly and took a step forward!

Under Liu Yanyan's incredulous gaze, Wu An did not retreat but instead charged toward the zombies!

Suddenly!

Crack!!

Crackle-crack!!!

PS: I have to head out for something today, so there should only be one chapter; I will make up for it with four chapters tomorrow!
