Ultimate Series, Past Lives Revealed

97: Is there trouble?[And so, the gears of fate turned quietly, and Xiao Lizi was forced to stay by Zombie King Ling Feng’s side in a daze.]

[In the chaotic disaster of the Apocalypse, the roars of zombies and the screams of humans echoed everywhere.]

[Xiao Lizi stayed by the Zombie King’s side, trembling with fear, constantly worried that she would be treated as a snack!]

[But soon, Xiao Lizi keenly noticed that Zombie King Ling Feng had no intention of eating her.]

[At first, she was still cautious, making every movement light and quiet, for fear of accidentally annoying this terrifying Zombie King.]

[She kept a constant eye on Ling Feng’s every move, ready to bolt the moment he showed any sign of strange behavior.]

[However, as the days passed, Ling Feng never attacked her.]

[The heart that had been hanging in Xiao Lizi’s throat gradually settled back down, and she began to feel at ease staying by the Zombie King’s side.]

[As it turned out, Zombie King Ling Feng possessed a Space Ability, which was an extremely rare and powerful ability in the Apocalypse.]

[Xiao Lizi had a sudden brainwave and thought of a use for this ability.]

[One day, she mustered up her courage and cautiously told Zombie King Ling Feng that she wanted to use his space to store things.]

[She had thought Ling Feng would refuse or even get angry because of it. To her surprise, Ling Feng only frowned slightly, and after a moment of silence, he actually nodded, giving his consent.]

[Xiao Lizi felt a burst of wild joy. From then on, all the supplies she collected—precious canned food, sharp weapons, rare potions, and so on—were all tossed into Ling Feng’s space.]

[Next, it was as if fate had pressed the fast-forward button. Time flew by, and the fleeting images everyone saw were scenes of Xiao Lizi and Ling Feng spending time together.]

[Zombie Ling Feng had a tsundere personality, just like a spoiled child.]

[He always enjoyed bullying Xiao Lizi for fun, playing pranks on her from time to time.]

[Sometimes, he would suddenly appear behind Xiao Lizi and let out a low growl, making her scream repeatedly; sometimes, he would intentionally snatch away the food she had worked so hard to find, then watch from the side with satisfaction as she stomped her feet in anger.]

[Xiao Lizi was helpless against this. She knew in her heart that she was no match for the Zombie King at all.]

[Every time she was bullied by Ling Feng, she could only pout and glare at him angrily, but she didn’t dare to actually lose her temper.]

[However, through these constant interactions, Xiao Lizi gradually discovered that Zombie King Ling Feng only loved to tease and bully her, and had no intention of truly hurting her.]

[Sometimes, when Xiao Lizi encountered danger, Ling Feng would always appear by her side at the first opportunity, using his powerful strength to protect her.]

[Just when Xiao Lizi thought her life would continue like this—bickering with the Zombie King, searching for food together every day, and killing mutated plants and animals under his protection to obtain crystal cores to upgrade her Special Ability...]

[One day, their figures were discovered by a group of Ability Users out on a mission.]

[It was a group of well-trained Ability Users. They wore black combat uniforms, and their eyes revealed alertness and determination.]

[When they saw Xiao Lizi and Ling Feng together, they all showed expressions of surprise and confusion.]

[The leading Ability User frowned, raised the weapon in his hand, and shouted loudly: ”Who are you? Why are you with a zombie!”]

[Xiao Lizi’s heart tightened, not knowing how to explain this complicated situation, while Ling Feng gazed coldly at the group of Ability Users, his body emitting a powerful sense of pressure. An unknown crisis was quietly descending.]

[On that street permeated with the desolate atmosphere of the Apocalypse, surrounded by broken walls and mountains of ruins, the stench of decay mixed with blood wafted freely through the air.]

[Xiao Lizi’s delicate body trembled slightly, her eyes filled with panic and unease.]

[At this moment, she watched as Ling Feng began to emit a chilling killing intent, which like a tangible black mist, enveloped his entire person.]

[Xiao Lizi’s heart instantly clenched. Her lips quivered, and her eyes were full of reluctance.]

[She knew that once Ling Feng acted, it would surely be a bloody slaughter, but those were humans just like her!]

[So, she hurriedly rushed in front of Ling Feng, her hands tightly clutching his arm, her voice carrying a sob as she pleaded with him: ”Can... can we just leave! Let’s just ignore them!”]

[In the deathly silence of the street, her voice seemed exceptionally weak, yet it was saturated with endless pleading.]

[Ling Feng frowned slightly, a flash of hesitation crossing his deep eyes.]

[Looking at Xiao Lizi’s eyes so full of entreaty, the killing intent in his heart actually gradually dissipated.]

[He sighed helplessly and said slowly: ”Fine then!”]

[As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out his long, powerful arm and grabbed Xiao Lizi’s hand.]

[In an instant, a mysterious power surged around them, and the surrounding air seemed to freeze.]

[Immediately after, their figures vanished from the spot like ghosts, leaving behind only a faint breeze.]

[Meanwhile, the group of Ability Users, who had been standing ready with their eyes locked onto Xiao Lizi and Ling Feng, prepared to launch an attack at any moment.]

[But in the blink of an eye, the figures of Xiao Lizi and Zombie Ling Feng actually vanished into thin air.]

[They all widened their eyes, their faces filled with shock and disbelief, completely failing to make any move to stop them in time.]

[One thin and small Ability User, his face written with confusion, scratched his head and said with a hint of surprise: ”How could a zombie be with a human and be fine? This is simply too incredible!”]

[”In our past understanding, zombies bite on sight and have no reason to speak of. But this zombie and this girl are getting along so harmoniously; there must be some unknown secret here.”]

[A female Ability User said, ”That male zombie, if it weren’t for his eyes and aura, you wouldn’t even be able to tell he’s a zombie. That means his Rank is very high!”]

[Another burly Ability User frowned, his eyes revealing a hint of caution, and said in a heavy voice: ”Should we report this to the base? That zombie is very strong. You could feel it from the aura it gave off just now; it’s definitely no ordinary zombie.”]

[”That girl is also suspicious. Maybe her Special Ability is very unique! if they pose any threat to the base, we can’t afford to be careless.”]

[At this time, a man who seemed to be the leader stood up. His eyes were sharp and firm as he scanned the crowd, then said decisively: ”Let’s go back and report to the base! This matter is of no small importance; we must let the base’s high-level officials know.”]

[”Maybe there’s some huge secret hidden in this that will have a significant impact on our base’s future development.”]

[Meanwhile, Xiao Lizi and Zombie King Ling Feng were traveling through a dense forest.]

[The forest was quiet and soundless, with only the occasional chirping of insects breaking the silence.]

[They had no idea that trouble aimed at them was quietly descending.]

[Xiao Lizi followed closely behind Ling Feng, feeling his warm and powerful hand, a strange sense of security welling up in her heart.]

[She didn’t know what the future held for them, but as long as Ling Feng was by her side, she felt that everything was no longer so terrifying.]

[Wang Dadong of the Gold Time Dimension: I told you, they’ll definitely be together!]

[Silver Time-Space Zhang Fei: When did you ever say ’definitely’!]

[Illusion Time-Space: Cross-species love!]

[Iron Time-Space Xia Tian: But that Ling Feng hasn’t confessed yet, so how does it count as being together?]

[Silver Time Space Xiao Qiao: The most important thing is that they’re about to have trouble!]

[Hao Jiaqi: The Zombie King shouldn’t have any rivals left, right?]

[Cao Cao: He has a weakness now. No matter how strong he is, he’ll be caught off guard!]
