Zombie Sister Strategy

The big fish danced in the air and stirred up the energy swirls. At that moment, Lin Qiao grasped the opportunity to flee toward the other side of the river. As expected, her showing up immediately caught the big fish’s attention. It turned around and fixed its eyes on her as it opened its mouth filled with sharp teeth and uttered a roar.

In the meantime, it lashed its tail and charged at Lin Qiao.

Lin Qiao was, of course, no slower than the fish. Without those energy swirls to hinder her, she flew to the other side of the river within a blink. She didn’t stop there though, as the big fish was still chasing her.

“Roar!” The fish flapped its fins, which were serving as wings at the moment, and followed closely behind Lin Qiao as it swiftly came at her with its mouth wide open. She took a sudden turn and wielded an arm to throw a huge sphere of black fire into the fish’s mouth.

“Hrrr…” The big fish caught the black fire with its mouth. As a result, dark smoke rose from its mouth.

It not only missed its target, but also had its mouth filled with the awful-tasting black fire. The big fish angrily let out a breath and exhaled the dark smoke before turning around to charge at her again.

At that point, Lin Qiao had no interest in playing with the fish at all. It would take her quite a while to kill it, and judging by how it caught the dark fire with its mouth and then let it out, she figured the fire wasn’t able to hurt it at all!

Since she came down to the underground world, Lin Qiao had been feeling that her power had grown much weaker! Her power was almost invincible on the earth’s surface, but it was barely helpful here!

However, even though she might not be able to defeat the big fish, she could run away! It would be a lot easier for her to run on the ground than in the air!

Lin Qiao landed on the ground and then turned invisible. The invisible her darted through the weird plants and raised her head to look at the flying fish in the air. As she expected, the big fish started to hover in the air as it had lost its target. It flew from side to side, searching around for her traces with its eyes.

After looking around a few times and failing to spot anything, the fish suddenly swooped.

“Hrr…” Its enormous body brushed across the plants, and its pair of fins cut some plants into pieces. The fish started a fierce gust of wind, pressing the plants down on the ground.

Lin Qiao glanced at the fish, which was flying aimlessly in the air, and turned to keep moving forward. While moving, her heart started to sink. A random fish that came out of the river could be at level-eight already, and earlier, she had sensed some other level-eight vibes. How many level-eight creatures existed in the underground world?

Those level-eight underground creatures weren’t as easy to deal with as the ones on the earth’s surface. They didn’t have superpowers, but their bodies were ridiculously strong, and that made them extremely hard to kill. Besides, they might release their gifted power in a life-threatening moment, like what Strong did against Wu Chengyue.

They probably wouldn’t use that kind of power until the last moment, but once they used it, their enemies would be in trouble.

Lin Qiao more and more strongly felt that the underground creatures were hard to kill. And there was still no way to deal with the underground creatures which were now on the earth’s surface.

Things would be under control if they ate zombies only, but the problem was that they ate everything! They ate everything on the earth’s face, probably including earth! After all, the earth on the earth’s surface was much softer and smoother than the rock underground.

Since no superpower could hurt them, Lin Qiao had no choice but to try to dig their weaknesses from where they came.

The level-eight underground creatures were already so hard to deal with, and Lin Qiao had no idea what to do to the level-nine one even if it could be found. Gradually, she started to feel a strong pressure.

As Lin Qiao moved away from the river and the big fish, which was still flying in the air, two spots that were about thirty meters parted from each other in an enormous pit located thousands of miles away from her shook slightly a few times. Then, the earth in the two areas suddenly turned up, exposing a pair of huge, mirror-like eyes.

The pair of eyes blinked, and then from between them, a puff of sand was sent into the air along with a puffing noise.

A strong vibe suddenly spread in all directions.

Then, the pair of eyes seemed to look up at the air. After staying like that quietly for one minute, they closed again and the pit fell back into stillness.

The giant pit was miles in radius like a dried lake, around two-hundred meters deep.

At that very moment, Lin Qiao suddenly felt panicky. She quickly landed on a plant and stood straight as she furrowed her brows and closed her eyes to sense the surrounding environment.

That panicky feeling lasted only about a second. It was gone by the time she stopped moving, but it was imprinted in her mind.

Every time she had that kind of feeling, a great crisis would come afterward. That meant the deeper she went, the more dangerous the journey would become. But of course, even though she was aware of how dangerous the journey might be, she could not shrink back.

She stood there and spent a short while sensing before leaping forward again.

Behind her, the red cat was pacing around anxiously on the other side of the river. It was moving in circles with its head reared up to look into the direction that Lin Qiao was moving in. Its tail was dropped to the ground.

It turned left, then right, raised its head and turned left again. Then it went right and raised its head again. Its pair of large red eyes were filled with anxiety. After making a few circles, it couldn’t help but make a few steps toward Lin Qiao, but then it stepped back.

“Aooo… Looo… Aooo…” It shrank back as it raised its head high, opened its mouth, and uttered a series of resonant roars, seemingly to deliver a message to Lin Qiao.

As same as the cat, the other underground creatures had started to restrain their vibes as well. Even the big flying fish had also quickly dived back into the water. Even the mutated plants which were able to move their branches and leaves had curled up without moving even an inch.

Lin Qiao, who was running forward, suddenly stopped again and turned to look back with confusion.

She seemed to have heard Red’s voice. Did she mishear?
