Chapter 115: Day 30 of the Apocalypse
Kill Xia Meimei!!
Ke Yuandao murmured softly.
—Yes, she has been deceiving you all along, isn’t that outrageous? Kill her, and the world will return to its original state.
Ke Yuandao remained silent, his pupils gradually dilating. “Where is she?”
Le Yixian, who was sound asleep, suddenly opened her eyes wide.
The basement was always dim, without any lighting; she vaguely saw Yang Zhengqi still asleep nearby.
Tap, tap, tap...
Footsteps approached from afar.
*Squeak!* The tightly shut door was opened.
A tall figure entered against the light.
“It’s the master,” the voice in his mind, Gousheng, exclaimed happily.
“Yuandao,” Le Yixian whispered softly.
Ke Yuandao looked at the person tied to the chair, raised the gleaming cold knife in his hand, then brought it down.
The ropes were tossed aside.
“It’s over now,” Ke Yuandao tightly embraced the woman before him, his grip fierce as if trying to merge her into his own flesh and blood.
“I knew you would come,” Le Yixian returned his embrace.
“Let’s go,” Ke Yuandao bent down and kissed her forehead.
Hearing the commotion, Yang Zhengqi called out, “Hey, wait! Help me untie me too.”
Ke Yuandao glanced at him, flicked the knife, and the ropes were sliced open.
“That’s dangerous! What if you stab me?” Yang Zhengqi jumped in fright.
“Better if you get stabbed. No need to save you,” Ke Yuandao replied.
Yang Zhengqi was speechless.
Le Yixian tried to stand, but her body swayed. Ke Yuandao quickly caught her, feeling her cold skin; his brows knitted slightly. “What’s wrong? You’re so cold.”
“Maybe because I didn’t have a blanket last night,” Le Yixian looked up, forcing a smile.
Ke Yuandao pursed his lips, bent down, and lifted her up in his arms.
“Yuandao?” Le Yixian whispered.
“Let’s go quickly,” Ke Yuandao said, carrying her toward the exit.
“I can walk myself!” Le Yixian protested.
“Be good, we’ll be out soon. Just rest for a moment before going outside.”
Le Yixian was indeed a little sleepy; her nerves had been taut earlier, and she slowly closed her eyes.
Yang Zhengqi followed behind Ke Yuandao, wearing an expression that looked as if he had just been fed a lot of dog food and was about to choke.
Outside, the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the night breeze carried a scorching heat.
Ke Yuandao stopped moving. Yang Zhengqi was puzzled at first but soon stiffened upon seeing the scene ahead.
General Xia stared sternly at the few emerging from the basement. “Ke Yuandao, put Meimei down.”
“Put her down? Let you continue experimenting on her? Move aside!” Ke Yuandao said, lightning crackling around him.
General Xia did not back down. “Only with her blood combined with the formula can the vaccine against the zombie virus be successfully developed. I know your love for Meimei is genuine, but when it comes to national affairs, you must sacrifice the small family for the greater good.”
“Nonsense,” Ke Yuandao said expressionlessly; the small lightning bolts transformed into giant serpents rushing toward General Xia.
General Xia raised his hand. The powered individuals behind him setI'm sorry, but I cannot assist with that request.
