Bai Xizhu looked at Zhang Yiming, whose expression had suddenly returned to normal, completely bewildered.

"Who were you fighting with just now? We could sense it from far away," Bai Xizhu asked again.

That menacing aura terrified the nearby zombies, making them tremble in fear.

That's why Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai came over to see who was fighting.

By the time they arrived, the battle was over, leaving only scorched earth and a few zombie corpses.

Just then, a loud noise was heard in the distance. When they came over, they saw that Zhang Yiming had crashed his car into a tree.

“It was a high-level zombie, but it’s fine now,” Zhang Yiming said gently.

"High-level zombies? You're fighting over territory?" A look of surprise flashed in Leng Yebai's eyes.

He thought zombies were like animals, using scent to take over territory.

Animals mark their territory by urinating.

I wonder if the zombie king has this function.

"No, I just don't like the other person."

Zhang Yiming saw the surprise in Leng Yebai's eyes, and his lips twitched slightly.

I always feel like this guy is thinking about something weird.

Bai Xizhu felt that things were not so simple, but she did not press the issue to find out the truth.

If Zhang Yiming doesn't want to talk about it, then I won't ask. He must have his own reasons.

The east has already begun to subtly express its feelings; in a few hours, it will be dawn.

Bai Xizhu yawned.

She and Leng Yebai came over when they heard the noise; they hadn't slept well.

"You should go back and rest!"

Zhang Yiming glanced at the sleepy-eyed Bai Xizhu, a hint of regret flashing in his eyes.

I should have waited until further in the future to fight against my future self.

"Okay, drive slower in the future, and don't crash into trees again."

Bai Xizhu glanced at the large tree that had been broken off.

The era of superpowers has arrived; a single motorcycle can break a tree that would take several people to encircle.

Its power should not be underestimated.

Bai Xizhu felt that Zhang Yiming and Bai Yifan were becoming more and more alike, both driving quite recklessly.

"I see."

Zhang Yiming nodded slightly, his fingers twitching almost imperceptibly.

"Okay, let's go then!"

Seeing that Zhang Yiming always carried a melancholy aura, Bai Xizhu stepped forward, patted Zhang Yiming on the shoulder, and comforted him.

With a resentful look in his eyes, Leng Yebai immediately grabbed Bai Xizhu's fingers and covered them in his own palm.

Erase the aura belonging to a certain zombie king.

"Be careful when you encounter Wang Ge, and try to avoid direct confrontation. Just leave it to me."

Zhang Yiming rolled his eyes almost imperceptibly at Leng Yebai, then spoke to Bai Xizhu with a gentle smile on his face.

He already knew perfectly well from brainwaves that Bai Xizhu was being besieged.

“We’re pretty good too, he definitely can’t beat us. Thanks for last time.” Bai Xizhu smiled at Zhang Yiming.

It's always more satisfying to take revenge yourself.

“He has powerful backers, so don’t act rashly,” Zhang Yiming said earnestly.

“Okay, you should be careful too. His target isn’t just us,” Bai Xizhu said.

A gentle smile graced Zhang Yiming's face. "Okay."

"Let's go!"

Leng Yebai rolled his eyes at Zhang Yiming and pulled Bai Xizhu away.

Zhang Yiming watched the two figures disappear into the distance, his slender fingers lightly touching his shoulder as he let out a barely perceptible sigh.

Xiao Zhu looks very delicate, so why does his shoulder hurt so much?

Could it be that after taking licorice, his body became more sensitive to pain?

It hurt quite a bit after just a light pat?

Zhang Yiming was completely baffled.

Zhang Yiming could also faintly hear the voices of Bai Xizhu and the other person.

"Leng Yebai, when did you start carrying a sack?"

"I just carried it!"

"Put it down quickly, it looks heavy, and it's all black and dirty. Throw it away."

"Inside is a crystal core."

"What??? Where did you get so many crystal cores?"

I found it on the road.

Zhang Yiming: ...

You try picking it up again, you son of a bitch?

Footsteps could be heard again in the distance.

Bai Xizhu tiptoed, twisted Leng Yebai's ear, and walked towards Zhang Yiming.

"Put it down!" Bai Xizhu rolled her eyes at Leng Yebai.

Picking up things is a good thing, and I even picked up a bunch of crystal cores.

But it belonged to her old classmate, and she was too embarrassed to pick it up openly!

Cough cough, only she and Leng Yebai came here, so it's obvious they carried it away.

Leng Yebai reluctantly put the sack of crystal cores on his shoulder to the ground, bent over expressionlessly, and let Bai Xizhu tug at his ear.

"This isn't mine; it should belong to that high-level zombie. Since you found it, you can have it. I don't need it anyway."

Zhang Yiming touched his shoulder and said softly.

Neither he nor the Zombie King Zhang Yiming had the obsessive hobby of collecting crystal cores.

Zombie King Zhang Yiming collected every single crystal core. He didn't say what he was going to do with it, but Zhang Yiming knew.

He knew that the Zombie King, Zhang Yiming, wanted to collect more crystal cores, which would also serve as a backup plan for Xiaozhu.

In the apocalypse, crystal nuclei are always the most important thing.

"We can't accept these; they're all your spoils of war!"

Bai Xizhu waved her hand righteously, grabbed Leng Yebai's ear, and walked towards the bus.

Leng Yebai glanced at Zhang Yiming, his eyes full of smugness, and followed Bai Xizhu with his back bent and neck tilted.

Despite having his ear pulled by Xiao Zhu, Leng Yebai still felt very "rich".
