“I…I’ll go!”

These two words rolled out from between Su Wan's teeth.

Lu Shiyan's silence carried a weight, pressing on her. The invisible murderous aura was so thick that it almost condensed into substance.

She knew very well that there was only one outcome for disobedience - death.

Right away, immediately.

And outside the door, those roaring monsters may still have a glimmer of hope.

The living room was dead silent. The servants even breathed softly as they watched Su Wan move.

Her face was as pale as paper, and every step she took felt like she was walking on the edge of a knife as she moved towards the door that was shaking continuously and looked like it would burst at any time.

The onlookers' eyes fell on her back, filled with pity, fear, and a sense of relief.

Fortunately, the person who was pushed out to feed the monster was not me.

Lu Shiyan did not move at all, just stood in the middle of the living room, at a perfect distance.

Su Wan stepped out of the villa, into the garden, and walked to the gate, pressing her back against the cold metal door. Her palms were wet and cold, covered in cold sweat.

Outside the door, the roar from the rotten throat and the noise of sharp nails scraping against the door, one sound after another, were like heavy hammers hitting her eardrums and heart.

Holding the Swiss Army Knife in his hand, the handle became slippery due to sweat and almost slipped out of his hand.

Su Wan made up his mind, clenched his teeth, stretched out his hand and pulled open the bolt!

“Crash——”

A withered, black, and rotten arm reached in first, with twisted fingers scratching madly at the air. Immediately afterwards, a swollen, deformed face covered with purple and black corpse spots squeezed in!

The rotten meat mixed with some indescribable stench rushed into his nose, and his stomach instantly turned upside down. Su Wan suppressed the urge to vomit and the beating heartbeat in his chest.

She captured the extremely brief moment of stagnation that the zombie experienced as it squeezed through the crack in the door.

“Puff!”

She burst out with all her strength, aimed the small Swiss Army knife at the zombie's empty eye socket, and stabbed it hard!

There was a muffled sound, followed by a splash of turbid and smelly liquid, which splashed on her face and neck.

The touch was disgusting, as if the skin was burned by something dirty, the stench went straight to the top of the head, and the stomach was churning.

The zombie's movements suddenly froze, and it made a last meaningless "ho ho" sound from its throat before collapsing.

But there is more than one outside the door!

Almost without a pause, the second zombie roared even more violently and slammed into the crack of the door even more fiercely!

She wanted to draw her knife, but found that the blade was deeply embedded in the skull of the first zombie and was stuck, and she couldn't pull it out for a while!

The second zombie had squeezed in half of its body, opened its big black mouth, dripped with smelly saliva, and pounced straight at her!

The instinct to survive overwhelmed everything.

She subconsciously stretched out her empty left hand and faced the monster, with only one thought in her mind - push it away! Get out of here!

An invisible force, extremely weak but real, surged out from her palm.

There was an almost undetectable delay in the zombie's forward movement, as if it had hit an invisible, intangible film!

Just a snap of the fingers!

The body's reaction is faster than thinking.

Su Wan took advantage of the slight resistance, staggered back a step, and took out another Tang sword from the space.

She held the dagger tightly in both hands, aimed at the other intact eye of the second zombie, and stabbed it with all her strength! There was another muffled sound that made people's teeth ache.

The second zombie also collapsed, falling on top of the body of its companion.

The two rotten bodies overlapped, completely blocking the gap in the door.

A strong, suffocating stench mixed with the smell of dirty blood spread and rushed straight to the head.

My stomach churned even more.

Su Wan could no longer hold back, and suddenly bent down, and with a "wow" sound, he vomited out everything in his stomach, even the sour bile.

My legs felt like they were filled with lead and could no longer support my body.

She slid down the wall and collapsed on the cold, dirty floor.

Her face was wet and she raised her hand to wipe it away.

It's a cold liquid.

It turned out that she had burst into tears without knowing when.

Yes, after entering this damn book, every day I was struggling on the edge of despair and death? My tense nerves had already become fragile.

Su Wan raised her head stiffly and looked towards the living room door.

I don't know when Lu Shiyan came over.

He stood a few steps away, quietly watching her miserable appearance.

The gaze that fell on her seemed to have something more than before, heavy and scrutinizing.

Su Wan held onto the rough wall, trembling, and barely managed to stand up.

My legs were still shaking uncontrollably.

She lowered her head, avoiding his gaze, her voice hoarse from exhaustion and fear: "...solved."

Lu Shiyan did not respond. He stepped forward and walked straight past her.

He raised his foot wearing expensive leather shoes and kicked the zombie corpses piled at the door to the side as if he was kicking away garbage on the roadside. His movements were casual but full of disgust.

He looked out the door.

There, a few zombies heard the noise here and began to stagger towards the gate, trying to rush in.

Lu Shiyan just raised his hand. There was no extra movement, and it was not even clear what he did.

A blinding flash of lightning suddenly lit up, tearing through the air like a silver snake, instantly enveloping the zombies that were rushing towards them.

Crackling.

The smell of burning mixed with the stench of decay became even stronger.

When the lightning faded, the zombies had turned into charcoal emitting black smoke. They fell to the ground, twitching slightly, and were no longer able to make any sound.

He reached out and closed the deformed and scratched door, making a harsh metallic friction sound.

He picked up a heavy metal bar leaning against the wall and used it to push the door shut from the inside.

"It seems that you are more useful than I thought."

He turned around and looked down at Su Wan, who was almost unsteady on her feet. His tone was flat, and no emotion could be heard.

Su Wan still kept her head down, cold sweat soaking the fabric on her back, which stuck to her skin, feeling cold and sticky.

She could feel his eyes on her, making her feel uncomfortable.

There was silence for a moment.

Lu Shiyan's voice sounded again, but this time it was as soft as a sigh. "For the sake of your child, you have to try your best to live, right?"

The words were spoken softly, but they caused Su Wan to shudder.

He paused and took another step forward.

He was almost right in front of her, with an invisible sense of oppression.

A cold aura belonging to him enveloped him.

"So, why did you lie just now?"

With a buzzing sound, something seemed to explode in Su Wan's mind.

It turns out that he knew it all.

Her lame excuse for being late was just a transparent performance in front of him, and he knew exactly what she was doing in the room.

The two still warm zombie bodies at the door are the punishment.

The punishment came so swiftly and so bloodily.

The coldness climbed up my spine and froze my limbs.

"So... have you learned your lesson?"

His voice was flat, as if he was stating a simple fact.

Su Wan felt her throat was extremely dry. She swallowed but couldn't make any sound. She could only nod numbly.

At this moment, a clear roar of a car engine suddenly came from outside the high wall of the villa!
