Chapter 58 Level 7 Zombie.

Although Mo Qi hadn't used these techniques much before, he found that once he started using them, he was quite adept at it.

Mo Qi deliberately leaned against the door, looking at Mo Xiu with a pitiful expression. He refused to believe that Mo Xiu would insist on staying to accompany that Bai Su, even in his current state.

Sure enough, upon seeing this, Mo Xiu hurriedly went over anxiously and asked, "Mo Qi, what's wrong? Are you alright?"

Upon hearing this, Mo Qi shook his head: "It's nothing, I just suddenly feel a little unwell..." As he spoke, he swayed a couple of times, looking as if he was about to collapse.

Mo Xiu quickly supported him, her face showing obvious worry.

Although Bai Su felt it was a bit sudden, he quickly advised Mo Xiu, "Since that's the case, you should help him back to rest quickly. Leave the night watch to us."

This time, Mo Xiu did not refuse Bai Su's kindness. She nodded to him and then took her 'sad' sweetheart back to her room.

Seeing Bai Su and Mo Xiu both looking completely convinced, Bu Zhengchen couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He thought to himself, "I'm definitely not the only man in this world who uses tricks to win over his partner. But this guy's acting skills are pretty good too, something I should learn from."

On the other side, as Mo Xiu helped Mo Qi back to his room, they encountered Cheng Cheng and the others. Seeing that his boss looked unwell, Cheng Cheng immediately went to help.

Fortunately, Xie Wu, who was standing next to him, understood Mo Qi's expression and pulled him back.

In the corner room on the second floor, only Mo Xiu and Mo Qi remained. Looking at the sickly-looking man lying on the bed, Mo Xiu felt her heart clench.

He hadn't seen the person opposite him so vulnerable in a long time, especially after Mo Qi regained his mobility.

"Why did this happen all of a sudden? What's wrong? Tell me quickly, is it a stomachache? Or did you catch a cold?"

As Mo Xiu spoke, she reached out and touched the man's forehead on the bed. His temperature was normal; he didn't have a fever.

Hearing the concern from the person beside him, Mo Qi felt much more at ease. Of course, he wasn't really upset, but he felt a little embarrassed to admit that he had been faking illness because he was jealous.

To be honest, this is really embarrassing for the Demon Lord. He lived for thousands of years in his previous life, so who knows how he could do something so childish?

No matter what she thought in her heart, Mo Qi still appeared weak and vulnerable when facing Mo Xiu.

He grabbed the other person's wrist and pulled him into his arms, saying repeatedly, "I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong, I just feel uncomfortable."

"I'm probably exhausted from all the running around these past few days, and my energy is low. Mo Xiu, give me a hug, let me lean on you for a bit and I'll feel better."

The man's tone sounded like he was being coquettish, and he didn't care how big he was; he just kept trying to snuggle into Mo Xiu's arms.

However, they overlooked the fact that he was no longer as thin as when he first met Mo Xiu. Mo Qi was already a bit taller than the person opposite him, and he had a large frame, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

When he first arrived in this world, his body was damaged and he was very thin. But now, so much time has passed, and his health has long been restored by Mo Xiu.

He's not only eating his main meals well every day, but he also snacks constantly, so how could he possibly lose weight? Moreover, in order to better withstand the power of his divine soul, Mo Qi also pays great attention to body tempering.

Although it wasn't the traditional form of exercise that most people considered desirable, his physique had indeed become noticeably stronger. So much so that he now appeared slightly more muscular than Mo Xiu.

Seeing the person in her arms like this, Mo Xiu stretched out her arms to try to encircle the person completely in her arms, but due to the man's size, it was really difficult.

In the end, she could only sigh helplessly in her heart and whisper to Mo Qi, "Okay, stop crawling, can we just hold each other like this?"

As Mo Xiu spoke, she gently patted the man's back. Mo Qi obediently stopped and took a deep breath.

Breathing in the scent of his beloved, he let out a satisfied sigh, then said with some dissatisfaction, "Are you and that Bai Su really that close?"

You're still keeping vigil with him every night, are you trying to abandon me?"

These words sounded so sour, and Mo Xiu couldn't help but want to laugh.

He felt that Mo Qi's words sounded like he was jealous. But realizing this only made him feel better.

Because he likes Mo Qi, and Mo Qi is willing to be jealous of him, doesn't that prove that he also has feelings for him?

"Why would you think that? That's not true. No matter what happens, I will never abandon you," Mo Xiu said with a helpless smile.

Although Bai Su was also a very good brother to him, no matter how important he was, he couldn't compare to the person on the other side.

Mo Qi is the person she loves; they've been through so much together. Even in her past life, he was the one who stayed by her side until the very end.

It can be said that Mo Qi's importance in Mo Xiu's heart far exceeds that of himself.

Hearing Mo Xiu say that, Mo Qi gave a satisfied hum.

He wasn't unaware that his current behavior was somewhat unreasonable, but he had also heard the Grand Elder say that those who were Daoist partners weren't exactly reasonable.

Moreover, he was thick-skinned enough that he was only embarrassed for a second or two before he became calm again, even feeling as if he had mastered a new skill.

Because they had discussed acting together with Bai Su, it meant that they would soon have a tough battle to fight.

So when Mo Xiu saw that Mo Qi was indeed alright and it was getting late, she discussed with him that there were some things she needed to discuss with Bai Su again tomorrow.

Fortunately, this time, perhaps because he was thinking of Mo Qi, Mo Xiu returned after dark, but there was no catching up; they only talked about business.

Mo Xiu then informed the rest of the team about the incident, so he returned as soon as possible.

As for how Mo Qi knew about this, it was naturally because he eavesdropped using his divine sense...

Seeing that it was getting late, Mo Xiu quickly got into bed and coaxed the person in bed to rest with Mo Qi.

The two lay there for a while, and their positions changed without them realizing it. Mo Qi was now holding the other person, and Mo Xiu, after falling asleep, somehow snuggled into his arms instead.

Looking at the young man sleeping peacefully in his arms, Mo Qi's breathing softened considerably. He leaned over and kissed the forehead of the person in his arms, feeling the warm touch of the other's skin.

His rough fingertips slid across the other's cheek, and finally, unable to resist, he gently kissed Mo Xiu's lips.

Mo Xiu's aura was always very clean, which Mo Qi liked very much. Even the other's lips had a refreshing taste when kissed.

My heart skipped a beat, but more than that, I felt a simple yet blissful sensation. This kind of sweetness is something that no matter how high one's cultivation level or how many enemies one defeats, it cannot be obtained; only the people around me can give me this.

And so, holding her beloved, Mo Qi soon drifted into a dream along with the person beside her.

The next morning, after everyone in both teams woke up, Mo Xiu had just led Mo Qi out of the room when they saw Bai Su coming to greet them from the opposite side.

The other people from the Mountain and River Base were very happy to see Bai Su and his team. After all, if the two teams cooperated, their safety would be enhanced by another layer.

Mo Xiu and Bai Su exchanged a few words, and then the group got into the car and set off from the resort.

On the way, the teams from the two bases cooperated well, making the journey even smoother and faster than the way there.

So in the afternoon, they arrived at the location of the pharmaceutical factory in the suburbs.

Mo Xiu and his group had received some intelligence before they arrived, but when they arrived, they found that the place was not as they had been told, and was not full of zombies.

The surroundings were eerily quiet, which only added to the unsettling feeling. They groped their way to the pharmaceutical factory's warehouse, and after carefully opening it, they saw it was filled with medicines and equipment.

The abundance of supplies here was even greater than they had anticipated.

It seems the professor was right; the advanced medical equipment he needed is likely available here.

Before they could even celebrate their discovery, a large group of zombies suddenly sprang out from a corner and surrounded them, even seemingly blocking the doorway in a planned manner.

Mo Xiu immediately recognized that many of the zombies here were high-level. Mo Qi casually scanned the area with his divine sense and also recognized that there were at least four level five and two level six zombies, each possessing special abilities.

And after surrounding them, the zombies kept throwing supernatural abilities at them, coordinating quite well. If Mo Xiu didn't know better, she would have suspected that a group of people were working together.

Mo Qi's face remained expressionless. He carefully protected Mo Xiu with his divine sense while calmly observing his surroundings.

Having been in this post-apocalyptic world for so long, this was the first time he had encountered such a concentrated number of high-level zombies.

Mo Xiu had told him before that the higher the level of a zombie, the stronger its abilities, and the more "intelligent" it would be, as if it had developed sentience.

However, this intelligence has its limitations; the fact that these zombies can cooperate suggests that it's not as simple as it seems.

Mo Qi could clearly sense that something invisible was controlling these zombies, which was why they were able to cooperate so well.

Mo Qi couldn't discern what these invisible things were, but they all seemed to emanate from the same direction. Moreover, this unknown force seemed to affect those with superpowers, making them hesitant when releasing their abilities.

Could this be the real psychic ability that Mo Xiu once told me about?

Could it be that the highest-level level seven zombie is a zombie with psychic abilities?

Following the source of that power, Mo Xiu was almost able to pinpoint the opponent's location.

But clearly, it wasn't just Mo Qi who realized this; Mo Xiu did too.

So, before the man could do anything, Mo Xiu, who was standing not far from him, suddenly turned around, instantly locked onto a zombie that had been hiding in a corner and looked inconspicuous, and released two lightning dragons to attack it.
