Kong Sang hummed in agreement, and seemed to have something on her mind since that day, but Lin Changli was unsure.

Qi Yun Shen probably knew it was useless, so he didn't talk to Yu Wei anymore. He didn't stay in the Sangqi Empire for long before planning to return with the gene drug, New Sprout.

As time went by, choices naturally arose, and the fact that the two eventually reached this point left everyone sighing.

Weisheng returned to R country a few days ago, and will probably come here for a stroll with Jinghe William next time.

Lin Changli said nonchalantly, "Sangsang, I'll go back and take care of things. I'll have the Lin family gradually move to Sangqi. Wait for me to come back."

They really showed no respect to Qi Yunshen, the new president. The Lin family is an absolute behemoth in China. If they were to withdraw completely, China's economy would be thrown into chaos for a while.

But he knew Lin Changli; if he were in Sangqi, the other party couldn't be separated from him for long.

An Sang's gaze fell on her abdomen, a look of helplessness in her eyes. If Lin Changli knew, he might as well not even bother leaving...

Her failed attempt to transform into a male body had a reason, not because of insufficient control over her power field, but because... the two little ones inside her were consuming her energy...

It's absolutely bizarre. Lin Changli, a human, actually got pregnant by a higher-dimensional being. It's like a dragon getting pregnant with a goldfish's child—unbelievable.

"Sang Sang?"

Looking up, he saw that everyone was looking at him. An Sang snapped out of his thoughts and said, "Well, let's go..."

The word "I" was uttered in a female voice, and the body shifted again before settling into a male state.

Yu Wei asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Despite Lin Changli's suspicious gaze, An Sang forced a smile and said, "It's alright, you should go now. Yu Wei is with me, she'll definitely tell you if anything happens. I'll be fine."

As if deliberately going against her, or perhaps wanting to keep Lin Changli, An Sang gagged in front of everyone...

The entire room fell silent. An Sang awkwardly covered her mouth and looked up to meet the gazes of many...

Si Yu exclaimed in surprise, "Oh my god, did you eat something bad?"

"Hmm, maybe. Let's go." She wasn't ready to accept this, and didn't want to tell anyone.

An Sang calmly turned to leave, clearly not intending to see him off.

Lin Changli grasped his wrist, her eyes filled with a strange light, and asked, "Did you really eat something bad?"

He was panicking inside, but his face remained impassive. He glanced at her sideways and said, "What do you think I am? Please, I'm a higher-dimensional being. We're different species, okay?"

Lin Changli looked at him carefully for a while, until the skin on the back of his neck was a little hairy, before the guy nodded: "I was overthinking it. I'm leaving now, I'll be back soon."

An Sang nodded, waved to everyone, and then returned to Sang Palace with Yu Wei.

As soon as Yu Wei entered the Sang Palace, she couldn't hold back any longer and immediately wanted to ask something, but An Sang secretly pinched her.

Yu Wei looked at the inexplicable mist outside, somewhat speechless, and asked with concern, "An Sang, what did you eat yesterday?"

"As a higher-dimensional being, what could possibly upset my stomach? I'm just feeling unwell lately from dispersing my energy."

Yu Wei nodded: "Then don't push yourself too hard. An Xiuqi wouldn't want you to hurt yourself like this. There's no rush to divide the crystals."

An Sang agreed, and the two talked for a while longer before the moisture outside disappeared without a trace.

Upon seeing this, Yu Wei immediately looked at An Sang, who touched his stomach with a hint of helplessness.

Yu Wei's pupils contracted. Holy crap, this is insane!

On the plane, Lin Changli remained silent, seemingly preoccupied. Si Yu teased, "You're being too clingy. How can my Sang stand it?"

"I've been so busy playing house with that little girl Luo Yue these past few days that I haven't had time to chat with Sang. I'm really fed up."

Lan Ye scoffed, "You're so bored you don't even have time to chat with An Sang. She didn't like you when she was a woman, and it's even less likely she'd like to like you when she's a man. She even introduced you to little girls. You should be secretly happy. Look at our President, he's still withdrawn."

Si Yu looked at Qi Yun Shen, who was motionless in the corner as if he had turned into a stone statue, and kicked Lin Chang Li helplessly.

"You go sit down too. The two of you can sit in a row, like the 'Waiting-for-Wife Stone Sculpture.' Don't spoil our good mood."

Lin Changli suddenly spoke up: "Do you think... Sangsang might be pregnant?"

Upon hearing this, Si Yu and Lan Ye were dumbfounded, and the three of them stared at each other in disbelief...

After a long pause, Lan Ye shook his head: "It's unlikely. Just like An Sang said, you are essentially two different species."

"The odds of winning are too low. Besides, if it were true, why would An Sang hide it from you? Could it be that the child isn't yours?"

Lin Changli's face immediately darkened, and he said coldly, "There's a reason why you can't find a wife."

Si Yu saw Lan Ye's face darken and laughed so hard he almost choked.

The two looked at each other simultaneously and said in unison, "Single dog, what are you laughing at?"

They're at least somewhat in the making, so how can Si Yu, this complete bachelor, have the nerve to laugh so happily?

The laughter stopped, and the three of them turned pale. They found seats and, like Qi Yun Shen, fell into a gloomy mood.

Birds would stay far away from airplanes belching black smoke, afraid of being tainted by bad luck.

Lin Changli thought he would be able to return to Sangsang's side soon, but the reality was quite the opposite.

Not long after returning to Country C, a zombie outbreak occurred.

The zombies, which were previously under control, have suddenly evolved and gained intelligence for some unknown reason.

They create chaos to escape, launch targeted attacks on every location, and retreat before the enemy arrives.

Not only Country C, but all countries have been attacked multiple times, and the number of people infected with the virus is increasing.

Schools closed, companies shut down, and social order descended into chaos.

The virus, which was not taken seriously by various countries, demonstrated its terror in a horrific way.

The Lin family was fully operational, not only helping Country C, but also helping people from other countries who had fled.

Survival items are no longer obtained with money, but with crystal cores from the zombies' brains.

The growth of crystal cores in zombies is something that happens in the middle stages of the apocalypse. Even people like Si Yu who returned from the apocalypse never imagined that the apocalypse would skip the initial stage...

Although they were prepared, they were still caught off guard and could only try to make things right for all parties.

Country C was the first to adapt. Although the people were panicked, there was no major rioting under Qi Yunshen's suppression.

If you obediently follow the instructions, you'll at least have a chance to survive. Besides, in Country C, everyone can receive the New Sprout Gene Drug.

After the first dose, those who successfully mutate must join the cleanup team in Country C, earning a chance to take the gene drug again through their own efforts.

Those without mutations will not be ignored by the government; they will be uniformly relocated to safe zones and given what it can to help.

Compared to country C, other countries descended into chaos, with the collapse of order leading to a series of tragedies.

Country R is completely controlled by the William family, the black market of Weisheng Translation, and the Leisen family, so it can be considered relatively stable.

In some countries, government officials are collapsing, and those in power are fleeing to other countries, not to mention the civilians who are left without anyone to care for them.

Because of the existence of Ansang, the Sangqi Empire became a salvation in the eyes of many common people, and too many people flocked there.
