The Rookie Returns: Soaring in the Apocalypse

On the brink of the apocalypse, Zuo Ling is brought back to her distant relatives' Ding family and safely survives countless disasters through the chaos.

However, on the verge of death, s...

Chapter 358 Empty

The screen played the previous clip over and over again. After thinking it over, Zuo Ling decided to tell Pei Nansheng.

The old woman's face had just appeared on the screen, those familiar features...

Pei Nansheng's heart suddenly ached, and he subconsciously reached out to touch her. It was really the mother he had been longing for day and night!

Before he was seven years old, he and his mother depended on each other for survival. One day, his mother suddenly disappeared, and Ding Youdao told him that his mother had died.

A perfectly healthy person, who was fine this morning, how could they just suddenly die?

He didn't believe it and kept crying for his mother. Ding Youdao got annoyed and slapped him hard. He still remembers that slap and the pain is still there!

With his doubts weighing on his mind, he stopped making a fuss. As time went by, he even began to believe that his mother had really passed away... He never expected that they would meet in this way today.

His mother is suffering inhuman torture and abuse, enduring unimaginable pain.

The Ding family! How dare the Ding family!!

Recalling the shameful things he had done for the Ding family, Pei Nansheng felt immense regret and anger. He had risked his life countless times for such a despicable and shameless family, yet his own mother had ended up like this!

Pei Nansheng looked like he was both crying and laughing, his nails digging deep into his palms. The physical pain did nothing to alleviate his anger at being deceived.

Well done, Ding family!

Just then, a deep, aged voice suddenly came from the video:

“Pei Nansheng, if you want to see your mother, come find me.”

A sharp, piercing laugh rang out, "Do you know how much suffering your mother endured to keep you alive? Hahaha, she didn't even dare to ask for death, living like an animal every day. Hahahaha... This is the first time I've ever seen such a resilient woman. You mustn't let her down."

As soon as he finished speaking, the image on the screen went cold.

Overwhelmed with grief and indignation, Pei Nansheng swung his fist and smashed it against the hard rock beside him. The sharp stone pierced his flesh, and blood gushed from his palm.

Mom, wait for me!

He vowed to rescue his mother no matter what and to make those who had abused her pay the price.

Liu Bao'er thought that Pei Nansheng would come after her for revenge after watching the video, but to her surprise, after waiting for two days, the brother and sister did not make any move.

The long wait is agonizing. On the one hand, one needs to be highly vigilant at all times to deal with possible sudden attacks. On the other hand, one cannot help but feel extremely eager for the important moment to arrive.

Every minute and every second seemed to move incredibly slowly. As another day quietly slipped by, Liu Bao'er wondered to herself, "Could it be that Pei Nansheng has already died?"

Just then, a loud bang shook the doors and windows, and caused tables, chairs, and benches to overturn, covering Liu Bao'er's head in dust.

Liu Bao'er was startled, then overjoyed. Haha~, they've finally arrived!

To his utter surprise, Zuo Ling simply fired an RPG rocket at the base's main gate and then quickly fled the scene.

Looking at the devastation before her, and the gate that had just been repaired but was blown to pieces again, a truly pitiful sight, Liu Bao'er was furious.

For the past two days, Zuo Ling has been using her healing abilities to heal Pei Nansheng's injuries.

Ever since watching that video, her brother has been depressed and hasn't spoken for two days. Zuo Ling felt sorry for him and thought that she couldn't let those scumbags from the Ding family have too much free time, so she came to find them something to do.

Hahaha... Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone, come on, let's all have a blast!

The Ding family's armed men cursed and watched as Zuo Ling, transformed into a swift, flew past them.

At that moment, the armed men were in despair, wondering how they could possibly contend with such a powerful ability user who possessed both spatial and animal abilities.

The armed personnel didn't know what kind of bird Zuo Ling was in disguise; they only knew that she came like the wind and went like lightning, and every attack she made carried a deadly threat.

She herself, however, was able to move freely amidst a hail of bullets.

Before the armed personnel could react, she had easily broken through the defenses and moved as if she were in an empty field.

They tried to resist, but found that all their attacks were like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, unable to cause her any harm. Her presence made them feel powerless and fearful, as if she were invincible.

Just what kind of being has the Grand Elder offended?

How could they survive if they were enemies with such people? Fear spread like a plague.

"Go, drag that woman out here! I want to see if they can really tolerate this."

Liu Bao'er broke down emotionally, waving his short arms wildly. He was short in stature, but his voice was unusually old and harsh. The stark contrast made him look particularly ridiculous.

An armed man burst in, stammering, "Elder... Elder, they've arrived."

Liu Bao'er was momentarily stunned. Impatiently, she swung her hand forcefully, sending a powerful gust of air flying.

With a loud bang, the man crashed into the mountainside, breaking two of his ribs and spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Another armed man rushed over, and upon seeing the scene inside, he turned pale with fright, his legs went weak, and he knelt down with a thud, hurriedly saying:

"Elder, something terrible has happened! Pei Nansheng and his sister are at the main gate!"

As soon as Zuo Ling entered the space, Pei Nansheng, who had been unconscious, immediately woke up.

Before leaving, she gave Pei Nansheng a little sedative, but didn't dare use too much.

Pei Nansheng was awakened by the smell of gunpowder on Zuo Ling. Seeing her excited look, like a child doing something naughty, he knew what she had been up to.

"Let's go, let's do it today."
