Inside the Ye family villa.

It's a familiar scene again.

On one side was Yang Chenze lying unconscious on the ground, and on the other side were eight people—a zombie, a system, and two others—surrounding a soul and chattering away. Suddenly, they broke into a fierce argument, and everyone looked rather grim.

Ye Yubai's face was extremely sour; he was the first to lose his temper, "No, I absolutely disagree!"

"You've all seen what happens to people who eat zombie crystal cores!"

"Xu Xin from the Liaoyuan Base has a prior record!"

After saying that, he turned his back, not wanting to talk to these people who couldn't understand him.

Ye Zhi put her hands on her hips, her lower abdomen sucking in and then bulging out. This was her uncle, so she endured it.

He then pulled Ye Yubai aside to whisper to her.

No, she couldn't take it anymore.

Ye Zhi whispered quite loudly, her childish voice clearly filled with anger, "You've gone too far! I'm trying to reason with you nicely now, but it won't be a discussion later!"

Old Master Song and the others felt a sudden tightness in their scalps and wanted to escape.

Ye Zhiyi's soul quietly took a step back; his little disciple was angry and afraid.

Standing behind Ye Zhi and Ye Yubai, Ye Jingyu reached out and tugged at Song Yuanqing's clothes. The two then whispered to each other, "Wife, the things you always say to me have been picked up by our little sweet bean."

Ye Yubai's anger vanished instantly. He wilted and mumbled softly, "I agree, I agree, okay? Why are you being so fierce? I'm just afraid you'll turn into zombies."

Ye Zhi patted her small chest loudly, looking confident, "Don't worry, it won't happen."

Looking at Ye Zhi's pitiful expression, Ye Yubai continued, "Then I'll be the guinea pig first."

Perfect timing, he's the man destined to become the Zombie King, so we can use him to test the feasibility of the plan first.

Hearing Ye Yubai volunteer so readily, Ye Zhi, who was unaware of the truth, suddenly felt that she had been too fierce just now. She softened her tone and said, "Uncle Bai, I will take care of you at all times and will never let you get into any danger."

At this moment, Yang Chenze, who had been unconscious on the ground for a long time, slowly woke up, and a small mountain peak appeared between his brows.

My hips hurt, my shoulders hurt, my legs hurt, and especially my head. My head hurts terribly, as if something was forcibly shoved in and then pulled out.

Ye Zhiyi's soul immediately floated forward, his once handsome face now transformed into one with blood flowing from all seven orifices and a deathly pale complexion. "My son—, you're finally awake! I was so worried about you."

Yang Chenze's previously dazed eyes instantly cleared. "Dad, you've turned into a zombie, but you can still talk?"

He remembered that after he put his parents in a safe place and found them enough supplies, he was about to go out to find Ye Jingyu. But as soon as he boarded the private plane, he saw his father, who had insisted on coming to see him off, being bitten by a zombie.

Could it be that he was just imagining things all along?

Ye Zhiyi clicked his tongue and returned to his original form. "You silly son is so boring."

At this moment, Ye Zhi came over and greeted Yang Chenze, who was still lying on the ground, with a smile, "Hello, Brother Chenze."

Yang Chenze felt terrible; his head was throbbing even more.

After Ye Zhi arrived, Ye Zhiyi's soul had a point of reference. Yang Chenze clearly saw the abnormality in Ye Zhiyi's body. He could vaguely see the objects behind his father's body.

!

His dad turned into a ghost!

Yang Chenze pushed himself up with both hands on the ground and jumped to his feet, ignoring the pain in his hip. He looked at Ye Zhiyi's spirit and said, "Why are you following me now that you've become a ghost? Watch over Mom."

Hearing Yang Chenze's words, Ye Zhiyi became even angrier. He glared at Yang Chenze and said, "I didn't follow you. I came to find my little apprentice."

After saying that, he turned to Ye Zhi beside him and said, "Let him eat the zombie crystal core. This unfilial son isn't afraid of ghosts."

Yang Chenze: "...What nonsense is the old man talking about?"

His gaze swept across the gradually gathering crowd and quickly locked onto Ye Jingyu.

Before Ye could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Zhiyi.

"What Ye? How dare you call your father by his full name?"

"Come here!"

Ye Zhiyi waved his hand fiercely, revealing his fatherly authority.

Yang Chenze's reluctant gaze lingered on Ye Jingyu for a moment before he said, "...Oh."

The father and son went to the side and whispered to each other.

Ye Yubai glanced at the man and the soul, snorted coldly at Yang Chenze's back, and then said to Ye Zhi, who had not received a response from Yang Chenze, "Hello, sweet bean niece."

Ye Zhi's face suddenly broke into a big smile, "Hello, Uncle Bai."

"Then I'll start eating the crystal cores."

"good."

…

At the dining table.

Ye Yubai burped, glanced at the pile of zombie crystal cores in front of him that seemed to have no decrease, and despair appeared on his face.

This stuff has no flavor, and it gets boring after a while. He wants to be bitten by a zombie.

Looking at the little squid opposite him, eating zombie crystals like candy, he felt even more desperate.

He's eaten his fill of crystal cores, and his body hasn't shown any signs of turning into a zombie. I wonder if he'll have to eat these tasteless crystal cores every meal from now on.

"Uncle Bai, keep going! Uncle Bai, you're the best!" Ye Zhi's cheering voice gave Ye Yu Bai strength.

He grabbed a handful of zombie crystal cores and shoved them into his mouth. The crunchy cores tasted like nothing to him.

Ye Yubai silently chanted in his heart: Quantitative change leads to qualitative change, change, change, change!

Just then, Ye Zhi heard the little squid's voice, "I smell a bit of my kind."

Ye Zhi glanced at the little squid with its mouth closed as it chewed on the crystal core, then looked at Ye Yu Bai. She saw that the veins on the back of his hand had turned black, and his originally black eyes had gradually turned the grayish-white of a zombie.

Ye Yubai screamed, "Ah, my head hurts so much!"

He spat out the zombie crystal core he hadn't finished chewing, covered his head with his hands, and curled up on the stool.

Ye Zhi was startled and took out the painkillers she had prepared beforehand, stuffing them into Ye Yubai's mouth.

She asked Ye Zhiyi how it felt to become a zombie, and Ye Zhiyi said it was very painful. Therefore, Ye Zhi found a lot of painkillers in her space, such as ibuprofen and morphine.

However, it was no use. As soon as the medicine was put into Ye Yubai's mouth, he spat it out. Even when Lu Ben and Ye Jingyu, two big men, tried to put the medicine into Ye Yubai's mouth, they couldn't manage it.

After Ye Yubai vomited up the medicine Ye Zhi had fed him, his jaw clenched, his whole body trembled violently, and he even fell off the chair mountain.

Ye Zhi panicked immediately. When she saw Ye Yubai lying on the ground trembling and making strange noises in his throat, she began to question the words of Heaven.

Her consciousness entered the space and took out the pain-relieving pills she had made in the cultivation world.

When the painkiller touched Ye Yubai's mouth, it dissolved into a liquid and successfully entered his body through his teeth.

"Uncle Bai, eat it quickly, it's good medicine."
