'Waaah—'
As soon as Jiang Nian'an finished speaking, wolf howls echoed from the dark night in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, pairs of eyes glowing green appeared in everyone's sight.
"Wolves! It's wolves!" a survivor exclaimed.
"And others—"
The survivors' hearts trembled violently as they watched the crimson light emerge from around the green glow.
They fear mutated animals, especially ferocious beasts, more than zombies.
Even those with superpowers will most likely perish at their hands.
Human reaction speed and combat capabilities are far inferior to theirs, and cannot be caught up with overnight.
'cracking--'
Countless dark shadows flew into the sky, their wings flapping and stirring up a cloud of sand and stones.
"Second Young Master, what should we do?" In the midst of the chaos, someone called out to Shen Nanxing.
"what to do..."
Shen Nanxing drew his sword with a clang, lightning crackling around it, carrying a terrifying power. "Let's fight!"
Regardless of the situation underground, the city of Kyoto, which holds countless lives behind them, does not allow them to retreat.
"Chen Yun, go to the rest area and call all the people stationed there."
Shen Nanchuan seemed to regain his senses the moment he saw the mutated creature, and was now very calm.
"Yes, young master!"
A gaunt speed-type ability user responded and vanished from everyone's sight in the blink of an eye.
"Little brother, I'll guard the south, and you guard the north, okay?"
Shen Nanchuan looked at Shen Nanxing.
The city wall runs north-south, with one wall guarding the south and the other the north, which is just enough to protect the entire defense line.
There were simply more enemies in the south and fewer in the north.
"Sure, but let's switch places."
Shen Nanxing slung the knife over his shoulder, turned his head to look at Shen Nanchuan, and said, "I'll guard the south, you guard the north."
"An'an, you take Xiaolongzhan and the others and follow your big brother."
Before Shen Nanchuan could object, Shen Nanxing placed his large hand on Jiang Nian'an's waist, pulled her into his arms, and whispered something.
Jiang Nian'an rolled her eyes at him, held out her right hand, and asked, "What's this?"
"Your hand."
Shen Nanxing grabbed her hand, kissed it lightly, and looked at her with tender eyes.
"wrong!"
Jiang Nian'an pulled her hand back and glared at him, "That was a slap, don't force me to hit you!"
Hmph, let her take Xiaolongzhan and the others to relax in the north, while he goes on an adventure in the south...
He shouldn't even think about such a thing!
They will surely live and die together, advance and retreat together.
No one can live alone, and no one can die alone.
Jiang Nian'an tightened her grip on Shen Nanxing's clothes, a resolute ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.
"An'an, I'm doing this for your safety. Be good and stay with your older brother in the north. I'll come back for you..."
Shen Nanxing's gentle voice rang out as he softly stroked her face and soothed her gently.
"I don't!"
Jiang Nian'an gently rubbed against his chest, deliberately softening her voice.
"The north may seem safe, but no one will protect me like you do. The south may seem dangerous, but you are here."
Brother Chen, I only feel at ease when you're around.
Jiang Nian'an gently shook Shen Nanxing's hand.
"Brother-in-law, I also want to go south. This place is full of zombies, and they're all stupid. I can't help them."
But it's different in the south.
Xiao Longzhan climbed onto Shen Nanxing's back and whispered something in his ear.
At the same time, he gave Little Silver and the others a meaningful look.
Shen Nanxing followed his gaze and looked at Xiao Yin and the others.
Little Silver and Little Blood Fox were still licking the poison off the crab claws, and their auras were even stronger than before.
The king stared wide-eyed, awaiting their final decision.
Thinking of Xiao Longzhan's abilities, Shen Nanxing's gaze softened.
"Even if you don't let me go, I'll still sneak off."
Jiang Nian'an added fuel to the fire, saying, "I can't guarantee what will happen then."
"Brother-in-law, don't let my sister's easygoing nature fool you; when she gets stubborn, she can be quite headstrong."
She's really capable of sneaking off south.
Xiao Longzhan clung to Shen Nanxing's shoulder, looking at the reinforcements that had arrived, and said somewhat anxiously.
He doesn't want to play with these stupid zombies here!
He's going south; maybe he can find a fierce mount there.
Xiao Longzhan looked up at the mutated birds circling in mid-air, his eyes darkening.
He had deduced from what his sister and brother-in-law had said earlier that this land was very likely to turn into the sea.
Therefore, the mount should ideally be able to fly, and it also needs to be large.
Having a large bird as a mount might save your life in a crisis.
After all, he couldn't return to his original form in this world, and he couldn't fly with his sister.
Little Longzhan's eyes darted around as he tilted his head back and secretly began to choose.
Big and beautiful...
This is his standard.
Shen Nanxing was unaware of Xiao Longzhan's thoughts, but he sighed slightly upon hearing his words.
He understood Jiang Nian'an's personality all too well.
What else could I do but agree?
If this naughty little darling in my arms really does run off on his own and something happens, it would be no different than tearing his heart out.
"Alright, then you'll come with me to the south, but you can't leave my sight."
Even though An'an and Xiao Zhanzhan are both quite capable, he was still worried.
"Um!"
Jiang Nian'an and Xiao Longzhan exchanged a glance, a sly glint in their eyes.
"You~"
Shen Nanxing's gaze had already returned to Jiang Nian'an, and he caught the sly look in her eyes.
Helpless, he could only place a kiss on her forehead with a look of doting affection.
He knew she wanted to walk alongside him, but he couldn't bear to part with her.
He wanted to stand in front of her, to protect her, to give her enough confidence and security, so that she could be carefree.
"Brother, the Shen family members come with me, and the other survivors stay with you in the north, okay?"
Having made his decision, Shen Nanxing decided not to waste any more time and turned to look at Shen Nanchuan.
He originally planned to take half of the Shen family members with him, along with the other half of the survivors, leaving the other half of the Shen family members to protect An'an and the others.
But that's not necessary now.
“Okay!” Shen Nanchuan nodded without hesitation.
Compared to others, one's own people are naturally more reassuring.
Since the younger brother is going to the more dangerous south, the Shen family must follow him.
