Scarface Liu trembled; he knew all too well how ruthless Su Changchun was.
"Master, the woman who died with the young master was named Zhang Qian."
"Zhang Qian has a boyfriend of three years named Lu Yuan. Recently, the young master has been having some ambiguous interactions with Zhang Qian."
"The two may have had a relationship, so this Lu Yuan..."
Su Changchun interrupted Scarface Liu directly, this time by overturning the table.
“My son is lucky to have fallen for this woman. How dare he kill my son? I’ll make him suffer a terrible death.”
"Investigate him! I give you three days to bring this person back to me alive."
Scarface Liu quickly agreed and turned to leave.
"return!"
Su Changchun's loud shout startled Scarface Liu.
"Find out if Lu Yuan has any relatives or friends. Anyone even remotely related to him, kill them all and make them pay for my son's funeral!"
"And that Zhang Qian, take off her clothes and hang them on the city gate tower of the base for public display."
"If she still has family, no matter how young or old, leave none behind!"
Scarface Liu quickly agreed and left the Su residence. He knew his family head all too well.
They are treacherous, cunning, cruel, and tyrannical, especially after the apocalypse, when they have become even more ruthless and treat human life as worthless!
"Lu Yuan, is it? Don't let me catch you, or I'll make you wish you were dead!"
Even after walking quite a distance, Scarface Liu could still hear Su Changchun's vicious voice.
Achoo!
Lu Yuan, who was in the secret realm, sneezed for no apparent reason.
"Ding-dong!"
Lu Yuan sneezed, and the monster that fell to the ground dropped an item, which looked like a machete!
"Brother Yuan, look, it's a big cleaver! This monster actually drops equipment?"
"That's strange. It's like a game where you get equipment drops when you fight monsters."
Lu Yuan ignored Zhao Qiang and quickly picked up the large cleaver. It was just a hair's breadth away from being eaten by Bai Ling.
"A fine knife!"
"Qiangzi, this dagger is yours."
While playing with his large machete, Lu Yuan handed the dagger in his hand to Zhao Qiang.
What's so good about this knife?
Zhao Qiang took the dagger, but his eyes were fixed on the large cleaver in Lu Yuan's hand, because he wanted it too.
"I don't know, but it's definitely a good knife. Anything from the secret realm is bound to be a masterpiece!"
After hearing Lu Yuan's explanation, Zhao Qiang was speechless.
Pet Name: Gluttonous Beast (Bai Ling)
Pet potential: SSS level
Current level: F
Current experience: 80/100
Lu Yuan checked Bai Ling's experience bar; she was only 20% away from leveling up.
I estimate I'll be able to level up and advance in a little while; it seems I'll soon be a master.
"I don't even know what time it is. Damn it, I don't even know if it will get dark here. Never mind, I'll just rest for a bit."
"Get something to eat while you're at it, I'm starving."
After Lu Yuan finished speaking, he found a clean place to sit down, opened the package, and found that there wasn't a single thing inside. Only then did he realize that he hadn't prepared any food at all.
Do you have any food left?
Upon hearing Lu Yuan's question, Zhao Qiang quickly opened his backpack, took out compressed biscuits, one for himself and one for Lu Yuan.
Just as he was about to zip up the zipper, the compressed biscuits in his hand disappeared, and at that moment, Bai Ling was chewing something.
"Hey, you've already eaten so much, why are you still trying to steal mine?"
Zhao Qiang's words only made things worse.
Bai Ling flashed into the backpack and before Zhao Qiang could react, the backpack was empty, and then the entire package was gone, not even a single packaging bag remained.
"Brother Yuan, what kind of pet is this? It's practically a bandit!"
Lu Yuan was also very curious. He wasn't curious about the fact that the Taotie could eat, but rather about how fast it ate.
"Um, it might be hungry. You can have this piece first, I..."
Before Lu Yuan could finish speaking, his hand was suddenly empty.
The last piece of compressed biscuit was gone.
The two looked at each other, then chose to remain silent.
The final conclusion is that this is way too much to eat.
"Alright, let's continue!"
"Bai Ling, don't eat later, I'll make you some barbecue."
Bai Ling seemed to understand and even called out twice.
"Meow!"
So, the monster-clearing quest continued.
An hour later, Lu Yuan set up a fire and began roasting the snake meat.
Bai Ling lay in his arms, her eyes fixed on the barbecue grill.
On the barbecue grill, there were six roasted snakes, each as thick as a baby's arm, already turning yellowish and looking quite appetizing.
"Wait, I'll get two, Zhao Qiang will get two, and you'll get two too, understand?"
"No looting, understand?"
This was the nth time Lu Yuan had given this instruction.
"Meow!"
Bai Ling's mind is completely focused on roasting snake meat, and she will agree to whatever Lu Yuan says.
"Brother Yuan, what kind of breed is this? It can eat so much!"
"Could it really be a mutated stray cat?"
Bai Ling was very unhappy when Zhao Qiang said the words "stray cat". If it weren't for the fact that they were waiting to eat barbecue, Zhao Qiang probably would have lost his last pair of glasses lenses.
"It's not a 'stray cat,' it's called Taotie, the number one of the Four Ferocious Beasts, on par with the Four Divine Beasts."
Zhao Qiang would never believe that.
Taotie? A ferocious beast that looks like a cat? And can even meow like a cat?
It's even ranked alongside the Four Divine Beasts?
"You must be joking, a ferocious beast, a Taotie?"
"In my opinion, it's just a rather greedy stray cat!"
This time, Bai Ling couldn't hold back any longer and stood up to teach Zhao Qiang a lesson, but luckily Lu Yuan caught her in time.
"Qiangzi, you need to watch your mouth. It didn't matter before the apocalypse, but now it's the apocalypse. Don't cause me any trouble."
"If I accidentally offend someone one day and they chop you up, I'll still avenge you."
After hearing Lu Yuan's words, Zhao Qiang chuckled twice.
He knew that his mouth was prone to offending people, but it was something he was born with and couldn't change.
"Brother Yuan, what's really going on with this apocalypse?"
"Why do perfectly healthy people turn into zombies? Why do perfectly healthy animals mutate?"
"Furthermore, sacred objects that do not belong to Earth have also appeared. How did they come to Earth? Does humanity still have a future?"
Lu Yuan had been pondering Zhao Qiang's question as well, and finally came to the conclusion that he didn't know.
Nobody knows for sure, but some speculate that a large crack appeared somewhere, and these monsters came out of the crack.
Some people say that Earth is a hunting ground for aliens; there are all sorts of claims, but none of them have been proven.
Lu Yuan sighed.
"I don't know if there's a future, but I do know that if we don't become stronger, neither of us will live for more than a few days."
"This is the end of the world. Order has collapsed, morality has declined, and the law of the jungle prevails, with only the fittest surviving."
"Instead of complaining, give it your all. Dying won't hurt."
This chapter has ended!
