Ouyang Ningxue knew that Li Xuanzu would come, but she did not refuse.
Her opinion of Li Xuanzu was one of the few among everyone that showed a degree of appreciation.
She didn't know why Li Xuanzu did this, but she could sense how far-sighted he was, and that there was no need for him to say those words to Qian Li.
It was just because I couldn't bear to see Qian Li so dejected.
Upon arriving near a residential area, Li Xuanzu located Ouyang Ningxue's residence based on the house number.
At this moment, she was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and shorts, which perfectly accentuated her figure. Whether it was because of the heat or because she liked to exercise, there were some damp sweat stains on her body.
This didn't detract from the overall impression; on the contrary, it made the place appear more vibrant.
"You're here, find a seat yourself," Ouyang Ningxue said casually, taking a seat on the sofa first.
Qian Li chatted with Ouyang Ningxue for a while, while Li Xuanzu sat a bit further away, too lazy to listen, and started browsing the forum.
After about ten minutes, Qian Li finished speaking.
"Li Xuanzu? What could you possibly want with me?" Ouyang Ningxue asked, puzzled. She admired him, but she didn't have much interaction with Li Xuanzu.
"Do you want to become a third-tier psionicist?" Li Xuanzu's question almost made Ouyang Ningxue lose her footing.
"What do you mean?" Ouyang Ningxue straightened her posture, somewhat puzzled.
"Literally, Qian Li has a third-tier spirit core, and I want to give it to you so that you can become a third-tier spiritual energy user." Li Xuanzu remained calm and composed.
"Why me? Leng An is more suitable as the leader of our team, isn't he?" This was exactly the question that Li Xuanzu had been thinking about.
“Him? He’s too impetuous. Giving him that kind of strength is not suitable for the current environment. But you…” Li Xuanzu paused for a moment after saying this.
“You are calmer, more thoughtful, and have a higher combat awareness. Apart from his special status, he is not worthy of the third-tier strength, at least for now.”
“There are plenty of people more suitable than me, so why me?” Ouyang Ningxue remained very cautious.
"That's why I said Leng An's identity is special, and I need you to act as his 'bodyguard.' But all you need to do is ensure your own safety and help him avoid dying as much as possible. Can you do that?"
“Okay, I promise you, and…” Ouyang Ningxue nodded, originally wanting to thank her, but for a moment she didn’t know who to say it to.
"Thanks to Qian Li. This is the last third-tier spirit core we have left. I was only responsible for coming up with ideas; the ownership of the spirit core belongs to her." Li Xuanzu shrugged, indicating that it had little to do with him.
"Thank you, Qian Li." Ouyang Ningxue bowed deeply to Qian Li. In the face of a third-tier spirit core, no amount of thanks would be enough.
Qian Li felt a little embarrassed and quickly waved her hand, telling Ouyang Ningxue not to worry about it.
“Absorb it now. It would be bad if something went wrong if I wasn’t there,” Li Xuanzu said to Ouyang Ningxue.
Ouyang Ningxue looked at Qian Li, and after receiving a look of approval from her, she grabbed the spirit core and began to absorb it.
The process went very smoothly, with no problems except for skin congestion caused by absorbing energy.
Ouyang Ningxue made a grasping motion toward the cup not far away, and quickly drew it into her hand.
This spirit core is from Sichuan Province, and it belonged to the Zhengdan zombie. Its ability is to manipulate objects and change their hardness.
This was like adding wings to Ouyang Ningxue's tiger.
Having a solid foundation in martial arts, traditional martial arts, especially melee combat, became less effective after the apocalypse began to take over the domain of psionicists.
Even the most powerful weapons are difficult for humans to effectively damage level 2 and above zombies.
With this spiritual power, Ouyang Ningxue's combat flexibility was greatly enhanced, and anything could become a weapon.
This was perfect for her, who had been practicing with spears and staffs since childhood.
"I hope I can bet right this time." After leaving those words, Li Xuanzu left with Qian Li.
Lunch will be served soon.
