Upon seeing the burly man's appearance, Zuo Qingya recalled his background: Chenzhou? Someone from the construction company? Did he come here because he knew about the post-apocalyptic fortress? That's utterly shameless.
When Chen Zhou saw the mother and daughter, he understood why they had come. This was someone else's house, which they had paid for and renovated themselves. What he was doing was tantamount to taking over. But now that it was the apocalypse, did he still need to care about such things?
He thought the mother and son were dead, but they were still alive. He had been living here for three months and really didn't want to give up such a good place.
There are no security cameras here now. If I kill these two, this territory will be mine! Just thinking about it makes me happy. I hardened my heart and pointed the dark weapon at Zuo Qingya and her group.
Zuo Haijia chuckled: "Overestimating yourself." With a wave of her hand, Chen Zhou floated out of the house.
Chen Zhou was horrified: "Are you a superhuman?" He immediately regretted his actions and begged for mercy.
"Help! Please spare me! I won't occupy your house anymore, please let me go, we'll leave now."
Zuo Haijia chuckled, "Too late." With a flick of her fingers, Chen Zhou turned into a pool of blood mist, encased in a transparent shield without a single drop falling. Zuo Haijia waved her hand, pushing the shield away into the distance, letting it drift wherever the wind took it.
This was the first time Zuo Qingya had witnessed her mother commit murder. She couldn't quite describe her feelings, but she thought, "Wow, my mom is so cool! Even murder is so cool."
The people observing from inside the house were all trembling, not daring to make a sound.
Zuo Haijia snorted coldly and said, "Come out, all of you!"
Upon hearing Zuo Haijia's shout, everyone else trembled with fear, lacking the courage to even stand up.
"I'll count to three. If you don't come out by then, you'll all die."
As soon as Zuo Haijia counted to one, several people came out of the house one after another. Zuo Qingya felt that they all looked familiar; they were all people from the construction company.
As soon as they came out, they all knelt on the ground and began to beg for mercy.
"Please, let us go. We haven't done anything immoral. We just want to find a safe place to live."
"Yes, yes, please be magnanimous and let us go!"
Zuo Haijia chuckled, "Is that so?" Her sharp gaze swept over the crowd.
Are you sure you haven't done anything heinous?
Upon hearing this, everyone began to tremble and dared not utter another word.
Some people became enraged, pulled out dark weapons from their waists, and pointed them at Zuo Qingya and her group.
The others also went all out, pulling out their dark weapons and aiming them at Zuo Qingya and her group.
Surrounded, Zuo Haijia remained relaxed, sighing, "You guys are really naughty!" and waved her hand again.
The crowd began to float up uncontrollably, even the hands holding their weapons bent involuntarily.
Screams echoed...
Zuo Haijia frowned in disgust: "So noisy." With another squeeze of her hand, everyone else turned into a blood mist and drifted away.
Zuo Qingya watched all this silently, her heart filled with admiration. As expected of my mom, she's amazing. If I had that ability, I wouldn't be afraid of anywhere.
After dealing with these people, Zuo Qingya and Zuo Haijia went inside the house.
The room was a mess, filled with all sorts of smells, and it smelled awful.
Zuo Haijia led Zuo Qingya down to the basement, only to find that several women and children were locked up there.
You can tell what happened to them just by looking at them.
Zuo Qingya felt uneasy upon seeing this.
Zuo Haijia also sighed, tossed down a few pieces of clothing, and said, "Change your clothes before you come out."
Everyone's faces were blank. They silently picked up their clothes, put them on, and then walked out of the basement.
The sunlight outside was a bit dazzling, and everyone squinted. After their eyes adjusted to the sunlight, they realized the difference outside. Even though they had doubts in their hearts, they didn't dare to ask.
Zuo Haijia sat on the sofa and looked at everyone, saying, "My name is Zuo Haijia, and next to me is my daughter, Zuo Qingya. This is my house. It was occupied by those construction company people before, but now they are dead, and you are free."
Although I had my suspicions, I never imagined that those scumbags were already dead.
A woman started laughing maniacally, saying, "Good riddance! Good riddance!" Then she began to sob uncontrollably.
Zuo Haijia sighed and continued, "We came back to retrieve some things. Now we're heading back to Hope City. You can come along if you want!"
Chang Ling couldn't believe it. "Can we really leave here?"
Zuo Haijia nodded in affirmation: "Of course."
Upon hearing Zuo Haijia's affirmative answer, everyone burst into tears.
Zuo Haijia took what she needed and pointed to the supplies beside her, instructing, "You'd better bring some food too, because you'll need to submit supplies to enter the city."
"good."
With Zuo Haijia and the others escorting them along the way, they returned to the City of Hope safely.
Once they arrived in the city, Zuo Haijia parted ways with the others, leaving them to fend for themselves from then on; Zuo Haijia and the others couldn't possibly manage that.
Back at the villa, Zuo Qingya finally breathed a sigh of relief and released Hu Zi. The two of them had only come to watch the fun and hadn't helped at all; Zuo Haijia had handled everything by herself.
Tiger happily went off to play with his toys.
Zuo Qingya lay on the sofa, recalling her mother's imposing and domineering presence—just a pinch, and they were all dead. When would she ever have that kind of ability?
"Sigh... I'd better go back to my room and cultivate!"
"Ugh... When will the system upgrade be finished? It's been a whole day and there's still no sign of it."
Zuo Qingya lay down and began to absorb spiritual energy. She was already in the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. She felt that she was cultivating quite fast, but compared with her mother, she was just a piece of trash.
For several days in a row, Zuo Qingya spent her time cultivating, and the food she ate was the fasting pills given to her by Zuo Haijia.
Zuo Qingya never expected that Zuo Haijia would have such a thing. This fasting pill is much better than the nutrient solution. One packet of nutrient solution can keep you hungry for a day, while one fasting pill can keep you hungry for a month.
The system is still under upgrade, and I don't know if the system store has Bigu Pills. I'd like to know the price.
"Mom, do you know how to make pills?"
Zuo Haijia nodded: "Yes... what's wrong? You want to learn?"
Zuo Qingya quickly waved her hand: "No, I don't want to learn, I just want to ask."
Zuo Haijia looked at Zuo Qingya with disdain: "You're just lazy."
"Hehe... Mom understands me best."
Zuo Haijia took out several bottles of pills and handed them to Zuo Qingya: "Take these, they're enough for your cultivation."
Zuo Qingya quickly took the pill: "Hehe... Thank you, Mom."
Zuo Haijia waved her hand: "Hurry up and leave, I get annoyed just looking at you."
"Okay." He said, and thoughtfully closed the door.
