Su Ruyan's expression changed drastically, not from fear but from anger.
She yelled loudly at Hua Mi.
"Don't you know who I am? I am the only spatial ability user in this entire apocalypse."
"If you kill me, it will be a loss for the entire apocalypse."
"My existence is extremely precious."
Hua Mi scoffed, gripping the hilt of the long sword in her hand tightly, pressing it against Su Ruyan's snow-white neck.
A bloodstain immediately appeared on his neck.
Hua Mi's face was filled with hostility.
"Didn't you say I was a burden? Now that the burden has a knife to your throat, what do you, the most precious person in the entire apocalypse, think?"
"How much fighting power can someone like you have?"
"Su Ruyan, you've never thought about this: how can I, with my husband and two children, move so leisurely through the zombie horde?"
"Is it possible that I am more precious than you?"
Su Ruyan remained silent, her expression already contorted. Overly self-conscious, Su Ruyan still couldn't believe that Hua Mi dared to hold a knife to her neck.
Just then, she saw Captain Zhao leading a group of people passing by the alley entrance.
So Su Ruyan shouted loudly at Captain Zhao,
"Hurry and save me! This crazy woman has a knife to my neck!"
"How dare she put a knife to my throat? Save me, kill her!"
Captain Zhao's expression changed drastically; their team's supplies were all on Su Ruyan.
So Captain Zhao immediately led his men over, and angrily shouted at Hua Mi.
"Aren't you going a bit too far? We haven't offended you in any way this time."
"It's not easy for anyone to survive in the zombie horde."
Before she could finish speaking, Hua Mi raised a long sword with one hand and held it against Su Ruyan's neck, while slapping Captain Zhao across the face with the other.
They knocked out one of Captain Zhao's teeth.
With a cold expression, she spoke to Captain Zhao and the others, whose faces were flushed with anger.
"I've never had a good temper, but after having a child, I had to give him/her a good emotional education, so I became much more easygoing."
“You haven’t offended me. Yes, you haven’t come to my door to rob me, nor have you openly tried to kill me.”
"But you have repeatedly used words to humiliate me. Do you think clay figures have no temper?"
"I was just walking my own path when this space-age ability user in your team had to jump out and keep calling me over and over again."
"Who is the burden? Now tell me who is the burden?"
Hua Mi pressed the knife in her hand closer to Su Ruyan's neck.
Su Ruyan was so frightened that she took a step back, but her body was already pressed against the wall behind her, leaving her nowhere to retreat.
It looked like Hua Mi was about to cut off Su Ruyan's neck.
Captain Zhao jumped up and down in a panic, shouting loudly.
"Don't do it, don't do it! Ruyan has all our supplies on her. If you kill her, all our efforts will be wasted."
Is it really that easy to navigate through a horde of zombies?
No.
It wasn't easy at all; they truly put in a lot of hard work.
So if Su Ruyan dies, all her supplies will disappear without a trace.
Everyone in Captain Zhao's team was on tenterhooks.
They exchanged glances and slowly approached Hua Mi from behind.
They wanted to launch a surprise attack on Hua Mi.
Because everyone knows that in this situation, a surprise attack is the only option.
Previously, Hua Mi rushed into their resting place. Everyone came and went openly, and Hua Mi's skills were indeed quite good.
But what if it's a sneak attack?
Maybe a sneak attack will succeed?
But Hua Mi seemed to have eyes in the back of her head.
"I advise you not to act rashly."
"After all, I don't know how to control my strength. If you were to ambush me, I'm not sure if I would just raise my hand and cut you down."
As she spoke, she moved her knife.
The blade pressed down a little closer to Su Ruyan's neck.
Crimson blood flowed from Su Ruyan's neck wound and landed on Hua Mi's gleaming blade.
Captain Zhao raised his hand and shouted loudly,
"Don't move, don't move, everyone, don't launch a surprise attack, let's talk this out."
"We can talk about anything properly."
No one in Captain Zhao's team dared to move anymore.
The two men who were originally planning to ambush Hua Mi took a step back.
Captain Zhao's forehead was covered in sweat. He looked at Hua Mi and spoke softly, just as he usually coaxed Su Ruyan.
"Hey beautiful, what's on your mind? Let's talk this over properly."
"What do you want? What do you want? You can tell me anything, as long as you release Ruyan."
Hua Mi sneered, looking at Su Ruyan.
"A burden, huh? You keep saying I'm a burden, and all of you keep saying I'm a burden."
"Who is the burden now?"
A lively look appeared in her fox-like eyes. Hua Mi turned her head again to look at Captain Zhao and the others.
"Now all of you kneel down and sing 'Conquer,' kneel down! Otherwise, I'll just cut off this space-age ability user in your team."
Captain Zhao was stunned. Was Hua Mi telling them to kneel down?!
