In just a few breaths, Li Xiao killed the zombie on his side and was about to go check on the one that had just run past when he saw Liu Dandan hiding behind Zheng Yongnian.
When she saw Liu Dandan's outstretched hands, her eyes widened in terror, and her heart pounded with fear, sensing that something terrible was about to happen.
"Brother Nian! Watch out behind you!" Just as she called out to warn him, Liu Dandan's hand was already behind Zheng Yongnian, forcefully pushing him forward. The zombie was right in front of them...
"No..." Li Xiao shouted, but still couldn't stop Liu Dandan's actions.
Zheng Yongnian had been preparing to turn around when he heard Li Xiao's warning, but he wasn't as fast as Liu Dandan. Just as he turned around, a strong force pushed him forward.
He was swinging his knife, preparing to deliver the final blow to the zombie he was fighting. The knife had already been swung, and there was no going back.
As the blade struck the zombie's neck, the person was also pushed forward, their body propelled forward by the force behind them, with the third zombie charging towards them...
Zheng Yongnian was also stunned. Why did he suddenly lunge forward?
Was I being used as a human shield?
In a flash, I thought of many things, and my last thought was, "That's it! I'm doomed!"
Li Xiao panicked and couldn't help but scream, "Brother Nian!"
The sound was so loud that everyone in their team looked over.
It was at this time that everyone saw Zheng Yongnian's predicament.
Just as Zheng Yongnian was about to face the zombie head-on, Li Xiao only had time to reach out and chop at it, but there was still some distance between them, and she only managed to strike the back of its head. It didn't cause much damage.
The zombie's outstretched hands were about to touch Zheng Yongnian's chest when Li Xiao realized it was too late.
He watched helplessly as his companions were in danger.
At this moment, tears streamed down Li Xiao's face, and her angry and sorrowful cries of "Ah ah" could not stop it from happening.
As the distance drew closer, Li Xiao's vision gradually blurred, as if the action was slowing down, unfolding frame by frame before her eyes.
You can't catch him even if you want to; you can only watch him mercilessly happen right in front of you.
Just when Li Xiao thought Zheng Yongnian was beyond saving, and only when Zheng Yongnian was one centimeter away from the zombie, a force suddenly pounced on the zombie.
Zheng Yongnian's chest narrowly missed the zombie, which just grazed his chest and fell to one side.
Even with that force, the zombie's claw still managed to slash across Zheng Yongnian's chest, leaving a not-so-short gash.
Li Xiao thought Zheng Yongnian was beyond saving, but then she saw the zombie rush to one side.
She saw it; a zombie had used the force of the impact to come over and hit the zombie that was about to pounce on Zheng Yongnian, sending it flying.
Looking in the direction of the zombie that was hurtling towards them, they saw that it was Shao Jie's leg that he hadn't yet retracted.
Tears streamed down Li Xiao's face. She took two steps forward, knife in hand. As her chest heaved, she saw Zheng Yongnian's clothes, which were ripped to shreds by zombies, and her heart sank.
The despair, the chill in my heart that I couldn't describe, and the resentment that I couldn't suppress at all.
She gritted her teeth, her eyes blazing with fury, and with a menacing air, she charged past Zheng Yongnian with her knife, slapping the terrified Liu Dandan across the face twice.
"Ahhh—you, you dare hit me?!" Liu Dandan was dizzy from the two slaps, and her cheeks swelled up instantly.
"I'm going to beat you up. Damn it, you dare to play dirty tricks on me. I'll beat you to death, so what?" Li Xiao gritted her teeth, wishing she could tear this hateful woman in front of her to pieces.
Just as Liu Dandan was about to rush forward, she was pulled back by her companions. Another person noticed that Li Xiao's eyes were strange and feared that he might really kill Liu Dandan, so he had no choice but to stand in front of Liu Dandan and block her.
Li Xiao was filled with rage, wishing she could kill Liu Dandan right then and there. They hadn't encountered anyone who would resort to underhanded tactics in all this time, but today they had witnessed it firsthand.
"I'm telling you, you'd better protect her tightly. If no one protects her, I'll kill her." Li Xiao stared fiercely at Liu Dandan, wishing she could kill her right now.
Liu Dandan was initially furious after being slapped twice, but she became somewhat frightened when she saw Li Xiao's eyes.
However, it's a different story when someone is protecting you from behind.
She knew her own worth; only she possessed the spatial ability. She was someone who deserved to be treated with utmost respect, and as long as she was needed, nothing would happen to her.
She felt a secret sense of pride, and her face revealed that pride without any attempt to hide it.
Seeing this woman so smug after doing that kind of thing, Li Xiao felt a surge of anger.
"Ha, you guys are really pathetic to have teammates like this."
Li Xiao suppressed her anger; she couldn't let these people get away with it. Seeing that the expressions on their faces remained unchanged, Li Xiao added fuel to the fire, "Pushing someone today, what about tomorrow?" She smiled coldly, "When your own life is threatened, anyone can be the scapegoat. Congratulations, you're all reserves. Maybe one day, you can all be pushed out. Anyway, once it happens, it will happen again, and countless times."
Li Xiao slowly recounted the possible events that would occur in the future. As she watched the increasingly grim expressions on the faces of the several superhumans in front of her, she knew that she had achieved the result she wanted.
"Hmph, let's start from the first thing and then the second, let's start from today and then the next."
"No, no, it can't be! You bitch, you're spreading rumors." Liu Dandan knew that what she was doing was not good for her, and she wanted to refute it, but it seemed that her rebuttal was not strong enough.
"Ha, spreading rumors. Fine, let's see. Anyway, we don't want this kind of person. He's a ticking time bomb; who knows when he'll explode? When that happens, he'll have to bear the consequences."
After finishing her sentence, Li Xiao stopped talking nonsense and turned to Zheng Yongnian's side to check on his injuries.
This anger won't just end like this.
Shao Jie rushed to Zheng Yongnian's side and shielded him behind him. At this point, saying anything would be pointless; they needed to get out of there first.
Li Xiao ran to their side, intending to check on Zheng Yongnian's injuries, but he refused.
It's already like this, but that's how things are now. Let's focus on what's to come.
The zombies around them hadn't been completely eliminated and were still trapping them here. Their progress was slow, and they were still quite a distance from the supermarket.
