You, Xu Yong, are a general of the country, dedicating yourself to the country and its people until your dying breath. That is your own business. Why put an innocent woman to death?
Liao Kongmin couldn't understand Xu Yong's thinking and held onto Ji Xiaoxiao tightly, refusing to let go.
"Lord Liao, Xu Fu is my daughter, Xu Yong's daughter."
Xu Yong's implication was that he could dispose of Xu Fu as he saw fit.
In this era, some parents see their children as nothing more than commodities.
“Lord Liao, the zombies are rampant in the capital, and the soldiers are helpless against them. Only Xu Qi can fight them.” Xu Yong’s eyes were filled with sorrow. “Lord Liao, I beg you, for the sake of the tens of thousands of people in the capital, please put Xu Qi down.”
Zombies are rampaging through the imperial city; let's rewind two hours.
The Ministry of Justice's prison, at the entrance to the Dark Abyss.
"Are you really going to release them?"
Yunming stood to Feng Yi's left, his expression unreadable.
Feng Yi turned around, grinned, and said, "It's been boring for quite a while now, I don't want to wait any longer."
Yunming glanced at Feng Yi indifferently, and the purple and blue hickeys on his body came into view.
"Boring, are you incompetent?" Yunming said sarcastically.
Since leaving the Ministry of Justice prison that day, Feng Yi has been surrounded by stunning beauties.
Feng Yi shrugged. "I just got tired of it."
Yun Ming snorted, "Didn't you say you'd only release them after killing Ji Xiaoxiao? Now, are you trying to slap yourself in the face?"
"As long as I'm happy."
Feng Yi's personality never pleased Yun Ming.
Yunming stopped speaking and watched coldly as Feng Yi broke the seal on An Wuyuan.
After a moment of silence, a series of loud roars suddenly came from underground.
"Roar...roar...roar..."
Then, one after another, blue-faced, fanged zombies rushed out of the tunnel.
"Ji Xiaoxiao, let's see what you're going to do this time?" Feng Yi said with a wicked smile.
Feng Yi had previously fed the intelligent corpse a large amount of black soul fragments at the Lu residence, greatly increasing its strength. Ji Xiaoxiao would be exhausted if she tried to eliminate it. Now, a large number of zombies have appeared, including the powerful Drought Demon Zhan Feiyang and the Undying Bone Red Fu who is not in reincarnation. Yun Ming couldn't help but worry for Ji Xiaoxiao.
At this very moment, flames blazed high outside the Lu residence. The sun overhead seemed to have dimmed somewhat.
Liao Kongmin looked up once, then lowered his eyes in deep thought, remaining silent.
His face was calm and solemn, his lips were slightly pursed, and he was dressed in the official robes of the Minister of Justice. He was imposing and dignified. Just one glare from his eyes was enough to make the people waiting for him tremble and shake.
"Lord Liao, shall we go in and take a look? Perhaps Master Xu needs our help?"
This sentence really hit Liao Kongmin right where it hurts.
Liao Kongmin's mouth moved, but he took a step back.
"No, we don't know how to catch ghosts and demons. Going in will only cause trouble for Master Xu."
Whether he was speaking to himself or warning others not to act rashly, Liao Kongmin stood proudly and motionless, and those behind him could only remain still.
In the blink of an eye, the red light dissipated, and a few strands of black thread emerged from the Lu residence.
"Lord Liao, what are those things?"
The black lines, baring their fangs and claws, looked like tiny black snakes to onlookers.
Liao Kongmin pursed his lips and remained silent. He was the one who escorted Ji Xiaoxiao into the Lu residence, and he had come into contact with some of the equipment she wore. If he wasn't delirious, the black lines hanging over the Lu residence were likely ink lines that Ji Xiaoxiao had prepared beforehand.
As long as it's not a zombie's attack!
Liao Kongmin breathed a sigh of relief, enduring the pain for almost an hour. Finally, the person he waited for wasn't Ji Xiaoxiao, but a flustered Xu Yong covered in blood.
"Lord Xu, what's wrong?" Liao Kongmin quickly helped Xu Yong, who was about to fall.
"A large number of zombies suddenly appeared in the imperial city, causing heavy casualties among the people."
"Zombies?"
Liao Kongmin's heart cracked with a snap.
"How could there be zombies? There's one in the Lu family mansion in the capital..." Liao Kongmin belatedly realized, his pupils shrinking sharply as he exclaimed in sudden understanding, "It's the Ministry of Justice prison."
After Ji Xiaoxiao was released from the Ministry of Justice prison, although she did not immediately tell Liao Kongmin the truth about what had happened inside, after a few days of rest, Liao Kongmin knew everything he should and shouldn't know, and it was all deeply engraved in his mind.
"Lord Liao, everyone in the Ministry of Justice's prison has turned into zombies."
Liao Kongmin will never forget Ji Xiaoxiao's somber expression at that time.
Since a large number of zombies have appeared in the imperial city, then it should be... no, it might be...
Liao Kongmin grabbed Xu Yong's clothes and asked, "Did they come out of the Ministry of Justice's prison?"
As a general and an elder, Xu Yong was utterly humiliated by being dragged around by the out-of-control Liao Kongmin. However, his mind was in turmoil, and he paid no heed to the situation.
"Yes," Xu Yong replied solemnly.
Liao Kongmin was stunned for a moment, then loosened his grip on Xu Yong's collar.
"How could this happen?" Liao Kongmin muttered to himself.
Ji Xiaoxiao said she had sealed off the Ministry of Justice's prison, and that they couldn't possibly break out and wreak havoc on the world anytime soon. But the facts don't lie: they've escaped.
"Lord Xu, is there something else you haven't told me?"
Liao Kongmin unconditionally believed Ji Xiaoxiao. Ji Xiaoxiao said that the zombies couldn't come out for a while, so they really couldn't come out for a while.
"Lord Xu." Liao Kongmin pressed him repeatedly, but Xu Yong remained silent.
"It was Zhan Yi and the Yuan family who were behind this."
Xu Ningyi's appearance was something no one had expected.
