Having learned a painful lesson from the previous incident, Ji Xiaoxiao had to be wary of Zhao Batian's seemingly divinely favored protagonist aura. Before joining the Batian Group, Ji Xiaoxiao had coated her entire body with a deadly poison that would kill instantly upon contact with blood. Zhao Batian's personal contact with it sealed his fate, ensuring he would be plagued by countless poisons and meet a tragic end.
Of course, if the same thing happens again, Ji Xiaoxiao's death will not be unjust.
One person's strength is limited; how can one defy the will of Heaven?
After Ji Xiaoxiao landed on the ground, a near-miracle occurred: Zhao Batian miraculously survived, but he lost all his powers and became an ordinary person. Ordinary people can't live ordinary lives. His bizarre survival, enormous debts, countless enemies, the seven fairies who lost their beloved friends, and the vengeful spirits haunting him—all these haunted him. Zhao Batian fell from his pedestal to the mortal realm, suffering endless hardships before being bought by a research institute for a hundred million. For the rest of his life, Zhao Batian was dissected and studied by crazed experimentalists.
Back in the dark starry sky, thinking of Zhao Batian's powerful backing, Ji Xiaoxiao felt short of breath and her chest tighten. Looking at the adult inside the golden dragon pillar, she said with a wronged but stubborn tone, "Master, why is someone like Zhao Batian being helped by the heavens? Doesn't he have eyes?"
The adult shrouded in black mist coughed and said with difficulty, "I can confirm that his eyes are completely unharmed."
"Then his eyes must be just for show, otherwise why would he be so open and honest with Zhao Batian?" In Ji Xiaoxiao's eyes, Zhao Batian was the apple of God's eye.
"Alright, when you come back next time, you'll get a big reward." The adult raised his voice.
The adults held Ji Xiaoxiao firmly in their grasp, and the rewards were substantial.
Ji Xiaoxiao smacked her lips, her eyes gleaming as she gazed at the golden dragon pillar with delight, nodding repeatedly, "My lord, you are the best."
Name: Ji Xiaoxiao
Gender: Female
Strength: 90
Mental strength: 90
Progress: 6%
Title: Underachiever
Reward: The White Lotus Sacred Technique
Before she could even ask the adults what martial arts and mental strength were and what they were used for, a huge black hole appeared behind her and swallowed Ji Xiaoxiao whole.
Lan Xiaoxiao was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage in City C until she was four years old. When she was four, Lan Yihui and his wife Yang Hui adopted her.
Lan Yihui and Yang Hui have been married for many years without children. In their youth, they traveled all over the country to earn money, neglecting their children. Now that they have money, they are older and want children, but despite spending a fortune, they cannot conceive. They went to hospitals, saw doctors, and took Western and Chinese medicine, but nothing worked. They tried all sorts of folk remedies, but ultimately, all to no avail.
They wouldn't turn back until they hit a brick wall, and their hearts wept when they saw the Yellow River. Unable to keep their biological children, Lan Yihui and Yang Hui decided to adopt a child, and Lan Xiaoxiao was the lucky one chosen from among a sea of beauties.
Lan Xiaoxiao is adorable and has a sweet, innocent personality. The rough-around-the-edges Lan Yihui and Yang Hui adore her and shower her with care, attending to her every need. In just one month, the petite and introverted Lan Xiaoxiao has integrated into the Lan family.
Nothing lasts forever, and happiness is always fleeting.
Lan Xiaoxiao integrated into the Lan family, and Yang Hui, who had been declared infertile for life, immediately became pregnant. Upon learning they were carrying their own child, Lan Yihui and Yang Hui wept with joy. Lan Xiaoxiao stood awkwardly to the side, unsure whether to leave or approach, remaining frozen in place.
At first, Lan Yihui and Yang Hui believed it was Lan Xiaoxiao's blessing that allowed them to have a child of their own flesh and blood in their lifetime. As time passed, Lan Xiaoxiao, who had no blood relation to them, was gradually disliked by Lan Yihui and Yang Hui, simply because they thought she might bully their precious child in the future.
Eight months later, Yang Hui gave birth to a girl, whom she named Lan Qinying. With her own daughter, Lan Xiaoxiao became increasingly dispensable, and the love and care she once received became her only warmth and light.
Twenty years is enough time for a girl to grow into a beautiful young woman.
Lan Qinying was spoiled by Lan Yihui and Yang Hui, and had a shrewish and domineering personality. She always looked down on her only sister, Lan Xiaoxiao, and would summon her at will and dismiss her at will. If she dared to disobey, she would be punished in many ways.
If life is this ordinary, and Lan Xiaoxiao finds a man she loves and marries him in the future, then all the humiliation and insults she has endured over the years will have been worthwhile.
The apocalypse is a capricious child; it comes suddenly and unexpectedly.
The world has collapsed, people's hearts have turned to dust, zombies roam freely, and survival is a struggle.
To survive, Lan Xiaoxiao fled with the Lan family. When they were surrounded by a horde of zombies, Lan Yihui and Yang Hui abandoned Lan Xiaoxiao to distract the zombies, while they quickly left with Lan Qinying.
Lan Xiaoxiao thought she was about to die when a male zombie saved her. Knowing she was weak and easily pushed over, Lan Xiaoxiao's survival instincts drove her to follow the male zombie. In their daily interactions, Lan Xiaoxiao experienced a surprising transformation from fear to affection, and learned that the male zombie's name in life was Mo Chenggui.
A human and a zombie, different species, unable to communicate, leading to communication problems. Lonely Lan Xiaoxiao misses her family, remembering their illusory kindness; no matter how heartless, ungrateful, or unreasonable they are, she cannot abandon the Lan family. Therefore, Lan Xiaoxiao begs Mo Chenggui, hoping he can find the Lan family. Mo Chenggui readily obeys Lan Xiaoxiao's wishes and quickly locates Lan Yihui, Yang Hui, and Lan Qinying at the Hope Base.
Lan Xiaoxiao believes herself to be human. No matter how kind-hearted Mo Chenggui may be, he is not of her kind, and his heart must be different. If she cannot abandon the fierce wolves and poisonous bees of the Lan family, then abandoning Mo Chenggui would be as easy as turning her hand.
Back at the Lan family home, the family members reacted with horror at Lan Xiaoxiao's survival, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost. Lan Xiaoxiao repeatedly insisted that she was not dead. In desperation, she had no choice but to bring up the strange existence of the male zombie, Mo Chenggui.
