Chapter 33: Hard-Talk (1/2)



Pei Xi was confused. It was the first time he had supernatural power and he didn't know how to use it.

The strange energy in her palm brought a tingling and burning sensation. If she wasn't careful, it would burn her skin. Even worse consequences could occur if she used it improperly. The most important thing was that she didn't know where this strange energy came from.

She even had a strong feeling that this was not hers and could not appear at her fingertips.

It’s better to be cautious. Wait until Sister Long Yan and the others come back, and then ask secretly.

She put away her special power, stared at the deserted mountains and began to daydream again. After a while, she vaguely saw a few figures in the distance slowly walking towards her.

Looking closely, the man in the lead was Ling Lang, who had a striking head of white hair.

Behind him were the rest of the team, a group of people heading this way.

Pei Xiqing stood up, jumped and waved: "Here!"

Ling Lang had noticed her long ago. He strode over, grabbed her arm, and stared at her whole body: "Are you hurt?"

Pei Xiqing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "...I didn't."

He had a solemn expression on his face, his body covered in blood from fighting the zombie horde. His cheeks were scratched a few times, and blood flowed down his handsome face, giving him the look of a young general who had gone mad with killing.

We must have been through a fierce battle just now.

She asked, "Are you okay? Do you want me to help you?"

"..." There were other teammates behind him. Ling Lang let go of her and turned his face away. "Hmph, as long as you're not injured, you won't be a drag later. Besides, you're not a doctor or a healing person. You'd better take care of yourself and stop causing trouble for me."

Pei Xiqing curled his lips and was about to fight back when he covered his arm and frowned.

Long Yan walked over and slapped him on the back: "Why are you trying so hard? There were so many zombies just now and you were the only one holding them up..."

Then he turned to Pei Xiqing and said, "Our captain just fought his way out of the zombie-heavy area. His supernatural power almost destroyed half of City B. We couldn't catch up with him. I don't know why he's so anxious, or... for whom? I've never seen him like this before."

Pei Xiqing felt there was something else behind her words, so he could only laugh dryly: "Haha, so impressive, it must be... to come to see Brother Duan."

Long Yan was about to add fuel to the fire when Ling Lang suddenly interrupted her in a gruff voice, "Alright, Sister Long Yan, you lead your people in first."

Long Yan covered his mouth and smiled: "Okay~"

Pei Xiqing immediately said, "Brother Duan is injured. I'm sorry. It has something to do with me. I was careless just now..."

"Ling Lang." Duan Xiaolin appeared at some point, "Bring your people here."

Ling Lang immediately straightened his back, "Here I come."

He led the rest of the team into the cave.

Long Yan still stood there without moving, squinting his eyes and thinking for a moment, then looked at Pei Xiqing again.

"Injured? How could you hurt him?" She was surprised: "Brother Duan is not someone you can easily approach."

Pei Xi was very embarrassed.

Long Yan seemed to understand something, "Did you bite anyone?"

Pei Xiqing: "Yes."

Long Yan looked at her for a moment, "You really didn't hide anything from me."

Pei Xiqing said, "I don't want to lie to Sister Long Yan."

Long Yan sighed. "Just tell me the truth from now on. Don't tell others, not even Ling Lang. If they ask, just say you don't know. I don't agree because I don't think you're bad. You must have a reason for biting people, and you're fundamentally different from other zombies. But others will inevitably have wild assumptions, don't you understand?"

Judging from Brother Duan's behavior just now, it was obvious that he wanted to hide it. As long as he didn't say it and Pei Xiqing didn't say it herself, no one would know.
