Chapter 976: Zombie Horde
Chapter 976: Zombie Horde
It would be false to say that Bai Lingling wasn’t moved by his words.
She felt a stir of emotion in her heart.
The Dark Yin Crystals were extremely important to her. If Ouyang Ye were to leave the group, she would have to head back empty-handed. At that time, her father couldn’t be saved, and those people at home would ridicule her.
Any girl would be moved when Ouyang Ye said those words.
But those words weren’t completely for Bai Lingling.
It was for Luo Tian to hear.
Ouyang Ye wasn’t an idiot. Even though Luo Tian so-called saved him, the process had completely pissed him off. Luo Tian’s actions clearly carried vengeance when he made his moves. Ouyang Ye said to himself, “You just wait for this daddy. Watch how I’m going to play you to death!”
Luo Tian pretended he didn’t know anything.
He was also clear about what was going on and said to himself, “You want to play with me? I will soon kick your remaining two eggs until they explode!”
Bai Lingling looked over Ouyang Ye’s injuries and asked, “Do you want to rest a bit first?”
Ouyang Ye responded with a smile, “I’m fine! Don’t worry about me; we can continue onward!”
Ouyang Ye actually didn’t suffer any serious injuries.
Apart from Luo Tian wildly stepping on his crotch several times, which caused unbearable pain, he wasn’t physically attacked by the female zombie. He wasn’t poisoned either and had only suffered a good scare. He had recovered after taking a pill that recovered one’s stamina, and his complexion had pretty much returned to normal.
Bai Lingling didn’t say anything unnecessary and said, “Continue advancing with our previous formation.”
Luo Tian stepped out and went to the front.
Behind him was Zhao Hai, then Bai Xiong, then Bai Lingling, and Ouyang Ye brought in the rear.
Just when Ouyang Ye’s eyes twitched, and his expression turned fierce, wanting to scold Luo Tian along the lines of, “Damn dog thing! You just wait for this daddy,” Luo Tian suddenly turned around and said with shock, “Young Master Ye, behind you…”
Ouyang Ye shuddered in fear and immediately ran off to the side, almost pissing his pants.
Luo Tian started laughing, “There’s nothing behind you! I was only playing a joke on you, hahaha…”
Even Zhao Hai couldn’t hold in his laughter when he saw Ouyang Ye’s scared expression.
Not to mention Bai Lingling and Bai Xiong.
This made Ouyang Ye lose all face, so his expression turned extremely ugly.
Bai Lingling coughed a few times before saying seriously, “Let’s be more serious and stop scaring people. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being impolite to you.”
Luo Tian chuckled a few times before turning around and heading forward.
“Whooosh~… wooooooo~…”
A cold, eerie sound of the wind was heard.
It stung their face a little, and the further down they went, the more pungent the smell of rotting flesh was.
After walking for around ten minutes, Luo Tian suddenly stopped.
“What is it?” Bai Lingling immediately asked while her expression changed.
Luo Tian whispered, “There’s something ahead.”
Zhao Hai stepped forward and stared into the darkness. He then sent out his spiritual senses and said, “What is it? How come I can’t detect anything?”
Ouyang Ye smiled in disdain, “It can’t be that you’re so scared that you’re making stuff up, right?”
He wanted to find ways to knock Luo Tian down a peg.
Luo Tian was unfazed and said, “I wonder who it was back then that pissed and shit his pants in fear…”
Bai Lingling frowned, “Enough with the nonsense. What’s going on up front? How come I can’t sense anything either?”
Luo Tian said seriously, “I don’t know what the situation is up ahead, but my intuition tells me it’s dangerous. It’s very likely that there are multiple zombies ahead of us. Can you guys take on several zombies at the same time?”
“What intuition?”
“My intuition tells me that you are about to die. So, are you dead yet?” Ouyang Ye said with disdain.
Intuition was something very vague.
It could be all based on a person’s experience.
In front of them was a corner that limited their vision ahead. One could hear an eerie gusty wind, and the pungent smell was slightly stronger. Even though it was very slight, Luo Tian could still clearly identify the elevated levels. This was what made him different from the other people.
Intuition told him that around the corner were some zombies, and it might even be a big group of them.
Bai Lingling was anxious to get the Dark Yin Crystals, and she was also someone who didn’t believe a martial artist who hunted demonic beasts for their livelihood had any intuition. To her, intuition was a thing a person made up to justify their own actions. So, she ordered, “Continue moving forward.”
“Little Sister Ling, I think he’s scared.” Ouyang Ye said with a smile.
Luo Tian immediately responded, “I am actually quite scared. Young Master Ye, how about you go ahead and be the one in front?”
Ouyang Ye was momentarily speechless before saying, “My task is to attack. If I’m in charge of luring the monsters back here, can you take my spot in attacking? How much damage can you do when your strength is only at the Four Elements 3rd rank?”
Bai Lingling interrupted them, “Enough arguing and keep advancing.”
Luo Tian exhaled before saying, “Don’t blame me for not warning you guys. Make your preparations, and don’t piss your pants later.”
Luo Tian then glanced at Bai Lingling and said, “If a large group of zombies do come out later, make sure you don’t panic. Run back to the long corridor behind us on the left. It will be easier for us to defend there and hard for them to attack. It’s a very favorable spot for our group formation.”
After saying that, Luo Tian moved forward and around the corner into the darkness.
Ouyang Ye had a disdainful look on his face and said: ”He’s obviously afraid yet still wants to argue about it and talk as if he was so powerful. Little Sister Ling, I think he’s just a person who tries to scam people for money. You just wait and see how I will take care of him afterward.”
Bai Lingling didn’t respond and only furrowed her brow.
“How come he’s not back yet?”
“There isn’t even a bit of sound. He shouldn’t have encountered an accident, right?”
“The lack of sound means he is safe. If he encounters a Bloodthirsty Zombie, he will definitely scream like a girl.” Ouyang Ye maintained his face of disdain as he didn’t believe Luo Tian’s intuition.
Bai Xiong’s brow was also furrowed as he commented, “Something is off.”
Bai Lingling’s concentration turned serious as she shouted, “Prepare for battle!”
She couldn’t sense the presence of any zombies nearby, but a sense of fear rose up in her heart.
Ouyang Ye was briefly stunned before saying, “Little Sister Ling, there’s definitely no zombies ahead. If there were zombies, that kid would be running back in fear already.”
At this moment, Luo Tian sprinted around the corner back to them and shouted, “Run!”
Ouyang Ye smiled in disdain first before saying, “Are you trying to scare us again? Do you think we grew up being scared? With your low cultivation realm, can you even come back alive if you encounter zombies? And now you’re trying to tell us there are zombies chasing after you?”
Luo Tian didn’t look at him and only glanced at Bai Lingling before yelling out once more, “Quickly run! Run to the place I spoke of before! It’s a zombie horde!”
After his voice faded, the sound of intense shaking could be heard.
Footsteps sounding like thunder started heading toward them.
A female zombie with scattered hair was the first to appear around the corner. Ouyang Ye recalled the scene he had just experienced and instantly ran off with a sickened face.
Their formation was instantly broken after losing him!
