Chapter 873: Chapter 873: The True God Will Ultimately Descend

Leng Yebai lifted his eyelids slightly, gazing at Captain Zhou who was dressed in women’s clothes.

Inside, he was rejecting this.

Standing next to Bai Xiqin with a tense face, he seemed somewhat reluctant to act.

"Forget it, if you don’t want to go, I’ll go."

Bai Xiqin waved his hand, and stepped towards Captain Zhou.

Leng Yebai’s face turned dark, moving a bit faster than Bai Xiqin, he strode forward and yanked Captain Zhou up from the ground.

"Whew—"

Those idle "spectators" saw Leng Yebai suddenly pull up a "woman" and let out a long sigh from their throats.

Occasionally in their dazed gazes, a sly, wicked smile would appear.

This situation actually happens often in the safe base.

As long as there’s food, there will always be women willing to be dragged away by a stranger.

Perhaps because the one dragging the woman today is a handsome man, the sighs from the onlookers became a bit more cheerful.

There were even women sitting up straight instantly, striving to face Leng Yebai.

Most of the women think they might also have a chance!

Leng Yebai’s expression became even darker.

He held onto Captain Zhou and quickly headed outside, just ready to glance at Bai Xiqin.

In one glance, he saw Bai Xiqin walking quickly, leaving him far behind.

Even while walking, she used her hand to cover her face and sped away with her head down.

"Xiao Qunqun, why are you walking so fast?"

Xiao Lan Zombie saw Bai Xiqin walking quickly and followed suit with big steps, still finding it hard to understand why Bai Xiqin was walking so briskly.

"Don’t make a sound, just pretend not to know the person behind." Bai Xiqin mumbled softly.

She discovered for the first time how embarrassing it could be.

Thankfully she didn’t personally go to pull him, otherwise, it would be even more embarrassing.

"Oh, I get it."

Xiao Lan Zombie glanced back at Leng Yebai, and then at the survivors with rich expressions, seemingly understanding something.

But to her, this kind of awkward feeling couldn’t be personally experienced; she could only guess this feeling from her past memories.

A feeling so awkward it could make your toes curl inside a three-bedroom apartment.

"Don’t look back!"

Bai Xiqin also offhandedly turned Xiao Lan Zombie’s head around, preventing her from looking back at Leng Yebai.

This way, people would be more convinced they were in cahoots with this odd uncle.

Incidentally, Bai Xiqin asked Xiao Lan Zombie to cover her face as well.

Xiao Lan Zombie didn’t find anything wrong with feeling embarrassed, but she obediently mimicked Bai Xiqin and covered her face.

Leng Yebai: ...

Creaking, creaking...

His hand unconsciously tightened, Captain Zhou stared blankly at Leng Yebai, arm pain giving him no reaction.

Letting Leng Yebai drag him, where he dragged, he walked, as if a puppet on strings.

Bai Xiqin and Xiao Lan Zombie kept their faces covered, their fingers peeking through, until they reached a deserted place and finally stopped.

Once they arrived, Leng Yebai let go, quickly moving away from Captain Zhou.

He casually rubbed his hand on his clothes, as if trying to wipe something off.

Leng Yebai furrowed his brows, took quite a while before looking at Captain Zhou, who’s face was heavily made up.

With a plop.

Captain Zhou collapsed to the ground, expressionless, without casting them a glance.

Without Leng Yebai pulling him, he returned to his previous sitting posture.

"Tsk tsk, my old brother really is dumb!"

Xiao Lan Zombie saw Captain Zhou in a heap like rotten mud and shook her head lightly.

To be deceived out of a Crystal Core by someone like this, one would wonder if Song Ning’s brain was stuffed with cotton!

"Captain Zhou, why did you come here?"

Bai Xiqin squatted down half-bent, staring levelly at Captain Zhou, holding in words.

She actually wanted to ask about Li Xue and the others’ situation, but seeing Captain Zhou’s state, didn’t dare to think further.

Bai Xiqin’s voice made Captain Zhou return briefly to his senses, his lips quivered violently but he still didn’t speak.

The closer Bai Xiqin got to Captain Zhou, the more she could smell the fragrance on him.

The skin on his face was covered with a thick foundation, close up it was severely caked.

His cheeks were severely sunken, long-term malnutrition left him as a mere skeleton.

Clearly still alive, yet more decayed and lifeless than a zombie.

Seeing Captain Zhou like this, Bai Xiqin couldn’t bring herself to ask further, her hands reached into her clothes pocket, and took out some candies.

Colorful candy wrappers were placed in Captain Zhou’s hand.

Captain Zhou looked down at the colorful candies in his hand, and a smile suddenly adorned his lips.

"Xiao Xue’er likes them, let’s save them for her."

After speaking, Captain Zhou tremblingly stuffed the candies into his clothes pocket.

Fearing they’d be unsafe, and could be snatched away, he took them out again and put them inside the clothing under the sweater.

It was then Bai Xiqin noticed Captain Zhou was wearing several women’s clothes underneath.

The innermost garment holding the candies looked familiar.

Li Xue once wore it.

Bai Xiqin’s heart sank, she instantly fell silent.

Bai Xiqin stood up, avoiding looking at Captain Zhou, eyes a bit sore.

Perhaps witnessed too much of the indifference and warmth during the apocalypse, experienced too much, Bai Xiqin didn’t shed tears.

But her brain waves unintentionally released, mixed with endless sorrow.

Xiao Lan Zombie could feel the emotions in Bai Xiqin’s brain waves, she stepped towards Bai Xiqin out of curiosity.

Feeling the emotions within the brain waves.

Unconsciously, she touched her eye socket.

No tears, but borrowing Bai Xiqin’s brain waves, she could feel the sensation of distress again.

"Xiao Qunqun, are you mourning for a friend?"

Xiao Lan Zombie’s hand rested on Leng Yebai’s hand, in her emotionless eyes also emerged a touch of sadness.

"Yes."

Bai Xiqin nodded lightly, realizing her brain waves had spread out, her thoughts shifted slightly, retracting them back.

"She died and that’s why you’re hurt, if I die, would you feel the same?"

With Bai Xiqin’s withdrawal of brain waves, the melancholy in Xiao Lan Zombie’s eyes faded significantly, yet she inexplicably posed this question to Bai Xiqin.

"You won’t die."

As soon as Xiao Lan Zombie finished, Bai Xiqin assuredly replied.

Her gaze was incredibly firm.

Xiao Lan Zombie suddenly smiled, her face radiant and alluring.

"Yeah, I definitely won’t die, still waiting to inherit the throne and then take you to enjoy life lavishly!"

Xiao Lan Zombie’s eyes were sparkling, as if housing stars within them.

At that moment, she truly understood something.

Indifference is etched into one’s bones, yet warmth can also be slowly learned.

She died, her body was cold.

She is also alive, living for warmth.

"The True God will be born eventually, the True God will be born eventually, she won’t die, won’t ever die!"

Captain Zhou suddenly stood up, eyes red, fiercely repeating to Xiao Lan Zombie.

He heard Xiao Lan Zombie saying Bai Xiqin’s friend died, causing his blank face to show other emotions.
