Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 85: The Demonic Pair
Chapter 85: Chapter 85: The Demonic Pair
Ye Xuan felt more energetic when he went back to his apartment. Most of the fatigue had disappeared and he could feel a foreign energy moving in his meridians.
He decided to use that energy to cultivate and see if he could assimilate it into his superpower.
Sitting cross-legged on the sofa, he emptied his mind and started to meditate. After an hour, he still failed to assimilate that foreign energy into his superpower but he could feel it being absorbed by his body.
The effect was so minimal that if he was not concentrating on it, he would have missed it. But he could tell that his body was a little stronger than before.
It felt like his physique had been improved. Even though it was only a negligible amount of improvement, it was still there.
He realized that the things that Chu Miao or the Chu family had were precious and shouldn’t be brought out casually.
At that moment he also realized that he had been too excited and forgot to advise Chu Miao about revealing her teleportation ability.
If they go to kill zombies that night, he had to remember to tell her about it. Also, she shouldn’t give that water to other people so easily.
After making this decision, he concentrated on cultivating. After all, as a man, what he needed to do the most was to get stronger. Strong enough to fight any enemy that comes his way and to protect those he wishes to protect.
He took several crystal cores and placed them on the sofa where he could reach easily. Then he took two crystal cores, one in each hand and started absorbing them while cultivating. ƒreewebɳovel.com
For four hours, he sat on the same spot and cultivated until Pei Ming came into his apartment to bring him lunch.
Only then did he take a break. The other former soldiers knew that he didn’t like being disturbed so they usually meet and cook on the 17th or 18th floors.
He had lunch, took a shower and went to bed. Even though the water and cultivation had helped him recover. He knew that his body needed rest.
Chu Miao did the same thing as Ye Xuan and went to bed after spending some time with her family.
She had also told them about going out tonight to the mall to collect supplies since the zombies had been cleared.
She woke up at 6.00 pm, had dinner with her family and began to prepare to go out. There was not much to prepare actually but she needed to make sure that everyone had a bottle of spiritual spring water, crystal cores, and suitable weapons.
The zombies in the mall may have been cleared but no one knew what might happen going back there today. So, it is always good to be prepared for battle when the situation is unclear.
She had learned this after going to unexpected and unplanned battles in her previous life in the Wuxin dynasty.
They left the house at 8.25pm and stopped the elevator on the 19th floor. As soon as the elevator opened, the family saw Ye Xuan standing there waiting.
Chu Miao noticed that he looked more refreshed than that morning when they parted ways in her apartment.
"Good evening Grandpa Chu, good evening Uncle, good evening Auntie, good evening brother Chu." Ye Xuan first greeted everyone respectfully before turning to Chu Miao and a smile appeared on his cold face.
"Good evening Chu Miao." He finally greeted her.
"Good evening." Everyone replied in unison and they warmly invited him into the elevator.
"Thank you." Ye Xuan said in gratitude as he entered the elevator.
Grandpa Chu thought that the person who raised the young man did a good job. He was even grateful to be invited in a public elevator.
"Chu Miao, are we going back to the mall?" Ye Xuan asked as a way to start a conversation.
"Yes. We killed the zombies in the surrounding area after all. If we don’t collect the supplies in the mall, it will benefit someone else and all our hard work would have gone to waste." Chu Miao replied.
"Has the military not collected the supplies in that mall? They took over most of the supply points and moved everything in the first few days of the apocalypse." Grandpa Chu asked.
"It should be because they focused more on the popular and large supply points where they could get a large amount of stock at once. They should have left the smaller and unpopular locations to the citizens who go out to kill zombies." Ye Xuan replied.
"I guess it should be a way to encourage more people to go out and kill zombies. The people know that if they are able to secure the locations with supplies then they would have enough food and water and won’t starve." Father added.
The group reached the ground floor and exited the elevator together.
There were still people who were sitting outside the building as the temperature had gone down to 35° Celsius after sundown.
The moment those people saw Chu Miao and Ye Xuan exit the elevator, they were startled and got up like their seats were on fire. They all huddled towards a corner of the building wall, shivering like quails.
It was a funny scene considering how last night they had blocked the two with such bravado but now they didn’t even want to be near them.
The people who were sitting with those who witnessed the incident that morning also moved away. Even though they didn’t personally witness the killing of the young man, gossip travels fast, and the whole building, even those in other buildings in the community had heard about it.
People were already calling Ye Xuan and Chu Miao ’The demonic pair’. Not only because of their ruthlessness, but also because of their looks.
They had the kind of beautiful and handsome faces that would literally stop traffic.
It was mind-boggling for some people how such good-looking people could
be so emotionless when taking a life.
