Zombie Bodyguard

Chapter 1128: The Trial of Life and Death (Part 1)


"Who is her sister? I don't have a lower-class Blood Clan brother like him," Charlotte said proudly, refusing to acknowledge it at all.

High-ranking Blood Clan members have a natural dominion over lower-class vampires, treating them merely as tools. They would never consider them friends, let alone family unless they were kin before becoming vampires.

However, Charlotte had no recollection of this brother Rossi, so it's impossible for her to recognize a lower-class Blood Clan as her brother.

Of course, it's also possible that Rossi had mistaken the person. After all, Lin Tian hadn't seen what his sister looked like. One cannot solely rely on a design mark or blond hair to assert a sibling relationship between the two.

These days, it's hard to find foreigners with red hair, but there are plenty with blond hair.

"Rossi, she doesn't acknowledge you as her brother, so there's no need for me to hold back," Lin Tian said coldly.

Charlotte, however, gave a strange smile, then erupted into a cloud of black mist. Lin Tian thought she was about to transform into a large bat again. He darted into the black mist, not minding the idea of riding a bat once more.

But Lin Tian found nothing inside the mist. As he was about to use his super vision, Charlotte's voice rang out from above.

"Lin Tian, I'm leaving. We will definitely meet again."

With just these words left behind, Lin Tian used his super vision to look up and saw a large bat flying out of the barrier, disappearing into the night sky in the blink of an eye.

To leave just like that without a hint; she was quite decisive. Lin Tian didn't know whether to envy her ability to fly or to marvel at her decisiveness.

Lin Tian wasn't sure if vampires could be killed or how to kill them, but he knew that if Charlotte hadn't left, he would have made her wish she were dead.

"Brother Tian, what do we do? Charlotte left the barrier and these skeleton soldiers," Rossi asked respectfully.

Although Rossi had become stronger, he could feel Lin Tian was even stronger. It wasn't just a simple increase in power; it was a massive leap. Both in strength and in his heart, Rossi acknowledged Lin Tian as his master.

"Let's leave the barrier and find Miss and Second Miss. Hopefully, Zhang Lingyu has already found them," Lin Tian replied, frowning at the surrounding skeleton soldiers.

Lin Tian retracted his zombie fangs, returning to normal, and led Rossi out of the abandoned factory. The skeleton soldiers tried to block their path but were easily dealt with by Lin Tian and Rossi.

Reaching the edge of the barrier outside the abandoned factory, although Charlotte had left, the barrier remained. Before advancing a level, Lin Tian had no way to deal with the barrier, but now, as a third-level Yellow-eyed Zombie, he disregarded it.

Also, with Charlotte gone, no one was maintaining the barrier, making it easier to break. He clenched his fist, swung it forward, and with a "bang," the barrier crackled and shattered, leaving only specks of starlight in the night sky.

"Being strong is indeed good," Lin Tian looked at his fist and said with a sigh, deeply feeling the thrill brought by great power.

Perhaps this is why the Ghost Mound brothers were so obsessed with power. With great strength, one could do as they pleased without any hindrance, leading to a life of ease.

As soon as the barrier shattered, Lin Tian heard a voice calling his name. He turned his head towards the direction from where the sound came and sped up, breaking through any skeletons in his path effortlessly.

From afar, Lin Tian saw three figures. One dressed in a long purple robe with long hair, holding a purple whip—attacking while calling into the abandoned factory. It was Zhang Lingyu, who had gone out before, but she was injured, finding it very challenging to deal with the endless skeleton soldiers.

The one in a white dress, Miss, was in an even worse state than Zhang Lingyu, relying on her longsword just to stand.

Lin Tian was stunned when he saw Second Miss with red hair. Though he had seen it in a previous image, witnessing it in reality struck him like a lightning bolt. Pain and numbness engulfed his mind.

The kind angel had turned into an unclear devil, holding onto a sliver of obsession—saving Lin Tian, which made Lin Tian's heart ache even more.

"Second Miss..." Lin Tian shouted at Xiao Manxuan, drawing the attention of the three women to him.

Upon seeing Lin Tian appear, a slight relieved smile spread across Miss's face before her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

"Miss..." Lin Tian shouted, his soul nearly leaving his body. He quickly dashed over to catch her.

After confirming that she had only fainted from depletion of True Qi without any danger to her life, Lin Tian sighed deeply in relief. Miss had already run out of True Qi but had kept going on sheer will until she saw Lin Tian was safe, then fainted.

"Who are you? Let go of my sister." Xiao Manxuan attacked after seeing Lin Tian holding Miss.

Hearing "Who are you?" and seeing her unfamiliar expression, Lin Tian's heart ached again. Despite Xiao Manxuan's attack, he couldn't fight back. Instead, he stood up, shielding Miss from Second Miss's blow.

With a "bang," Lin Tian was knocked flying by a palm strike. Rossi saw this and was about to rush forward to stop Xiao Manxuan.

"Rossi, stand down. Are you going to get yourself killed?" Lin Tian quickly stopped him.

After taking a palm strike, Lin Tian realized how formidable Second Miss had become. Though he wasn't injured, the fact that she could knock him flying showed that Rossi couldn't handle even a single hit. He would end up like a skeleton soldier, burnt to ashes by Second Miss's red flames.

Lin Tian was no exception; where he had been struck on his chest, red flames instantly ignited. With the red flames burning, the skin on Lin Tian's chest sizzled, looking like overcooked steak in an oven.

These red flames could harm a third-level zombie body, showing just how terrifying they were. It was no wonder no skeleton could withstand a hit from Second Miss.

Lin Tian's eyes flashed, and a purple flame mark appeared on his forehead. As the flame mark appeared, he opened his palm, and with a thought, purple flames ignited in his hand.

He brought the purple flames closer to his chest, and the red flames were absorbed inside instantly. Once all the red flames disappeared, the burnt area on his chest healed rapidly at an incredible speed.

"Lin Tian, your... your forehead mark, and the flames in your hand..." Zhang Lingyu exclaimed in shock, her eyes wide open.

A zombie not afraid of fire and even capable of controlling it? What more can a Demon Exorcist do? Fire is considered one of the greatest enemies of zombies; they usually avoid fire at all costs.

Lin Tian glanced at Zhang Lingyu and said, "I told you, once everything is over, you can do whatever you want with me. For now, I just want to restore Second Miss to her original self."
