“Duan Juan, go and inform Chief Wu about this. He’s in my room.”

“Yes, madam!”

Once Qiu Lili left, Lin Qiao told Duan Juan, who was waiting for her by the door, to inform Wu Chengyue about what happened, then started pacing in Yuan Tianxing’s room.

“What’s wrong? Did something bad happen?” Yuan Tianxing looked at her and asked with confusion. He knew that Lin Qiao was pacing around because she was anxious. Based on the question that she had asked him earlier, he figured that she was worried about the two young men who were escorting Lin Qiao.

Lu Tianyi? Eh? Lu Tianyu…

He suddenly recalled the name of the previous owner of Lin Qiao’s body and figured it out. “Is Lu Tianyi related to your current identity?”

Earlier on, Yuan Tianxing had asked Du Yuanxing to dig into Lu Tianyu’s background. The latter only learned that she was an evil and disgusting woman, but didn’t find out that she had a family.

Because of her awful personality, she was always alone in the base, with no family or friends. All she had were those bodyguards under Yang Chao’s command, who were pretending to protect her.

“He’s her half-brother,” Lin Qiao said.

“Half-brother!” Yuan Tianxing exclaimed, then asked, “Why didn’t anyone know about that?”

Lin Qiao sighed and said, “They didn’t have a good relationship. After the apocalypse, their family was broken, and they each went a separate way. However, her brother often protected her secretly. She didn’t know.”

“Is that so… I thought no one in the entire Sea City Base was sincerely nice to Lu Tianyu. Unexpectedly, she had a brother. What’s going on now? Have you sensed that something is happening to them? No way! Are you able to sense them through such a long distance?” Yuan Tianxing looked at her with surprise.

Lin Qiao shook her head and said, “It’s not about the distance. I can sense him because my body seems to be connected with Lu Tianyi in some way. I’m feeling uneasy now. I think it’s like telepathy between twins, or something like that… I’m not sure. But, as you know, since I became zombies, I’m more sensitive than normal people, even normal zombies.”

Yuan Tianxing looked at her and felt that she was telling the truth. He knitted his brows and said, “If they were attacked and Yan Fangyu died, would Wu Chengyue blame us for that? After all, we just had a problem with Yan Fangyu. We do have the motive.”

Lin Qiao raised her eyebrows and replied, “He needs to provide evidence before accusing us. With no proof, why would we admit that it’s our people who attacked them? Besides, Yan Fangyu should die. Even if no other people tried to kill her, I’d do it myself in a while.”

“So, you have that plan!” Yuan Tianxing said.

Lin Qiao snorted and responded, “Does she think that she can stay alive after killing one of my men? I’m just letting her live for a couple of days more.”

“Wu Chengyue would get angry if he heard that!” Yuan Tianxing laughed. He was wearing a relaxed expression, as he had guessed that Lin Qiao had such a plan long ago.

…

Qiu Lili followed the blood scent and found Lu Tianyi. She found him lying in ruins, covered in blood.

“Oi! Are you dead?” Qiu Lili landed by his side and removed those stones and branches from him.

Lu Tianyi was still alive, albeit at his last gasp.

Qiu Lili sniffed at him, then reached out her hand to feel his heartbeat.

She knew that Lin Qiao would certainly be able to save Lu Tianyi as long as she sent him to her timely. However, Lin Qiao asked her to bring both Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming back. So now, she still needed to look for the other one.

She didn’t know if Lu Tianyi could hold on; she supposed that he could. He was a level-five superpowered man after all, and his energy had been protecting his heart and brain.

Qiu Lili sighed. She knew that even if he died, she should at least bring his body back.

She was a clean freak, but at that moment, she couldn’t care that much. She bent over and helped Lu Tianyi up, then carried him on her back.

Her white dress was immediately dyed red.

Carrying Lu Tianyi, she easily hopped on top of the building nearby, then swiftly moved toward Kong Qingming.

On the other side, Kong Qingming was hiding in a dark area, holding his breath and restraining his vibe as much as possible. He couldn’t stay hiding there. As long as the enemy showed a sign of attacking Yan Fangyu, he would immediately show up to draw the enemy’s attention back.

He hid there for a while, and then as he had thought, the enemy lost the interest in finding him. The strong gale moved toward Yan Fangyu.

At that moment, Kong Qingming immediately stepped out, making the surrounding trees grow crazily to block the way over there. He wasn’t able to block the way for real, but was able to sense the enemy’s location.

The battle had lasted for quite a while, and he had gradually sensed the enemy’s location. It was also because the enemy clearly didn’t want to keep hiding anymore.

Seeing those crazily growing plants, the enemy stopped and rushed again at Kong Qingming, as the latter expected.

The enemy started a hurricane which was even stronger than a level-ten typhoon. The surrounding trees were immediately uprooted and thrown to the ground. The utility poles and window glasses from the nearby buildings were all blown into the sky.

Down on the ground, Kong Qingming was trying his best to dodge the things descending from the sky, and those falling trees and utility poles. Meanwhile, a great wave of wind blades swished at him.

The dark figure was standing on a roof. It was dark in the night, but some people were able to feel each other with their energies and sharp sensations.

Kong Qingming discovered that even though the enemy was very good at controlling the wind, he or she never launched other kinds of attacks except wind blades and strong gales. He couldn’t tell if the enemy was too lazy to launch other kinds of attacks, or if he or she only wanted him to die slowly.

However, he was pretty sure that he was going to die this time.

He had lost too much blood, and consumed about seventy percent of his energy. With the rest of his energy, he needed to defend himself and block the enemy’s attacks.

He became weaker and weaker, and started losing his power.

He began praying in his heart. It had been so long. Yan Fangyu should at least have run far away. She would be on her own now, as Kong Qingming was going to collapse.

Once again, he dodged a chair which was flying at him, then rolled on the ground. But then, a signboard which was blown off from a store nearby landed on his foot.

“Ou…” Kong Qingming clenched his teeth and gave a muffled moan.
