Xiao Ye turned his head. "It's nothing."
The rescued ability users were ecstatic.
Team leader Yuan Tou said, "Thank you for saving us. We thought there was no hope of survival..."
Shen Que tilted his head up. "Saving people is what we should do."
Fearing the zombies would return, they had to leave the house first.
Xiao Ye calmly walked down the stairs with them, when suddenly his brow furrowed.
His body felt like ants were crawling on it, and his head began to throb violently.
"Xiao Ye?"
Chu Fei noticed that Xiao Ye's expression was wrong. She thought he might have been injured during the fight.
However, Xiao Ye, with a stern face, calmly returned to the car.
"How are you all?"
Xiao Wei and the others in the car waited anxiously.
Seeing the group return, they became excited.
The couple quickly inquired about their daughter's condition.
Chu Fei shook her head, indicating she was alright.
"Just injured, thankfully not bitten by a zombie..."
Shen Que and the others were secretly relieved, as only zombie teeth were poisonous.
Chun Chun, even if bitten, would not mutate.
Xiao Ye felt a piercing pain, sweat almost soaking his clothes.
This was not a good sign.
He clutched his right hand. Was he about to turn into a zombie?
Beside them.
Chu Fei activated her healing ability, treating Shen Que and the others' wounds.
They exclaimed in awe, "Fei Fei, how many abilities have you awakened?"
Chu Fei pursed her lips and remained silent.
Her head was still burning; she just wanted to end this as soon as possible.
After finishing the healing of Shen Que and the others, Chu Fei looked in Xiao Ye's direction.
"Do you need help?"
This time, Xiao Ye had accompanied her to save Shen Que and the others.
Chu Fei wouldn't ignore Xiao Ye.
However, Xiao Ye was resisting zombification, sitting in his seat.
He remained unresponsive for a long time.
Seeing him looking down with no reaction, Chu Fei didn't push it.
Shen Que and Yuan Tou's group formed a team, stating they would travel to City A together.
"We have relatives at the City A base, and they will definitely host you well when we arrive."
Yuan Tou and his group let out hearty laughter.
This group of ability users was shrewd, sensing who had strong abilities.
They were particularly fawning over Chu Fei.
Xiao Ye, as a normal person, was ignored by Yuan Tou and his group.
After enduring the torment of mutation, Xiao Ye's sanity returned.
He looked at Yuan Tou and the others. The ability users had slightly pale faces.
For some reason.
Xiao Ye had a vague feeling that they were peculiar.
Chu Fei noticed Xiao Ye's abnormality. "You don't like them?"
Xiao Ye frowned and said in a low voice, "Why are we teaming up with them?"
Chu Fei replied, "Isn't it safer with more people?"
Xiao Ye remained silent for a moment, looking at Chu Fei with complex emotions.
"People of unknown origin can also be dangerous."
Chu Fei understood what Xiao Ye meant; he didn't want Yuan Tou as a companion.
But Shen Que and his group had already invited Yuan Tou and his people.
Should she drive them away for Xiao Ye?
"We'll reach the City A base tomorrow, and then we won't be together anymore."
Chu Fei said, exhausted.
If the team dispersed now, it was unclear what chaos might ensue.
Shen Que and his group waited in the car for a long time, and no more zombies appeared.
They decided to stay in the house where the zombies had been.
Each person was responsible for guarding for half an hour.
If there was any disturbance, they would drive away immediately.
Yuan Tou and his group were starving and asked Shen Que and his people for food.
Shen Que and his group gave them a few rotten apples.
However, Yuan Tou and his group clearly saw boxes and boxes of supplies in the car.
Xiao Ye had eaten crabs for dinner, and it was incredibly delicious.
They were dissatisfied. "Why... are we only eating this?"
Shen Que's expression turned a little unpleasant. "Those are Xiao Ye's supplies. You need his approval to get his things."
"To touch supplies, we need his consent?!"
They thought Xiao Ye was just an insignificant character in the team.
They never expected him to directly control the supplies, meaning he would become a high-ranking official at the City A base!
They would reach City A on the last day.
This time, Xiao Ye was much more generous. When Xiao Wei and the others came to ask for food.
He gave it to them.
Yuan Tou and his group couldn't hold back and also wanted to ask for food.
Suddenly, an ability user asked, confused, "You look very familiar... Have we met before?"
Xiao Ye carefully looked at their faces, his expression appearing somewhat bewildered.
The ability user said, "You shot towards the zombies then, deliberately luring them towards us. Don't you remember?!"
Upon hearing this, Yuan Tou realized it was this kid!
They had been forced to flee from the zombies, and Xiao Ye had a part to play in it.
Xiao Ye remembered the incident on the road, and his eyes suddenly turned cold. "Oh, you're those ability users who were after my supplies."
Yuan Tou and the others' faces stiffened.
They had seen Xiao Ye as a normal person back then and had harbored greedy thoughts about his supplies.
They never expected fate to cross their paths again!
"Xiao Ye, don't even think about hurting our friends."
Shen Que and his group came in front of Xiao Ye, staring at him with hostility.
Xiao Ye didn't argue with them, lifted his leg, and walked away alone.
...
In the middle of the night.
The door to Xiao Ye's room creaked open.
Xiao Wei stood by Xiao Ye's bed, bashfully saying, "Mr. Xiao, we'll reach the base tomorrow. With your supplies, you're sure to make it big in the base. I, as a weak woman, really want to have you as my support..."
Xiao Ye's leadership in the team had already deeply impressed them.
Xiao Wei unbuttoned her clothes, saying, "I know you have feelings for Chu Fei, but she's already an ability user now, and with her strong personality, she won't accept a man. Let me be your woman, alright?"
Her ingratiating tone was so sweet it was almost dripping.
Xiao Ye on the bed gave no response.
However, Xiao Wei faintly heard a low groan.
This was definitely a hint!
"I'm coming, Mr. Xiao..."
Xiao Wei climbed onto Xiao Ye's bed, intending to get closer to him by the moonlight.
Suddenly.
She saw Xiao Ye's face clearly, his expression seemed stiff to some extent.
His arm trembled violently, and the man's eyes, with a blank expression, were open.
His pupils had subtly turned grayish-white, which was incredibly terrifying in the night.
Her smiling face instantly froze.
"Ah!"
Xiao Wei let out a scream and quickly scrambled off the bed, terrified.
Soon.
The lights were turned on.
Shen Que and his group burst in and saw Xiao Wei in disarray.
"Xiao Ye, you bastard, what do you think you're doing to Xiao Wei?"
Shen Que, full of righteous indignation, intended to teach Xiao Ye a lesson.
The next second.
He rushed to the bed, only to be slapped to the ground by Xiao Ye.
His strength had become immense.
Xiao Ye saw the blinding bright light, and his sense of smell became extremely sharp.
His eyes returned to their normal color.
However...
Xiao Ye clenched his fist. He was already half-zombified!
A hint of decay reached his nostrils.
His icy gaze swept towards Yuan Tou's group at the doorway.
Yuan Tou and his group looked normal, but their bodies were permeated with the stench of zombie decay.
