It was 3 a.m.
In Dejin Town, Y City.
Just as the night was deepest and most still, suddenly a sky-shattering roar broke the silence of the entire town.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
The roaring continued relentlessly, like thunder from the heavens, or the bellowing of a giant beast.
Before long, the town's police followed the sound to a village nearly two kilometers from the town center.
The biting cold wind became shrill and piercing along with the roaring!
As they approached the source of the sound, the police saw a pair of terrifying, blood-red eyes!
"Zombies, run for it!"
"Roar!!!!!!"
Two minutes later, over a dozen police officers lay in pools of blood, none spared from the carnage.
Soon after, people from several nearby villages gathered in groups and rushed over from all directions. Ultimately, like those police officers, these people too fell victim to the zombies' fangs shortly after their arrival, their blood completely drained!
"Roar!" The zombie's roar still spread through the wind, the decibel level growing higher and higher, leaving the surrounding villagers trembling with fear, their skin crawling!
Then, drawn by the scent of blood, the zombie stepped into the village.
Half an hour later, after sucking the blood of over three hundred people from three villages, the zombie climbed to the top of a hill nearby and howled at the sky. As it roared and bellowed, its blood boiled within, and the Five Elements Magic within its blood surged exponentially.
This zombie was Wang Chuan.
Not until the sky began to brighten did the roaring that disturbed the people of Dejin Town finally cease. As the bloodlust faded from his eyes, Wang Chuan looked towards the direction of Y City's downtown, his eyes filled with murderous intent, and he said, "Chen Hao, Y City, I want every one of you to join my wife and child in death!"
...
Six o'clock in the morning.
Ye Yuqiao, half-asleep, reached out with her right hand to the side, and after grabbing at air, she suddenly opened her eyes, wondering why Chen Hao wasn't lying next to her. After struggling for half a minute, she got up slowly and shouted, "Bastard, bastard!"
After a while, receiving no response from Chen Hao, Ye Yuqiao got out of bed and walked out of the room.
Upon reaching the living room, Ye Yuqiao was surprised to find Chen Hao lying on the floor, eyes closed as if he had fainted.
"Ah! Chen Hao!" Ye Yuqiao exclaimed, then immediately sat down beside him, propping Chen Hao up against her chest. "Chen Hao, what's wrong with you?"
After a short while, Chen Hao opened his eyes, his complexion suddenly turning a deathly pale, then instantly changing to a dark yellow, before switching back to pale again, cycling repeatedly.
"Yuqiao!" Chen Hao said in a weak voice, looking at Ye Yuqiao, "I think I didn't succeed when practicing the Return to Yang Spell up to the twenty-eighth chapter. Now, I feel terrible, alternating between hot and cold!"
"Return to Yang Spell!" Ye Yuqiao furrowed her brows. After helping Chen Hao to the sofa to rest, she immediately called Tang Jing.
Fifteen minutes later, Tang Chao arrived, using Qinggong to bring Tang Jing with him.
Those fifteen minutes felt endlessly long to Ye Yuqiao. Watching the twitching expression on Chen Hao's face as he lay in her arms, she felt as if someone was stabbing her heart with a small knife over and over, and in her helplessness could only hold onto Chen Hao and weep bitterly.
"Yuqiao, don't panic yet!" Tang Jing said, trying to comfort Ye Yuqiao. Seeing how desperate Ye Yuqiao was for Chen Hao's safety, Tang Jing realized that Ye Yuqiao's care for Chen Hao was every bit as deep as his care for her.
"Okay," Ye Yuqiao nodded.
Leaning close to Chen Hao, Tang Jing observed him for a while then asked with a knitted brow, "It shouldn't be a big problem; it's just Yang Energy running amok in your body because you failed to practice the Return to Yang Spell properly! I've experienced the same situation myself before, although I started failing at the tenth chapter, so the stray Yang Energy in my body wasn't that much, and I recovered quickly. Later on, after failing multiple times, the meridians in my body got used to it and would regulate on their own!"
After taking a deep breath, Tang Jing continued, "But he's different. He was too successful in his earlier cultivation, reaching the twenty-eighth chapter all at once. The excessive Yang Energy rampaging through his body, combined with his meridians not being used to this, made his reaction so violent!"
"So, what do we do now?" Ye Yuqiao asked urgently, her face now dry from tears but streaked with the marks they left.
"We can only wait, let his body gradually adjust and adapt. When I failed my first attempt at the thirtieth chapter, it took me a whole day to recover," Tang Jing said with a sigh, "I'm afraid he won't be able to use the Yin Yang Arts for the time being, and he absolutely must not use Yin Qi Spiritual Power either, as the rampaging Yang Energy in his body would counteract the Yin Qi Spiritual Power when he tries to channel it!"
"Doesn't that mean I'll be useless for a long time to come?" Chen Hao suddenly opened his eyes and said.
Tang Jing nodded.
Ye Yuqiao reached out and touched Chen Hao's intermittently cold and hot face, speaking softly to comfort him, "Take this time to rest well, I believe with your talent you will recover quickly."
"But what about the situation with Wang Chuan!" Chen Hao asked.
As it happened, just as Chen Hao finished speaking, his phone in the room suddenly rang.
Instantly, an ominous premonition took root in Chen Hao's heart, but before he could start to worry, his head swam with dizziness from the rampaging Yang Energy, and he fainted.
It wasn't until the arrival of evening and the descent of night that Chen Hao woke up.
"Chen Hao, you're finally awake!" Before his vision cleared, Tang Chao's voice reached his ears.
"Tang Chao!" Chen Hao opened his eyes to look at Tang Chao. Immediately after, a heart-piercing chill flowed through his body, and before he had time to shiver, a wave of warmth surged toward his heart. After being tormented by this alternation of ice and fire for a while, Chen Hao finally found relief, though by now he was so tired he felt somewhat drained.
"Tang Chao, Yuqiao!" Chen Hao asked weakly. At this moment, he desperately needed to see Ye Yuqiao, to hold her delicate slender hand, and to smell the unique fragrance of her.
"Yuqiao, Xiao Feng, and your senior sister...," Tang Chao began but stopped short.
"What happened to them?"
"They..."
Suddenly, the earth shook violently!
"Ah!" Chen Hao was startled. "What happened?"
"They went to confront Wang Chuan!" Tang Chao's eyes were wide as he said, "This is the fourth earthquake already!"
...
Meanwhile, inside Jingwen Middle School.
The zombie-like Wang Chuan was standing in the middle of the soccer field. The entire stadium was filled with a powerful Power of the Five Elements, emanating from within Wang Chuan.
Up in the open stands, Ye Yuqiao, Man Qingting, and Xie Xiaofeng were watching Wang Chuan helplessly. Because as soon as they approached, the Five Elements Magic permeating the air would immediately generate fierce flames that burned them to ash.
"Roar!" Wang Chuan let out a roar that startled the entire Y City.
Suddenly, the ground shook violently.
After a bout of shaking, the ground around them began to heave and dip.
To be precise, the whole of Y City was heaving and dipping.
"Run!" Man Qingting, leading Xie Xiaofeng and Ye Yuqiao, escaped in an instant.
Before long, the night sky over Y City was engulfed by a blaze. Beneath the fiery sky, Y City had become a sea of flames.
Using his powerful Five Elements Magic, Wang Chuan had cast a spell that transformed the land in the center of Y City into a sea of fierce fire!
"Hahaha!" Wang Chuan laughed wildly to the heavens!
