Wu Chengyue immediately turned to Xiao Licheng, who had already stepped away from him.

The latter could still hear him talking. He only stepped away to create a safe distance between himself and the angry zombie lady.

As Wu Chengyue gave him a glance and started a serious conversation, Xiao Licheng immediately stepped back and said, “The purge that is happening in Huaxia Base is working well. Most of our sources have been cleared out. Now, we need to get information from Huaxia people, which will take a longer time. So now, we’re a little uninformed about the military side of Huaxia Base.”

He was basically saying that Sea City Base no longer knew everything about Huaxia Base.

Wu Chengyue turned back to Lin Qiao and couldn’t help but ask, “So, what have you found?”

Lin Qiao had a different source of information than he did. The ones that Xie Dong sent out to collect information were all zombies, who stayed near Huaxia Base and Sky Fire Base. They were sensitive to the scent of human beings, so they followed every single person from Huaxia Base to find out about what had they been doing.

It always took some time for Lin Qiao to receive the messages, but what she received was all accurate.

After learning about Huaxia Base’s recent movements, she immediately sent out a squad to find Lin Wenwen and the others, and also to invite Lin Wenwen—Teng’s aunt—to Teng’s one-month-old party.

Back then, she had no idea if Lin Wenwen and the others had run into those Huaxia Base people. But now, she figured that they had.

Wu Chengyue knitted his brows and said, “I guess Huaxia People have heard about Kong Qingming’s mission.”

He thought Huaxia Base people weren’t taking any action, but unexpectedly, they had already made moves against his people, who weren’t in the base. He had already fallen into a disadvantage.

At that moment, Lin Wenwen, Long Qingying, Kong Qingming, and the others had been chased by the enemies. Unfortunately, they were all separated.

Seven days ago, the enemies had set their eyes on them. By the time they realized it, the enemies were already very close. The enemies were strong, armed to the teeth, and led by two level-six superpowered men.

Kong Qingming was the only level-six one on Lin Wenwen’s side. All the others were at level five or below. Thankfully, Lin Kui didn’t take away Mo and Ye Qingxian, the zombie queen and king.

Otherwise, they might have all been captured or killed by the enemies already.

Under the strong protection of Mo, Ye Qingxian, and Kong Qingming, Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying helped Leng Xuantong, who was only at level-four, to run. On the way, Long Qingying was injured when trying to protect Lin Wenwen and Leng Xuantong. Thankfully, Kong Qingming rescued her timely. Mo and Ye Qingxian arrived not long after that and created an opportunity for them to run.

In order to distract the enemies, Kong Qingming and Long Qingying were separated from the rest of the group at last.

At the moment, they were hiding in an underground storage room. Kong Qingming was dressing Long Qingying’s wounds, with a flashlight held in his mouth. Long Qingying was unconscious, with gunshot wounds visible on her chest and thighs. Under the flashlight, the clothes on her chest were visibly soaked in blood.

Kong Qingming undone the buttons of her coat, then tore apart her T-shirt and exposed the wound on her chest. There was a distance between the bullet and her heart. Seeing that, Kong Qingming finally relieved a little, and his thumping heart was eased slightly.

He quickly pulled out a dagger and burned it in the fire, then gently cut upon the bullet hole on her chest before digging out the bullet.

Clang! The bullet fell on the ground and blood gushed out of the wound. Because of the pain, Long Qingying’s body was tightened slightly. She was still unconscious, yet her brows were knitted automatically.

Kong Qingming immediately threw away the dagger and spread the styptic powder on her wound, then pressed some gauze against it.

He took the flashlight out of his mouth and put it aside, then took out a test tube full of transparent liquid drug. He unplugged the test tube with his teeth and poured the drug into his own mouth, Thenm he squeezed Long Qingying’s chin with a hand and dropped his head to press his lips against hers, pouring the drug into her mouth.

He found the drug from Long Qingying’s pocket. Earlier on, she told him that it could cure wounds.

He didn’t have enough gauze, so he shredded his coat to wrap Long Qingying’s wounded chest, then dug out the bullet in her thigh.

“Eh…” This time, the pain woke Long Qingying up. She gave a muffled moan and gasped heavily for air. Only after that did she slowly open her eyes, instinctively looking around to observe the surrounding environment.

It was all dark and quiet. The quietness meant that she was safe, for the time being at least. Soon she sensed a familiar vibe nearby, and her mind slowly became clear.

“Where… are we?” She asked with a weak voice. Except for the weakness, her voice sounded good, because she had had some water earlier.

“An underground storage… Shh, don’t speak! Save some strength,” Kong Qingming, who was dressing the wound on her thigh, was glad to see her wake up as he looked at her and answered her question.

Long Qingying saw what he was doing. She raised a hand to touch her own chest and found that the bullet had already been dug out, and her wound was taken care of.

“Thank you!” She said expressionlessly.

Kong Qingming tied the cloth shreds into a knot, then picked up the flashlight and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. Then, he held her and made her lie in his arms with a comfortable gesture.

“Don’t thank me, I’m saving myself,” he said.

Long Qingying didn’t understand it. She was injured and disabled from fighting. She couldn’t even move anymore. Currently, she was nothing but a burden to him. Clearly, that was not a good thing. However, he told her that he was saving himself.

Why?

She stayed silent for two seconds, then couldn’t help but ask, “Why?”

Kong Qingming wore a gentle smile on his slightly dirty but still pretty face, “What would happen to me if you died? How would I be able to keep living?”

He let out that touching phrase without thinking under those unfavorable circumstances.

Long Qingying didn’t know how to respond to that. She clearly sensed the strong affection that he had when he said those words.

Ever since what happened last time, the man had been following her everywhere; his eyes were always on her. At first, she found him so annoying and tried to avoid him, on purpose or not. She couldn’t have thought that she would be injured and saved by him.

She dropped her head and didn’t say anything, her back sensing his strong heartbeat.

“It’s okay. I’m here. I won’t let you die,” Kong Qingming laid his pretty eyes on her, a little obsessively. Then, he put his arms around her waist and said with a gentle and soft voice.
