Chapter Index

    Li Shi: “……!!!” Good heavens, he defended against Luo Shuyou but didn’t defend against Xie YunChuan, did he?! I’m seriously losing it; these two lovebirds are bullying a zombie way too much.”

    Li Shi’s veins bulged, and his entire body’s bones creaked as he struggled for a long time. *Crack… crack…*, countless crows flew over his head, symbolizing his utterly speechless inner state…

    Xie YunChuan, if you had this kind of strength, why were you pretending to be a pushover? That look of facing a formidable enemy really showed off your acting skills.

    Only the ice surface remained without a single crack, and Li Shi really couldn’t even move a scrap of cloth in the wind now.

    Luo Shuyou tugged at Xie YunChuan’s sleeve and shook it, saying, “ChuanChuan, what are you doing? Quickly let him go; I was the one who hurt him first.”

    Xie YunChuan immediately turned to look tenderly at Luo Shuyou, saying in a warm voice, “YouYou, he was originally a zombie with ill intentions, mixed in among us. Your attack only revealed his true zombie nature. We should be thanking you; you don’t need to feel guilty about hurting him.”

    Gu Tangxi chimed in from the side, “That’s right, that’s right. There’s nothing to feel guilty about towards a zombie, YouYou. Don’t be fooled by his earlier sobbing and roaring. He’s just a cunning and gloomy zombie.”

    Gu Tangyue quickly agreed, “Yes, yes, yes, YouYou, don’t be deceived by him. Think about it. What is he? He’s a zombie! What do zombies do? Zombies eat people. He hid beside us to find an opportunity to eat us. We can’t let him go.”

    Gu Tangxi and Gu Tangyue subconsciously treated Luo Shuyou like a simple child, completely ignoring that he was already an adult with restored normal thinking.

    Only the trapped Li Shi thought: “……” Heh heh, who is more insidious than you guys? Especially Xie YunChuan. If you have the guts, don’t say to my face that you didn’t know I was a zombie! Ah!

    Luo Shuyou was slightly surprised, “What? Didn’t you know him before?”

    Didn’t Xie YunChuan and the others know that Li Shi was a zombie? Luo Shuyou didn’t remember anything about them knowing Li Shi before. He wanted Xie YunChuan to release Li Shi because he felt that Li Shi posed absolutely no threat, so there was no need to confine him. Besides, Li Shi was left to him by Luo WuShang, and Luo WuShang must have had his reasons for doing so. Luo Shuyou didn’t want to rashly kill Li Shi.

    After being frozen for half a day, Li Shi finally regained his freedom under Luo Shuyou’s persistent coaxing. Li Shi, having survived a great disaster, luckily thought: How fortunate to have narrowly escaped with my life again…!

    Hearing that Luo Shuyou wanted to repair his flesh, he timidly walked to a spot one meter away from Luo Shuyou under Xie YunChuan’s piercing gaze. He stepped out his right foot but then pulled it back and stood still. He couldn’t go any further, not just because of Xie YunChuan’s murderous gaze, but also because of Luo Shuyou’s subtle look of disgust and holding his breath, which forced him to retreat.

    Li Shi: “……” People really laugh out of exasperation when they’re speechless, and zombies do too. Now you know to be disgusted by him being dirty and smelly? Who was it that got rid of his nice human skin in the first place?

    Thinking that Luo Shuyou would be a little embarrassed, Li Shi promptly spoke up to seek his own benefit, cautiously negotiating, “Um… well… this time, can you make me a little better-looking?” At least so people wouldn’t always say he was gloomy. It was clearly Luo WuShang who had molded him into an unattractive form before; how could he be blamed? Li Shi didn’t believe that if he were to have a face similar to Xie YunChuan’s or Luo Shuyou’s, he could still come off as gloomy.

    At that time, even if he were crawling on the ground, people would immediately care if he was injured.

    Luo Shuyou, who was preparing to transmit his healing power, paused in mid-air and said euphemistically, “Uh…! It’s not like I can mold it however I want.” Luo Shuyou was just transmitting healing power to promote the temporary restoration of vitality of the necrotic cells on Li Shi’s body, thereby causing them to divide and proliferate to form a layer of flesh to envelop the inner zombie torso.

    Li Shi: “Isn’t this skin made by you? You can control the direction of growth, making them stretch and adhere in a better-looking way, can’t you?”

    Luo Shuyou retracted his hand and coughed twice, “Cough cough, this thing, it also depends on the bone structure. Although the flesh grows freely, the framework is there, so it’s not like Nuwa creating humans, where you can mold them however you want.” That’s why they say beauty in bone structure is true beauty.

    Li Shi understood this. After beating around the bush for so long, wasn’t he just saying that he was ugly to begin with, and no matter how much he molded it, he couldn’t make a flower out of it? Fine, he couldn’t beat them, and he didn’t dare to speak up. Let it be.

    Xie YunChuan gently grasped Luo Shuyou’s hand that was hanging by his side, and then glared at Li Shi, saying, “Take it or leave it. If you don’t want it, forget it!”

    Li Shi drooped his head and glanced at Luo Shuyou. Luo Shuyou raised his hand again, and a shimmering green light rushed out from his palm, enveloping Li Shi’s whole body. Before long, visibly fleshy textures and veins formed, revealing whiteness from the chest position, gradually spreading to the surroundings. In less than a minute, an entirely new body was completely revealed.

    Luo Shuyou created everything for him, completely and neatly. As early as when this zombie torso initially took on human form, Xie YunChuan had covered Luo Shuyou’s eyes. Looking at Li Shi standing there naked at this time, Xie YunChuan was glad that he had acted quickly enough to cover his eyes.

    Gu Tangxi and Gu Tangyue, curious about the blood-flesh regeneration ability, didn’t have a considerate person to shield their sight. They had been staring intently at the miraculous changes happening on Li Shi’s body. When they suddenly woke up and wanted to quickly turn their heads, they had seen everything they should and shouldn’t have seen.

    Gu Tangyue deeply felt that it was an eyesore, wishing she could immediately forget the scene that had just entered her mind. She had seen many naked men, on TV, at the swimming pool…, but this was truly the first time she had seen one so completely naked. Oh my, this wasn’t going to work, she was going to get a stye.

    Gu Tangyue repeatedly hypnotized herself in her heart, ‘He’s a zombie, he’s a zombie. What you’re seeing now is a corpse, it’s nothing to make a fuss about. Even if it moves, it’s just a reanimated corpse.’

    Gu Tangxi didn’t react as strongly. She saw it, so she saw it, but there wasn’t much to see, and she was a little disgusted by how ugly it was.

    Li Shi, as a zombie with a sense of shame, shouted out in a voice that had just recovered its vibration the moment the two girls turned their heads, “Throw me some clothes, hey!?”

    Gu Tangyue, with her back to Li Shi, had a thought, and a set of ordinary gray clothes and black pants floated down. Li Shi grabbed them and quickly put them on.

    Between publicly streaking and publicly putting on clothes, he decisively chose the latter. He had no choice; if he streaked, where would he find a set of clothes to put on?
