TSIAGBICATMWI Chapter 203

Chapter 203: Opposition

“What’s going on?” Xu Yuze asked.

Luo Shuyou was currently advancing step by step, while the energy defense wall formed by the combined power of the Su family was retreating step by step.

“He’s coming in.”

Su Nanzhi stood tall and graceful, her expression unchanged, but Xu Yuze could see the tense defensive posture beneath her seemingly calm demeanor.

“Nonsense, even someone blind could see that, did we need you to point it out?” Ning Linjie of the Ning family, who had arrived late, said in an annoyed tone.

The Ning family was always accustomed to being domineering and rude, but fortunately, they were clear-headed about this matter of shared fate. Su Nanzhi didn’t want to argue with him, “Wait a little longer.”

Ning Linjie anxiously said, “Wait for what? You should at least tell us what’s going on so we have some idea of what to expect! The energy defense wall won’t hold for long, give us a heads-up!”

“He’s here,” Xu Yuze reminded in a low voice.

A person flew onto the wall – Qi Ji of the Qi family.

Ning Linjie grumbled, “You’re always the last one, can’t you try harder to catch up? I’m not asking you to surpass us, just keep pace…! Useless!”

Qi Ji didn’t hold back, retorting righteously, “If I’m useless, why are you waiting for me? If you’re so capable, go up there yourselves! It’s not like I forced you to wait. I doubt missing one useless person would affect your great plans, right?”

Ning Linjie was furious, “You…!”

“Alright, say less!” Su Nanzhi interrupted Ning Linjie, “Didn’t you want me to explain the situation? The situation is what you see. Right now, what I know is the same as what you know.”

Ning Linjie coldly snorted, “Isn’t that the same as saying nothing?”

Su Nanzhi glanced at Gu Tangyue and Gu Tangxi, who had followed behind Xu Yuze, and said meaningfully, “But you can ask Xu Yuze and his two subordinates. I think they know more than we do.”

The Gu sisters, who had been singled out, were already speechless with shock at the familiar yet strange “Luo Shuyou” before them, and neither of them had the energy to pay attention to Su Nanzhi’s words.

Gu Tangyue’s eyes darkened, and her left hand, curled up in her sleeve, clenched into a fist. “Sister, what do we do? This day has come after all.”

“I don’t know,” Gu Tangxi comforted, “Maybe the situation isn’t that bad yet. At least he recognizes Xie YunChuan and hasn’t hurt him.”

Gu Tangyue said, “Haven’t some zombies regained human consciousness? Why is Shuyou still like this?”

Gu Tangxi was relatively calm, “Only a very small number have regained consciousness, and even then, they’ve only regained some human cognition, but not ‘humanity’. Besides… Shuyou’s situation is special and can’t be judged by ordinary standards.”

The scene before her reddened Gu Tangyue’s eyes, “I thought he was the luckiest one.”

Gu Tangxi patted Gu Tangyue’s shoulder, “The luckiest are those of us who are still alive and have some ability to protect ourselves. Their only luck might be meeting each other.”

“So those are your old acquaintances?” Ning Linjie realized after hearing their whispers, “Quickly tell us in detail what that monster is.”

“He’s not a monster, why are you talking like that?” Gu Tangyue immediately rebuked.

Ning Linjie didn’t care about a weakling’s attempt to stand up for their ‘friend’. He narrowed his eyes and smiled contemptuously, “Heh! How am I talking? You should think about who you’re talking to. What, am I wrong? If I can’t call it a monster, what should I call it? A zombie? An infected? A mutated being? I can’t very well open my eyes and call something with fangs, claws, and bloodshot eyes a human, can I? Hmm?”

“You…!!”

Gu Tangxi’s forward movement was blocked, and the words she was about to say were stopped by a look from Xu Yuze.

Xu Yuze stood in front of Gu Tangxi. Unlike Gu Tangxi and the others, he could see even the slightest movements of Ning Linjie. This was a ruthless and brutal person, and there was no need for Gu Tangxi and the others to anger him over such a small matter.

Xu Yuze simply reminded Ning Linjie, “Ning Linjie, watch your mouth. The monster you speak of is pushing towards you step by step, braving the energy wall of hundreds of ability users. Do you think he’ll recognize your voice?”

Ning Linjie’s body stiffened. He said a few words to save face, but no one cared about this bully who was afraid of the strong and preyed on the weak.

Experts from various families gathered here one after another, but Su Nanzhi saw an unexpected figure among the arrivals.

“Aunt!” Su Nanzhi exclaimed to the people walking towards them.

Then, Xu Yuze and Qi Ji nodded to the leader as a greeting: “Dr. Su.”

Su Nanzhi walked past the slow-reacting Ning Linjie towards Su Qingya, “Aunt, why did you come here? It’s dangerous here.”

Su Nanzhi stood beside Su Qingya, acting as a protective barrier on the outside, and coldly glared at the level seven ability user protecting Su Qingya behind her.

Su Qingya walked to the top of the wall, “An invitation from an old friend, I should come and see.”

The figure outside the city stopped after seeing Su Qingya peeking out. He just stood there quietly, and no matter how hard the ability users tried, they couldn’t push him back even a fraction.

At this moment, they finally realized that he was moving slowly not because he was blocked by them, but because he was slowly approaching with ease.

Su Nanzhi stayed close to Su Qingya, not leaving her side. “Aunt, we’ve investigated, YunChuan he… his breath is weak… almost non-existent…” She paused, lowering her head in shame, but still said the words, “We… shouldn’t have risked it!”

“Either open the door and welcome me in, or I will level Li City to get in.”

“Dr. Su, are you really giving up on your son?”

“If he dies, then Li City, which you have painstakingly protected, will no longer need to exist.”

Luo Wushang’s emotionless words clearly entered Su Qingya’s mind. Su Qingya’s face remained unchanged, and she calmly said to Su Nanzhi, “Let them in.”

“Aunt!” A rare layer of anxiety covered Su Nanzhi’s usually cold face, “If we were outside the city, the multiple barriers we’ve set up might be able to stop him for a while. If we just let him into the city like this, then…”
