He took out a bottle of premium nutrient solution from his backpack and drank it, feeling his parched body being continuously nourished.
After calming down and feeling that it was about time, Xunmi walked step by step toward Cheng Xinyao.
His eyes, however, were fixed on the bright and elusive girl, his face full of sarcasm.
"Is it fun to plot against someone from behind, Miss Cheng Xinyao?"
Xunmi stopped in his tracks, staring directly at Cheng Xinyao behind Xu Yi, making no attempt to conceal his murderous intent.
Although she didn't see who pushed her, she could figure it out by calculating the location.
Behind them were originally Ziqian and his group; after they left, it was Xu Yi who arrived.
She didn't really want to doubt her husband, who was her own person.
But since there was someone else here eyeing her husband, she couldn't help but be careful.
I just caught a glimpse of them, haha... They were hiding so obviously, what else is there to say?
Cheng Xinyao's face stiffened. How could this be? She hadn't given herself away at all.
Xu Yi and the others were also very surprised, but they did not step aside, believing that Xin Yao would never do such a thing.
"What, you don't believe me?" Xunmi looked around and nodded knowingly.
"That's true. To you, I'm a stranger, and I can forgive you for that."
"But I want her life. I won't hesitate to take any of your place."
Without wasting words, Xunmi bound Cheng Xinyao with vines and ruthlessly threw her into the group of immobilized zombies.
"Since you like zombies so much and take such good care of them, I will grant your wish and let you love each other."
"Ahhh, no, let me go, boss, boss, help!"
"Brother Xu Yi, Sang Yu, save me, save me! That crazy woman is trying to kill me."
Cheng Xinyao was suspended in mid-air, and she was so nervous that she couldn't control herself.
Clinging tightly to the swaying vines, afraid of falling.
Sang Yu didn't see Cheng Xinyao's actions, but faced with Cheng Xinyao's plea for help, she hesitated.
Because she saw the undisguised mockery and murderous intent in Ming Xunmi's eyes, and the way she looked at them was as if they were dead.
This sent a chill down her spine, and she also realized that they were just subordinates trained by their boss.
They can be discarded at any time; once they show the slightest dissatisfaction or disloyalty, they have no value left.
Xu Yi hesitated, thinking about what happened last night, and didn't know what to do for a moment.
Cheng Xinyao didn't care about the inner struggles of those below her, and roared.
"Brother Xu Yi, help me! You said you would help me last night."
"I didn't do anything. The boss was blinded by that vixen."
In short, not only was Cheng Xinyao completely doomed, but Xu Yi was also unable to escape.
"Oh, so you have helpers. That's good."
"She gave it to you." Xunmi pulled the vines in her hand away, freeing Cheng Xinyao from the air.
The landing point was right in the middle of the zombie horde, and the zombies, having received the search order, began to move.
They had long lost their reason; they only instinctively craved flesh and blood.
Now that fresh ones are being delivered, how could I let them go?
Although they would rather devour those sitting on the ground, they didn't have the guts and couldn't move.
"Ahhh, go away, go away, no, no."
"Please, please save me, I was wrong, I was wrong."
"Ahhh, Mingmei, how could you not save me? It was all your doing!"
"Ah..." The sound was drowned out by the constant chewing, and sharp nails scratched Cheng Xinyao's body.
Bit by bit, it was devoured by the surrounding zombies, leaving only a bloody skeleton.
Those forced to watch, especially those with poor mental fortitude, were already vomiting on the sidelines.
The few women present had long since turned deathly pale and had their eyes tightly shut.
Even some men were looking away, their hearts still pounding with fear.
With a wave of his hand, Xunmi caused the zombies to stop moving and become completely still.
"This is the consequence of betraying me. As for you, Mingye doesn't need to. Get out."
"Especially you." The vine lashed out at Xu Yi with a whip, its tone chilling.
"From the moment you chose to follow Mingye, you should have understood your place."
"Disobeying the master's orders and resorting to underhanded tricks behind his back—if it weren't for me today, but someone with less strength..."
"Mingye will be ruined by your selfishness. Do you know how much I want to kill you?"
"Get out, get out of here!" Xunmifa lashed out with the vines in his hands, causing minor injuries to several people.
Yet not a single person begged for mercy, nor did anyone voluntarily leave.
He lowered his head, as if reflecting on his mistakes.
Having vented her frustrations, she took a deep breath, straightened her clothes, and transformed back into the woman with the warm smile.
But those eyes, devoid of any warmth, told one that the woman from before would never return.
Ye Mingye's gaze kept searching for her, watching her forcefully control the zombies.
Watching her throw Cheng Xinyao in with murderous intent, watching her emotional breakdown.
He felt heartache, and even more heartache.
It's all his fault for being useless, which is why Mi'er was forced into this situation.
His clenched fist cracked and popped, doing nothing to calm his violent temper.
The wound on my back also began to itch and spread at this moment.
Ye Mingye could sense a destructive force surging around his body; had he not already reached level six, he would have been in danger.
They might get infected on the spot and lose their minds.
While he's still calm, let's do one last thing for Mi'er.
"Bring that woman to me," he said to Ling Chen.
Ling Chen had wanted to make a move for a long time, but Xun Mi hadn't said anything, and he didn't know what she meant.
Now that the boss has spoken, he has instantly released all his resentment and anger.
Having found an outlet for his frustrations, why should he continue to endure them?
"Hmph, how about that? Now you know fear? Go ahead and hide, hide."
Ling Chen's face was contorted with a ferocious smile as he relentlessly approached Mingmei, his tone sarcastic and mocking.
Mingmei was so frightened that she kept backing away, grabbing someone to shield herself.
"Get away from me! I'm a healing-type ability user, you can't treat me like this."
"The base won't let you get away with this, and the Ming family won't allow it either."
He was retreating too quickly and tripped over a stone behind him, falling hard on his bottom.
With wide, terrified eyes, he trembled as he made a show of bravado.
She can't die. She's not with Brother Ye yet, and she hasn't killed Xunmi. How can she fail?
The Ming family members, who had been watching from the crowd, looked at each other in bewilderment.
When they came out, the head of the family instructed them to protect Mingmei, as she was very useful to the Ming family.
But given the current situation, should they grit their teeth and go for it?
Anyone with eyes could see that the Second Miss was blinded by rage and would absolutely not let Mingmei go.
