Zombie Sister Strategy

Lin Qiao found his reaction interesting. He seemed to think that she would turn him down. Otherwise, why was he surprised?

“In fact, you don’t need to be so strict to Teng. He knew what he was doing, and he meant good. The way you talked to him could easily hurt his feelings,” Wu Chengyue smilingly brought up what happened before dinner.

“Are you speaking for him? Or, do you think what he did could be encouraged?” said Lin Qiao.

She didn’t expect Wu Chengyue to be so nice to the boy. Perhaps, he just had a different view about education.

“No, he did wrong. But, I’m worried that being too strict with him might lead to the opposite of what we wish for. When it comes to children, we need to enlighten them with patience.” Seeing Lin Qiao raise her eyebrows, Wu Chengyue smiled and waved his hands.

“You’re nice. You go,” Lin Qiao gave him a cold glance. The man hadn’t learned how naughty the boy could be, had he? She decided to let the boy spend some time with him and see if he could have more patience for the boy.

Wu Chengyue looked at her smilingly, then stood up and put the chair back to where it came from as he said, “I’m gonna take a shower.”

Lin Qiao was a little confused. He didn’t need to tell her that, did he? But, she soon figured out why he told her that.

“So, you let the kids sleep next door because you want to sleep here?” Lin Qiao sat on the couch and folded her arms as she watched the man get into her bed in pajamas and cover himself with her quilt.

Wu Chengyue looked at her with a grin and said, “Don’t worry. I’m not gonna do anything tonight. I’m just going to sleep.”

“Go ahead,” Lin Qiao looked at him expressionlessly, “I don’t need to sleep anyway. I can lend you my bed for tonight.”

She did not plan to sleep indeed because she was a zombie and she didn’t need sleep. She fell asleep twice since she became a zombie, both times after she had sex with him. She fell asleep because she was too tired. That should be a special case though.

Wu Chengyue looked at her with curiosity and said, “You zombies don’t need to sleep, but you are always energetic. Oh, wait a second!” He thought for a moment, then abruptly got off the bed and walked out to next door. Soon, he returned with a bag in his hand containing a few zombie nuclei and energy nuclei.

“But you guys need to absorb energy to replenish yourself. I don’t know how helpful these can be for you.”

Lin Qiao glanced at the nuclei in the bag. All of them were at level six or seven.

Currently, these nuclei could be traded for tons of supplies. For superpower possessors, those could bring them to a new level. However, he gave them to her as if that was what he ought to do.

“Again?” It wasn’t the first time he gave her nuclei. Earlier, he offered her nuclei sometimes during the two months they were bound together. Back then, she never accepted his kindness.

“These are all I have. I think you’re breaking into level-eight soon. I don’t know if these are enough. You’re leaving the base for a mission, so it’ll be good for you if you can break into level-eight before leaving,” Wu Chengyue walked up to her, then raised a hand of hers and put the bag on it.

Lin Qiao blinked, not knowing how to argue with that.

He was right, as she did need to grow stronger at the moment. Power was the most reliable guarantee. She had run out of nuclei recently, having absorbed all nuclei she had. She was planning to do some hunting on her way to Sky Fire Base.

Also, she didn’t plan to miss out on Li Zhengye’s nucleus.

She glanced at the heavy bag on her hand, then nodded and said, “Alright, thank you!”

As she accepted the nuclei, Wu Chengyue sighed with relief, then smiled as he turned and lay back on the bed, “Take it as my rent.”

Lin Qiao looked at those nuclei, which were certainly too much for rent. This time, she did not feel any repulsion toward his kindness even though he said that those were all he had. A trace of warmth even flashed across her heart, which she felt strongly.

Lying on the bed, Wu Chengyue didn’t fall asleep immediately. Instead, he picked a book that he was interested in from the stack of books on Lin Qiao’s nightstand.

Meanwhile Lin Qiao sorted the files and put them in the file holder, then brought the nuclei that Wu Chengyue gave her into her space.

The energy contained in the plant nuclei was the purest and easiest to be absorbed. It would take her a long time to absorb those nuclei outside. In that way, she could not break into level-eight in just one night.

So, she decided to enter her space and absorb those nuclei at the bottom of the lake. Apart from that, she also needed to do it in a special way.

In the space, she created a screen near the lake with her dark mist, then took off her clothes and went into the water with those nuclei. Inside the lake, she released her will power and gathered all the energy in the lake before sinking to the bottom.

She hadn’t gone down into the lake for a while. At the bottom, she watched the green energy gather in the water and wrap her up. Her long hair spread in the water and drifted behind her body like floating grass.

At that moment, she gently brought the nuclei before her body, causing the green energy to instantly wrap them up. The nuclei surrounded her body half a meter away, glowing with different colored light in the dark green energy in the lake.

She reached out both hands and started to send the lake energy into her body. Meanwhile, she released a stream of black fire to connect all the nuclei. Interestingly, the dark fire didn’t die out in the water. On the contrary, it looked quite energetic. The energy in the lake seemed to be afraid of the energy in the netherworld fire. However, it didn’t escape, because it was under Lin Qiao’s control.

The dark fire connected all the nuclei, then started to quickly absorb the energies contained in them and send them into Lin Qiao’s body, to her nucleus that was located in her brain.

As the energy in the lake was gathered to the bottom by Lin Qiao, the lake no longer gave out a strong pressure. All the zombies in the space could feel it.

Mo Yan was standing by the edge of the balcony, observing the lake surface. Earlier on, Lin Qiao entered the space and all the zombies in the space sensed her presence. What was she doing at the lake bottom?

One hour later, the white fog at the edge of the space started moving backward. On top of the woods, the fog rose higher, exposing the higher parts of the trees.

Two hours later, the zombie girl in a white dress behind him gently pulled Mo Yan’s shirt, then pointed at the sky.

Mo Yan raised his head and found that the fog had risen high and a bright light was pouring down through the fog.

The dim space was instantly brightened.
