They began to talk at once.
Shao Ci flew into a panic. He hurriedly pulled at Yu Shao’s sleeve. “Isn’t he just a normal ability user? What is there to know?”
“Xiao Ci-gege, if you keep talking like this, I might just think you’re helping that person out.” Yu Shao was smiling, but his eyes weren’t warm in the slightest.
Shao Ci was scared into clamping his mouth shut. The other people talked over each other, trying to be the first one to speak, afraid that they would be killed as soon as they finished.
As it turned out, when Shao Ci had been whisked away, Yin Han hadn’t given up. He made use of his ability to turn the area upside down, but there still wasn’t a single trace. Later, he promised that as long as someone found Shao Ci, he would give them a huge sum of money as thanks.
Immediately, everyone in the surrounding bases were interested. The sum of money was one thing, but the most important thing was having a strong ability user like Yin Han owe them a favor. After that, the entire research institute was searched until it was practically empty, but there wasn’t even a shadow of Shao Ci.
These people had just come over to take a look. They hadn’t expected that they would meet Shao Ci and Yu Shao easily, and they didn’t know whether this was lucky or not either.
“So that’s how it is. Then you guys can leave.” As soon as Yu Shao finished speaking, the vines binding the group of people loosened. They immediately fled, disappearing without a trace.
Shao Ci didn’t dare to believe that Yu Shao would do as he said. This the biggest villain into the entire novel, okay? “You’re really letting them go just like that?”
Yu Shao said, “If Xiao Ci-gege doesn’t want to let them leave, I can grab them again too.”
“Nono, there’s no need.” Shao Ci shook his head hastily.
“The most important thing is that we can only draw Yin Han over by letting those people go,” Yu Shao said casually. “Otherwise those people would have been turned into fertilizer.”
Shao Ci was stunned. “Draw Yin Han over? Why?”
“Exactly.” Yu Shao nodded, drawing close to Shao Ci’s ear. He said, “Because I think he’s a big threat. As such, I have to kill him off. Could it be that Xiao Ci-gege can’t bear to?”
“No, it’s not like I can’t bear to…” Shao Ci did his best to hide his discomfort. He should believe Yin Han wouldn’t kick the bucket so easily with his protagonist halo. Maybe he would be too busy to come.
Yu Shao smiled and said, “This is what Xiao Ci-gege said, so I’ll remember it.”
“…QAQ” Why did Shao Ci feel like there was a hidden danger in his smile. He should leave this person soon, it was fine even if it was Chu Jin. In any case, it wasn’t as risky as getting bitten to death…
[As a reminder to the host, the system has a teleportation function that will immediately teleport the selected target. The price is just a requirement for the host to do an extra random task in the future.]

So why couldn’t it have said all of its capabilities from the beginning. Still, when he thought about it, this broken system didn’t have any worry-free functions.

Yu Shao was looking at the grove ahead of them. He narrowed his eyes slightly. “He really came quickly.”
In moments, the surrounding air turned cold. As sudden as a flash of lightning, an icicle erupted from the earth, but Yu Shao dodged it deftly.
Yin Han walked out of the trees. He looked as though he hadn’t rested well at all. The skin under his eyes had turned dark, and he was even more pale and wan. His eyes fixed on them coldly. “Give him back to me.”
“Oh? Are you talking about Xiao Ci-gege?” Yu Shao pulled Shao Ci into his embrace in a single movement, his gaze tinted with malice. He looked towards Yin Han, laughing delightedly. “I truly apologize. Xiao Ci-gege won’t leave with you. He’s mine. Right, Xiao Ci-gege?”
Didn’t this happen once already!
Shao Ci avoided Yin Han’s gaze, but under Yu Shao’s coercing he had no choice but to nod. “Yes… I’m yours.”
“I just need to kill you, and everything will be like it was before. It’s fine as long as Xiao Ci is okay.” Yin Han’s expression didn’t change. He let out a breath of relief when he saw Shao Ci.
Yu Shao raised an eyebrow. “You came by yourself, you’ve really got guts.”
Yin Han glanced at Yu Shao. He said calmly, “Aren’t you just a monster? I’m more than enough on my own.”
Shao Ci: “…!” He had to recognize Yin Han’s poisonous tongue, but the current him still wasn’t as strong as Yu Shao! Saying this was really dangerous!
Yin Han walked over slowly. With every step he took, the weeds under his feet turned into ice. When he reached them, pretty much everything around them was covered in ice.
“Oh my, how impressive.” Yu Shao hid behind Shao Ci, holding onto his shoulders. He looked towards Yin Han with narrowed eyes. “Xiao Ci-gege, I’m so scared.”
Shao Ci: “…” His words were so fake that he didn’t even know how to respond.
Yin Han raised his hand, and around fifteen icicles rose up from the ground and thrust fiercely at Yu Shao. Before they touched him, the icicles were suddenly tied up by black vines, and they couldn’t move forward anymore.
On the side, numerous vines attacked Yin Han. As soon as they touched his fingertips, they were completely frozen in an instant.
“My apologies. These icicles don’t seem to be able to hurt me.” Yu Shao shook his head. “But my vines can’t handle you either. It seems like a bother.”
Yin Han’s eyes were cold. A layer of ice frosted over the vines, as though they had been absorbed by the icicles. Countless ice thorns developed on the surface, rapidly flying towards Yu Shao. There were so many there was no way to dodge.
Just as the ice thorns were about to touch him—
“I’m about done playing.” Yu Shao’s expression turned cold.
Yin Han’s expression changed rapidly. He covered his chest, a trail of blood leaking from the corner of his mouth. He could feel there was something growing furiously in his body. “…What is this?”
“When the vines touched you just now, their seeds took the chance to enter your body,” Yu Shao explained, exhilarated. “The vines will germinate and grow in your body, using your ability as nourishment. Finally, when they’ve turned you into juice, they can grow straight out of your body… It’s so fun.”
Shao Ci: “!” Fuck, so cruel, and the vine seeds were simply impossible to guard against. As expected, someone who could become the villain boss wasn’t a normal person.
Yin Han said coldly, “Even if I die, I’ll kill you before I die…”
But in the next moment, even more blood gushed out of his mouth. His body wavered, and he was forced to condense an icicle to support himself. He looked incredibly sick.
“How sad, you don’t have the chance anymore.” Yu Shao smiled slightly. The black vines that had been frozen at his side broke through their restraints, stabbing fiercely at Yin Han.
Shao Ci: “!” Fuck, if they stabbed through him, Yin Han would definitely get his lunchbox!
As soon as he thought about how Yin Han would get his lunchbox and he would have to live with Yu Shao for a lifetime, Shao Ci gained an unknown strength and flung away Yu Shao’s hand, shoving Yin Han away and using his own body to block the numerous vines stiffly.
The vines stabbed through Shao Ci like knives, stirring slightly inside his body like a live animal and sucking furiously at his blood. If it was a normal person, they might have died in pain.
It was lucky that thanks to the system’s pain blocker, Shao Ci could only feel a tolerable amount of pain within its limits. Despite that, as the blood flowed out of his body, his face turned incredibly pale, and he looked as though he was in horrible pain.
“Xiao Ci?!” Yin Han’s expression changed. He supported Shao Ci. Though his face maintained its calm, his eyes were full of panic.
“I…” Before Shao Ci could finish his sentence, he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. Most of it splashed onto Yin Han. “Cough cough cough cough… I-I’m sorry… I got your clothes dirty…”
“This isn’t the time to be talking about clothes.” Yin Han hugged Shao Ci fiercely. He said, “Wait for me to kill this monster and take you back… You have a healing ability, you’ll definitely be fine.”
“Let… let me look at your injuries first…” Shao Ci closed his eyes, focusing his ability at Yin Han.
The vine’s seeds were growing quickly, but under the attack of his ability, the new buds quickly withered. Still, just as there was only one seed left and it looked like it was about to be completely annihilated, it followed Shao Ci’s ability and jumped directly into his body.
Shao Ci spat out another mouthful of blood at the attack. “???” Hey, wait a second, he had turned into the person in the midst of a horrifying crisis… Why was he so unlucky.
“What do you still want to reminisce about?” Yu Shao’s aggrieved voice sounded. “You already said that you would stay by myself… In the end, as soon as you met someone else, you forgot me. How could this be?” When he finished his sentence, his voice had turned from saccharine sweet into ice.
“You monster.” Yin Han looked over, his eyes cold. Because of the parasitic vine seeds from earlier, he felt as though his body was about to disintegrate as soon as he used his ability, but he attacked as though there was nothing wrong with him.
But Shao Ci was very clear that if Yin Han continued like this he was simply sending his head away on a platter! With his current strength, there was no way he could fight with Yu Shao.
“Wait.” Shao Ci grabbed Yin Han’s hand, finishing the rest of his sentence. “Go quickly… Nothing… will happen to me… Hurry up and leave, and…”
And you definitely have to come back to rescue me! He couldn’t sacrifice so much for nothing!
When he finished speaking, Shao Ci went straight to activate the system’s teleportation function, pushing Yin Han aside fiercely.
Yin Han didn’t expect that Shao Ci would push him. He tried to grab Shao Ci, but he as caught off guard and his vision went black.
As the system beeped, Yin Han’s figure disappeared.
“I heard everything that Xiao Ci-gege said just now. I’m so sad. It turns out you wanted to leave my side so badly, you even did so much for someone else. I’m shocked.” Yu Shao’s expression was cold and terrifying. His hand slid down Shao Ci’s back, lightly touching the vine stabbing into his body. He yanked it down, and Shao Ci’s body trembled.
“It hurts a lot, doesn’t it? This is the punishment for bad children. If I get angry, some bad things will happen.”
It was already really scary, if Yu Shao did any other bad things then he might be scared to death!
Shao Ci thought about how he had already saved Yin Han anyway, and he didn’t know what Yu Shao was going to do. He immediately said, his voice full of despair, “…Just let me die like this then.”
Immediately, the vines deep in Shao Ci’s body were pulled out stiffly. It hurt more than before (although the system block had already subtracted eighty or ninety percent of the pain), but as long as Shao Ci imagined what was happening in his body, he hurt so much he could die. Tears welled out of his eyes.
“You can’t talk like this.” Yu Shao’s voice was cold. He lowered his head, gently kissing away the tears on Shao Ci’s face, his tone turning soothing. “Xiao Ci-gege, you promised to stay by my side. Even if you die… don’t think you’ll be free.”
Shao Ci suddenly remembered that Yu Shao was the zombie king! He could really do as he said, as long as Yu Shao turned him into a zombie!
…No, he didn’t want this to happen!
The author has something to say:
Although it’s the battle scene, Yin Han’s strength isn’t enough, he still has to keep working hard →_→
I worked until three thirty writing this, I feel like I wrote until my brain wasn’t clear…
Nooooo!! Yin Han needs to level up. Didn’t he say he was close to leveling but didn’t do it in order to not hurt anyone? Hurry up, ba!
Thanks for the chapter ❤❤

Thanks for the chapter! 😘

“Even if your die… don’t think you’ll be free.”
That’s a flag. That is definitely a flag.

YIN HAN!!!!! LEVEL UP~, LEVEL UP~, LEVEL UP~, LEVEL UP~, LEVEL UP~ by beyoncé 😗
Thank you for the Chapter Yan.Yan 🐱🐾🌈
What? Am I the only one rooting for the zombie kid?
I don’t know which side I’m in anymore TT
First time I’m actually confused on who is the actual ML… esp if it is going to be 1 v 1 @-@
So, I think that if ever Shao Ci chose someone, one will completely blacken, and the other will probably still blacken
AHH I’ve changed my mind!! Yin Han is way better for Shao Ci (aside from his threats of breaking his arms and stuff) compared to this Zombie King Brat! Please hurry up and save your man Yin Han TwT
Why do i feel like my profile picture and name is inappropriate for this setting!? As in- itd be the complete opposite. The devil is making his lover cry instead…..
Shao Ci is a yandere maker, lol😂🤣🤣😂😂
YU SHAO TAKE ME 😭
Nice! 👍
Author, you’re so cruel QAQ
