My Silly, Sweet Wife

Chapter 1265

"Roar!"

Seemingly very dissatisfied with being disturbed during his meal, the person roared and fiercely lunged at Ye Guichen.

Ye Guichen acted, directly piercing the opponent's head with the spear.

The opponent's movements came to an abrupt stop, suspended in mid-air by the Green Nightmare Spear.

Ye Guichen threw the corpse aside, observing it carefully for a while, discovering that this Qin soldier had long been dead, and judging by the time of death, it should have been last night.

Recalling the situation that happened in the Qin Camp, cold sweat broke out on Ye Guichen's back.

"No way? Could there really be zombies, or is there something that can turn people into zombies?"

Ye Guichen didn't have time to think more, quickly turning back to lead Nolan Qingqing and the two little wolves swiftly down Three Harmonies Valley.

Just after Ye Guichen left not long, another person slowly stood up from the grass.

Apart from his pale face like paper, he had no other anomalies.

"Hehe, Son of Nether Emperor? Alright, I'll have a good play with you!" This person was none other than the missing Zuo Lengqiu.

When Ye Guichen arrived at the Qin Camp again, seeing corpses everywhere and the stench emanating from them, he frowned.

All of these corpses, without exception, seemed to have been drained of blood.

Upon seeing the corpses, Nolan Qingqing immediately coughed up blood.

Seeing Ye Guichen's arrival, Bai Qi quickly greeted him: "Young Master, I've had people guard all these corpses without moving them, just waiting for you."

Ye Guichen nodded and asked, "Where's Senior Xuanyuan?"

Bai Qi replied, "He's in the tent."

"Let's go, take me to him." Ye Guichen followed Bai Qi to the tent.

This tent belonged to Zuo Lengqiu.

Xuanyuan Canghai was squatting next to the woman killed by Zuo Lengqiu, deep in thought.

"Senior Xuanyuan," Ye Guichen called out.

Xuanyuan Canghai lifted his head to glance at Ye Guichen: "Young Master, we might have trouble."

"What do you mean?" Ye Guichen stepped forward, looking down at the woman's corpse.

The woman was strangled to death by Zuo Lengqiu last night.

But now, the surface of her body was covered with some green veins.

Moreover, the woman's teeth and nails seemed to still be growing.

Overnight, two teeth in the woman's mouth had grown to a length of two centimeters.

And her nails grew long and thick, surpassing any beast.

A dead person, actually growing nails?

Ye Guichen had a feeling of impending doom.

Xuanyuan Canghai pointed to the woman's corpse, explaining, "Young Master, the land under the Seven Kings isn't much different from the secular world, even very interconnected. But past the Three Harmonies Valley, there are many sects, and the further north you go, the stronger they become. Many years ago, when I still followed the Netherworld Emperor, I heard him mention a powerful sect."

"This sect acts very secretively, but their cultivation technique is said to be very sinister, capable of resurrecting the dead. However, this resurrection isn't in the true sense but transforming them into another form of existence."

"This sect must absorb the blood of living beings to cultivate, the more absorbed, the faster they cultivate and the higher their cultivation base."

"Even before the chaos of the Seven Kings, the Netherworld Emperor expressed a concern, saying he had strange dreams for several consecutive days, where people were slaughtered. The purpose was for cultivation."

"At that time, I comforted the Netherworld Emperor, saying he was over-worried, but unexpectedly, it wasn't long before the Seven Kings caused chaos, with millions dead."

"Now thinking back, perhaps the Netherworld Emperor had premonitions, and the state of these people's deaths reminds me inexplicably of that time."

Upon hearing this, Ye Guichen narrated the scene of discovering a Qin soldier eating bloody raw pork.

After listening, Xuanyuan Canghai's face was instantly filled with horror: "Eating raw meat? Exactly, this scene is too similar to back then. When I was fleeing, I often saw some people able to kill beasts and eat raw meat. But at that time, I only focused on escaping and didn't think too much. Now reflecting, could it really be related to that terrifying sect?"

"If it's really like this, the chaos of the Seven Kings might have other hidden truths!"

Ye Guichen also considered this and agreed, "If it's really like this, the only way is to find King Qin and ask him for the real situation back then. But for now, we must first find a way to deal with the situation here in Three Harmonies Valley. If it's truly like Senior Xuanyuan said, we'll likely face attacks from zombie-like creatures regularly, by then, panic will ensue, and guarding here will be completely unsafe."

"You're right, the urgent task is to burn all these corpses, and if any living dead appear, they must be dealt with promptly, leaving no hazards behind." Xuanyuan Canghai nodded in agreement.

Just at this moment, the woman who was already dead suddenly sat up.

Before anyone could react, she bit Xuanyuan Canghai's neck.

Everyone was shocked.

Ye Guichen didn't have time to think further, directly using True Qi to condense a blade, slicing at the woman's neck.

The woman's neck detached from her body instantly.

However, her head still remained biting Xuanyuan Canghai's neck, squirming, seeming to suck blood.

As blood streamed into the woman's mouth, it flowed out with a gush from the severed neck.

Xuanyuan Canghai grasped the woman's head and tugged hard.

Only to hear a ripping sound.

A piece of skin came off Xuanyuan Canghai's neck, blood vessels bursting.

Ye Guichen quickly took out a Hemostatic Pill, gently crushed it, rapidly applying it to Xuanyuan Canghai's neck.

Xuanyuan Canghai's face turned pale, looking at the still squirming woman's mouth, he stomped it fiercely into pulp, then collapsed to the ground.

"Senior Xuanyuan, are you alright?" Seeing Xuanyuan Canghai seemed off, Ye Guichen hurriedly supported him as he asked.

Xuanyuan Canghai raised his head: "Young Master, I fear I am dying, if these living dead truly have ties to that mysterious sect, I fear I will also turn into a living dead, by then, you must kill me. I do not want to become a living dead!"

Ye Guichen shook his head vigorously: "Senior Xuanyuan, you haven't avenged with me yet, you can't die, don't worry, you'll be alright."

As he spoke, Ye Guichen directly instructed Bai Qi: "Quickly, burn all those corpses outside, leave none."

Bai Qi opened his mouth, taking a deep look at Xuanyuan Canghai, then quickly turned and left.

Yet at this moment, a sudden scream erupted from outside.

Followed by someone urgently yelling: "It's bad, the dead have come back to life!"
