"Where are we going to find Jiamin?"
Yan Zisu, who was walking on the road, was a little confused. She looked at the road she had walked countless times in this peaceful era. Now, it was charred black.
A strange feeling enveloped her heart, as if she was not from this world. Coupled with the unfamiliar Li Jiayu and Zhang Rui, this feeling was even more intense.
Looking at her youngest uncle's face that was even more exquisite than hers and Zhang Rui's blurry figure, Yan Zisu felt like she was dreaming. She was having an absurd dream.
"Sister-in-law, let's go to the south of the city to look for him. Brother's company is there. He can't be far away.”
Li Jiayu stared at Yan Zisu with her reddened eyes. In the end, she could not bear to tell her the truth. She did not dare to let this woman show a painful expression anymore. If she did, she would be in pain too.
This woman had already suffered enough in her previous life. Didn't she come back to let her live a better life in this life?
"Chengnan? That's not far. Let's go."
After hearing Li Jiayu's words, Yan Zisu headed south energetically. She couldn't wait to see her husband.
Li Jiayu's eyes turned red when she saw Tang Sao's cheerful footsteps.
This was a complete tragedy. The more Yan Zisu looked forward to it, the more painful it was for her to know the truth.
……
Roar!
It had been three days, and the eggs left behind by those bugs had already hatched. Coupled with the monsters from the Abyss World brought by the Gate Between Worlds, the world had returned to how it was at the beginning.
Xijiang City, which was blessed by the gods, had returned to the era of demons. The bold people had already stocked up on supplies in the few days after the insects disappeared, while the timid people shrank in their houses and waited for rescue. They did not dare to step out of their rooms at all.
The current world was a cannibalistic one. The strong devoured the weak. Those who cowered at home were undoubtedly at the bottom of the food chain.
"Die!"
Li Jiayu, who had cut open a red-crowned beetle with one slash, looked at the smooth cut and felt a wave of sadness.
She was a Summoner, a Summoner who used her staff to crush her enemies with her summoned beasts, but now she was using her sword to fight the Zerg.
However, no matter how sad she was, she didn't have the time to care anymore because there were five big words written on the building in front of her-Langya Nightclub.
Last night, Zhang Rui mentioned his brother's burial place.
The closer they got to the nightclub, the darker Li Jiayu's expression became, and the stronger the killing intent emitted from her body.
Yan Zisu was no fool. Looking at Li Jiayu's expression, she knew that something had happened. As for what it was, she had some guesses, but she did not dare to think about it.
ahwooh ~
What appeared in front of Li Jiayu was a demonic wolf. No, it was a pack of demonic wolves. This entire pack of demonic wolves surrounded the entire nightclub.
What was worse was that Li Jiayu could feel her brother's soul aura emanating from the mouths of the demonic wolves.
This discovery made Li Jiayu somewhat incredulous. She couldn't believe that her elder brother had died in the mouths of these beasts, not even leaving behind a corpse.
Yesterday, when she heard Zhang Rui say that her brother had died, she thought that he had been killed. At least there would be a corpse left behind. After all, those bugs had been killed by Na Si.
However, for some reason, this group of animals had managed to avoid Na Si's massacre and resisted the temptation of Zhang Rui's blood. They surrounded the place.
"Boss, Boss Jiang, I've worked for you for five years. Even if I don't have any credit, I've worked hard, Boss Jiang!”
At this moment, a cry came from the second floor. Then, a middle-aged man was pushed out by a few people and retreated downstairs.
After that middle-aged man was pushed down the stairs, the pack of demon wolves swarmed up. After a short while, the middle-aged man's bones had been chewed and swallowed by the demon wolves.
This bloody scene made Yan Zisu's face turn pale. She had never thought that there would be such a person in this world. Compared to those people, these demon wolves were as obedient as little white rabbits.
However, Yan Zisu looked at Li Jiayu's expression and then at the pack of demonic wolves whose blood had already dried up at the corner of their mouths. The ominous feeling in her heart was magnified to the extreme.
"Jiayu, I want to see your brother now. Can you do it?”
Li Jiayu nodded silently when she saw the fear in her cousin's eyes. Then, she summoned Gou Dan, picked up the Ice Wheel Pill, and rushed forward.
Yan Zisu's tears fell as she watched Li Jiayu charge at the demonic wolves. She knew that the outcome she feared the most had appeared.
"You already knew, didn't you?"
Yan Zisu, who was crying her eyes out, questioned Zhang Rui.
Zhang Rui looked at her pained expression and nodded. After realizing that she couldn't see him nodding, he said,"
"Yes, I know."
"Then why didn't you tell me?"
After hearing Zhang Rui's words, Yan Zisu cried even harder. From Li Jiayu's expression, she must have known about it long ago. She was the only one who did not know about her husband's death.
"…I was afraid that you would be sad."
After a moment of silence, Zhang Rui finally spoke. To be honest, he had to admit that he was panicking when faced with Yan Zisu's question. As a god, he was panicking because of Yan Zisu's question.
"You're afraid that I'll be sad? Don't tell me I'm not sad now?”
Yan Zisu was tired from crying. She hugged her legs and sat on the ground. She did not think about anything else right now. She only hoped that after her husband's bones were found, she would be able to go with him.
"Sigh."
Looking at Yan Zisu's grief-stricken face, Zhang Rui sighed and handed the Book of the Past to her.
"What is this?"
Yan Zisu, who was still sobbing, asked as she looked at the black book that Zhang Rui handed to her.
She had seen this book before. Ever since she met Zhang Rui, he had been holding this book.
"A book that records the past, one of the origins of this world.”
When Yan Zisu heard this, the black book in her hand almost fell to the ground. To be honest, this was the first time she had heard of something so high-class.
Then, with Zhang Ru's encouragement, she opened the book.
"This is…"
The more she looked, the wider her eyes widened.
" Li Jiayu's heart is already riddled with holes. Right now, she lives for you. You, Xiao Wanqing, Han Xiaoran, Li Banyue, Li Jiamin, her father, Li Donglin, and Ran Hongxia. The few of you have formed her small world, a small world that she can use to lick her wounds.”
"Now that Li Jiamin is already dead, if you die with him, how many people will be left in Li Jiayu's small world?”
Zhang Rui's words stunned Yan Zisu like a great bell. No, it should be said that what really shocked her were the words in the book.
Hunted, killed, injured, sleeping in a coffin, and living with zombies. The words revealed the cruelty of this world towards Li Jiayu.
To be honest, she could not bear to let Yan Zisu leave Li Jiayu and leave with Li Jiamin. It was hard to imagine how many scars Li Jiayu had hidden under her exquisite appearance.
