Apocalypse Gachapon

Chapter 237: Retreating perfectly fine

Lou Zhengxiao’s body was shaking.

He wasn’t afraid, but he was furious.

He watched as his three sons were killed. He tried to attack him, but it was easily blocked. Moreover, his attack made him much closer to that guy.

Who knew that the person who he wished he could consume his flesh and drink his blood was so quick? His body flashed, and he was beside him. Lou Zhengxiao, a little slower due to the pain of losing his son, was not careful, and now the guy had a gun held up to his head.

He looked at the guy whose body occasionally had water droplets sliding off of his body and noticed that he had at least three wounds, but due to his two-star evolved body, it stopped bleeding. The lake water cleaned the blood and revealed white injuries.

He was injured. He was attacked when he crossed the lake. He was still human, and he wasn’t a god.

“Release her.”

He ordered as coldly as when he killed one person every step.

“Wishful thinking!”

“You will die here today!”

Lou Xiaoling charged to Ye Zhongming’s side, but that figure turned behind her father and looked at her coldly.

“I won’t die here, but if you don’t release her, all of you will die.”

Ye Zhongming stuck the nature staff to the ground and opened the defensive energy barrier. He used one hand to take off the gem that had turned dim and placed another ice-blue gem. Instantly, enormous energy flowed from it, which caused them to retreat in terror.

“This…”

Many of the Lou Family evolved and were astonished. Although they didn’t know what that was, they knew Lou Family would be leveled to flat ground if this energy was used.

“Nature… Staff?”

Lou Zhengxiao’s eyes jumped. He recognized the thing that Soul Merchant had once sent out information for and had asked people to find. He didn’t expect it to land in this person’s hands.

“Good that you recognize it.” ye Zhongming held the gun with a stable grip. The other hand grabbed his shoulder, and this Lou Family head instantly felt like his body was controlled.

“Let her go, or you will die.”

Lou Zhengxiao sucked in a breath and tried to calm himself down. He said hoarsely, “I can’t deny that you are strong. Your Staff of Nature is strong, but we can risk our lives too and fight back. You know that I am not lying. Lou Family has many people, and your trump cards are all out, right? If you dare to kill me, maybe Lou Family will cease to exist, but you will die here too.”

Ye Zhongming was strong, and he charged in alone. But he used all the moves he could use. If Lou Family had gone all out, his hopes of survival today were low. Nature Staff’s Blue Snow Lotus was strong and could kill level three mutated lifeforms that were gathered together. Not to mention Lou Family, no one in this region could block that move.

But it had restrictions. It had a distance and a range. This meant that if Ye Zhongming couldn’t kill all of them at once, he would face their endless attacks.

The Lou Family warriors had used many bullets, which consumed much of his mental energy. Even if he had the energy barrier but how long could he last?

Moreover, he had to save Xia Bai.

So Lou Zhengxiao had an accurate judgment. If everyone went all out, both sides would suffer huge losses.

“You are right.” Ye Zhongming smiled, “But so what?”

So what?

Lou Zhengxiao, Lou Xiaoling, and the other Lou Family members were stunned.

Right, so what?

You said that if both sides went all out, it would be good for no one, but they didn’t say they wanted to go all out. He came to find someone and not to kill everyone. He didn’t want to; he came to ask for his woman!

Lou Zhengxiao’s face turned red from rage. He hadn’t felt so frustrated before. He looked at the corpses of his son and couldn’t take the sadness. He spat a mouthful of blood and felt pain in his neck before fainting.

Ye Zhongming held up Lou Zhengxiao’s body, “Release her.”

At this point, everyone focused on Lou Xiaoling. The other three young masters were dead; she was the only heir.

Tears appeared in her eyes, and she stared at Ye Zhongming, “Release her.”

A moment later, Xia Bai was carried up. When Ye Zhongming saw her, his eyes squinted.

“Release my dad, and you can go.”

Lou Xiaoling held her spear, and her tone was filled with hatred.

“No, let someone carry her and follow me. After we cross the lake, I will release him.”

Ye Zhongming shook his head. Xia Bai was in a bad state. If not for her resilience, she would have died long ago. Even if she could open her eyes, she was in a bad state. To bring such a person out of here was too difficult.

Moreover, someone dragged a cannon over. Although it looked old, like it was built many decades ago, it could be used since someone dragged it over. This cannon shot would definitely kill Ye Zhongming.

“You are shameless!”

Ye Zhongming smiled, “It is the apocalypse. Do you want to talk about morals? Even then…”

He pointed at Xia Bai, “You guys aren’t any better.”

“I am in a rush; either I kill your dad and kill my way out, or you agree to my conditions. Be quick.”

Lou Xiaoling had never been humiliated like that before. She stared at this guy and wanted to imprint that face into her soul. One day she would personally kill him.

“Follow what he said.”

A Lou Family warrior carried Xia Bai and followed Ye Zhongming, who was dragging Lou Zhengxiao. They left the hall and walked to the lake before boarding a ship. Under their gazes filled with hatred, they headed to the other side.

“I will kill you; I will kill you!” Seeing their enemy further away, Lou Xiaoling shouted like a mad person. She stabbed her spear into the lake water.

Ye Zhongming hid carefully behind Lou Zhengxiao and looked at the figure, slowly blurring out. He scoffed and then said, “I will wait.”

Behind him, the Ying City sunset showed its broken shadow.
