Lin Jie winced in pain, but he didn’t hesitate to open his mouth and bite towards Tang Ye. The two of them, like madn, crazily tore at each other. In a short ti, flesh and blood fell from their bodies, covering the ground. However, as the fight went on, it was Lin Jie who was at a disadvantage. In just a mont, he couldn’t bear it anymore. For so reason, Tang Ye’s teeth had beco like that, the triangular shark teeth greatly outperforming the biting efficiency of his normal human teeth.
As they mauled each other, gaping wounds covered Lin Jie’s body, blood streaming everywhere. In contrast, Tang Ye’s face showed not a hint of pain; rather, he seed to be enjoying himself, and his own flesh appeared untouched, as if he had not received a single wound.
He imdiately understood that if things continued this way, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold on. So, he quickly controlled his tentacles and launched an attack toward Yang Ye. But soon, one of Tang Ye’s flesh flaps rapidly extended forward, striking right into his abdon. The imnse force sent him flying backward.
As a pile of equipnt was knocked aside, Lin Jie looked up to see Li Qingtian hiding not far away. Their eyes t. Lin Jie’s gaze flickered, and he imdiately got up and ran towards Li Qingtian.
Seeing Lin Jie running towards Li Qingtian, Tang Ye imdiately realized what this guy was planning to do. Then Tang Ye beca frantic too, his flesh flaps whipping toward Lin Jie with a whoosh!
In the final mont, one of the flesh flaps pierced Lin Jie’s waist, a gush of fresh blood spurting out. Lin Jie coughed up a mouthful of dark red blood, but luckily for him, in his panic, Tang Ye had not hit a vital spot. Enduring the intense pain from his body, Lin Jie managed to put so distance between himself and Li Qingtian.
A ferocious smile slowly appeared on his face!
As Tang Ye charged toward him, Lin Jie reached out and yanked Li Qingtian’s hand towards him, binding her in front of him. A sharp tentacle tip at his back pointed to Li Qingtian’s neck, as he let out a taunting laugh.
"Hahaha, co on then? Kill ? Let’s see whether you’re faster, or if I can kill your relative quicker!"
Tang Ye stopped abruptly. Both being Level 7 New Humans, their reaction speeds were extraordinary. He truly believed that if he charged forward, the other could kill Li Qingtian four or five tis!
He dared not move and glared at Lin Jie, roaring, "Let her go!"
"Hehehahaha, what’s this? Hesitating? Since you cannot bear to see her die, then step back! Back off!"
While pointing a tentacle at Tang Ye, Lin Jie forced Tang Ye to retreat step by step.
"Back further, a hundred ters from . Dare to take one step forward, and I’ll kill her! Don’t harbor any illusions; I can kill her with this hand. At worst, I, dragging your lovely sister, will die together with her! Hahahaha!"
"Li Henian, do you know there’s a pain worse than death, and that’s to continue living. Do you know what I’m talking about? I’ve seen so many, those who would rather die than live, but why don’t they die? Because... because of what? Exactly! It’s because of their relatives; they can’t afford to live, but even less to die. They have too many people standing behind them. But then, one day, the very people they strive for suddenly die. Guess what they would do?"
"Do you know that kind of guilt? Do you? That kind of pain... that tornt, do you understand? If you don’t want to experience that, then obediently do as I say and step back... right~ keep stepping back~"
"Oh no no no, I shouldn’t say it like that. Li Henian, you are the Marshal of the United District, the king there! What are you doing? You’re actually listening to , aren’t you ridiculous? Hahahahaha, it’s killing . Can’t you see that I’m actually saving you? You’re the Marshal of the United District, ruler over the entire South China! You’re recognized as a strongman by the world; you should understand that a strongman should have no weakness. Having a weakness is terrifying!"
"Everyone may have this weakness, but as long as it disappears, if he doesn’t want it, it will never show up! I’m eliminating your weakness; you should realize I’m doing you a favor. Co on, step forward! Hahahaha... dare to co up and I’ll kill her! Hehehehe~"
Tang Ye remained silent, not saying a word, but the fierce hate in his eyes was almost tangible, as if it could transform into swords to stab Lin Jie with a thousand holes!
He watched Lin Jie laughing madly, his expression so deranged it lost all semblance of humanity. Suddenly, at that mont, Lin Jie took a step forward, and Tang Ye hastily moved back.
He didn’t dare to gamble with such a madman, he believed that the other party was capable of doing anything.
And as Lin Jie watched Tang Ye’s backward step, the smile on his face beca increasingly reckless.
"It seems you are afraid. You are afraid of her dying, haha, look, this is your weakness. You shouldn’t have this weakness; you should be braver! Move forward! Even further forward, let kill your sister, or even! You! Kill her! Hahaha~ hehahahaha!"
While speaking, Lin Jie once again led Li Qingtian a step forward, and Tang Ye retreated accordingly with his movents.
In this mont, Lin Jie seed to have grasped so sort of leverage over Tang Ye, and his facial expression beca utterly unrestrained.
"You are still human after all... hehehe~ still far too weak."
Lin Jie shook his head, step by step approaching Tang Ye.
Tang Ye’s continuous retreating was observed by Li Qingtian, who looked into Tang Ye’s eyes and slightly shook her head, as if to tell him, "Don’t worry, nothing will happen to ."
But the more she did this, the less willing Tang Ye was. Although he was a zombie, a long ti ago, he too was a person! A living, breathing person, his humanity, his soul, always present, eternally unchanging!
Humans have many flaws, and Tang Ye, having transford from a human to a zombie, could not avoid them; humanity is always present.
And people often neglect what they already possess, needing most what is scarce to them.
And so it was with Tang Ye, what he lacked was precisely what everyone should have, and that was kinship!
Having finally found a kinship of his own, how could he possibly give it up just like that?
That was simply impossible!
And so, as Lin Jie advanced step by step, Tang Ye retreated step by step, until at last, they switched places, with Lin Jie beginning to move backward, and Tang Ye starting to move forward.
The distance between them remained constant the whole ti.
Before long, Lin Jie arrived at a passage covered by various tal pieces, and as a Level 7 New Human, he easily cleared the rubble, continuing to retreat while holding Li Qingtian hostage.
As the passage was cleared, Tang Ye frowned upon seeing everything inside.
"What are you going to do?"
"What do you think I am going to do?"
