Chapter 53: Im a Guy! (1/2)

Luo Zehn?! What are you doing here?

Oh right, he did tell me that he will join me in my adventure to the Ziyou Shelter. Still, he arrived earlier than expected. That must mean, their journey back to Tang Shelter was successful, hopefully.

”Yeah, his name is Yong Rui.” Wu Yan muttered. ”Or at least, that's what he told us.”

”You mean, Tang Yongrui?” Luo Zehn asked.

”No, just Yong Rui. Rui is his name.” Blade simply responded.

”Rui? But that's a girl's name... don't tell me?!”

NO! LUO ZEHN! WHATEVER YOU'RE THINKING DON'T DO IT! I'm a guy, you know! I'm a guy! You don't have to check what's down there... you'll just see my third leg. Also, there's a girl here, don't be immodest!

And what if I was a girl, Luo Zehn? Haah?!

Thankfully, Blade interrupted Luo Zehn before he could even do anything. ”No, he's a guy. But when I first saw his long hair, I thought he was a girl as well.”

”With a face like that, someone can mistake him for a girl. He's just too handsome to ever exist.” Liu Zhi spoke.

I don't know if he was sucking up to me or his compliment was really genuine... but in any case, it felt really nice to hear it from someone as good-looking as Liu Zhi as well.

NO! Yongrui, focus! Stabilize your core!

It was so hard blocking my senses from Liu Zhi and the others but as I gradually continued my stabilization process, I could tell that it was successful. The gathered Qi around us provided a shield for the Virus Qi Core instead of becoming a part of the main core. Because of that, the outside of the VIrus Qi Core was strengthened and I didn't need to focus that much on stabilizing it. Once I can subconsciously do it, i will work on my original Qi Core.

But I don't think I'll be waking up soon.

Luo Zehn's POV

During my first day of travels, I've got a worrying feeling inside me that made me rush through my journey. As someone who's in the King Realm, sprinting for an hour straight is something of the norm.

And it didn't take long before I arrived where the young man was. Just like the first time I met him, he was being surrounded by zombies, or what does he call them? rabid humans? In any case, I found him again in his berserk state, trying to stand up against hundreds, if not thousands, of rabid humans surrounding him.
