Chapter 44 (1/2)

Ye Tianlong opened his eyes again. Just beside him, a corner of the flower bed had been severely split, and the gravel in it was dashed out. He quickly looked at Shen Chen. He looked happy but puzzled.

“Remember what you said today!” Shen Chen put the Black Blade back in its sheath. His eyes were fixed on Ye Tianlong. He added, “If one day you let me find out your evil deeds, you will die without a burial place!”

Shen Chen’s words made Ye Tianlong shiver. His eyes showed a deep fear. He stammered, “No… no… no! I haven’t done and will never do anything harmful to others! I swear!”

Shen Chen didn’t speak anymore. As soon as they entered the residential building, they saw Ye Xiaoyu and Guo Yuan standing at the door and waiting for them. When Ye Xiaoyu saw Shen Chen, her eyes suddenly shone with joy. She was so happy she wanted to raise her hand to wave at Shen Chen, but she suddenly thought of something, and her face turned red. She looked so awkward.

Shen Chen smiled and looked at Ye Xiaoyu. What happened last night had left something on the girl’s heart. Shen Chen knew that, so he didn’t speak to her. He said to Guo Yuan, “Let’s go back. We’ve been out all night. I’m afraid everyone is worried about us.”

Guo Yuan nodded and smiled. “Okay! Let me get my stuff first!”

Ye Tianlong looked at Shen Chen and asked in a hurry, “Master, are you really not going to stay with our team?”

“I have a team of my own,” Shen Chen said coldly but with a trace of friendliness.

Ye Tianlong sighed and said, “Of course, of course. Master, you should have your own team. You are such a great man.” After that, Ye Tianlong sincerely took out some food and handed it to Guo Yuan. “You can keep these cans. I have nothing else to say about my gratitude. I hope that we all can survive through this miserable end of the world!”

Shen Chen smiled. He picked up a can and returned the rest to Ye Tianlong. Then, he left with Ye Xiaoyu and Guo Yuan.

Looking at their disappearing figures, Ye Tianlong’s eyes sank into their sockets. ‘Shen Chen, this man… he should not be underestimated!’ Ye Tianlong thought.

On the way back, Ye Xiaoyu had a look at Shen Chen. Although he still wore his calm and serious look, she felt an obvious difference in his mood. He looked as if a huge load had been lifted off his shoulders. He was much more relaxed than before. He was totally different from the man who saw Ye Tianlong for the first time at the drugstore. At that time, he was more like a tiger who wanted to eat Ye Tianlong alive.

Ye Xiaoyu bit her lip and blushed. She said, “Shen Chen, you look quite happy.”

Shen Chen nodded and said, “Well, what’s the matter? You can see that?”

Indeed, what Ye Tianlong said to him had really changed his mind. On the way back, he had thousands of opportunities to kill Ye Tianlong. When they came in front of the residential building, he had thought about killing Ye Tianlong. If Ye Tianlong lived for one more day, the potential for disaster was enormous. But later, Ye Tianlong’s words had really touched him and changed his mind.

Maybe in this life Ye Tianlong wouldn’t be as utterly devoid of conscience as in his previous life. And Shen Chen believed that his last warning to Ye Tianlong, no matter what, would make him fear when he did evil in the future.

But most of all, Shen Chen believed that with his own ability, if there was any news about Ye Tianlong doing bad things, no matter where he was, he would find him and kill him!

Listening to Ye Xiaoyu’s question, a smile appeared on the corner of Shen Chen’s mouth. “Yes, I am in a good mood now!”

Ye Xiaoyu said, also with a smile, “Speaking of Ye Tianlong, he’s a lucky guy. He used to work in that supermarket, but he became the leader of more than forty people by the end of the day. Shen Chen, there are so many people working under him. He has a lot more power than you.”

Shen Chen laughed. Number was not the key to defining a team. How many zombies could a Saint Tier neo-human in the previous life fight on his own? Now, people couldn’t imagine that with one person’s strength they could beat thousands of troops! But the word “team” was always for a few partners with the same strength!

All of a sudden, his smile disappeared. His eyes flickered, and then, instantly, he slammed on the brake! Ye Xiaoyu and Guo Yuan hit their heads on the back of the seats because of the sudden braking.

Shen Chen clasped the steering wheel, his fingernails deeply digging into it! He looked terrible! A kind of unimaginable anger erupted across his face.
