Chapter 507: 279 Zhou Han (Second Update)
Zhao Yan gave him a scrutinizing glance, noticed the strong aura emanating from him, hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Get in the car, no need for the Crystal Core."
However, Zhou Han was insistent, shoving the Crystal Core into her hand and then quickly pulled open the car door and got into the back seat.
Zhao Yan reached out to adjust the rearview mirror, to better monitor his every move, and at the same time asked, "May I know how to address this brother?"
Despite being a Martial Fool, Zhou Han was quite polite when facing his elders. Hearing Zhao Yan’s question, he waved his hand casually and said, "My name is Zhou Han, big sister can just call me Xiao Zhou, and may I know how to address big sister?"
He had a baby face, big eyes, and fair skin. When he smiled, two small fangs appeared, making him look particularly cute.
Zhao Yan had initially been somewhat wary of his strength, but finding him so amiable, she first let out a sigh of relief in her heart. She thought, those two people she brought back couldn’t possibly be bad guys. Although it seemed this man was following them and the two weren’t very courteous to him, since they had let him follow, they must be quite reassured about him.
Zhao Yan couldn’t explain why she trusted them so much, it seemed that ever since her return from skirting around Ghost Gate, she subconsciously trusted both Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin. No, to be more precise, she trusted Fang Yuxin, who had saved her.
Even looking at her, she couldn’t help but be reminded of her own daughter, who had passed away. She knew Fang Yuxin was certainly no ordinary person, so she never thought about voicing her sentiments, only silently caring for her in her heart, feeling content just to see her do well.
However, despite Zhou Han appearing easy to get along with and lacking the arrogance typical of high-level superpower users, Zhao Yan never let down her guard. On the way, she took the opportunity while chatting with Zhou Han to subtly probe into his background.
Zhou Han looked rather simple-minded and seemed completely oblivious to Zhao Yan’s probing. He answered whatever she asked, and even volunteered information she hadn’t inquired about.
Through this line of questioning, Zhao Yan found out that Zhou Han was already twenty years old, came from an ordinary working-class family, and had been crazily passionate about martial arts from a young age, even going so far as to insist on going to Shaolin Temple and Wudang Mountain to train.
But his family had traditional views, believing that children should focus on their studies, and they never agreed to his requests. Nevertheless, seeing how much he made a fuss, they had planned to enroll him in an interest class, like Taekwondo, since many kids were learning it.
Yet Zhou Han was a peculiar case; he looked down on so-called Taekwondo and was infatuated with martial arts from wuxia novels, dreaming of encountering a hermit expert and mastering supreme skills, nearly driving his parents to their wit’s end.
Later, he secretly practiced by himself, combining what he read in wuxia novels with various shows, and astonishingly, without proper guidance, he not only managed to avoid any mishaps but actually developed some combat techniques.
After the apocalypse, he experienced an Awakening in the Enhancement System, first with strength, and when he advanced, he pondered enhancing other aspects and truly managed to speed up his body.
With the techniques he haphazardly developed, he had also killed quite a few zombies along the way. Originally, some people had wanted to recruit him for his prowess, but he was impatient with teaming up and had always operated solo, with only the occasional person following behind to scavenge.
Zhao Yan, initially quite cautious of him, couldn’t help but feel a bit of sympathy for him after hearing his story. Then, she thought of her nephew. Her nephew was about the same age as Zhou Han but couldn’t be more different in terms of character!
Even though Zhou Han was madly devoted to martial arts, he was a decent person, unlike her nephew, who had been spoiled by his family and remained childish. She wondered if he could fare well, left in the Safe Zone.
Zhao Yan sighed silently in her heart, but she had no regrets about her decision, rather feeling increasingly that her heartless choice to leave Zhao Liang behind was the right one! If the child continued following her, who knew how long it would take for him to grow up. It might be better to let him make his way on his own and grow up faster!
Their conversation quickly brought them to noon.
Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin chose a place to stop the car and, just as last time, used the excuse of searching for food in the forest to take a stroll. What was different was that this time they took the newly joined Bai Er with them, and once they were in the woods, Fang Yuxin took out two fresh pig hams from his space and gave them to Bai Er to eat.
