Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Some Secrets Revealed

After two hours of cultivating and using up almost all the crystal cores they had on them, Chu Miao and Ye Xuan left their cultivation state at the same time.

They were quite synchronized.

"Have you recovered?" Ye Xuan asked Chu Miao when he realized that she had also stopped cultivating.

"Yes, let’s go get rid of those zombies then collect our crystal cores." Chu Miao replied and walked to him, held his hand, and teleported outside the building.

They landed at a spot that was not very crowded with zombies as most of the zombies had left and others were still roaming around, but without a clear target, they were no longer clustered together.

When they landed, the zombies near them rushed towards them and started attacking them again.

They repeated the same fighting style of standing back-to-back and resumed their onslaught.

They killed zombies until 3.00am in the morning before clearing the last batch.

Looking at the battlefield that was filled with piles of zombies, Chu Miao had a headache.

Killing zombies felt good because not only was she fighting for humanity, but she was also strengthening herself and improving her cultivation. But now came the challenge of collecting crystal cores.

For the zombies, they had burnt with light energy or lighting and turned to ashes; it was easy to collect the crystal cores because they could see them.

Using a little spiritual energy was all that she needed to grab all of them. But what about those still in the heads of the dead zombies?

What was she supposed to do? What was more infuriating was that not every zombie had a crystal core in its head. Some were just plain, rotten, brains.

Ye Xuan looked at Chu Miao, whose face had changed into different expressions in one minute and smiled. He understood her dilemma.

Collecting crystal cores from all these zombies was not easy, but he had seen her family collect them without needing to touch each one before.

He didn’t know what method they used, but he knew that as long as the crystal cores were exposed, then she would be able to gather them.

"How about I use my lightning ability to burn them and then you can collect the crystal cores?" Ye Xuan asked Chu Miao after thinking about it.

"Huh!" Chu Miao was surprised that he had come up with such an idea.

She was used to setting the zombies on fire once the battle was complete to expose the crystal cores, but today without her brother or the butler, she had been confused.

She didn’t expect Ye Xuan to think of replacing fire with lightning. But if it worked, then that would be good.

"Okay, if it can burn these things then that would be great." She agreed immediately.

Of course, she would not pass on such a good offer. She could just wait to collect the crystal cores.

Ye Xuan used his thunder superpower to create small clusters of lightning and dropped them on the zombies.

To Chu Miao’s surprise, the zombies that were affected turned into ashes, just like what happened when they were fighting.

After doing this almost ten times, he had covered all the zombies and turned them into ashes.

Chu Miao then used her spiritual power to create wind and blew away the ashes leaving bare skeletons and crystal cores behind.

Ye Xuan still didn’t understand how someone with a water ability superpower and the light she produced could create wind.

But he didn’t ask. He knew what he was supposed to ask and what he should keep to himself.

After all the crystal cores were exposed, Chu Miao used her spiritual energy again to collect them and dropped them in front of their feet.

They had killed around two thousand zombies that night and harvested five hundred crystal cores.

Chu Miao divided the crystal cores into two piles, each with two hundred and fifty, and started putting her share in the backpack she carried.

She had taken it from the car while Ye Xuan was burning the zombies.

She also handed him his own backpack.

Ye Xuan didn’t argue with her over the division of their spoils of war. He wanted to give her more, but he knew that she would not accept.

So, he squatted down and started collecting his own pile of crystal cores.

After all they were done, they turned to look at the mall.

"Are we still raiding the mall?" Chu Miao asked. They had fought for several hours and were tired and honestly, having so many crystal cores was already a significant gain.

But she also didn’t want to go back empty-handed.

"How about we check out the cafe across the mall? It might have some supplies, enough to carry today then come back tomorrow night.

We don’t have to worry about other people carrying the supplies in the mall before us because no one would come out during the day.

If we come back tomorrow with Li Kun and your brother we can take more supplies instead of opening the door right now and risk another round of fighting.

There must be some zombies inside the mall." Ye Xuan suggested it because he also wanted to go back and rest.

Tonight he had gained a lot. Not only did he get more than two hundred crystal cores and his cultivation stabilized completely, but his relationship with Chu Miao had improved and become closer.

They even built a certain level of trust between them.

Now, Chu Miao was not hidden as deep as she had before tonight.

"That’s also okay. We don’t have to carry too much anyway. Just enough to fool those with their eyes glued to us." Chu Miao agreed with Ye Xuan’s suggestion as she felt that it made sense.

Besides, she had discovered that her family had already come out of seclusion, but couldn’t leave the space because she wasn’t home and couldn’t let them out.

Her grandfather was feeding the pigs in the pig pen they had built while her father was fishing in the stream that had appeared not long ago. The live seafood she had bought in Pearl City had been moved from the pond they had dug before to the stream.

Her mother was busy making breakfast in the kitchen in the courtyard, and her silly brother was looking around the vegetable garden doing nothing.
