Chapter 652: Chapter 652: The Woman Lying in the Road_1

He Zhenqi smiled and said to the side, "Young Master, don’t be angry. This is just the beginning. There will be plenty more excitement to come. Li Muyun is now like a mouse trapped in a cage; you can play with him however you want!"

"Hmph!" Liu Bai snorted coldly, continuing, "Right, onto whose body has Zhao’er’s soul attached?"

"Well... to reply to the Young Master, we’re still searching."

"Still searching, what does that mean?"

He Zhenqi sighed lightly and said, "Although we used Li Zichen’s Myriad Manifestation Eye and the Purgatory Angel’s aggregated superpowers to pull both Zhao’er and Li Muyun into the void of the array barrier and extracted their souls into the array barrier, according to the Order of the Boundary formulated by the Purgatory Angel, Zhao’er should have been the dean of the Business School, Wang Yanyu. But for some reason, Zhao’er’s soul just disappeared into thin air. It seems she has transcended the Order of the Boundary."

Liu Bai frowned and asked, "Can she be found?"

"That shouldn’t be a problem," He Zhenqi replied, somewhat bluffing; in truth, he was also in the dark, but he said so mainly to reassure Liu Bai.

"You must find Zhao’er soon!"

"Yes!"

Meanwhile, Xiao Feng, upon learning of your and Zhao’er’s disappearance on the surface of the artificial lake, quickly called your mother, "Aunt Ying, Little Yunyun has had an accident!"

The laid-back mother, lounging on the grassy slopes of Chaotian Village, replied with a slight smile, "I already know. It’s just child’s play, nothing serious. It’s about time that little bugger got some real-world experience. See if he’ll remain as carefree as before. Carrying a super treasure that everyone wants, yet having no awareness of it, always idling away."

Hearing his mother speak so nonchalantly, Xiao Feng also relaxed, and then asked, "But where have they both gone exactly?"

"To an interesting place. If he comes back from this trip, his temper might change somewhat, for better or worse."

"An interesting place?" Xiao Feng wondered.

"If he could turn into a decisive, valiant, and manly ’Tough Man’ after this, that would be quite something to look forward to," she snickered, clearly amused by the prospect.

As she spoke, your unscrupulous mother hung up the phone, giggling to herself.

At that moment, Mother En walked over holding Little Qinniang’s hand, and your mother said to Little Qinniang with a beaming smile, "Little Yan, what kind of boy do you like? Mama can start looking for you right now."

Little Qinniang tilted her head, thought for a bit, and smiled brightly like the sunshine, "I like Brother."

"Ah-Choo! Ah-Choo!"

You, trekking through the forest, sneezed twice in succession.

The forest here was dense, with hardly a trace of human presence, not to mention zombies.

Entering this forest was like becoming cut off from the outside. Even a few kilometers away where smoke billowed and zombies roamed, you, hidden within the thick woods, could not see anything.

You hadn’t ventured deep into the mountains; the mountains here were not only tall but also intricately winding. If you were unfamiliar with the place, you might enter and never find your way out.

Therefore, you kept to the mountain path and didn’t stray far from the city. On your way, you still witnessed many gruesome scenes, like at the school, with zombies everywhere.

The mountain trail was extremely difficult to navigate, and you often encountered a few wandering zombies. These zombies didn’t show any wounds on the surface, suggesting that they hadn’t turned into zombies due to an attack, leading you to deduce that the zombie virus could be transmitted through the air.

To break this array barrier, you had to find the source of the zombie contagion while abiding by the Order of the Boundary, eliminate it, and restore the world’s natural order.

In fact, the other reason for heading into the mountains was to survey the far distance from the mountaintop and observe the scope of the array barrier.

Since it was just a barrier, its range couldn’t be too vast. Once the extent of the array barrier was determined, it would be relatively simple to find the problem’s root cause.

In the forest, the aromas emitted by trees and plants were everywhere; therefore, you didn’t have to worry about zombies detecting your location by scent.

Not long into your walk, you found yourself on a cement road. Though not wide, it allowed two vehicles to pass, and what excited you immensely was seeing a BMW X5 SUV, just like Wu Qiyi’s.

The SUV was parked on a small clearing next to the mountain path. Initially, you didn’t approach it but observed from a distance. Upon verifying that there were no zombies or people inside, you then went closer.

The rear door was open, with clothes strewn haphazardly over the seats, but there was no food, which made you sigh softly.
