Fu Shinan swung her enhanced weapon and brought it crashing down onto a zombie’s head. The impact was astounding, thanks to her system-boosted weapon, and the zombie’s skull burst open. “Don’t worry, I’ve got this.”

Seeing her in action, MO Cheng flashed a goofy smile at Fu Shinan before turning back to engage the zombies.

Meanwhile, the villagers from Changkong were in complete chaos, crying and screaming in the face of the horrifying spectacle before them.

Fu Shinan shouted once more, “Aim for their heads! The head is their weak spot. They’re no longer your family…”

At that very moment, on a nearby hillside, a man concealed in a long black coat, his face obscured, observed the scene with a sneer. Behind him stood dozens of villagers, including the white-browed elder.

As he witnessed the villagers succumbing one by one, the elder could no longer bear it. “High Priest, please, intervene and save them!”

The High Priest cast a cold glance at him. “Do you understand the consequences of doubting the gods? Are you also doubting them?”

The elder fell into silence.

Back in the valley, Fu Shinan and her companions continued their fierce battle against the zombies. While she had the bravery to fight, she couldn’t match Ji Zan’s sheer strength. She was already soaked in sweat and struggling to catch her breath. As a surgeon, her physical endurance was above average, but comoared to Ti Zan. she fell short.

Every time she witnessed Ji Zan in action, Fu Shinan couldn’t help but wonder: Is such endurance even humanly possible? What was even more terrifying was that it seemed like Ji Zan’s strength grew with each battle!

Just as Fu Shinan finally glimpsed the dawn and the zombies fell one by one, a sudden noise pierced the air.

The young person leading the way for Ji Zan and the team barely had a moment to catch his breath when his expression abruptly changed, and he yelled loudly,

“Take cover, it’s blowdarts! These darts are poisoned…”

Ji Zan instinctively dodged, inadvertently exposing Fu Shinan behind him.

Fu Shinan sought refuge as well, but she was a step too slow. In the next instant, a sharp pain pierced her chest, and she saw a glint of silver from a needle.

“Fu Shinan!” Ji Zan rushed to her side and caught her as she fell.

Meanwhile, an increasing number of darts were raining down on them like a storm. Ji Zan desperately tried to activate his magnetic control ability, but it refused to respond. It was clear that the High Priest was nearby! “Quick, retreat into the woods.”

Everyone scattered, but many were still struck by the flying darts and collapsed.

“Sister Fu!” MO Cheng desperately discharged electricity in the direction of the darts, but his ability was suppressed, and he quickly fled into the forest. “Brother Ji, will Sister Fu be okay?” He was concerned, especially given the poison on the darts.

Ji Zan checked Fu Shinan’s pulse and heartbeat; they were still there but slowing down. He attempted to use his healing ability, but it still wouldn’t work, and he couldn’t help but feel anxious. “Let’s hurry back. That person’s ability has a range. We need to get away from here so I can save her.”

“Okay,” MO Cheng said, intending to carry Fu Shinan, but he saw Ji Zan pick her up instead.

At this moment, only five of the people who had followed Ji Zan remained. None of them spoke, as they hadn’t expected their fellow tribe members to survive, only to be killed by their own kind.

Ji Zan didn’t have time to concern himself with these people’s thoughts. He returned to the small courtyard and quickly removed the dart from Fu Shinan’s chest. Then he placed his hand on her. A faint green light emitted from his palm, and in no time, Fu Shinan, exhausted, opened her eyes. As her gaze met Ji Zan’s hand resting on her chest, her face instantly turned crimson. She quickly said, “I’m okay…”

Ji Zan withdrew his hand at that moment.

Man Yu leaned in, asking with an ambiguous tone, “How are you feeling?”

Fu Shinan ignored the improper look in her eyes and didn’t respond to her. “I’m much better now. What kind of poison was that? It was so potent…”

To ease the awkwardness, Ji Zan picked up the dart and sniffed it, saying, “It should be snake venom. The High Priest was nearby just now!” His expression turned ice-cold. “He must die!” Anyone who could resort to such violence was extremely cunning and would continue to be a threat. Moreover, this person had no intention of sparing them.

Watching Ji Zan quickly stride out, Fu Shinan opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something but then closed it.

Man Yu sat down beside her, put her arm around her shoulders, and said, “Don’t worry, Ji Zan will surely find a way.”

However, Fu Shinan still felt uneasy. After all, she hadn’t followed and couldn’t control the High Priest. She could only say, “Tell Ji Zan, maybe we should wait until daytime to take action….”
