Chapter 73: An Accident At Home
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The red moon hung high in the sky, and the bright red moonlight shone on the ground.
Liu Zhengsheng and the others walked carefully on the street.
The 10 of them observed their surroundings vigilantly, wary of any problems.
“Walk faster. There are no monsters here now. It’s safe here,” Chu Xiu reminded them when he saw how nervous they were.
If they continued to dawdle, it would be a waste of time.
When Liu Zhengsheng and the others heard Chu Xiu’s words, although they quickened their pace, their vigilance did not decrease at all. Instead, because they quickened their pace, they became even more vigilant.
Chu Xiu didn’t care that Liu Zhengsheng and the others didn’t believe him.
He only reminded him because he did not want to waste time, but he had nothing to do now.
“Wuwu.”
At this moment, Black Bean, who had been hiding in his jacket pocket, crawled out.
She looked at the surrounding group of people, and a hint of curiosity flashed across her eyes.
She was not very clear about her master’s plan, but she knew that her master had something to do now.
Furthermore, Black Bean felt very comfortable hiding in Chu Xiu’s pocket.
She stretched out half of her body, and narrowed her eyes to watch everything that was happening.
Chu Xiu also sensed Black Bean’s actions. He reached out and touched her with his hand twice before frowning slightly.
“Hooowl!”
At this moment, everyone passed by the street entrance, and walked in the direction of a residential area.
And now, after they passed by this entrance, they realized that the cries of some monsters were coming from a small shop not far away.
Liu Zhengsheng immediately stopped in his tracks.
There was a hint of panic in their eyes. Then, they looked at each other, and looked at Chu Xiu.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Chu Xiu raised his brows, but he didn’t say anything.
He easily walked past everyone, and looked at the small shop from which the noise came.
In his line of sight, the door of the small shop was wide open. At the same time, he could vaguely see a few figures.
Those figures seemed to be avoiding the moonlight, not showing their heads at all.
When Chu Xiu saw this, he understood that there were some zombies hiding here. They were avoiding the moonlight.
Pffft!
In an instant, a black flame appeared by Chu Xiu’s feet.
The appearance of the black flame immediately attracted the attention of Liu Zhengsheng and the others behind him.
They had all seen the power of the black flames before. Now that they saw the black flames, their eyes were filled with curiosity and greed.
They also wanted to possess the black flames because having them meant that they had the power to protect themselves.
Chu Xiu ignored the gazes of the people behind him, and controlled the black flames to insert them into the shop.
Then, relying on the feedback of the black flames, Chu Xiu suddenly increased the power, and instantly enveloped the zombies inside.
Then, he relied on the devouring ability of the Black Hell Flame to instantly devour those zombies.
“Woof.”
Black Bean in his pocket let out a soft cry after sensing the energy transmitted by the Black Hell Flame.
As for the Black Hell Flame, it could only be released when Chu Xiu came into contact with Black Bean.
At the same time, most of the energy that the Black Hell Flame devoured was fed back into Black Bean’s body.
Chu Xiu could not absorb much of this energy.
Only a small portion would flow into his body, augmenting his physique.
The number of zombies he had just killed was about 30, which increased his physical fitness by a little. It could be seen as a trace of improvement.
After all, this special ability belonged to Black Bean, and Black Bean’s main improvement was physical strengthening.
“Brother Chu, you’re so powerful. With you around, we really feel especially at ease!” Liu Zhengsheng praised from the side. At the same time, he looked at Chu Xiu with a hint of envy.
“Brother Chu, have you investigated when this power of yours appeared?”
Liu Zhengsheng slowly walked to Chu Xiu’s side, and pretended to be nonchalant.
“I’m not sure. 1 had it after the blood rain. I couldn’t figure it out even if 1 probed.
“I don’t think this is the time to talk. You should hurry up and find someone.”
After seeing through Liu Zhengsheng’s motive, Chu Xiu said a few sentences, and continued to fall behind the team.
He didn’t care about the flattery of others at all. He only casually replied to them.
Soon, when everyone sensed Chu Xiu’s attitude, they immediately felt a little displeased.
There were even a few people who began to show displeasure, and their attitudes towards Chu Xiu changed.
Seeing the change in their attitudes, Chu Xiu could only watch coldly.
He was not surprised by their behavior at all. In fact, he did not care at all.
Of course, it did not mean that he would just act like an ostrich and ignore it.
Chu Xiu did not say a word and continued to fall behind the group. Then, he pulled further and further away.
When Liu Zhengsheng saw that Chu Xiu was getting further and further away from their team, he immediately felt uncertain.
He hurriedly made the team stop and jogged to Chu Xiu’s side.
“Brother Chu, are you tired? Do you need to rest?”
Liu Zhengsheng looked at Chu Xiu in surprise. He carefully sized Chu Xiu up.
Realizing that the other party did not look tired, he was a little surprised that the other party was walking a little slowly.
“Didn’t 1 say that I’ll take the back? I’m taking the back now..”
