203 You Aren't Alone

They had to look on helplessly as their teammate went to meet death with a faint smile on his face, united with his family at last. They felt like a rock was sitting in their chest.

Qiao Mu subconsciously clenched her fists and looked up.

It was as though she was all by herself standing on the edge of a cliff thousands of feet aboveground. Boundless darkness laid above and below her, and her sight was blurred. She could not hear or see anything.

Suddenly, a pair of gentle arms picked her up and a hand lightly patted her back.

Qiao Mu smelled a familiar scent and laid her head on Xu Shanshan's shoulders. A muffled voice called out, "Eldest Senior Sister…"

"Don't be afraid. Eldest Senior Sister will protect you."

The child's heart trembled, and she laid on Xu Shanshan's shoulder without moving. Only Xu Shanshan could faintly feel an icy feeling streaming down from her neck.

The child lightly murmured, "Eldest Senior Sister, if only I met you earlier…"

If she met Eldest Senior Sister in her previous life, perhaps she wouldn't have been alone and by herself at the very end, fighting for her dignity and honor until death.

Xu Shanshan felt her heart clench.

For some reason, she felt like there was a deep sorrow in the child's voice when she quietly murmured those words.

"You won't be alone." Xu Shanshan walked forward while holding the child.

Everyone in the group took a deep breath and headed toward the main door of the building. Xue Xiao and Li Ling were in charge of dragging the tightly and intricately bound zombie.

After everyone moved the desks and chairs blocking the door, Xue Xiao and Li Ling walked at the front of the group with the level-three zombie.

Although Ah-Qing said that the murder of crows in the sky would have more scruples with this level-three zombie in hand, everyone's heart was still pulled taut, and they entered a tense ready-for-battle mode.

Xue Xiao and Li Ling dragged the level-three zombie out of the door.

Meanwhile, everyone else looked up at the sky and saw that the zombie crows above the sky continued to spiral and did not show any signs of plunging down. Their raised hearts finally relaxed slightly.

Xu Shanshan decisively said, "Head north."

The Heavenly Dao Sect headed to the north. According to the townspeople of Qinghe Town, a large number of zombies gathered in the north side, and the soldiers sent by the royal court were also trapped there.

Hopefully, matters had not become too terrible.

The child grasped the two Core Ravaging Thunder in her pocket. Unless it was the last resort, she did not want to use this concealed weapon that could level half a mountain with its explosion.

Although the power of the Core Ravaging Thunder was great, its sound was also abnormally frightening.

A sound like that would attract a large number of zombies. Perhaps even all the zombies in Qinghe Town's vicinity would be attracted here.

The group dashed to the north side of Qinghe Town.

Before they ran too far, they saw the group from Daybreak Sect running very raggedly toward them under Shang Kun's lead.

When the two groups met, Shang Kun shouted at Xue Xiao and Li Ling in a panic, "Run! There's a large murder of zombie crows from that side! Three of our teammates fell victim and couldn't escape!"

"Captain, look!" A member of Shang Kun's team shakily pointed at the zombie crows spiraling above Xue Xiao and her group.

The heavens really wanted them to die!!!

The murder of zombie crows led by Xue Xiao's group was at least 10 times bigger than the one they encountered…

Hold on… How did Xue Xiao and her group get here perfectly fine without a hair damaged under the attack of this many zombie crows?
