I Bit Everyone and Became the Strongest Zombie Cultivator

Chapter 53: I'm a Guy!

Luo Zehn?! What are you doing here?

Oh right, he did tell me that he will join me in my adventure to the Ziyou Shelter. Still, he arrived earlier than expected. That must mean, their journey back to Tang Shelter was successful, hopefully.

"Yeah, his name is Yong Rui." Wu Yan muttered. "Or at least, that's what he told us."

"You mean, Tang Yongrui?" Luo Zehn asked.

"No, just Yong Rui. Rui is his name." Blade simply responded.

"Rui? But that's a girl's name... don't tell me?!"

NO! LUO ZEHN! WHATEVER YOU'RE THINKING DON'T DO IT! I'm a guy, you know! I'm a guy! You don't have to check what's down there... you'll just see my third leg. Also, there's a girl here, don't be immodest!

And what if I was a girl, Luo Zehn? Haah?!

Thankfully, Blade interrupted Luo Zehn before he could even do anything. "No, he's a guy. But when I first saw his long hair, I thought he was a girl as well."

"With a face like that, someone can mistake him for a girl. He's just too handsome to ever exist." Liu Zhi spoke.

I don't know if he was sucking up to me or his compliment was really genuine... but in any case, it felt really nice to hear it from someone as good-looking as Liu Zhi as well.

NO! Yongrui, focus! Stabilize your core!

It was so hard blocking my senses from Liu Zhi and the others but as I gradually continued my stabilization process, I could tell that it was successful. The gathered Qi around us provided a shield for the Virus Qi Core instead of becoming a part of the main core. Because of that, the outside of the VIrus Qi Core was strengthened and I didn't need to focus that much on stabilizing it. Once I can subconsciously do it, i will work on my original Qi Core.

But I don't think I'll be waking up soon.

Luo Zehn's POV

During my first day of travels, I've got a worrying feeling inside me that made me rush through my journey. As someone who's in the King Realm, sprinting for an hour straight is something of the norm.

And it didn't take long before I arrived where the young man was. Just like the first time I met him, he was being surrounded by zombies, or what does he call them? rabid humans? In any case, I found him again in his berserk state, trying to stand up against hundreds, if not thousands, of rabid humans surrounding him.

It was a one-sided fight but seeing the fire in his eyes made me not want to interrupt. He hasn't given up and every second that passed, a rabid human would be found ripped into pieces. He was relentless in tearing them to shreds but I could tell that it wasn't him.

He wasn't the one doing all these things.

"What happened to you this time? The same thing also happened when you attacked Si Shelter, right? What triggers someone as kind-hearted as you to resort to something so inhumane?" I asked myself, and that's when I noticed the presence of three people from afar.

I circled around the young man, and when I found myself with the three, I could tell that they were eagerly waiting for the young man to return to them. There was a hint of fear in their eyes and their hands were shaking, bodies trembling. But although their instinct told them to run away from the area and never come back, they still stayed.

As calm as I could, I walked out from the undergrowths and approached the group while scratching my head. "Man, why are you just standing here. Shouldn't you help that young man over there?"

The group almost jumped back in surprise as they saw me. Just from the energy they were releasing alone, I could tell that they were strong. Their cultivation level is a realm above me and yet... and yet I don't feel afraid at all. I can tell that I could beat all of them in a one-on-one fight, except for the big guy. I can tell that he's an assassin type. As someone who's proficient in the way of the sword, I could probably defeat him if I put my life on the line, but in a casual fight, I'm not that confident facing him.

"Who are you?!" The big guy asked me. Before I knew it, a dagger was pressed on my neck.

But before it could touch me, I immediately jumped back and pulled out my katana from my back. "Relax, I'm not an enemy. I'm Luo Zehn from the Tang Shelter, a friend of the young man over there."

"I'm Liu Zhi, the leader of this party. Can you please help us?" Liu Zhi asked.

"You mean, help you with that girl? No, sadly, you have to give up on her, she's already bi- wait... is this real?" I asked in utter perplexity.

Somehow or the other, although the girl was clearly bitten by a rabid human, there was no virus inside her.

"Wha... how?" I couldn't help but utter.

"We don't know either. But that young man, he's the one who did it for us." Liu Zhi pointed. "He attracted the horde just so we could escape and he's already been bitten plenty of times... but we still want to save him."

"And the thing is, we don't know what to do."

"All right, I more or less get what's happening," I told them as I stood up. "It's because of the spores, right? I will get rid of it. And as soon as you get an opening, I want all of you to attack the horde. Meanwhile, I will save that kid."

They all nodded.

Without further ado, I dashed into the horde as I held my breath. One whiff of the spores and it would be over for me. But since I've been training my breathing, this much is nothing. Now, all that I have to do is to sense that cursed plant underground and get rid of it.
