The Glutton began to slowly heal the two deep wounds it had just received.
But seeing its prey now as fragile as a candle in the wind, barely standing with the support of a blade.
Rage and hunting instinct made it pause its regeneration.
It wanted to finish off this prey that had wounded it twice while Ning Yu was at her most vulnerable!
The hideous face with its mouth full of sharp teeth let out another roar.
The putrid stench mixed with the stale air of the garage, creating an unbearable odor.
It charged towards Ning Yu, who was barely managing to stay upright.
But its steps were no longer agile, even stumbling, clearly showing that Ning Yu's two strikes had caused significant damage.
[Crimson War Blade upgrade experience +2]
[Crimson War Blade upgrade experience +2]
Hearing the system prompts in her mind, Ning Yu realized that Blood's Ancient Wish had activated again due to the two recent strikes, absorbing the Glutton's blood and gaining experience points.
It also provided her with a bit of energy!
Although her body was wracked with pain and the wet sensation of blood flowing from her wounds was extremely uncomfortable,
Ning Yu sprang into action, pressing her hand against the control switch of the nearby blast door.
The blast door, at least 30-40cm thick, slowly began to activate, starting to close with a rumbling sound!
Seeing the Glutton charging at her again, Ning Yu didn't raise the Crimson War Blade to face it.
She merely displayed a victorious smile, her blood-red eyes bewitchingly beautiful, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned.
The Glutton, seeing the door beginning to close, thought Ning Yu was trying to escape.
It charged even faster towards Ning Yu, raising its claws as it approached, intending to deliver a fatal blow!
Just as it was about to grab Ning Yu in that critical moment, she timed it perfectly and rolled on the ground.
She rolled through the gap of the blast door directly to the outside.
The Glutton immediately flew into a rage!
After chasing for so long and being wounded multiple times, how could it easily give up its prey?
Howling, it immediately followed Ning Yu, diving towards the narrowing gap of the large door.
However, unlike the petite body of the silver-haired little girl, its ugly form got directly caught in the door, which kept closing tighter and tighter!
The thick door exerted an incredibly strong biting force, trapping it immobile and causing it increasing pain!
Outside the door, Ning Yu's frail body was kneeling on the ground, that roll having almost exhausted her last reserves of strength.
She felt extremely dizzy, her body reaching its limit.
But she still forced herself up, using the Crimson War Blade to support herself once again.
Slowly walking to the front of the immobilized Glutton, she brought her blood-colored eyes close, staring intently at it.
As if silently mocking it.
Seeing its hateful prey dare to come so close, the Glutton immediately opened its bloody maw, intending to bite Ning Yu to death.
But the distance had been perfectly judged by Ning Yu, and it couldn't reach her at all.
She softly spoke a sentence in human language that the Glutton couldn't understand at all:
"You. Are. Finished."
In the darkness, the silver-haired little girl's eyes emitted a red glow, her smiling face cunning, otherworldly, and tragically beautiful.
With a "swish," the Crimson War Blade pierced into the Glutton's head without any resistance.
[Ding! You have killed a low-level mutant zombie Glutton, gaining 500 points!]
[Crimson War Blade upgrade experience +100]
[Ding! Your weapon Crimson War Blade has upgraded to: Mid-level. Unlocked weapon active skill: Dark Side of the Moon.]
[Ding! Urgent mission: Kill the Glutton 1/1 completed]
[Rewards issued: 5000 points, Storage Space exchange permission]
As a series of system prompts rang out in her mind, Ning Yu could no longer support herself and collapsed to the ground in pain.
But her hand didn't let go, still gripping the handle of the Crimson War Blade, its blade still embedded in the Glutton's head.
A warm current flowed along the blade handle, slowly entering her body.
It was Blood's Ancient Wish activating after absorbing the Glutton's blood, restoring her energy.
After a long while, the Glutton had been drained until it shriveled up, and the underground garage's blast door finally closed completely, severing it in two.
Only then did the silver-haired little girl slightly recover some strength, barely managing to sit up.
She began to examine her body.
There were deep, torn wounds on her abdomen and thigh, and multiple fractures throughout her body.
An ordinary person with such injuries would likely have already passed out from the unbearable pain.
Ning Yu had undergone pain endurance training in her previous life, which was why she could barely withstand it.
Even so, her forehead was covered in cold sweat from the pain.
Unable to take the time to look at the various rewards, she directly opened her points tab:
[Points: 9540]
This time, she was unprecedentedly 'wealthy,' but she was about to start spending immediately.
She quickly opened the [Supplies] tab and began searching for medical items.
Going back to treat her wounds was now out of the question.
The safest option was to endure the pain, urgently exchange points for some medical supplies, and treat her wounds on the spot.
[You have exchanged for medical gauze bandages (3 rolls)! Cost: 500 points]
[You have exchanged for medical disinfectant hydrogen peroxide (1 bottle)! Cost: 1000 points]
.....
Inside the small supermarket, in the backyard.
Shen Yiyue had started her afternoon training, and Ning Yu hadn't returned by noon.
But for some reason, she felt uneasy, perhaps because of the two women who had come asking for help at noon.
It wasn't that she felt guilty for not lending a hand, but rather that she could still recall the sinister look in those women's eyes.
She felt that this small supermarket had probably been targeted by someone.
But Ning Yu hadn't returned yet, and she had no one to discuss it with.
She just continued training diligently, planning to talk to Ning Yu about the situation when she returned.
Just then, she heard the sound of something breaking:
A loud "clang" came from the front door of the supermarket.
Had those two women come back?
Her heart immediately sank, and the bad feeling she'd had before grew even stronger.
Grabbing her long sword, she didn't even take the time to change out of her workout clothes before quickly rushing towards the front of the supermarket.
Her heart was racing violently.
Arriving at the front door, the scene before her eyes made Shen Yiyue's face pale with shock.
The lock on the door handle had been opened, and of the three iron chains inside, two had already been broken!
The last iron chain was being forcefully squeezed by a huge pair of plier-like cutters.
It was a hydraulic cutter! Being wielded by a pair of muscular arms.
Shen Yiyue anxiously rushed forward, trying to stop it, but just then:
"Clang!"
The last iron chain was also cut, and the supermarket's front door had been forcibly broken open with such thunderous methods!
Weren't they afraid that such a loud noise would attract zombies?
Shen Yiyue thought as she stopped her rush forward and slowly retreated.
The door was gently pushed open, and the owner of those muscular arms walked in.
A burly man with a cigarette in his mouth, bare-chested, entered.
His body was toned and muscular, with a fierce demon tattooed on his chest, looking very intimidating.
As soon as he entered, he saw the apprehensive Shen Yiyue.
He saw her beautiful and cute appearance, with white teeth and red lips, a slender and graceful figure wrapped in black workout clothes.
A pair of beautiful, clear eyes were looking at him with an angry gaze.
He immediately let out a frivolous whistle, his eyebrows raising unevenly, his eyes full of playfulness:
"Wow, what a hot little number~"
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System."

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
