Right as Mo Yan disappeared, the female zombie in a white dress disappeared as well before the other zombies and the three humans could even react.
When Wu Chengyue's lightning faded, Si Kongchen had already lost his target. He paused and confusedly looked at the spot that Mo Yan was at.
"Eh? Where's the emperor?" Wu Chengyue turned to look at Si Kongchen with surprise. He was going to summon another wave of lightning from the sky.
"Roar..." Not only Si Kongchen and Wu Chengyue were surprised, all the other zombies had stopped moving and stared where Mo Yan was for a few seconds, then suddenly rushed at that area.
"Could it be... space? Does the zombie emperor have a space? No wonder he wasn't fighting back the whole time!" Lan Lu thought for a moment while blinking, then made his guess.
After realizing that both the zombie emperor and the female zombie had vanished into thin air, Lan Lu immediately thought of space. Only space possessors could do that. He believed that the zombie emperor had a space, which had been kept as a secret.
No wonder the zombie emperor didn't look panicked at all! His situation was highly critical, yet he stayed composed while trying to dodge all the attacks. He must have had a backup plan!
The space was his backup plan!
Among all on the scene, no one else but Wu Chengyue knew that not only did the zombie lady have a space, but could also turn invisible!
Hearing what Lan Lu said, Wu Chengyue glanced at him with a weird expression, then agreed with him, "I think you're right. He looked very calm, and all he did was dodge!"
As Mo Yan disappeared, the zombies on the scene suddenly lost their aim.
"Don't let those zombie dominators run!" Si Kongchen reacted quickly. The zombie emperor was gone, but there were still many preys right before their eyes. He immediately turned to the nearest zombie dominator.
"You're right!" Wu Chengyue nodded as he turned and sent a wave of lightning bolts toward another zombie dominator.
"Roar..." The zombies were enraged to find that the zombie emperor and the female zombie had both gone. At that very point, the group of humans attacked them. So, they instantly vented their fury on those humans.
Just like that, the war continued.
...
At that moment, Mo Yan who had been thrown into the woods in Lin Qiao's space, sighed with relief.
"Eh? What does that look on your face mean? You seem relieved. Did you know that I was going to save you?" Lin Qiao looked at him with surprise.
"Roar..." Once Lin Qiao showed up, the female zombie immediately came to stand before Mo Yan and stared at her alertly. But, Mo Yan put a hand on her shoulder to calm her down.
He walked out from behind the famale zombie and looked at Lin Qiao calmly. The dark marks on his face and his purely black eyes disabled Lin Qiao from seeing his face clearly.
He looked at Lin Qiao silently. In fact, he was taking a risk earlier. He didn't know if Lin Qiao would come to save him or not. He knew that she was nearby, because he sensed her faint vibe that the others couldn't sense. He couldn't tell for sure if she would help him, but he knew that she would not take the opportunity to kill him.
Mo Yan was aware that Lin Qiao would not save him for nothing under the current circumstances. She must want something in return. Being kind couldn't possibly be the only reason why she saved him.
Before Lin Qiao started talking, a strong gust of wind could be heard, then a figure darted through the space between Lin Qiao and Mo Yan.
Lin Qiao, who was going to say something, paused awkwardly.
Mo Yan and the female zombie only managed to react after the figure went away. They both kitted their brows and became highly alert. They looked at Lin Qiao and found her smiling face toned with a slight trace of embarrassment.
Half a second later, the expression on Lin Qiao's face became natural again. As she prepared to start talking, a strange series of dog barks was heard.
"Owowowowow!" The huge black dog rushed through the space between Lin Qiao and Mo Yan, as if they weren't there at all.
Lin Qiao again paused.
Mo Yan sensed the awkward atmosphere.
The female zombie was a little confused.
Lin Qiao took a deep breath to calm herself down. This time, she didn't start talking, but turned to look at where the two came from. As she expected, she turned to find an angry black snake coming over. As same as the other two, the snake ignored Lin Qiao and the other two zombies as well.
The three of them each took two steps backward to let the angry black snake pass, then finally started their conversation.
"I think you were hoping that I'd save you, right?" Lin Qiao looked at the snake as she said to Mo Yan.
Mo Yan looked at her and blinked, then slowly nodded.
Lin Qiao upturned the corners of her mouth and said, "Good! Since you've thought about that, you must have guessed out what I'm going to say now. Will you say yes?"
This time, Mo Yan didn't nod. Instead, he stared at Lin Qiao for a few seconds with his sharp eyes, then gave a roar.
'What do you want?'
Lin Qiao nodded as she looked at him and said with a smile, "Alright, as long as you agree! What you have to do is simple. You only need to follow me and follow my rules."
Mo Yan narrowed his eyes, and his vibe was stirred a little.
"Roar..." Before Mo Yan responded, the female zombie glared at Lin Qiao and gave her a roar.
'Why will my emperor work for you! You're only a dominator! You're at a lower level than him!'
Lin Qiao maintained the smile as she looked at the female zombie and said to her, "Because I saved his life. Without my help, how much longer do you think he could survive with his broken nucleus?"
Hearing that, the female zombie immediately fell into silence.
Mo Yan was stunned a little, then he looked at Lin Qiao with confusion.
Lin Qiao turned back to him as she looked at him in the eyes and said, "Aren't you curious why you can't use your power? Your nucleus can't store energy anymore because it's broken. The energy that you pressed into it earlier was beyond its bearing capacity, so it cracked. I assume that you didn't know about it, right?"
Hearing that, Mo Yan slightly widened his eyes with surprise. It took him a few seconds to process what Lin Qiao had said. After that, he wore a grim look. The dark marks on his face made him look more depressed than he already was.
"Don't worry! Your nucleus is only cracked, not shattered. With enough time, it'll heal. Besides, she's with you, and she can help you, right? If it really can't heal by itself, I'll find a way to fix it, " Lin Qiao said to him, then headed out of the woods.
"Owowow..."
Three figures once again whooshed across the three of them, starting a gust of wind.
