I Bit Everyone and Became the Strongest Zombie Cultivator

Chapter 54: Just One Hug!

Chapter 54: Just One Hug!

Still Luo Zehn's POV:

A few minutes later:

Once the tearjerking moment was over, and everyone had said their thanks, I decided to do the most foolish thing I had ever done.

Upon sensing that this Yong Rui kid couldn't control the Qi energy inside him, I decided to aide him by lending some of my Qi to him.

"He's still not waking up, what do we do?" Liu Zhi concernedly asked. In his eyes, I could tell that he couldn't stomach the number of bites Yong Rui had. But just like before, he didn't move an inch from where he was.

"Is there anything we could do?" Wu Yan clasped her hands in front of me as she stared at me with googly and teary eyes. I could tell that she owed Yong Rui her life and she has probably fallen head over heel for him.

Good on you, Yong Rui! Now wake up already!

"I will try to ease his tempestuous qi energy by lending him some of mine. We can't help him with any medicine or material... but I'm pretty sure that we can aide him in his self-healing by lending him some of my Qi."

"But... what if that made his energy go even more wild? Wouldn't that cripple him for life?" Liu Zhi asked.

"That's why I'll only be assisting him internally. I won't feed him my Qi energy, but instead, I will envelop him with it and hopefully, that would help him contain his Qi." I continued.

The three of them could more or less understand what I was talking about so they unanimously nodded.

"We'll take care of any stray zombie that will come here. Please, we'll leave him to you." Liu Zhi bowed towards me as soon as he stood up.

"Leave it to me."

Once that's settled, I accessed my Qi Core with it's fire attributes and wrapped it around the stormy qi that came out of Yong Rui. To my surprise, instead of enveloping Yong Rui, my Qi energy was absorbed as if Yong Rui was a sponge and my Qi was water. And not only that, Yong Rui even went as far as to absorb the Qi energy directly inside me.

"This is dangerous! We have to get out of here, right now!" I screamed.

Since Liu Zhi and the others were a realm above me, they were able to sense the disturbance before I did. After hearing it from me, the four of us rushed away from Yong Rui as fast as we could.

Swiiiish!

In that split second, the Qi in the surrounding area was sucked dry. A portion of the forest was cleared and even the ground was as dead as ashes. There was not a speck of Qi left in a hundred-meter radius.

"What's going on?" I asked myself, as we slowly approached Yong Rui.

Wait... was he sitting down when we left him?

Somehow, the aura surrounding Yong Rui has gotten much more tumultuous and unrestrained. But there was a bit of a difference compared to before. Before there was no control whatsoever in his Qi but now, it's as if the Qi was bending at his will.

What monstrous Qi absorption!

.....

Tang Yongrui's POV

Wait, I'm awake?! And what was that explosion just now?!

I was convinced that my cultivation took a turn for the worst and that I won't be waking up a few days from now...

But miracle of miracles!

A warm Qi enveloped my body, making my wild Qi calm down for a moment and allowing me to take control of it. And before it was too late, I was able to control my Original Qi Core as well before it exploded. Whatever that Qi is or wherever it came from, I would be eternally grateful. That was a literal lifesaver!

"Man, my head hurts." I sighed as I tried to stand up. To my surprise, although I already took control of my mind, I still couldn't control my body.

"You're exhausted. Well, that should be normal since you just absorbed all the Qi in the surrounding area." Luo Zehn came up to me, offering a hand. "You all right?"

"You're telling me... I did all these?" I couldn't believe it. Even when I was at the peak of Dao Realm, I could never be this efficient in absorbing Qi energy. But then again, I felt so much stronger ever since I lost control a few minutes ago.

Was this how strong I was back when I reached the Sixth-Level of Spirit Realm? I don't think so.

"Yong Rui, are you okay?!" A girl's voice squealed from afar. She was teary-eyed and by the looks of it, she was rushing forward just so she could hug me.

Ah, so this is what youth feels like...

But before she could reach me, Liu Zhi and Blade stepped forward, blocking her path.

"Wu Yan, you can't. Not right now." Liu Zhi reprimanded her as if she were a little kid. "He's still not fully recovered yet..."

Whaaaat?! You mean to tell me, just because I couldn't move my body at all, a girl can't hug me anymore? What on... !

"That's right, Wu Yan. Besides, he has a lot of bite marks on him. If you were to hug him, it's like you're putting salt in all those wounds." Luo Zehn agreed, putting his katana away.

Sigh... so much for youth. A hug isn't that much, right? Right?!

But now that I think about it, I don't even feel pain although most of my flesh on my arms and legs were chewed off. They looked excruciatingly painful but I couldn't feel anything. It's probably due to the fact that my body is that of a rabid human already.

"Wu Yan, I'm glad you're okay." That was the only thing I could say as Luo Zehn slung me on his shoulder like a sack of rice.

"Mhmm." Wu Yan nodded as she wiped the tears off her face. Based on her expressions alone, I could tell that she was genuinely relieved that I didn't die. Or maybe, she was just glad to be alive.

Can't I just assume the former?
