Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

When Xiaoyun and Kate arrived back in Luoping, it was already the afternoon.

As soon as the two of them entered their home, they were met by all the kids running away from them.

Only when Leyan came over, did the two realize how bad they smelled. It was almost like rotten eggs that had been out for months.

They quickly headed to the shower together, leaving Leyan curious about what they had experienced outside.

---

An hour after the shower...

All of Xiaoyun's wives were sitting at the table, and the children were sitting down right next to their mothers in booster seats.

"Stop fooling around, use the spoon correctly... Like this, okay, Lianrong?"

As Yuqi struggled to get her daughter to use a spoon for the porridge, everyone else couldn't help but chuckle.

"Hey, stop laughing at me," Yuqi responded with a hint of irritation as she corrected Lianrong's hand posture.

"Sorry."

Leyan apologized as she looked back to her son Yongyi and Yueyue's daughter Qiaolan.

The two of them had already gotten used to eating with their spoons, albeit very slowly, as they played with their food.

"Yuqi, you got to be more gentle... Just let her play with her food. It's not that big of a deal." Yueyue pointed out.

"It's spilled all over the place. It's not playing with food. It's wasting food."

Yuqi argued back as she finally made Lianrong eat her food in peace, her attention finally allowed to shift back to the food on the table.

"Xiaoyun, Kate, what did you two do going outside?" Wuli suddenly asked as everyone's attention shifted towards the two.

Both Xiaoyun and Kate looked at each other for a second before Kate gave him the look to go first.

"We went to Foshan's nuclear facility to negotiate for her family's release."

"You guys negotiated with the terrorists?" Yueyue asked in shock as she looked a little caught off guard.

"Yueyue!"

Leyan's voice quickly made Yueyue shut her mouth as she quickly realized how rude she sounded.

"Well, we didn't want to negotiate with them, but they got hold of Kate's parent and her brother. I can't just tell Kate to abandon them."

As all of the girls nodded in understanding, Yuqi suddenly noticed something was a little off.

"How did they get hold of your family like that?" Yuqi curiously asked.

"They kidnapped them from overseas," Kate responded this time.

"Really... Those secret organizations have that long of a reach..." Yuqi murmured to herself.

"Ahem, how did the negotiation go?" Shuli curiously asked.

Seeing both Xiaoyun and Kate fall into silence, all of them immediately understood the meaning except for one individual who was too busy playing with her daughter.

"Why is everyone silent? What happened in the negotiation?" Nami curiously asked as she put Xuanhua down onto her seat.

"All three of them were already dead. The negotiation fell through." Xiaoyun responded.

"Oh... Sorry to hear that."

As Nami realizes the grim atmosphere on the table, she quickly zipped her mouth with food.

"They didn't just let you guys get that info for free, did they?" Yuqi asked, breaking the silence on the table.

Xiaoyun thought for a second, then finally responded.

"I was forced to give them blood for that info——"

"You what!"

Tianci's sudden outburst made everyone on the table flinch a little, and Bingbing and Wenwen burst into tears.

"Tianci!"

Wuli irritably looked back at her as she gently patted Bingbing's back, with Shuli doing the same to Wenwen.

"Sorry."

As Tianci kept her mouth shut, Anna picked up the slack and asked the question that everyone wanted to know.

"Xiaoyun, you actually gave them your blood?"

Before Xiaoyun could answer, Kate looked down to the ground in shame, feeling an overwhelming guilt in her heart.

"Here's the thing, I did give them blood. But it wasn't my blood."

"What?"

As Lily let out a confused comment, everyone looked just as confused as her.

But no one was more confused than Kate, who had already been informed earlier by Xiaoyun in the shower.

"Think about it. Do I really look that stupid enough to give them my actual blood?"

"What do you mean by that? How did you trick them?" Tianci curiously asked.

"It's very simple... Imagine, they draw my blood right from my arm with a needle, right?"

All of the girls nodded, watching Xiaoyun use his hand movement to describe the whole process.

"But rather than my blood being drawn out, I switched my internal blood into Yezi's blood——"

"That's physically impossible. You would die over that." Leyan immediately argued back.

"What can I say other than I'm just built differently?"

All of the girls rolled their eyes as Xiaoyun shrugged his shoulder. But soon, they noticed the change on Kate's face.

"Kate, are you okay?" Yueyue asked curiously, seeing her staring at the table the whole time.

"I-I'm fine... Xiaoyun, you didn't tell me this earlier." Kate asked with a hint of irritation in her voice.

"I just thought you might need a little more time to get over the loss first," Xiaoyun replied, letting out a little smile.

"You... Whatever."

As the sad look on Kate's face disappeared, everyone gave him a little thumbs up on the side.

The next day...

When Xiaoyun woke up from the bed, he could feel a warm body resting almost directly on top of him.

Without opening his eyes, he already knew who it was as he thought back to what happened last night.

All of the girls decided to give Kate and Xiaoyun some alone time together, opting to sleep in their own bedroom.

"Hm... Stop it... Let me rest a little..."

As Kate murmured unconsciously in her sleep, Xiaoyun's mind was thinking back to what they said in the shower.

They both decided to remove all the sneaking-in and fighting parts of the story and only maintain the negotiation part.

In hindsight, both of them realized how stupid their plans were once they actually discussed them.

Both of their rationality was thrown out the window, being controlled by their emotion to go through with that suicidal original plan.

"Hm... Stoppp."

Kate's whisper snapped Xiaoyun back into the moment as he felt a warm flesh surrounding his precious part down below.

"Kate, wake up. It's already nine o'clock in the morning."

As Xiaoyun gently shook her onto her elbow, she finally slowly opened her eyes.

"Hmm...? Ah!——What am I doing here?"

"You forget everything we did last night, wifey?" Xiaoyun gently asked as he brushed his hand over his hair.

"I-I..."

Kate's face blushed red as memories started to flood into her brain, but a sudden motion quickly interrupted it.

"Geez, you're so wet down here," Xiaoyun commented, moving his hip a little further inside.

"Shut up."

Seeing her shyly trying to push him away, Xiaoyun's sudden pull forced her to collapse onto his chest.

"Let's do round two——"

"Wait——Hm!"

"You two going to work or not?"

As Anna suddenly opened the door, the two of them immediately froze in place before Kate pushed Xiaoyun away.

"I-I'll be right there!"

Kate quickly got out of the bed fully naked, grabbing her pajamas from the floor before running out of the room.

"What are you looking at?"

"Looking at my Meine Frau."

Anna's face immediately started to blush more and more red until she ran straight out of the bedroom just like the earlier guest.

"Huh? Did I learned the wrong German word?" Xiaoyun wondered as he slowly got up from the bed.

As Xiaoyun headed over to his closet, he grabbed a fresh pair of clothes before walking over to the remaining section of his old office.

Sitting down in his office chair, he felt a little exhausted despite having already slept for an entire night.

Hints of headaches were hitting him in small, little waves. Thinking back, it had started all the way back when those doctors first drew his blood.

The moment he had nothing to distract himself with, the pain started to become increasingly irritating.

"Is the side effect really that long?"

Xiaoyun murmured to himself as he tried to use his power to flush out every remaining old blood in his body.

---

After ten minutes of trying to self-cleanse all the remaining old blood, he was able to concrete all of it into his arms.

It was as far as he could go, as any further pushes to clear the remaining were sending him headache after headache.

A loud bang noise could be heard, collapsing onto the table as he lost control of the corrupted arm.

"Xiaoyun, you okay?"

"I'm fine. I'm just thinking about stuff in Guangzhou."

Leyan's noise immediately made Xiaoyun sit back up, swiftly putting his jacket on fully one-handed.

"You sure? Your face looked a little pale right now."

As Leyan's footsteps get louder and louder, Xiaoyun quickly ends his attempt to eradicate the remaining blood.

Within seconds, the right arm fell back into his full control as if nothing had happened, but the small headache lingered.

"Really? My face looks pale. It's probably because I stayed up so late the last few days——"

The moment Xiaoyun tried to create a mirror in front of him, a rush of headache instantly sent him down onto the table.

"Xiaoyun!"

"I-I'm fine. It's just a little side effect of using someone's blood... I just need a little time——"

"No! You're coming to the hospital with me. You're not fine. Stop trying to tough it out."
