Post-Apocalyptic: Unlimited Resources, Neighbor's Wife and Sister Beg for the Door to Open

Chapter 140 He truly deserved to die; everything was already rehearsed! (Please continue reading)

Upon hearing this, Ye Nantian was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

He wasn't senile; on the contrary, he understood some things and human relationships much better than Ye Hongxiu.

From their conversation just now, he had figured out Qi Haoran's plan.

Now that their ideas have been exposed, they're still spouting nonsense here!

He pointed at Qi Haoran's nose and cursed:

"I have never seen such a shameless person!"

"Get out of here."

"Otherwise, don't blame me for getting rough with you!"

Upon hearing this, Qi Haoran's smile vanished, and his expression darkened.

"Uncle, I genuinely like Hongxiu. Are you trying to embarrass me by not giving me any face? Do you think I can't do anything about you?"

"I am no match for the three of you."

"But don't forget, Hongxiu is already injured."

"If the two of you go out to find supplies, you'll leave her all alone in the base."

“If one of you two stays behind to protect her, then your safety cannot be guaranteed, no matter which one of you is left alone.”

"They may very well encounter danger, just like Hongxiu."

"Won't Hongxiu still need to rely on me then?"

"Why don't you just agree to my marriage with her now? It would be better for everyone."

Ye Nan was so angry that he was about to continue cursing.

But Ye Hongxiu stopped her.

She looked at Qi Haoran with a chilling gaze.

“I always felt that there was something wrong with the way those bugs gathered, and you just happened to appear at that moment.”

"Did you use some means to put me in danger?!"

Hearing her say that, Qi Haoran subconsciously lowered his head guiltily.

After realizing what had happened, he forced himself to calm down and said stiffly:

"of course not."

"If I wanted to harm you, would I still do it?"

"If you think I did that to play the hero and save the damsel in distress, then in the end I was no match for them and had to run for my life, didn't I?"

"No matter what, this guess is invalid."

In the end, it seems even he himself came to believe it.

Ye Hongxiu being surrounded by the insect swarm was indeed caused by him.

He originally intended to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, but he didn't expect things to escalate so much that he couldn't save her at all. He could only worry about himself first and try to escape.

He was only a third-tier ability user, and if he wanted to get his hands on Ye Hongxiu, a fourth-tier ability user, he would naturally have to use some methods.

Ye Hongxiu founded the Sword Seeking Pavilion, which has a considerable number of members.

In addition, with her parents being both third-tier ability users, marrying her would truly provide a solid foundation for future success.

Qi Haoran's words did make some sense, and Ye Nantian and Yu Qiao also looked puzzled.

But Ye Hongxiu did not believe him.

She thought of another thing Lu Zheng had given her: the Evil Thought Bracelet.

It stimulates and releases the perception of evil thoughts.

Instantly, Ye Hongxiu saw a dense red light emanating from Qi Haoran's body, within which black light was mixed.

Red light signifies ill intent, while black light indicates that the other party has already developed murderous intent towards you.

She had no doubt about what Lu Zheng gave her.

After confirming that Qi Haoran intended to kill her, she decisively activated the teleportation talisman.

In an instant, she appeared behind Qi Haoran.

A sword was drawn and pierced his chest directly from behind.

Qi Haoran never got to see her face again before her body fell into a pool of blood.

The daughter's sudden outburst and murder left Ye Nantian and Yu Qiao somewhat at a loss.

Although they had seen Ye Hongxiu kill monsters before, this was the first time they had ever killed someone.

This scene left them somewhat at a loss.

"Girl, why did you suddenly kill him?"

Yu Qiao couldn't help but ask.

Ye Hongxiu raised her wrist.

"This is called the Evil Thought Bracelet, and it was given to me by Lu Zheng." "It can help me see the evil thoughts people around me have towards me. Just now, I saw that Qi Haoran had murderous intent towards me."

"Considering what happened today, he definitely did it on purpose to harm me."

"He deserves to die!"

Yu Qiao looked at Ye Hongxiu and nodded, saying:

"Yes, he deserves to die."

"This thing is great! With this, you can detect if someone wants to ambush you in advance."

Ye Hongxiu nodded.

"It's not just people."

“Insects and those night demons can also harbor evil intentions, and in a purer form.”

"It can provide early warnings, keeping me away from danger."

"Absorbing evil thoughts can also enhance my mental strength."

"When I see him next time, I'll ask each of you for one too."

Yu Qiao quickly nodded with a smile.

"Okay, this is good."

"Take a lot of those strengthening pills too. We're practically family now, so don't be polite with him."

Seeing this, Ye Nantian couldn't help but glare at her.

"You bribed me with just this little bit of stuff?"

"It's as if you're in such a hurry to marry off your daughter."

"I don't want my daughter to leave."

Yu Qiao glanced at the several unopened bottles of Moutai on the table, then went over and grabbed two bottles.

"Then you shouldn't drink it."

Ye Nantian immediately stepped forward and grabbed him.

"Hey! Just talk, why did you touch my wine?"

Seeing this, Ye Hongxiu couldn't help but shake her head with a smile, walked out of the room, found two of her subordinates, and carried Qi Haoran's body out.

In such a large base, it's normal for a few people to die.

Unless it's the safe zone above, no one cares if hundreds of people die in the refugee camps outside.

This is also why many people want to live in the air safety zone.

Civilized people want to live orderly lives in the sunlight, while only rats and poisonous snakes prefer to crawl in the shadows.

Meanwhile, Lu Zheng returned to the cruise ship.

He intended to distribute the substitute soul lamps directly, but at that moment Tao Yingshi came over and told him something.

"Honey, we've almost finished learning the dance."

"You set a date and bring out the prizes, then we can start the competition!"

Lu Zheng then remembered that there was such a thing.

But it seems like only a few days have passed, and they've already finished rehearsing?
It can only be said that after taking the strengthening pills, these people's physical coordination has indeed improved significantly.

He felt this deeply.

Lu Zheng smiled and nodded.

"Let's set it for tomorrow night then!"

"Let's use this as the prize."

As he spoke, he took out a substitute soul lamp.

Tao Yingshi and the others looked at the object with curiosity and some doubt.

Lu Zheng explained the uses of this treasure, and immediately, everyone looked at the lamp with longing.

After all, no one would want to have one or even many more lives.

Not only yourself, but your family members need it too.

Lu Zheng was satisfied with everyone's reaction.

He smiled and said:
"The winning individuals and groups in this dance competition will be given priority to receive the Soul Lamp of Substitute Death, and will also be awarded an additional batch of Strengthening Pills."

"However, this time each group can have a maximum of four people, no more than that."

"Six individuals will be selected as the winners."

"That means a maximum of ten will be issued. Whoever gets one first will depend on their performance."

Upon hearing this, many girls showed expressions of eager anticipation.

Clearly, they all genuinely wanted to fight for this Soul Lamp of Death.
