Apocalypse: Why did you provoke her? She's a cultivator.

Chapter 4 Don't Mess with Her (Please add to your favorites and read on!)
"Yes, yes, yes!" The man with the buzz cut very sensibly backed away slowly.

Turning around, he saw his three underlings who had followed him still standing there, and he was immediately furious.

"What are you standing there for? Pull that person off the ground and get them out of there."

The man with the buzz cut was so angry that he stopped calling her "Aunt Zhang" and kicked all three of them hard.

Was it easy for him to save their lives?
But these few things are so clueless, they're just staring at whoever they're talking to.

Are you comparing whose eyeballs are bigger?!
If you anger someone, you might lose your life here.

Seeing that the boy with the buzz cut was angry, the third brother reluctantly went forward and dragged Aunt Zhang away.

After walking a distance, someone finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been bothering them.

"Boss, why are you so afraid of that woman?"

"Yeah, boss, you're a level two ability user now, what are you afraid of her for!"

“I’ve heard of this woman. She doesn’t have any special abilities, but her mother has a level one water-based ability.”

"No wonder she was able to stay even without any special abilities; it turns out she was able to stay because of her mother's water-based abilities."

Listening to his third brother's foolish words, he didn't realize the important point of the matter at all.

The man with the buzz cut was so angry that he couldn't help but jump up and give all three of them a flick on the forehead.

"Hey boss, why are you hitting us?"

The third brother covered his head and looked at him in confusion.

"Damn it, you guys almost lost your lives just now, do you know that? If I hadn't been quick-witted, you'd all be lying on the floor by now."

At this moment, the man with the buzz cut wished he had never met these three idiots.

"That's not necessarily true. How could so many of us not be able to beat that woman?" one of them retorted.

The man with the buzz cut glared at them irritably.

"I'm asking you all, how did that woman just cut off Aunt Zhang's arm? Did anyone see it clearly?"

The three younger brothers looked at each other and fell silent.

They didn't actually see how the woman made her move.

In the blink of an eye, Aunt Zhang's arm was gone.

The man with the buzz cut glanced at them and continued, "Not to mention you, even I didn't see it clearly."

"To be honest, if that move had been aimed at me, I would have been completely helpless."

Hearing what the man with the buzz cut said, the three henchmen realized how dangerous the woman was, and they all showed expressions of relief at surviving a close call.

Just then, a weak voice came from the side.

"Wait a minute. You didn't take my arm just now. Could you go back and get my arm first?"

Four pairs of eyes fell on Aunt Zhang's face as she was being carried. The thought that they had almost lost their lives because of her made them all feel a surge of anger.

The man with the buzz cut gritted his teeth and said, "Wasn't it enough that you tricked us once already? Go yourself if you want. You guys put her down and we'll leave."

The following words were spoken to his third younger brother.

Upon hearing this, the third brother immediately and without hesitation let go of her hand.

Aunt Zhang was freed from her restraints and fell flat on her back on the ground. The wound on her shoulder was covered in mud and sand, and she was in so much pain that her face was contorted.

Seeing that the four men with buzz cuts had abandoned her, she couldn't help but scream in pain while also cursing them angrily.

"How dare you treat me like this! When Wu Tong returns, he will absolutely not let you off! You all come back here!"

No matter how much she cursed, the crew-cut man and his companions ignored her and walked further and further away.

Over here, Ye Qiumian filled her stomach and took out spirit stones to begin cultivating.

It's already the third month of the apocalypse, and I've heard that some superhumans with high talent have already reached level four.

However, with her current cultivation level of only the first stage of Qi Refining, her strength is too weak.

In the cultivation world, her cultivation level has reached the Tribulation Transcending stage.

Now that I'm starting to cultivate again, I can say that I no longer have any mental barriers, so my cultivation speed shouldn't be too slow.

Ye Qiumian sat cross-legged, holding a fist-sized top-grade spirit stone in one hand.

There were countless spirit stones in the space, enough for her to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Besides spirit stones, there are also various cultivation techniques, magical artifacts, and spiritual weapons, all of which she collected when she went out to train in the cultivation world.

Therefore, while others were risking their lives for cultivation resources, she possessed enough resources to support a mid-level sect.

Soon, the spiritual energy in Ye Qiu Mian's hand was completely absorbed. Without spiritual energy, the spiritual stone was no different from an ordinary stone.

Ye Qiumian casually tossed the stone in her hand aside and took out a new spirit stone.

Time slipped away quietly, and the night passed quickly.

There were already six stones piled up in front of Ye Qiumian, and her cultivation had broken through to the third level of Qi Refining.

He focused his energy into his dantian, consolidating his cultivation at the perfected third level of the Qi Refining stage.

She had just tried to break through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, but every time she reached a critical moment, it felt like her meridians were about to explode.

It seems that even though her mental state has reached the Tribulation Transcending stage, her body is still unable to contain the vast spiritual energy in a short period of time.

She slowly opened her eyes, took a big bite of a white pear.

Haste makes waste; let's be down-to-earth and take it one step at a time.

Thinking this, Ye Qiumian took a big bite of the white pear, but before she could swallow it, an uninvited guest appeared at the door.

"We received a notification this morning that the team needs to depart for Lincheng as soon as possible. You should quickly pack your things and come out to assemble."

Ye Chaoxing stood arrogantly at the door, looking at Ye Qiumian with disdain.

When he saw the white pear in her hand, anger suddenly flared in his narrow eyes.

Where did you get the fruit?

He charged forward angrily, yelling, "You filthy bitch, you secretly ate the fruit yourself! I'll kill you!"

However, before he could even get close to Ye Qiumian, he stopped in his tracks and collapsed to the ground.

A long, bloody gash appeared on his neck.

At this moment, fresh blood was gushing out of the wound.

Ye Chaoxing looked at Ye Qiumian in disbelief, as if he wanted to say something.

But the words I wanted to say came out as a series of cracking and popping sounds from the wound on my neck.

Even in death, he did not close his eyes, which were filled with resentment.

Ye Qiu Mian didn't even glance at him. After finishing the last bite of the white pear, she casually tossed the core aside.

Lincheng?

Didn't that person say yesterday that Wu Tong was in Lincheng?

Since that's the case, let's go to Lincheng.

She's only at the fourth level of Qi Refining and can't fly on a sword yet, so she'll just have to go with those people.

Ye Qiu Mian looked around the room and saw that there wasn't much to tidy up.

All the important cultivation supplies are in the space.

***
When we arrived at the meeting point, two-thirds of the people were already there.

Ye Qiumian found a place to sit and wait for departure.

The man with the buzz cut noticed Ye Qiu Mian from afar.

Upon seeing her, he quickly instructed the people around him not to provoke her.

"Remember, all of you stay away from her, or you won't even know how you died, understand?"

The others didn't understand why their boss was so afraid of a woman.

But since the boss said not to mess with her, they would just listen.

Along the way, they avoided many crises because they listened to their leader.

"Understood, we promise we won't provoke her."

One of them patted his partner on the shoulder and said confidently, "Don't worry, you can't go wrong by listening to the boss."

As the group was talking, an angry voice suddenly rang out from the crowd.

"Ye Qiumian, come out here!"

"Ye Qiumian! Get out here!"

When Ye Chaoxing did not return for a long time, Ye's mother went to the room where Ye Qiumian lived.

She then discovered that her beloved son had been brutally murdered in the house.

Ye Qiumian has also disappeared without a trace.
