I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Those horns don't look like something a human should have.

"Um... do we know each other?"

After a long silence, Yan Ziming finally managed to ask a question.

She didn't realize how trembling her voice was; to outsiders, it sounded like she was shaking uncontrollably.

Seeing that the little girl still didn't react, Yan Ziming quickly called out to Mo Xin in his mind, asking Liu Mengxian to come over. This little girl gave him a terrifying feeling; she was definitely a being beyond the ninth rank!

The occasional wisp of pressure emanating from her uncle, Yan Shan, was nothing special to her, which meant that this little girl possessed combat power at least comparable to Yan Shan's!

[Mo Xin, my little loli, give me some reaction, please!!!!]

Perhaps because Mo Xin had exhausted herself today, she must have fallen into a deep sleep, trying to prepare for the next battle.

"What is your name...?"

Yan Ziming's face was stiff as he forced a smile and asked, but the expression on his face should not be called a smile; it was more like a funeral.

She didn't know how she had been targeted by such a terrifying being, but for the time being, the other party didn't seem to want to harm her.

So Yan Ziming put on a flattering act, after all, everything is negotiable, and Yan Ziming didn't want to die young, there were still so many beautiful girls in the world waiting for her to woo.

"Qing." The little girl uttered a single word, as if endless echoes reverberated within her body, causing Yan Ziming's blood to surge, his vision to blur, and his face to flush slightly.

She said 'Qing,' is that her name?

After asking her name, Qing didn't say anything more, just staring blankly at Yan Ziming, as if considering how to treat her.

Just as Yan Ziming was about to continue the conversation, her phone rang, breaking the deathly silence.

Yan Ziming chuckled dryly and asked, "Uh... is it convenient for me to take a call...? Oh well, it's okay, it's okay, forget I said anything."

Under Qing's intimidating gaze, Yan Ziming finally hung up the phone and chose to avoid answering.

Then, another unexpected event occurred.

The stripes on Yan Ziming's feet came back to life, emitting a faint purplish-black light. The moment Qing saw this light, her eyes changed.

"...Indeed, it would have been better if you had died."

The struggle in his eyes vanished, and with a single finger pointing at her, Yan Ziming felt as if his soul was being obliterated. He exerted all his strength and did something he had never tried before.

puff-

A large burst of blood erupted from Yan Ziming's left chest, gushing out a distance of seven or eight meters, a terrifying sight.

It wasn't just blood that was spraying out, but also bits and pieces of blue-purple debris.

"Not dead?" Just as Qing was about to make another move after realizing that Yan Ziming's life signs were still strong, a third party broke into the 'no man's land' she had set up.

Or rather, it was completely shattered.

"How dare you! You even dare to touch people from our own country!"

Yan Shan's furious voice echoed endlessly, and a light of earthy yellow color, slightly mixed with the other four elements, poured down, causing the asphalt road to collapse instantly. An aura that transcended human limits surged up, and Qing's expression changed drastically!

"Sequence level?!"

She also released her own aura, and a cyan-gold light clashed with it, the blazing light shining through the ages, causing the heavens and earth to tremble, as if a sovereign had descended.

"Sequence level?!" Yan Shan also expressed the same surprise. Compared with this mysterious little girl, his own realm was actually being suppressed!

Looking back at Yan Ziming, who was still barely able to stand, Yan Shan decided to take her away first, as it would be unwise to fight to the death here.

Chapter Forty Arrives Just in Time

Yan Shan flashed to Yan Zimo's side and asked in a deep voice, "How are you? Can you still walk?"

"Cough cough, damn, I won't die..."

Yan Ziming coughed up a mouthful of blood. On her left chest, there was a gap the size of a fingertip, blocked by a thin, bluish-purple membrane. Within it, endless lightning elements flowed, mysterious and dazzling.

When Qing pointed at her just now, Yan Ziming felt a spasmodic pain in her heart. She immediately concluded that Qing's target was her heart!

This result horrified her; if her heart had been ruptured, she would have been dead!

Unless a level nine healer treats her within five minutes.

But how could this be?! There isn't a single ninth-level healer in the entire world; all that's left for her is to wait for death.

In order to survive, Yan Zimo chose an unprecedented attempt—to elementalize her own heart.

It was this first attempt that saved her from certain death; she only had her skin pierced, while her heart, the body's blood center, remained unharmed.

She narrowly escaped death; her life hung by a thread.

"You retreat first, I'll hold that guy off for now."

Yan Shan stared at Qing with a solemn expression, not daring to look away for even a moment.

In his eyes, the destructive power possessed by this seemingly harmless little girl was almost equivalent to the explosion of a megaton nuclear bomb. If it were unleashed at full power, the entire Seventh District would be hard-pressed to escape unscathed.

Originally, he only infiltrated to secretly protect Jiang Lan's safe return to the country. After all, relying on Mo Sheng alone was not enough to completely suppress those demons and monsters. He had to pay attention to the contestants and also take care of Jiang Lan's safety, so there would always be some oversights.

To prevent this from happening, Yan Shan infiltrated the United States first and waited in District Seven.

Unexpectedly, Mo Sheng called and said that his troublesome niece had gone missing and that her cell phone signal was nearby, so Yan Shan rushed over without stopping.

Upon arrival, they were confronted with such a terrifying being.

"I never expected there to be a Sequence-level being. Are you really human?"

Qing's eyebrows were slightly curved, and his bright yellow eyes contained a boundless light, like two suns illuminating the entire street.

"Heh, I am a genuine human being, but what about you?" Yan Shan sneered.

The fact that someone else in the world could reach the Sequence Level besides him is absolutely groundbreaking news for him and the whole world.

Yan Shan was able to break through because of his special abilities and his two encounters with sequence-level crystal cores. What about her?

The idea that a little girl who had never heard of him possessed power comparable to his was simply too far-fetched.

Therefore, Yan Shan concluded that the little girl might not be human, which would explain why he had never heard of her before.

Qing didn't speak, but instead rushed into Yan Shan's domain. The cyan-gold light was like a sharp sword, splitting a path that could not be blocked, reaching Yan Zimo directly, determined to kill her.

The human in front of her was enough to cause her a lot of trouble. Moreover, there was more than one ninth-level being in this city. If they all joined forces, even she wasn't confident that she could escape unscathed.

"drink--!"

Yan Shan's arms had transformed into the left and right arms of a mountain unicorn. His eyes were fiery red, his breathing was like a thunderous symphony, and his flesh and blood shone brightly, illuminating mountains and rivers. The sound of his blood surging through his veins was like the thumping of drums, and his aura was unparalleled.

This is his strongest form in human form, the pinnacle of his power. If he takes another step forward, he will become a mountain unicorn, possessing full-fledged combat power at the Rank 1 level!

In this state, he was just standing there, and everything around him seemed about to explode; the oppressive atmosphere made it hard to breathe.

Facing the approaching Qing, Yan Shan clenched his right fist and slowly extended it forward. The space cracked inch by inch, revealing countless tiny black fissures, which then healed again under the pressure of his fist, repeating this process endlessly.

This punch was very slow, like an old man practicing Tai Chi. It looked like even a three-year-old child could catch it, but it gave people the feeling that there was nowhere to hide. As long as Qing continued to move forward, he would inevitably be hit.

Yan Shan was forcing her to retreat. Injuring an opponent of this level was not something that could be done in a short time. Her target was Yan Ziming, so she just needed to make sure that Qing could not harm Yan Ziming.

Qing did just that, fearlessly unleashing his overwhelming fist, raising his small pink fist that was completely disproportionate to Yan Shan's large fist, and went to meet him head-on.

During this process, the moon and stars trembled with these fluctuations, which was extremely terrifying.

boom--

An incredibly loud roar echoed throughout the night, shattering all the glass in the seventh district. Those who had been awakened earlier by Yan Shan's shout were even more frightened, cowering in fear and afraid to move.

Rather, it would be more accurate to say that they were unable to move due to the oppressive aura of the two peerless experts, and were paralyzed on the spot.

Fortunately, Yan Shan considered the people in all directions and used his domain to stabilize all the shockwaves. Otherwise, this one shockwave alone would have been enough to cause a small part of the Seventh District to collapse, and countless residents would have lost their lives.

bang bang bang bang bang

In a direct confrontation, Yan Shan retreated five steps, shattering the boundless ground. His weight was as heavy as a mountain, yet he remained standing in place, just like the boundless mountains and rivers, unharmed.

Qing was also blasted back three steps, secretly shocked. This human in front of him did indeed have the combat power of a sequence-level being. Something big was about to happen to Blue Star!

"Didn't I tell you to leave? Hurry up!"

Without Yan Shan turning around, he could tell from his senses that Yan Zimo was still behind him and hadn't moved. Yan Shan panicked. Her target was him, and she wouldn't stop as long as he was here!

Yan Ziming pointed at Qing and said confidently, "No, there's no need to run. It's her who should be running."

It was at this moment that one side of the sky suddenly lit up. At first glance, it was just a line, but later it was as if a divine eye that blotted out the sky had opened, coldly and mercilessly watching over the people below.

As you get closer, you'll discover that it's not the eye of a god, but a sea of ​​lightning that has taken on the function of a god!

Endless lightning bolts swept through the area, like the light of judgment, completely illuminating the Seventh District. The vast expanse stretched as far as the eye could see, revealing the current appearance of the Seventh District.

Qing moved swiftly, knowing that someone she couldn't afford to offend had arrived. She flew into the air and exploded with a bang!

There was no scene of blood and gore; instead, an endless thick fog exploded, instantly enveloping the entire Seventh District. Nothing could be seen, directions were lost, and even superpowers were suppressed.

At that moment, a vast expanse of lightning suddenly reached the sky above the seventh district, where a figure as ethereal as a fairy could be vaguely seen dancing gracefully.

"Thunder dances and the sky collapses."

This sentence was like the most terrifying incantation, echoing throughout the universe. In an instant, wind and thunder roared, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and the whole world was filled with its light. It fell down densely, like a vast ocean crashing on the shore, its divine power overwhelming and sweeping across the nine heavens!

Lightning bolts struck one after another, and the mist was quickly dispelled by the barrage of lightning. For a moment, the interior of the Seventh District seemed to be shrouded in a purple aura, stretching for three thousand miles.

Lei Hai vanished in an instant, and in contrast, a stunningly beautiful figure appeared beside Yan Ziming, placing a hand on Yan Ziming's heart.
