Torrential black rain washed over the earth, and cold winds whipped up mud and water, raging wildly.

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, covered in mud, dressed in tattered clothes, and with a weathered and dejected face, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel a sense of emotion.

He never imagined that this seemingly disheveled and destitute man was actually Gong Pengliang, the reigning emperor who ruled the entire Ze Kingdom.

Seeing the other person's miserable and helpless appearance, Chen Yang couldn't help but feel a pang of pity.

However, he had important matters on his mind. His trip to Ze Kingdom was solely for business with the Kunze Sect. The situation was urgent, and he had no time to meddle in other people's grudges and tribulations.

Chen Yang bowed slightly to Gong Pengliang, his expression calm and his tone sincere: "So it is His Majesty of Ze Kingdom. I have come to Ze Kingdom to attend to important matters at Kunze Sect immediately. Time is of the essence, and I cannot afford to cause any further trouble. I hope Your Majesty will understand."

Upon hearing this, the hope that had just ignited in Gong Pengliang's eyes instantly dimmed, all the light in his eyes faded, and he was filled with despair and dejection.

Unwilling to give up the last chance for the people of Zeguo, he took a step forward, bent his knees, and knelt straight down in the muddy rain, his body trembling slightly from extreme helplessness.

"Senior!" Gong Pengliang looked up at Chen Yang, his eyes red-rimmed, his voice choked with emotion and earnest. "Your cultivation is boundless, your strength unparalleled! The land is now ravaged by death and death, overrun by hordes of zombies. Only you, Senior, can save the land from this annihilation! I beg you, Senior, to lend a helping hand!"

Chen Yang deftly dodged the attack, remaining completely unaffected by the grand gesture, his expression unchanged: "Your Majesty, in principle, given the devastation suffered by Ze Kingdom, the Golden Core cultivators of the Kunze Sect, stationed on its homeland, should have descended to quell the chaos. Why is it that only Your Majesty remains, struggling to hold the fort?"

Gong Pengliang slowly shook his head, let out a long sigh, his face full of helplessness and bitterness: "This junior has already gone up the mountain to ask Senior Feng Qingyu for help. As a Golden Core cultivator, he has always been the guardian deity of my Ze Kingdom, protecting the peace of this region."

"However, this time, the strange black rain has descended and the zombie horde has appeared. Kunze Sect is also imprisoned by strange black clouds, and Senior Feng himself is also suffering from strange evil energy and is unwell. It's not that he is unwilling to take action, but that he is unable to go down the mountain."

"Senior Feng stated that only if we lure all the golden-haired zombies to the gate of Kunze Sect can he take action to wipe them out at once. There is no other way."

Chen Yang was filled with doubt upon hearing this, and he couldn't understand why this Golden Core cultivator was imprisoned by a mere area of ​​heaven and earth, unable to even descend the mountain.

He shook his head slightly and declined again: "Your Majesty, I am truly sorry, but I do have limited time. There are hundreds of millions of zombies roaming the land. Even if I wanted to help, it would take me three to five years to completely eradicate the chaos and turn the tide."

Gong Pengliang was startled, then quickly looked up, a glimmer of light rekindling in his eyes, and said urgently, "If you are worried about time, senior, you can rest assured!"

"Our Zeguo hunting team has been investigating for many years and has already figured out the details of all the zombies! Our specially crafted flying arrows, while unable to deal with the powerful golden-haired zombies, can easily kill ordinary mutated cultivator zombies."

"More importantly, we have thoroughly investigated and recorded all the hiding places of the golden-haired zombies! Thanks to this continuous heavy rain, all the golden-haired zombies have broken free of their camouflage and revealed their true forms, no longer disguised as ordinary cultivators!"

"The territory of Zeguo is not vast. As long as you, senior, eliminate the golden-haired zombies, it will take a maximum of seven days to completely eradicate this top-level scourge of the land! The remaining ordinary zombie hordes can be handled entirely by our hunting team. You don't need to expend any effort on them!"

Chen Yang's eyes flickered slightly, and a strong interest instantly arose in his heart.

He had always coveted the treasure on the golden-haired zombie!

Each golden-haired zombie not only provides him with a massive amount of spiritual energy, but is also the only source of stable production of extradimensional fragments.

These rare treasures have become increasingly precious and scarce as his cultivation level has increased and his techniques have advanced.

In the past, the golden-haired zombie would hide among the crowd, indistinguishable from ordinary cultivators, making it impossible to distinguish or hunt. Even if he wanted to search for it, he simply had nowhere to start.

But today, with the heavy rain, all the golden-haired zombies were forced to reveal themselves. With the official team from Zeguo guiding the way and providing precise location, he was spared the endless search. It was an excellent opportunity delivered right to his doorstep!

Although he was already very tempted, Chen Yang remained calm and composed, and did not immediately agree. He simply nodded slightly: "If it is really as you say, then this matter is worth considering."

Upon seeing Chen Yang relent, Gong Pengliang was overjoyed, his body trembling slightly with excitement. He quickly cupped his hands in greeting, saying, "Senior, whatever your request, the entire Ze Kingdom will obey and do its utmost to fulfill it!"

Chen Yang smiled faintly, his tone casual: "There aren't any demanding requirements. Hunting golden-haired zombies is extremely taxing, draining my energy and mental strength. You just need to prepare a large amount of spirit stones as payment."

Gong Pengliang was slightly taken aback, never expecting Chen Yang's request to be so simple. Overjoyed, he quickly replied, "Senior, rest assured! The spiritual energy in Zeguo is now polluted and shrouded in black rain, rendering spirit stones useless! We will supply you with as much as you desire, offering our entire stockpile!"

"The more the better," Chen Yang said bluntly. "Have someone prepare spirit stones immediately, and at the same time, we'll set off right away to take me to all the hiding places of the golden-haired zombies."

Gong Pengliang was filled with excitement and quickly stood up, clasping his hands in a fist salute: "Senior, please rest assured! Golden-haired zombies are usually solitary and scattered, rarely gathering in groups. Just now, I personally witnessed Senior single-handedly kill three golden-haired zombies in an instant. This extermination will be absolutely safe and without any danger!"

Chen Yang waved his hand casually, his tone brimming with extreme composure and confidence: "It's alright. Killing one is killing, killing ten is killing. If I can gather all the golden-haired zombies in one place, it will save me from running around and be more efficient."

Upon hearing this, Gong Pengliang was instantly dumbfounded, his mouth agape, his face filled with shock.

He had lived for hundreds of years and had never seen such an arrogant and self-confident person!

Each mature golden-haired zombie possesses peak combat power at the Divine Power Realm. They are immortal, fearless, painless, and wield bizarre supernatural abilities, making them both offensive and defensive, and extremely difficult to deal with.

Even a small group of three to five zombies can easily overwhelm a group of cultivators at the Divine Power Realm. Even Feng Qingyu, a Golden Core expert from the Kunze Sect, could only avoid their sharp edge and was helpless when faced with a group of seven or eight golden-haired zombies!

But Chen Yang, standing right in front of him, actually wished that all the golden-haired zombies would gather in one place!

Gong Pengliang swallowed hard, looking at Chen Yang's confident demeanor, and knew that the other party definitely had some incredible trump card, and was not just bluffing.

Without hesitation, he immediately turned to his subordinates and sternly ordered, "Quickly retrieve the blood and internal organs of the golden-haired zombie. Use these as bait to travel to various parts of the swamp!"

"Lure all the hidden golden-haired zombies to one place! I will follow my seniors to clear them out along the way. Within seven days, we must completely eradicate all the golden-haired zombie demons from the swamp!"

Upon hearing this, the cultivators in the hunting squad all had a brilliant light in their eyes, and their morale was instantly boosted!
