In a frigid apocalypse, I went on a shopping spree with the reborn.

Jiang Qingyue stared at Wang Dawei, who was smug and seemed to have her figured out, and scoffed, "Wang Dawei, you've been secretly spying on me for so many years, how come you still don't understand our Jiang family at all?"

"What do you mean?" Wang Dawei had a bad feeling, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that the more Jiang Qing valued family ties, the better. The more she valued family ties, the more he would have to beg her.

"What I mean is that people from my Jiang family don't like to endure humiliation. I was raised with the love of my mother and father. If they knew that I had suffered so much humiliation to resurrect them, they would slap me across the face when they woke up."

Wang Dawei choked for a moment: "...And what about you? They would rather not be resurrected than have you humiliated. As their daughter, you should repay such good parents even more. Otherwise, what's the point of giving birth to you and raising you?"

"They gave birth to me because they love me and want me to enjoy a good life. What else could it be for?"

Wang Dawei countered, "Of course, raising children is for providing for old age."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingyue looked at Wang Dawei strangely and reminded him, "Your parents are frozen stiff in bed."

"They deserve it!" Wang Dawei roared, his eyes bloodshot. "Those two old bastards always favor the second son, while I, the eldest son, am treated like I was adopted..."

Jiang Qingyue was not interested in their family's affairs. Seeing that Wang Dawei was immersed in grief and indignation, she decisively took action, first breaking his two arms and two legs, and then dislocating his jaw.

She didn't have Long Jiuxing's skills; she relied entirely on brute force to pull and yank, her movements as fast as lightning.

Before Wang Dawei could recover from his grief and anger, he was already half-dead and paralyzed on the ground.

Jiang Qingyue tried to remove the quantum computer, but failed.

Wang Dawei's face contorted in pain. He saw Jiang Qingyue forcibly pulling at the quantum computer, her eyes filled with mockery. The quantum computer would automatically attach to the user's wrist, making it impossible to pull it off.

The next moment, Jiang Qingyue took out a wood-chopping knife from his spatial storage.

"Waaaaah~" Wang Dawei shook his head in terror.

It still couldn't stop Jiang Qingyue from bringing down the knife.

Having simply and directly obtained the quantum computer, without any prompting from Xiao Yi, Jiang Qingyue proactively asked, "Can it be integrated?"

[Reporting to Master, the owner of the quantum computer is still alive. It is not a wild quantum computer and cannot be fused with.]

"Can its owner still use it?"

[Placing it in a spatial dimension can isolate the connection between the quantum computer and its owner.]

It's a bit of a pity that they can't merge. Jiang Qingyue clicked to take a look, and the host displayed on it was Wang Xiaowei.

In other words, the original owner of this quantum computer was Wang Dawei's younger brother.

"Interesting." Jiang Qingyue rubbed the quantum computer in his hand.

She wasn't sure if it was because Wang Dawei had possessed her body and become the holder that the quantum computer wouldn't be considered wild if Wang Dawei didn't die.

Or perhaps the owner of this body, Wang Xiaowei, is not truly dead, and his soul is still somewhere within this body, which is why the quantum computer cannot be integrated.

But no matter what, it's always the right thing to put the quantum computer in space to isolate it from communication.

After throwing it into the space, Jiang Qingyue smiled as she looked at the terrified Wang Dawei.

"I thought you had some tricks up your sleeve. I was afraid you would run away, so I pulled a surprise attack. If I had known it was this simple, I wouldn't have wasted my breath on you."

"I'm done for. You can forget about ever getting back to your parents." Wang Dawei mumbled, a hint of pleasure flashing across his distorted face.

He felt his life rapidly draining away with his blood, but he wasn't afraid; on the contrary, he felt quite exhilarated.

In the vast sea of ​​people, once he possesses another person, it will be like finding a needle in a haystack for Jiang Qingyue to find him.

He will certainly be more cautious than this time.

"It seems you, a reborn person, don't know much." Jiang Qingyue smiled and took out a plant doctor's essence.

Looking at the crystal-clear essence, Wang Dawei guessed it.

Jiang Qingyue had previously issued a bounty, offering the Plant Doctor Essence as a reward for purchasing the Corpse King. He knew that the Plant Doctor was in Jiang Qingyue's possession, but why would he give it to him?

Who would give such a precious item to someone else?

Wouldn't it be better to sell them for money and exchange them for a large amount of trading coins and crystal cores?

Wait a minute, Wang Dawei's mind, which was already blurred with pain, suddenly thought of a terrible possibility: Could it be... that this woman doesn't want him to die!

Instantly, Wang Dawei's pupils contracted, and the terror on his face was several times greater than before.

His expression confirmed Jiang Qingyue's guess: "You are not afraid of death, but you are afraid of living, which means that your ability to possess others can only be used after death."

"Instead of being able to possess whomever you want while they're alive, right?"

"So, if you're left to live in a perpetual state of half-death, then this ability becomes unusable?"

"Waaaaah~" Wang Dawei shook his head in terror, making whimpering sounds.

He struggled to move his body, trying to fall off the cliff.

He just wanted to kill himself right now, otherwise he would never die if he fell into Jiang Qingyue's hands.

He had heard rumors about how powerful the Plant Doctor's effects were; it could condense nine essences every day, more than Jiang Qingyue could possibly use up, enough to keep him hanging on in a half-dead state forever.

This is definitely not what he wanted.

"It's too late to realize now." Jiang Qingyue grabbed his hair, stuffed the plant doctor essence into his throat, lifted him up and threw him onto a relatively flat slope.

They took out an iron chain and tied the person up.

Under the powerful effects of the plant doctor's essence, Wang Dawei's half-crippled body was restored to normal in no time, and even his jaw, which had been brutally removed, returned to normal.

But the pain, and the fear of never dying or escaping, made Wang Dawei even more panicked.

"Jiang, Jiang Qingyue, listen to me, we are not enemies. I admit that I did many things wrong in the past, and I am willing to apologize for all my past actions."

"But listen to my advice: there are never any eternal enemies in this world. Let go of all grudges and cooperate to grow bigger and stronger."

"You are a reincarnated person, and so am I. You have the plant doctor, who is incredibly powerful, and I hold the secret to possession. If we join forces, we will be invincible."

"First, take control of the Eighth Experimental Zone, then march on to other star systems..."

Jiang Qingyue: "That's right, but you've overestimated your role."

"Overestimating?" Wang Dawei smiled confidently. "Do you think you're invincible in the Eighth Experimental Zone? Naïve. You women just have long hair..."

Halfway through his sentence, Wang Dawei stared at Jiang Qingyue's buzz cut and couldn't continue.

"...Anyway, it's a narrow-minded view. Even the strongest person can get hurt. The plant doctor can only heal, not revive. If you are killed in one move, you won't even have time to use the plant doctor's essence."

"I can give you countless lives, much better than your plant doctor."

"Yes," Jiang Qingyue said, "So I'll go easy on you and won't kill you in one go."

As Jiang Qingyue spoke, she made a slash.

With a deafening scream, Wang Dawei's agony echoed through the sky.

"Madman!" He never expected that, during their pleasant conversation, he would be stabbed without any warning.

Does this woman think he's a fish on a chopping board?

Before he could even catch his breath, Jiang Qingyue delivered a second and a third cut... each cut showcasing Jiang Yidao's profound skill.

Jiang Qingyue only asked when Wang Dawei's consciousness began to blur due to the intense pain.

"Is there any way to bring my parents back to life?"

Wang Dawei struggled to lift his eyelids, gritting his teeth and remaining silent.

This is his only use right now. Once he speaks, he's useless, and his fate will be even worse than that of a zombie.

"Ha!" Jiang Qingyue scoffed.

As we all know, when a person is in extreme pain and has lost a lot of blood, logic and reason will all collapse.

Emotions will break down, and the brain simply doesn't have the energy to process new events. In other words, when faced with questions, there's simply not enough time to come up with a reasonable and logically sound lie.

They might subconsciously blurt out answers they already know.

If you ask the same question multiple times, separating and scrambling all the questions, and repeating this process repeatedly, the answer to the same question will always be consistent; that is the correct answer.

Wang Dawei is stubbornly refusing to speak, which clearly shows that he still has a sliver of rationality left.

"Then let's continue."

Jiang Qingyue held the life-saving plant essence in her left hand and a knife in her right.

After a couple of stabs, he'll ask, "Is there any way to bring my parents back to life?"

At first, Wang Dawei could bear it. He thought that he would get used to the pain as he became numb.

As the knife was stabbed again and again, his body began to instinctively feel fear. Even before the knife was raised or lowered, he felt intense pain and began to tremble and curl up uncontrollably.

Only then did he realize that pain could be doubled and that the body could become uncontrollable by the brain.

There's really no such thing as pain; you just get used to it.

My eyelids couldn't stay open any longer, and my numb brain had only one thought: to get it over with.

He answered almost everything Jiang Qingyue asked.

Jiang Qingyue: "Is there any way to bring my parents back to life?"

"In the first district, the Eternal Order Star Court's Executive Division, there is a time machine."

Jiang Qingyue frowned. She didn't even know where the first district was. Wouldn't that mean she would have to wait a very, very long time?

"Is there any other way?"

No, that's all.

"How can I get to the First Experimental Zone?"

"I have no idea."

"In your previous life, which year of the apocalypse did you live in?"

"The sixth year."

In other words, in the sixth year, the First Experimental Zone and their Eighth Zone could not communicate with each other. Jiang Qingyue was very disappointed, but there was no good solution. Wang Dawei only lived to the sixth year, and at that time, the two sides could not communicate with each other. Wang Dawei did not know what happened after that, and it would be pointless to ask.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qingyue asked again, "How did you die?"

"Yu You, it was Yu You who killed me." Wang Dawei broke down, overwhelmed with grief.

In his previous life, he died like a Peking duck; in this life, he'll suffer even more.

He could accept his previous life, but in this life he's a reincarnated protagonist, so how could he be in such a miserable state?

Hearing the name Yu You again, Jiang Qingyue was somewhat dazed, not expecting that this guy had any connection with Wang Dawei.

Why is Yu You's initial combat power so strong?

"I don't know." Wang Dawei's voice trailed off, barely audible.

Seeing that he was about to run out of breath, Jiang Qingyue took out another essence and stuffed it into his mouth.

In no time, the guy recovered completely, but compared to before, he now only felt fear.

Sure enough, once he had recovered, Jiang Qingyue began to demonstrate her swordsmanship to him again.

When he became delirious again due to the excruciating pain, he began to ask questions again.

Why did you kill Long Jiuxing?

"I want to know why her and Yu You's initial combat power values ​​were so high. There must be a secret, and I want to find that secret." Wang Dawei cried as he spoke.

After his rebirth, he didn't plan many major things, and none of them succeeded.

He understands that protagonists have to go through hardships before they succeed, but aren't his hardships a bit too many?

There is no hope of success whatsoever.

What is the background of Long Jiuxing?

"I don't know," Wang Dawei confessed honestly.

Remembering how this guy had once confidently claimed through a megaphone that he knew Long Jiuxing's background, Jiang Qingyue stabbed him again.

"Agh!" Wang Dawei screamed, "I really didn't know that after Long Jiuxing grew up in my previous life, he wasn't human at all, he was more like a machine than a machine."

"She's like a mute; no one has ever heard her speak. She always runs away after killing someone. I don't know much about her."

"However, given her lifelong illness, it's normal that she was abandoned after birth. Even if her parents really knew she had become a strong person, they would be hiding too much to dare to come forward and claim kinship. She's inhuman."

Jiang Qingyue was silent for a while, recalling when Wang Dawei tried to win him over with his family background, Longlong acted without hesitation, without the slightest hesitation.

She herself probably had no hope for her parents either, and Jiang Qingyue felt a pang in her heart.

Instead of asking about that, she asked, "When did I die in my previous life?"

Wang Dawei found the question strange. Didn't you know when you died? But his mind was becoming increasingly blurry and had stopped functioning. He could only rely on instinct to barely answer, "I don't know."

Jiang Qingyue didn't believe it: "You secretly took so many photos of me, didn't you take advantage of the apocalypse in your previous life to do anything?"

"No, I was barely able to take care of myself at first, and by the time I had the strength to look for you, you had disappeared."

Jiang Qingyue frowned: "Are you sure I've disappeared, and not completely dead? You didn't find my body in my house or the seafood shop?"

"No. "

This was different from what he had guessed. Jiang Qingyue was also puzzled. If he wasn't at the seafood shop or at home, where could he have gone?

Could it be that you also obtained various special items in your previous life?

Thinking of this, she changed her question: "Was I famous in my previous life?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Dawei's brain, which had been on strike, finally realized something was wrong. Jiang Qingyue's questions were nothing like those of a reborn person.

"what!"

He didn't answer immediately, and was stabbed again by Jiang Qingyue. His mind, which had just regained some clarity, became blurred again with this blow.

Am I famous?

"Not well-known, never heard of it."

Is that so?

Jiang Qingyue sorted things out. In her previous life, she didn't die in the early stages of the apocalypse, which meant she must have found a way to survive.

There are only two ways to survive in this apocalypse: one, be strong enough, like her now, to obtain various special items and survive on her own.

Second, they found a powerful backer.

The fact that he is not well-known almost eliminates the first possibility.

If you acquire enough special items, even if you choose to hide somewhere like she did in this life, your survival rate won't be too low, and it's impossible to have no fame at all.

From this perspective, in her previous life, she either found a powerful backer but never became stronger, remaining unknown her entire life.

Either she died silently before Wang Dawei had the power to find her, and not at home or in the seafood shop.

After a moment of silence, Jiang Qingyue put aside her distracting thoughts. The past life is the past life, and this life is this life.

As long as I'm doing well now, that's enough.

She rearranged the previous questions, added some other questions, and asked Wang Dawei questions again.

This is to ensure the authenticity of the other party's answer.

As it was getting dark, fearing that Long Jiuxing would worry at home, Jiang Qingyue first sent a message to Long Jiuxing to let him know she was safe, and then had the Corpse King CEO carry Wang Dawei back to the shelter.
