"Thank you to Brother Da Ai for the 1888, and thanks to the other brothers and sisters as well. I see some people asking about the issue of gift coins. The thing is, gift coins should not be allowed and do not count as the author's subscription~~"
The spirit woman, with a black cat perched on her shoulder, jumped in through the window and looked at Ye Zhongming with a complex expression.
Such an expression made it difficult for Ye Zhongming to associate her with zombies; only humans could possess such a window to the soul.
The spirit woman pressed tightly against the window, an instinctive display of caution.
The current Ye Zhongming was different from the one the spirit woman had encountered before. Back then, she could chase him with her pet cat, but now, this man had already surpassed her by an evolution level, and her keen senses always warned her of the extreme danger he posed.
It felt as if... this man could kill her with just a flick of his hand.
The spirit woman hated this feeling of helplessness, as well as the stark contrast compared to before.
“We, help you, you, you give, we, blood,” the spirit woman’s voice was more natural than Red Hair's, yet it still felt somewhat pedantic.
Ye Zhongming spun the vial of evolution blood rapidly between his fingers, a fidgeting action that irritated both Red Hair and the spirit woman.
“Help me? What have you helped me with?”
Ye Zhongming stood up, and the spirit woman leaned back slightly, her black cat's shiny fur bristling in alarm.
The pressure that Ye Zhongming exerted was immense for them.
Only Red Hair, perhaps because she was 'created' by Ye Zhongming, showed no signs of wariness.
“I could come out from the roulette thanks to my five-star battle pet and the survivors around me, not because of you. The previous agreement was that you help me leave, and I give you evolution blood, but you didn’t assist me, so why should I give you the evolution blood? This drop is merely a reward for that vial of three-star evolution elixir; you need to understand that.”
“I, can’t.”
In the end, she was not quite accustomed to communicating with human language. In a moment of urgency, the spirit woman struggled to articulate and took a long time to continue, “I, helped, stop, them, from attacking, you.”
The spirit woman referred to the conflict that arose between Yangos and the mutated animal faction after the first spin of the roulette, as well as the subsequent attempts by several corpse kings to invade the human camp.
At that time, Red Hair and the spirit woman indeed used mental communication to slow down the zombies’ speed a bit.
“Since you have gained wisdom, you should understand that this small matter does not significantly impact the overall situation.”
“Your, battle pet, is fake.”
Ye Zhongming’s pupils shrank slightly.
At that moment, the spirit woman also forgot the immense pressure from Ye Zhongming and straightened her body to say again, “Your, battle pet, is fake, I can feel it.”
The spirit woman was originally a spiritual-type mutated zombie, and it was indeed possible for her to see through Young Master Yun’s fraudulent shapeshifter occupation. However, Ye Zhongming did not expect that this spirit woman, who was only at the third evolution level, would be able to realize this issue.
Ye Zhongming’s gaze shifted to the green magic crystal intertwined within the black on the spirit woman’s forehead.
This made the spirit woman and her pet cat immediately adopt a defensive posture.
Red Hair glanced at the spirit woman and then at Ye Zhongming, hesitated for a moment, and then focused her gaze on the spirit woman, which only heightened the spirit woman’s already extreme anxiety.
Although, due to some special circumstances, the master-servant spiritual connection between Red Hair and Ye Zhongming had transformed into an equal spiritual bond, if she had to choose between Ye Zhongming and the spirit woman, Red Hair would naturally choose Ye Zhongming. She shared a natural closeness with this man while her relationship with the spirit woman was ultimately just one of cooperation.
