"Shouldn’t we chase?"

Watching the backs of the fleeing zombies, Wang Biao hesitantly glanced at middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan.

There was a sense of urgency on his face.

This was a huge pile of crystal cores!

If he could fight them, he would have chased them long ago.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan frowned and didn’t respond.

He knew Old Tao, the Zombie King, had some connections with the Bai Family and even possessed the family photo of Taovillage.

Zhang Yiming ran too fast, and was already out of sight.

Chasing wasn’t very meaningful.

"He doesn’t want to fight us." Middle-aged Liu Jing’s gaze was somewhat complex.

Zhang Yiming seemed like a really good kid, saving their family, yet they were always thinking about eliminating him.

Even though they had openly declared war, Zhang Yiming still hadn’t made a move against them.

Could such a Zombie Emperor really become the future Zombie Emperor?

For the first time, the middle-aged couple doubted their memories of the future.

Could they have remembered the name wrong?

"There’s something in the Yellow River!"

A superpower user suddenly pointed towards the nearby Yellow River.

"What thing? There’s nothing!"

Wang Biao glanced at the Yellow River, feeling a bit irritable and distracted.

Almost, almost he could have picked up the scraps, but Zhang Yiming didn’t play by the rules, running away without a fight.

The river surface was calm, with only faint ripples spreading out circle by circle.

"There really is something, I saw a section of a white snake’s tail, and it looks thicker than a barrel!"

A superpower user trembled, backing away slowly.

"Nonsense! There’s no way something that big..."

Just as Wang Biao was about to finish, the river surface suddenly "boiled," and a giant shadow was faintly visible beneath the water.

"The Flood Dragon is turning over, run away!"

A local who grew up near the Yellow River turned and ran.

He had heard since childhood that there was something in the Yellow River, and whenever it flooded, the elderly in the village would say it was the Flood Dragon turning over.

He had never believed it.

Now, seeing the long shadow beneath the Yellow River, what was left to disbelieve?

The long shadow almost covered the entire river surface; it was hard to imagine how it moved around in there usually.

A gigantic creature.

If such a giant "Flood Dragon" were to turn over, it would undoubtedly cause the Yellow River to flood disastrously.

Flooding was not the scary part; the scary part was if the creatures inside came out.

Surrounding superpower users also got scared and turned to run without a word.

"My dear, let’s go!"

Middle-aged Liu Jing glanced at the Yellow River water, a hint of dread in her eyes.

They had survived the apocalypse for over a decade, traveling everywhere in search of the legendary Chenghuang.

Every place rich in mythological significance had some mysterious presence.

Some say these are just ordinary animals, massively mutated due to the energy tide, thus appearing as they are.

Some say they have always existed, and the energy tide only made them more active.

In any case, it’s undeniable that the things in the Yellow River are not to be messed with by anyone.

Not just the Yellow River, but the Kunlun Mountain Range, Changbai Mountain Range... every mountain and river rich in mythological significance houses some powerful mutant animals.

Those animals’ size and intelligence far exceed ordinary mutant animals, more astounding than mythological monsters.

They seem to have always belonged there, appearing to have lived a very long time.

Yet, strangely, no one discovered their presence before the apocalypse erupted.

Only in a few stories steeped in mythology did they cast faint shadows.

"Alright, let’s go!"

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan suppressed his energy, grabbed middle-aged Liu Jing’s wrist, and turned to walk out of Yellow River Beach.

Their pace was not slow.

Swish swish—

The Yellow River water churned fiercely.

Middle-aged Liu Jing looked back and saw a group of white jade-colored giant snakes suddenly swimming out of the Yellow River.

These giant snakes were over ten meters long, thicker even than Bai Anhai’s barrel-sized waist.

There were hundreds of these giant snakes, quickly crawling up onto Yellow River Beach.

Under the sunlight, densely packed, just a glance could make one’s scalp feel numb.

The giant shadow under the Yellow River didn’t disappear, staying perfectly still.

It seemed to be waiting for the children to return with a full stomach.

They wouldn’t eat carrion; even if zombies entered the Yellow River, they wouldn’t take a bite.

They still needed to eat.

They were very picky about what they ate.

They only liked superpower users or mutant animals, not decaying flesh.

The mysterious presence in the river sensed the top-quality "food" on Yellow River Beach and appeared at this moment.

"Oh my, run quickly!"

Wang Biao looked at the completely white jade-colored giant snakes on Yellow River Beach, his scalp tingling, not daring to make a move.

It’s not that he couldn’t fight back.

The giant shadow under the Yellow River was always present, its terrifying pressure almost crushing him, leaving him no courage to counterattack.

Thinking about the giant shadow nearly filling the Yellow River, Wang Biao wanted to strangle Captain Zhu.

This place chosen is so eerie!

Couldn’t he find a better place?

The Zombie King wasn’t killed, and now everyone was about to perish here.

The white jade-colored giant snakes swam very fast, quickly catching up with the slowest superpower user, swallowing them whole.

The giant snake that swallowed a superpower user leisurely stopped, slowly turned, and swam back to the Yellow River, its massive belly hindering its movement, yet not fearing anyone attacking at its weakest moment.

Because the Snake King was in the river protecting them.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan heard the screams from behind, hesitantly pausing for a moment. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Saving people in the apocalypse is the most illogical behavior, especially with the most untouchable existence in the river.

But the screams were so close, truly unbearable.

"Grandpa and Grandma, run faster! Don’t look back!"

Bai Yifan’s voice came through the drone.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan quickly glanced at the tree where the drone was placed, his mouth moved slightly, then pulled middle-aged Liu Jing along.

The screams behind them were endless, but middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan and Liu Jing never looked back.

They knew the river’s presence held grudges, and anyone daring to harm any white snake would not be spared by the Snake King.

It would crawl out of the river, only returning once it had killed those who harmed the white snakes.

Each time it emerged, it was no less than a zombie tide outbreak for humans.

No need for middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan and Liu Jing to state, none of the superpower users dared to attack and kill the white snakes.

The hundreds of giant snakes were truly terrifying; unable to defeat them, it was better to run quickly.

The shadow in the river persisted; striking would only waste time for escaping.

The white snakes were very fast, and the superpower users weren’t bad physically either; it was a contest between the two.

The Bai Family had already started the bus but had to wait in place.

The soil on Yellow River Beach was too loose, with silt; it couldn’t drive too close to the Yellow River, in case it stalled, it would be troublesome.

Forget about saving people; the whole family would be tidy enough to feed the snakes.

"Grandpa and Grandma, head towards us, we’re in the south, we’ll drive away!"

Bai Yifan turned up the volume of the drone.

As soon as Bai Yifan spoke, all the superpower users suddenly rushed south with all their might.

The heavy trucks they parked were in the south.

Driving away would surely shake off those giant snakes.

Middle-aged Bai Zhengxuan and Liu Jing also turned to run south, wanting to go protect the Bai Family.

This turn put them from the very front to the central position.
