A beautiful woman in the apocalypse is pregnant, and all the big shots are vying to be her father.

Chapter 58 Only Three Seconds

But Josie was not afraid at all; the smile on her face seemed to be a challenge to her authority. "Then you can try."

With a "whoosh," the dagger was pressed against Josie's neck.

"You think I wouldn't dare?" Jiang Yun sneered. "Or do you think those men would come after me for revenge because of a plaything like you?"

Her dagger slowly moved upwards. "However! Killing you like this isn't fun. I can ruin your face and make you understand that you only attract them with this face."

"Jealousy is not shameful; what is shameful is to harbor jealousy while feigning contempt. So what if you have superpowers? I look down on you, and the man I've set my sights on looks down on you too!"

These words were like tearing away the veil of shame from Jiang Yun's face, and she angrily grabbed the dagger and slashed at her face...

Suddenly, Josie disappeared from in front of him.

Jiang Yun didn't react for a moment, but after she did, she stammered, "You're also a superhuman!"

She immediately turned around and looked around.

"Is your superpower invisibility? Or teleportation?"

Jiang Yun seemed to be talking to thin air.

She talked for a long time, but no one paid any attention to her.

"So what if you have superpowers? You still just hide them!" She sneered.

But she felt uneasy; the plaything she looked down on turned out to be a superhuman.

Unable to find Josie, she had no outlet for her anger and could only turn away with a cold face.

But at that moment, something cold pressed against my neck.

She immediately realized what it was.

Her face turned pale instantly. "What...what do you want to do?"

They leaned back at the same time, trying to avoid the blade.

But Josie wouldn't give her that chance; she held her firmly with her other hand, preventing her from moving.

No matter how she moved, the dagger remained stuck in her artery.

Anger instantly filled her chest, and her hand slowly moved when Josh wasn't looking.

Josie stared at her hand as she activated her powers, and chuckled, "I advise you not to act rashly. You're just a low-level ability user. By the time you attack me, my dagger will have already severed your artery. Don't believe me..."

Josie deliberately dragged out her words to put pressure on her already tense mental defenses, "You can give it a try."

Jiang Yun immediately stopped what she was doing and even managed a smile. "You misunderstood. I didn't mean to do anything to you. Since you're also an ability user, you're on the same level as me. I just look down on those ants who sell their bodies and depend on men. It's not that I'm targeting you."

Josie smiled and said, "Don't make it sound so noble. You'll only be qualified to say such things after you've experienced the true bloodshed of the apocalypse."

Just like Jiang Yun, she moved the dagger lightly, slicing it across her neck. "If you don't have superpowers, you're not much more noble than those girls!"

These words enraged Jiang Yun. "Bullshit! I would never do that."

"I don't care if you can do it or not. Today, I just want to teach you a lesson. You are just a beginner-level ability user, not a god who controls the life and death of others."

As soon as she finished speaking, Josie swiftly pulled, the sharp blade leaving a cut from her cheek to her earlobe.

"You dare to hurt me?" Jiang Yun turned to look at her in disbelief.

Josie pressed the dagger against her neck again. "If you don't understand the situation, I don't mind taking your life right now."

Her voice was stern, and her eyes were icy cold.

In Jiang Yun's eyes, the woman in front of him and the woman standing next to Feng Ye and Fu Jinxing were two completely different people.

Jiang Yun pursed her lips tightly; she had misjudged him!

"I won't let this go so easily!" Josie laughed. "What? Do you want me to kill you today so you'll realize that this world isn't ruled by a mere low-level ability user like you? Now, apologize to me!"

She originally didn't want to be enemies with these superhumans, but since the feud had already begun, she had to psychologically crush them.

After all, her superpower was not lethal; she was only able to succeed because her opponent was completely unprepared.

If she had another chance, she might not have had the opportunity to get close to him.

So this time, she was determined to intimidate Jiang Yun and make her dare not provoke her again.

Jiang Yun just glared at her without saying a word. Qiao Xi sneered, and the dagger in her hand moved again...

"Wait, I apologize." Jiang Yun blurted out instinctively.

"I thought someone with superpowers like you wouldn't be able to apologize, but it turns out you are. Fine, I'll give you another chance."

Jiang Yun's eyes were practically spitting fire, but Qiao Xi didn't care at all.

"My patience only lasts three seconds."

Afraid that she would really scratch his face again, he spoke up, feeling wronged, "I'm sorry."

With a gritted-teeth tone, Josie smiled and nodded, "Remember, don't mess with me next time, or it won't be resolved with just an apology."

After saying that, her figure vanished in a flash.

Jiang Yun turned around and looked at the empty surroundings, letting out a low cry of anger and resentment.

After she finished venting, she remembered where she was and immediately turned and left.

A piece of paper on the ground slowly turned into a pebble, rolled into the grass, and then became a rock that required both hands to move.

She was very happy. Since she could store more energy, although she could still only transform into inanimate objects, she could now clearly transform into larger things.

The stones she can conjure now are at least dozens of times larger than before, and... she feels she can conjure even larger objects, though the ability might not last long.

"Xixi?"

A familiar voice came from afar.

Fu Jinxing didn't expect that he would only stay with the leaders of the safe zone for a few minutes. He left early because he was worried that Xixi would be bored by herself, but the leaders were still nowhere to be found when he came out.

Josie wanted to speak, but looking at the several superhumans around Fu Jinxing, she hesitated.

She decided to wait and see; she needed to keep her special ability hidden, as it could save her life in a critical moment.

She had just seized the initiative and outmaneuvered Jiang Yun, so she couldn't expose herself.

After searching the entire courtyard, Fu Jinxing's gentle expression turned impatient. "You don't need to follow me. Split up and search. If you can't find it here, go outside and look!"

"Okay, Professor Fu, don't worry, as long as they are in the safe zone, we will definitely find them."

Fu Jinxing nodded, and after the two left to look for Qiao Xi, he also started walking, intending to continue.

But just then, Qiao Xi's voice came from behind, "Brother Jinxing, were you looking for me?"

Fu Jinxing stopped and turned around. When he saw the familiar face, the bad emotions on his face disappeared.

He strode towards her, his long legs carrying him steadily. "Why weren't you waiting for me inside? Where did you go all by yourself?"

"I was bored inside, so I came out and took a walk around the neighborhood."

"Have you been in this area the whole time?"

Fu Jinxing raised an eyebrow in suspicion. The courtyard wasn't big, and they hadn't even seen it just now.

　Just so you know, this story is a one-to-many plot. Anyone who looks like the male lead is actually the male lead. The female lead starts off as a sneaky character, but she'll become incredibly powerful later on. This is just the beginning; the story will only get more exciting from here on out!
