I transformed into a cute girl and lived a carefree life in the apocalypse.

Yan Ziming has always been the kind of person who can't hide his questions, so he asked directly.

Uncle, what's wrong?

Yan Shan glared at her and said to the others, "Get in the car and we'll talk. If we don't leave now, the military will hold us accountable."

Upon hearing this, Lin Shuqi, Yan Ziming, and Ye Qianxue quickly got into the car. Yan Shan was in the driver's seat, Yan Ziming was in the passenger seat, and the Lin Shuqi sisters and Ye Qianxue sat in the back.

As soon as the door was closed, the troop carrier began to vibrate. The sound of the accelerator was slightly deep, and a rumbling sound hummed in my ears.

This military troop carrier is really dangerous; the sound of the engine is loud enough to be an alarm clock for Ye Qianxue. Yan Ziming doesn't believe she can sleep in such a noisy environment.

Yan Ziming wanted to stretch, but found that he couldn't even reach above his head. Although the troop carrier was designed to transport soldiers, the comfort level was not great. The space was a bit cramped, and apart from the driver's seat and the passenger seat, the people in the back were basically sitting like flesh to flesh.

"Hold on tight." As soon as Yan Shan finished speaking, the troop carrier sped up to over 100 km/h in three seconds. Due to inertia, Yan Ziming and the three people in the back row were directly embedded in their seats.

I never knew you were such a seasoned driver on Mount Akina!

"Uncle, about what just happened..."

"I'm here to prevent 'Death' from going berserk."

Seeing that Yan Ziming didn't understand, Yan Shan continued, "I'm afraid your commotion will disturb 'Death's' sleep. If you all perish here, it would be an unbearable blow for us. And it's not just me; Huang Tao is here too."

"Why is he here too?" Not only Yan Ziming, but even the three people in the back row were somewhat surprised.

Lin Shuqi asked impatiently, "Why is even the deputy commander-in-chief here? Isn't he afraid of a complete collapse if he's not directing from the rear?"

Yes! Generally speaking, it is perfectly normal for the deputy commander to take over when the commander-in-chief Yan Shan is not present. But now that even the deputy commander-in-chief has taken the field, who should be in command at the headquarters?

However, Yan Ziming and the others have fallen into a misconception.

Who says the command center has to be in the rear? Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. The sudden appearance of "Death" is already an emergency. Sticking to the old ways will only lead to total defeat.

"Simply put, his superpower is wind manipulation. We can use his superpower to isolate the noise you make. Although we can't completely block it, we can reduce it to a minimum."

"No way, a ninth-tier expert can even do something like this?"

You should know that what Huang Tao is doing covers the entire Yongliang Military and Administrative Region!

Lin Shuqi was now filled with admiration for the ninth-level expert. This was no less impressive than the methods of immortals, was it?

Yan Shan smiled. Although Lin Shuqi already thought highly of ninth-level experts, it still didn't seem right!

Upon reaching the ninth rank, the fine-tuning of one's supernatural abilities can reach its limit. Achieving this is nothing special. Those who reach the pinnacle can even use celestial phenomena to greatly enhance their strength.

Yan Shan knew Huang Tao's strength; given the right conditions, he might be able to fight "Death" to the death.

Thinking of this, Yan Shan glanced at Yan Ziming beside him. Like Huang Tao, she also had elemental abilities and should be able to do something similar.

As for what kind of superpower Ye Qianxue possesses, Yan Shan doesn't know yet, but...

Yan Shan had been somewhat concerned since they first met, because he felt a special sense of closeness to Ye Qianxue.

This sense of closeness isn't the kind between friends and family; rather, it's more like the attraction between people of the same kind.

But when Yan Shan carefully sensed it, he discovered that the feeling of closeness actually came from Ye Qianxue's chest!

This was incredibly embarrassing; Yan Shan almost crashed his car into an abandoned truck on the side of the road.

Chapter Thirty-Five: Are Your Breasts Fake?

"Uncle, drive carefully! You almost crashed just now."

Having narrowly avoided the abandoned truck, Yan Ziming complained, feeling dizzy from the impact.

Yan Shan coughed, took a deep breath, and tried to concentrate on driving, but the special feeling of closeness still made him a little restless.

But he was too embarrassed to ask directly. Was he supposed to just say to Ye Qianxue, "Can I take a look at your chest?"

If that's the case, then Yan Shan will be in a situation where he can't clear his name even if he jumps into the Yellow River.

Yan Shan was having a bit of a headache. If they were all women, it would be fine, but he was a man! And he was even considered her elder.

Oh! Right, there's a woman with him! She's my own niece, so it would be perfect to ask her for help. I'll ask her when we get to our destination.

With that thought in mind, he floored the accelerator!

The girls' shrill screams were left behind on their way to their destination.

——————————Dividing line——————————

Half an hour later, north of the Yongliang Military Administrative Region.

"vomit--"

Everyone who got off the bus was extremely dizzy, and some of the weaker individuals even vomited.

Surprisingly, Yan Ziming acted as if nothing had happened, gently patting Ye Qianxue's back to make her feel more comfortable.

Seeing this as a good opportunity, Yan Shan pulled Yan Zimo aside and asked in a low voice, "Zimo, your uncle has something he wants to ask you."

"Uh? Uncle, please tell me." Yan Ziming felt something was off. Why was her uncle acting like a thief?

"Um... what exactly is that on Chiyuki's chest?"

"Huh?" Yan Ziming was stunned. Yan Shan's question left her at a loss. Was her uncle trying to seduce a woman? And the target was her most important sister?

Yan Ziming glanced at Ye Qianxue and, after confirming that she hadn't heard him, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Holy crap, Uncle, what are you thinking! Aren't you afraid your mother will kill you for doing this?!"

"No! I just wanted to ask if Qianxue was carrying anything strange! And don't try to pressure me with your aunt, or I'll teach you a lesson." Seeing that Yan Ziming had misunderstood, Yan Shan quickly explained.

Phew—thank goodness, it seems Uncle didn't intend to do anything to betray Aunt. Besides, Ye Qianxue is hers, after all! Even if she's her uncle, she absolutely cannot back down.

"So that's how it is. I thought you were thinking of taking advantage of a young woman, Uncle." Yan Ziming laughed.

Yan Shan slammed a hammer directly onto Yan Ziming's head, the sound of which was incredibly loud! Lin Shuqi and her sister, who had already vomited, and Ye Qianxue all turned around, curious about what had happened.

Suddenly, Ye Qianxue's chest twitched, and something jumped out from inside.

Lin Shuqi hadn't seen what jumped out yet, but since it came from Ye Qianxue's chest, there was only one answer: ...

"Holy crap, are your breasts fake?"

"Bullshit, your breasts are fake, ptooey, no, you don't even have breasts." Ye Qianxue couldn't stand it when she heard this and retorted sarcastically.

These words hurt Lin Shuqi quite a bit. Didn't you see that she was already bent over in despair and had tears streaming down her face?

When something popped out from Ye Qianxue's chest, Yan Shan immediately glanced at it.

Ahem, this doesn't mean Yan Shan is a lecherous fiend, but rather that Yan Shan sensed that the thing that popped out was the very thing he had always cared about.

When he finally saw what it was, he couldn't contain his emotions any longer. "This...this is!"

Yan Shan gave a bitter smile. How many times had he been surprised lately? First, there was the Soul Heaven Realm expert, then the destruction of the Yongjing Military Administrative Region, then the Sequence-level "Grim Reaper," and now this thing had appeared. He was almost numb to it all.

The object before me combines the head of a lion, the antlers of a deer, the eyes of a tiger, the body of a deer, the scales of a dragon, and the tail of an ox. Its tail is hairy like a dragon's tail and has a horn with flesh.

Isn't this the auspicious beast from ancient Chinese mythology—the Qilin!

Others might not recognize him, but who is Yan Shan? He's seen more of the world than any of the people present have eaten, let alone himself...

Yan Shan smiled wryly and said, "Where did you find such a little devil?"

Chapter Thirty-Six: The Auspicious Beast Qilin

"Uncle, are you talking about Xiao Ze?" After discovering that the Qilin Beast had run out, Ye Qianxue quickly picked it up to prevent it from escaping.

Ozawa?

Yan Ziming's lips twitched. From the time she picked up this little thing until now, she's already come up with a name in such a short time? Girls really are emotional creatures!

It seems Yan Ziming has forgotten that she is now a girl, and a stunningly beautiful one at that.

The Qilin beast nestled in Ye Qianxue's arms, occasionally peeking out its head to look at Yan Shan, as if it were afraid of him.

"Do you know what kind of creature this is?" Yan Shan pointed to the Qilin beast in Ye Qianxue's arms and said with a wry smile.

"It should be... a Qilin, right? Probably!"

Yan Ziming thought for a moment and gave a vague and uncertain answer.

"It's not 'should,' it is a Qilin, the auspicious beast in ancient Chinese mythology." Yan Shan rubbed his hands together, eager to get his hands on the Qilin and study it carefully.

Yan Ziming scratched his cheek, somewhat dismissively, "Actually, I had a guess when I saw it, but I wasn't quite sure."

"How did you manage to get it to follow you willingly? This kind of mythical beast isn't something you can just find anyone to follow!"

The auspicious beast Qilin is renowned in ancient Chinese mythology, and its strength and status are comparable to those of the dragon.

Correspondingly, its standards are exceptionally high. Those who can be followed by it are all people of extraordinary talent and great fortune. It is absolutely impossible for it to follow an ordinary person casually.

Yan Ziming's lips twitched again. He couldn't very well say that he was lured out by a box of braised pork intestines, could he? That would be laughable.

"Gibberish, gibberish..."

To avoid embarrassment, Yan Ziming chattered on and on in Yan Shan's ear.

Yan Shan's expression turned strange. Was it really for this reason?

You have to understand, this is a mythical beast, the Qilin! It was lured in by a box of pork stew with vermicelli? Who the hell would believe that? If the person telling him wasn't Yan Zimo, Yan Shan would never have believed it.

Lin Shuqi, standing nearby, was almost numb. Why was this freakish cow so lucky? She even managed to encounter the auspicious beast Qilin.
