Infinite: Starting from Resident Evil

Looking at Lu Linxuan, who had already closed his eyes, Shen Ye slowly exhaled, then thought to himself, "If Xue'er knew this, who knows how jealous she would be. Sigh, this wretched luck with women, it's both lovable and hateful!"

……

Chapter 397! Night Raid

……

Thinking that if Ji Ruxue found out that Lu Linxuan, whom she had only met once, had stolen from her home after she left, Shen Ye was a little worried about how to explain and face the situation. After all, given Ji Ruxue's jealous nature in the original story, who knows what might happen.

"Sigh, I hope things will be peaceful by then!" he sighed inwardly.

Thinking this, Shen Ye was wide awake, his eyes wide open. Lu Linxuan, on the other hand, fell asleep quickly and soon drifted off to sleep.

With the moonlight streaming in through the window, he looked at Lu Linxuan, who was sleeping peacefully on his chest, and couldn't help but find it amusing. Despite how wild she was in front of Li Xingyun, she was very quiet when she was sleeping. Combined with her delicate little face, he couldn't resist reaching out and pinching her cheek.

"Brother Shen..."

Lu Linxuan, whose face had been pinched, mumbled something unconsciously. It was unclear whether she was dreaming or not. Suddenly, a smile appeared on her face, and then she put one leg directly on Shen Ye's lower abdomen, and half of her body was pressed against his chest, allowing him to deeply feel her still-developing little pigeon.

Shen Ye couldn't help but compare her to Ji Ruxue, and found that there was no comparison at all. He sighed in his heart again: "You have a long way to go, young lady. Ji Ruxue is at least a level above you!"

However, Ji Ruxue is two years older than Lu Linxuan, which would have been considered a young woman in ancient times. It's natural that she would have a better figure than Lu Linxuan. So Shen Ye's comment was just a lighthearted jest, not slander. Besides, Lu Linxuan is only sixteen years old and has a bright future ahead of him.

After lost in thought for a while, Shen Ye finally felt a bit sleepy. Just then, a banging sound came from outside the window, followed by the voice of the night watchman.

"The weather is dry, be careful with fire, it's past midnight!"

"It's the second watch? It's already nine o'clock!"

Shen Ye has been in this world for a while now. At first, he couldn't tell what time the night watchman meant by the different watches, but now he finally understands a little.

He continued to think, "They say if the King of Hell calls you to die at midnight, he won't let you live until dawn. Judging from the code names of the higher-ups in the Xuanming Sect, they'll probably make their move at midnight. It's only the second watch now, there's still plenty of time, I can still get some sleep."

Thinking of this, Shen Ye looked down at Lu Linxuan, then put one hand under her armpit and placed it on her back, while placing the other hand on the back of her head. He then closed his eyes and slowly fell asleep.

He didn't know how long he had slept, but when Shen Ye opened his eyes, he was awakened by the sound of tiles colliding with each other above his head.

He looked up at the sky and thought to himself, "You've finally arrived."

He then gently patted Lu Linxuan's back and whispered in her ear, "Xuan'er, wake up, the Xuanming Sect people are here."

But perhaps because she was sleeping so well, we didn't wake her up.

"Your sleep quality is so enviable, even Ida would cry with envy," Shen Ye muttered. As a corporate spy, Ida was a light sleeper, and the slightest noise would wake her up, even after they returned to reality. As a result, when Shen Ye slept with her, he dared not make any large movements for fear of waking her up.

With a helpless sigh, Shen Ye had no choice but to try a different approach. He moved his hand from her back to her rather pert buttocks and patted them slightly, while repeating what he had just said in Lu Linxuan's ear.

However, even so, Lu Linxuan still did not wake up, which left Shen Ye speechless.

But soon, with the help of the moonlight, Shen Ye saw that Lu Linxuan's ears turned visibly red.

He was even more speechless. This girl had been awake for a long time, but was pretending to be asleep.

He had no choice but to whisper in her ear, "Get up and get dressed when you're awake. You're only wearing a bodice and underpants. Be careful that strangers don't see you."

These words were effective. Lu Linxuan immediately opened his eyes, sat up wrapped in the blanket, and searched for his clothes, complaining as he did so: "Damn Xuanming Sect, couldn't they have come a day later?"

"If you had come a day later, you wouldn't have been able to get into my room today either," Shen Ye said irritably, tapping Lu Linxuan's forehead with his finger.

Then he got out of bed, put on his coat, and sat on the edge of the bed, listening to the sounds above him.

At this moment, Lu Linxuan had also finished dressing. She knelt behind Shen Ye, her upper body pressed against his back, and whispered, "Brother Shen, should we go and remind our senior brother?"

She completely forgot about Zhang Zifan.

"No need, your senior brother and Brother Zhang have already woken up. They are both experts at the Lesser Heavenly Realm. These small fry can't do anything to them." Shen Ye patted Lu Linxuan's small hand, which was resting its chin on her shoulder, indicating that she should relax.

"Yes! Besides, with Brother Shen here, even if Senior Brother encounters danger, you can save him in time." Lu Linxuan trusted Shen Ye completely.

"That is."

Shen Ye nodded and glanced out the window. Although he didn't have X-ray vision, he could sense that the street next to the restaurant was full of people. One of them was breathing steadily and deeply, clearly indicating that his skill had reached a certain level. He judged that this person must be Jiang Zhaoyi, one of the Five Yama Kings. Apart from that, he could not sense any other experts.

"Only Jiang Zhaoyi... It seems the Black and White Impermanence won't be appearing anytime soon," Shen Ye thought.

Although Bai Wuchang was injured by Lao Li's palm strike, the injury was not serious. He could fully recover after two days of internal energy cultivation. However, Hei Wuchang was pierced through the chest by Lao Li's sword and pinned to a tree. Even if the two of them could use some kind of dual cultivation technique to speed up their recovery, it would probably take at least ten days for them to fully recover.

Moreover, if it were just Jiang Zhaoyi alone, he wouldn't even need to lend a hand. A mere Grand Star Rank cultivator plus a bunch of lackeys is no match for two Lesser Celestial Rank cultivators. After all, apart from being stronger than Hei Bai Wuchang, Jiang Zhaoyi is actually less dangerous. You should know that the cultivation techniques of Hei Bai Wuchang contain extremely poisonous corpse poison. In the original story, Li Xingyun, whose strength was two levels higher than Hei Bai Wuchang, suffered greatly from the corpse poison and even ruined his junior sister Lu Linxuan's future.

Just as he was thinking this, two loud crashes suddenly rang out from Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan's room. Judging from the noise, it seemed that the two of them had simultaneously shattered the roof, followed by the sound of a large amount of rubble falling to the ground.

"Brother Shen, they're fighting!" Hearing the commotion, Lu Linxuan looked nervous and jumped off the bed, running towards the window.

Shen Ye also got up and followed, opening the window before her. Then, he saw Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan jump down from the roof and fight with hundreds of Xuanming Sect assassins.

……

(Ah, so busy, so busy!)

Chapter 398! peers

……

In an instant, shouts of killing filled the streets next to the restaurant, but since it was night, no one was watching. Shen Ye even saw more than a dozen Yuzhou night patrol soldiers standing far away on the street, showing no intention of stopping them.

"Brother Shen, will my senior brother be alright?"

As the saying goes, concern leads to confusion. Even though she saw Li Xingyun slaughtering those soldiers like cutting melons and vegetables, Lu Linxuan, as his junior sister, was still extremely nervous.

Shen Ye observed the situation on the field and then focused his senses to perceive it. He found that there were no other experts besides Jiang Zhaoyi. He said in a very relaxed tone, "Relax, Xuan'er. Your senior brother hasn't even gone all out yet. Besides, Brother Zhang is the same. If the two of them are combined, even a mid-level expert wouldn't be able to defeat them in a short time."

As he was speaking, Jiang Zhaoyi, who had been watching the fight from the sidelines with an air of superiority, finally couldn't hold back any longer and stepped in to make his move. He shouted "Flaming Dragon Fist" with great confidence, and with a burst of fire, he threw a punch at Li Xingyun.

However, as a mere Grand Star Rank cultivator, how could he possibly contend with Li Xingyun, who was at the Lesser Heaven Rank? He was forced back by a single palm strike from Li Xingyun, who had already reacted.

"An experience pack is just an experience pack. No matter how confident you are, it's useless. This isn't Saint Seiya. Materialism can't compare to idealism. No matter how high your confidence is, it won't increase your combat power." Seeing this, Shen Ye shook his head slightly, thinking that there was no need to watch anymore; it was over.

Sure enough, Jiang Zhaoyi was defeated in one move after confidently throwing a punch. He realized that the information from the Black and White Impermanence was wrong. At this moment, he could no longer maintain his air of a master and immediately shouted out a Jianghu slang.

"This is a tough one, brothers, let's call it a day."

As soon as he finished speaking, he leaped onto the roof of a building on the side of the street and disappeared into the vast night with a few leaps.

With him gone, the remaining scoundrels of the Xuanming Sect naturally lost their will to fight. After Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan killed more than a dozen of them, the rest all ran away.

Seeing that the two seemed to want to chase after them, Shen Ye shouted, "Brother Li, Brother Zhang, don't chase them. Let's go back to our rooms and rest. We can talk about the rest tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing this, Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan had no choice but to abandon their pursuit and turn back into the room.

Lu Linxuan then asked, "Brother Shen, should we ask the manager to change their room?"

Shen Ye looked up at the bright moon in the sky, smiled and shook his head: "It won't rain tonight."

"Oh!" Lu Linxuan understood what he meant.

Then she tugged at Shen Ye's arm and said, "Brother Shen, let's go back to sleep!"

"You can still sleep?" Shen Ye looked at her.

“With Brother Shen by my side, Xuan’er feels very safe and can sleep well.” Lu Linxuan smiled and hugged his arm. “Come on, Brother Shen, let’s go to bed.”

"Alright then." Shen Ye nodded.

……

The next morning.

Shen Ye woke up Lu Linxuan, who was still holding him while he slept. After a quick wash, the two went directly to Li Xingyun's room to find him.

However, as soon as the two arrived at the door of Li Xingyun's room, they heard Li Xingyun and Zhang Zifan's voices from the first floor.

"What? You want us to pay you a hundred taels of silver? How can you be so greedy?" This was Li Xingyun's angry voice.

Then Zhang Zifan chimed in, "That's right, repairing a roof should only cost thirty or forty taels at most. Shopkeeper, you're really ripping people off."

Then came the innkeeper's polite voice: "Gentlemen, you are staying in the superior rooms, which are expensive. It will take at least four or five days for the roof to be repaired. The room will be uninhabitable for four or five days, and the loss will be too great for our inn. We hope you will understand."

Yesterday, a bloody fight broke out on the street next to the restaurant, which naturally woke up everyone in the restaurant. The manager also saw the two fighting fiercely through the crack in the door. Moreover, he was only so polite to them because he saw that they were both skilled in martial arts; otherwise, he would have already turned on them and demanded money.

Although Li Xingyun didn't even blink when killing members of the Xuanming Sect, he was still very polite to ordinary people. After listening to the shopkeeper's words, he thought to himself that it seemed to make sense, and his tone softened a bit.

"One hundred taels it is, take it." He took out a gold ingot, shoved it into the shopkeeper's hand with a sigh, and lamented how easily the money came and went. In just a few days, he had spent most of the several dozen taels of gold he had on him.

After waving away the innkeeper who was still asking if they wanted something to eat, the two found a seat by the window. Just then, Li Xingyun saw Shen Ye and Lu Linxuan coming downstairs and waved to them, "Brother Shen, Junior Sister, over here..."

Shen Ye and Lu Linxuan had just sat down when they heard Li Xingyun say, "Brother Shen, we repelled the Xuanming Sect's sneak attack last night. Can we leave today?"

“Of course, and they won’t bother us for a while, so it’s best to leave as soon as possible.” Shen Ye said, looking out the window. He noticed that there was no blood on the street, which meant that the patrolling soldiers had cleaned the streets overnight to avoid affecting the stability of Yuzhou.

At this moment, Zhang Zifan suddenly said, "Hey, although I know you're leaving Yuzhou, I don't know where you're going. Could you tell me? If it's on the same route, we can travel together."

Although they had spent two days together, neither Li Xingyun nor Lu Linxuan had told Zhang Zifan where they were going. Now that they were about to leave, he asked this question.

Lu Linxuan didn't like Zhang Zifan much to begin with, and was about to casually suggest a place when Li Xingyun spoke up first, saying, "We're going to Zhongnan Mountain Hidden Soldier Valley."

“That’s great! I was just about to go to Luoyang, so we can go the same way.” Zhang Zifan closed his folding fan, overjoyed.

"Who wants to go the same way as you..." Lu Linxuan muttered, then looked at Shen Ye. She didn't know why Shen Ye had stayed in Yuzhou in the first place, nor did she know where he was going in the future. Now that her senior brother had brought up the matter of going to the Hidden Weapon Valley, she asked Shen Ye, "Brother Shen, are you going to stay in Yuzhou, or are you going to the Hidden Weapon Valley with us?"

"I'm free to go anywhere." Shen Ye didn't have a specific place he wanted to go, so he planned to follow the main characters for the time being. In any case, only by following them could he better experience the plot and get to know more important characters.
