The veins on the back of Cheng Jingyi's hand bulged as he grabbed Shen Yisui's collar and tugged at it twice without success. Sensing this, Shen Yisui tightened his grip, as if trying to tear a layer of skin off Cheng Jingyi.

"What's wrong? Are you upset?" Cheng Jingyi's breathing became heavier. He pressed down on the back of Shen Yisui's head and said, "Let go."

"I won't let go." Shen Yisui already tasted blood in his mouth. He opened his eyes, his pupils empty and staring straight at the blank wall in front of him. "Tell me, am I being good?"

"Are you looking for death?" Cheng Jingyi's voice lowered. He recalled some things from before, his jaw muscles twitched twice, and he repeated, "Let go."

Am I a good boy or a bad boy?

"Give in."

"Am I being good?"

"loose."

"Cheng Jingyi, have I been a good girl or not...?"

A dull thud echoed in the room. Before Shen Yisui could finish speaking, a dull pain shot through the back of his head. He frowned, his eyelids drooped twice, and then he grabbed Cheng Jingyi's collar again.

“Cheng Jingyi…is this all you’ve got? Let me tell you, with that little strength you couldn’t even knock me out. You’ve never known…”

Another thud echoed in the room, and Shen Yisui's voice abruptly ceased. His body slumped backward, and his teeth finally slipped from Cheng Jingyi's earlobe.

Cheng Jingyi grabbed the back of his collar with one hand and pulled Shen Yisui off him.

Shen Yisui had also scratched several marks on his back. Cheng Jingyi reached out and touched the muscles on his back, also checking that his clothes were intact and had not been torn by Shen Yisui.

Shen Yi closed his eyes and lay down on the bed. He was still pale, and his face was still tightly furrowed when he fainted, revealing some different facial features than usual.

How good are you...?

If this had happened much earlier, Shen Yisui would never have said these things to Cheng Jingyi. Cheng Jingyi captured him and built him a cage, and Shen Yisui was quite adept at playing the role of a caged bird inside.

Cheng Jingyi made him do many things, even pushing the boundaries of decency at times. Shen Yisui appeared to be forced, but he consistently followed Cheng Jingyi's orders.

He was patient and lying low.

Is he well-behaved?

Cheng Jingyi touched his ear with his fingers. His earlobe had been bitten by Shen Yisui and was still bleeding.

Cheng Jingyi casually wiped his face with his sleeve, his gaze fleeting over the bloodstains, seemingly unconcerned.

The bite Shen Yisui inflicted on him so far only caused minor injuries; before... he almost killed Cheng Jingyi.

Cheng Jingyi reached out and touched a pure black scar on her chest, close to the edge of her heart, stretching from her chest all the way to her lower abdomen, visibly hideous and terrifying.

This deep, internal scar was given to me by Shen Yisui.

Cheng Jingyi's eyes grew cold. He bit Shen Yisui's lips hard, his resentment still lingering.

At that time, the apocalypse had just begun, zombies broke out, and various regions fell one after another.

Cheng Jingyi was also abandoned during the escape and fell into the mouths of zombies. He fought his way out and survived the zombie virus, retaining a part of his human consciousness after his body became diseased.

But at that time, he was still too weak among the zombie horde. He had no experience and just numbly followed the zombie horde, searching for rotten flesh to eat.

After nearly three or four months, Cheng Jingyi slowly broke free from the low-level zombie horde. After awakening his supernatural abilities, he directly rose to the ranks of high-level zombies and became directly under the command of the Zombie King.

The first task the Zombie King assigned him was to eliminate Shen Yu.

Shen Yu is the leader of humanity in the apocalypse. His abilities have already threatened the existence of the Zombie King. The Zombie King regards him as a thorn in his side and has specially dispatched countless high-level zombies to assassinate Shen Yu.

The Zombie King's mental pressure exists in the minds of every high-ranking zombie. Cheng Jingyi received orders and infiltrated the Eastern District Military Headquarters that very night, intending to cut off Shen Yu's head.

Shen Yu was surrounded by numerous protective barriers, but they were not without any loopholes. Cheng Jingyi waited outside for nearly a week before finally finding a gap during the soldiers' handover and sneaking into the military headquarters.

His goal was to kill Shen Yu.

That night, he entered Shen Yu's room as planned. As soon as he stepped inside, he was nearly pierced by thousands of ice shards that rushed towards him from inside the room.

Shen Yisui had somehow learned of Cheng Jingyi's whereabouts. He set a trap and waited inside, then plunged the ice spikes into Cheng Jingyi's chest, cutting down along the flesh.

He was only off by a fraction of a centimeter, but he almost pierced Cheng Jingyi's heart.

At that time, Cheng Jingyi lacked the ability and was not able to use his mental power freely. When Shen Yi stabbed at him, each strike was deadly, completely disregarding Cheng Jingyi's identity and situation.

Cheng Jingyi nearly lost his life on the spot. Shen Yisui, being blind, took advantage of the moment when Cheng Jingyi was listening to the sound to smash the window and escape from the East District.

Shen Yi followed closely, taking two steps before stopping in front of the French windows, his grayish-white pupils turning directly in the direction where Cheng Jingyi was.

Cheng Jingyi fell into the grass, cursing under his breath, and looked up. Shen Yisui stood above, his face cold and stern, holding a meter-long icicle, his eyes still calm.

Cheng Jingyi memorized the dead man's appearance in just a few seconds. If he ever gained power, he would definitely hang this man up and whip him.

He didn't recognize Shen Yisui at that time, and of course Shen Yisui didn't recognize him either.

To Shen Yisui, Cheng Jingyi was just a nameless zombie who had fled in panic. If he remembered this incident later, he would probably only blame himself for being careless and letting Cheng Jingyi escape.

Cheng Jingyi struggled to his feet, clutching his chest, and staggered away from the military's protective wall.

Less than a minute later, just as Cheng Jingyi had grabbed the edge of the wall, he suddenly heard a loud thud behind him.

Another figure plummeted from the window upstairs, crashing to the ground and sending dust and rubble flying.

Cheng Jingyi is a high-level zombie with physical abilities far exceeding those of ordinary humans, so even though he was stabbed by Shen Yisui, he was able to force himself to get up and escape.

But the other person who fell behind him was clearly not a zombie. His bones were all shattered the moment he hit the ground, and thick blood seeped from his eyes and nose. His injuries were particularly severe.

He is an ordinary human being.

"Shen...you can't...use the remote control..."

He died within two or three seconds.

The person standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window remained motionless, while all the sirens installed by the military nearby lit up and wailed, echoing repeatedly in the open space.

Cheng Jingyi sat on the edge of the wall, squinting as he looked up. He saw the person in front of the French window turn around, the icicles dissipate, and his figure quickly disappear from Cheng Jingyi's sight.
