The cheat system is useless, but I have the strongest living dad.

The little zombie was confined to the ceiling, greatly reducing its range of movement.

Shen Yao released wooden vines onto the chains binding the little zombie. The vines wrapped around the chains, making the little zombie's range of movement smaller and smaller.

Feng Yu also used her root binding technique, which intertwined with the wooden vines, firmly fixing the iron chain that was locking the little zombie to the ceiling.

The little zombie struggled desperately, staring intently at Feng Yu and roaring.

Huo Die reminded him again, "Don't make eye contact with it!"

The golden wheel made two circles on the little zombie's head, and the little zombie squeaked loudly, a cloud of black mist gathering on its head.

Huo Die shouted, "Oh no! It's going to self-destruct! Retreat back to the passage!"

Hu Yawu, who was closest to the entrance, quickly exited the third room.

Sparks flew from the black mist above the little zombie's head.

Shen Yao and Feng Yu were near the wall of the fourth room, and it was too late to leave.

With a loud "Boom!", the little zombie exploded. In the nick of time, Huo Die cast a golden light shield over Shen Yao and Feng Yu, and was himself blasted to the door.

A series of loud bangs erupted in the three rooms, and flames burst forth, making the room extremely hot.

The golden light shield and the golden light protective barrier on their bodies had been shattered. Shen Yao's ears were ringing, and she could not hear any other sounds.

She was pinned down by Feng Yu and held tightly in his arms.

Feng Yu's arms were wrapped around her head, protecting her.

The flames on his back burned, only to be extinguished by the falling stone walls and sand.

The collapsing wall quickly buried them, and rubble kept falling, trapping them completely.

Feng Yu's ears were also ringing, and she couldn't hear anything else.

Everything was dark; I couldn't see anything.

Fortunately, he could still feel the warmth in his arms. He endured the intense pain in his back and gritted his teeth to keep himself from crying out.

He reached out with difficulty, stroking Shen Yao's head and face, feeling her body temperature and breathing.

"Don't be afraid." As the pain in his back gradually subsided, he regained the strength to speak: "Yanzhou, don't be afraid."

Shen Yao couldn't hear him at all; she only felt a burning pain at the point where the seal was placed on her collarbone.

She rubbed Feng Yu's hand, telling him over and over again, "I'm fine," and asked him if he was alright, but she heard no reply.

Hu Yawu, who exited the passage first, was unharmed. It seems that the three rooms were protected by some kind of barrier, as the zombie self-destruction did not affect the passages on both sides.

After the collapse stopped, Hu Yawu rushed into the third room and used his spiritual power to quickly clear away the soil and rocks. There were also some corpses of bloodworms in the soil and rocks, all of which were killed when the little zombies self-destructed.

The bloodworms were mostly not intact; they were stuck together in clumps, their reddish-black fluid clinging to the soil and rocks, which was quite disgusting.

Huo Die crawled out of the dirt and stones at the door, his head still spinning and his ears ringing.

When Hu Yawu saw Huo Die, he shouted anxiously, "Old Man Huo, save your daughter and son-in-law! They're buried inside!"

Huo Die looked at Hu Yawu's manner of speaking to him, but couldn't hear what he was saying at all. He could only guess from his actions that Hu Yawu wanted him to save Shen Yao and Feng Yu.

The dirt and rocks were quickly cleared away, and when they saw Feng Yu supporting Shen Yao, their hearts clenched.

Feng Yu's entire back was devoid of any intact skin; the flesh was charred and burned, and the charred hair, fragments of clothing, and charred skin were all fused together.

When the light appeared before him and he could see that his wife beneath him was unharmed, Feng Yu could no longer hold on. He weakly smiled at Shen Yao and fainted on top of her.

His sudden dizziness threw Shen Yao, who hadn't been afraid before, into a panic. She felt her heart skip a beat, all the strength drain from her body, her teeth chattered involuntarily, and her voice trembled: "Yunhe... Yunhe..."

"Feng Yu... Feng Yu..." Huo Die and Hu Yawu called out Feng Yu's name, but he was so dizzy that they couldn't wake him up.

"Daughter...daughter..." Huo Die called out his daughter a few more times, but seeing that Shen Yao seemed not to hear him, he guessed that she had also become deaf, so he stopped calling.

Hu Yawu said to Huo Die, "Let's move them to the passage first."

Hu Yawu repeated it twice, but Huo Die still didn't react.

Helpless, Hu Yawu patted Huo Die on the shoulder, and when Huo Die looked at him, he said, "Let's move them out first."

Huo Die: "I can't hear it, the explosion hurt my ears."

Hu Yawu understood, and had no choice but to use his spiritual power to control Feng Yu's body and move him to the passage between the third and second rooms.

Huo Die helped Shen Yao up. Fortunately, his daughter was only deaf; she had no external or internal injuries.

Hu Yawu placed a long couch in the passageway and covered it with thick bedding. When Shen Yao went out, he was moving Feng Yu onto the bedding.

Seeing the wound on Feng Yu's back, Shen Yao's heart ached terribly. When the little zombie self-destructed, the moment their golden shield was shattered, Feng Yu pulled her into his arms and lay down, using his body to provide her with the last line of protection.

Even a top-tier immortal saint's physique is incredibly powerful, let alone someone who has cultivated a divine-level body tempering technique, yet he was still injured like this...

Her tears fell like a broken string, and she stroked Feng Yu's back from afar, feeling extremely distressed.

"Don't worry, he's not dead yet." Hu Yawu realized his words sounded a bit off and corrected himself, "His aura is still very strong."

Shen Yao didn't react. Hu Yawu remembered that her ear was injured. He took out paper and pen from his storage ring and wrote, "He's still alive. You're deaf. Treat your ear first." He showed it to her.

Shen Yao took the note and realized that she had explosive deafness. She used the Wood Spirit Healing Technique to repair her eardrum and also repaired Feng Yu's.

She cut Feng Yu's hair, carefully removed the debris from his skin, and used healing magic to treat his injuries. The healing magic circled around Feng Yu's body twice, but the effect was not very significant.

Shen Yao called out "Dad!" Huo Die had recovered by now and replied to his daughter, "Dad's here."

Shen Yao: "Father, why can't my healing spell cure him?"

Huo Die: "The Zombie King's self-destruction produced flames that were highly poisonous. The reason he was injured like this must be because the poisonous fire burned his skin, and the poison invaded and corroded his internal organs."

Shen Yao felt a lump in her throat, and large tears fell from her eyes again.

Huo Die said, "Hey, daughter, don't cry. Take out your Purple Spirit Cloud Furnace. On my way to Yuanzhou to find you, I obtained a lot of spiritual plants. I'll refine a batch of antidote pills for him."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yao stopped crying and handed the storage ring to Huo Die: "Father, the Purple Spirit Cloud Furnace is inside, along with many, many spiritual plants. Take them yourself."

As she spoke, her lips twitched again, and her voice trembled with tears: "We must cure him."

Huo Die: "Don't worry, don't worry, Father will definitely cure him and give you a non-poisonous husband."

Hu Yawu also gave his storage ring to Huo Die: "Old man Huo, I also have quite a few spiritual plants here. Please feel free to use whatever you need."

Shen Yao looked at Hu Yawu gratefully: "Thank you, Brother Wu."

Hu Yawu: "Hey, no need to be so polite. We don't need to say thank you between us. Saying thank you would make us feel distant."

Huo Die: "Your brother Wu is right."

Fortunately, the passage was large enough. Huo Die found an open space, took out the Purple Spirit Cloud Furnace, selected some spiritual plants, set up a spirit-gathering array, and began to refine the antidote pills...
