Lord of End of World - Chapter 150

It was impossible to avoid Song Haoxuan’s monitoring without learning to control one’s emotions, likes and dislikes. He Jin had only been close to Lu Yun for more than a year and he hasn’t dealt with anyone else. Aside for a few people with who he had a particularly deep bond with, his team members gradually leaned towards Song Haoxuan and avoided him as if he were a viper. It was still Song Haoxuan who first noticed that he had broken through the fourth-level. At that time, Song Haoxuan had a change of heart and began to reuse him again, otherwise, his and Lu Yun’s lives would’ve become more and more sad.

For a long time, he hadn’t been close to anyone. So, when he suddenly saw the young man’s blooming smile, He Jin narrowed his eyes from the dizziness. His dry eyes couldn’t help but fill with a trace of water. He hurriedly lowered his head, moved the plates in front of him towards the teenager and numbly said, “Eat something to cushion your stomach. Unfortunately, there’s no more ability user to provide you with cheesecake anymore.”

Speaking of that, his voice was unusually obscure, but the weakness in his eyes quickly disappeared, replaced by a steadfast light as he added, “However, there will be some in the future.” The teenager was like a bright light for him in the endless darkness, guiding him when he couldn’t move. As long as the young man was there, he would not be beaten down no matter what.

“Okay.” Gong Lixin smiled as he turned towards the few plates of food. He asked for a pair of chopsticks before he picked up a dish similar to bacon, “Is this meat?”

“Yes, Song Haoxuan killed more than 20000 civilians in one breath a year ago. All the meat that was cut from then hasn’t been eaten yet.” He Jin said blandly. He never touched this meat. Although he was nicknamed Poisonous Wolf, he knew that he was still a human being, unlike some, who had already fallen into being an evil spirit of hell.

Although for Gong Lixin, he had eaten many things in his previous life, but this kind of meat, even back then, he never thought of trying it. Seeing a lot of people eating it though, he frowned and felt very uncomfortable. It was clearly another Underground Palace; full of rotten stench and eyes full of slyness and calculation making Gong Lixin sulk.

“What’s wrong? Uncomfortable?” He Jin asked in a whisper. He was focused on the young man’s emotions thus when he saw this, he gently patted the other’s smooth hair.

“The atmosphere here is very gloomy and makes me unreasonably upset!” Gong Lixin said with a frown, then looked straight at He Jin. He straightforwardly asked, “Did Lu Yun tell you about it? Would you like to follow us?”

He Jin pursed his lips for a while. At the end of his silence, he said, “If I followed you, you will completely become the enemy of Song Haoxuan. If you want to get this disinfectant then, you will have to pay a great price. I don’t want to be a burden to you in the end. Take a look at it first. Song Haoxuan will be giving a live demonstration, so decide after seeing the real efficacy of the disinfectant.”

“His potion is not rare, only uncommon.” Gong Lixin waved his hand, his words were simple and straightforward, causing He Jin’s heart to beat wildly. His mouth couldn’t help but rise up at the corners. The young man really hadn’t changed at all. He was always so relaxed and made He Jin happy when he was with him. His heart that had been as numb as death, instantly restored to life.

Seeing He Jin smile, his turquoise eyes gleam with a layer of soft light and his cold, facial lines softening, Gong Lixin also smiled back. The troubles of his heart calmed down then and he whispered in a soft voice, soft enough so now one else hears, “Relax. His medicine may stop zombie infection, but it’s not that great. We don’t lack these kinds of things.” There were so many things he couldn’t explain in detail.

He Jin’s eyes flickered and he fixed his eyes on the young man for a while. He nodded slowly, “That’s fine, I’ll follow you then. Song Haoxuan doesn’t want me to leave, but he said he won’t prevent any ability users from leaving. So, if I ask him in public, he would definitely agree just to save face.”

“That’s good.” Gong Lixin smiled comfortably and placed a piece of dried sweet potato in his mouth to savour it.

As soon as Song Haoran had entered the hall, he was called to sit next to Song Haoxuan. The two maintained a false front as they chatted amicably with each other. During the chat, Song Haoran right away rejected Song Haoxuan’s solicitations after which, Song Haoxuan was unwilling to continue chatting with this cousin of his. When the two people were still competitors, they didn’t like seeing the other’s face in their own territory. If Song Haoran had agreed to join his base, Song Haoxuan would definitely feel strange.

Seeing his cousin frequently glance at the youth and He Jin and his face becoming more and more ugly with a hint of sourness, Song Haoxuan hooked up his lips and laughed. But soon, he couldn’t laugh anymore. He saw He Jin slowly stood up and bow towards his head and say, “Leader, you once said that if any of us wants to leave, you won’t stop them. Does this matter still apply today?”

The hall became quiet for a moment before becoming noisy. It was not easy to enter Song family’s base. A person without a certain level of strength couldn’t even think about it. Now that the disinfectant was coming out, how many more people wants to get in, but still can’t and this idiot wants to leave?

Song Haoxuan barely kept the warm smile of his face and answered, “It still counts. Where are you going?”

“I’ll be going to Pu’an County with Gong family tomorrow. I would like to thank the leader for the help in these past three years.” He Jin looked at Song Haoxuan, his eyes gleaming with pride and arrogance. Where was the He in who was ground into the mud and was silent and humble? In a trance, Song Haoxuan’s saw the return of the unruly wolf who had been so reckless at first, yet had simmered down after a while.

Turned out he had been played!? One day, He Jin would cry and beg him for mercy on his knees! Secretly grinding his teeth, Song Haoxuan slowly said, “I wish you all a safe journey!”

From the corner of his eyes, Song Haoxuan saw Gong Yuanhang smiling and nodding at He Jin, welcoming him to his base. He scooped up his wine glass and covered his lips to hide his sneer. Hah~ Dare to go against me? I only hope that you don’t regret it after this conference!

Several chiefs from other bases saw his sneer and quickly lowered their heads and wiped their sweat. Master Song was brutal and cold-hearted, how could he let go of one of his subordinates? The Gong family’s base will surely be miserable! They didn’t know what price they will be forced to pay in the future!?

However, contrary to their thoughts, the Gong family’s base would become the security everyone sought in the future. In order to join Gong family’s base, they were the ones willing to pay any price.

After this small episode, talk and laughter once again resounded in the conference hall.

After being hit hard by Gong Lixin and his group of people, Ma Zhihong went out to find someone to vent his frustration. After he felt comfortable once more, he took his seat around the front. Although he was a rare fourth-level master, he was still inferior to He Jin and thus, his seat was arranged as such.

Seeing Gong Lixin sitting close to him, he was stunned for a moment, but there was a dark light in Ma Zhihong’s eyes. Gong Lixin suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the young man in Ma Zhihong’s arms. He murmured, “Fang Ye?” He instantly thought of the bottle of aphrodisiac in Li Donsheng’s space. It’s almost been three years and he’s finally found the person to use it on.

“Gong Lixin?” Fang Ye whispered in surprise after getting a clear view of the young man. His eyes burst with jealousy then.

Although he was a water ability user, his skill was poor and so was his courage. He didn’t dare go out and hunt zombies, so he hadn’t been able to advance and could only rely on selling his body to make a living. Now that there were few women in the apocalyptic days, the master ability users in the base were also looking for young men like him who were handsome and pretty. Play around and after a good meal, if one was lucky, the master would take care of you and you could have a good life for a long while.

But he had been unlucky and had gotten stuck with Ma Zhihong. Ma Zhihong swung both ways. Men and women were both to his taste and there were also the many abnormal games he played in bed before he was satisfied. In just the span of three years, Fang Ye quickly languished. His pale face had become haggered and his body was thin and weak, almost like a walking dead.

However, Gong Lixin sitting next to him had a pink complexion and smooth black hair. Although the other was thin and slender, he was still very well-proportioned. There was also a certain allure to him being neatly wrapped in military uniform. No one needed to ask to know that Gong Lixin had a very good life, which couldn’t be said for others. Sitting side by side, the difference between them was like Heaven and Earth. What made him even more uncomfortable was that the Poisonous Wolf who had never shown a smile since he joined the base, was gentle and considerate towards him. The care he showed and the love flowing from those turquoise eyes were so intense that even Fang Ye felt breathless at the sight.

Seeing Gong Lixin staring at him, he looked away casually. Fang Ye clenched his fist as his face became slightly twisted. He had such good luck! What a marvel! Glancing at Gong Lixin’s ordinary black eyes, he scorned contemptuously.

“Do you know him?” Ma Zhihong asked Fang Ye in a whisper.

“Of couse I know him!” Fang Ye smiled sullenly and leaned in to whisper in Ma Zhihong’s ear, telling him about feeding Gong Lixin’s aphrodisiac to lure his future brother-in-law to create a scandal. Unexpectedly, the seemingly pure and flawless young man’s bone were actually quite lustful and Ma Zhihong’s groin itched. Now, he wanted to get his hand on the other even more!

“This kind of person loves to pretend to be pure. Let’s make him excited and see if he can still pretend!” Fang Ye said as he probed into Ma Zhihong’s jacket pocket and took out a blue pill, turning it into dust before slipping it into the wine glass in front of them. The strong aroma and spicy taste of the liquor would cover the bitterness of the powder. Ma Zhihong used this method often to confuse and rape some unsuspecting men and women. Fang Ye himself was one of the victims.

Gong Lixin seemed not to suspect anything. But in fact, he heard the conversation between the two very clearly. He slowly raised the corner of his lips even as his eyes were cold.

“Gong Lixin, I heard that you’re old classmates with Xiaoye? That you can still meet in these apocalyptic days, this must be fate! Come, have a drink with us! This Laozi’s old cellar has many fragrant liquor, it’s better to not waste such things!” Ma Zhihong smiled gracefully and pushed the glass of wine in front of the young man.

Gong Lixin looked towards the two with a blank expression and did not make a move. He Jin leaned his cheek on one hand as his face was filled with interest of seeing a good show. No matter how much he isolated himself, he knew who Ma Zhihong was and what he did. But he wasn’t worried at all. His machinations were quite low-leveled and only idiots would fall for it. His Lixin had never been an idiot.

“Come here and have a drink! I’ll start first.” Ma Zhihong drank the wine in his hand in one gulp, then took the glass in front of Gong Lixin and pushed it into the other’s hand.

Gong Lixin’s face became cold. As soon as his hand was touched, he turned his wrist and poured all the wine on Ma Zhihong’s face before pushing him away with a push of his palm. Although he was not afraid of poison and had nothing against them, but he still hated drugs such as aphrodisiac. This glass of wine, he didn’t want to touch it, but because of the other man, he had to touch it!

Ma Zhihon was knocked over the table and fell onto the floor, sliding quite far. His hand covered his chest where he was hit and for a long time, he couldn’t stand up. His hair and face were covered in wine and he looked miserable and embarrassed.

Everyone was stunned by this scene and no one uttered a word. However, the young man hadn’t relieved himself enough. He raised the glass in his hand and threw it in between Ma Zhihong’s brows. A fierce whistle resounded in the quiet hall. If what they heard was right, then Ma Zhihong would definitely die.

Song Haoxuan’s eyes dimmed. He raised his hand and threw a fireball towards the thrown glass. The glass fell to the ground then and cracked and the white wine inside burned without leaving a trace.

Gong Lixin would never give up before he succeeded in landing his single blow. He glanced at Ma Zhihong as if he was looking at a dead man. His fingers closed together to form a knife to kill.

Gong Lixin had seriously violated Song Haoxuan’s limit by killing in his territory. His eyes were full of killing intent. Disregarding the dozen or more master ability users belonging to Gong family’s base, he summoned a thick lightning to slash off the young man’s hand.

Something hit Gong Lixin’s body and made it numb, stopping his movements. He furrowed his brow and looked at the back of his somewhat darkened hand, flicking it to make the numbness subside. He stared in amazement before taking his next shot at Ma Zhihong’s head.

“It turns out that this is the feeling of being struck by lightning.” He held his injured arm and looked at Song Haoxuan, the person behind the attack. He slowly said, “The strength is good.” Gong Lixin felt a little humble when he could be hurt with a single blow. It seemed that if his cultivation level didn’t increase, he would soon be overtaken by these ability users.

Song Haoxuan struggled to maintain the calm expression on his face, but his heart trembled. How could it be that his full strength only hurt the young man’s skin? He was recognized as the strongest in Country C. And from the mouth of this young man, it was only worth as ‘good’. If that’s so, what level was he?

There was silence in the hall. Everyone watched the young man kick away Ma Zhihong’s body with an incredulous expression. Was he suicidal? Was he trying to kill Master Song? Was he crazy? No, no, he was obviously not crazy. He was only scorched by Master Song’s lightning. His strength was obviously above that of Master Song! When did Country C have such a demon? Why didn’t they know? The leaders of the different bases said to themselves in horror.

And Fang Ye was so scared that he peed himself. He lifted his foot and wanted to leave, but he was forced to sit back down by a sneering He Jin.
