Post-Apocalyptic: Unlimited Resources, Neighbor's Wife and Sister Beg for the Door to Open

Chapter 120: I'll trade myself for your life! (Please continue reading!)

A massive sword light swept across the sky, instantly cleaving the Blade Mantis's body in two, from head to tail, into two halves.

Lu Zheng landed next to its head, and his flying sword brought back a crystal core.

The fourth-order crystal core is blue-white, while the fifth-order crystal core is dark red.

It is fundamentally different from the third-tier blood-red color.

It is incredibly rich in energy; a single crystal core is as big as an orange.

Lu Zheng didn't have time to appreciate it.

The building that was attacked by the Mantis is now collapsing, and there are many survivors inside.

If he doesn't intervene, all of these people will die.

In an instant, he created a large number of dimensional barriers, completely fixing the entire building in place.

Then, all the people who fell from inside were sealed into cards.

When he arrived at a sloping floor, he saw a middle-aged man holding an unconscious woman in one arm and gripping the wall tightly with the other, his fingers digging into the wall.

The middle-aged man's appearance startled Lu Zheng. He quickly came to his side and used the dimensional barrier to build a platform.

"Uncle, you can put the person here."

He Yongzhou looked at the young man who had suddenly appeared and asked in surprise:
"who are you?"

Lu Zheng countered with a question:
"You must be He Yongzhou, He Manni's father?"

The latter nodded.

"So you know my daughter, so you know me? But my daughter isn't with me."

As he spoke, he had already taken the unconscious woman into his arms and stood on the platform that Lu Zheng had set up.

Lu Zheng smiled and said:
"That's right. He Manni is my woman now, and she sent me to find you."

"Is this Manny's mother? What's wrong, Auntie?"

He was pleasantly surprised to hear Lu Zheng's answer.

Because this means that He Manni is still alive.

But when Lu Zheng mentioned the woman beside him, a look of sadness appeared on his face.

"Yes, this is Manny's mother."

"I failed to protect her properly. After she was injured, she became a vegetable and her life force is very weak now."

Lu Zheng immediately released Shi Xueqi and then had her go in to call He Manni and Zheng Jingyi over.

Upon seeing her unconscious mother, He Manni anxiously grabbed Lu Zheng's arm.

"Honey, there must be a way to save my mom, right?"

Lu Zheng gently stroked her back.

"Don't rush, let Jingyi try it first."

At this moment, Tantai Huanyan, who was standing nearby, suddenly spoke up:

“Honey, maybe I can help too. I can use telepathy to communicate with Auntie and help her wake up.”

"Furthermore, I think the effect would be even better if we gave Auntie a strengthening pill at the same time!"

When He Manni heard about the Strengthening Pill, she knew it was extremely precious; it was what Lu Zheng's women usually competed for.

She quickly said:
"Husband, please give my mother a health-boosting pill! I will do everything I can to repay you."

At this moment, He Yongzhou, who was standing to the side, had already realized that something was wrong with the relationship between He Manni and Lu Zheng.

After all, two girls already call Lu Zheng "husband".

He immediately said:
"Lu Zheng, I can exchange myself for this strengthening pill. Just don't hurt my daughter."

Seeing that the father and daughter were about to sacrifice themselves to save their mother, Lu Zheng quickly interrupted them.

"Manny, Uncle, don't worry."

"A single strengthening pill is nothing; you don't need to make such a guarantee."

As he spoke, he took out a health-strengthening pill and handed it to He Yongzhou.

"Uncle, please give this to Auntie, and then Huanyan and Jingyi will treat her."

He Yongzhou, who was also the head of a large corporation, did not hesitate or delay and immediately fed it to his lover.

At the same time, Tantai Huanyan activated telepathy, and Zheng Jingyi released holy light to replenish her life force, all in just over ten seconds.

He Manni's mother let out a murmur.

"Manny!"

Then she slowly opened her eyes.

He Manni wanted to rush over and hug her mother, but she was worried that her mother's health had not yet recovered and that she might hurt her.

So she simply held her mother's hand gently, tears streaming down her face.

"Mom! You're finally awake!"

Her voice trembled, as if afraid of shattering a beautiful dream.

Even He Yongzhou, this tough businessman, had tears in his eyes and helped his wife sit up. Zheng Jingyi reminded him at the opportune moment:
"Auntie has just recovered and needs to replenish her nutrition."

As he spoke, he looked at Lu Zheng.

Lu Zheng waved his hand, and a bowl of lotus root and pork rib soup appeared in his hand.

“Manni, feed Auntie this soup first, then take Auntie and Uncle back to the cruise ship. There are more supplies there, so let her get some rest.”

He Yongzhou suddenly spoke up:

"There are still more than thirty survivors on this floor, all of whom are family members of employees who fled with me. Could you take them with you?"

Lu Zheng nodded.

"No problem, you can go ahead!"

As he spoke, he gave He Manni a wink, and the latter immediately helped her mother toward the spatial portal.

He Yongzhou naturally couldn't watch his wife and daughter leave his sight, so he followed them inside.

Lu Zheng dealt with the survivors simply by sealing them all into cards and then releasing them from the other side of the door—a quick and easy process.

After dealing with He Manni's matter, he immediately instructed Tantai Huanyan to detect whether there were any other Blade Mantises in Southeast County.

not found.

Then, sensing the direction of Nanlin County, they found one.

Lu Zheng quickly flew away on his sword.

He first killed the Blade Mantis, and then he let Tantai Huanyan sense the location of Lin Xiaxia's parents.

Only one person was found.

He quickly flew into a building, where the people inside looked at him warily.

"Brother, impressive skills! You appeared in front of me without me even noticing."

"I don't remember ever seeing you before. I don't think I've offended you in any way, have I?"

"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

A middle-aged man looked at Lu Zheng cautiously and asked.

Lu Zheng pointed to a woman next to him.

"I want her."

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes flickered, and then he pushed the woman toward Lu Zheng.

"No problem, he's yours, brother. Consider this my way of making you my friend."

Lu Zheng ignored him and instead looked at the panicked woman.

"Auntie, I'm Lin Xiaxia's boyfriend. Has this person bullied you? If you nod, I can kill him right now."

The middle-aged man was startled upon hearing Lu Zheng's words.

"Brother, it's a misunderstanding! I didn't bully her. Her husband died, and she had no one to rely on. She came to me voluntarily."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lina looked at Lu Zheng and asked in surprise:
Where is Xia?

"In a safe place."

Lu Zheng continued to ask:

"Auntie, please answer my question."

Zhao Lina glanced at the middle-aged man, then lowered her head.

"Yes, I was the one who initiated the relationship with him."

"I want to live."

Lu Zheng nodded. This choice was only natural. He took out a third-tier crystal core and tossed it to the middle-aged man.

"This is your payment for taking care of Auntie. We're even now."

After saying that, he released Shi Xueqi, who immediately opened the spatial gate upon her appearance.

"Auntie, Xia is right across the street."

Once Zhao Lina is sent to Lin Xiaoxia's side, there's only one target left.

Lu Zheng set off again, heading towards the Southwest Prefecture.

During the flight, a question suddenly came to his mind.

The beauty pageant is over, but he didn't get to eat a single thing.

Neither of the two extraordinary resource cards have been opened yet.

This is not okay.

We must speed things up.
