Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

The rain stopped the moment this woman appeared.

A large, round moon and a sky full of stars appeared in the night sky, as if the rain had never fallen.

The moonlight fell on her hair, as if gilding her with a layer of silver.

She stood beneath the stars and moon, her aura blending seamlessly with the entire world, as if she were a part of the night sky itself.

At the same time, the eyes of Ah Xing, Yi Ping, Du Fei, and others became empty and blank.

Like puppets controlled by invisible threads, they turned around in perfect unison and walked home with sleepwalking steps.

Lin Yi did not stop them, but simply watched the scene quietly. Then, when she looked at the woman, she revealed an expression of "I knew it."

It really was her, the Holy Mother of Yaochi!

"The Earth Book... what a useful tool for showing off!" he thought to himself.

To control celestial phenomena with a mere thought—that's incredibly impressive.

He slowly descended from the sky to stand before the Holy Mother of the Jade Pool, and said with certainty, "You are... the Holy Mother of the Jade Pool?!"

"Pluto, Lin Yi."

The Holy Mother of Yaochi looked at Lin Yi calmly and accurately called out his name and identity, her tone composed, as if she had everything under control.

However, only she knew that just now, she had used the Earth Book to explore.

The only information about the young man in the book of the earth was a single line: "Lin Ming, King of the Underworld, King of Liu Qiu Kingdom".

There is nothing else.

This situation indicates that the other party has exceeded the scope that the Earth Book can explore.

But how is this possible? The other party is clearly not from the Pangu clan. How could a mere Underworld King shield himself from the Earth Book's detection?!

Could it be... another being like the Lord of Mount Tai?

But then she thought, so what if he is the Lord of Mount Tai?

They are nothing but remnants of the old era!

How can they compare to the Pangu clan? They were the ones who started this era. The story of Pangu creating the world is not just a saying.

Even those powerful individuals who could explore beyond the limits of the Earth Book were only barely reaching the threshold of the Pangu Clan.

She looked at the composed Lin Yi, her brows furrowed slightly, and said in a condescending tone:

"You know me? It seems Ksitigarbha values ​​you highly, even telling you ancient secrets."

Then her tone suddenly turned cold as she questioned, "As the King of the Underworld, why did you indiscriminately kill mortals just now?"

It seems this Holy Mother needs to ask Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva whether the laws of the underworld have been changed.

Upon hearing this question, Lin Yi immediately understood. It seemed that the Holy Mother of Yaochi did not hold a high position in the Pangu Clan, or rather, in the Kunlun Clan.

Otherwise, she would have known her approximate strength, and she certainly wouldn't have spoken to him in such a tone as if he were a subordinate.

Indeed, she was merely a tool to imprison fate.

A tool is just a tool.

No matter how great she claims to be or how sacred her mission is, it cannot change her essential nature as a tool.

Anything that is a tool can never be considered high in status!

Moreover, it's too early to call it great!

In the original drama, she and Fuxi admitted that Pangu had given up on this era, and that if the price of destroying destiny was the destruction of the world, they would do it without hesitation.

The core of the Pangu Clan is the Eternal Kingdom; everything else is unimportant.

hiss--

wrong!

Lin Yi suddenly recalled a scene from the finale of My Date with a Vampire, where Mao You asked Fu Xi, "Do you still have any humanity left?"

As a result, both Fuxi and Yaochi Shengmu spoke at the same time, expressionless, "No."

And there was the composure with which they spoke of themselves as instruments of fate, and the longing with which they spoke of an eternal kingdom.

They seem to have been completely brainwashed; they don't resemble the Creator Gods at all.

A chilling thought suddenly rose in Lin Yi's mind.

The Pangu clan, these man-made gods, may have been tampered with by the Kunlun clan from the very beginning of their creation.

Although they escaped the control of fate, they could not escape the control of the Kunlun tribe!

The most fundamental instinct of a race is to survive and reproduce.

But the Pangu tribe seems to have no concept of this at all.

To say that one should be a tool without hesitation, or to say that one should be exterminated without hesitation, completely violates the most basic survival instinct of a group!

This situation only occurs with puppets and robots that are completely controlled.

The only Pangu who might have escaped Kunlun's control was Jiang Chen—the strongest member of the Pangu clan!

Lin Yi even suspected that Jiang Chen's amnesia was not caused by fate manipulating things.

Rather, it was a side effect of his sudden awakening in order to get rid of Kunlun's shady dealings.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the Pangu Clan members who appeared—whether it was Fuxi, the Holy Mother of Yaochi, or Mingri, or that middle-aged elder—all looked like pawns carrying a mission.

Jiang Chen had his own will, acted completely as he pleased, and even looked down on the Pangu clan.

In this way, it makes sense that Fuxi ultimately wanted to shoot Kuang Tianyou and Ma Xiaoling together.

The Ma family was a pawn created by fate to deal with Pangu, while Kuang Tianyou was a Pangu evolved from Jiang Chen's bloodline, without any manipulation.

For the Kunlun tribe, Kuang Tianyou was a potential threat, after all, Pangu was the world's top fighting force.

In fact, later in the story, Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva gave a vague reminder, saying that Pangu was too amazing.

Unfortunately, neither Fuxi nor the Holy Mother of Yaochi seemed to understand.

Of course, it's also possible that they were powerless to help themselves and simply couldn't understand it.

Lin Yi was startled by her own bold guess.

But the more he thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed, and he inexplicably felt as if he had uncovered a corner of the world's secrets.

Looking at the Holy Mother of Yaochi who was high above him and questioning him, he suddenly felt a little sorry for her.

They possess the power to destroy the world and defy fate, yet they have no life of their own, merely a tool programmed with a set program.

The Holy Mother of Yaochi was originally waiting for Lin Yi to back down, or at least to offer some emotional support.

Unexpectedly, she saw a hint of... pity in Lin Yi's eyes?

Her anger flared instantly. Who do you think you are? A mere Hades, what right do you have to pity me, the goddess Pangu?!

She was originally supposed to be born 62 years later.

Unexpectedly, Elder Kunlun suddenly sent a message saying that the plan had changed and that she should be born ahead of schedule.

However, since the Red Snow Virus was not yet fully developed, she had to deplete her own resources to forcibly accelerate the virus's creation.

Even though she was the god in charge of plagues, creating this virus that could kill the Pangu clan ahead of time consumed most of her essence, making her feel "exhausted" for the first time.

She was already in a terrible mood, and now a mere Hades dared to look down on her and even look at her with that kind of gaze!

She immediately decided to teach this arrogant guy a lesson.

Let him know that even if she's not in the right state of mind, she's not someone a mere Hades like him can provoke!
