Zombie Life Begins in Hongxi Village

The next second, they appeared in Hokkaido, a place known for its simple lifestyle.

This area is sparsely populated with a vegetation coverage of over 70%, and as far as the eye can see, there are endless primeval forests and rolling hills.

Qingqing could no longer suppress the flames burning within her.

Dark silver flames erupted from her body, sweeping outwards like a silver tide.

Wherever it passed, towering ancient trees were instantly ignited, grasslands turned to scorched earth, and streams were evaporated into white mist.

The intense heat of the flames distorted the air, and birds and beasts within a radius of a hundred miles were reduced to ashes before they could even escape.

But she was not consumed by the flames—the flames, though violent, were entirely controlled by the instincts of the bloodline within her.

The burned vegetation and animals were not destroyed in vain.

Their life force was absorbed by the flames, transforming into streams of warm energy that flowed back into her body, filling the energy void left after the bloodline transformation.

The fire raged for nearly half an hour, burning all the plants and animals within a radius of a hundred miles before Qingqing finally extinguished it.

Looking at the desolate forest, Lin Yi couldn't help but sigh, "It's definitely good to have a powerful background. If we had let her run rampant in the country, she would have been branded a demon and attacked by all sides."

As for his personal life, who would dare to meddle in his affairs?

Qingqing stood in the middle of the scorched earth, panting heavily.

The surrounding area was an apocalyptic scene; the forest had turned into charred logs, the hills had been burned into bare mounds of earth, and the ground was still steaming.

She looked down at her hands, then at the ravaged landscape around her, and murmured with lingering fear, "Brother-in-law, what happened to me just now?"

"Just call me by my name." Lin Yi landed from mid-air, stepping onto the scorched earth, her tone indifferent.

"Ah, Ah Yi," Qingqing called out softly, her face slightly flushed.

"What you just did was a normal reaction when your bloodline was first awakened."

Lin Yi walked up to her and said, "You are no longer the inheritor of the Ying Gou bloodline, but a member of the Shenhou clan, a completely new race that I created."

"A divine beast?" Qingqing tilted her head in confusion. She had never heard of this word before.

"It's the name I just chose." Lin Yi was unusually proud.

She didn't know what the name Shenhou would mean in the future, nor did she know the weight she carried as the first descendant of the Shenhou clan.

All she knew was that she was Lin Yi's woman, and this man was the person she trusted most in the world besides her master.

"Alright, it's getting late, let's go back to cultivate." Lin Yi put his arm around her waist, his tone carrying a hint of meaning.

"Mmm." Qingqing buried her face in his chest and responded softly, her voice still carrying a hint of lingering shyness.

The two teleported from Hokkaido back to the Marshal's Mansion in Yun County.

After returning home, Lin Yi spent an hour carefully teaching Qingqing her first cultivation experience...

……

The next morning, Lin Yi got out of bed feeling refreshed.

Just as he expected, after he drank Qingqing's blood, it automatically merged into his ancestral bloodline under the catalysis of his evolutionary instinct, giving him several characteristics and skills of the Ying Gou lineage.

An affinity for malevolent energy, the ability to devour and digest souls, the ability to manipulate corpse energy and malevolent energy to fight enemies, the creation of Xuan Yin Corpse Water—and so on.

These abilities weren't very useful to Lin Yi, but that's how his foundation was built up step by step.

More importantly, he also has Ren Tingting, the heir to the Ying Gou bloodline.

After absorbing the essence of the remnant soul, her strength increased significantly.

It can barely contend with flying zombies, which puts it at the level of a third or fourth generation zombie.

When she grows into a second-generation or even first-generation being, Lin Yi can absorb her again, incorporating the purer essence of Ying Gou into his own bloodline system.

In the morning, the whole family gathered around the eight-immortal table in the main hall for breakfast.

Michelle sat to Lin Yi's left, Ren Tingting to her right, Qingqing next to Ren Tingting, and Mi Nianying next to Michelle.

Uncle Shou served him from the side, while Wang Daniu and Ma Dayong stood guard at the door.

Lin Yi put down her bowl, cleared her throat, and announced in front of everyone that Qingqing would be the third wife of the Lin family from now on.

Ren Tingting already knew; she was also involved in last night's double happiness event. She just smiled at Qingqing with narrowed eyes.

Michelle paused for a moment, then nodded gently to Qingqing.

She was a traditional woman, and she believed in following her husband wherever he went, especially since she was originally only the second wife. She had no objection to this arrangement.

Only Nianying put down her chopsticks, pouted, and muttered, "My brother-in-law is an old cow eating young grass; Qingqing just turned sixteen."

Qingqing's face flushed red, and she lowered her head, not daring to look at anyone.

Lin Yi blushed slightly and coughed dryly, saying, "Let's eat."

……

At 10:30 a.m., Qiu Sheng returned on his bicycle with A Mei on the back, but the protagonist, Uncle Jiu, was nowhere to be seen.

Amei followed behind Qiusheng, her face pale and with an indescribable shyness.

Lin Yi asked Uncle Shou to lead them into the main hall.

Qiu Sheng stood in the hall and explained why Amei hadn't come back yesterday and why Uncle Jiu hadn't come.

It turns out that the day before yesterday was the Ghost Festival, and Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai accidentally caused a large number of wandering ghosts to escape.

One of the female ghosts, wanting to play a trick on them, possessed Ah Mei, causing Ah Mei to be in a coma for more than two hours due to the influx of yin energy.

Uncle Jiu was afraid of encountering ghosts while walking at night, so he told her to stay in Renjia Town for a while.

As Qiu Sheng spoke, his eyes kept glancing at A Mei, and A Mei would also steal a glance at him from time to time. When their eyes met, they would quickly look away.

Qiu Sheng is usually carefree and irresponsible, but today he specially wore a clean suit, his hair was neatly combed, and he even applied some hair oil.

Amei stood there, her pale face flushed with a faint blush.

Lin Yi watched the two of them, their expressions of mutual affection making him feel a little disgusted. There must be something he didn't know about.

"Uncle-Master, my master said that once we've caught all the wandering ghosts and reported back to the Underworld, he'll come over." Qiu Sheng said this to Mi Qilian.

As for Lin Yi, Uncle Jiu hasn't mentioned him since he found out he was with Michelin.

Even when Lin Yi sent someone to invite him over, he made excuses to refuse.

Clearly, he harbored resentment towards Lin Yi, the bastard who stole his white moonlight.

Lin Yi understood; after all, men often have special feelings for their "white moonlight" (idealized female figure).

He could even guess that Uncle Nine must have been kicking himself lately, having missed two opportunities.

"General, Uncle-Master. I'm heading back now; I still have to catch ghosts tonight."

Just as Qiu Sheng turned to go back, Lin Yi suddenly remembered that what Qiu Sheng had just said sounded so familiar!

On the Ghost Festival, watch a play, and defeat the ghost messengers...

Isn't this the plot of Zombie Supreme?

"Qiu Sheng," Lin Yi suddenly spoke, "what was that female ghost's name?"

Qiu Sheng was taken aback, wondering why Lin Yi was asking this, but he still answered honestly:

"Her name is Xiaoli. Uh, although she possessed Amei's body, she's a good ghost and hasn't harmed anyone else."

He said this with a hint of defensiveness in his tone that was barely perceptible.

"It really is a Zombie Supreme storyline!"

Lin Yi gave him a strange look. Could this guy still want to be a ghost knight?

Then he glanced at Amei again; this woman only had a few months left to live.

As Michelin's personal maid, she'd be lucky to get a position in the underworld after her death. I wonder if Qiu Sheng will like her even more then.

Lin Yi originally didn't plan to go out, after all, there were still a lot of things waiting for him to deal with.

But the news brought by Qiu Sheng made him change his mind. Uncle Jiu gathered several of his fellow disciples with good strength to hunt down the escaped wandering ghosts, including Thunder and Lightning King Shi Jian.

Shi Jian is the most skilled and strongest Taoist priest of Maoshan in the contemporary era.

One of his skills, Lightning Strike Fist, can shatter millstones, and Wood Stalk Technique can manipulate the Qi of Wood to create tree stumps for attacks. These two skills represent the pinnacle of Maoshan's lightning and wood-based magic.

Not only is it incredibly powerful, but it's also incredibly cool!

Lin Yi used to want to drink his blood in order to obtain these two skills, but now he wants not only his blood, but also his soul.

Of the four judges under his command, only Long Ci, the judge of rewarding good, and Shi Jian, the judge of punishment, were present. Shi Jian was highly skilled in cultivation, had formidable combat power, and was arrogant and domineering, but not a villain. He was a perfect candidate to be the judge of punishing evil.

With Uncle Nine becoming the Inspector Judge, three of the Four Judges are now in place.
