70: Chapter 70 The Operation of the Holy Descendant

"Ah!"

Struck by his unexpected tease, Wang Yalan froze in place instantly.

The determined look she had just a moment ago turned into sudden panic, and her long eyelashes fluttered rapidly like the wings of a startled butterfly.

Her fair cheeks flushed a visible crimson, which spread all the way to the tips of her ears, and even her slender neck took on a faint pink hue.

She instinctively tried to pull her hand back, but Chen Ze's palm closed firmly around it, his grip gentle yet inescapable, locking her small hand securely in his palm.

"Brother Ze, Wang Dun is still here!"

Wang Yalan's voice was as soft as a mosquito's buzzing, trembling with obvious shyness. The moment the words left her lips, her cheeks turned an even deeper shade of red.

She had already prepared to give herself to him tonight, but she never expected Chen Ze to bring it up so proactively.

"It's fine, it's fine, I didn't hear anything. You two continue, I'm going to go tidy up the beds in the Fortress!"

Fatty's emotional intelligence was always on point; seeing the two of them getting lovey-dovey, he immediately found an excuse to slip away.

Chen Ze didn't even look at Fatty, just waved a hand at him, the meaning clear as day.

Get lost quickly, don't disturb my good time.

"Now it's just the two of us!"

Chen Ze lowered his gaze to stare at the blushing girl before him, all the sharpness in his eyes receding, leaving only undisguised affection.

He slowly released her hand and instead reached out to gently wrap his arms around her slender waist, pulling her toward him with a gentle force.

Wang Yalan went stiff, her heartbeat racing almost out of control, thumping in her chest, and her own rapid breathing filled her ears.

She lowered her head slightly, not daring to meet his burning gaze, looking extremely shy and moving.

"Chen Ze, I haven't bathed in several days. Let me go back and tidy up, and tonight... I will definitely serve you well."

Her soft, sweet voice was wrapped in deep shyness and mixed with the thoughtfulness of a devoted wife, instantly making Chen Ze's blood boil.

Damn it! How did this little girl learn this? How the hell am I supposed to hold back now!

Just as Chen Ze's heart was pounding wildly, Wang Yalan summoned all her courage, stood on her tiptoes, and pressed her soft lips lightly against the corner of his mouth for a quick kiss.

Her lips were warm and soft, and they parted the moment they touched.

Before Chen Ze could reach out to hold her, she turned around in a panic like a startled fawn, her ears burning red, and hurried back to the Blockhouse with unsteady steps.

Chen Ze was left alone outside. He instinctively touched the corner of his mouth with his fingertips, where the lingering sensation of her touch remained.

The evening breeze blew past, but it couldn't suppress the rising heat in his heart. He looked toward the Blockhouse, his Adam's apple bobbing heavily.

It looks like there's going to be a big battle tonight!

After letting the evening breeze blow on him for a while, Chen Ze finally felt the heat subside a little and returned to the Blockhouse.

As soon as he entered, he saw Wang Dun grinning foolishly at him, showing all his teeth.

"Brother Ze, why did you just get back? By the way, you haven't been keeping things from Sister Yalan this whole time, have you?"

Before Chen Ze could reply, Fatty started rambling on his own, patting his chest like an experienced expert.

"We've all transmigrated to this hellish place in the apocalypse. Zombies and mutant beasts are everywhere outside; no one knows if they'll survive until tomorrow. Listen to your buddy's advice: enjoy life while you can, if you want it, go for it!"

Chen Ze found it both annoying and funny, so he raised his hand and punched him in the chest, retorting irritably.

"Damn it, are you actually lecturing me now? It's been three days since we arrived in the apocalypse, have you enjoyed yourself yet? Bring her over for me to see one of these days!"

"Hey, before this, I didn't have the strength, so I couldn't speak with confidence. Of course it was hard to find someone!"

As he spoke, he pulled up the system private chat interface and shared it right in front of Chen Ze. The screen was densely packed with messages from strange women.

"Look, I just showed off a little bit of wealth, and so many little sisters are crying and begging to stick to me, actively wanting to pair up with me to live."

Chen Ze scanned it and saw that quite a few girls had sent private messages. Some of the photos uploaded were very explicit; if they were any more revealing, they probably wouldn't pass the system review and their accounts would be forcibly blocked.

The smile on his face faded slightly, and he reminded him seriously.

"You! It's fine to chat privately for fun, but remember, you absolutely cannot leak our Fortress coordinates!"

Seeing Chen Ze's serious expression and that he was no longer joking around, Fatty immediately reined in his smugness and patted his chest in assurance.

"Don't worry, Brother Ze, I have that much sense! I'm just looking at photos of girls in black stockings online; I won't actually mess around with them!"

Chen Ze nodded.

He still had that much trust in Fatty.

After the last adventure in the Light Curtain Forest, Chen Ze had figured out his character. Even though he was usually happy-go-lucky, he was actually quite reliable when it came to serious matters.

"Alright, then keep playing! By the way, just stay on the first floor tonight. Listen for any movement outside, and if there's any situation, just let me know!"

Chen Ze finished speaking and went upstairs. When passing the third floor, he faintly heard the sound of water, which instantly caused another wave of heat to rise in his heart.

"Damn it, Chen Ze, look at how pathetic you are. You've waited for days, can't you wait a little longer?"

He stopped in the hallway, smiled bitterly to himself, and then returned to the fourth floor.

Since he had nothing better to do, Chen Ze opened the system panel, preparing to chat in the group.

As soon as he opened it, friend requests immediately started "ding-ding-ding-ing."

Chen Ze frowned slightly and clicked to view them.

He discovered that, apart from some strangers he had no connection with, "Saint Descending Upon the World" had sent over 20 messages alone.

"Big Shot Li Yunlong, why did you delete me from your friends list?"

"Big Shot Li Yunlong, is that location you mentioned reliable? Please don't lie to me!"

"Big Shot, we are about to arrive at that location. Is there anything we need to pay attention to? Can you let us know?"

"You surnamed Li, you f***ing scammed me! The Light Barrier was clearly going to disappear tonight, and mutant beasts would definitely come out of the forest then. Why didn't you tell me?!"

"Give me back my Contract Scroll, or I will definitely expose you in the regional chat and ruin your reputation!"

As Chen Ze read on, he burst out laughing.

"This guy actually went! And he's talking about ruining my reputation? What a load of bull. Am I the kind of person who cares about reputation?"

Regional Chat Channel.

At this moment, the messages were scrolling by at high speed.

Saint Descending Upon the World: "Brothers in the region, open your eyes wide. I swear on my personality that Shanghai Li Yunlong is a complete and utter scammer! He scammed me out of a scroll worth 5000 survival coins!"

Saint Descending Upon the World: "Everyone, from now on, do not trust him, do not buy his things, and do not sell him anything! Let's boycott him together!"

Garden Castle: "Brothers, do you know what happened?"

Xiaoyao Lang: "No idea. It seems Big Shot Li Yunlong used fake news to scam him out of some scroll?"

Eternal Flame: "Big Shot Li Yunlong scammed him? Why do I find that so hard to believe!"

Jinxiu Longwan Li Shuai: "What's so hard to believe? If you ask me, that Li Yunlong got rich by scamming. Otherwise, how could he level up faster than Brother Kun?"

Nongfu Spring is a Bit Sweet: "Damn, I knew it! Where else would he get so many supplies? It turns out they were all scammed!"

Maruko Loves Fishing: "Big Shot Li Yunlong is definitely not that kind of person! They are just talking nonsense!"

Chen Ze knew that Saint Descending Upon the World had some influence, but he didn't expect that nearly half of the people in the chat channel would be taking his side.

"You tried to scam me, and now you're trying to shift the blame? I'll make sure your hard-earned image completely collapses today!"
