198: Chapter 198 The Chosen One

Chen Ziang's scream was stuck in his throat, unable to make a sound.

Wang Xiaochun ended Chen Ziang's life using his own methods.

Then, Wang Xiaochun looked at the empty Laboratory; there was nothing left.

Aside from Chen Ziang's corpse, there was only a mirror.

Wang Xiaochun stood before the mirror, looking at her face.

The person in the reflection was undoubtedly very unfamiliar.

Wang Xiaochun instinctively touched her face.

Delicate and smooth, without even a single wrinkle.

She didn't know how long it had been since she last saw this face of hers.

She should still be in the prime of her youth, but because of Chen Ziang, she had suffered so much hardship for no reason.

In the end, she had looked neither human nor ghost.

Even now, Wang Xiaochun hadn't figured out what her current state was.

She didn't know where she should go from now on, nor if she would turn into one of those monsters from before.

Moreover, Wang Xiaoman was dead.

For a moment, Wang Xiaochun thought about just ending her life like this.

Living didn't seem to have much meaning anyway.

Wang Xiaochun slowly extended her claws.

The nails on her claws gradually grew longer.

There was still some of Chen Ziang's blood remaining on them.

Wang Xiaochun reached out and unhurriedly wiped the blood off her claws.

Then, she brought her claws to her neck.

"Just one stroke and it'll be over."

"Just like this, I can die."

Wang Xiaochun muttered to herself.

However, suicide required courage.

Looking at herself in the mirror, she felt as if she had lived a whole lifetime.

Gradually, a hint of reluctance emerged in Wang Xiaochun's heart.

Although she had taken her revenge.

But Wang Xiaoman had died just like that.

She wasn't resigned to it.

She was hesitating.

On one hand, having lost her sister, she didn't want to live alone; on the other hand, Wang Xiaochun felt afraid of dying like this.

Humans naturally fear death.

Even Wang Xiaochun, who had just brutally tortured and killed Chen Ziang, was no exception.

Ultimately, however, Wang Xiaochun lost the desire to live.

Aiming her claws at her neck, she directly stabbed them in deep.

But the pain she expected didn't come.

"Are you crazy?!"

The one who stopped Wang Xiaochun was Meng Hangfei.

Originally, Meng Hangfei had only come to find Huo Sixian and the others, but he hadn't expected to find them gone.

Just as Meng Hangfei was about to leave, he suddenly discovered there was still someone in this Laboratory.

And that person was none other than Wang Xiaochun.

Meng Hangfei moved very quickly, reaching Wang Xiaochun's side in almost a single bound.

Meng Hangfei's voice carried a hint of reproach.

"You want to die that badly?"

"How easy is it to die? In this Post-Apocalyptic World, the one thing that isn't lacking is death."

"Think about your sister!"

This sentence from Meng Hangfei finally pulled Wang Xiaochun's thoughts back.

Meng Hangfei let out a low growl.

"Do you remember what your sister said before she died?"

"She told you to live on!"

Actually, Meng Hangfei didn't know the person in front of him was Wang Xiaochun.

After all, Meng Hangfei had only seen Wang Xiaochun after her transformation.

Right now, Wang Xiaochun was very beautiful; it should be said that she wasn't bad-looking to begin with.

She had only been worn down by Chen Ziang's torment before.

But now that her body had undergone Evolution, it had once again reached its peak state.

At first, Meng Hangfei couldn't recognize Wang Xiaochun at all.

But when Wang Xiaochun brought her claws to her neck, Meng Hangfei finally realized that this woman with a fair face and a good figure was actually Wang Xiaochun!

Although Meng Hangfei was shocked, after getting closer and seeing Wang Xiaochun's claws, he became even more certain.

This person was Wang Xiaochun.

After all, a human-mutated tiger with a black-and-white color scheme was rare.

Wang Xiaochun regained some of her senses after hearing Meng Hangfei's words.

"I..."

Wang Xiaochun looked at Meng Hangfei blankly.

She wanted to speak, but was directly interrupted by Meng Hangfei.

"In this world, how easy is it to die?"

"There are corpses everywhere outside; human life is the least valuable thing."

"But you've suffered so much before, and now that Chen Ziang is finally dead and things are looking up, are you sure you want to die now?"

Meng Hangfei rattled off a long string of words.

Wang Xiaochun listened in a daze.

While Wang Xiaochun was still dazed, Meng Hangfei sighed slightly.

"Fine, you people are just like this, not taking human life seriously, thinking everything ends once you die?"

As Meng Hangfei spoke, he crouched down and picked Wang Xiaochun up in a princess carry.

Wang Xiaochun's center of gravity shifted, and she instinctively threw her arms around Meng Hangfei's shoulders.

Wang Xiaochun hadn't yet reacted to the current situation.

But Meng Hangfei didn't give her the chance.

With a stride of his long legs, he carried Wang Xiaochun and walked away.

As he walked, he said, "We have to hurry. The Boss and the others are probably already waiting for us at the base entrance."

"The people who lived with you before are all willing to come with us. Didn't you ask us to save you before?"

"Now, the first person to get cold feet is actually you?"

Hearing Meng Hangfei's words, Wang Xiaochun felt embarrassed.

Although what Meng Hangfei said was right.

And the facts were indeed so.

But...

Whenever Wang Xiaochun thought of Wang Xiaoman, a sharp pain shot through her heart.

After all... Wang Xiaoman's death was so tragic.

And as her older sister, she had seen it with her own eyes.

Wang Xiaochun couldn't forgive herself; if she had been able to awaken her Superpower a step earlier, would Wang Xiaoman have... not died...

Meng Hangfei glanced sideways at Wang Xiaochun in his arms.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."

"Wang Xiaoman's death has nothing to do with you; it's not something that could have been solved by you Awakening your Superpower a step earlier."

"The culprit behind all this was Chen Ziang, and you've already dealt with him."

When Meng Hangfei entered the Laboratory just now, he had already seen Chen Ziang's wretched state.

He also knew the depth of Wang Xiaochun's hatred for Chen Ziang.

At the same time, he realized how ruthless Wang Xiaochun could be.

"However, dealing with one Chen Ziang doesn't solve the evil at all."

"In this Post-Apocalyptic World, the fact that you've awakened a Superpower means you are a chosen one."

Meng Hangfei's words now left Wang Xiaochun somewhat confused.

"What do you mean by 'the chosen one'?"

Meng Hangfei felt Wang Xiaochun's gaze and instinctively looked into the distance.

"At least that's what I believe. I've always felt that those with Superpowers are the chosen ones."

"Isn't there a saying? 'When Heaven is about to confer a great responsibility on any man...'"
