91: Chapter 91 Xiao Sinian is courting death

Qi Yin did not hesitate at all; she reached out and pulled Xiao Sinian up.

She unleashed her Spiritual power, which had just upgraded to the peak of the third level, enveloping Xiao Sinian directly like a scanner.

Xiao Sinian's body stiffened slightly, and a sharp pain shot through his mind; that was the symptom of having one's Spiritual power invaded.

But he gritted his teeth, not saying a word, trying his best to relax his nerves and entrust his body to her.

It was one thing not to check, but the sight was shocking.

Qi Yin's heart trembled violently; Xiao Sinian was truly being too reckless.

Around the originally vigorous thunder-fire Supernatural Ability cluster at his lower abdomen, there were indeed several wisps of extremely rampant black energy entwined.

But perhaps because of the suppression from Xiao Sinian's own powerful Supernatural Ability, these few wisps of black energy could only be confined to one corner.

However, this forced suppression was ultimately not the best method; the black energy was clearly constantly eroding and consuming Xiao Sinian's Supernatural Ability.

No wonder, during the massive zombie horde just now, she was able to upgrade, while Xiao Sinian could only consume his Supernatural Ability without any signs of improvement.

This was because a portion of his Supernatural Ability was constantly fighting against the terrible aftereffects caused by absorbing unpurified crystal cores.

Qi Yin withdrew her Spiritual power, looking at the man in front of her with complex eyes.

It was simply terrifying that he had actually been relying on his own formidable strength to endure this backlash.

Just how much tenacious willpower and powerful Supernatural Ability must that require?

"You... you are really being reckless."

Qi Yin opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment, not knowing if it was admiration or...

Xiao Sinian read the meaning in her eyes, tugged at the corner of his mouth, and revealed a helpless, faint smile.

"It seems... you've discovered it."

The two looked at each other, and the air was filled with a complex emotion that was heavy yet tinged with mutual appreciation.

Qi Yin was puzzled. "Why do this?"

Xiao Sinian turned his head, his deep gaze landing directly on her face, very helplessly, and then his line of sight drifted toward the dead silent laboratory building outside the RV.

After several seconds, he finally said, "In order to become stronger."

Only by becoming stronger can one protect the people one wants to protect.

Just these few simple words.

There was no explanation, nor was there any complaint.

But Qi Yin understood; the Apocalypse is a man-eating world. Being one step slower, one fraction weaker, the price is immeasurable.

Wasn't she the same? She knew the feeling of being pushed to the brink of desperation all too well.

A feeling of urgency and stuffiness suddenly came over her again, mixed with an indescribable... discomfort.

She couldn't let Xiao Sinian keep enduring like this; otherwise, he would be dragged down sooner or later.

Think of a way, think of a way; she didn't want to lose a powerful partner.

Qi Yin closed her eyes and hurriedly called out Xiao Yu, who was obsessed with growing vegetables and fruits.

"Hey! Is there any way to completely clear out this zombie virus residue that has infiltrated the Spiritual power? Hurry!"

After a short silence, Xiao Yu said slowly, "Generally speaking, such potions are sold in the mall, but given that the mall level is relatively low, it's not available for now, but..."

"But what? Hurry up and tell me!"

Xiao Yu touched the tip of its ear, "Emm... didn't the mall come with a hidden bonus gift pack when it upgraded before? It contains random rare items; maybe you can open a Deep Purification Potion from it."

This type of potion is specifically used for clearing high-level energy contamination and Spiritual power virus attachment.

A hidden bonus gift pack? Qi Yin suddenly remembered; it seemed there really was such a thing.

It was just that she had been busy with other things and hadn't gotten around to it at all.

"What is the probability of getting the Deep Purification Potion?"

Xiao Yu: "About ten percent..."

Is it that low? It didn't matter anymore; trying was better than not trying; at least there was some hope.

"Open the hidden bonus gift pack!"

Qi Yin clasped her hands together and couldn't help but pray secretly.

It must appear; it must be the potion.

"The bonus gift pack has been opened for the Master; please check it."

As Xiao Yu's notification sounded, a flash of light appeared in her mind, and a gift box with gold edges emerged.

Qi Yin's heart jumped to her throat, staring intently at the gradually appearing outline of the item.

Her fingers slowly opened the lid, and a transparent test tube filled with flowing gilded liquid lay quietly in the center of the box.

On the inner wall, a few clear large characters were engraved: [Deep Purification Reagent].

Qi Yin was immediately overjoyed; it worked!

Her luck was incredible.

Her tense shoulders relaxed, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart; this was too smooth.

It seemed... it seemed that something in the dark had pushed her, and also pulled Xiao Sinian.

Opening her eyes, Qi Yin looked at the slightly lonely Xiao Sinian again, put her hands behind her back, and nonchalantly took out the reagent from behind her.

"Here, try this; maybe it can eliminate the residual poison in your body."

Xiao Sinian took the potion, didn't ask a single extra question, and drank it in one gulp.

His sexy Adam's apple rolled once, and his brows furrowed slightly, as if he were feeling the medicinal power.

After a while, Qi Yin met his gaze.

"How is it?"

Xiao Sinian's eyes held a hint of inquiry and relief: "It feels... a bit different. That thing is weaker, but it hasn't completely dissipated."

Qi Yin understood; it was a deeply rooted problem, so being able to weaken it was good news.

"It's probably because you absorbed too much unpurified crystal core energy before; it will take time, take it slow."

But now was not the time to dwell on this. "Brother Wang, you stay behind to take care of Yang Zi."

Wen Yang still needed his Supernatural Ability to warm and nourish him.

"Understood!"

Then, she nodded at Xiao Sinian: "Let's go."

"Mm."

The two walked out of the RV, and Qi Yin placed her hand on the vehicle body; a translucent ice shield, like an inverted bowl, covered the entire RV.

This shield was one she had upgraded; ordinary Second-level Zombies couldn't break through it, which could temporarily ensure their safety.

Next, their task, besides upgrading, was to obtain the information behind the top floor of the laboratory building.

Qi Yin pointed to the gray, dusty laboratory building not far away.

"See that? The zombie density in the building is quite high, estimated at no less than five hundred per floor. We'll split up to clear them, quick and decisive."

Her gaze swept across their firm and tense faces: "Zhou Le and Qian Hao, first floor; Uncle Chen and Lei Jun, second floor; Brother Xu and Mu Feng, third floor; Brother Yan Xiu and the others, fourth floor. Support when necessary."

Finally, it was her and Xiao Sinian.

"The top floor, the two of us will go."

Qi Yin emphasized specifically: "Everyone, pay attention to sensing your own Supernatural Ability. We have already accumulated quite a bit of crystal core energy before, and under combat pressure, you might upgrade. Once you upgrade, don't hesitate; speed up the clearing."

The sooner it ends, the lower the risk.

Immediately, a row of assault rifles and sufficient ammunition appeared in front of everyone.

"Take your weapons!"

"Got it! I guarantee these monsters will die without a burial place!" Lu Yanxiu was exceptionally excited.

He still remembered the grudge of Wen Yang getting injured.

"Move out!"
