123: Chapter 123 A Black Jade Stone? System: Now you know to call me Brother Tong?

"If there really were an apocalypse, you'd first win the lottery, and then build your own safe house, right?"

Shen Yuan spread his hands. "None of that is true!"

Lu Xiao and Han Jin: "..."

How is your train of thought always so bizarre?

The beautiful woman's mouth twitched. "I've been busy dealing with zombies the whole time; I didn't even bother with lottery numbers!"

"Secondly... let me ask you, how did the zombies appear?" Shen Yuan asked.

The woman shook her head in a daze. "I don't know either. It was just one day, three years in the future, when people suddenly started turning into zombies. Then, people didn't know, and they got bitten..."

"At first, there were only a few dozen, and then..."

"One passed it to two, two to four, and that's how it spread!" the woman said.

Shen Yuan extended a finger and shook it gently. "No, no, no!"

"Beautiful, do you have absolutely no concept of our national power?"

"Let me tell you..."

"Unless one-third of the population was infected and turned into zombies in a single instant!"

"Only then would people be caught off guard and infected, and only then would there be an apocalypse!"

Shen Yuan scoffed. "With the imagination of modern people, do you think that when they see zombies, they'll act like people in movies and stupidly walk right up to them?"

"Without one-third of the people suddenly turning into zombies... there simply wouldn't be an apocalypse!"

"Do you think the state apparatus is just for show?"

"And it spreads from the Magic City bit by bit... Pfft!"

"A single nuke, and everything would be sorted out!"

Shen Yuan raised his middle finger. "If you're saying the virus is airborne, then pretend I didn't say anything!"

The woman: "..."

Lu Xiao: "..."

Brother Shen, awesome!

Han Jin: O_O!!

I actually believed there was an apocalypse just now.

Fine, I was an idiot!

"So, what exactly are you pretending to be?" Shen Yuan sneered.

If you were truly a reincarnator, if you were truly a female protagonist... the system would have notified me long ago!

The woman's mouth twitched twice.

"You want my money to buy supplies..."

Shen Yuan looked at her with amusement. "Why do I feel like you're here to scam me out of my money?"

"Then build a safe house and imprison me?"

"And by then, you'd be able to take over my company?"

"And you'd just hire some actors to perform, making me truly believe it's the apocalypse outside."

Shen Yuan looked curious. "Am I right?"

The woman: "..."

"Also, let me remind you. This table is made of rosewood!"

Shen Yuan pointed to the shattered table on the floor. "It wasn't very expensive to make, just 200,000."

"Please pay for the damages now!"

"Will that be card or cash?" Shen Yuan smiled slightly.

Han Jin's mouth twitched. Shen Yuan, stop messing around!

Although it's not certain if this person is mentally ill, but...

she shattered the table with one slap!

"You're asking me for money?" The woman gritted her teeth and said, "Shen Yuan, I'm doing this for your own good!"

"And yet you..."

The woman lunged forward directly. "In that case, I'll just knock you out!"

Han Jin was startled. "Shen Yuan, watch out!"

Then...

the woman was pinned to the ground by Shen Yuan with a reverse grip.

"I just learned this grappling technique, you think I'd take this crap from you?" Shen Yuan snorted coldly.

Han Jin: (O Д O)???

Could she have been using a trick of the eye earlier?

"Damn it!"

"Damn it, you don't know where you inherited some crooked power from, and you dare to come before me and swindle?"

"You dare to try and fool me?"

Shen Yuan snorted coldly. "You want to compare extraordinary powers with me?"

Shen Yuan let go, and the woman stood up in disbelief.

Shen Yuan's hand suddenly grasped at the air and jerked upward.

The woman flew directly into the air, struggling frantically, clutching her throat, as if something was choking her.

"A mere person who has just stepped into the Qi Refining stage, and you dare to come before me and swindle?"

Shen Yuan snorted coldly. "Good girl, take a deep breath; dizziness is normal!"

The woman rolled her eyes and began foaming at the mouth.

Han Jin: (((; ꒪ ꈊ ꒪;)))

Damn it, tricks! It's all tricks! It's all magic tricks! I don't believe it!

"No, wait, Shen Yuan, let her go, she's going to die!"

"She's foaming at the mouth from you hitting her!" Han Jin shouted urgently.

Shen Yuan tilted his head and glanced at Han Jin, his eyes filled with an inexplicable weirdness.

Brother-in-law, actually... there's another kind of foaming at the mouth... figure it out yourself!

Sigh!

I really am evil!

Shen Yuan smiled. "Brother Han, it's fine, she's still 'alive'!"

Shen Yuan slammed her down onto the floor.

The woman fainted instantly.

A wicked smile played on the corners of Shen Yuan's mouth as he reached out a sinful hand, and then...

he grabbed her head!

Shen Yuan closed his eyes.

The cultivation techniques the system initially gave me are all-encompassing, let me look...

something similar to the Soul Searching Technique...

After searching for a while, Shen Yuan found it.

Then, without hesitation, he cast it.

Great Memory Recovery Technique!

The woman's memories boiled in his mind.

The corners of Shen Yuan's mouth twitched wildly.

Sigh, there's no helping it, I'm just too handsome!

This charm that has nowhere to rest!

Back then, after the Original Owner accidentally saved her at a bar...

this woman, in order to find the Original Owner, actually managed to sneak into the Shen Group and became a cleaner!

She worked as a cleaner for a month and scrubbed toilets for three months...

She didn't even have the talent to scrub toilets, so she didn't get a promotion at all, and plus, during that time, the Original Owner never went to the company...

So, she quit!

I can see it now, she really can't even scrub a toilet well!

But a week ago...

she picked up a piece of black, jade-like object...

She felt a strange energy flowing into her body, and then she had cultivation.

Shen Yuan frowned slightly and cut off the Great Memory Recovery Technique.

He began to grope the woman's body.

Lu Xiao: (^_-)

Brother Shen, is this really appropriate? Performing that thing right here?

Han Jin frowned, his eyes cold.

I'm still here, and you're groping another woman right in front of me?

Do you have any respect for my sister?

Shen Yuan groped around for a moment and pulled out a black, jade-like fragment.

It was pitch black as ink, yet it had an understated, oily sheen. It felt cool and delicate to the touch, and the broken edge was as sharp as a blade, yet it also carried a unique, gentle, and heavy quality.

Is this the reason why this woman suddenly gained cultivation?

Hum, hum, hum...

The black jade suddenly erupted with a rich light...

and instantly flew up.

Shen Yuan was startled.

He hurriedly reached out to grab it.

The jade fragment, however, suddenly flashed an afterimage and dove straight into the center of Shen Yuan's forehead.

Shen Yuan collapsed.

"Holy crap, Brother Shen!" Lu Xiao was scared out of his wits and rushed forward, grabbing Shen Yuan. "Brother Shen, don't die!"

"If you die, what will I do?"

Wuwuwu!

If you die in front of us... our families won't be able to survive!

Shen Yuan pushed Lu Xiao's hand away and stood up straight.

He immediately performed an internal inspection of his body, carefully checking himself.

Such a large piece of black jade inserted into my brain, and I'm actually still alive?

Then, he saw it...

In the sea of consciousness between his eyebrows, the black jade fragment was floating steadily in the depths, like an old monk sitting in meditation.

Shen Yuan: "..."

What on earth is this?

"System, Brother System!" Shen Yuan communicated with the system tremblingly. "What, what is this?"

"Ding, you kid aren't stupid!"

"Now you know to call me Brother System?"

"Hehehe~~~"
