Chapter 36

Realizing that this matter had still not been resolved, Xiao Sa’s facial expression suddenly changed, and the air around him became more oppressive, making it difficult for everyone to breathe.

Then suddenly, a red flash appeared in the sky. The lightning gradually became brighter and brighter, s.h.i.+ning brightly in the horizon as if to demonstrate its power.

“What’s going on?” Someone in the crowd stood up and asked.

“The way it’s flas.h.i.+ng in the sky is really beautiful.” Another person exclaimed.

Xiao Sa’s heart sank and his eyes darkened as his mind emptied of almost all thought. He didn’t need to think hard to recognize that this was what his kitten had said was the sign of the apocalypse.

“Ah… Watch out!” someone screamed after a few moments of shocked silence.

Everyone could see that the lightning in the sky was getting closer and increasing in intensity.  The abrupt storm filled their hearts with an inexplicable feeling of fear.

The lighting kept getting closer and closer to N city, and there also appeared to be something falling from the sky.

With a loud sound, the lightning finally struck down.

“Ah… isn’t that…”

Before he even finished speaking, Xiao Sa had already ran outside like a mad man. Having grown up in N City, how could he not identify the hotel where little Jing was staying?

“Brother…” Zhou Ji shouted as he rushed to keep up with Xiao Sa.

However, Cheng Shaoxin moved his body to block his path: “Hey slow down little brother Zhou, something hasn’t been handed over yet.”  “What do you want? Step aside brother, I won’t let you off easily this time.” Zhou Ji’s usually gentle eyes flashed over with a fierce look. He who has always been too softhearted refused to let these people bully him.

Cheng Shaoxin knew that there was safety in number and thus was not intimidated by Zhou Ji. At the wave of his hand, a group of people surrounded them.

“I should explain myself more clearly. If you leave, don’t come back. You have to think carefully, because after the handover is complete, there will no longer be a place for any of you here with me. ”

None of the one hundred members who remained with Xiao Sa even glanced at him, they only hurriedly rushed out. Cheng Shaoxin was disappointed by the outcome, but he neither felt bad nor cared. He had only wanted to pressure Zhou Ji into immediately handing over the money. And so Zhou Ji had no choice but to let the others leave first and he would follow later.

Han Yan thought for a moment, then turned around and ran out with the rest. Xiao Sa had spoken harshly to him, yet he couldn’t ignore the long history he had shared with his brothers. Instead he just decided to curse Bai Jing, who was the source of all these problems.

The fact was, he would never again dare to be impudent. Thinking to himself that he couldn’t afford to always treat

that guy as a bodhisattva. Therefore, even with the weather as it was outside, it was still vital that he found his brother.

No matter how chaotic the roads were, Xiao Sa drove the car in a rampage, one hand on the steering wheel while the other was continuously dialing the phone. He had never been so frantic. He suddenly hated himself as he questioned why he hadn’t stayed with his kitten.

Boom! A tall billboard was blown down by the wind onto the road, blocking the way forward. Xiao Yu slammed the steering wheel with his hands, his gaze barely concealing his anxiety. Then he fearlessly jumped out of the car and started running towards the hotel, his ears picking up the sounds of his subordinates calling out to him: “Brother, wait…”

After running for a while, the strong wind stopped, and the lightning seemed to be getting farther and farther away from N city. The only thing that could still be heard was a thunderous boom as the strange meteorites fell from the sky. Xiao Sa felt that even the ground seemed to shake from this.

Even in the face of this, his mind was still preoccupied by other things, and the anxiety in his heart only seemed to worsen. His kitten… Will his kitten be able to avoid getting hurt?

Only half an hour had pa.s.sed from the moment the lightning landed to when it left. But to Xiao Sa it had felt like a century had pa.s.sed. The hotel was not far from the main house, but because he had to run for part of that distance, by the time he arrived at the hotel, the sky had already quieted down. The tranquility was not disturbed by even one bit of chaos; it was the kind of ominous silence found at the gates of h.e.l.l as the devil, baring fangs and brandis.h.i.+ng claws, approached from the other end.

There was a power cut at the hotel so only a few security lights were on. Screams and cries for help could be heard. Some people were trying to call for help on their phones, but unfortunately none of the calls were going through.

Xiao Sa ignored all this and quickly ran up the building using the emergency stairs. As he observed the damage on the floors that he pa.s.sed through – sections of walls broken off – his heart kept sinking further and further. At that time he found that even his physical strength was not lacking, and seemed to have improved, since he even climbed a thirty-eight-story high-rise, without gasping for air once.

When he reached the top floor of the hotel, he saw shattered gla.s.s scattered everywhere, everything was in disarray and a huge fire had engulfed most of the floor. Even the doors were hanging off their hinges. Xiao Sa bust into Bai Jing’s room and caught sight of the blood stains on the ground. His eyes immediately began to sting

sting painfully…

“Bai Jing, Bai Jing.” Xiao Sa shouted loudly, frantically searching the room. However, except for the traces of blood, only a cell phone was left in the room. Xiao Sa, with trembling hands, picked the phone up from the ground. He could clearly see that Bai Jing had dialed his number 15 times consecutively, and could only imagine how scared his kitten must have been at that time.

The blood on the ground was still wet, and the air was filled with the scent of burnt flesh. Xiao Sa dared not think further about what these signs implied. 

Not long afterwards, his brothers caught up to him, then proceeded to also search the room for Bai Jing. Xie Minhang who had a good impression of Bai jing, upon seeing the situation, comforted Xiao Sa by saying: “Big brother don’t worry, not being able to find Little Jing’s body is a good sign.”

Xiao Sa’s heart calmed, he couldn’t panic at that moment. He calmly summoned his brothers: “Go search the hotel once again. Show me the actual person if he is alive, or show me his corpse if he is truly dead.” He refused to believe that his kitten would die like this.

That night, Xiao Sa remained in the hotel lobby, entirely focused on his goal. Three hours later, the telecommunication went back to normal, and the police plus ambulances arrived. It wasn’t until the investigation was completed and no trace of Bai Jing’s corpse was found, that Xiao Sa could finally let out a sigh in relief. He could finally be certain that his kitten must be safe and sound.

Therefore, he didn’t waste any time and immediately convened with all his brothers. Xiao Sa then spent a large sum of money to rent an apartment building in a remote location not far from the main house, as their base. The defensive measures around the building were strengthened: the doors and windows were replaced by Gorilla gla.s.s and steel, while the main door downstairs was fitted with an anti-theft power grid. The iron gates at the entrance were reinforced by a three-level gate, even the entrance and exit of the parking lot were also added two thick gates.

Everyone was confused by his actions, but after taking one look at Xiao Sa’s cold face and the oppressive aura that his entire body was emitting, no one dared question him. Han Yan had wanted to say something several times but stopped himself.  Xiao Sa also didn’t pay any attention to them. He admitted to himself that he is taking out his anger on everyone, but until the day he found his kitten, he would not feel at ease; if his kitten could not be found in one day then he too could not be at ease within a day.

At that time, Bai Jing was quietly lying at the bottom of the spring water, his skin smooth and delicate with no traces of blisters. His white cheeks

white cheeks had a healthy blush, and the purple blue light that had covered his entire body gradually dissipated.

Bai Jing opened his eyes and only felt comfortable, even his meridians seemed to have expanded. He stared blankly at his surroundings and found that he was actually at the bottom of the spring, and beneath him was a pile of jade. Bai Jing was shocked and knew at a glance that these were the jades he had been collecting. Had they really been so many?

He slowly stood up and took a scan of himself. He found that there wasn’t even a single strand of clothing on his body and that he had actually been breathing underwater without any difficulties.

He had no idea how long he had been here. Wouldn’t Xiao Sa be worried?

Even now he still remembered the fierce lighting from that day.  He still felt the trepidation remaining after a trauma, but if his memory served him well, he should have been unconscious on the ground that day. So how then did he end up at the bottom of this spring?

Bai Jing had too many unanswered question regarding his dimension. The other matter he couldn’t understand was the extremely ferocious lighting from before. He couldn’t figure it out, and he didn’t want to. Anyway, all that mattered was that he was still alive, after truly believing that he was going to die.

For the first time since his rebirth, he managed to enter his dimension and was eager to take a look around. He looked at his house, his medicine garden, then at the chickens, ducks and crabs that he had been raising.  Unfortunately he had no cattle.

He wished he had also raised some cows.

Bai Jing had just barely thought this, before experiencing a sudden pressure squeezing his body and in a flash he found himself inside the house. His eyes were wide open with amazement. If he wasn’t wrong, this must be the teleportation skill he had read about from the novels. Was it possible that he could now use this skill?

Even as Bai Jing was thinking this, he felt that this reasoning was not correct. He could feel that his abilities had not advanced. The only difference was that previously he had fallen short of advancing by one critical point and now he was basically on the cusp of a breakthrough. It would only be a matter of time – or a stroke of luck – before he would breakthrough to the next level of his abilities.

Bai Jing focused his thoughts, and attempted to teleport again, but nothing happened.  Even after trying a second time, still nothing happened.

He was slightly disappointed, but in his heart there wasn’t even a little bit of tension.  To be able to reverse his fate was really not easy. No one could understand this kind of happiness that comes from getting a new lease on life. Compared to this, nothing else mattered.

Bai Jing was reluctant Jing was reluctant to leave as he fondly looked around his dimension. But he dared not waste any more time since he didn’t know what the current situation outside was like.  He quickly got dressed and then in the blink of an eye he was back in a messy hotel room.

He was shocked and his heart skipped a beat as he saw the state the room was in. Had this place been looted? Bai Jing was confused for a moment as he caught sight of the dry blood on the ground, and the traces of fire damage everywhere. Just now, he had been too preoccupied with the pain in his heart which had once again been filled with fear to pay attention to anything else. Nevertheless, he quickly realized that not even the slightest sound to human activity could be heard.

He searched the whole room, but was unable to find his mobile phone.  He was slightly annoyed, how was he supposed to make a phone call without the phone.  But then he was once again happy as he wondered whether it was Xiao Sa who had taken his mobile.

Bai Jing only wanted to know what day it was. How long he had been unconscious at the bottom of the spring? He went in search of a way to find out what day it was. Unfortunately not only was there no running water in the hotel, but there was also no electricity. Not to mention the telephones from which not even busy dial tones could be heard. Right from the start he had no fighting chance.

Bai Jing became suspicious when he noticed that there wasn’t a single person in sight as he descended to the hotel lobby. He hadn’t felt very hungry after coming out of the water so he had a.s.sumed that not much time had pa.s.sed, but it seems that this wasn’t entirely true.

Besides, there was just something wrong about the hotel. Even if an accident occurs and it is temporarily closed, it would be impossible that he would be the only person around.

He found a bright and s.p.a.cious area, and then looked out from where he was standing at one of the top floors of the hotel. There were a few pedestrians on the street, and cars only drove by in twos or threes. Bai Jing’s heart sank.  Was it already the end of the world?

What about Xiao Sa? If he couldn’t find Bai Jing, wouldn’t he be really worried? d.a.m.n it! Bai Jing inwardly cursed himself. After trying so hard, he had unexpectedly found Xiao Sa, but now because of this situation they had been separated. Bai Jing ran down the building without meeting anyone on his way; the entire hotel was abandoned.

Where there are no humans naturally there will be no zombies. However, Bai Jing was very depressed. He really wanted to meet someone, anyone, even if just to borrow a phone or ask what day it was.
