Chapter 197: At Your Bidding, Zombie Empress! (Seeking further reads)

You Meixiang was overwhelmed, quickly waving her hands and saying,

“No, I don’t need a maid.”

“I’m not some pampered lady who’s never done a day’s work; I’m already very content to have a safe place to live.”

“What’s more, you’ve prepared so much delicious food for me.”

“These dishes are too much, too extravagant.”

“Food is so precious now; ordinary people can’t even get a hot bowl of noodles.”

“And you’ve managed to get me so many delicacies from land and sea.”

“Wang Leyao truly found a good husband!”

This auntie was also a clever person.

Before, she called him a young man; now she skipped the boyfriend stage and treated him as Wang Leyao’s husband.

Wang Leyao’s face flushed slightly upon hearing this, and she also said to Lu Zheng,

“Thank you.”

Lu Zheng smiled and waved his hand, saying,

“No need for thanks among family.”

“Auntie, eat whatever you like. If you can’t finish it, give it to the maids and servants.”

“They are also homeless people who need a job.”

“Working as maids and waitresses, they can live on this cruise ship, safe and comfortable, with ample supplies.”

“You don’t need to feel bad about them.”

Kang Jia’s eyes darted, and she immediately said,

“That’s right! Old Madam, it’s thanks to the kindness of the Master and Madam that we have such good jobs now. Please enjoy your blessings without worry!”

Hearing her say that, You Meixiang finally nodded.

“That’s good then.”

Seeing how well she spoke, Lu Zheng immediately smiled and said to her,

“Later, you will be in charge of distributing all the food and meals here.”

Kang Jia immediately bowed and said,

“As you command!”

Saying that, she proactively stepped forward to help You Meixiang peel a hairy crab and helped her with dishes and soup.

Lu Zheng had indeed not misjudged her; she was a promising candidate for a head maid.

Wang Leyao watched her mother, who was constantly smiling from being served, and her heart lightened considerably; the sadness of her father’s passing was also diluted.

Lu Zheng picked up a piece of meat and brought it to her mouth; she obediently opened her mouth and ate it.

Then she also picked up a piece of crab meat and fed it to Lu Zheng.

This scene made You Meixiang even happier.

A moment later, You Meixiang, full and satisfied, was guided by Kang Jia to rest.

Lu Zheng left some food for the maids and servants here, then directly picked up Wang Leyao and entered a room.

Wang Leyao wrapped her arms around Lu Zheng’s neck, showing no resistance.

She had clearly accepted her current life.

Wang Leyao adopted a posture of being at his bidding.

Lu Zheng also got straight to the point.

【Ding! Successfully sheltered Wang Leyao, obtained one Transcendent Material Card】

The entire process went smoothly, and both parties were very satisfied with the results of their exchange.

Wang Leyao fell asleep with a smile on her lips.

Lu Zheng, on the other hand, looked at his new acquisition.

It had been a long time since he had obtained a new Transcendent Material Card.

【Item: Zombie Control Fruit】

【Type: Transcendent Material Card】

【Effect: Can obtain one Zombie Control Fruit infinitely】

Zombie Control Fruit: Upon consumption, grants the ability to control zombies, allowing one to perceive the existence of zombies and control them.

When Lu Zheng saw this item, he immediately showed a surprised expression.

Because Wang Leyao’s ability was Zombie Control.

The transcendent items obtained in the Yanxia World before had no connection to the women who yielded the Transcendent Material Cards.

It was completely random.

He didn’t expect that upon coming to this world, he would obtain a transcendent item with the same ability as the woman who yielded the Transcendent Material Card.

He wondered if this was an isolated case or if it was always like this in this world.

Lu Zheng was very much looking forward to it.

Because this meant that Lu Zheng could quickly cultivate his women into top-tier combat forces.

He had his own uses for crystals, but the items within the Transcendent Material Card were limitless.

He only needed to give Wang Leyao enough Zombie Control Fruits, and she could grow rapidly, even directly becoming a true Zombie Empress!

Leaving Wang Leyao to rest in the room, Lu Zheng left the cruise ship.

He had to go find new targets.

For his first trip here, he planned to stay for two days.

Within two days, he had to achieve enough results.

Then return to the other side to accompany the dozens of women there.

Well, it was also for enjoying life.

Returning there wouldn’t waste time either, as absorbing crystals also required time. If he wasn’t busy with anything, he would absorb crystals, even when traveling.

Through Commander Tang of the Jade Ring Base, Lu Zheng was introduced to the Blue Water Base in Xuzhou and met Commander Xiang Feng there.

The Blue Water Base was also a large base, protecting over six hundred thousand survivors, and had established a defensive base relying on the ancient city of Xuzhou.

When Lu Zheng arrived, a fierce battle was underway.

It appeared that a horde of no less than three hundred thousand zombies was attacking the base.

To leave a good impression, Lu Zheng made his move.

The new sword move, Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect, obtained from the eighth-rank Sword Control Technique, had not yet had a chance to show its effects. Today was a perfect opportunity.

He flew above the zombie horde, the Zixiao Sword in hand, drawing forth clouds and the power of heavenly lightning. In an instant, dark clouds blotted out the sun, and thunder rolled.

Inside the base, many people watched in terror at this scene, which resembled the end of the world.

Xiang Feng also saw this scene.

He had just received news that City Lord Lu, who would be of great help to the base, was arriving soon.

Therefore, he had specifically come to welcome him.

He didn’t expect to see this scene as soon as he stepped out.

The guard next to him suddenly pointed at a black dot beneath the sky and said,

“Commander, that person caused the weather change.”

Xiang Feng took a telescope and only then saw that there was a young man holding a treasure sword standing beneath the thunderclouds, surrounded by flashing lightning and sword qi, as if an immortal had descended!

In an instant, the treasure sword in his hand flew into the sky, and then, almost at the same time, tens of thousands of sword lights fell from within the thunderclouds.

This was not just the Myriad Swords Returning to the Sect sword move, but a fusion skill that Lu Zheng applied in conjunction with the eighth-rank Thunderbolt Technique.

Therefore, the power unleashed was immense, and the original ten thousand sword lights increased to eighty thousand.

In the blink of an eye, over a hundred thousand zombies were engulfed.

Large tracts of land were directly scorched, and sword marks were left on the ground.

Of the three hundred thousand zombies, Lu Zheng eliminated one hundred fifty thousand with a single move; half of the zombies were completely annihilated.

Whether they were first-rank ordinary zombies or fifth-rank advanced zombies, all were obliterated beneath the sword lights!

The remaining one hundred fifty thousand zombies no longer posed much pressure.

With half of the zombies gone, this base could systematically harvest the remaining zombies.

As the thunderclouds dispersed, Lu Zheng arrived on the base wall and said loudly,

“City Lord Lu of Sky City, here to visit, bringing a gift.”

Hearing Lu Zheng’s words, Xiang Feng finally recovered from the shocking scene of destruction, comparable to an intercontinental missile explosion.

This was a power that humans could wield!

He quickly came before Lu Zheng.

He extended both hands, warmly shaking hands with Lu Zheng.

“I am Xiang Feng, the base commander here. Thank you, City Lord Lu, and welcome, City Lord Lu. I am very fond of your gift, and our entire base is very fond of it. Thank you for your assistance!”
