TL: Moonlit

Ji Rong was stunned and shrank to the side, not daring to speak.

Wen Qingling walked over and looked down at him, saying, “Who gave you the face to stand on equal footing with me?”

The Blood Corpse roared loudly, trying to break free from the suppression. “I was the first one to recognize you! Whatever you say goes! You said not to eat humans, so I won’t! But what have I gained? Besides obeying your orders, I have to listen to other people’s commands too. Why? What gives them the right to order me around? What makes them higher in rank than me? What makes them stronger than me? I refuse to accept it! You’re biased!”

Back when the Blood Corpse had just regained consciousness, he could easily defeat Xiao Hen and his group of four. But now, Xiao Hen had a higher position and stronger power than him. Even Ji Rong could fight him on equal terms. He was the Eastern Zombie General, but he was just a corpse commander!

Leading a group of zombies as a corpse commander!

Every day, a group of zombies in Civilization City transformed into civilized zombies and joined the city. The Blood Corpse increasingly felt that the position of a corpse commander was like that of a shepherd overseeing a flock of sheep. If the sheep were gone, did the shepherd still have a reason to exist?

Originally, he was quite content, thinking that the position of a corpse commander was the same as Ji Rong’s position as the main commander. But now, Ji Rong could handle the affairs of the Civilization City, while he had no right to interfere in city matters. His responsibilities were limited to the unconscious zombies outside the city!

Wen Qingling was also angered and wished to just kill him directly.

However, Ji Rong thought of something and quickly said, “He should have been brainwashed. He suddenly found us before, wanting to manage the Civilization City.”

The Blood Corpse didn’t like dealing with these matters, and even if he was given the authority, could he handle the affairs?

At that time, Ji Rong just found it strange, but now, hearing what he said, he suddenly realized that the Blood Corpse might have been incited by someone.

Wen Qingling knew the Blood Corpse’s nature well. The Blood Corpse did enjoy causing trouble, but he didn’t dare to bring trouble to Wen Qingling. Now, he had crossed the line, not only disturbing Wen Qingling, but also trying to elevate himself to Wen Qingling’s level. Wen Qingling had affiliated bases like Xiang County and Xu County, and now the Blood Corpse wanted to establish Yue County as an affiliated base. Wasn’t he going mad?

Upon hearing Ji Rong’s complaint, the Blood Corpse angrily shouted, “You’ve been brainwashed! Your whole family has been brainwashed! I haven’t been brainwashed, my mind is perfectly fine!”

Wen Qingling slapped him, and the Blood Corpse was tied up with vines and dragged away.

Then, the people who came to the Civilization City for resource exchange saw a vine protruding from the city wall, with a person hanging upside down from it. He was completely entangled in black vines, swaying in the air like a pupa.

Wen Qingling coldly said, “Pour out the water in your brain. When it’s clean, I’ll release you. If you dare to escape, I’ll kill you.”

The Blood Corpse’s mouth was covered, and he could only make whimpering sounds, swinging helplessly in the wind.

Wen Qingling turned around and jumped off the city wall. “Go to Yue County.”

Ji Rong followed behind. “As the city lord, going there in person, aren’t you giving Yuan Chen too much face?”

Wen Qingling stopped and looked at Ji Rong.

Ji Rong said, “Why not let Xiang County or Xu County handle this matter? They are affiliated bases and should solve problems for the Civilization City. Yuan Chen has always relied on the Blood Corpse’s protection and acted arrogantly. Now that the Blood Corpse can’t protect him, he won’t be able to cause any trouble.”

Wen Qingling thought Ji Rong made sense. He was the city lord of Civilization City, and not just anyone could approach him.

Wen Qingling: “Leave it to Xiang County Base.”

Ji Rong: “Alright, I’ll go deliver the message.”

Feeling relieved, Wen Qingling was driven home by the gate guards.

As soon as he got out of the car, before Wen Qingling could say anything, a little ball rushed out from the house and pounced toward Wen Qingling.

Halfway through its pounce, it suddenly stopped because another identical little ball came out of the car.

Kui Bao: “???”

Kui Bao: “……” QAQKui Bao No. 2 saw another little ball just like itself and started laughing happily.

Kui Bao: “……”

With a cry of surprise, it turned around and ran.

Jiang Lan, who was preparing dinner, heard Kui Bao crying and rushed out with a ladle, “What’s wrong? Why is the little darling crying?”

As soon as she looked up, she saw Wen Qingling standing at the door…

Jiang Lan was delighted, “Child, you’re finally back.”

Jiang Lan held the ladle in one hand and carried Kui Bao in the other, not having a hand to hold her own son. She quickly beckoned her son to come inside and get ready to eat.

Kui Bao was crying miserably, pointing at the little ball next to Wen Qingling’s leg, “Nana, nana, nana…”

“Hey hey hey, what’s wrong, sweetheart?” Jiang Lan responded in a stack of voices. She lowered her head and saw the timid milk ball hiding beside Wen Qingling’s leg, nibbling on its little hand.

“Oh my, my sweet little heart, when did you bring another one out?” Jiang Lan’s heart instantly turned into a pile of cotton. She quickly put down the ladle and went over to pick up Kui Bao No. 2, giving it two kisses on the face.

Kui Bao No. 2 started laughing again.

Jiang Lan was overwhelmed by cuteness, “They look so alike, child, this one is definitely your biological child. It looks just like you when you were little, so cute and silly, always smiling, very adorable.”

Kui Bao No. 2 was mischievous, loved to laugh, and had a very expressive face.

On the other hand, Kui Bao seemed to naturally lack the ability to express emotions. Compared to the silly and adorable Kui Bao No. 2, Kui Bao was aloof and domineering.

Seeing that her father and grandmother were being snatched away, Kui Bao threw a punch directly.

Kui Bao No. 2 was still giggling when it was punched in the face, and it froze.

Jiang Lan exclaimed, “Oh dear!” and quickly stopped them, “Da Bao, you can’t hit your little brother.”

The jealous Kui Bao, overwhelmed by vinegar, threw another punch. In a childish voice, it shouted, “Cry…”

After being punched twice in a row, Kui Bao No. 2 couldn’t laugh anymore. It didn’t cry, it just followed the punches.

The two little ones fought in Jiang Lan’s arms.

“Oh dear, don’t fight. Son, come here, the two little ones are fighting…” Jiang Lan had one child in each hand, with no hands to break them apart. She could only shout for Wen Qingling’s help, but Wen Qingling was slouched on the sofa, motionless.

Wen Qingling: “They’re not ordinary children, no need to worry.”

Jiang Lan put both children on the ground, one in each hand, trying to separate the two little ones who were wrestling. However, both little ones were very agile and evaded Jiang Lan’s hands, continuing their punches.

The two little ones rolled together, throwing punches, kicking legs, and tugging at clothes. Finally, in their hastiness, Kui Bao No. 2 opened its mouth to bite…

Wen Qingling slapped their heads, one with each hand, and both little ones were beaten.

When Wen Zheng came back, he saw two identical little ones standing in the yard, tears in their eyes, holding a plate with half a blood anemone on it.

The two little ones stood upright, not daring to move.

Wen Qingling’s voice came from the living room, “Stealing, spilling, dropping. You’ll both get beaten. Let’s see if you dare to fight again in the future.”

Wen Zheng entered the house, “How long have they been standing in punishment?”

Wen Qingling: “A few minutes.”

Wen Zheng lectured him, “You suddenly bring a child home without discussing it with Kui Bao. It’s certain that he would be in a bad mood. The one who should be punished is you, not them.”Wen Qingling: “…”

Wen Qingling began to doubt if he was his biological father.

Jiang Lan brought the food to the table, constantly glancing outside, and asked, “Xiao Xiao didn’t come back with you?”

Wen Qingling replied, “He had something to do, so he came back and left again.”

Jiang Lan looked at Wen Zheng and didn’t continue asking. The affairs of young people should be resolved by themselves.

Jiang Lan said, “Da Bao, Xiao Bao, it’s time to eat.”

There was no movement outside the door.

Jiang Lan tapped the bowl and pretended to scold Wen Qingling, trying to make him say something.

Wen Qingling said, “Don’t worry about them, let’s eat first.”

Jiang Lan and Wen Zheng couldn’t bear to eat by themselves and let the two children go hungry. They wanted to call the children inside but were stopped by Wen Qingling.

Wen Qingling had no concept of feeling sorry for someone. In his understanding, once they made a mistake and were punished, it should teach them a lesson and they wouldn’t make the same mistake again.

The two little ones were not ordinary children. They had both danger and combat abilities. Jiang Lan and Wen Zheng were often deceived by their appearances. When the two children were punished, they also sat restlessly.

It was not until Wen Qingling asked them if they would fight again next time that the two little ones immediately shook their heads, indicating that they would never fight again.

Only then did Wen Qingling let them go and let them carry their plates to the dining table to eat.

The two little ones were well-behaved. After Da Bao finished eating, he even wiped the juice off Xiao Bao’s mouth, playing the role of a considerate older brother.

With the two little ones causing a ruckus at home, Jiang Lan and Wen Zheng were finally not lonely anymore. They were happy every day.

Kui Bao had already been taught to speak simple words by Jiang Lan, but Kui Bao No. 2 was still babbling and didn’t know anything. It was mischievous and naughty. Now Jiang Lan had more work, teaching the two little ones to speak every day.

The matters at Yue County Base were still unresolved, and the blood corpse would remain suspended for another day.

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed, and the matter at Xiang County Base was still not resolved. Wen Qingling called Ji Rong over to inquire.

Ji Rong scratched his head and said, “That Yuan Chen is quite capable. After Chang Boheng met him, he and Wen Chu had a fight when he returned home. They have reached the point of breaking up.”

Wen Qingling: “…”

Ji Rong continued, “Yue County Base has also been restless these days. People are always arguing and fighting over trivial matters, treating each other like enemies. It’s very strange.”

Wen Qingling asked, “So, this is what you mean by ‘unable to calm the waves’?”

Ji Rong: “…”

Wen Qingling said, “Go and bring him here. I want to see what kind of strange ability he has.”

Ji Rong had no choice but to personally go to Yue County and bring Yuan Chen back.

Yuan Chen, upon hearing that the Lord of Civilization wanted to see him, didn’t hesitate and followed Ji Rong. He was very confident.

Yuan Chen looked to be around thirty years old, and he didn’t resemble a Blood Corpse at all. Blood Corpses generally looked aggressive, but Yuan Chen had an honest face, indicating that he wasn’t as honest as he appeared.

Yuan Chen, like all the other survivors outside, was full of longing for Civilization City. Throughout the journey, his eyes couldn’t get enough as he looked everywhere, even staring at the passersby on the roadside.

Yuan Chen was observing them and trying to figure out what was different about them compared to the other survivors. Why were they so lucky to live in the Civilization City while others didn’t even have the qualification to enter?

Like everyone else, he yearned to live in the Civilization City.

Throughout the journey, Yuan Chen kept inquiring about the conditions to become a resident of the Civilization City, his thoughts straightforward.

Ji Rong dealt with it without saying much.

In fact, if he hadn’t caused trouble in Yue County, he might have had the qualification to live in the Civilization City. Even if he couldn’t enter the Central City or Inner City, at least he would have a place in the Outer City. After all, he was a Blood Corpse, and as a relative, he had a good chance.

Unfortunately, the two of them caused too much trouble.
