Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!

Bai Yifan quickly looked over and saw that those fly-catching leaves seemed to have locked onto Bai Xiqin, all rushing toward his older sister.

Leng Yebai was surrounded by lightning, ignoring the fly-catching leaves around him, moving quickly in Bai Xiqin’s direction.

An intense energy storm erupted from Leng Yebai, with lightning enveloping him and Bai Xiqin.

The fly-catching leaves crumbled into dust as soon as they got close to the lightning.

Yet countless fly-catching leaves continued their frantic assault on them.

Leng Yebai held Bai Xiqin tightly, his eyes flickering with purple lightning.

The power erupting from his body surpassed that of a Fifth Rank Superpower User.

Bai Xiqin felt the fingers on her waist trembling slightly, causing her heaving chest to twitch violently.

Moments ago, all the fly-catching leaves inexplicably attacked Bai Xiqin, and her steel needles couldn’t retaliate in time and many were even corroded.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai were completely surrounded by fly-catching leaves, with the Bai Family and the experts brought by Zhong Beihai unable to see them anymore.

Only the occasional flash of purple lightning indicated that someone was amidst the dense cluster of fly-catching leaves.

”Xiao Niu!”

Bai Zhengxuan was startled, quickly attacking the fly-catching leaves surrounding Bai Xiqin with others.

Like a drop in the ocean.

There was a constant influx of fly-catching leaves.

The Base Commander’s presence exuded a formidable pressure, with dense lightning striking the surrounding land, instantly destroying thousands of flytraps, though others with extended roots quickly filled the gap.

The power unleashed by the Bai Family and the Base Commander was immense, shocking the six experts brought by Zhong Beihai.

The Bai Family is not just formidable.

”We’re okay! Don’t worry! If we can’t win, we’ll retreat!”

Bai Xiqin quickly reassured those outside.

Afraid her family would worry.

If we can’t win, retreat means entering a different space.

This was the plan under insurmountable circumstances.

The Bai Family felt more at ease upon hearing Bai Xiqin’s reassurance, yet continued fiercely attacking the fly-catching leaves.

They normally absorbed crystal cores inside the space, feeling as if they had endless energy, unlike the six experts who constantly held crystal cores to absorb energy and replenish their abilities.

”This situation seems daunting; perhaps I should first take you back to the Alliance,”

a Wind Ability User suddenly appeared next to Zhong Beihai, fingers resting on his shoulder.

No matter what, Elder Zhong Beihai cannot come to harm.

”What about my sister then!”

Hearing the Wind Ability User mention leaving, Bai Xiqin panicked, clinging tightly to Zhong Beihai, fearing they would leave.

”The five of them will stay to help; I must ensure Mr. Zhong’s safety.”

The Wind Ability User glanced at his brothers fighting, a flash of heaviness in his eyes yet not doubting his decision.

Their mission was to find mutated plants that resisted the zombie virus and protect Zhong Beihai’s safety.

Both goals were equally important.

The flytrap seemed to lurk in every corner, impossible to eradicate completely; at this rate...

”Take Xiao Fan with you later,”

Zhong Beihai fell silent momentarily, reversing his grasp on Bai Yifan’s arm.

He didn’t think his life was more precious than others and didn’t wish to become a deserter. If it came to it, he hoped this child beside him would survive.

Zhong Beihai felt a bit bleak inside but still had some faith in Captain Zhang, trusting in his foresight.

This group wouldn’t sacrifice themselves in vain.

”No! I’m not leaving!”

Bai Yifan broke free from Zhong Beihai’s arm, brandishing a dagger as he charged toward the fly-catching leaves.

The Wind Ability User had a chance to catch Bai Yifan but had to prioritize safeguarding Elder Zhong Beihai, so he could only watch Bai Yifan rush forward.

Radiating golden light, Bai Yifan was unharmed by the black mucus for a moment, the sharp dagger severing several fly-catching leaves.

The Wind Ability User was momentarily stunned.

This family, not a weak one among them!

”Let’s go!”

The Wind Ability User grabbed Zhong Beihai’s arm, preparing to carry him away.

”Wait a moment, wait a moment.”

Zhong Beihai gently shook his head, pushing away the Wind Ability User.

”But the research at the Alliance can’t do without you, you...” The Wind Ability User’s face showed some anxiety.

He didn’t want to leave his brothers here, but Zhong Beihai was simply too important.

”Anyone can conduct research; someone will take over my work. You go and assist!”

Zhong Beihai had already made a decision.

He feared that if the Wind Ability User took him away, what if, when these people were just a step away from escaping, the Wind Ability User could help them win?

The last straw couldn’t be taken away by him.

The Wind Ability User tightened his face but didn’t heed Zhong Beihai’s words, directly bending to carry him, intending to leave.

This old man is a cornerstone of the Alliance’s research institute; he couldn’t allow him to die here, no matter how much he wished to stay behind.

”Let me go! Go and help!”

Despite his wrinkled face turning red with anger, Zhong Beihai struggled against the Wind Ability User, trying to get down.

Once a person moves, he starts fighting back, even hitting the Wind Ability User’s head as a last resort.

Bang, bang, bang, Zhong Beihai pounded on the Wind Ability User’s head.

”Elder Zhong, please don’t move.”

The Wind Ability User, lips tight, could only endure Zhong Beihai hitting his head, careful not to hurt Zhong Beihai.

”Put me down!”

Zhong Beihai was almost bursting with rage, starting to yank the Wind Ability User’s hair.

The Wind Ability User sighed deeply, letting Zhong Beihai pull his hair and hit his head, clothes moving without wind, starting to activate his Wind Ability.

With his speed, he could get Elder Zhong Beihai to the Alliance in a day, faster than a bullet train.

”Why so serious at a time like this, what are you playing at?”

A deep, magnetic male voice suddenly rang out.

Simultaneously, a powerful pressure was crushing down on the fly-catching leaves.

The flytraps attacking Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai paused for a moment.

”Captain Zhang?”

Zhong Beihai and the Wind Ability User shared a look of astonishment, collectively breathing a sigh of relief.

With Captain Zhang here, the situation was sure to be won.

Captain Zhang was impeccably dressed in a clean white shirt, even wearing a blue tie, and his shoes were polished to a shine. Gold-rimmed glasses lent him an air of elegance.

A faint smile played on his gentle face, his presence evident and not to be underestimated.

Strong yet refined.

Captain Zhang adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses slightly, saying lightly,

”Hair is especially important to a middle-aged man, Elder Zhong, don’t make things difficult for Zhang Feng.”

Zhang Feng was the Wind Ability User having his hair pulled and his head hit by Elder Zhong Beihai.

”Oh, oh, oh, I’ll change next time.”

Zhong Beihai quickly jumped down from Zhang Feng’s shoulder, casually tossing the handful of hair to the ground.

He realized his mistake, but would dare to pull again next time.

Zhang Feng quietly touched his hair, a twitch playing on his normally stoic face.

Captain Zhang stepped toward the cluster of fly-catching leaves, emanating an indescribable aura.

A miraculous phenomenon unfolded; with each step Captain Zhang took, the cluster of leaves shrank back, even forgetting to attack.

By the time Captain Zhang reached the forefront of the fly-catching leaf horde, it had retreated dozens of meters, revealing Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.

”Xiao Niu, are you alright?”

The first person Captain Zhang looked at was Bai Xiqin, nestled in Leng Yebai’s embrace.

His eyes scanned Bai Xiqin up and down, nodding slightly upon seeing she was unharmed.

This young woman couldn’t come to harm, or Earth would be doomed.
