New Ability Every Ten Days: Becoming a Vampire Made Me Too OP

Chapter 159: The Supreme Martial Zombie King’s Stocks Are Still Skyrocketing

Eternal Purity replied, ”It doesn’t matter. She possessed a soul, but it was far too weak. The moment it left this body, it completely dissipated.”

She looked at Nangong Wanwan’s corpse with eyes full of pity. She had personally watched the soul leave the body, only to disintegrate amid screams moments later. Yet she had done nothing.

Powerful mental energy and a high rank were the fundamental reasons Nangong Wanwan had managed to form a soul. However, possessing a soul was not necessarily a good thing. Hers had formed only recently and was still extremely weak and unstable. The moment it lost the protection of her body, it dissipated.

Perhaps it was karmic retribution. She had slaughtered countless people, so after death, she was forced to experience the most terrifying moment of her life. Even her death had been exceptionally miserable.

Yu Xian looked at the corpse. ”So, even if I revive her, she won’t really be the same person?”

Eternal Purity nodded. ”That is correct.”

Yu Xian no longer had to struggle with the decision. He pierced his fingertip and dripped Ultimate Source Blood onto Nangong Wanwan’s corpse. The wound on her forehead gradually pushed out the broken piece of bamboo, and her skin completely healed in the blink of an eye.

Color slowly returned to her previously lifeless eyes. She rose and knelt before Yu Xian, lowering her head. ”Nangong Wanwan greets you, Master.”

”Mm. Call me Boss from now on. The real Nangong Wanwan’s soul has already dissipated. How much of her strength can you still use?”

Nangong Wanwan closed her eyes. After a moment, she replied, ”Boss, aside from her Martial Will, I can use all her other abilities.”

With a nod, Yu Xian murmured, ”So, the soul takes the Martial Will with it. Can you cultivate her Martial Will again?”

In his view, Nangong Wanwan’s value had fallen drastically without her Martial Will. Her strength had decreased by at least half. When he used Appraisal on her again, sure enough, he saw that her Power had dropped to only 0.02.

Nangong Wanwan answered honestly, ”Boss, I don’t know if I can cultivate my Martial Will back up from scratch. The original Wanwan faced countless perils, constantly tempering herself through endless life-and-death crises to ultimately achieve those Martial Wills. I can’t experience that feeling firsthand. Looking back at those memories now just feels like watching a movie.”

She had inherited all of Nangong Wanwan’s memories, and even her personality closely resembled the original’s. However, because of Yu Xian, she instinctively rejected Nangong Wanwan’s former personality, knowing that he disliked the person she had once been. The conflict between those two instincts made her appear somewhat dull and completely different from the Nangong Wanwan of before.

Yu Xian placed a bubble in her ear. ”Then just give it your best effort. From now on, you’ll guard the house and train your martial arts. If I need you in battle, I’ll summon you.”

Suddenly, Nangong Wanwan said, ”Boss, I know where my original self hid her treasure. Would you be interested?”

Yu Xian was surprised. ”Nangong Wanwan has treasure?”

”Yes. My original self had been working as an assassin overseas for years. If the reward for this mission hadn’t been a staggering five billion, she definitely wouldn’t have returned to the country. Her treasure is hidden in Rosy Cloud City near the border. There are more than fifty spatial rings, along with many supernatural weapons. There is also a large amount of gold and silver, with a total value exceeding ten billion.”

Without hesitation, Yu Xian said, ”I don’t want money obtained through wrongdoing. Find some time to donate it later.”

As the saying went, in poverty, perfect your virtue; in prosperity, aid all under heaven. A gentleman may love wealth, but he ought to acquire it only through the proper path.

If Yu Xian were poor, that would have been one thing. He could loosen the belt around his principles just a tiny bit. But he now had more gold than he could ever spend and did not need bloodstained, ill-gotten wealth. He genuinely had no interest in Nangong Wanwan’s fortune.

After sending Nangong Wanwan back to his residence, Yu Xian took out his phone and called Zhang Kai, asking him to send someone over to deal with the bamboo grove.

The bamboo grove Nangong Wanwan had created using All Things Flourish was real. It had not disappeared after her death. Instead, every bamboo stalk remained frozen in the shape it had taken during the final moment of the battle. Looking up, Yu Xian could still see countless stalks pointing directly at him.

After ending the call, he put away his phone. He enlarged a spatial bubble and instantly returned to Qilin’s headquarters.

When Yu Xian entered the conference room, Gong Qian was playing cards. He glanced toward Nora and her mother. Seeing that both of them had fallen asleep, he lightened his steps as he walked over.

Gong Qian and the others in the room continued the game.

”Pair of threes.”

”Pair of fours.”

”Two jokers.”

”Pass.”

”Seven.”

”Pass.”

”A five. I win!”

Gong Qian happily threw her final card onto the table. Beside her, Hua Qiang helplessly set down his cards.

Suddenly, he noticed Yu Xian had returned. ”Did you take care of everything?”

Yu Xian nodded. ”Hmm. There were nine Furry-Hand mercenaries in Ice City and one assassin in Silver City. I’ve dealt with all of them.”

Gong Qian didn’t expect that. ”An assassin? We still have professional assassins in our country?”

Yu Xian explained, ”It was an assassin who left the country, only to end up being hired for a job back home. She was quite strong too. Unfortunately, she’s lost her Martial Will now, so the only thing she’s still good at is dancing.”

To Yu Xian, the current Nangong Wanwan truly had no merit left besides being a beautiful dancer.

Hua Qiang teased him in a low voice. ”A woman? Aren’t you afraid your little girlfriend will get jealous?”

Yu Xian rolled his eyes at him. ”A clear conscience fears no accusation. What do I have to be afraid of?”

He took a chair from his spatial ring, sat down, and pulled out his phone to check the latest news. Many more nations had discovered that vampires had contaminated their blood banks, resulting in countless deaths. By now, several nations had formally declared war on the Dragonblood Ancestral Court, with missiles of various types aimed directly at its capital.

White Shark, the captain of the Swordfish Squad, looked at Xiao Cheng with a worried expression. ”Vice Director, my teammate reports that something unusual is happening along our nation’s coastline.”

Yu Xian grew curious about it. He immediately closed his eyes. Under his control, countless tiny bubbles scattered throughout the coastal cities rapidly sprouted eyeballs. Since spatial bubbles could transform into eyeball bubbles, Yu Xian no longer needed to travel around to deploy them. He only had to release the bubbles and let them fly to their destinations on their own.

He could even create layered bubbles, with one bubble enclosing another. This allowed all of them to travel at their maximum speed of Mach 20. Once the outer bubble burst, the bubble inside could continue onward.

This was the same method he had used when traveling to the Red Planet. He had prepared a huge number of bubbles and sent them forward at maximum speed. The innermost bubble grew an eye, constantly monitoring its surroundings and adjusting its direction. Once the bubbles reached the Red Planet, Yu Xian simply teleported there. The method was both safe and convenient, so he continued it on the Blue Planet by placing bubbles in many different cities.

At this moment, through his eyeball bubbles, Yu Xian saw countless red tentacles thrashing in the distant sea. He immediately recognized them as the tentacles of Aberrant Parasites. The Aberrant Parasites entered the ocean to develop their forces. Are they planning to attack the mainland?

A whale-like Aberrant Parasite controlled two enormous tentacles on either side of its body as it charged ashore at astonishing speed. However, Xu Ao descended from the sky in the form of an eastern dragon. Under his control, the surrounding water transformed into sharp blue chainsaws, instantly killing every Aberrant Parasite that had reached the shore.

In the sea, an Aberrant Parasite resembling a Western dragon angrily burst out from the water. But Xu Ao charged straight into it, surrounded by a torrent of water. The surging water struck its target like a tunnel-boring machine, smashing the fairly powerful Aberrant Parasite apart on the spot.

Less than a minute had passed between Xu Ao’s arrival and the end of the battle. Although Xu Ao had thoroughly lost to the Supreme Martial Zombie King, he was clearly no weakling. On the contrary, he was terrifyingly powerful. It could only be said that the Supreme Martial Zombie King just kept looking more impressive.
