Zombie King Babysits the Reborn Empress

Chapter 326: Chapter 328: Landslide on the Mountain Road! Huang Xuan’s Discovery!

After the convoy left the urban area of Shanchuan City, it continued on the endless mountain roads. Some roads were carved into the mountainside, with steep cliffs on one side, and if not careful, the convoy could roll off the mountain path.

Therefore, as the convoy moved, Lu Chuan remained fully concentrated, observing everything around to prevent any accidents.

Rumble~

The long convoy slowly moved along the mountain road. The rows of wheels crushed the gravel paving the road, producing a continuous rumbling sound.

Suddenly, there was a sharp braking sound, and the entire convoy stopped instantly.

At this moment, Lu Chuan, who had switched back from Flyer One’s perspective, frowned.

Just now, through Flyer One’s perspective, Lu Chuan discovered that a mountainside about a kilometer away from here seemed to have undergone a severe landslide, possibly due to heavy rains over the past few days.

A large amount of soil and rocks blocked the entire path tightly, making it impossible for the convoy to pass.

This is troublesome!

“Dad, why have we stopped?”

On the back of the Mutated Giant Turtle, Ji Ruxue asked a bit puzzled.

As she spoke, Ji Ruxue’s heart instantly became vigilant, her eyes scanning all around, guessing that there might be some unexpected situation causing her dad to stop suddenly.

Hearing this, Lu Chuan took out paper and a pen, writing on the paper, “Little Qiqi, the road ahead is blocked by soil and rocks. Our convoy can’t get through for a while.”

Seeing the words on the paper, Ji Ruxue then understood it was because the road was blocked. However, she immediately frowned.

Must be because of the rain… but what should we do now?

“Lu Chuan, what’s going on? Why did we stop?”

Zhao Lin, who was tired from riding the Mutated Black Bull, also got off from the car behind, asking with some confusion.

“Mrs. Zhao Lin, the mountain road ahead is blocked by soil and rocks due to heavy rain, so our convoy can’t get through.”

Upon hearing this, Ji Ruxue turned her head and said.

“So unlucky! What should we do next? Should we take a detour? Lu Chuan, it should be possible to go around, right?”

Hearing Little Qiqi’s words, Zhao Lin looked shocked, and after complaining, she looked at Lu Chuan helplessly.

Lu Chuan thought for a moment but decided not to take a detour as it would take too long.

He then wrote on the paper, “No detours, we’ll stay here for a while. I will dispatch my evolved zombies to clear the mountain road. With their help, it shouldn’t take long.”

After writing, Lu Chuan handed the note to Ji Ruxue, signaling her.

After reading the content, Ji Ruxue nodded and turned to Zhao Lin, shouting, “Mrs. Zhao Lin, don’t worry. My dad will immediately dispatch evolved zombies to clear the mountain road, so it shouldn’t be long!”

“Alright then!”

Hearing this, Zhao Lin nodded and then went back to the car, sitting cross-legged in the back seat, beginning to cultivate.

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan manipulated his subordinates Da Pang, Er Pang, and other Corpse Puppets to head to the blocked mountain road area to start clearing the soil and rocks.

…

At the same time, in Haoyun District, Shanchuan City.

With Lu Chuan and the others leaving, Haoyun District once again fell into its usual calm, even more so due to the influence of Lu Chuan’s Corpse Puppets. Some Fierce Beasts regarded Haoyun District as a forbidden zone, not daring to step in even though Lu Chuan and others had left.

Boom!

At this moment, a ground spot inside the district suddenly exploded, soil splattering, the noise like thunder, as an enormous creature dug out from the underground.

It was none other than the Tier 4 Mutated Pangolin under Huang Xuan’s command.

The pangolin’s nose twitched slightly, following the scent of zombies, quickly reaching the building where Lu Chuan and the others had once resided.

Then, upon seemingly discovering something, the Mutated Pangolin emitted a series of strange cries, pacing back and forth on the lawn in front of the building, no longer leaving the place.

A moment later, a crisp chirping echoed in the sky above the district.

Screech

The next instant, the cold-faced Huang Xuan descended riding a Fierce Bird.

“Seems like it’s here? But there’s no movement, did they run away?”

Observing the building before him and finding it entirely still, as if those zombies had already left, Huang Xuan frowned and jumped down from the Fierce Bird’s back, cautiously walking towards the lawn in front of the building.

As he reached the lawn, Huang Xuan froze upon seeing a pile of something beneath the Mutated Pangolin’s feet, his face showing surprise.

It was actually some burnt charcoal.

How is this possible, unless there are survivors here, otherwise who would be burning charcoal in this place?

Still full of confusion, Huang Xuan thought for a moment and decided to go upstairs to check.

A minute later, Huang Xuan went up the residential building through the corridor, quickly finding a wide-open apartment door.

Immediately, Huang Xuan halted, then lightened his footsteps, and slowly walked in, eyes vigilantly scanning all around.

After finding no one in the room, Huang Xuan slightly relaxed.

Upon inspecting, Huang Xuan indeed found traces of human habitation in the room, indicating someone had lived here recently.

In an instant, Huang Xuan’s expression became grave, his spine chilling.

“Humans coexisting with zombies, or?”

Huang Xuan was shocked by this discovery, is such a thing possible?

Zombies are mindlessly murderous, how could they coexist peacefully with humans?

Subsequently, Huang Xuan suddenly recalled the information regarding the Corpse King.

As the largest evolutionary organization in Shanchuan City, the Beast King Sect naturally had its reach into every part of Shanchuan City.

Whether it was the evolutionary organizations in the wild or the Shanchuan Base City, the Beast King Sect had people in both places.

These individuals were responsible for gathering intelligence for the sect members and even engaged in intelligence transactions with some officials.

Previously, Shanchuan Base City’s attempt to eliminate the Beast King Sect failed due to this network.

With such advantages, Huang Xuan was not only able to acquire a lot of information about Thunderous Roar but also knew quite a bit about the entity most dreaded by the authorities—the Corpse King.

Especially the one Corpse King in Jiang Province, under which many powerful evolved zombies resided.

Rumors had it that the entity had previously appeared in Beicheng City and then vanished… it was very likely that it had come to their Shanchuan City.

If the real culprit behind the slaughter of the Beast King Sect were attributed to this Corpse King, then everything would make sense.

The entity’s intelligence wasn’t low, and the human living traces he had just discovered could also be explained.

Moreover, the Corpse King surely had countless powerful evolved zombies under its command, capable of wiping out his Beast King Sect.

“Could it truly be the Corpse King that ran over from Beicheng City?”
