If Ba Shu harbored any lingering doubts about the imminent depletion of his spiritual energy, he faced a crucial juncture he couldn’t afford to ignore.

Two flying zombies, one from the front and the other from the back, launched simultaneous attacks. The first aimed to tear at the back of his neck with its claws, while the second sought to bite at his arm with its gaping mouth.

Caught off guard, Ba Shu reacted swiftly, rolling and grabbing a companion’s hand to shield himself from the front-charging zombie.

The unfortunate individual whose arm Ba Shu seized was Old Pa, an old student from Hong Estate Academy.

Witnessing the perilous situation, Huang Sheng roared urgently, “What are you doing? Old Pa, move!”

However, entangled by the quilt, Old Pa had no chance to escape. As the flying zombie closed in, poised to bite his chest, Old Pa couldn’t help but let out an anguished howl in his heart, contemplating the untimely end of his life.

Never did he anticipate finding himself in such dire straits when he ventured into the secret realm in search of opportunities. Old Pa had meticulously prepared for this journey, investing significant effort to catch the Shrine’s attention.

Reflecting on this, sorrow filled Old Pa’s heart.

“Clang!” A resounding noise echoed.

Startled, Old Pa snapped out of his reverie, realizing that the flying zombie in front of him had been pierced through the back of its head by a black crossbow bolt.

The black crow-gold arrow extracted a core as it passed through, embedding it forcefully into the ground.

Qiao Mu approached, casually plucking the crow-gold arrow along with the core. Turning to Ba Shu with a cold stare, she then directed her sharp words at the stunned Old Pa, “Why are you standing there in a daze? If you don’t know how to save yourself on the brink of death, don’t expect others to be generous enough to save you.”

Reprimanded by a young lady, the old man’s face reddened. Yet, upon reflection, he couldn’t escape the pangs of shame.

Indeed, in the midst of the most perilous moments, he failed to consider self-preservation. Instead, he found himself lamenting the arrival of spring and autumn in his heart. The realization that a young lady outshone him in strategy left him truly embarrassed.

Ba Shu, momentarily stunned, forcefully thrust his broadsword into another flying zombie’s head. He ruthlessly stabbed it multiple times, seemingly venting his frustration.

Upon withdrawing the blade, he opened the zombie’s head, only to find no traces of a core. Not every zombie bore a core in its head.

Aware that cores could enhance special abilities, individuals with unique skills valued them highly in the black market. Ba Shu, disheartened, wondered why he was so unlucky, especially after witnessing the young lady effortlessly extract multiple zombie cores.

Frustration mounting, Huang Sheng rushed to Old Pa’s side. He turned to glare at Ba Shu, demanding, “What were you doing just now? Huh?”

Witnessing Huang Sheng’s accusatory gaze and anticipating a barrage of curses, Ba Shu couldn’t help but internally curse himself.

However, mindful of Huang Sheng’s association with Crown Prince Mo’s team, Ba Shu put on a strained smile and said, “Heh, brother, it’s a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding.”

“Misunderstanding? I saw you using Old Pa as a shield against the zombies with my own eyes.”

“Do you have any sense of decency?”

What decency!
