Chapter 120 - 38.2 (1/2)

While Li Xinwen was occupied in the studio for the talk show, Sun Xiao was watching the live broadcast on the TV with Li Jinghua and Madam Li. When Madam Li noticed that her son was bullied in the talk show, she was angry. Luckily, Li Jinghua was around to calm her down.

”Mom, don't worry. Look, Ah'Wen dealt with the situation calmly. It will be alright,” Li Jinghua gently rubbed her mother's back.

”But that host is clearly targetting Ah'Wen from the start until now. At first, he ignored Ah'Wen, now he's trying to humiliate him!” Mother Li complained. ”Ah'Xiao, you're also angry, right?”

Sun Xiao nods his head at his adopted mother's inquiry. ”I will remember the host's face and if I meet him in the future, I'll beat him up,” Sun Xiao said in a serious tone. Then, he turned to face Madam Li with a warm smile on his face. ”So, mom don't have to be too angry. Ah'Xiao will help you vent your anger.”

Mother Li thought that her son only said so in order to placate her. Her lips curved up into a smile before she raised her hand to gently pats Sun Xiao on his head. ”Good boy. Make sure to teach him a lesson for mom.”

Mother Li never would've thought that in the future, Sun Xiao really would do as he said. So she simply played along, not thinking much about it.

But Li Jinghua, who was nearby, knew that Sun Xiao would do it. This adopted brother of hers had grown over the past two years. Though he would still appear timid when met with someone new, as long as Li Xinwen is around, he would gain confidence as high as the heaven.

”Ah'Xiao shouldn't resort to violence right away. At the very least, even if you want to teach him a lesson, you mustn't hit him directly,” Li Jinghua told her brother. 'In the apocalypse, if you appear ruthless, you'll become the target of the public,' she wanted to tell Sun Xiao but simply kept it to herself since her mother is around.

”Okay. If Hua-jie says so,” Sun Xiao replied.

After the small conversation, the trio returned their attention to the show and saw how Li Xinwen quickly created fire by using the flints from the survival kit provided. He only needed two action to let the paper that the host gave him catch fire. The guest audiences present all awed with his performance.

”Whoa! I did not expect that you can do it so quickly. Teacher Li, it seems that you really did study for your role,” the host complimented Li Xinwen.

Li Xinwen merely let out a small chuckle and shrugged his shoulder. ”Of course. If I don't study, then the movie would look bad, no?” he said. In fact, he cheated by using spiritual energy to light up the paper. Of course, this is a secret only known to him.

”Indeed. Indeed! So, what else can Teacher Li do?” the host ask again.

”Hmm… I guess you can say that I can handle a gun?”

At this statement, An Yunxu inwardly scoffed but his outward appearance didn't change from the gentle and friendly appearance he put on. ”Xiao Wen, you should know that a real gun is different from a prop used in a movie. Just because you were taught how to use the prop, doesn't mean you can use a real gun.”

”Senior An is indeed correct. Compared to the prop, a real gun is heavier. Not to mention, the recoils from a live bullet is far stronger,” as Li Xinwen said this, he turned to look over at An Yunxu. ”In the movie, we indeed used a prop. But in order to replicate the realism of the gun, I had the pleasure of practicing with a real gun few months before shooting the movie.”

Again, Li Xinwen wasn't lying. He indeed practiced with a real gun before shooting the movie. Not just guns, he was also taught how to handle assault rifles, SMGs, rifles, grenade launcher and even how to throw a grenade. At first, Li Xinwen was excited since it was a new experience for him.

But after only a few days, he mastered everything and grew bored of it. When Li Jinghua was not present, he even told Xue Jun how a pebble he threw would have a more firepower than the bullet. Xue Jun naturally believed him, but also advised him not to show his full strength during the early days of the apocalypse.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%5Bbl%5D_14640041906106405/chapter-38.2_50365762740743253 for visiting.

Li Xinwen agreed. After all, Li Jinghua had informed them how chaotic early days of the apocalypse were. Trust between human were close to a non-existent and even family would sometimes have no remorse in abandoning their family members. In fact, Li Xinwen saw it himself in Li Jinghua's memories how a mother threw her baby towards a zombie to buy her some time to escape.

The talk show continued and every time the host tried to cause trouble, Li Xinwen would skillfully avoids the mines. In the end, the host can only admit defeat and move to An Yunxu.

”Teacher An—”

The host's sentence were cut off when someone suddenly opened the door with a loud bang. The sound was enough to capture everyone's attention.

The director's face was livid as he turned to the door and angrily yelled at the newcomer: ”What are you doing?! Don't you know that we're shooting a live show here? Whose crew are you under? Let me talk—”

When he saw that the man who opened the door was covered in blood, he paused. Then, he worriedly called out to the person. ”Hey, are you alright? Are you… really injured or are you playing a prank?”

The man didn't answer and instead, looked around the studio with a wary eyes. Not long after, he showed a relieved expression before he turned around and shut the door close then proceeds to lock it.

”Barricade, barricade… must block the door…”

Li Xinwen who are now a mid-stage Xiantian practitioner, could hear the mumble clearly. Not to mention, he could see that gaping wound on the man's shoulder, as if a big chunk of his flesh had been bitten off. 'Also… his wounds reeks with demonic qi…'

A frown appeared on his face and he immediately took out his phone. When the pieces of the meteorite fell he had noticed how the world is slowly being contaminated by demonic qi. It was to the point that even the demonic qi that he had suppressed within himself turns excited, causing him to be distressed for a full month before he could finally subdue them again.

Looking down at his phone, he took note of the time and date stated on the screen. 'It's not yet the time that Hua-jie estimated for the apocalypse to start. According to Hua-jie's calculation, the first incident should happen three months later. Did things deviate again?'

Li Xinwen quickly unlocked his phone and started to send a message to the group chat.
