Being humble

"Great! Honey! Show this zombie what you've got!" Mo Ling swung her fist and shouted excitedly with a face full of enthusiasm.

Everyone's eyes were filled with anticipation as they looked at Zheng Tianping. He was their savior, and at this moment, he was about to confront the supernatural being bare-handed!

The crowd didn't blink as they waited in suspense.

Feeling encouraged by the crowd and his loved one, Zheng Tianping's confidence soared. He believed he could do it, he could defeat the zombie!

However, reality turned out to be extremely cruel.

First, the zombie raised its hand and slapped him to the ground.

Then it pounced on Zheng Tianping, biting into his neck with its gaping mouth.

In a desperate struggle, Zheng Tianping quickly lost his life.

Another grave would be added to the Beishan Cemetery.

All of this happened in a matter of seconds, catching everyone off guard.

Mo Ling: "???"

Ye Li: "???"

The crowd: "???"

"Honey!"

Mo Ling wailed, shocked by the fact that Zheng Tianping turned out to be so useless and was easily taken down by the zombie.

At that moment, the zombie consumed not only Zheng Tianping's blood but also a trace of his spiritual power, making it even more ferocious.

With its eyes glowing crimson, the zombie exuded a terrifying aura.

In the Beishan Cemetery, with hundreds of people present, would it be enough for the zombie to feed on?

The zombie scanned its gaze around, instantly instilling fear in the hearts of the people.

Soon after, panic ensued as people desperately ran for their lives.

The zombie locked onto a person and lunged towards them, causing the individual to be frightened out of their wits, stumbling away from Ye Li.

Just then, the zombie brushed past Ye Li.

A hand was placed on his shoulder.

"Go back and find your grandma," Ye Li said calmly.

The zombie froze, halting its steps. It suddenly turned its head, its crimson eyes fixated greedily on Ye Li.

It sensed a delightful aroma emanating from Ye Li, and it had a premonition that devouring Ye Li would lead to an unimaginable level of evolution.

Ye Li, on the other hand, sighed helplessly, frustrated by his cursed absorption ability. It never allowed him a moment of peace.

"Roar!"

The zombie roared in anger and lunged towards Ye Li.

"Ah, my irresistible charm shines wherever I go," Ye Li said lightly, extending his hand and grabbing the zombie's head. He then gave it a single shake, hurling the zombie several hundred meters away.

Boom!

Like a cannonball, the zombie created a shockwave in the air, its body forcefully embedding itself into a distant mountain.

For a moment, the people who had been frantically fleeing stopped in astonishment, their faces filled with disbelief as they watched Ye Li.

Mo Ling: "???"

The crowd: "???"

Even the zombie itself was bewildered. Was it the zombie or was he the zombie? It felt like a basketball in Ye Li's hands, completely at the mercy of his opponent.

Struggling, the zombie crawled out of the mountain, consumed by anger. After all the effort it took to crawl out of its grave, it intended to wreak havoc on the world, but it had only managed to devour a few people before being beaten up like this. The zombie couldn't tolerate it anymore.

With a leap, the zombie soared eight to nine meters high, its entire body resembling a projectile as it charged towards Ye Li.

"Come on, hero!"

"Don't lose, hero!"

The people present cheered and encouraged Ye Li.

Ye Li remained silent. Truth be told, he disliked being in the limelight.

With fame came trouble, and it didn't bode well for his plan to act mediocre.

Meanwhile, the zombie's body closed in.

Its teeth gnashed, and a faint sound of breaking wind could be heard.

"Well, whatever," Ye Li sighed. After all, he could just use the Forgetfulness Spell afterward to erase their memories. He could have some fun now.

To be honest, Ye Li wasn't pleased that zombies would emerge on the anniversary of his parents' passing. It was an inauspicious occurrence. With this in mind, he opened the Mental Compendium of Spirit Slaying Techniques in his mind.

"Hmm, this one seems good."

"The Violet Extreme Thunder Cannon!"

He raised a single hand and gave a light grip.

Suddenly, a massive turret shadow materialized behind him.

Strong winds blew, causing his clothes to flutter.

Hum~

A powerful energy gathered at the cannon's barrel, surrounded by concentric circles of purple light contracting and intertwined with golden thunder, emitting a formidable pressure. People felt suffocated, as if facing a divine might.

"Fire."

Ye Li murmured softly, and then, a tremendous light beam with a diameter of three to four meters burst forth from the cannon's barrel.

The purple energy wave, accompanied by thunder, tore through the void and shot toward the endless sky.

"Roar!"

Facing the oncoming Violet Extreme Thunder Cannon, the zombie finally felt fear, but it was too late to escape.

In an instant, it was reduced to ashes and vanished into nothingness.

Meanwhile, the Violet Extreme Thunder Cannon continued its trajectory, charging through the sky, even dispersing the clouds.

A purple beam of light pierced through the void above the Beishan Cemetery, as if about to break through the Blue Planet, tearing the sky in half. For a moment, half the city witnessed this anomaly.

Everyone speculated about which powerful being had arrived in Jiangcheng and what had happened at the Beishan Cemetery.

The city lord of Jiangcheng and the members of the Spirit Slayers stationed there rushed to the Beishan Cemetery, eager to uncover the truth.

On the other hand, our low-key student, Ye Li, eliminated the zombie and displayed his impressive skills. Then, using the Forgetfulness Spell, he erased his existence from the minds of everyone present and disappeared on his own.

The people left behind, when asked about what had happened, could only say that someone had saved them, but no one knew what that person looked like.

Perhaps only Mu Zhiqing in Jiangcheng knew that this incident was the work of a master of acting mediocre from the Cloud Peak District.

Everyone was searching for Ye Li, but he had already returned home alone.

"I should go out less from now on. No, I won't go out at all!"

Ye Li made up his mind.

Every time he went out, he encountered so many trivial matters. His Absorption Spirit Constitution was truly remarkable. Despite that, today's grand display of pretending to be amazing gave Ye Li a sense of satisfaction deep down.

"For lunch, I'll treat myself to a sausage!"

Ye Li grinned and cooked a bowl of instant noodles.
