Qin Yi followed Xu Ning to the back and remained silent. She did not whine or grumble at all, allowing Xu Ning to relax a bit more and take care of her.

He informed her of many things regarding the stronghold, afraid that she would offend those that she could not afford to offend.

Qin Yi took in all of Xu Ning's words and gained an understanding of the group.

The group consisted of people who were hoodlums before the apocalypse. When the apocalypse happened, their head, their current boss, had awakened a rare ability: controlling zombies.

This group of people recruited new men along the way, becoming larger and larger, and soon decided to make the forest behind the village their base. After setting up shop there, they continued to kill and h.o.a.rd.

They were like ancient bandits, establis.h.i.+ng their own stronghold, the Cool Breeze Stronghold. The hoodlum head called himself the boss, with many behind him.

Even the people that had been robbed were willing to follow him, so the stronghold divided the people into various ranks. The higher the rank, the more power and respect one had.

Xu Ning and Wei Liao had joined later on, making Xu Ning an 8th rank citizen, while Wei Liao was a 10th rank citizen. The subordinates were low ranked, which was why Xu Ning looked down on Wei Liao.

Seeing Qin Yi's pitiful look, Xu Ning coughed a few times and spoke with a rarely seen gentleness, “Little la.s.s, don't say I didn't warn you. When you get there, there are two people you should never offend.”

Qin Yi's eyes gleamed but she maintained her naive and adorable look. Using her deer-like expression, which could melt hearts, to look at him, she asked, “Uncle, who are they?”

Xu Ning turned around in a mysterious manner and whispered, “They are Concubine Yu and Concubine Li. You can never, ever offend them.”

Qin Yi could not help but laugh out. The bandits truly did not know how to live out their days, even forming the emperor's harem.

But Qin Yi did not find it strange. Very few people in the apocalypse talked about morality. In her previous life, she had heard of many that occupied various s.p.a.ces and used their underlings to accomplish their dreams of being kings.

Seeing that Qin Yi was in a daze, Xu Ning became slightly regretful. He felt that he should not have said too much and made her afraid. But he had to bring her in, he was relying on her to become a 7th rank citizen.

“Don't worry, it isn't easy to meet the two of them. Overall, our stronghold is actually a rather nice place to live in,” Xu Ning consoled patiently.

Qin Yi fluttered her eyes and gave a sweet smile, her phoenix eyes gleaming with light. Her look caused Xu Ning to become absent-minded for a moment, “En, I know that Uncle is a good man.”

Xu Ning rubbed his nose, then continued talking to Qin Yi.

No one saw the profound look in Wei Liao's eyes.

Inside a relatively clean clay house in Cool Breeze Stronghold was a man lying on top of a girl as he moved up and down continuously, his roar and her faint breathing both in harmony.

After s.e.xual intercourse, the man, also known as the boss of Cool Breeze Stronghold, Lin Hai, stood up and calmly put on his clothes.

Lin Hai was tall and of strong stature with stoic features. He was rather good looking, except for his muddy eyes, which one could immediately tell indulged in debauchery.

The lady wrapped her snake-like arms around Lin Hai's waist, her naked body clinging to him.

Lin Hai laughed and pinched her flushed cheeks, “What, did I not satiate you Lili?”

The lady called Lili glanced at Lin Hai bashfully and replied coyly, “Lord, you're so naughty. Are you going to look for younger sister Chuchu?”
