Rebirth Of The Apocalypse Queen: On Your Knees, Young Emperor! - Chapter 235

Chapter 235: Unraveling A New Use For The Sap

Inside the Origin Space, Qin Yi shook the liquid in the bottle, the content as beautiful as an emerald green gemstone.

A pity she only had half a bottle. The plum blossom tree’s reaction was fast, and she could only gather so much.

But inside the space, she could use the sap as she much as she willed.

The little plum blossom flower’s face was disdainful, conveying his thoughts clearly.

‘You say you only want a little bit, but you’re a bandit, a bandit!!!’

Her white hands were stained with a bit of the emerald green sap and when Qin Yi took a sip of it, she found it sweet and refreshing, like papaya juice. It was actually quite enjoyable.

Not long after drinking it, Qin Yi felt a warmth in her lower abdomen. After probing it with her consciousness, Qin Yi was startled to discover that her ability core’s color had darkened greatly, meaning that her abilities had upgraded once again. Although this little bit of energy was not enough for her to increase a rank, it was pretty good progress.

Good things had to be shared, wasn’t that right little plum blossom flower?

Qin Yi’s eyes were bright, her mind spinning. She originally hadn’t planned to stay with the plum blossom flower, but who knew what its true ability was? This made her change her plans, wanting to try and subdue the little plum blossom flower.

If that was not possible, she could always destroy it.

The mutated plant, which had grown its own consciousness, could not distinguish between good or bad on its own. If someone were to meticulously guide and train it, it would not resort to eating humans.

But before subduing it, she did not mind collecting a bit of interest from it.

Outside, the little plum blossom flower sensed its change in luck. Wasn’t it supposed to be eating? Why was this prey so disobedient, frequently disappearing and appearing again, each time pricking it with a blade?

It had no way of taking down this prey, and every time it failed, and the cunning prey disappeared, it grew furious. Damn it, this was cheating!

After a few more times of this repeating pattern, the little plum blossom flower became weak, its lush green leaves having dimmed down considerably. It was unable to defeat the prey and it had lost plenty of energy.

On this day, the patrols were coincidentally Du Yi and Wang Wei. It was the afternoon and still cold. Days in the apocalypse were grey and overcast, causing many people to feel dispirited.

Du Yi had a root of grass in his mouth like a hooligan, gazing up at the stifling sky. He then spoke to Wang Wei, who was beside him, “Wang Wei, take a look at this sky, it’s so gloomy. Do you know that Xu Ning actually got promoted to a 7th rank citizen? He made so many people jealous.” Du Yi’s words said he was jealous, but his eyes held a lot of disdain.

Wang Wei looked at Du Yi and continued to wipe his dagger, “If you’re really jealous of him, then go out like he did. Brother Ming came to find you before, but you were unwilling to go.”

Du Yi snorted, retorting, “I won’t sell myself out.” Although Du Yi was a hooligan, he was not one to pillage others. At most, he would collect protection money.

Du Yi gazed at the sky, and just when Wang Wei thought the guy’s sanity was truly gone, he suddenly heard him whisper, “Wang Wei, we both know that this stronghold is not good at all, so why are we staying here?”

Wang Wei stopped wiping his knife, his eyes revealing a hint of helplessness. That’s right, they knew that the stronghold was built on spilled blood and was extremely dirty, but they were still staying there. Maybe it was the nature of human beings to lie to themselves. Although it was bad, they wanted to at least survive.

Du Yi suddenly stood up, a bright light in his eyes, “Wang Wei, I’ve decided. We need to do something big for Brother Ming. That way, I can surpass Xu Ning.”

Wang Wei did not know whether to laugh or cry, feeling that Du Yi was truly a crude person to listen to rumors. “What do you plan to do?”

“Erm…” Du Yi scratched his head, not having planned that far ahead yet.

Wang Wei was about to ridicule him when he heard a sturdy voice call out, “Two brothers, are you guys lacking in people here? We’re here to rely on you guys.”
