Chapter 54 - 3.11
"Give Ru Lan to me."
Everyone was shocked with Ling Kai’s demand. They thought that Ling Kai would demand to give the city to him, or human sacrifice. Because this powerful zombie king had defeated their president.
Although President Ru had exterminated 90% of the zombies, the rest of the people couldn’t fight the last 10%, especially when Ling Kai was still very much alive. Maybe because they had been well protected by their president, that they didn’t have individual strength. They relied on him too much.
Thus, when Ling Kai asked for them to hand their president, they were all silenced. Nobody dared to fight and protect their president.
Ling Kai sneered at these bunch of cowards. They were all shows, but no strength. They relied on Ru Lan too much, yet, when Ru Lan was now in his weakest, nobody wanted to protect him.
’It must have been hard to be Ru Lan, to have everyone adore you, but nobody cares for you...’
’Maybe we are not so different. Everyone fears me, and nobody cares for me...’
Since nobody was brave enough to fight Ling Kai, his only obstacle was Bi He who tightly clenched Ru Lan’s body. He could just kill Bi He right now, but if Ru Lan woke up and found out that Bi He was dead... Ling Kai didn’t want to see his reaction.
"This city is full of cowards. Everyone relies on President Ru so much that they become a parasite, hanging on a big tree," Ling Kai sneered. Even after such an insult, nobody was angry enough to stand up and take charge.
Ling Kai crouched in front of Bi He and unconscious Ru Lan. He asked Bi He for the second time, "Give Ru Lan to me."
Bi He lowered his gaze, maybe because he was instinctively afraid of Ling Kai’s gaze, "If... if I give Ru Lan to you, will you spare everyone in the city?"
