Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive

Ye Xuan raised one hand.

A thin layer of ice spread over the nearby buildings and covered every window.

The tapping stopped immediately.

Chu Miao looked at the frozen buildings before turning to him.

"That was your idea of being polite?"

"I did not freeze the zombies."

"Very restrained of you, darling."

Ye Xuan accepted the compliment without shame.

They continued walking.

Behind the ice-covered windows, the zombies watched them in silence.

None attempted to break free.

That only made the situation stranger.

If these zombies had been ordered to attack, they could have flooded the streets within seconds.

Instead, they were revealing themselves slowly, as if trying to pressure the two humans.

Unfortunately, neither Chu Miao nor Ye Xuan was easily frightened.

They had faced armies, mutated beasts, and lightning tribulations.

A few million staring zombies could not make them panic.

When they passed an abandoned convenience store, Chu Miao suddenly stopped.

Ye Xuan immediately became alert.

"What did you find?"

"Nothing."

She looked through the broken door.

Several shelves had fallen, but a refrigerated display cabinet near the counter was still standing.

Of course, there was no electricity, and everything inside had spoiled long ago.

"I was only remembering when Chu Hao and I collected supplies before the apocalypse," she said.

At that time, Chu Hao had complained that she was buying too much.

Later, when she told the family about the coming apocalypse, he had accompanied her everywhere and helped her collect whatever they could find.

They had emptied supermarkets, warehouses, and factories.

Now, seeing the abandoned store made those days seem very far away.

Ye Xuan relaxed.

"Miaoer, are you hungry?"

"I don’t need to eat."

"That was not what I asked."

Chu Miao thought about it before nodding.

"A little."

"Then let’s eat."

She looked at the buildings filled with zombies.

"Here?"

"Why not?"

Ye Xuan waved his hand, and a table with two chairs appeared in the middle of the road.

He then took out several dishes prepared inside the Soul Ring.

There was braised fish, stir-fried vegetables, rice, and a bowl of soup.

The dishes were still warm.

Chu Miao stared at the food and then at Ye Xuan.

"We are surrounded by zombies."

"They are well-behaved."

"They want to eat us."

"They can keep wanting."

Ye Xuan pulled out a chair for her.

"Sit down, baby. Your tribulation may begin soon. You should eat before that."

Chu Miao found his reasoning difficult to refute.

Besides, they had been busy since leaving City S.

Once her breakthrough began, she would not have another chance to eat comfortably.

She sat down.

Ye Xuan served her a bowl of rice before taking the chair opposite her.

The smell of freshly cooked food soon spread through the street.

The zombies inside the buildings became restless.

Their breathing grew heavier.

Claws scraped against walls, doors, and windows.

The level-seven zombie in the suit pressed its face against the frozen glass, staring at the two humans eating below.

Its mouth opened, revealing sharp teeth.

However, the invisible control remained.

It could not leave the building.

Chu Miao picked up a piece of fish.

"I think eating here is cruel."

"To the zombies?"

"Yes."

Ye Xuan placed more vegetables in her bowl.

"They have eaten enough humans."

"That is true."

She continued eating without guilt.

The city remained quiet apart from the increasingly agitated sounds inside the buildings.

For a short while, the dangerous place felt almost peaceful.

The sky above them was clear.

A gentle wind moved through the street.

If one ignored the millions of red eyes watching from the darkness, it could have been an ordinary meal outdoors.

Ye Xuan poured soup into Chu Miao’s bowl.

"After your breakthrough, what do you want to do first?"

"Collect the crystal cores."

"Before that."

Chu Miao looked at him.

"Stabilize my cultivation?"

"Before that too."

She understood what he was asking.

"We should return home."

Ye Xuan nodded.

They had been away for some time.

Although everyone knew they were safe inside the Soul Ring, the family would still worry.

"Grandfather will probably complain that we left without taking enough people," Chu Miao said.

"Father will agree with him."

"Mother will ask whether we ate properly."

"And Chu Hao will ask what we brought back."

Chu Miao laughed softly.

"That sounds like him."

She could already imagine her brother circling the pile of high-level crystal cores while pretending he was only checking the quality.

If he learned that Ye Xuan had advanced first, he would probably complain that his brother-in-law was leaving him too far behind.

Ye Xuan watched her smile and felt the last of his tension ease.

No matter where they were, Miaoer always made the surroundings feel less oppressive.

Even a zombie city became nothing more than another place they had passed through together.

After finishing the meal, Chu Miao stored the dishes inside the Soul Ring.

Ye Xuan put away the table and chairs.

"Ready?" he asked.

"Yes."

They continued toward the public square.

This time, the zombies became more restless as they passed.

Several low-level ones began striking doors with their bodies.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

They appeared to be fighting against the command restraining them.

Their hunger had intensified after smelling the two humans, but that was not the only reason.

They seemed to sense that something dangerous was approaching.

Chu Miao could feel it too.

Her suppression barrier had started cracking.

Spiritual energy leaked from her body in small waves.

The ground trembled lightly beneath her feet.

Ye Xuan stayed close but did not touch her.

At this moment, even a small disturbance could cause the barrier to collapse.

They reached the public square twenty minutes later.

It was much larger than it had appeared on the map.

A wide open area occupied the center, surrounded by office buildings, shopping malls, and hotels.

An ornamental fountain stood in the middle, although the water had dried up long ago.

Hundreds of thousands of zombies were hidden in the surrounding buildings.

More filled the underground parking areas and subway tunnels.

Chu Miao released her divine sense and examined the ground.

"This place will do."

Ye Xuan looked around.

"There are several underground exits."

"I will seal them."

She took out the array flags she had refined inside the Soul Ring.

With a wave of her hand, they flew toward different parts of the city.

Some disappeared into the ground.

Others entered buildings or landed on rooftops.
