System Glitch! I Accidentally Saved The Zombie Emperor
Chapter 44: Ye Xuan’s SecretYe Xuan looked at his three brothers, thought for a few seconds, then carefully asked, "Do you guys believe in rebirth or transmigration to another world?"
When he asked this, Qiu Sixun, Lan Zuancheng, and Gu Zhenwei exchanged glances.
Unlike Gu Zhenwei and Qiu Sixun, Lan Zuancheng had already guessed the reason behind Ye Xuan’s change in personality. So, when Ye Xuan asked this, he wasn’t surprised. Instead, Ye Xuan’s question only confirmed his suspicions.
Looking at Ye Xuan, Lan Zuancheng calmly replied, "I do believe in rebirth. As for transmigration, there is no evidence to prove it. Besides, with our current technology, it’s impossible to create a space portal, let alone send people to another world."
Ye Xuan listened to his answer, then turned to Qiu Sixun and Gu Zhenwei. "What about you two? What do you think about rebirth and transmigration to another world?"
Asked by him, Gu Zhenwei scratched his head, then replied, "I don’t think people can transmigrate to another world. As for rebirth, some people do believe that they will be reincarnated after death. However, I don’t believe that. Everything will be gone after we die."
Thoughtfully staring at Ye Xuan, Qiu Sixun frowned slightly.
’Brother Xuan wouldn’t ask this question without a reason. Could it be that the thing he wants to tell us has something to do with rebirth and transmigration?’
After pondering this matter for a while, Qiu Sixun asked, "Brother Xuan, does the matter you want to tell us have something to do with rebirth and transmigration?"
Ye Xuan nodded, lowered his voice, and asked, "If I told you guys that I had died and returned to the past, would you believe me?"
When he asked this, silence filled the warehouse. For several seconds, none of them spoke.
Looking at his brothers’ faces, Ye Xuan’s fingers tightened unconsciously.
He had never been afraid of facing zombies or death itself. But for some reason, telling these three people the truth made him more nervous than facing any enemy.
Staring at Ye Xuan, Qiu Sixun’s expression turned serious, while Lan Zuancheng let out a soft sigh as he looked at Ye Xuan with heartache and worry.
Unlike his two brothers, Gu Zhenwei was so shocked that he froze in place.
Just when Ye Xuan thought that everyone was taking the revelation calmly, Gu Zhenwei exclaimed in shock, "What?! Brother Xuan, you—! Mphm!"
Before he could ask anything, Qiu Sixun had already covered Gu Zhenwei’s mouth.
Glaring at Gu Zhenwei, he scolded in a low voice, "Shut up! Do you want to announce this secret to everyone?!"
Realizing that he had almost made a huge mistake, Gu Zhenwei quickly shook his head.
Seeing that he had realized his mistake, Qiu Sixun retracted his hand.
Gu Zhenwei’s eyes widened when he saw Qiu Sixun wipe his palm on his pants. Pointing at Qiu Sixun, he asked accusingly, "Brother Sixun, do you think I’m dirty?!"
Qiu Sixun rolled his eyes at Gu Zhenwei, then turned to Ye Xuan. "Brother Ye, I believe you."
"Me, too," Lan Zuancheng added.
Calming down, Gu Zhenwei looked at Ye Xuan and said seriously, "I also believe in Brother Xuan."
Looking at his three brothers staring at him with trust in their eyes, the heavy stone pressing on Ye Xuan’s heart dissipated instantly. Releasing his tightly clenched fists, he noticed that he was so nervous that his palms were covered in sweat.
Ye Xuan took a deep breath, then raised his eyes. A moment later, the corners of his lips curved up slightly.
"Thank you, Brothers."
Now that they had learned about Ye Xuan’s secret, Lan Zuancheng asked, "Brother Xuan, can you tell us how you died in the past?"
When Ye Xuan heard this, he turned to look at Liu Yun, then softly replied, "I was turned into a zombie in my previous life. But before the survivor base killed me, I discovered a space portal. A second before the attack hit me, I jumped into it..."
Ye Xuan paused for a moment, then added, "...and somehow, I returned to the past."
Hearing this, Lan Zuancheng’s eyes flickered for a second. He followed Ye Xuan’s line of sight and looked at Liu Yun.
’Could it be that the reason Brother Xuan became interested in Younger Sister Liu is because she saved him and prevented Brother Xuan from turning into a zombie?’
After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Brother Xuan, could it be that in your previous life, the time you turned into a zombie was yesterday?"
Ye Xuan looked away from Liu Yun, then nodded at Lan Zuancheng. "Mhm."
Receiving his confirmation, instead of being happy, Lan Zuancheng asked further, "Since Younger Sister Liu saved you from turning into a zombie, could the future also change from what you remember?"
Ye Xuan thought for a second, then replied, "I’m not sure. But for now, we should protect her. Not only because she saved my life, but also to see if she can change our future."
Listening to their conversation, Gu Zhenwei curiously asked, "Brother Xuan, since you were a zombie in your previous life, then what happened to the three of us?"
The second Gu Zhenwei asked this question, Ye Xuan fell silent.
Recalling the past, Ye Xuan clenched his fists. As seconds passed, his expression gradually darkened.
Noticing that he fell into deep thought, Lan Zuancheng and Qiu Sixun stared at him, waiting for his answer.
However, Ye Xuan couldn’t answer Gu Zhenwei’s question.
How could he tell them their endings? How could he tell them what he had witnessed?
Seeing that he didn’t look well, Qiu Sixun raised his hand and said, "Brother Xuan needs a lot of rest to recover. We should talk later after he gets some sleep."
Knowing that Qiu Sixun was deliberately stopping Gu Zhenwei from asking further questions, Lan Zuancheng added, "Brother Sixun is right. It’s almost evening now. We should get some sleep and recover our stamina."
Standing up, Gu Zhenwei said, "You guys sleep first. I’m not sleepy yet."
Seeing him walk away and begin making a bonfire, Qiu Sixun and Lan Zuancheng didn’t stop him.
The weather after the descent of the Red Moon was unpredictable. It was better to get warm enough just in case the temperature suddenly dropped while they were sleeping.
Turning to Ye Xuan and Qiu Sixun, Lan Zuancheng said, "I will go and check on Ru Jianxiao."
"Alright." Qiu Sixun nodded, then turned to Ye Xuan. "Brother Xuan, you sleep first. I will stay here with you."
"Mhm."
Ye Xuan didn’t refuse Qiu Sixun’s kindness and closed his eyes. Before long, his breathing slowed, and he slowly fell asleep.
Sitting beside him, Qiu Sixun leaned against the wall and thoughtfully looked at Liu Yun. However, there was no calmness in his eyes now—only speculation and suspicion.
Unaware that Qiu Sixun and the others were beginning to suspect her identity and her motive for saving Ye Xuan, Liu Yun was still busy working in the Farmland Plot 001.
Looking at the floating transparent blue screen in front of her, Liu Yun wiped the sweat off her forehead with the back of her hand.
[Farming Main Mission: Cultivate Farmland]
[Status: 20 / 25]
[Time Limit: None]
[Reward: Farming Exp x200]
[Penalty: None]
Reading the mission status, a smile appeared on Liu Yun’s lips. "Five more to go, and I can complete the first farming mission."
Closing the mission status panel, she opened the Farmer’s Status Panel.
Seeing that she had 31 Farmer Energy left, Liu Yun smiled and added, "Since I have enough Farmer Energy, I should be able to complete this mission before midnight."
With this in mind, Liu Yun closed the Farmer’s Status Panel and continued turning the soil. Almost forty minutes later, a notification sounded in her mind.
