A cup of hot tea was placed on the exquisite sandalwood table. The guy requested this.


    “If this were before the apocalypse, this table would be worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. It would cost a few million if it is even older and has some story behind it.”


    He drank the glass. This middle-aged man judged the table that someone had found.


    Ye Zhongming squinted his eyes and looked at this person who came uninvited. He wasn’t as simple as he looked.


    This person’s evolution level wasn’t high. At least to Ye Zhongming, it wasn’t. He was only six stars, but he gave others a weird feeling.


    Even if Ye Zhongming couldn’t insta kill a six-star evolved, he could crush them. Be it equipment, job, skill, or level, Ye Zhongming had an absolute advantage.@@@@


    But this person made him feel awkward. He thought about it and was shocked. This was a feeling of danger that wasn’t fatal.


    A six-star evolved was a threat to him? And it wasn’t lethal? Then why did he feel danger? Ye Zhongming couldn’t understand.


    Also, how did Liu Zhenghong’s situation get spread out?


    Only the core members and Xia Bai Battle Squad members saw Sister Hong’s situation. Their loyalty wasn’t a problem. Apart from those, Saintess was the other one.


    But would the Saintess reveal it? Of course not; that wouldn’t benefit her at all. Saint Light Hall’s life is in Ye Zhongming’s hands. Moreover, she couldn’t say it to anyone, even if she wanted to say it. She didn’t know anyone on Earth.


    Then who was it?


    Was it people that Le Dayuan and Liu Zhenghong met after returning to Cloud Peak? Researchers in the lab? Even if they saw her, how would they know that the injuries were irreversible?


    Ye Zhongming wanted to know the answer but knew he wouldn’t get an answer even if he investigated.


    “This tea, what a waste. If it were Pu’er, it would be fine, but this is green tea, so it is a little bland.”


    This person shook his head as he looked at the tea. He was speaking as if Ye Zhongming had destroyed the tea.


    “What are you called? Where did you come from? What is the method? What is the price?”


    The board pierced through his body and out through his back. That person shouted, but he couldn’t say anything. His hands signaled with obvious meaning—that he would give him the answer!


    Ye Zhongming smiled, “Seems like I don’t need to ask you for the price.”


    He snapped his fingers, and two warriors from Xia Bai''s battle squad dealt with the wooden spikes on his body. They weren’t very gentle, and it caused him to scream for two minutes.


    They scattered a basic healing potion onto him and dragged him onto the chair before they left.


    Ye Zhongming was facing them when he spoke, so they heard everything. They were amused at how arrogant this person was.


    In their hearts, only people like the Saintess and Saint Father were worthy of talking to Ye Zhongming. Those people would be resistance zone commanders or Five Ring Money deacons. How would such a noob that was on their level be worthy?


    Ye Zhongming took one more look at this person. The middle-aged guy ignored his pain and started to speak.


    “My name is An Zhen; I have no faction. I am a free evolved.”


    Hearing what he said, Ye Zhongming straightened his back and stared at his face.


    He knew this person!


    Of course, it wasn’t this life but the last.


    An Zhen was very famous in the last life not because of his evolution level. When Ye Zhongming died, he was level eight and didn’t reach level nine. But he was famous for being rich!


    That phrase was ironic in the apocalypse. The strong people were, of course, rich, and it was impossible for the weak to become rich. Even if they were smart, people could steal their wealth.


    But he lived really well and didn’t have a big faction as his backer. But all nine-star evolved had to admit that An Zhen was their good friend.


    Simply put, he was unobstructed in the apocalypse. As long as he didn’t ask to die, no one would dare to touch him.


    Ye Zhongming had only heard of this person. He was unsure why nine-star evolved treated him so well, but there was something he remembered.


    This person always had magical things in his hands!
