Global Apocalypse: Awakening the Soul-Swallowing Talent at the Beginning

Chapter 188 Hello, Brother Wenjian!

"Uncle, I'm back..."

Liu Wenjian appeared in Liu Haitao's sight, covered in dust.

Even on his crotch, there were still wet marks.

The latter raised his eyebrows, full of mischief.

He almost forgot that Liu Wenjian, a weakling, was still alive.

"It's good that you can come back. Go wash and rest first. After dinner, we will discuss the matter of slaughtering the secret realm."

Although Liu Haitao was contemptuous in his heart, he still pretended to be kind and tolerant on the surface.

After all, no matter what, Liu Wenjian is a branch of the Liu family and the cousin of his son Liu Yaoxiu.

Liu Wenjian's father made a lot of efforts to be able to sit on the position of the head of the family.

Although the other party is dead now, he is the only one left in Liu Wenjian's branch.

But the memorial archway must be erected.

Otherwise, it will cause the clan members to talk behind his back, and Liu Haitao, the head of the family, will not be comfortable.

Liu Wenjian obviously read the disdain in Liu Haitao's eyes.

But he didn't say anything.

He just bowed slightly and went back to wash and change clothes.

Those who didn't know the situation would think that he was forbearing and preparing for a sudden burst of energy.

But the Liu family, and even Liu Wenjian himself, knew very well that

he was just being cowardly.

Passing by the courtyard, Liu Wenjian ran into several Liu family members.

The latter saw his embarrassed appearance, combined with the news that spread inside the Liu family, and quickly guessed the truth.

Each of them had a concerned expression, but in fact their eyes were full of mocking smiles:

"Hello, Brother Wenjian! You are so tired, you must be busy in the Slaughter Secret Realm?"

"Hey, look at what you said, what kind of person is our Brother Wenjian? He is the mainstay of the Liu family and the ceiling of combat power! After entering the secret realm, there are so many clansmen to protect, he must be busy~~~"

"Yes, yes, yes, look at my broken mouth, I don't know how to ask questions. Brother Wenjian, what do you think of this trip to the secret realm?"

Several pairs of eyes curved into crescents, looking at Liu Wenjian as if watching a joke.

Liu Wenjian pulled the corners of his mouth, revealing a silly smile that is unique to cowards:

"It's good to be alive..."

"Hahaha... Brother Wenjian's speech is really insightful! We should take notes and pass it on every day!"

The Liu family children laughed together, pushed Liu Wenjian away, and continued to walk forward.

Liu Wenjian staggered and nearly fell.

For a moment, his smile disappeared and his eyes were filled with resentment.

But soon, he turned into indifference.

Just as he said, being alive is good enough.

Thinking that he had to take a shower anyway, Liu Wenjian didn't even bother to brush off the dust on his buttocks, and continued to walk forward at the original speed.

Halfway through, he met more than a dozen new faces, rushing towards the meeting room in a hurry.

Liu Wenjian wanted to ignore them this time.

But when he passed by these people, he suddenly felt a familiar chill on his body, which made him look at them twice more.

In the crowd, a man who looked like a team leader seemed to be scolding loudly.

The young team member shrank his head, with a cowardly expression on his face that was no different from his.

So pitiful...

However, due to the language barrier, Liu Wenjian could only sympathize with the young team member mentally for three seconds.

It's still important to take a shower...

After taking off his clothes, Liu Wenjian took out the toiletries from the space bag and stacked them beside him.

Everything was ready, and he began to scoop water from the water bucket to take a shower.

Although the temperature is not cold now, it is definitely not hot enough to take a cold shower directly.

The conditions are limited.

After all, it is almost a month away from the outbreak of the apocalypse, and Liu Wenjian has experienced such cold showers many times.

It stands to reason that he should have gotten used to it a long time ago.

But today, for some reason, Liu Wenjian felt that the water splashed on his body was particularly cold.

It was as if his body was soaked in an ice river in the cold winter, shivering constantly.

Liu Wenjian thought of his cousin Liu Yaoxiu, and a trace of envy appeared in his eyes.

I heard that he seemed to be able to take a hot shower every day, and his life was no different from before the outbreak of the apocalypse.

It's great to have a father who is the head of the family.

If only his father were still alive.

There is no need to be so demanding to be the head of the family, as long as he is alive.

"A-choo!"

Liu Wenjian threw the ladle back into the bucket and rubbed his arms vigorously.

He couldn't wash anymore. If he washed again, he would definitely catch a cold.

His uncle didn't like him anymore. If he got sick again, he would become a burden and his situation would probably be even worse.

"If only I could have a fire-attributed crystal, I could take a hot bath like my cousin..."

Liu Wenjian muttered to himself.

But as soon as the thought came up, he extinguished it by himself.

What a beautiful dream.

A vow contract of ordinary quality had already made him suffer from contempt.

Using fire-attributed crystals to boil water for a bath?

He thought of it!

"It's more reliable to collect more wood during the gaps between missions..."

Mumbling to himself, Liu Wenjian sat on a small stool and began to wash his clothes.

Little did he know,

An invisible ghost claw was slowly retracting from the three-inch position of his head.

"Don't mess around, my lord has ordered that this man be kept and not killed."

The Chinese ghost Shi Wenye passed on the message silently.

"It's so boring to finally find a lone person." The Western ghost Liu Yuanda grinned and licked the fangs on his lips:

"Old North is still good at killing people... I heard that Old South found a lot of good things? I'd better go and take some."

"Forget it." Shi Wenye shook his head and looked into the distance.

His sight seemed to be able to penetrate the wall and the door.

"My Lord will be here soon. We will cooperate with other soul guards to eliminate the threat!"

...

"Shit, you Chinese are too untrustworthy! You said you would help each other and cooperate for mutual benefit, but in the end, you are full of conspiracy and intrigue!"

The leader of the Korean team was so angry that he slammed the table.

With the bonus of strength attribute, the solid table collapsed, and the teacup and tea broke and scattered all over the floor.

Liu Haitao, who was sitting opposite, was splashed with tea, and his face was as black as ink.

But he did not get angry, just silently waved his hand, signaling the servant to make another one.

Then, he slowly spoke:

"Why is Minister Wu so angry? The cause of death of your country's President Park has not been investigated clearly."

"Isn't it a bit too hasty to put the blame on us so easily?"

Wu Nengli gritted his teeth:

"Then you tell me, how did President Park die?"

"He is an assassin with 'Fate Selection Specialization' and a strong man with the 'Netherworld' four-piece set!"

"If someone in your group hadn't plotted against him, how could he have gotten into trouble!"

Seeing the other party's aggressiveness, Liu Haitao's eyes sank, and his tone was no longer as polite as before, and began to become yin and yang.

"If all the children of the Liu family returned this time, I might have really believed Minister Wu's words."

"It's a pity that the Liu family also suffered heavy losses, and only two people returned alive!"

"Among them, my son Liu Yaoxiu had to use a life-saving item to barely escape!"

"You said we plotted against your President Park, so can I also say that your President Park is plotting against our Liu family?"
