Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 20: Grudge

When Pei Yijun heard Teacher Cao's words, he smiled and replied, "Teacher Cao, zombies are sensitive to sound and smell. I think it's better to go out in a small group."

Then, he glanced at the opposite team and added, "From what I see, it would be more efficient and less risky to divide your team into two or three smaller groups to search for supplies separately."

When everyone in Teacher Cao's team heard his words, they looked at each other and saw agreement in their gazes. They had also thought it would be better to move in small groups, but Teacher Cao was the one making decisions, and they didn't dare go against him.

After all, aside from Teacher Cao and several university staff members in their team, none of them had superpowers. If they opposed him, not only would they be unable to get food or water, but they might also get beaten.

Noticing their reactions, Teacher Cao glared at Pei Yijun and said, "Pei Yijun, do you think you are the only smart one? I don't need you to tell me what to do."

Pei Yijun smiled at his words and added, "Teacher Cao, my team and I need to head out to find supplies. If you are done talking, please move aside and stop blocking the door."

Seeing his nonchalant attitude, Teacher Cao refused to move and asked coldly, "What if I don't want to move?"

The moment he finished speaking, Li Yang stepped forward, cracking his knuckles as he said, "Then don't blame us for being rude."

Seeing him take a battle stance, Teacher Cao burst out laughing and said, "You want to fight me with your thin body? You are really overestimating—"

Before he could finish his words, Li Yang suddenly disappeared from his spot and reappeared in front of him. With his knee bent, he raised his gaze to meet Teacher Cao's shocked expression and said, "You talk too much."

Duagh! Bam!

The next second, he delivered a powerful liver punch. The force behind the blow was so strong that Teacher Cao was sent flying several meters, slamming into the wall.

Crashing against the hard surface, a sharp, searing pain exploded from his liver, spreading throughout his entire body. His legs went numb, and he slid down the wall, collapsing to the ground with a heavy thud.

"Cough!" he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

At that moment, he curled up with veins bulging as he vomited stomach acid. Saliva, blood, and a greenish liquid dripped from the corner of his lips as he struggled to stay conscious.

"Ughh..." he groaned weakly as his body twitched from the pain.

Seeing him defeated in one move, everyone in his team was left speechless. They turned to look at Li Yang, who gazed back at them nonchalantly, as if he hadn't just nearly killed Teacher Cao with a single punch.

After a moment of silence, Li Yang said, "Whoever blocks the door—you are up next."

As soon as they heard his words, they scrambled aside, no longer daring to stop them from leaving.

Seeing this, Pei Yijun smiled and said, "Teacher Cao, my team also has a strength-type ability user, so we won't trouble you to protect us."

Then, he looked at his team and said, "Let's go."

After they left, the students under Teacher Cao exchanged glances before deciding to follow after Pei Yijun. Rather than sticking with Teacher Cao, it was better to follow their Vice President.

Ten minutes later, only Teacher Cao and a few staff members remained. Watching the others leave, one of the staff members gritted her teeth and muttered, "A bunch of ungrateful, white-eyed wolves!"

After speaking, she quickly walked over to check on Teacher Cao. When she saw his pitiful state, a flash of disdain and disgust crossed her eyes, but she quickly concealed it by lowering her head.

When she looked up again, only concern and worry were visible in her eyes. She reached out to help him up and asked, "Brother Cao, are you okay?"

Feeling the throbbing pain in his body, Teacher Cao leaned against the wall, breathing heavily. That punch had nearly ended his life, and he was sure Li Yang hadn't even used his full strength. If he had, he might have died on the spot.

Clenching his fists, his eyes darkened as murderous intent surged in his heart.

'Li Yang, Pei Yijun—I will kill both of you!' he swore inwardly.

Not knowing that he had provoked a deep grudge, Pei Yijun and his team walked toward the building's entrance. They had cleared out the zombies inside and made sure to lock the door so they would have a safe place to stay.

Standing not far from the entrance, he looked at the students and said, "Today, we are going to search for supplies outside the university. Whoever wants to go is responsible for their own safety."

"Senior Pei, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that you won't protect us?" one of the students asked.

Pei Yijun looked at him and recognized him as one of Teacher Cao's members. Someone who could change sides so easily was not worthy of trust.

He looked at everyone and said, "I will say it clearly now. I have no obligation to protect you, nor do I owe you anything. Everyone here is a classmate, and we are teaming up for a better chance of survival."

Pointing outside, he continued, "Right now, no one can protect you besides yourself. If you don't get stronger, you will be killed. If you want to survive, you have to fight."

After he finished speaking, he observed the students exchanging meaningful glances. He noticed their calculating expressions and understood that they were afraid to take the first step.

But he was truly unable to protect everyone by himself. He also didn't want to take responsibility for other people's lives. Everyone had the right to make their own choices, and this was the only way he could help them.

After a moment, he asked, "So, who wants to come with me to find supplies?"
