Chapter 602: Chapter 0603: Soul Consciousness is Also Absorbed [4th Update]

Ye Qiu closed the room’s window and the door as well. However, Cai Yong’s underlings, who had just brought in the large net, hadn’t had a chance to leave yet.

Zhang Wei spat several mouthfuls of black, rotten liquid at Cai Yong’s underlings, hitting them on their faces and necks.

They screamed in agony, feeling as if the liquid, much like sulfuric acid, was corroding their bodies!

"Ah!"

The wails of Cai Yong’s underlings filled the air, and Ye Qiu hadn’t expected that the living corpse would do such a thing.

But for now, Ye Qiu needed to deal with the threat at hand. He could treat Cai Yong’s underlings later.

He grabbed the large net and hurled it directly at the living corpse. The net, designed for fishing, tightened the more one struggled against it. Zhang Wei, now ensnared like a big fish, found himself increasingly trapped by the net. No matter how he struggled, he didn’t have the strength to tear it apart.

The living corpse was now thoroughly entangled in the net.

"Ye Qiu, what is this dreadful thing?"

Cai Yong asked.

It was the first time he’d encountered something so terrifying.

Looking at his underlings, who had been splashed by the living corpse’s saliva, Cai Yong could see the severe corrosion on their faces and necks.

"Let’s get out of here."

The living corpse, tangled in the net, couldn’t escape.

But Ye Qiu couldn’t bring it out of the room either.

In this case, they had no choice but to burn the entire room down.

Liu Daqing, Zhang Yuehong, and Liu Lingxiu were outside, having witnessed the terrifying scene.

"Ye Qiu, what happened to that thing?"

"I’ve caught it with the net. I’m planning to burn it with gasoline."

"What about the house?"

Zhang Yuehong asked.

"Auntie, we can’t let that thing out, or it will harm many people. Go back to the room, take what’s important, and then we’ll leave."

Zhang Yuehong knew that was the only option.

Fortunately, there wasn’t much of importance in the room.

She quickly went back, grabbed a few things, and hurried outside.

Liu Lingxiu’s room had her clothes, laptop, the new underwear Ye Qiu had bought for her, and even today’s sanitary pads—which would all have to be abandoned.

She dared not go back in, and neither did anyone else.

Liu Lingxiu and her parents stepped outside.

"Pour the gasoline through the window."

Cai Yong quickly instructed his underlings to pour a large barrel of gasoline into Liu Lingxiu’s room. The gasoline flowed straight to the net.

Zhang Wei, whose consciousness persisted, smelled the gasoline and guessed that Ye Qiu intended to burn him to death.

Of course, he was already dead, just a living corpse.

Zhang Wei screamed and thrashed, but those outside could only hear muffled sounds, growing even more terrified.

The only solution seemed to be burning it away with a large fire!

After throwing the entire barrel inside, Ye Qiu said, "Light it up."

The power had been cut off, but it was clear the entire room would burn.

"Boom!"

A huge flame burst out from the window.

Zhang Wei, tangled in the net, struggled harder as the flames enveloped him, but he could only be consumed by the fire and high temperatures.

Until that moment, Ye Qiu didn’t know who this living corpse was or who had sent it. But it had almost killed Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming, and now it was after Liu Lingxiu. Ye Qiu felt no pity.

The fire slowly spread from Liu Lingxiu’s room, engulfing the entire house, burning everything except the livestock they had released.

Seeing the fire from afar, someone called the fire department, and the fire trucks arrived to put out the blaze.

But by the time they arrived, only a pile of charred bricks remained.

"The house is gone!"

Zhang Yuehong and Liu Daqing were stunned, unsure of what to do next.

"Uncle, Auntie, you can stay at my place for now."

The two knew it was their only option.

Even thinking about that blackened creature made them shudder in fear.

"Ye Qiu, what on earth was that thing!"

"A corpse, a dead body!"

"How could it move then?"

Liu Daqing asked.

"It was tampered with."

Ye Qiu guessed it might have been some sort of witchcraft.

As Ye Qiu prepared to treat Cai Yong’s underlings, having them wait at Cai Yong’s place, Ye Qiu suddenly felt himself absorbing a soul consciousness.

It was similar to the hundreds of soul consciousnesses he had absorbed when he was hospitalized at Jinling Hospital.

Unexpectedly, he had just absorbed another one.

To his surprise, this soul consciousness belonged to Zhang Wei.

He had wondered who this living corpse held a grudge against him, and it turned out to be Zhang Wei. Everything became clear—Zhang Wei’s body had gone missing after his death at the hospital.

Zhang Wei?

Ye Qiu hadn’t expected that even in death, Zhang Wei sought to trouble him and his friends.

But Zhang Wei could no longer reincarnate and would suffer eternal damnation because Ye Qiu had absorbed his soul consciousness.

Ye Qiu got into the car with Liu Daqing, Zhang Yuehong, and Liu Lingxiu, driving them to Cai Yong’s place. Leaving them in the car, Ye Qiu went inside to treat the injured underlings.

Inside, he saw the underlings with faces, necks, and hands corroded by the black liquid Zhang Wei had spat on them, turning the affected areas black.

The same deadly aura that had infiltrated Li Shen and Zhu Zhiming’s bodies had now entered these underlings.

Ye Qiu treated them one by one, first absorbing the deadly aura, then healing the corroded external wounds.

It took him about half an hour to treat all of them.

Cai Yong’s underlings were both amazed and astounded by Ye Qiu’s mysterious medical skills, though they were still terrified of the creature they had encountered.

"It’s over now."

Ye Qiu said.

As he and Cai Yong walked out, Cai Yong asked, "Ye Qiu, why do the dead still move?"

"You know about zombies, right? Just think of it as corpse transformation."
