Chapter 289: Chapter 286: World of the Black Vortex

What kind of person was Yu Laosan?

The moment Chen Xing opened her mouth, he knew whether she was telling the truth.

"Little girl, I can tell with one look if you’re being honest! You’re still too green to play tricks on me!" Yu Laosan’s ferocious expression was quite menacing.

Chen Xing smiled, turned to the twenty or thirty foreign Superpower Users, and said, "He says that if I go with him quietly, he’ll help me deal with you!" She spoke in a foreign language.

Yu Laosan was a crude man. He had never learned any language other than the Huaxian tongue, so he didn’t understand a word Chen Xing said.

He just saw that these foreign Superpower Users were glaring at him hatefully, ready to fight at any moment.

Although he hadn’t learned any foreign languages, his perception was sharp.

Guessing that Chen Xing hadn’t said anything good, he beckoned to the translator behind him.

Immediately, Yu Laosan’s translator came over and translated what Chen Xing had said.

Yu Laosan was furious. "Motherfucker, you dare try to set me up?" His usually concealed vulgarity was now on full display.

Chen Xing tilted her head back and laughed, not taking Yu Laosan seriously at all. "You weren’t sincere about helping me, yet you expect me to follow you obediently?"

With that, she stretched out a hand.

A massive black vortex appeared beneath the feet of the crowd.

In that one move, she trapped more than two hundred people.

The remaining hundred or so people hadn’t yet noticed the danger and were merely preparing to strike at any moment.

Yu Laosan was very cunning. Seeing Chen Xing create the black vortex, he grabbed the shoulder of the person next to him and used them to leap out of its range of absorption.

He had witnessed Cadar’s ability before and knew that once you were caught, there was no escape.

’But... how does Chen Xing have this special skill?’

As he leaped away from the black vortex, he had already turned invisible.

Chen Xing couldn’t find him in time.

This time, she didn’t dare to be careless.

She had used the black vortex specifically to ensure she could capture Yu Laosan without any mishaps.

Yet he was the very one who got away.

’Well, I’m exposed anyway. Time to kill!’

Chen Xing immediately began to plunder.

She started with the Superpower Users who hadn’t been caught in the vortex, absorbing their powers a dozen or so at a time.

The Superpower Users began to fight back.

Whenever danger appeared, a protective shield would form around Chen Xing.

Soon, the Superpower Users had their superpowers taken from them.

Only a few Superpower Users remained, scattering in all directions.

Unsurprisingly, Chen Xing absorbed all of their powers, then pulled their bodies into the black vortex.

Afterward, like a Devil, she began to absorb the superpowers of the Superpower Users already inside the black vortex.

The trapped Superpower Users were already terrified, and seeing a dozen people have their superpowers drained in an instant scared them out of their wits.

But there was no way for them to get out of the vortex.

They could only watch helplessly as their own superpowers were drained away.

Just as Chen Xing was about to speed up and absorb the powers of the last few Superpower Users, she saw the vortex shrinking.

’It seems this thing is on a timer. It’ll retract on its own after a while.’

Chen Xing immediately moved on the remaining Superpower Users.

Suddenly, a force struck her from behind. By the time she sensed it, she had already been pushed into the vortex.

The suction was too strong; she couldn’t get out on her own at all.

It was as if a suction cup was below, holding her fast.

Alarmed, she immediately tried to use her superpower to retract the black vortex, but it seemed it was no longer under her control.

She never imagined she would be trapped by her own vortex.

At that moment, not far from her, Yu Laosan and his subordinate watched her with a mixture of triumph and reluctance.

Triumph, because they had captured someone as powerful as Chen Xing. Reluctance, because Chen Xing was about to be sucked into the darkness.

Wouldn’t all those seemingly incredible abilities of hers disappear along with her?

It would be best if they could steal them.

"Just tell me how you stole this ability, and we’ll figure out a way to save you!" Yu Laosan’s amiable expression returned.

’If I can just trick her into giving me her treasures, I’ll become the ruler of this world.’

Chen Xing’s lower body was already submerged in darkness, with no chance of salvation.

During this time, she had tried various methods, but nothing worked.

’If I’m going to die, I’m taking someone with me.’

A rope suddenly appeared in her hand. She threw it toward the two men in front of her and yanked.

She was fast, but... after shoving his own subordinate forward, Yu Laosan still managed to dodge.

Only his subordinate was caught by Chen Xing’s rope and pulled into the dark vortex.

In the final moment before she was completely submerged, Chen Xing suddenly thought of something. She pulled from her space the large backpack she always kept prepared as a decoy.

When a shaken Yu Laosan reappeared, the black vortex had already vanished completely.

Stunned, he searched for a long time where Chen Xing had disappeared, hoping to find any treasures she might have dropped, but it was all in vain.

From entering the darkness to her vision clearing, only an instant had passed.

There was no pain, no discomfort.

It was so comfortable that it felt as if she had just been dizzy for a moment.

But... when she saw the horrific scene in this wasteland, she understood why those people had screamed so painfully after entering the black vortex.

This place was practically a world of zombies.

On the boundless plains, Advanced Zombies were everywhere.

And the people who had been brought here earlier had undoubtedly become food for the zombies. The sight of them being devoured was horrific, and their screams were incessant.

Only then did she notice the place where she was standing. It was like a circular millstone, but magnified dozens of times.

She and the Superpower Users who had been stripped of their powers had all been thrown from the vortex onto this millstone.

At that moment, a group of zombies had already spotted her and were converging on the millstone.

She glanced at Mu Tao, the Superpower User who had fallen with her at the end. He had scrambled to his feet and was now staring dumbly at the scene before him, unable to believe his eyes.

He thought entering the black vortex meant certain death, but instead, it was as if he had arrived in another world.

However, how was this world any different from his original one?

It was also teeming with zombies!

Worried that Chen Xing would absorb his superpower again, Mu Tao blurred into motion and charged into the horde of zombies.

Chen Xing: "..."

’I didn’t expect this guy to be a speed-type Superpower User!’

’No wonder his sneak attack on me succeeded.’

Still... she was quite pissed.

’So it was his push that landed me here?’

She looked closely at the zombie horde and noticed that these zombies were slightly different from the Advanced Zombies she remembered.

’Their Level seems... a bit higher?’

These zombies were incredibly fast, and their fangs were even more vicious when they bit people!

She didn’t have time to study them in detail, as some zombies were already charging toward her.

Chen Xing dodged, intending to hide in her Jiezhi Space.

’After all, with so many zombies, there’s no need to fight them head-on!’

But... she couldn’t connect to the Jiezhi Space...

In her shock, she tried to enter her other spaces, but it was as if the connection was completely gone.

She had lost all of her spaces...
