Upon hearing this, Fu Shinan immediately turned to face Ji Zan. “You’re not injured, are you?”

By now, Man Yu and the others had also arrived. When they heard about the

High Priest, their anger flared. “That freak is back again?” Man Yu exclaimed.

Ji Zan’s voice grew slightly solemn. “I’ll take you back first, and then I’ll go after him. This person must die!”

However, Fu Shinan countered, “It’s difficult for you to deal with him alone. I’ll go with you.” If the old pervert used his power to suppress them, Ji Zan would also be constrained. To be on the safe side, they needed to eliminate him quickly. Otherwise, they wouldn’t know when the pervert would launch another surprise attack.

Ji Zan looked at her. “Just the two of us?”

Fu Shinan looked puzzled. “Who else are you planning to bring? We need to leave someone in the courtyard.”

“Okay,” Ji Zan said, sounding strangely pleased. After speaking, he walked ahead.

Man Yu watched with a smirk and teased Fu Shinan, “Your big boss is quite easy to please, huh?”

Fu Shinan asked absentmindedly, “What did you say?

She was still thinking about the High Priest and had no time to correct Man Yu’s reference to her “big boss.” She believed that the pervert had been monitoring them continuously. He knew that she could control his psychic powers. Since she hadn’t managed to kill him on several occasions, his vigilance had only increased. Moreover, he had no intention of letting them go. If they couldn’t kill him this time, it would be a never-ending problem. Man Yu laughed slyly. “Oh, nothing!”

Fu Shinan didn’t have time to deal with her and quickly returned to inform the others. She was ready to join Ji Zan in tracking down the High Priest.

Upon hearing this, Molly chimed in, “I’m quite familiar with the High Priest. Take me with you, I might be able to help.”

MO Cheng added, “I’ll go too! I’ll protect Fu Shinan.”

Ji Zan responded coldly, “No need. Fu Shinan and I will go alone. Having too many people might startle the snake.”

Fu Shinan thought it made sense and turned to MO Cheng. “Indeed! Moreover, he can suppress supernatural abilities. It wouldn’t help if you went, so it’s better to stay here.” What she didn’t say was that if MO Cheng has no supernatural abilities, he wouldn’t stand a chance against the High Priest in terms of physical strength. It was safer for him to stay.

Seeing that Fu Shinan agreed, MO Cheng could only nod.

Ji Zan gave a few instructions and then left with Fu Shinan. However, he couldn’t help but think of the earlier vision and said, “Don’t get too close to the woods alone. You might be in danger soon.” Fu Shinan looked at Ji Zan. “You foresaw something?”

Ji Zan nodded.

Fu Shinan smiled. “I understand.”

Seeing Fu Shinan’s smiling face, Ji Zan suddenly felt less anxious. Those visions were just warnings, and as long as he stayed by Fu Shinan’s side at all times, she would be safe.

Since the village had already been burned down, leaving no place to hide, the two of them went directly to the High Priest’s residence. The small house looked intact.

Ji Zan walked up and kicked the door open. The overwhelming stench of blood mixed with the smell of decaying bodies hit them, making Ji Zan stagger. He quickly said, “Don’t come in.” Then, he kicked open another door inside, revealing the same unchanged interior. However, there was no sign of anyone.

“He’s not here,” Ji Zan said as he held Fu Shinan and walked away, putting a considerable distance between them and the house before catching his breath.

Fu Shinan, too, had been holding her breath and finally exhaled. “Apart from this, can you sense if there are any other houses around?”

Ji Zan couldn’t predict that, but suddenly he remembered the High Priest’s wind-based abilities. It dawned on him. “Perhaps he never returned to this area. Instead, he’s far away from us…”

Fu Shinan immediately grasped Ji Zan’s meaning. With wind-based abilities, the High Priest could swiftly traverse the distance, no matter how far he was initially. She asked, “Should we search deeper into the woods?”

Ji Zan shook his head. “No, we are unfamiliar with this place, and there are too many unknown dangers. It’s not safe.”

Fu Shinan agreed with Ji Zan’s reasoning, and the two of them started heading back. However, they hadn’t gone far when they heard the sound of a car engine and the distinctive growls of zombies.

Both of them became alert and followed the sound. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝙚𝒘𝙚𝙗𝙣𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝓶

They saw a small white car surrounded by several zombies, who had once been villagers. The car seemed trapped and was being rocked by the zombies. Fu Shinan exclaimed, “There are people inside!”

Ji Zan nodded and rushed forward with a swift stride, kicking the nearest zombie away.

Fu Shinan also grabbed a reinforced stick and started smashing the zombies’ heads one by one, crushing them instantly..
