Chapter 466: Strange Illness

Time passed quickly. It had been more than a month since Qin Chuan returned to the third division.

During this time, there was still no movement from the house across his. This meant that Dan Yangzi had yet to return.

Qin Chuan learned from the other disciples that Dan Yangzi had been sent to the secular world by the upper echelons.

As for what he was doing, he did not find out.

Since it was taking such a long time, it didn’t seem like a simple matter!

For the past few days, Qin Chuan did not go to the Lan Lang’s residence to cultivate.

In this realm, there was almost no difference between cultivating for half a month and not cultivating.

Another few days passed.

Seeing that Dan Yangzi had not returned for a long time, Qin Chuan also had plans to enter seclusion in Lan Lang’s cave abode.

In the evening, Qin Chuan opened the door and happened to see Dan Yangzi walking over from a small path not far away.

“Old Dan!” shouted Qin Chuan.

Dan Yangzi was stunned for a moment. Seeing Qin Chuan standing at the entrance, he arrived before him in a flash.

“Old Qin, when did you return?”

After not seeing Qin Chuan for so many days, he had missed him a little. After all, they had been through so much.

Qin Chuan said, “I’ve been back for a long time.

“You, on the other hand, what did the higher-ups send you for? Why did it take so long? ”

He was still a little curious about this.

“It’s a long story.

“I brought some good food from the secular world. We can sit down and eat while we talk.”

Qin Chuan noticed the strange glint in Dan Yangzi’s eyes and immediately guessed that it probably wasn’t a simple matter.

He did not continue probing. Since Dan Yangzi said he would tell, he would definitely do so.

He still believed in Dan Yangzi’s character.

Entering the room, Dan Yangzi took out a few bags of food wrapped in lotus leaves from his storage ring.

For a time, the entire room was filled with the fragrance of lotus leaves and various delicacies.

Dan Yangzi unwrapped the lotus leaves, and delicacies came into sight.

Dan Yangzi swallowed his saliva and moved the food to Qin Chuan. “Old Qin, these are rare delicacies in the secular world. You have to try them.”

Qin Chuan didn’t reject him.

He tore up a beggar’s chicken and took a drumstick.

Ever since he was young, his favorites were drumsticks.

Dan Yangzi took the chicken head.

“Old Dan, there are no outsiders here. I even set up a restriction, no one will listen.” Qin Chuan said.

Dan Yangzi said while munching on the chicken head, “Two days after you went to the headquarters, I was sent to the secular world by the higher-ups.

“It’s said that there’s a strange illness in the secular world that we have to investigate. ”

“What strange illness?” Qin Chuan put down the drumstick and became even more curious.

“I call it a strange disease that turns people into walking corpses.

“This is an Imaging Stone. You can take a look yourself.”

Qin Chuan received the Imaging Stone. After activating it, a light screen appeared in front of him.

The background was a dilapidated street. The ground was covered in pools of blood of all sizes.

There were people walking on the streets.

They were in groups of two or three. Their clothes were in tatters, and their hair was disheveled.

The way they walked was like the zombies in the Plants vs. Zombies. Their eyes were blank, and they snarled repeatedly.

After Qin Chuan finished watching, all kinds of zombie-related movies and dramas appeared in his mind.

“Could this be due to a zombie virus?!”

Qin Chuan’s imagination ran wild. If that was the case, they would be in danger.

As he pondered, Dan Yangzi said, “The first thing we can be sure of is that the death rate is 100%. Furthermore, one won’t die quickly after getting it.

“Their bodies change, their souls disappear, and they end up like walking corpses.

“Once they catch the scent of a living person, they act like they have seen prey. They would definitely give chase relentlessly.

“Anyone who was targeted by them would not be able to escape.

“After catching up, they would bite the living to death.

“And it doesn’t end here. The person who was bitten to death will be revived, but unlike before, he will also become a walking corpse like them.”

Dan Yangzi said, “Old Qin, I’ve lived for tens of thousands of years, and this is the first time I’ve encountered such a strange illness. It’s really very strange and ridiculous.”

“Do you know? Cultivators like us aren’t spared either.”

“What do you mean?” asked Qin Chuan curiously.

Dan Yangzi took a sip of wine and said, “When we went there, we didn’t attract any attention.

“Some people in our party were scratched. Before long, they became like them.

“I used many methods on the disciples who were infected with strange diseases, but they didn’t work.

“I’m an Alchemy Saint. Other than alchemy, my medical skills are also my specialty.

“But if I cannot treat it, what does that mean?

“Once this strange illness is spread, the entire Immortal realm will be finished. ”

“Then, did you guys take care of all the people with the strange illness?” asked Qin Chuan.

“Duh! Why else would I have taken so long?” said Dan Yangzi.

“I’m telling you, these people are very difficult to kill. They still have combat strength even after getting their limbs broken.

“We only found the trick as we killed more of them.

“All we have to do is destroy their heads. ”

Qin Chuan slapped the table. “Are you stupid?! Since there’s no antidote, you didn’t leave one for research?”

“Leave one my ass. Who knows how the illness will spread?” retorted Dan Yangzi.

Qin Chuan thought about it and realized that it made sense.

According to those zombie shows, there really wasn’t any good solution.

The only way was to kill them all.

However, doing that was even harder than reaching the heavens.

After a moment of silence, Qin Chuan asked, “we’re they only in one area?”

Dan Yangzi said, “Currently, we only found one, but we can’t guarantee that there won’t be any elsewhere.

“The elders sent a large group of disciples to guard the secular world.”

“Alright then!

“Let’s pray that this doesn’t spread!” Qin Chuan made a gesture of putting his palms together.

“By the way! I heard that on the day of the Demon race’s challenge, a Demon deliberately went easy on you, that’s how you won. Is that true?” Dan Yangzi suddenly asked.

“Do you think that’s possible?” Qin Chuan rolled his eyes.

“Then you’re in trouble!” Dan Yangzi shouted. “With your skills, you must have been targeted by the Heavenly Secrets Court. I reckon they’ve already announced your ranking.”

Qin Chuan asked, “Are you referring to the Heavenly Secrets Court that works on rankings of the Chosen Roll?”

“Of course! That’s a faction with an Immortal Emperor guarding it. As long as they want to know, no one in the Immortal realm can escape their eyes,” Dan Yangzi said proudly.

“You’re not the owner of the Heavenly Secrets Court, you don’t have to be so arrogant,” retorted Qin Chuan.

“I like it, why do you care!” Dan Yangzi leaned his head over. “Bite me if you dare!”

Dan Yangzi was still that Dan Yangzi. If he didn’t bicker for a day, he definitely wouldn’t sleep well.

Qin Chuan didn’t want to argue with him. He was afraid that when the time came, he wouldn’t be able to tolerate it and would take action.

Seeing that Qin Chuan was ignoring him, Dan Yangzi gobbled down the worldly delicacies he had brought back.

Soon, all the food on the table was put into Dan Yangzi’s stomach.

“Old Qin, I’ll go back and take a shower first. I’ll come look for you later.” Dan Yangzi stood up and was about to leave.

He and Qin Chuan were old acquaintances, and both of them understood each other’s personalities. Therefore, they got along very casually. If there was anything they wanted to talk about, they would talk about it without any scruples.

“I forgot to tell you something.

“I met a heretic cultivator. My luck was a little bad, and I was cursed.” Qin Chuan put it to him casually.

When Dan Yangzi heard this, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he was stunned.
