Immortal in The Apocalypse

After listening to Zhu Lin’s words, Xiu Wu chuckled. He then looked at the kitchen counter that was covered with flour and sighed helplessly.

Hearing Xiu Wu low laughter and helpless sighs, Zhu Lin said with a red face: "Don’t laugh."

Xiu Wu looked at her blushing face and said with a smile: "All right. I won’t laugh."

After speaking, he glanced at the messy kitchen and asked, "Xiao LIn, why don’t you wait with Lao Yang and Xiao Wei in the living room and leave the rest to me?"

Zhu Lin shook her head and said, "But you are a guest. How can I let you cook alone?"

"Then don’t treat me as your guest." He said softly.

Before Zhu Lin could react, Xiu Wu helped her wash her hands, and led her to the living room. After glancing at his two friends with warning in his eyes, Xiu Wu looked at her and said, "Sit here and accompany our guests."

After leaving this sentence, he walked back to the kitchen. A few seconds later, Zhu Lin came back to her senses and scratched her cheek in doubt.

Seeing the puzzled look on its master’s face, Tu Tu sighed and thought: ’My master is really stupid. I don’t know when she will find out that she was tricked by him. When the time comes, her expression will be very funny.’

Seeing her puzzled look, Ji Yang smiled and said, "Xiao Lin, I heard from Lao Xiu that you sell water and vegetables in the market."

Hearing what he said, Zhu Lin nodded and said, "Yes. I need the crystal nucleus, while they need water and food. This is a win-win situation for everyone."

Ji Yang nodded, and asked again: "Do you need crystal nucleus urgently?"

Zhu Lin thought that after absorbing so many crystal nucleus, her cultivation base only improved a little bit, so she nodded. She thought his question was a bit strange, so she looked at Ji Yang and asked, "Why are you suddenly asking this? Do you need more vegetables and fruits?"

He shook his head and said, "We still have a lot of vegetables. I’m just curious why you need so many crystal nucleus."

Zhu Lin nodded and calmly said, "I need a lot of crystal nucleus to improve my cultivation."

As soon as she said this, Tan Wei and Ji Yang exchanged glances. After Xiu Wu left their apartment last night, the two of them discussed for a long time. From the first time they met Zhu Lin, they knew that she was different from ordinary people like them. Since Xiu Wu likes her, as his best friend, they should learn more about Zhu Lin, just in case.

A few seconds later, Tan Wei asked, "Xiao Lin, you said that you need crystal nucleus to improve your cultivation. Are you like those cultivators in novels who can ride the wind and call the rain?"

Hearing his question, Zhu Lin smiled and said, "The only one who could call the rain is the God of Rain. As for riding the wind, after becoming a god, we can indeed fly. But if you reach the Golden Core Realm, you can also use the spiritual artifact to fly."

As soon as she said this, Tan Wei immediately widened his eyes, looked at Zhu Lin with admiration, and asked cautiously: "Xiao Lin, so you are a cultivator?"

Zhu Lin thought for a while and said, "I think I’m a cultivator now."

Because her god core has been shattered and she already turned into a mortal, she should be regarded as a cultivator. Moreover, since she can say it out loud, it means that she is indeed a cultivator now, instead of a god. Because she can’t lie, if what she wants to say isn’t the truth, she can’t say it out loud.

With her confirmation, Tan Wei couldn’t sit still anymore. After hearing that Zhu Lin was a cultivator, he had already forgotten his mission to check Zhu Lin’s background. As a die-hard fan of Xianxia novels, Tan Wei feels that he has finally met the protagonist in those Xianxia novels.

Ji Yang, who was sitting beside him, saw his expression, face-palmed and thought: ’It’s over. Xiao Wei must have forgotten our purpose for coming today.’

Not paying attention to the signal from Ji Yang, Tan Wei looked at Zhu Lin and asked seriously: "Xiao Lin, do you think I can cultivate like you? I also want to be able to fly in the sky like the protagonist in the novel."

Hearing his question and seeing his serious expression, Zhu Lin checked Tan Wei’s body with her divine sense. A few seconds later, she withdrew her divine sense and said, "You don’t have a spiritual root, so you can’t cultivate."

After hearing her words, Tan Wei slumped back on the old sofa and sighed in disappointment. Then he looked at Zhu Lin with envy, and said, "It must be very fun to be able to cultivate."

Zhu Lin looked at his expression that resembled a withered eggplant, and chuckled lightly. She shook her head and said, "You’d better be a mortal. The road of cultivation is not as fun as you imagine, because everything is bound by karma. Even small acts of evil can lead to gruesome deaths."

After she finished speaking, she thought for a while and said, "The only good thing is the long lifespan. But if you live alone, what’s the use of a long lifespan?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Xiu Wu came out of the kitchen and said, "The meal is ready. Let’s eat first."

Zhu Lin looked at Ji Yang and Tan Wei, then said, "Let’s go."

Watching Zhu Lin walking towards the kitchen, Ji Yang looked at Tan Wei and said in a low voice: "I don’t think we need to investigate her anymore. If Xiao Lin really had ill intentions towards Lao Xiu, she wouldn’t have told us anything just now."
