Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1175 - 1172: Yin Yang Harmony

Lin Tian poured out the Healing Medicine from the bottle, revealing black pills that emanated a faint, pleasant fragrance when exposed to the air. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Lin Tian had seen Zhang Lingyu’s Healing Medicine in action before; last time, her severe back injury healed without leaving scars after using her formula.

Zhang Lingyu took the Healing Medicine, swallowed it, then sat cross-legged to regulate her breath, only opening her eyes after a dozen minutes.

"How are you feeling?" Lin Tian asked. In fact, he didn’t need to ask; he could already see that the Healing Medicine merely temporarily restored her ability to move. Forcing herself to overuse the White Tiger Seal, even without being wounded, would lead to backlash.

Zhang Lingyu didn’t answer Lin Tian’s question. Instead, she stood up with a somewhat forlorn expression, saying, "You should go."

Lin Tian frowned and said, "Zhang Lingyu, if you want to settle scores with me, I have no objection. After all, we were born enemies. But you could have hit me directly, why deliberately miss? Why intentionally take my blow?"

"Why are you a zombie, why... I can’t do it, I can’t..." A complex and sorrowful expression flashed in Zhang Lingyu’s eyes, not answering the question.

"Lin Tian, I truly don’t know what to do. From childhood, my life’s mission has been to slay demons and exorcise evil spirits. This belief has never wavered. But... but I met you. Why did I have to meet you..."

"I tried my best just now, and yet I still failed to subdue you. I only wanted to account for my steadfast belief..."

Zhang Lingyu spoke with a tangled narrative. Clearly, her mind was already in chaos. Between her beliefs and Lin Tian, she couldn’t sort out which to uphold. At least at this moment, she was confused.

Although her words were disjointed, Lin Tian understood her general meaning. He remained silent for a moment before softly saying, "Lingyu, do you like me?"

Zhang Lingyu was stunned, a hint of panic flashing in her eyes. She quickly came to her senses and said, "No, you’re a zombie, and I’m a Heavenly Master; it’s impossible between us. I just don’t want Xuanxuan to be troubled, don’t think too much." Yet her expression was abnormally desolate after finishing speaking.

"Alright, I won’t overthink it. Be it a Heavenly Master or a zombie, what’s important now is you need to heal. Come back with me." Lin Tian didn’t pursue the matter further but said earnestly, "Once you recover fully, if you still want to fight, I’ll be with you."

But Zhang Lingyu shook her head and said, "I have to leave."

"Leave? Where to? Your family villa is near the Xiao Family, and you still haven’t filled out your college applications." Lin Tian didn’t understand what she meant.

"You met my senior brother last time. I came to Xikou City with a mission, and now the vampire female leader has left. Since she obtained the Blood Angel, she will surely leave Huaxia. I have no reason to stay; I must return and report." Zhang Lingyu took a deep breath, appearing once again as the demon-exorcising Zhang Lingyu as she spoke indifferently.

"Return to report?" Lin Tian asked instinctively.

Zhang Lingyu shook her head slightly, not answering. Instead, she said, "What worries me most now is Xuanxuan. Her life is constantly in danger, and she can’t practice your Cultivation Technique. However, there’s another way to solve the special energy within her, except it’s a pity..."

"What? You have a way, then tell me, what’s a pity?" Lin Tian, agitated, grabbed Zhang Lingyu’s hand, exclaiming. This was the best news he’d heard all day.

Zhang Lingyu gently freed her hand from Lin Tian’s grip and softly said, "Although I don’t know what kind of energy it is, I can confirm it’s fire-attributed, somewhat similar to your Purple Fire, but still different."

"Your Purple Fire leans towards destruction, while Xuanxuan’s energy shows extreme yang traits, and it can heal Xuanxuan’s injuries. If this energy appeared in an Ancient Martial Artist, it would be a top-grade energy, but for Xuanxuan, it’s disastrous, as her body is too weak to withstand such high-grade energy."

Lin Tian nodded to indicate his understanding, motioning for her to continue.

"According to medical principles, extreme yang must be harmonized with extreme yin. As long as yin and yang are balanced, Xuanxuan’s problem should naturally dissolve." Zhang Lingyu stated seriously.

"Extreme yin and yang? Balance yin and yang?" Lin Tian was taken aback, his expression becoming a bit odd.

Zhang Lingyu gave him a glance, seemingly knowing what he was thinking, and decisively said, "A big pervert is a big pervert, I know what you’re thinking, it’s definitely not about male and female union to balance yin and yang, you’re overthinking it."

Though Lin Tian had thick skin, he still found this moment awkward, as that was indeed his thought.

Lin Tian considered himself a zombie, of the yin attribute, and imagined coupling with Second Miss for yin-yang balance, which would not only heal but also promote bodily interaction—oh no, emotional interaction—resulting in multiple benefits.

"Ahem..." Lin Tian faked a couple of coughs and said, "Since it’s not male-female yin-yang balance, then what should be done? Why didn’t you say anything while at the Xiao Family?"

"I didn’t mention it because I thought it too difficult, nearly impossible to achieve, and also, it can’t let Miss and Tang Ziqing know." Zhang Lingyu shook her head saying.

"You find it hard, but maybe it’s easy for me. How do you know I can’t do it if you don’t say?" Lin Tian quickly responded.

"The zombie blood of the Four Great Zombie Ancestors, can you obtain it?" Zhang Lingyu asked with much doubt: "Though you’re a zombie, do you know where the Four Great Zombie Ancestors are? Even if you knew, how would you get them to obediently give you zombie blood?"

Lin Tian was rendered speechless. Jiang Chen, Nu Ba, Houqing, Ying Gou—he had only learned of these big shots’ existence from others.

He could mostly confirm that the young female zombie Qingyao was indeed Nu Ba. Yet even so, obtaining zombie blood from Qingyao seemed unlikely, as Lin Tian didn’t know where the young female zombie was.

Not to mention Jiang Chen, Houqing, and Ying Gou, those legendary figures—it was uncertain if they even still existed in modern times.

Even if they did exist and could be found, Lin Tian had no way to obtain zombie blood from them. These ancestor-level big shots could destroy him with a mere flick of their fingers.

"It’s really difficult, but at least there’s hope. Maybe fate will bring an opportunity to find them," Lin Tian said, unwilling to abandon that hope.

"Using the ancient Deer Chasing Battle as a temporal boundary, the four great zombie ancestors disappeared for thousands of years, unseen by demon exorcists. Even if you have Nu Ba’s bloodline, can you find her now? Let alone the other three." Zhang Lingyu countered.

Lin Tian wasn’t disheartened and said, "I know it’s improbable, but since you brought it up, surely there must be another way."
