An S-level talent in Shadow Control, huh? 

After Xu Chao’s death, his talent was also devoured by Qin Jun. Combined with Blood Bear’s talent, Qin Jun now possessed two incredibly powerful talents. 

Although Bear Transformation was only an A-level talent, it was a rare transformation type. After transformation, strength increased significantly, and even without transformation, it enhanced physical strength. 

After devouring Blood Bear’s talent, ordinary bullets and machine guns could no longer pierce Qin Jun’s skin.

As for Xu Chao’s talent in Shadow Control, it was even more heaven-defying. The shadow could continually evolve, and once it evolved from a primary shadow, it could merge with the main body, achieving immortality!  S~ᴇaʀᴄh the N0ᴠᴇFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Of course, it wasn’t true immortality. If both the main body and the shadow suffered devastating damage, he would still die. But as long as the shadow could keep evolving, merging into the void, Qin Jun would be effectively immortal. 

Unless the entire void was crushed into nothingness, Qin Jun would survive.

A trace of excitement flashed in Qin Jun’s eyes. Immortality! He never expected Xu Chao to give him such a huge surprise! In the apocalypse, having immortality was unimaginably valuable. 

The significance of these could not be overstated. Qin Jun was willing to give up all other talents for this immortality!

Looking at Xu Chao’s bones, Qin Jun felt a strange, indescribable sensation. Xu Chao had such a heaven-defying talent, yet he wasted it. If Xu Chao had spent just half a month cultivating his shadow, he could have achieved immortality. 

Even Qin Jun would have found him troublesome and might have let him escape. But Xu Chao didn’t take even the simplest step. His death was justified!

Beside him, Zhou Lan was paralyzed with fear, staring at Xu Chao’s corpse in shock, unable to utter a word. 

Qin Jun finally looked at Zhou Lan and asked softly, “Who are you?”

Although Zhou Lan had no real feelings for Xu Chao, she had lived with him for a long time. Seeing Xu Chao die in front of her, she felt a bit sad. 

But more than sadness, she felt panic and fear. She had been fine at home when suddenly a group of people stormed in and killed Xu Chao. As an ordinary person, how could she not be afraid?

However, hearing Qin Jun’s calm and gentle voice, she inexplicably felt a sense of peace. Blushing, she quietly explained her relationship with Xu Chao.

No one seemed surprised. A man and a woman living together in the apocalypse, with rampant human desires, meant Zhou Lan was likely Xu Chao’s woman. More bluntly, she was a tool for Xu Chao to satisfy his desires.

Qin Jun nodded, staring at Zhou Lan silently. He suspected Xu Chao had wasted all his time on her instead of cultivating. As Qin Jun stared at her, 

Zhou Lan’s face turned redder, her heart pounding. Did this young master of the Qin family fancy her?

Feeling a mix of shyness and acceptance, Zhou Lan thought it wouldn’t be too bad. Before the apocalypse, she had been a proud, wealthy heiress, but after the apocalypse, she accepted her fate. 

A woman without awakened talents like her would find her best outcome in attaching herself to a strong person, ensuring her survival. 

Zhou Lan knew who Qin Jun was: the scion of the top-tier Qin family from the old era! His handsome appearance made her less resistant to the idea.

Her only worry was that she wasn’t a virgin anymore. Would Qin Jun quickly grow tired of her? But she also thought Qin Jun should already know that…

As Zhou Lan’s thoughts raced, Qin Jun sighed. “It’s not your fault for being with Xu Chao.”

He looked at Zhou Lan with a flicker of emotion in his eyes and said, “Xu Chao had great talent but didn’t cultivate, leading to his death by my hand.”

Zhou Lan thought Qin Jun was worried she might hold a grudge for Xu Chao’s death. She quickly shook her head, wanting to explain. But then Qin Jun’s voice grew cold.

“His death was due to his own weak will, wasting time, and lacking the heart of a strongman. But you are also partly to blame. Because of you, he wasted too much time he could have spent cultivating.”

Zhou Lan was stunned, looking at Qin Jun. His gaze was cold and unfeeling, sending chills down her spine.

“Xu Chao possessed an incredible talent, but he became worthless due to a woman, dying without any value. His example should serve as a warning to all of you!”

Qin Jun, expressionless and cold, ordered his subordinates, “Kill her, sever her head, and make it a specimen to take back to Dongdu as a warning to everyone! In the apocalypse, cultivation is most important.”

“Do not indulge in carnal desires and forget your duty! The Qin family does not need those who can’t control their desires!”

Zhou Lan’s face showed disbelief. Qin Jun wanted to kill her?! Why?! She had done nothing wrong! She was just an ordinary person, unable to resist Xu Chao. If Xu Chao indulged in her body every day, what could she do about it?

Panicked and frantic, Zhou Lan screamed and tried to run, but a Qin family expert quickly grabbed her by the throat. Her consciousness faded, life slipping away, leaving one last thought.

This Qin family scion…is truly a devil…
