Apocalypse: I'm the Landlady of the Refuge

Chapter 174: Chapter 174 Do You Really Want to Beat Me Up Chapter 174: Chapter 174 Do You Really Want to Beat Me Up After calming down a bit, Zhou Kai laid out everything he had observed: “During this time, you asked me to keep an eye on Wang Youde. With 001 monitoring the surveillance inside the manor, and me following him incessantly outside, I can say that all his movements were under my watch. But just now…”

Zhou Kai furrowed his brows in confusion: “You asked me to strike up a conversation with Wang Youde. Fearing he might run off at any hint of trouble, I discreetly manipulated the vines to loosely coil around Wang Youde’s trouser leg. It was this very coil of vine that caused Wang Youde to instantly reveal himself!”

Ji Wanwan urgently asked: “What do you mean?”

Zhou Kai carefully recalled the incident: “The moment I called out to him, I felt Wang Youde froze like a robot, with an obvious glitch—a glitch that might have gone unnoticed by ordinary people, but to a high-level Awakener like me, it was glaringly obvious.

Without a thought, I immediately tightened the vines around Wang Youde’s leg, and the next second, there was another Wang Youde in his place.”

Ji Wanwan also knitted her brows in confusion: “What?”

Zhou Kai nodded affirmatively to himself: “Right, another Wang Youde appeared right where the first one had been, as if he had split without division, and this other Wang Youde just appeared out of nowhere.

This other Wang Youde seemed just as surprised to see the original Wang Youde had not disappeared. After a moment of shock, he immediately used something similar to Space Cutting to sever the vine on the original Wang Youde’s foot.”

The moment the vine was cut, the original Wang Youde also vanished.

All of this happened in an instant, before I even had the chance to intervene—the original Wang Youde was gone.”
