Chapter 76: The Senior of the Apocalypse

Lin Jiawen ultimately tracks down Bai Yichen after an exhaustive three-day search, his tears flowing uncontrollably the moment he lays eyes on the familiar yet tragic figure. The person he has fiercely protected for years now possesses skin tinged with an eerie grayish-blue, marred by small wounds oozing dark, viscous fluid, and tattered clothing. To his profound horror, Bai Yichen is missing his right hand, his arm bearing the gnawed marks of being preyed upon by other wandering infected entities.

Overwhelmed by a harrowing grief and fury at the nightmare before him, Lin Jiawen unleashes his rage upon the surrounding horde of infected creatures, systematically dismantling them into piles of fragmented flesh. After purging the area with fire, he turns his gentle attention toward Bai Yichen, who is securely bound to a large tree. Speaking softly as though nothing is amiss, he holds the transformed partner close, carefully avoiding the snapping jaws while offering deep, unyielding affection.

Following these events, Lin Jiawen vanishes completely from the Lingxiao Survivor Base. He returns to Z City, where he and the entity of Bai Yichen reside in quiet seclusion. While the strong power-wielder from Z City maintains an ambiguous relationship with his former home—occasionally rescuing strangers yet heavily penalizing anyone foolish enough to stray into his monitored territory—the leaders back at the base struggle under a heavy, stifling atmosphere of quiet despair. 

...

Meanwhile, in a warmly decorated home within Z City, the powerful wielder Lin, spends his time gently wiping the face of the bound entity, utterly devoted to his unchanging companion.
