Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse-Chapter 466
The snow fell heavier and heavier, and the weather grew increasingly frigid.
Despite Yun Xiaoxiao's exceptional talents, she was still just a six-year-old child, her physical resilience far inferior to that of an adult.
Unfortunately, amid the swirling snow, she fell ill with a fever.
And not just any fever—a dangerously high one.
Her entire body burned like a blazing fire, her skin frighteningly hot to the touch.
Lu Chen only had some basic medical supplies on hand—alcohol, gauze, saline solution—meant for treating wounds.
He had nothing specifically for colds or fevers.
After all, his own health was as robust as an ox's.
Since the age of nine, he had hardly ever fallen sick.
So, it had never crossed his mind that Yun Xiaoxiao might.
Seeing her suffering, Lu Chen crouched down and said, "Wait here. I’ll go find medicine."
Yun Xiaoxiao didn’t respond—she was already half-conscious.
Lu Chen ventured out into the snow-covered world, braving the storm and its dangers in search of a pharmacy.
But most of the medicine in the first few pharmacies had already been scavenged clean.
He had no choice but to keep searching elsewhere.
Worried about Yun Xiaoxiao, he pushed himself to move as fast as possible, not daring to pause even for a moment.
Finally, after a long search, he found some fever medicine in a distant pharmacy.
He rushed back and administered it to Yun Xiaoxiao according to the instructions.
He boiled water to make warm compresses, wiping her hands, feet, and neck.
After more than ten days of meticulous care, Yun Xiaoxiao finally recovered.
This ordeal led Lu Chen to make a major decision.
He decided to head for a large survivor base.
Originally, he had refused to be tied down to any base, focused solely on finding the person he sought revenge against.
But now, he changed his mind.
He had been searching for over a year, yet there wasn’t even a trace of his enemy.
Finding someone had been difficult even before the apocalypse.
Now, in this ruined world, it was like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Not to mention the constant dangers along the way.
If it were just him, he wouldn’t care.
But now… he had a little sister.
At first, he had felt nothing for her—just pity.
But day by day, as they lived together, he had truly come to see her as family.
Yun Xiaoxiao’s illness made him realize how perilous it was without proper medical care.
She was still so young—she would inevitably fall sick again.
This time, they had gotten lucky, stumbling upon a solution.
But what if next time, luck wasn’t on their side?
The safest option was to join a large base.
There, even if their freedom might be restricted, at least they’d have security.
Once his mind was made up, Lu Chen began preparing for the journey.
On a freezing morning, he and Yun Xiaoxiao set off.
They visited several bases, but none satisfied Lu Chen.
Finally, they arrived at a military stronghold—the Western Theater Base.
It was strictly run under military discipline.
Every person inside, except for the elderly, weak, or disabled, underwent training—even the children.
The base leader was principled and fair in his governance.
Lu Chen decided to stay.
Thanks to his outstanding abilities, he quickly earned a prominent position.
During the day, he led teams out to scavenge supplies and eliminate zombies.
Yun Xiaoxiao remained in the base, training alongside other children.
Only in the evenings did the two reunite.
Lu Chen would give Yun Xiaoxiao extra training, reviewing her progress and offering guidance.
Life settled into a quiet, orderly rhythm.
But Yun Xiaoxiao’s extraordinary talent soon made her a target of jealousy among the other children.
Her brilliance overshadowed everyone else.
And with the instructors praising only her, the resentment grew.
One day, just after training, Yun Xiaoxiao wiped her sweat and headed toward her quarters.
But as she turned a corner, she was blocked by a group of kids.
She recognized them—fellow trainees, all a year or two older than her.
Seeing she was cornered, Yun Xiaoxiao stopped and calmly studied them, waiting for them to speak.
"Hey, Yun Xiaoxiao, do you always have to show off?" one boy snapped.
"Yeah," a girl chimed in, scowling. "Why do the instructors only praise you?"
Their hostility was obvious.
Yun Xiaoxiao shrugged, spreading her hands in mock helplessness.
"You’re just bad, and you blame me for being good? Seriously… are you okay?"
Her words were an outright insult.
The group couldn’t hold back anymore.
"Beat her up! No way we can’t take her down together!"
"She might be better than us when she’s our age, but right now… hah!"
"Let’s go!"
They charged at her, fists swinging.
Yun Xiaoxiao’s eyes turned icy—not with fear, but excitement.
They started it. She was just defending herself.
Lu Chen had warned her to hide her true strength in the base.
She was too young to stand out too much.
So during regular training, she stuck to the basics, focusing on improving her weak physical endurance.
As for the lethal combat techniques Lu Chen taught her—those were only for emergencies.
She obeyed faithfully, never showing them off.
But today, these bullies had forced her hand.
To their shock, they had picked a fight with the wrong person.
Despite their numbers and age advantage, they were utterly outmatched.
Soon, they were sprawled on the ground, bruised and groaning.
Yun Xiaoxiao gazed down at them, a sweet smile on her face.
"Big brothers and sisters… want to keep going?"
Her tone was innocent.

Their faces twisted in pain.
Keep going?
No way!
They had never imagined Yun Xiaoxiao could be this strong.
They had come to pick a fight, only to be effortlessly beaten into the dirt.
This was… beyond humiliating.
Seeing their silence, Yun Xiaoxiao clapped her hands lightly.
"No? Then I’ll be going now."
Their thoughts were clear: Go! Just go! As far away as possible!
