Chen Yuanshan and Li Jianyuan forcefully pulled their swords back, causing the zombie to grimace and emit a painful howl.
As Chen Yuanshan and Li Jianyuan retracted their swords, they left a wound on the zombie's hands, oozing green blood.
"Old Chen, his copper-armored body has been broken through!" Li Jianyuan excitedly exclaimed to Chen Yuanshan.
"Let's finish him off!" Chen Yuanshan gritted his teeth and shouted to Li Jianyuan, vigorously attacking the zombie with his Copper Coin Sword.
At this moment, Li Jianyuan, not intimidated anymore, swung his sword forcefully at the zombie's body.
Chen Yuanshan and Li Jianyuan used their swords to create dozens of wounds on the zombie's body, causing it to howl in agony.
When Chen Yuanshan swung his sword toward the zombie's heart, the undead creature sensed the impending danger. It dodged to the right, and Chen Yuanshan, possibly anticipating this move, lifted his Copper Coin Sword, slicing off the zombie's left arm, which fell onto the roof of Chen Yuanshan's car.
The zombie, having its left arm severed, let out a furious roar.
At that moment, Li Jianyuan swiftly thrust his sword towards the zombie's head.
The sword entered through the zombie's mouth and pierced through the back of its skull.
With the penetrated head, the zombie's right arm hung down, and it instantly lost its life.
Li Jianyuan pulled out the sword with a "plop," and the zombie collapsed to the ground. "This should be the end of it," Li Jianyuan said as he kicked the corpse and muttered to himself.

Chen Yuanshan used his Copper Coin Sword to pick up the severed left arm that had fallen on the car roof.
The group of armed police guarding the archaeological site had only retreated into the village and hadn't left entirely.
"Zhang Botao is somewhat reliable. He only mixed one fake bottle among the two bottles of Black Dog's Blood. The other one is genuine," Chen Yuanshan remarked, catching his breath and looking at the lifeless zombie.
"We were able to kill this zombie thanks to Xiao He. Otherwise, we might all be finished here today," Chen Yuanshan praised me.
With Chen Yuanshan's compliment, I felt a bit fluttery in my heart, sensing that I still had a considerable presence.
"Xiao He, I see the armed police have only retreated into the village without leaving completely. Go over and call their leader," Chen Yuanshan instructed me, looking towards the village.
I nodded to Chen Yuanshan and headed towards the village.
At this moment, I felt an itch on my chest. Lifting my shirt under the moonlight, I noticed a roughly fifteen-centimeter-long scratch on my chest. The zombie had left a shallow blood streak on my chest, but I paid it no mind.
"Captain Qin, my master wants to see you. It seems he has something to discuss with you," I found Captain Qin, who was currently discussing the night's events with his subordinates and cautioning everyone to keep it confidential.
"Where's that zombie?" Captain Qin didn't immediately follow me but instead stared in the direction of the back mountain with a serious expression.
"We killed it," I replied.
"Stay here; I'll go take a look," Captain Qin said to his subordinates.
Captain Qin followed me towards the back mountain, and we arrived at the scene where the zombie had been defeated by Chen Yuanshan and Li Jianyuan.
Seeing the lifeless zombie and the severed arm, Captain Qin sighed with relief. "It's finally dead. You guys did a great job."
"Captain Qin, my master wants to discuss something with you," I reminded him.
Captain Qin nodded and said to his subordinates, "You guys continue to guard here. I'll go talk to Master Chen."
We returned to the archaeological site, and Captain Qin followed me to where Chen Yuanshan and Li Jianyuan were.
"Master Chen, Captain Qin is here," I announced.
Chen Yuanshan looked at Captain Qin and said, "Captain Qin, there are more things we need to discuss."
