Chapter 249: Most Frivolous Healer
“Hey, they’re out, they’re finally out. We can go back now~” As the people in the barracks cheered, An Luming dropped the tablet that she was holding and quickly strode out.
Boom!
An Youyou, resting her head on her shoulder while sleeping soundly, suddenly fell onto the ground as soon as An Luming left.
The most terrifying thing was that An Youyou was lying on the ground and was still unconscious…
The bunch of children had really suffered.
As soon as An Luming ran out, she saw four “dirty little kids” coming out of the volcanic Dimensional s.p.a.ce. They were Jiang Xiao and his teammates. At this moment, they were all disheveled and covered in filth.
The soldiers on guard sent some military coats and water to them, after which they immediately wrapped them up, ignoring the filth on their bodies.
The initially listless Xia Yan suddenly grabbed the bottle of room temperature mineral water with glistening eyes and raised her head to chug it.
Her eyes glistened when she looked at the mineral water, looking like she was in love…
In the barracks, several partic.i.p.ating teams walked out listlessly and looked at the team from Jiangbin High School with a hint of admiration in their eyes.
They truly lived up to their prestigious reputation.
Everyone had had high hopes on the team of tyrants from Jiangbin High School, and all eyes were on them. Everyone was waiting to see their results.
So far, their results had been pleasant and gratifying.
Putting aside their final score, they were more hardworking and determined than everyone else.
The team from Jiangbin High School had come out of the volcanic Dimensional s.p.a.ce just in time. Hence, they had lasted for the longest time in the hot environment. That was the best proof of their hard work.
The teams of students that had just exited the barracks were considered the last batch. They were all waiting for the last team to return to Earth so that they could all be sent to the official designated hotel in Jiacheng City to get some rest.
An Luming cheered for joy. It was not that she was hoping for the team from Jiangbin High School to return safely, but rather, she was glad that she could finally leave this h.e.l.lhole and head back to the hotel, take a bath, and get a good sleep.
Jiang Xiao was too lazy to even speak. He had no idea how An Luming had the energy to cheer.
The staff arranged for the students to get on the bus. Everyone was finally free of suffering. However, after just a few minutes into the journey, the sounds of snoring could be heard and An Luming slipped back into her usual slumber.
Jiang Xiao could hear the person in the seat in front of him snoring rather loudly. He vaguely remembered that An Luming was seated in front of him.
A cute little girl like her is actually snoring?
Jiang Xiao was filled with doubts, but he had also slipped into a trance and drifted off to dreamland.
In fact, Jiang Xiao just had to lean forward to verify who the person in front of him was. However, he no longer had the energy to do so at the moment.
After coming out of the volcano and entering the barracks, Jiang Xiao stopped being so tensed up and was suddenly overwhelmed with fatigue. Unable to resist it, he dozed off.
After some time, Han Jiangxue woke him up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he was greeted with the sight of Han Jiangxue’s dirty face. Fatigue was written all over her face and she looked rather pitiful.
“We’ve arrived at the hotel. Get up and go in to get some rest,” Han Jiangxue said in a gentle voice, immediately making Jiang Xiao sober up.
What happened?
Since when has she ever spoken so gently?
Could it be…
Okay, she’s tired.
When the cold and aloof Sissy is dog tired, her tone is no longer cold and indifferent. She’s no longer lofty and standoffish like a deity. Her voice is now soft and sluggish, and she’s giving off a completely different vibe now.
“Remember this feeling.” Jiang Xiao tried his best to sit up and continued, “From now on, you should always speak to me in such a tone.”
Han Jiangxue didn’t even bother to stare at Jiang Xiao. Instead, she took out two Lava Ghoul Witch Star Beads from her pocket and shoved them into his hand. “When you go back, absorb this Star Bead, clean yourself up, and get a good rest. Hurry and get up.”
“Uh…” Jiang Xiao scratched his head. He enjoyed the feeling of being cared for, but he also knew that humans had limited patience. Clearly, everyone on the bus was on the verge of losing their patience.
For example, Wu Haoyang, seated in front, was being shaken by his teammate Qian Zhuang. Qian Zhuang yelled, “Get, get, get, get, get up! Get up!”
Bang!
Wu Haoyang turned over and elbowed Qian Zhuang with his iron-like elbow, causing his head to be smashed against the gla.s.s window. He looked extremely miserable.
Jiang Xiao grinned and gave Qian Zhuang a Blessing just in time, to soothe his broken heart.
To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, half of Qian Zhuang’s body was stuck outside and he was s.h.i.+vering uncontrollably. Amidst the wonderful predicament, he was actually too lazy to even crawl out and closed his eyes to sleep…
He was put to sleep by Blessing!?!
Oh my, impressive.
There was an old saying that went: “Climb back up where you fall.”
Today, Qian Zhuang used his actions to prove that he would fall asleep wherever he fell.
The scene was recorded by the camera on the bus and seemed to have become the bloopers of the growth of this group of Star Warriors.
Jiang Xiao and Li Weiyi returned to their room and tried their best to wake up. After was.h.i.+ng up, he gave himself a shot of Blessing and restored his physical condition.
Holding the two Lava Ghoul Witch Star Beads that Han Jiangxue had given him, Jiang Xiao absorbed them without hesitation.
With the addition to the two Lava Ghoul Witch Star Beads that they had obtained in the volcanic Dimensional s.p.a.ce previously, the Bell and Imprint in Jiang Xiao’s internal Star Map had become Silver Quality Level 5.
After the officials compensated them with two Lava Ghoul Witch Star Beads, Bell and Imprint would be upgraded to Level 7, and soon, they would be upgraded to Gold Quality. Who knew if there might be any special effects after the upgrade?
With those joyous thoughts, Jiang Xiao drifted off to dreamland.
…
He was woken up later by a particularly gentle voice.
The voice was gentler than most of the hosts of the rated live-streams that usually took place at midnight.
The voice was gentle and the way that he was coaxing…
Jiang Xiao began to s.h.i.+ver and he suddenly opened his eyes while stepping back frantically. At last, he fell onto the bed.
The gentle and caring voice asked, “Xiaopi?”
Jiang Xiao got gooseb.u.mps all over his body and he tried to get up using both hands. He tried his best to see who it was, only to be greeted with a handsome face and a pair of smiley eyes that seemed to have been curled into the shape of a crescent.
Jiang Xiao asked in a dumbfounded manner, “Hai… Hai Tianqing?”
Hai Tianqing looked at Jiang Xiao smilingly and said with admiration and gratification, “I’ve watched your performance during the compet.i.tion. Well done, you were splendid.”
Duh, of course I’m splendid.
Who am I?
I’m the best healer in our village.
Jiang Xiao asked in confusion, “When did you come?”
Hai Tianqing explained smilingly, “I arrived last night. You guys have been sleeping for an entire day and night. It’s time to get up. At about ten o’clock, the officials will announce the results in the hall where the award ceremony will be held.”
Wrapped in the duvet and seated on the ground, Jiang Xiao looked at Hai Tianqing in a dumbfounded manner, only to see that he was clad in a navy blue suit, still looking like he was attending a wedding, as usual.
Jiang Xiao blinked and asked, “Why do you always only show up at the awards ceremony even though you’re never present to lead the team?”
Hai Tianqing scratched his head in embarra.s.sment and laughed. “When it’s time for the National League, I’ll be leading you guys.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Feeling rather awkward, Hai Tianqing took out two glistening Star Beads from his pocket and tossed them to him. “Look at this.”
Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up and he asked, “Star Bead? What kind of a Star Bead is that?”
Hai Tianqing answered, “These are the two Star Beads that the officials have given to you and Xia Yan as a form of compensation. Hand it to Han Jiangxue later and let her do the distribution. It’s not convenient for me to enter the girls’ room. Get up and wash up before calling your sister.”
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
It’s inconvenient for you, but is it convenient for me?
You’re afraid of being beaten up, but so am I.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head, looked at the bed opposite him, and said, “Li Weiyi, do it. I take a long time to wash up.”
Li Weiyi was lying on his side on the bed opposite Jiang Xiao’s, wrapped in his duvet and facing the wall silently…
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Hai Tianqing finally pulled his trump card and took out a letter from the pocket of his s.h.i.+rt. “If you wake them up and get up on time to attend the awards ceremony, I will give you this letter.”
Before Jiang Xiao could speak, Hai Tianqing continued pretentiously, “I’m really curious to find out who wrote this letter to you.”
Jiang Xiao scratched his head vigorously and looked at the smiling Hai Tianqing. At last, Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but raise his arm to give Hai Tianqing a shot of Blessing.
d.a.m.n it, I wish for you to be endlessly blessed!
I wish for you to enjoy great longevity!
Hai Tianqing never expected that the king of toxic healers would one day attack him with a Blessing. Hence, he didn’t dodge immediately.
“Uh…”
