Chapter 494: Parting
Zhao Wenlong was an “ancient” person. As for how ancient he was … His phone wasn’t even a smartphone.
After the small party, Ming Ming and Zhang Ren both asked for Jiang Xiao’s WeChat and were given a place in their social media account. Zhao Wenlong was the only one who did not have WeChat or Weibo. His lifestyle was rather peculiar.
Ming Ming’s boyfriend was really outstanding. He was a top student in the law Department of the neighboring Imperial University. He had also pa.s.sed the judicial examination and was originally interning in a law firm.
However, ever since the last semester, Mr. Ye Hua was touched by Jiang Xiao’s remarks.”
An ordinary person would wait at home and leave early in the morning and return late at night. He would chat and walk with her at dusk when he was free, and he would cook supper for her when she returned from exhaustion at night … He was giving the Star Warriors the warmth and care they needed in another way and from another perspective.
Perhaps Ye Hua really saw this point, so he let go.
After knowing this, Zhang Ren’s choice was extremely firm. He gave up his dream of being a lawyer because this profession required a lot of time and energy.
Zhang Ren started to review the civil service examination and looked for a regular eight-to-five job. The focus of his life seemed to be to accompany hou Mingming.
Jiang Xiao didn’t know what to say about her behavior.
Zhang Ren was a man. He clearly knew what he wanted and was willing to work hard for it. However, he also gave up his dreams and some of his persistence and chose to cooperate with another person.
…
Everyone had their own choices, and Jiang Xiao didn’t have much to say. As an adult, he had the right to make his own choices and should also be responsible for his own choices.
The photo of Jiang Xiao, hou Mingming, and Zhao Wenlong was soon uploaded to Jiang Xiao and hou Mingming’s Weibo. The photo was taken by Zhang Ren, who could only be the photographer.
On the photo, Mingming’s post was: He was waiting to see.
Below, Zhang Ren’s comment was drowned out by a group of fans ‘comments: Good luck.
He was a photographer and also an audience member. He stood outside the photo and took it for her. He sat in the audience and silently watched her s.h.i.+ne.
Lowly little Ren, you’re cheering me on?
Jiang Xiao thought about it again and again, but he still didn’t comment on that. Being naughty and being vicious were two different things. He just hoped that everything would go well for this pair.
Jiang Xiao’s Weibo post was obviously more interesting than hou Mingming ‘s.
It was the same photo, but the words on top were:
“With this three-man lineup, how will it look for the World Cup team compet.i.tion? Even an elementary school student could win the champions.h.i.+p, [email protected] ”
At the end of the text, it circled that Xia Yan was the most coquettish one. That night, Xia Yan almost made Jiang Xiao’s hair bald …
However, such a cruel act didn’t last long before Jiang Xiao was called away.
Second last came and brought nine tails to the outskirts of the capital.
Jiang Xiao called for a private car and located it at a spa.r.s.ely populated service area on the highway from the capital to Jinmen city.
In the middle of the night, the car arrived at the service area of the provincial highway. The driver thought that Jiang Xiao was up to no good and was trying to Rob him in the wilderness …
A group of three (two?) After meeting up with them, they didn’t say anything and instead turned around to enter the forest beside the road. Second last’s intention was clear-she was here to take Xiaoxiao back.
During this period of time, because Jiang Xiao didn’t enter the dimensional s.p.a.ce, he didn’t have any low-level star beasts to feed the savage sorceress and lava Ghoul witch. Occasionally, he would buy a large amount of meat and throw it in. Even if he fed it, it probably wouldn’t be enough for the brutal star beasts.
In the deep mountains and forests, Jiang Xiao opened the ruins of calamity and shadow and walked in with second last, leaving nine tails to guard the door.
As soon as he entered, Jiang Xiao saw that the number of star beasts was wrong.
There were only seven lava Ghoul witches and five Savage witches left.
When Xiaoxiao saw the two of them, it stood up and ran over quickly. It was unknown if it was missing Jiang Xiao or complaining, but it gently b.u.mped its huge head against Jiang Xiao’s chest while its real master was left alone.
Second last frowned slightly and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice,””It’s much less. ”
Yes, it was much less.
However, this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that when the two of them entered, there was no fighting in the ruins of calamity.
Jiang Xiao looked at the star beasts that were resting against the wall of air and felt helpless.
Hunger, fatigue, and mental exhaustion … To what extent would these brutal creatures stop hunting and sit face to face with their prey to rest?
Bell was different from blessing. Bell healed wounds, while blessing restored vitality.
However, the savage sorceress ‘Halo could absorb the enemy’s scattered vitality, but their number had been reduced by half! He wondered what had happened in this h.e.l.l-like prison to maintain such a delicate balance.
Jiang Xiao rubbed Xiaoxiao’s head and shrugged his shoulders helplessly.””It can’t be helped. I’m really busy sometimes and I don’t take care of her. The last time I went to the forest of tears, it took me almost ten days to go back and forth, and I didn’t have the chance to feed them. They must be really hungry. ”
If this continued, the so-called pig-rearing would really become a kun-rearing.
Second last glanced at Xiaoxiao and said,””It could also be stealing from its own watch.”
Jiang Xiao and Xiaoxiao’s hearts tightened at the same time. To Jiang Xiao, even if Xiaoxiao really ate the prisoners, it was because it was really hungry. Xiaoxiao had done a lot of hard work, and Jiang Xiao was the one who wronged it.
But for Xiaoxiao … Master was right. The deaths of the lava Ghoul witch and the savage sorceress were either because it had let the tragedy happen or because it had taken the initiative to attack and forage for food. It was really going crazy from hunger, especially in such a prison. Its mental state was not very good.
The White Mountain snow feather had a pair of huge and pure white wings. It was used to fly in the sky and not to curl up on both sides of the body.
If it weren’t for the feelings that it had developed for Jiang Xiao, Xiaoxiao might have even launched an ice roar at him …
“Let’s try and see if they can advance,”Jiang Xiao said hurriedly.
Second last looked at Xiaoxiao, who was hanging her head low, and nodded silently.
Jiang Xiao cast a counter-current light on second last and threw another one on a lava Ghoul witch.
The lava Ghoul witch’s huge body trembled and it let out a deafening roar.
5 seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds …
Jiang Xiao stopped using counter-current light, and the roaring lava Ghoul witch also stopped. There were no changes to its body, but it was much more energetic. It quickly stood up.
Greatly taken aback, Jiang Xiao hurriedly looked at second last and thought to himself, I’m afraid that the counter-current light will not only take away second last’s star power, but also her vitality!
However, he realized that second last’s expression remained the same and a silver glow appeared in her hand. Jiang Xiao hurriedly activated nostalgia and the two of them cooperated tacitly. At the next moment, second last shot out the three arrows in her hands.
Jiang Xiao also cast a blessing.
The lava Ghoul witch, who was focused on second last, was completely engrossed in the blessing.
The three arrows helped second last recover a lot of vitality and star power. She then shot out huge arrows from the dark silver Bow in her hand, which quickly took the lava Ghoul witch’s life.
The star beasts ‘eyes lit up when they saw the corpse, and they swarmed forward. However, they were all knocked down by a small ice roar, and they ran away while wailing.
Jiang Xiao walked towards the broken corpse of the lava Ghoul witch and squatted down to look for the star bead.
Lava Ghoul witch star bead (gold quality)…
The star bead shattered in his hand and the Starlight fused into Jiang Xiao’s body.
After a long while, Jiang Xiao looked at second last and shook his head gently.
“Next,” second last said in a hoa.r.s.e voice.
Jiang Xiao nodded. Within 20 minutes, the two of them experimented with two more lava Ghoul witches and two more Savage witches, only to obtain the same answer.
While nouris.h.i.+ng second last’s body with blessing, Jiang Xiao thought to himself,”Perhaps upgrading them once was the limit, and upgrading them twice might not be allowed, or they would need a longer training time.
Second last closed her eyes and enjoyed it for a while before waving at Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao strode towards her, but second last pressed her hand on his shoulder, lowered her head, and said in a serious tone,””The world is never smooth sailing.”
Jiang Xiao was amused.”Why would I be affected by such a trivial matter? I’m a man of Steel.”
To his surprise, second last was very cooperative and nodded in all seriousness. She looked at the remaining four lava Ghoul witches and the three Savage witches and said,””I have to take Xiaoxiao away. There’s no supervisor here. The next time you come in, there might be even fewer star beasts left.”
However, Jiang Xiao was very decisive.”Kill them all. I’m going to partic.i.p.ate in the selection of the national team soon, followed by the World Cup. There should be students and teachers around me. Besides, I’ll also be in the spotlight. I won’t have any chance to feed them.”
Rather than letting them kill each other and leave one star bead for me, I’d rather take all of their star beads now. ”
Second last thought about it and nodded in approval of Jiang Xiao’s actions.
Jiang Xiao gave Xiaoxiao the Halo of nostalgia and patted its stomach.””Smash it with ice roar. You’ll like the feeling.”
As it turned out, Xiaoxiao really liked this feeling. In the Halo of nostalgia, Xiaoxiao was absorbing star power and vitality crazily. It was extremely comfortable, and its huge wings spread out and flapped gently.
Jiang Xiao watched as the group of half-dead star beasts were crushed to death by ice roar and asked,””Is it because of the incident at Mount nocturnal disaster that you want to bring Xiaoxiao with you?”
“Yes and no.” Second last turned around, lowered her head, and looked at Jiang Xiao sternly. She said,”the higher-ups have ordered me to join a light-chasing team temporarily as the leader. I can’t take on any disciples for the time being.”
“Nine-Tails can’t be with you anymore?” Jiang Xiao asked after a moment of shock.
Second last said,”I have to leave for a while.”
“How long?” Jiang Xiao’s heart tightened.
Second last shook her head and remained silent.
“Where are you going?” Jiang Xiao continued.
Second last shook her head again and did not respond.
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and speculated,’there are some countries in Central Asia that need help, right? Or is there a new dimensional s.p.a.ce that I don’t know about? Is there another dimensional s.p.a.ce rebelling?”
Second last’s face stiffened and she reached out to press her hand on Jiang Xiao’s head.””It doesn’t matter where or how long we’re going. What’s important is the order and the execution.”
“I’ll go with you,”Jiang Xiao said hesitantly.
Second last shook her head and said,”I’ll be watching you from a corner. You’ll be on the world stage. Your task is equally difficult.”
Jiang Xiao said, I …
Second last rubbed Jiang Xiao’s head gently and said with a gentle smile,””Perhaps your friends think that winning the champions.h.i.+p is your goal. However, I know that, compared to winning the champions.h.i.+p, fulfilling your promise to the heroic Soul Stage is your greatest source of pressure.”
Jiang Xiao looked up at second last in shock and thought to himself, she actually laughed … It was so gentle.
Second last bent down and pressed her forehead against Jiang Xiao ‘s. She looked into his eyes and said in a hoa.r.s.e voice,””I look forward to the day I walk into the martyrs ‘Cemetery with you. Three months from now, or maybe two years and three months from now.”
Jiang Xiao couldn’t stand the burning gaze. He tilted his head and said softly,””Thank you,” he said.
Second last took two steps back and said,”I hope you lose the compet.i.tion this time.”
“Why?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Second last returned to being expressionless and said calmly,””If you lose, I can imagine how hard you will work in the next two years.”
Jiang Xiao said,”I don’t need any extra motivation. I’ve never been lazy since the moment I entered high school.”
Second last agreed with that.
Jiang Xiao said in a deep voice,”I’ve worked so hard and persevered for so long. I didn’t do it to lose.”
“Ha.” Second last snorted and waved her hand before turning around to walk out of the ruins of calamity.
