After the Battle of Fengwei Mountain, Yang Xiaoxiao has been reclusive and rarely has contact with other people in the base except for necessary team training. Not long ago, Yang Bensheng led people to the Nanqi base. She escaped out of the city and hid in hiding. It was not until the group set off to leave that she emerged from the jungle and returned to the city lord's palace.
She didn't know what was wrong with her. It's not that she doesn't want to see her uncle Yang Jianye, on the contrary, she is actually looking forward to meeting that strange cousin and uncle. In fact, she is extremely eager for this precious family relationship in the end of the world.
But she wasn't sure she was qualified.
Then she thought of her mother, Yang Qinghua, and felt that it was Yang Qinghua who should go.
Yang Qinghua's life was too painful. She lost her mother when she was young. She watched her husband deteriorate step by step in her youth. Until her death, she was not understood by her only child, and was not even forgiven by herself.
If this family affection from the Yang family could be measured, Yang Xiaoxiao wished it could be left to her mother.
But it was only a little bit away, just a little bit away from Yang Qinghua arriving at Langya City, and only a little away from Yang Qinghua meeting the Yang family of Nan Qi. It was just a little bit close, but Yang Qinghua closed her eyes forever. It was pitch black in front of and behind her, and she was alone as far as the eye could see.
When Yang Xiaoxiao is alone, she often wonders, will she be lonely underground? Could she hear what I said at the grave? Can her kind and loving eyes still see my face through the thick layer of fallen leaves?
It was precisely because of his own escape and rebellion that he stubbornly stayed away from his mother, Yang Qinghua, and even did not hesitate to uncover her scars again and again, and exposed the bloody and painful wounds to the sun...
Including Lang Hua, for this brother with a different surname who came to her home halfway but loved her very much, did her willfulness turn into a sharp knife without mercy at some point, cutting into a sincere heart? It's dripping with blood...
Lang Hua got close to her now because of her willful choice to alienate her mother. Now that her mother is gone, she doesn't know how to face the latter.
It wasn't until she heard that Lang Hua was in crisis that Yang Xiaoxiao realized that in her heart, Lang Hua was already the most important relative.
"Six rocket launchers. Lang Hua was probably blown up so much that he couldn't even find the fragments. Letting him die without pain is really an advantage for him. If it falls into my hands, I will definitely let him taste this first." The pain of breaking off one's arms..."
"Have you said enough?"
Zhou Jin's voice stopped suddenly, and he lowered his head to meet Yang Xiaoxiao's hateful gaze. He looked at Yang Xiaoxiao at his feet with disdain, as if looking at a trapped animal.
Suddenly, the world in front of him suddenly froze, and his mind became hazy. The alarm bells rang in Zhou Jin's heart. The next moment his eyes suddenly lit up and he saw a Xuelan dagger stabbing into his heart. The tip of the knife was less than three inches away from him!
The sword was as bright as snow, and the eyes hidden behind the sword revealed murderous intent.
Section 2
"Mingguang Armor!"
"Ding--"
The dagger moved forward at great speed, but was unexpectedly stopped midway by Zhou Jin's defensive skills. Although the skill "Confusion" was activated, Zhou Jin's reaction was not slow. The light curtain instantly condensed into armor and covered his chest. At this time, Xuelan's dagger had penetrated an inch, and the pain mixed with the cold touch instantly woke Zhou Jin up.
Perhaps if the Mingguang Armor had appeared just a moment later, he would have died on the spot.
"Bitch!"
Zhou Jin shouted angrily and was about to catch Yang Xiaoxiao to prevent him from running away. Unexpectedly, Yang Xiaoxiao did the opposite, suddenly stepped forward and punched Zhou Jin hard on the bridge of the nose.
"ah!"
In an instant, the eyes were filled with purple and red, and the pain and soreness surged up along the nasolacrimal duct, making Zhou Jin's vision blurry.
"I told you to be arrogant! I told you to harm others!"
"If it weren't for you, my mother wouldn't have died."
"And brother Lang Hua, you actually..."
Yang Xiaoxiao punched every time he shouted, hitting the flesh, and the punch speed was even more shocking. For a while, Zhou Jin couldn't even lift his head.
This assassin who is accustomed to walking in the dark, this third-level master with the ability to evolve, at this moment actually forgot the principle of "if you miss a hit, you can escape thousands of miles away", and used his fists, feet and teeth like an ordinary person in a fight.
But after all, she had exhausted her crystal energy. She was completely exhausted and almost fainted. How could she continue to fight?
Finally, Zhou Jin seized an opportunity and stood up to overthrow Yang Xiaoxiao.
"That's enough!" He kicked the opponent away in the air and shouted, "I am defeated. You and Lin Qian couldn't defeat me at that time, and it's the same now! Whether it's my strength or the strength of the organization, they are far behind you. What these people can imagine!”
Yang Xiaoxiao opened her mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. Looking at Zhou Jin who had a bruised nose and swollen face, she sneered: "Even if Brother Lang Hua and Sister Qian are here, there is no chance for you to be presumptuous today!"
"Humph, I won't cry until I see the coffin!"
He stepped forward and kicked the opponent, but unexpectedly, Yang Xiaoxiao raised a knife in mid-air to fight back. Unexpectedly, his shirt was cut open by the knife. The knife wound started from the navel to the chest, and almost touched the throat. In an instant, dripping blood spurted out, immediately staining a long and narrow blood stain.
"Ah!" "Bitch girl!"
Her last dagger, the wolf fang, was also knocked away. Yang Xiaoxiao wanted to fight back, but she was exhausted and her fists and feet were weak. Instead, Zhou Jin pinched her neck with one hand and stabbed the hook directly into Yang Xiaoxiao's belly with the other hand!
"ah--"
Yang Xiaoxiao cried out in pain, and her body convulsed. Zhou Jin's hooked hand pulled hard, and he cut his belly and pulled out some red and white small intestines. Blood quickly poured out, staining the ground under her feet red.
At this time, Yang Xiaoxiao was taking in more air than out. The large amount of blood loss and the wounds on her abdomen made her feel cold all over. She was shivering and her consciousness gradually blurred. The only thing she still remembered was reaching out to hit the enemy in front of her.
Zhou Jin looked at her as if he were looking at a dying rabbit. Watching the enemy's vitality drain away little by little was a great enjoyment for Zhou Jin who was disabled. But at a certain moment, Yang Xiaoxiao suddenly felt a different kind of fluctuation.
"Huh? Are you going to be promoted?" Zhou Jin narrowed his eyes, and then smiled, "I will kill you here today, and let you go to the underworld to advance, to be with your mother and that damn brother of yours Let’s have a reunion!”
But Yang Xiaoxiao couldn't hear it at all at this time. Her world seemed to have fallen into white mist again, and the surroundings were hazy and there was no end. A tiny trace of third-order crystal energy suddenly emerged from various points on the body. They were like flickering candles, lighting up the life of this small area.
Zhou Jin sneered and raised his hook hand, about to give Yang Xiaoxiao a fatal blow.
Suddenly, a bark sounded in the square. As the strong wind blew behind him, Zhou Jin turned around and looked back, only to see the little wolf coming back and biting his leg hard.
"Beast, you are looking for death!"
He waved and threw Yang Xiaoxiao away, as if he was throwing away an old sack. The next moment he will kill the wolf first, and then extinguish all Yang Xiaoxiao's vitality!
But unexpectedly, a new person appeared that completely stunned him.
"Lang Hua!" He watched Lang Hua suddenly rush out, catch Yang Xiaoxiao steadily, slowly put it on the ground, and blurted out the words in his heart, "Why are you here?"
"Zhou Jin, I swear to kill you!"
Zhou Jin, who hurriedly threw away the little wolf, quickly retreated, but was caught up by Lang Hua in an instant. He raised his left robot arm to resist Lang Hua, but was cut off by Miao's knife. A hook hand stabbed Lang Hua in the chest. The latter did not avoid it and took the blow. At the same time, he stabbed a dagger into his chest!
"Lang Hua, you are crazy!"
"I told you, you will die today!"
"Mingguang Armor! Light Chain Strangulation!"
Zhou Jin hurriedly summoned his defense skills, and then controlled the light energy to turn into a chain of teeth, attacking and surrounding Lang Hua.
At this time, the sunlight was strong, and Zhou Jin's ability "Beam" became more powerful. Six three-meter-long sharp tooth chains swung rapidly, colliding with the Xue Xiao Miao and the knife, forcing Lang Hua to take three steps back.
Later, the light chain tried to strangle Lang Hua, but he chopped it into pieces with his cold sword. Behind the flying golden debris was Lang Hua's angry eyes, and in front was Zhou Jin's panicked expression.
"Fourth level! When did you advance to the fourth level!"
"Go down to the underworld and ask!" "Empty Blade Slash!"
The blade cut through the air and whistled rapidly, a red light suddenly appeared at the blade, and a waning moon swung through the air.
"嚓——"
Immediately, Zhou Jin was cut off at the waist. Even his hook hand was not spared and was chopped into two pieces. The lower half with the hook fell to the ground with a "ding-dong" sound, which seemed to resound in Zhou Jin's heart.
"Ah -" he screamed belatedly, lying on the ground looking in horror at his still standing lower body, which was already in disarray.
"Humph, what a waste."
"Who is it!" Lang Hua shouted, secretly releasing the field induction.
It would have been nice not to have seen it, but upon looking at it, I discovered that there were many special creatures lurking around the square, including not only close combat types such as gorillas, ghost monkeys, and shields, but also long-range attack types such as spitting and poisonous stings.
In addition to these black corpses, there is also a group of evolvers moving here quickly. Before these black corpses could sneak up on Lang Hua, they started fighting with these guys.
The two leaders who rushed through the enemy formation turned out to be Lan Xi and Chen Xinyan. The former picked up Yang Xiaoxiao and was so anxious that his heart was in confusion, while the latter took out the medical kit and shouted at Lang Hua.
"Xiaohua, come back quickly! Xiaoxiao is dying..."
At this time, Lang Hua was exchanging blows with the mysterious man who suddenly appeared. Eager to save Yang Xiaoxiao, she had to turn back and retreat, watching helplessly as the man took away the dying Zhou Jin.
"Sister Xinyan, how is Xiaoxiao?"
"It's a big sigh of relief. Didn't you have a replica? Aunt Ping is not here, so you have to use Bingqinglian to stabilize her injury first..."
"Okay, okay. Let's go back quickly and you operate on her. Sister Xinyan, you must save her..."
"Xiaoxiao, hold on, you must hold on..."
However, Yang Xiaoxiao's lips were pale at this time, there was no trace of blood on his face, and he could no longer hear the conversation between several people.
After all, Yang Xiaoxiao has already crossed the threshold of death with one foot. Although she was lucky enough to activate an advanced stress response when she was near death, the crystal energy flames that appeared from all over her body, combined with nerve excitement and increased hormone secretion, maintained her heartbeat and breathing.
But after all, she had been fighting for a day and a night, and she was seriously injured at this time. She did not have enough spore crystal energy to break through immediately. These crystal energy, which is like medicine, has nowhere to go, so it spontaneously draws the free spore energy from the outside world to first treat Yang Xiaoxiao's body.
If she could overcome this hurdle, she would be able to become a mid-level third-level ability user. Otherwise, it would be like death and all the past would turn into ashes.
According to Chen Xinyan's words - the damage to this body is really serious to a certain extent. If Yang Xiaoxiao was not a third-level ability user with a strong physique, he would have been dead for a long time now.
After leaving a team of people to clean the battlefield, Lang and Chen first led the people back to Fengwei Mountain, and met halfway with the second and third battalions of the city defense army who came for reinforcements.
The injured little wolf was held in Lang Hua's arms, and Lang Hua didn't speak a word along the way.
He had already learned from Lan Xi that the mysterious force that ambushed the reinforcements of Langya City was defeated by the city defense army and fled to the north. There was an obvious Ouroboros tattoo on the enemy's corpses.
And if he hadn't been led by Xiaolang, he wouldn't have been able to find Yang Xiaoxiao in the fog so quickly.
"Black Blood Altar, you and I are incompatible..."
