His clothes were torn, blood was flowing from his wounds, his face was pale, and one of his shoulders had been pierced by armor-like mouthparts. His whole body seemed to be in a state of extreme exhaustion.
Suddenly, a tentacle slashed past the monster in front of him and, taking advantage of his inattention, headed towards his chest.
"Pfft..." The next moment, blood gushed out...
PS: LPL is trash, what a waste of my time QAQ Damn it, they lost again. I knew I shouldn't have watched it, so disheartening.
Chapter 162: A Kiss in a Hurry
A figure in a fiery red dress came into his view. Looking at the half-naked back hidden beneath the white hair, Wang Quantianxia's heart calmed down a little.
Although she saved him, at least he didn't die, which is the best ending.
"Miss Xiuyu, could you please repair the barrier? As long as there is enough energy, it will stabilize for a while and then the barrier will recover its self-replenishment function, and then you can let go."
If Ji Xiuyu hadn't intervened and driven away those demons, he would probably have faced death the next moment, with sharp tentacles piercing his chest.
"Wait a moment." It wasn't that she was unwilling to help, but at this moment, she wanted to stall for a while.
In front of so many people, Wang Quantian called her "Miss Xiuyu" instead of "Miss Ji" or "Xiuyu," which made her appear neither too close nor too distant.
Clearly, he didn't want people to think he was too close to her and cause any harm to Liu Qingli, but because of her status and strength, he couldn't distance himself from her, so he addressed her that way.
Even the way you address people is so particular. You're so powerful and all-powerful. What are you really thinking?
Lost in thought, she turned her head to look at him, then casually swung her hand, sending several spiritual blades flying and slicing the bodies of the demons to pieces.
Her stalling for time doesn't mean she wants everyone dead, so she will definitely make her move if she has the chance.
"Aren't you curious?" She looked at him, wanting to know what he was thinking.
"Why be curious? Miss Xiuyu seems to be from the Chu family. The Chu family is so mysterious; we have no idea how many secrets they hold. Curiosity about things we don't understand will only make us sink deeper. If we can find out, we will naturally find out later. If we can't find out, do you think it's appropriate to have too many thoughts in our minds on the battlefield?"
Clutching his chest and bracing himself against his sword, he looked at her profile. Her lips were painted red, and her face was as beautiful as jade. She was truly a peerless beauty, but what did that have to do with him?
"Perhaps." He turned his head, his body hovering a short distance upwards, taking in most of the city wall.
Humans are truly strange creatures; the history of that world is a history of war and ethnic integration.
This side, however, is a history of resistance and survival. All races struggle to survive under the attacks of monsters, and every time a scourge erupts, a hero appears. It's like a pre-prepared script that never changes.
The idea of one side finishing its act and another taking the stage has never happened. Since the beginning of recorded history, humans and other races have been invaded, and monsters have been their enemies.
Demonic beasts, insectoids, bio-engineered monsters, and mutated monsters are collectively known as demons. But where do demons come from? Do they live in the demon realm like demons, or are they born with it?
No book mentions this point, as if humans are their natural enemy.
There are no historical records of any romantic relationships between humans and demons. However, there are many examples of demons forcibly abducting women from various races, or humans using beautiful demon women as slaves.
Why is this happening? Why...why is this happening?
She would never have thought of this before, but after traveling through that world, especially through various excellent novels and literary works, it was extremely helpful in broadening her horizons.
She wouldn't forget the worldview in "Infinite Terror" that Chu Yan had shown her. Could it be that her own world was also some kind of strange world?
Once this thought took hold, it spread uncontrollably, causing her to question everything.
Unfortunately, she also knew that the epic might have played an incredibly important role in the entire war, even influencing the course of the world.
But in the end, they were just human beings, completely unable to fight against those demigods at that time, and unable to find out the truth.
If I become a demigod, no, a god, I'll surely know even more things, right?
The situation on the battlefield was imprinted in her eyes without any detail, which made her more determined to do certain things.
The royal family can survive, but... chaos must ensue. They must be forced to focus solely on resisting external forces, preventing them from considering internal matters. Otherwise, they will face collapse and defeat.
Only in this way can we achieve the best outcome and leave with peace of mind.
"Miss Xiuyu? Miss Xiuyu?" Seeing her hovering there, only looking around without making any move, Wang Quan Tianxia became a little anxious. Although she had dealt with the monsters that wanted to kill the soldiers, she certainly couldn't keep doing this for long.
If he makes a mistake, the whole operation will collapse. Now is the most critical moment to repair the energy shield, and he doesn't want to delay any longer.
"Hmm." Ji Xiuyu thought for a moment and realized that she had found a way to deal with the Wangquan family, so there was no need to delay any longer.
Moreover, the fact that the world was begging her for help subtly increased her importance, making her much safer afterward.
"Hmm..." Landing on the ground, he pressed one hand on the floor, and a mysterious magic circle expanded from small to large, stopping after reaching a diameter of ten meters. Then, countless energies surged out like a flood, automatically heading towards the flickering energy shield, repairing its gaps.
The surge of energy created a gust of wind that made her skirt and long hair flutter, making it difficult for Wang Quan Tianxia, who was closest to her, to open his eyes.
"Wow..." As the tension subsided, the injuries to his body made it impossible to continue. His knees buckled, and he couldn't help but kneel down on one knee.
If he hadn't been supporting himself on the ground with one hand and the sword with the other, he probably would have collapsed there.
"Really, why don't they protect themselves?" Countless mysterious runes floated around the magic circle, shining with golden light. Any demons that tried to get close were easily purified, and there was no way to destroy these things.
Even ranged attacks are like this; it seems to be the most powerful weapon, destroying all the monsters' attacks bit by bit.
Seemingly noticing this, some members of the royal family began to gather to protect the magic circle, waiting for it to repair the shield and prevent the increasingly frenzied demons from getting close.
Ji Xiuyu floated out from inside and saw Wang Quan Tianxia kneeling there, seemingly in great pain. She couldn't help but bend down and reach out to lift his head.
"Miss Xiuyu, please have some self-respect." The touch of her fingers and the fragrance emanating from her body so close to his eyes made him hesitant to look directly at her face. He could only lower his gaze, but unexpectedly, he saw another kind of beautiful sight.
He wasn't a foot fetishist or a leg fetishist, but after seeing Ji Xiuyu's beautiful legs, he inexplicably found them very attractive, and his heart couldn't help but flutter slightly.
As if sensing his thoughts, Ji Xiuyu blushed slightly, but did not let go of him. Instead, she looked at his injuries and frowned, saying, "This will cause you a lot of trouble."
"No need, I'm perfectly healthy." He was capable, but he was more inclined towards a scholarly approach. Weapons were merely for self-protection; he wasn't concerned with how many he could kill.
Even so, though he was injured and didn't speak, you could still see that he was, at heart, an extremely resilient man.
"Do you dislike me that much?" She frowned, looking at him, wanting to know his thoughts.
"Qingli is already in my heart. If it weren't for this accident, I would never have let her down." He didn't speak so definitively. Perhaps he himself knew that many accidents were unavoidable, such as Ji Xiuyu's arrival and his engagement to her.
All he could do was stay true to himself and not let himself take the initiative to accept a young girl.
"Yes, it was an accident." She gave a wry smile, shook her head, and reached out. Pale blue spiritual energy surged and landed on Wang Quan Tianxia, restoring his body.
Feeling her injuries beginning to heal and her depleted energy and strength returning, Wang Quan Tianxia was secretly amazed by her incredible abilities, truly befitting an epic powerhouse.
He then looked up at her, about to thank her, when he seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye. Suddenly, he rushed over, tackled the unsuspecting Ji Xiuyu to the ground, and rolled away with her.
A loud explosion and a gust of wind sent Ji Xiuyu and Wang Quantianxia flying.
Held in his arms, Ji Xiuyu felt somewhat helpless. This guy was truly a terrible teammate. Although she had been caught off guard and ambushed, how was she supposed to fight back when he did this?
Before she could speak, a series of energy blasts came hurtling towards them, sending them flying even further away.
Holding the girl tightly in his arms, Wang Quan Tianxia completely forgot that she was an epic-level powerhouse and only felt that he should protect her.
In a series of continuous explosions, an unstoppable force caused his arms to spread out, separating him from the girl's body, and he fell to an unknown location.
Amidst the hazy smoke, explosions erupted around him; several times, if he hadn't dodged in time, he would have been blasted to smithereens.
In this environment, a figure suddenly rushed over. With his vision obstructed, he couldn't see who it was before the person knocked him down.
Then, he felt as if his lips were being kissed by another pair of lips.
Looking into those bright eyes, his breathing quickened. This was bad...
Meanwhile, Bai Yu Ziqing and her group, who were searching for Ji Xiuyu, encountered a riot of monsters on their way and were trapped on a mountain, not knowing how long it would take to get out.
We're less than a thousand miles from Wangquan City now; we'll be able to get there in a while.
However, these rioting monsters were not so easy to deal with. In addition, Alicia had to conserve her energy, so she didn't take action often and left it all to the backers, which naturally slowed things down a lot.
The night was dark, and the moon had a slight reddish tinge, as if it were foreshadowing something.
Alicia looked at the full moon and grew increasingly anxious. She estimated that the curse concerning the Chu family would appear soon, and if she couldn't rescue Xiuyu in time, she would be in trouble.
The battle continues, neither here nor there, it has never ended...
PS1: Okay, belated update.
PS2: The thing I want to do most during holidays is to kill all the naughty kids (smile).
PS3: Should we change the cover? Should we go for the women's version, Luna, or a beautiful illustration? _(:з」∠)_
PS4: I'm recommending a book called "The Class President in the Game is Super Dominant." Those who like harem stories shouldn't miss it. It's a web novel about a childhood friend and a girl who suddenly appears—a tragic love triangle! Those interested can check it out (I'm getting paid to recommend a book (with a condom in my mouth)).jpg
Chapter 163: Is the truth really that important?
"Should I call it your twisted sense of humor, or your scheming?" The girl sat on a high platform, her figure unseen by anyone amidst the thick smoke and dust.
Nine tails wagged playfully, and a pair of eyes were fixed on the two men kissing, their expressions unreadable. Something felt... strange?
"I'm just transforming their perception of each other into my own image, adding a touch of realism. I'll create an accident later to separate them. That way, no one will know whether it's real or fake." Xiu Mei's legs were swinging, her tone devoid of emotion, but Cang Hua felt something was off. Was this really her?
"Aren't you afraid of being discovered later? You know there are a lot of flaws." Perhaps because it was the first time he couldn't see Ji Xiuyu clearly, Canghua wanted to know her thoughts.
"No need. I'll leave afterward. I'm doing this simply to keep the people in the Wangquan family who are worth keeping, so that when they're fighting for 'me,' their extra energy will be used to deal with monsters, and they won't be able to spare any energy to go elsewhere. By then, I should have already returned home and been living with Qianse and the others. Whatever happens after that is none of my concern."
Ji Xiuyu wasn't very clever; this was the only method she could think of. After all, Wang Quan Tianxia was her nominal "fiancé," while Wang Quan Tianque had designs on her.
It doesn't matter how Wang Quantianxia treats her at that time. As long as this relationship exists, he will be her shield, and everyone who has designs on her will have to get past him.
Even if the king and the world dislike her, they cannot stand by and watch another man take her away. Is this a man's dignity? Perhaps.
“I have a better way to make them feel like they’re in heaven, and even let you control the entire kingdom. Do you want to give it a try?” In Canghua’s opinion, Ji Xiuyu’s plan had a pretty high success rate, but there were many loopholes and errors.
If she wanted to do that, she had better ways. The Wang family's scheming and power-grabbing tactics were unmatched, even by the highest authority.
Therefore, she was confident that she could easily train Ji Xiuyu into a stunningly beautiful and infamous femme fatale who could bring ruin to the entire royal family.
"No, even the most meticulous plans have flaws. A flawed plan, once implemented, doesn't matter if problems arise; they'll fill those flaws themselves. Humans are very suspicious, you know, didn't you tell me that?" She shook her head; she didn't want to do it.
"It seems that after all this, you yearn for your previous life even more?" Although Canghua had only been awake for a short time, he was very familiar with Ji Xiuyu's past experiences.
"Well, actually I haven't changed at all. Whether in Orianna or Starrett, all I wanted was to do my job well and then go back to live a good life. Whether it was liking someone or other things, they were all just accidents. I didn't want these accidents to happen."
Ji Xiuyu's tone was somewhat low as she casually flicked out a few energy blasts, creating more smoke and dust that engulfed the two men who were lost in their passionate kiss. She didn't want to see, nor did she want anyone else to know.
"So, people really need to experience a failed love affair to grow?" Shrugging, Cang Hua understood her thoughts somewhat.
"You can't say that. Ishikawa Yuya and I have known each other for several years. It's just that he doesn't remember me, but I still remember him. I originally thought it was just an accident and that we would never meet again. But unexpectedly, in Starret City, he saved me once at the beginning. When I was drugged, he saved me again... That's why I got so deeply involved. But once it's over, it's over. I've seen through Ishikawa Yuya, and I've seen through men too."
At this point, she shook her head, her tone somewhat strange: "In that world, I lived among them as a woman, and I learned so many things. It turns out that girls are not simply girls. Whether they like men or women, it's only because that person is someone they like, and nothing else."
"Oh, this isn't fun anymore." Muttering to himself, Cang Hua was somewhat pleased with her growth, but more so worried about this change in her. "I wonder if you truly see your future path, or... have you already given up?"
"Yes, I've decided. When I get back, I'm going to have Qianse and the others come and live with me. That way, with them watching over me, I won't have any other thoughts. Also, I want to try out what it feels like to like a girl." If her previous words had surprised Canghua, these words now filled her with panic.
