Collapse, Kaslana's Way of Survival

Hey, I lost--

Not only will you lose, you will also die.

In terms of determination, I can't kill people mercilessly, and in terms of strength, I can't avenge the slap in the face. I am just like Qi Yier, right? Si Ba is really weak.

I'm sorry, Master.

I'm sorry, mom.

I--

"Live..."

Suddenly, a voice sounded from somewhere in the lake of my heart, rippling slightly within it.

It was a woman's voice.

When Li Suchang heard this voice, she was speechless.

"…For me."

This is, mom?

"You have to live, Su Shang, you have to live well...promise me."

Ah, but mother, Su Shang, I am going to die. Even if I want to live...

"promise me!"

The next moment, the originally dust-free heart lake suddenly turned into a bright mirror.

The third realm of Taixu’s mind is the realm of a bright mirror.

Li Suchang suddenly opened her eyes.

"Live..."

Li Sushang muttered to herself, then her eyes suddenly became firm. The zhenqi that had been unable to be absorbed and circulated by the Jieqi Powder suddenly surged in from the outside world, flowing into her limbs and bones.

Almost instinctively, Li Suchang stepped lightly on the ground and turned. The original inertia of retreat suddenly turned into thrust at this moment. He drew his sword? In an instant, Chen Fuling's mind came to him, and Li Suchang suddenly rushed towards the eagle at a speed that he could not imagine.

The Xuanyuan ancient sword is not short. If it attacks the eagle directly, Li Suchang will definitely be the first to die.

So Li Suchang’s target from the beginning was not the eagle, but the ancient sword Xuanyuan in the eagle’s hand.

The moment the two met, Li Sushang stretched out her hand towards the ancient sword Xuanyuan to intercept the blade. Then, she snapped her fingers.

With the sound of fingers and swords clashing, the ancient sword Xuanyuan suddenly slipped out of Eagle's hand and flew into the sky.

The eagle was extremely angry. The hand that was originally holding the sword turned into a palm and slammed Li Suchang hard. Then it landed and flew towards Xuanyuan.

Li Suchang was knocked away by this palm and spat out a mouthful of blood, but this did not affect Li Suchang's movements at all.

Li Sushang jumped up from the ground, circulated his true energy, and also flew towards Xuanyuan.

Li Suchang, the inheritor of Taixu Sword Qi, and Eagle, the leader of the Jinsha Gang of robbers, had a common understanding at this moment.

Ancient sword? Xuanyuan, whoever obtains it lives, whoever loses it dies.

Li Suchang and the eagle were getting closer and closer to the ancient sword Xuanyuan.

There was nothing else in Li Sushang's eyes except the ancient sword Xuanyuan.

You will help me, right?

After all, you are my sword...

With such hope, the light in Li Sushang's eyes grew brighter and brighter. And then...

Watching a hand grasp the hilt of the sword.

Li Suchang was stunned and looked at the owner of the hand.

The familiar, cruel and ferocious smile appeared on Eagle's face again.

A feeling of despair surged into Li Suchang's heart.

The feeling of losing hope is not pleasant, and even a sharp swordsman cannot ignore it. After struggling, facing death again is something no one wants to accept.

...Yes, I don’t want to accept it.

...to survive.

Yes, I have to survive.

Su Shang, live!

I have to kill the other person and then survive!

Staring intently at the eagle, Li Sushang immediately activated his Taixu sword energy. He stretched out his right hand, imitating a sword with his hand, and swung it at the eagle with all his strength.

As long as he could kill the opponent first, then the unmanned ancient sword Xuanyuan would not be able to kill him directly. And he would have a little more chance of survival.

Li Suchang didn't know whether this glimmer of hope could bring her true survival, but she had already tried her best.

Life and death are just a matter of moments!

But the next moment, Li Suchang's eyes widened.

————

So he is indeed a fool.

But Taixu sword energy...is indeed outrageous.

Kaino finished his second bowl of noodles while watching the two people's competition, then put down the bowl and clapped his hands.

Although the competition between the two was not very aesthetically pleasing, the twists and turns in the competition were really enjoyable to watch.

...maybe it's not that delicious. Several times, Keno stopped and was about to intervene, but in the end the danger was resolved by Li Suchang alone.

When Li Suchang broke through on the spot and used the Taixu sword energy to rush towards the Xuanyuan Sword and bounce it away, Kainuo, who was watching from the side, thought that Li Suchang was going to win.

Although he intended to help, Kainuo would not deliberately give Li Sushang a hard time. If he did, he would be too embarrassed to face his family even if he could finally return home.

After all, Li Sushang was still relatively kind to him, and the two of them had a friendship that stemmed from their time in prison together—helping someone in need was still helping, though not entirely devoted at best. But he could use his braids, and if anyone knew he was a Kaslana, he'd be embarrassed to call himself one.

But in the end, it was the eagle that got the sword.

Alas, swords are indeed merciless.

Thinking of this, Kainuo stretched out his right hand towards the two people, and then a gold and red pistol appeared in Kainuo's hand.

Then, Keno pulled the trigger.

A fiery red light flashed by, directly hitting Eagle's sword-holding arm, and then hit the ground.

The eagle's broken arms and hands were burnt before they could bleed, and before he felt any pain, Li Suchang's hand knife had already slashed his face fiercely.

Then Eagle, Li Sushang and Xuanyuan landed together.

Eagle was breathing in more than out. Skyfire's attack on his arm wasn't fatal, especially since Kainuo had limited Skyfire's power. But Li Suchang's attack, laced with true Qi, was a truly fatal blow.

Li Sushang wasn't in much better shape. The Xuanyuan Sword was indeed an extremely sharp weapon, but even a slight slash from its inertia had left a massive gash on her body. While it wouldn't kill her instantly, it was untreatable in this day and age.

Li Suchang lay weakly on the ground, grimacing in pain, but then she burst out laughing.

She also remembered that she actually had an ally.

"So, if it weren't for me, you would probably be stuck here today. Why don't you consider giving me some benefits later?"

Kainuo jumped down from the roof and casually swung a wind blade to finish off Eagle, whose eyes were already beginning to blur but who was staring at him with an unwilling look on his face.

"Hey hey...you helped me?"

Li Suchang slowly turned her head to look at Kainuo and grinned.

"Still talking, don't you feel any pain?"

Kainuo sighed, walked to Li Suchang and squatted down, then stretched out his hand and put it on Li Suchang's head.

"Eh? Rakshasa? What are you doing?"

Li Suchang shuddered and looked at Kainuo nervously.

"I told you to stop talking. Also, I remember I said my name is Kaino."

The Herrscher of Death's life force was released in Kainuo's hands, and then the wounds on Li Suchang's body began to recover at a completely unscientific speed.

This time, Li Suchang was obedient. She did not ask any questions about the speed of Qiyi's recovery from the wound. Instead, she kept her mouth shut and looked at Kainuo quietly.

An indescribable emotion entangled Li Suchang's heart, and then her thoughts gradually drifted away.

"I just made several bowls of noodles, you want to eat..."

Kainuo had just said half of his words when he saw Li Suchang staring at him in a daze. He immediately turned his head away, blushed, and coughed softly.

"Um, well, do you have spare clothes?"

Hearing Kainuo's voice, Li Suchang came back to her senses from Kainuo and subconsciously looked at her own body.

"Eh eh eh?!"

Chapter 15 Departure

In the kitchen of the Jinsha Gang, Li Suchang was eating the noodles on the table frantically with a rosy face. She had changed into new clothes that were exactly the same as her old ones.

It was constructed by Keno.

"There's still some in the pot, no need to eat so quickly." Kainuo, who was sitting opposite Li Suchang, glanced at the three bowls of noodles placed next to the other person and swallowed silently.

Apart from Kaslana, this was the first time he had seen a woman eat so much.

Although apart from Kaslana, he had only seen a few women eating.

"Mmmmmmm!"

A strange sound came out of Li Suchang's mouth, and then she quickly put down the bowl of noodles in her hand and patted her chest several times.

"Phew! No, no, I'm full."

Her face was still a little red, and Li Suchang's eyes darted around, not looking directly at Kainuo.

"Ahem, well, your craftsmanship isn't very good. It's far worse than what my master does."

"If possible, I'd rather you compare yourself to someone else. And you said it tasted bad..."

Having said that, Kainuo raised his eyebrows and pointed at the bowl next to Li Suchang.

"Didn't you still eat that much?"

"I don't know how to cook, and I've been hungry for almost a day."

Li Suchang scratched her cheek with her fingers embarrassedly and smiled awkwardly.

"But speaking of which, what method did you use to treat me? It was like a magical technique—ah, if it's a secret of your sect, just pretend I didn't say anything."

"It's not really a secret, but it's a bit long to explain." Kainuo thought for a moment and pointed to the door. "If you want to know, I'll explain it to you later, but shouldn't we go now?"

"I don't know if the Jinsha Gang has a rule about night shifts. But if they do, it might be a bit troublesome when the replacement arrives and discovers those bodies."

"Oh oh oh, okay."

Li Suchang nodded, then suddenly looked at Kainuo and spoke hesitantly.

"Well, thank you."

"Ok?"

"That's right, that's right. You helped me before, otherwise I would have died long ago." Li Suchang said this and shook her head. "But hey, I'm telling you, don't do this again in the future."

"In Shenzhou, when two people are fighting, no one else can interfere. Otherwise, they will say you are an evil heretic, unethical, and will attack you in droves."

Kainuo felt helpless. He wanted to reason with the other party, but just as he was about to speak, he changed his mind.

So Kaino raised his eyebrows and said with a slight smirk:

"how about you?"

"Eh?"

Li Sushang was stunned.

"I say, do you think I'm a heretic? Or do you think I don't follow the moral code of the martial arts world?"

"Ah this."

Li Suchang obviously didn't expect Kainuo to ask this, and was stunned for a moment.
