Nine Star Burden - Chapter 453
Chapter 453: Jiang Xiaowu
The fifth day of the new year.
While the ordinary people were celebrating the New Year at home, visiting relatives, and playing mahjong, Jiang Xiao and second last had already embarked on their journey to the snowfield.
Beijing Star Warriors University would start school on the 17th of February, and Jiang Xiao would be spending about two weeks in the snowfield.
Two weeks was neither too long nor too short for others.
However, it would be an extremely painful two weeks for Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao had recalled the experience of killing in the snowfield holy ground more than once and was rather certain that he would be in the same state this time.
He continued to swing his blade and kill.
When living beings were no longer treated as living beings, when fighting had become a mechanical slaughter, when one’s heart and eyes were filled with numbness, it would be difficult to judge whether this was the correct training method.
The guardians of the night outside the holy ground didn’t express much about second last and Jiang Xiao’s return, as they were rather familiar with them.
The guardians of the night were especially in awe of Jiang Xiao. They still remembered the last time when Jiang Xiao was brought back to his tent to rest for a while before he wielded his sword and charged out again.
…
The guardians of the night would not question the training methods of the light-chasing boss, and they had their own judgment of the situation.
Obviously, the White ghouls and white Ghoul witches wouldn’t cause any trouble for the apprentice, but they didn’t think that Jiang Xiao was bullying the weak. They thought that it was a form of training for his character and will.
The guardians of the night around the holy ground were also very clear that although this child was said to be an apprentice of the night, he should have been a lighchaser after he finished his apprenticeship. After all, the night watchmen did not have such strict standards.
Perhaps, after this child finished his apprenticeship, he would receive a secret mission of an even higher level.
Jiang Xiao didn’t care about what others thought or speculated. There was nothing wrong with his identity and there was nothing wrong with him coming here to train.
At this moment, he was holding a giant blade and stepping on the Halo of nostalgia as he slaughtered the White ghouls.
The chaotic and noisy battlefield was also a way for him to train his skills.
As for why Jiang Xiao had to step on nostalgia, it was because …
All of a sudden, five counter-current light rays shot out of Jiang Xiao’s body!
The five rays of counter-current light were like five tails, connected to the five nearest white ghouls.
The White ghouls were all of the brass quality. Perhaps it would be difficult for Jiang Xiao to make the silver quality creatures advance to the gold quality, but with Jiang Xiao’s current total star power of “half-step Galaxy”, it would be very easy for the brass quality creatures to advance.
The star power in Jiang Xiao’s body decreased rapidly, but as he slashed with his sword, the star power rose again! He did not have to worry as he was sharing his life with the other five white ghouls.
Platinum nostalgia and Platinum dawn were really a great improvement for Jiang Xiao.
Second last became the controller of the scene. Under normal circumstances, she wouldn’t make a move and would immediately stop the White ghouls that had leveled up once they tried to run out of the holy ground.
Due to the characteristics of the White ghouls, this situation rarely occurred.
Usually, she would just stand behind Jiang Xiao and watch him fight quietly in the corner of the holy ground.
Her eyes were cold and sharp, and in the beginning, her gaze made Jiang Xiao feel uncomfortable.
As the battle progressed, Jiang Xiao had already gotten used to her gaze.
She was like the devil behind the scenes, watching Jiang Xiao become more and more silent every day.
Looking at his body covered in sinful blood,
She watched as he became more and more cruel and numb.
She was also watching this warrior step into the abyss.
Jiang Xiao stood guard at a corner of the holy ground and slaughtered five silver-quality white ghouls while looking for the White Ghoul witches that were swarming towards them.
He discovered that the White Ghoul witch was temporarily far away from him, so he immediately opened the ruins of calamity. All of a sudden, a group of white ghouls swarmed into the ruins of calamity and Jiang Xiao immediately closed the door.
In the ruins of calamity, the 28 gold rank creatures also had a source of food.
No, to be exact, there were 26 of them. Before Jiang Xiao and second last knew it, two Savage witches had already died in the ruins of disaster.
The savage sorceress’s physical fitness was still slightly inferior to the lava Ghoul witch ‘s. Two of them had met with mishaps in the crowded space of 100 square meters.
In the past three days, Xiaoxiao had also experienced a major setback in its “horse life.” In the end, the ruins of calamity and shadow was still too small. As the God in charge of this place, Xiaoxiao had also failed to take care of it well.
Jiang Xiao, who was outside, was fighting all the time, and Xiaoxiao, who was inside, was no better. It could clear the entire ruins of calamity and shadow in an instant.
However, it couldn’t do that. It had accepted its master’s order, so it could only be patient and constantly adjust and balance the three forces.
The sudden influx of more than a dozen white ghouls caused the three parties in the ruins of calamity to pause for a moment. Then, they reached a temporary truce, which was very rare, and rushed towards the brass-level white ghouls.
Xiaoxiao had not eaten for a few days. It raised its hooves and crushed the chest of a white Ghoul. Then, it held the White Ghoul in its mouth and returned to its corner to eat quietly.
Jiang Xiao and second last had not entered the ruins of calamity for three days and did not know what was going on inside for the time being. However, when second last entered it again, Xiaoxiao would probably have a lot to explain to her.
Well, if it could talk.
In the snowfield holy ground, Jiang Xiao played with the giant sword like a close-fitting dagger. Every slash, every slight turn of the wrist, a slight turn of the body, and a small step seemed to be a teaching action.
Second last was mesmerized by the silent yet perfect scene.
Yes, Jiang Xiao had misunderstood her.
She might have the intention of supervising, but more than that, she was enjoying it.
This was a visual feast, especially for a pure soldier like her. Such skills were a capital for survival.
Sometimes, she even thought that she should ask Jiang Xiao for advice on the technique of the giant sword.
Second last had a high combat IQ and was extremely athletic. She also had a good understanding of cold weapons.
But to be honest, from the two skills she had learned so far, her attainments in the bow and arrow were much higher than that of the spear.
Second last knew her limits and said,
She knew that she had only made up for her weakness in spear techniques with her explosive physical attributes and powerful star techniques. Perhaps she was not suitable for using a spear, but perhaps a giant blade would be a good choice.
The giant blade was long, heavy, and heavy enough.
Jiang Xiao had now entered a new height, but before that, the giant sword was bold and courageous.
It was suitable for infantry and also for generals on horses.
Second last’s eyes flickered slightly and she crossed her arms in front of her chest while leaning against the wall of the small hill in the holy ground. She then made a decision in her heart.
Jiang Xiao wasn’t fighting alone either. Apart from second last, there was another him who was in the upper dimension of the snowfield.
This ‘he’ should be called ‘it’.
In the mysterious upper dimension of the snowfield, a tall white Ghoul witch was walking in a quiet snow forest.
The 184-cm white Ghoul witch could be considered tall, but it looked like an elementary school student here.
Let’s temporarily call it … Jiang Xiaowu.
The White Ghoul witch that Jiang Xiao had transformed into suddenly stopped and yelled at the broken trees in the distance,””
Dozens of meters away, a huge white Ghoul glared with Scarlet eyes and disgusting saliva flowed from its mouth. One of its giant hands was holding a broken tree trunk, constantly crushing it into pieces.
Obviously, the White Ghoul was struggling and hesitating!
Jiang Xiaowu opened her mouth again and put on a fierce look.”Ah!”
I …
Jiang xiaoyu said,
Super fierce!
The White Ghoul shrunk its neck slightly. When a giant beast that was more than three meters tall and the size of a small mountain made such a timid move, it gave people an extremely contradictory feeling.
The White ghost finally turned around and ran away.
Jiang Xiaowu heaved a sigh of relief as she knew that she would not be able to outrun a white Ghoul of this level.
When they first entered this place, Jiang Xiaowu had made a mistake. She tried to avoid the White ghouls ‘line of sight and their route.
However, things did not go according to plan. The more it dodged, the more courageous the White ghouls became. In the end, it was ruthlessly torn apart by the White ghouls and turned into specks of Starlight that disappeared with the wind.
Now, Jiang Xiaowu had found the trick to survival. Even if she was a brass quality white Ghoul witch, she could still scare off gold quality white ghouls with her body!
However, he had to be careful not to encounter any white Ghoul witches from the upper dimension.
If Li Gui really touched Li Kui, he would be torn to pieces.
With the protection of the body, Jiang Xiaowu could finally start her investigation.
It was a pity that Jiang Xiaowu had been traveling in the upper dimension for a long time, heading west, but she still hadn’t found any traces of her ancestors.
The environment here was better than the lower dimension’s snowfield. Snow and strong winds were rare, and compared to the dark lower dimension’s snowfield, the snowfield here was dusk.
Jiang Xiaowu could see the faint orange-red color in the sky.
It might as well treat that as the direction of the setting sun, hmm … Even though there did not seem to be any alternation of day and night here.
Just like this,
Jiang Xiaowu followed the orange-red Sky and said,
Step by step, he staggered through the snowy plains, leaving behind deep and shallow footprints.
Slowly, it walked out of the endless snow forest and stood on the cliff.
Jiang Xiaowu held onto the tree with one of her claws. She raised her head slightly and looked at the beautiful burning clouds in the sky.
This road to the West …
He didn’t know when it would end.
Jiang Xiaowu sighed softly and used her sharp claws to carve the word ‘night’ on the tree.
Jiang Xiaowu left behind these squarish words and continued on her way. However, she discovered that a group of creatures had emerged from the snow forest and were looking up at her from the distant cliff.
Jiang Xiaowu swallowed her saliva and saw a skinny and tall creature in the small tribe.”White Ghoul witch!
