Nine Star Burden - Chapter 571
Chapter 571: 571
At noon the next day, Jiang Xiao returned to Edo city and returned to the hotel where the national team was staying. He was warmly welcomed by the students and Jiang Xiao could feel that the concern shown by his teammates was not fake.
Although they were all competitors before, after forming a team to fight for their country, they were all comrades in the same trench.
If one rose, one rose; if one fell, one fell.
After Jiang Xiao returned to his room, he finally heaved a sigh of relief.
As early as eighto’ clock in the morning, the team competition for the World Cup had already begun, and Han Jiangxue’s team happened to be the first to enter.
Jiang Xiao returned to Edo city immediately after watching the competition in hakata city.
The good news was that Han Jiangxue and her team had advanced to the next round. Although the process was extremely difficult, they had at least advanced.
After Jiang Xiao got off the plane, he received bad news that the Star Warriors team from Magic City had lost.
They had lost to a real seed team, a group of lightning Kings from the northern kingdom.
1 Shield Specialist, 1 melee fighter, 1 Magic caster, 1 support. It was a standard team configuration, but after the fight, the cooperation between the various professions was simply shocking!
The four of them were like a precise machine that had truly become one entity. That was what they called a God descending to the mortal world!
The damage output was simply explosive!
There was once a media outlet that posted an interesting comment: The northern Kingdom’s representative team was the king of speed in the individual competition, hou Mingming.
He was a well-deserved seed player, so it was only natural that he would be crushed all the way.
Although Shanghai’s star Warriors team had caused a lot of trouble for the other party, the seed team still won.
Jiang Xiao also watched the replay of the match. To be honest, if the Star Warriors team from Beijing were to encounter the team from the northern kingdom, they would probably be in trouble.
The four-man team from the northern kingdom was too powerful.
If Han Jiangxue’s support was Jiang Xiao, who was a strong control-type healer, it would be easier to handle. However, it would be difficult to play against a pure support like he Xu.
In the afternoon, Jiang Xiao stayed in his hotel room and watched the match between xiangnan military school and the Pharaoh of Guay.
The soldier was really fierce. After a tough battle, he finally made it to the top 17.
Their star techniques had very distinct regional characteristics. As their school was in xiangnan and the teams from the military schools were very close to each other, so …
Jiang Xiao seemed to have seen four “Zhao Wenlong”!
What was the roar of a Tiger and the roar of a Dragon, which was The Dance of Dragons and phoenixes …
Jiang Xiao’s blood was boiling as he watched the scene. It was simply too cool.
From a team point of view, xiangnan military school’s team was the same level as the team representing the northern kingdom.
Although it couldn’t be said that Han Jiangxue’s team was in a state of disunity, they were really inferior in terms of the compatibility of star techniques and the tacit understanding between the team members.
Just as Jiang Xiao was secretly commenting, a message appeared on his mobile phone.
A café?
Jiang Xiao stood up and deliberately “armed” himself, put on a cap and a mask, before walking out.
When Jiang Xiao walked out of the hotel, he was followed by two “bodyguards”…
One of them was the lightbulb good. Obviously, he had returned to his old profession.
As the trio chatted about the competition, they walked two streets and entered a coffee shop.
Jiang Xiao found the location of the room according to the number, only to see that the door of the room directly opposite was open, and there were four rather familiar-looking men inside.
Jiang Xiao’s two bodyguards were slightly stunned and greeted him with a smile before entering the room.
It turned out that there were four third-wheel bodyguards, who should be Han Jiangxue’s bodyguards …
Jiang Xiao pushed open the door of the room opposite, only to be greeted with the sight of Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan sitting opposite each other. The seats were rather interesting and unlike ordinary ones, they were basket-like.
Xia Yan crossed her legs and stepped on the ground with a little force, causing the chair to sway back and forth. She was holding a strawberry sundae in her hand and eating it with a small spoon while smearing a little cream on her cherry lips.
‘Hmm …’ It’s actually a little cute?
On the other hand, Han Jiangxue, who was sitting opposite him, did not have any signs of ADHD. She sat still on the basket chair and even the chocolate sundae in front of her table had melted a little.
“Waa! Xiaopi is here!” Xia Yan looked in the direction of the voice and her eyes lit up as she stood up.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly took two steps forward and sat on Han Jiangxue’s basket chair while shouting,””I’m making a reservation!”
Xia Yan blinked her beautiful big eyes and said,””Eh?”
Jiang Xiao chuckled and took off his mask. He then picked up the chocolate sundae on Han Jiangxue’s table and said,””Why aren’t you eating?”
Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao quietly without saying a word.
Xia Yan returned to her seat and said softly,””Your sister is a little strange today. She hasn’t said a word. There’s nothing …” Uh …”
Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows, took a bite of ice cream, and said,””Touch it.”
“What?” Han Jiangxue finally spoke.
Jiang Xiao said,”my arms, legs, and so on. Verify them. They’re all original.”
Han Jiangxue couldn’t help but glare at Jiang Xiao, not knowing how to start the conversation. However, Jiang Xiao had made everything much simpler.
“Here.” Jiang Xiao stretched out his right hand and placed it on the table.
Han Jiangxue slowly reached out her hand and held Jiang Xiao’s arm. She hugged him gently and hugged him.
Xia Yan’s expression changed and she opened her mouth to say something, only to be glared at by Han Jiangxue coldly.
Xia Yan swallowed her words and buried her head in the ice cream obediently.
Jiang Xiao was also a little dumbfounded and let his right arm hang down naturally, allowing Han Jiangxue to hug him gently.
He was just joking and thought that Han Jiangxue would at most pinch and pinch him. However, he did not expect her to actually do such a thing.
It was rare to see this side of her.
In the past two years, it had only happened a few times.
Once, when Xia Yan broke through to the late Nebula stage, it was on the steps in the backyard of Xia Yan’s Villa.
One time was in the snowfield, after the two of them had killed Mrs. Gao, in that dark cave.
The other time was when the two of them were trapped in Fang Xingyun’s ruins of calamity, and the endless waiting had almost made her despair.
Jiang Xiao leaned his head closer and whispered into her ear,””You know how strong my defense is. It’ll be fine.”
“Yes.” Han Jiangxue tightened her grip on Jiang Xiao’s arm, seemingly afraid of something.
Jiang Xiao grinned.”Don’t be like this. You’re making me feel like I just survived a disaster.”
“Isn’t that so?”Han Jiangxue suddenly asked.
Jiang Xiao chuckled and said,”it’s just a small matter. It’s nothing.”
“Oh my God, a small scene?” Xia Yan, who was sitting opposite him, was displeased and she clicked her tongue.”Did you watch the competition or not? You call that a small scene? If it wasn’t for the defensive cover, the stadium would have been blown up!”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Xia Yan looked at Jiang Xiao and couldn’t help but ask with a frown,””You really don’t value your life?”
“Don’t you feel any fear at all?”Han Jiangxue asked softly.
“Uh …” Jiang Xiao took a bite of ice cream and was at a loss for words.
Confidence, of course, came from strength. Perhaps Jiang Xiao trusted his diamond endurance more.
As for the physical and mental pain, they were nothing to Jiang Xiao. He didn’t enjoy them, but … Well, he was really used to it.
While the ordinary children were still in school and playing games, Jiang Xiao had already been through life-and-death battles again and again.
In particular, the journey to the snowfield as bait was a tempering process that would make Jiang Xiao’s heart undergo a qualitative change.
Perhaps, Jiang Xiao’s mentality was indeed different.
However, should he say it out loud? That would only make little jiangxue more worried.
Han Jiangxue said softly,”you can show off your victory like a child.” They could also feel fear and sigh at the fact that they had survived. In front of me, you don’t have to suppress your emotions. It’s better to let them out. ”
Jiang Xiao thought for a while and said,’I’m indeed a little scared. Wow!’ Thinking about it carefully, it was so terrifying. That big explosion! That’s too scary!”
Xia Yan was speechless.
Jiang Xiao suddenly turned to look at Han Jiangxue and said,””I need some spiritual comfort!”
“What?” Han Jiangxue raised her head.
Jiang Xiao stammered,’we …’ We, uh … Let’s go eat skewers!”
Xia Yan was speechless.
“Are you serious?” Han Jiangxue asked with a frown.
Jiang Xiao hurriedly said,”I need to comfort my soul and erase the shadow in my heart.
Eating skewers, singing, taking a bath, massaging …”
“Huh?” Han Jiangxue asked.
“No, no, I just said it.” Jiang Xiao hurriedly asked,”shall we go to the movies? Go to the game Center to catch dolls? That’s right! The astral pets amusement park in Edo is very famous. Let’s go there!”
The more Xia Yan listened, the more excited she became. She suddenly lowered her voice and said,””The two of you have a competition in a few days, can you take leave?”
Jiang Xiao waved his hand and asked,”leave? what leave?” I’ll go now! I need Mengmeng’s star pet to heal my soul. I can already feel that I’m slightly autistic. We can’t delay it. Let’s go!”
To Jiang Xiao, perhaps Han Jiangxue really needed to divert her attention. A few hours of playing with her should be able to comfort her disturbed heart.
Jiang Xiao took a sip of the melted chocolate sundae and stood up immediately. He raised a finger and said,””The only problem is …”
Han Jiangxue raised her eyebrows slightly.
“Why do I have two bodyguards while you have four?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Han Jiangxue was surprised.
Xia Yan snorted.”What kind of stupid question is this? what’s the point of asking this?”
Jiang Xiao lowered his voice and said,”of course it’s useful. Can knocking out four and six people be the same?”
“Oh!” Xia Yan covered her mouth with one hand and asked in shock,”you’re going to knock them out? Are you crazy? He’s a member of the national team!”
Jiang Xiao nodded and said,””I don’t think they’ll agree with our idea. They won’t let us go out and play.”
Jiang Xiao paused for a moment, clenched his fist, and said,””So … You know, there’s an old saying in China,”when you meet on a narrow road, the brave will win!””
“Uh …” Xia Yan leaned forward and said softly,”put us in the space and leave with a flash. Everything will be fine.”
“Eh?” Jiang Xiao asked.
It seems to make sense?
“Hehe.” Xia Yan covered her mouth and chuckled.”Are you just looking for trouble and trying to knock on the light bulb?”
Jiang Xiao was immediately unhappy and retorted,”I’ll hit you first!”
Xia Yan’s face stiffened and she stomped her feet in anger.””Ya!”
Han Jiangxue finally smiled and gently kicked Jiang Xiao’s shoes to stop the two of them from pecking each other.
