So it was Wu Xiaojing, Alliance master.
…
Jiang Xiao initially thought that he had already seen the party of the nobles, but the truth was that he was still too young.
The next night, which was the night after the first round of the competition, Jiang Xiao was informed that there would be a ball and he was required to wear a mask and dress up.
Jiang Xiao had never attended a masquerade party before and he didn’t need to hide his identity before he could have fun.
Most of the people who entered the venue were participants, which also showed that most of the people here were Star Warriors, except for some who came with the team. Many of them had perception-type star techniques.
Some people were well aware of the face hidden behind the mask.
But even in this situation, with a layer of mask covering them, people could play freely and have fun to their heart’s content.
To be honest, Jiang Xiao could have had a few romantic encounters. In Prince bino’s words,””Anything that happens tonight will only remain tonight.”
This was an unwritten rule, an unspoken rule. Once someone broke this unspoken rule, they would be bombarded by everyone here. Everyone would gather their strength to maintain this ball.
This was also to protect their right to shed their status and Halo and play as much as they wanted.
After a few songs, Jiang Xiao rejected a few of them and left.
To Jiang Xiao, he was just here to broaden his horizons. However, to many people, it would be an extraordinary night.
However, it was meaningless to not open such an eye.
Not only did Jiang Xiao leave the dance floor, but he also left the party.
When he left, he even took half a bottle of red wine from the waiter …
Just now, the waiter saw Jiang Xiao walking towards him and stretched out his hand. The waiter immediately handed Jiang Xiao a wine glass, but Jiang Xiao let go of the wine glass in his left hand and took the bottle of red wine in his right hand.
Not only that, but Jiang Xiao also picked and picked at the fruit at the dining table before leaving in a flash.
That figure was as suave as he could get.
Some of the “observant people” on the dance floor noticed this and smiled knowingly. They were secretly guessing who the little toxic healer had gone to meet in private …
After leaving the ball, Jiang Xiao entered the dense forest in a flash.
The manor was far away from the city to begin with. In the depths of the distant forest, Jiang Xiao found a particularly quiet and hidden place.
However, even though he was in the dark forest, Jiang Xiao still summoned his tears domain. His eyes turned red and it began to drizzle in the dark sky.
There was indeed no one in the vicinity, but there were some wild animals.
After making sure that it was safe, Jiang Xiao opened the ruins of calamity and shadow and stepped into it. The space gate closed instantly, and the dense forest was still quiet, leaving only the drizzle that had stopped.
The ruins of calamity and shadow was brightly lit.
The huge flame engines had become street lamps, standing quietly like majestic flame sculptures. They were especially obedient and motionless. On their bodies, only the sparks and the occasional crackling sound could be heard.
Jiang Xiao walked towards the southeast corner with the red wine and the wet fruit platter in his hands.
He saw a familiar figure.
“Ha … Ha …” In the gym equipment area, a familiar figure was hard at work riding a bike, panting heavily.
He was drenched in sweat, just like Jiang Xiao, who had run to his death on the sports field in the capital. He looked as if he had just been fished out of the water.
She was wearing a black tank top and a pair of elastic pants. She did not wear any shoes. Under her sweat, the clothes clung tightly to her body, outlining her beautiful body.
Due to the position of the bicycle, Han Jiangxue’s back was facing Jiang Xiao at this moment, and there was a vast, dark starry sky in front of her.
She put on her headphones and held her bicycle with her hands. She rode rhythmically and looked straight ahead at the starry sky. No one knew what she was thinking.
Beside her, a large amount of dense star power was constantly gathering. It was a beautiful scene.
Jiang Xiao walked towards her quietly and looked at her familiar back. He hesitated for a moment and stood behind her quietly.
Han Jiangxue, who was wearing her earphones, couldn’t hear anything. In the ruins of calamity and shadow, her vigilance of her surroundings seemed to have dropped to the lowest.
However, as a Star Warrior with a keen sense of smell, she vaguely felt that someone was watching her.
Han Jiangxue stopped in her tracks and turned around abruptly. Her ponytail was swaying, and beads of sweat were flowing down her face.
Han Jiangxue’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Unlike what Jiang Xiao had imagined, she didn’t feel the joy of reuniting with him. Instead, she seemed to have suffered some grievances, but she was trying her best to restrain her emotions and not show them.
Therefore, her pitch-black eyes were filled with stubbornness, but her sweaty face was expressionless.
Jiang Xiao strode towards her and stood beside her before handing her the fruit platter.
It had been almost a week since Han Jiangxue entered the place and Jiang Xiao reappeared.
Han Jiangxue got on her bicycle again and looked at the starry sky in front of her.
Jiang Xiao grinned and placed the red wine on the ground. He then leaned against the stand in front of the bicycle and picked up a slice of mango with a fork before placing it on Han Jiangxue’s dry lips.
Han Jiangxue looked up at Jiang Xiao and pedaled her bike. A few seconds later, she opened her mouth and ate it.
Half of the large fruit platter was gone, and under the attack of the sweet fruits, Han Jiangxue finally took off her earphones and spoke first.””I’ve entered the pinnacle of the Galaxy stage.”
“That’s a good thing,”Jiang Xiao said.
Han Jiangxue ate the small piece of orange that Jiang Xiao fed her, feeling a little down.””I can’t find any way to transform stars into martial arts.”
Jiang Xiao comforted her softly.”That’s a matter for the Galaxy stage. Everyone has a chance to be enlightened.”
“Yes.” Han Jiangxue expressed assent and glanced at the dark red strawberry.
Jiang Xiao also picked up a strawberry and gave it to her.
Han Jiangxue asked,’how are you? Are you participating in the competition?”
“Yes.” Jiang Xiao nodded and said,”the first round of the competition is over. I’ve already advanced …”
Jiang Xiao talked about all kinds of strange star pets and told Han Jiangxue some interesting news.
When Jiang Xiao said that he had turned the rainforest leopard into a puddle of mud, Han Jiangxue finally smiled, as if she could imagine how obedient the ferocious star pet would be after being blessed.
More than half of the fruit plate had been devoured. Jiang Xiao knew that she was short of water and did not stop feeding her. However, Han Jiangxue shook her head slightly, indicating that she would stop eating and leave some for Xia Yan.
Jiang Xiao finally remembered that there was still a Husky here! Where is he?
Han Jiangxue said softly,”she needs a quiet environment to practice her swordsmanship. It’s in the depths of the space. It’s in the opposite corner.”
“Oh, I won’t disturb her then.” Jiang Xiao thought for a while and placed the fruit platter on the seat of the butterfly machine beside him. He then picked up the red wine and placed it on the table.”You can give it to her when she comes back to rest.”
“Okay, be careful,” Han Jiangxue said, seemingly having already given the order to leave.
However, Jiang Xiao picked up the towel on the machine beside him and helped her wipe the sweat off her shoulders and arms.
Han Jiangxue didn’t say anything and simply held onto the handle of the bicycle while looking at the starry sky and continuing with her training.
Jiang Xiao carefully wiped the sweat off her neck and said softly,””You know, as long as you’re not in a hurry, we’ll get everything we want and achieve our goals.”
There were some things that needed to be said.
However, Han Jiangxue’s movements became faster and faster.
Jiang Xiao said, all along the way …”
Han Jiangxue suddenly said,”I want to enter Galaxy before the World Cup. I have to cross over both physically and mentally.”
The voice was very determined, and the words were unyielding.
Jiang Xiao paused for a moment and said,”before I leave, I’ll ask principal yang, Qin Wangchuan, and second last to help me find a member of the Galaxy rules awakened who has a similar diagram to you. After I’m done with this Invitational Tournament, I’ll go back and ask them. If there’s such a senior, they might be able to give us some advice and guidance.”
Upon hearing his words, Han Jiangxue shifted her gaze from the dim stars in the distance to Jiang Xiao and expressed assent softly.
Seeing that she had calmed down, Jiang Xiao said,””What are you going to Galaxy for?”
Han Jiangxue said without hesitation,””Star pet, high-quality star techniques, stronger abilities and physical fitness.”
“What’s the point of all this?”Jiang Xiao asked.
“The Dragon Cave,” Han Jiangxue said.
Her answer was without hesitation. Her goal was clear, and she was working hard to achieve it.
As long as it was an individual, there would be laziness.
There was no one to supervise or guard this place.
Jiang Xiao only came by occasionally and saw how hard she was training. It wasn’t just a matter of self-discipline, but also a clear indication of her clear goals and determination.
Jiang Xiao said,”let’s get to the point. After we go to the Dragon Cave, we can’t find any traces of our parents. What are you going to do next?”
Han Jiangxue pursed her lips and said,”strange planet. They might be there.”
Jiang Xiao sighed heavily in his heart and said,””Yes, there’s a very small possibility. But you know, once we go to the alien planet, we will never be able to come back. ”
“I can’t come back.” Han Jiangxue stopped in her tracks and looked up at Jiang Xiao. She said,”you’re just bait.”
Jiang Xiao smiled and said,”you’re going to enter the strange ball. How can I use bait to accompany you?”
“You’ve told me many times that you’re the bait,”Han Jiangxue said.
Jiang Xiao said,”it’s very dangerous there, and the alien planet also means death. One day, my bait will die, and it may be a long time before I can see you again. After all, the location of the teleportation from the upper dimension to the alien planet is different every time, and the range is huge. Besides, you may also die an unexpected death during the blank period when we’re not together.”
Han Jiangxue seemed to have returned to being han Xiaojue and stared at Jiang Xiao stubbornly without responding.
Jiang Xiao asked,’is there really nothing here that you can’t bear to leave? This civilized society? The people on earth?”
Han Jiangxue opened her mouth but could not say a word for a long time. She was completely different from her previous self, who had a clear goal and was determined.
After a long while, Han Jiangxue said softly,”I’ll stay and accompany you.”
Han Jiangxue then lowered her head and continued to ride her bicycle.
“Han Jiangxue,” Jiang Xiao said softly.
Han Jiangxue frowned slightly, for she was not used to Jiang Xiao calling her by her full name.
Jiang Xiao said,’you’re a person who lives with a goal. You’ve said it yourself before. You’ve always behaved like this.’
For example, in high school, you’ll have to compete in the league tournament and get the rankings again and again until you’re admitted to the best university in China. You’ll be confused for a while and suddenly don’t know what to do. ”
Han Jiangxue remained expressionless and did not respond.
Jiang Xiao said,”the World Cup has saved you and given you a goal. It gives you a lot of motivation to live. If it weren’t for the World Cup, you might have gone even crazier.”
With the World Cup, her training goal was to win the championship among her peers.
Without the World Cup, Han Jiangxue’s training could only be to go to the Dragon Cave. Such a top-notch goal was a form of destruction for Han Jiangxue.
Jiang Xiao said,”even now, you can’t wait for the Second World Cup. You’ve clearly planned your motivation to survive. The Dragon Cave and the strange ball.” I know you very well. You think I’ll believe you and say that you’ll stay on earth to accompany me. ”
Han Jiangxue looked up at Jiang Xiao and said,””I’ve said that I’ll stay and accompany you, so I’ll definitely accompany you. You don’t need to doubt my promise to you.”
Jiang Xiao shut his mouth and stopped speaking.
Han Jiangxue slowly pedaled her bicycle and turned to look at the dim starry sky.
But here came the problem.
Living like a zombie, or struggling to survive with hope, which one was the right path in life?
Jiang Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed it on the back of Han Jiangxue’s head.
He lowered his head slightly, and his lips gently pressed against her sweaty forehead.
Han Jiangxue’s body stiffened slightly.
Jiang Xiao smacked his lips and thought to himself, the sweat is really salty …” “We all know what the result of exploring the Dragon Cave is. So, next topic.”
“Huh?” Han Jiangxue looked up.
“Do you think you’ll stay on earth to accompany me in the future, or should I go to the alien planet to accompany you?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Han Jiangxue bit her lip, feeling a little complicated.
This was indeed a problem.
Jiang Xiao patted Han Jiangxue’s shoulder and said,””Based on the intensity of your training and the speed of your training in the ruins of calamity and shadow, you’ll be able to get everything you want in less than half a year.
Let’s Make a Deal, I’ll go with you to the alien planet, and it must be the two of us.
Also, you have to respect my suggestion. I’m your comrade and your guide. Without me, it’ll be difficult for you to find the passage to the abnormal planet.
I hope that we can give ourselves more time to prepare. That time may not be in half a year’s time. ”
Han Jiangxue placed her elbows on the handles of the bicycle, lowered her head, and let out a deep sigh.
“I’ll consider it,”Jiang Xiao said softly.
Han Jiangxue lowered her head and sweat continued to drip down her face that had yet to be wiped by Jiang Xiao. After remaining silent for a long while, she expressed assent softly.
Jiang Xiao patted her back and said,””I’ll go back first. In a few days, I’ll bring a Platinum pet back to broaden your horizons.”
