Nine Star Burden - Chapter 92
Chapter 92: Name
Ring~ Ring~ Ring~
A ray of medical light bounced in the dim sky in a dreamy manner.
The pure white ray of medical light leaped continuously in the big pit and connected the woman lying feebly in the middle of the big pit and the attacking crazy young man.
His dagger flew up and down, emitting an icy cold glow.
Jiang Xiao grabbed the dagger and punched a White Ghoul with his fist that was full of Green Glow, causing it to fall onto the ground.
The White Ghouls held themselves up by pressing their limbs against the ground. However, the repelling effects of Green Glow caused their limbs to sink into the ground.
Jiang Xiao possessed a Silver Quality Freehand Combat Star Technique. He subconsciously lifted his knees and struck the White Ghoul’s head forcefully. He then intentionally stabbed the dagger into the White Ghoul’s head.
However, the White Ghoul was blasted away, causing Jiang Xiao to miss.
Jiang Xiao thought to himself, This won’t do. I must do everything I can to destroy them and reduce their numbers instead of making them back off.
The White Ghouls had thick and coarse skin. Hence, they definitely wouldn’t be blasted away easily.
Faced with the menacing attacks, Jiang Xiao immediately stuck his left arm out at the White Ghoul that had its mouth wide open.
Ka-cha!
The White Ghoul revealed its sharp teeth and bit Jiang Xiao forcefully on his left arm while Jiang Xiao pierced the sharp dagger into the White Ghoul’s temple.
Going all out seemed to be the best solution.
Jiang Xiao no longer cared about remaining unharmed. Instead, his focus was on killing the enemies.
Jiang Xiao slowly took a few steps back while lugging the White Ghoul with his left arm, causing there to be deep marks on the ground.
The teeth of the White Ghouls were simply too sharp and the White Ghoul’s bite was too strong, so much that Jiang Xiao’s arm was almost ripped into pieces.
Jiang Xiao was all riled up too and he yanked off the head of the White Ghoul forcefully while his arm bled continuously. He was severely injured.
Looking at the White Ghoul that had been stabbed in the temple, Jiang Xiao immediately kicked its corpse away.
The prey of White Ghouls usually belonged to the same species!
The hungry White Ghouls immediately started biting the corpses of their companions.
Jiang Xiao again cast another ray of medical light and the melodious sound of Bell rang again, refracting at Second Last’s body, which Jiang Xiao had left an imprint on.
Fortunately, he had another companion.
Otherwise, Jiang Xiao’s Medical light would never bounce if he were by himself. Whenever he released “Bell”, it would only stay on his body temporarily and the frequency of treatment would decrease.
While Jiang Xiao was struggling, he never once realized that the right finger of Second Last seemed to have moved a little.
Taking advantage of the two severed White Ghouls, Jiang Xiao hurriedly turned around and scurried away. He then kicked the White Ghoul that was darting towards Second Last, after which he threw another punch with his injured hand as if he were pushing his arm towards it.
Jiang Xiao’s bloody arm was an endless temptation for the White Ghoul which had given up on tearing up Jiang Xiao’s body and was clutching at Jiang Xiao’s head. Instead, it stabbed its claw straight into Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and bit his body.
*Screech*
Suicidal attack!
Jiang Xiao had never realized how menacing he could be!
The truth proved that when one was forced onto the brink of death, they would either wait for death or suffer a mental breakdown.
Otherwise, they would go mad and turn delirious.
Jiang Xiao didn’t know how Guan Yu could still stay relaxed and play chess after being injured.
Jiang Xiao was overwhelmed with excruciating pain that was beyond what he could tolerate. The White Ghoul began ripping Jiang Xiao’s tender flesh apart, revealing his white bone.
Jiang Xiao stomped his foot against the ground and stuck his dagger out with his right hand, stabbing it into the White Ghoul’s heart.
Due to the massive power, the White Ghoul swiftly reacted and continued to advance instead of retreating. It then smacked Jiang Xiao on the head with its claws before aiming its fangs at Jiang Xiao’s neck.
Jiang Xiao’s body slanted towards the side.
*Screech*
Despite being pierced in the heart, it was still biting hard on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and ripping his flesh apart. The White Ghoul then staggered backward.
Jiang Xiao then placed his torn hand on his right shoulder that was bleeding continuously. Jiang Xiao seemed to have gotten used to the icy cold feeling. “Bell” covered his shoulder before leaping towards Second Last behind him.
His Star Power was depleted again.
He added another Skill Point.
–
Star Power Upgrade! Stardust Stage Level 8!
Skill Points: 3.

Jiang Xiao retreated slowly while facing the White Ghouls in front of him and on both sides of the pit.
The White Ghoul that was behind the two corpses also put down the delicacy in its hands while the White Ghoul Witch shrieked. It then slowly moved forward.
The most terrifying part was that there was a pair of red and menacing eyes around the rim of the pit that was staring down at the crowd.
They shuttled back and forth, seemingly trying to suppress their angsty feelings. However, they had no choice but to look up because of the White Ghoul Witch’s command.
The White Ghoul Witch seemed to be enjoying the view of the battle and the bloody feast in front of it. It seemed to be enjoying the scene of Jiang Xiao being tortured and relishing in the pleasure of inflicting harm onto Jiang Xiao.
Ring~ Ring~ Ring~
The sounds of Bell rang again, and it shuttled between Jiang Xiao and Second Last.
It slowly moved back and darted forward again. Although the wounds on Jiang Xiao’s left arm and right shoulder were slowly healing, they were still bleeding profusely.
The White Ghoul in front yelled and dashed forward again. However, the figure shattered and the White Ghoul missed.
—Silver Quality Star Technique, Decoy
At the instant that the White Ghoul missed, the figure in front of him split apart.
When Jiang Xiao was dashing forward, another clone of Jiang Xiao darted out again at the next moment.
The Northwest direction!
The White Ghouls from the West and the North rushed over quickly, trying to catch Jiang Xiao who was crawling around the pit in a bid to flee.
When a white ghost grabbed Jiang Xiao’s ankle as he ran up the pit, the figure shattered again.
At the center of the big pit, one of Jiang Xiao’s forms struck the White Ghoul on its head and kicked the White Ghoul into the bottom with his right leg that was full of Green Glow. Jiang Xiao tried his best to resist the urge to step on it as he began to regain mobility in his right hand again. He grabbed the dagger and stabbed the White Ghoul.
At the same time, another shadow dashed out of Jiang Xiao’s body while he was sprawled, in order to distract the White Ghoul that was coming from the East.
Ring~ Ring~ Ring~
The melodious sound of Bell rang again.
However, it was accompanied by a roar of exasperation.
Although the White Ghoul was being distracted, another White Ghoul pinned Jiang Xiao onto the ground again.
It slid his sharp claws along Jiang Xiao’s shoulders and pinned Jiang Xiao onto the ground. Without a doubt, the ferocious White Ghoul would definitely attack him soon.
What do I do about the attack from the back?
Do I just die here?
Whoosh!
A beam of light quickly descended on Jiang Xiao’s shoulders, giving the White Ghoul that was about to bite Jiang Xiao a great shock.
Jiang Xiao turned over abruptly and lied down on the ground, after which the dagger immediately pierced into the White Ghoul’s neck. “Ah!!!!”
As the dagger pierced into the neck of the White Ghoul, the blood splattered all over Jiang Xiao’s face and seemed to have ignited Jiang Xiao’s beastly nature. He swallowed the blood in a bid to moisturize his dry lips and throat.
Boom!
The White Ghoul on Jiang Xiao’s body turned over, and as soon as its corpse moved away, an evil ghost landed from the sky in an earth-shattering manner.
Jiang Xiao pulled his dagger back and the whole world seemed to have frozen at this moment.
Jiang Xiao’s arm was emitting Green Glow and a slight increase in pressure would cause the White Ghoul to be blasted away.
When the White Ghoul fell from the sky, its claws lit up and it extended its arm. Before Jiang Xiao could even stop him, the White Ghoul’s claws had already sunk into Jiang Xiao’s chest!
The White Ghoul’s body flinched and was thrown onto the ground beside Jiang Xiao.
At the next moment, a woman grabbed the 1.8-meter White Ghoul’s ankle and picked it up before forcefully throwing it out of the pit.
A group of White Ghouls from the surroundings seemed to have been deterred as they hesitated a little.
She lowered her head and saw the frightened Jiang Xiao.
She slowly leaned forward and covered Jiang Xiao’s eyes with her large body, after which she slowly extended a palm.
The woman then said in a hoarse voice, “Luan Hongying.”
Jiang Xiao raised his arm painstakingly and shook her palm. “Jiang Xiao.”
