Chapter 161: I Love You Too

Chapter 161: I Love You Too

Second Last watched as Jiang Xiao slowly put away the Star Map, seemingly still reminiscing the beauty of the Big Dipper Star Map.

Feeling a little uncomfortable because of her question, Jiang Xiao asked, “How are we supposed to train? This place is too small. Shall we go to a gym?”

Second Last shook her head and said, “No, it’s too safe there.”

Slightly stunned, Jiang Xiao asked, “What… what do you mean?”

Second Last said, “I hope you can learn something real on the battlefield.”

Jiang Xiao panicked and said, “I’m still a high school student who has just come out of the arsenal…”

Second Last interrupted Jiang Xiao and said, “Or I can take you to the snowfield and train you there. Or maybe, you can go back to school for lessons. You choose.”

Upon hearing the word “snowfield”, Jiang Xiao felt a great sense of relief.

The snowfield… would definitely bring about inevitable physical pain, as the environment was undoubtedly harsh.

However, with Jiang Xiao’s current abilities, he probably wouldn’t place his life in danger as long as he didn’t barge into the Holy Ground foolishly.

With a sullen expression on his face, Jiang Xiao thought about it carefully. The dangers in the Arsenal were far beyond his imagination. He decided to first save his own life before learning and studying.

The Beijiang Provincial High School League was just around the corner and he felt that he ought to get ready to overcome this obstacle first.

Since he had to train hard and become stronger, the harsh environment in the snowfield was indeed a good option.

Not only could Jiang Xiao learn Freehand Combat and dagger skills with Second Last’s help, but he could also learn and absorb the Xia Family Swordsmanship techniques according to the prompts and guidance of the internal Star Map.

Most importantly, training hard in that harsh environment would allow Jiang Xiao to experience a significant improvement in his physical fitness.

Everyone knew that Jiang Xiao was just like a vase, and despite being in the Nebula Stage, his actual Star Power level was just in the late Stardust Stage.

Besides, Jiang Xiao could also obtain some more White Ghoul Star Beads in the snowfield or even some White Ghoul Witch Star Beads.

White Ghoul Witch Star Beads were not available for purchase on the market.

Obtaining more would bring him more benefits.

After all, the Gold Quality Blessing was very tempting!

All in all, going to the snowfield to train was an excellent choice.

Jiang Xiao gritted his teeth angrily and stomped his feet. “Fine, I’ll go with you!”

After the two of them settled on the decision, Second Last decided to drop the subject and focus on finishing the dishes on the table.

During the meal, Second Last finished at least three fishes. She clearly had a huge appetite.

To Jiang Xiao’s dismay, Second Last cleaned up after herself and turned around to leave the kitchen.

She left behind a table full of plates and crockery, as well as a completely untouched serving of shredded fish with pork.

What’s going on?

After being confused for a few seconds, Jiang Xiao got up to chase after her, only to see that she had closed the door.

It seemed that she was still staying in Jiang Xiao’s tiny room.

Jiang Xiao pushed the door open and was greeted with the sight of Second Last lying on his single bed.

“You’re going to sleep right after you eat?” Jiang Xiao asked.

The small single bed was indeed uncomfortable for Second Last who was all huddled up, seemingly having gotten used to this sleeping position. She was lying on the side facing the wall, with her back facing Jiang Xiao. “Go clean up the table now.”

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

My life was in danger when I was in the Arsenal and I managed to come back in one piece after painstaking efforts. Yet, you want me to clean up after you?

“Tell your family that we’ll be going to the snowfield tomorrow morning, and I will prepare the weapons for you.” Second Last then closed her eyes slowly and said, “I’m going to take a nap. Don’t disturb me.”

Jiang Xiao felt an urge to stomp his feet and cuss his heart out. He thought, I’m still a kid and I just returned from the Arsenal. Well, I’ve returned in glory.

For low-level Awakened like Jiang Xiao, being able to return to Earth safely from the Arsenal was indeed an honorable feat. Not to mention, he had encountered plenty of danger in there.

Staring at the large Second Last lying on the bed, Jiang Xiao opened his mouth but did not cuss in the end.

Have I found a phony for a master?

Hais…

Jiang Xiao sighed and closed the door.

Upon returning to the bathroom, he whipped out his mobile phone from his pants and sent Han Jiangxue a message on WeChat, only to see that he had numerous unread messages.

Hey, Has Zhu Wu succeeded?

Has he managed to win the heart of the little lolita Liu Ke?

Jiang Xiao saw Zhu Wu’s and Elena’s messages.

He opened the group chat which he had long muted the notifications for, only to see that there was a heated discussion in the group two days ago.

Zhu Wen: [Congratulations. Congratulations, my brother. You’ve succeeded in love and your career.]

Zhu Wu: [Hehe, I’m glad.]

Little Ke likes to sleep (Liu Ke): [Ah, cut it out, you guys. I’m feeling so shy.]

Citizen of China Yi Lianna: [I’ve finally sent her away. I almost made a loss.]

Little Ke likes to sleep (Liu Ke): [You, shut up too.]

Jiang Xiao scratched his head and looked at the message that was sent two days ago and replied: [@ZhuWu, what are your abilities? You found yourself a Lolita? Does your family own a gold mine?]

Citizen of China Yi Lianna: [Huh? The senior of Year Three has spoken.]

Yi Lianna was the first to reply and the group chat instantly became livelier.

Little Ke likes to sleep: [The School Tyrant is speaking. I’m just a junior who’s shivering and too afraid to speak.]

Citizen of China Yi Lianna: [Sir School Tyrant, I heard you went to train? How did it go? Did you get injured?]

Little Ke likes to sleep: [Nothing must happen to you. Yi Lianna was still talking about you in her dreams last night.]

In the classroom of Year One Class 2 of Jiangbin High School.

After sending the messages on WeChat, Liu Ke covered her mouth and secretly thought to herself in glee, This damned Eurasian. She deserves it for teasing me every day.

In the last row of the classroom, Yi Lianna blushed and glowered at Liu Ke.

Zhu Wen was seated in the second last row and was looking at the teacher who was standing in front of the blackboard, seemingly deep in thought. However, Zhu Wen was fast asleep and seemed to have failed to notice the vibration of his mobile phone.

Jiang Xiao, who was at home, scratched his head and was about to say something when his mobile phone rang all of a sudden.

Jiang Xiao picked it up to hear Han Jiangxue’s voice.

While walking toward the kitchen, Jiang Xiao answered, “Oh, by the way, please help me to apply for leave. I’d like to go to the snowfield to train again.

“It’s already the end of November, and there is slightly more than a month to go until the provincial league is here. I’d like to go get some White Ghoul Witch Star Beads and see if I can improve.

“Yes, because Second Last is here. This is a rare opportunity. She’s one of the Guardians Of The Night and the main output.

“It’s a pity not to seize this opportunity. Little Jiangxue, a personal trainer like her can’t be hired even with money. You know, at this age, I ought to focus on increasing my Star Power level.

“Hey, what are you saying? How can I apply for leave on my own? You’re my parent…

“Let’s not talk about education for now. I’m in Year Three, aren’t I? The bonus points awarded in the college entrance examination are related to fighting, and increasing my abilities is my main focus for now.

“Don’t be like this, Han Jiangxue. You were the one who suggested this, but it’s the path I have to take.

“Moreover, I do want to have a good relationship with her. She’s a member of the Guardians Of The Nights. No one can be sure about the future.”

Jiang Xiao held his mobile phone in between his face and shoulder and tidied up the table while answering Han Jiangxue. “It’s settled, then. I’ll go get the sword from you later. Don’t come over, I think you’d better not see her. You two won’t get along.”

After Han Jiangxue said something, Jiang Xiao paused in his actions and remained silent for a moment before responding, “I’m not thinking that far ahead. Right now, I just want to do well in the provincial league and not become a burden to the team.

“Hey, what are you snatching it for? Give the phone back to my sister, I don’t want to speak to you.”

“Be good, cut it out. I love you too.” Jiang Xiao put down the plates and hung up.

This is exciting.

Fortunately, I hung up quickly.

Otherwise, I would have been rejected.
