Chapter 244: I Don't Want to Hear It

Chapter 244: I Don’t Want to Hear It

“What a bunch of mad dogs,” Xia Yan muttered while stepping on the heads of the Lava Ghouls with the giant sword in her right hand. She then pushed their corpses off the blade of her sword. There were already three or four Lava Ghoul corpses beside her body.

Jiang Xiao was also carrying his giant sword, which he used to hack the stubborn Lava Ghoul. He then answered with a nod, “It says on the books that these guys are classic examples of cowards that are afraid of the strong and bully the weak. As of now, I don’t think they’re pretending to be tough? They’re all putting their lives at risk.”

Xia Yan humphed. Having fought with the Lava Ghouls before during a trip to the volcanic Dimensional Space, she knew what they were like. She said, “You’ll get to see later.”

The Lava Ghouls were social creatures that lived in clusters and would charge forward without hesitation during fights. They were fierce, strong, and menacing, but they were not silly. They had interesting fighting habits too. They could even be considered adorable because…

After Xia Yan slaughtered five Lava Ghouls, the group of miniature creatures refused to give up and continued to dash forward while wailing out loud.

Xia Yan’s pupils constricted and she stuck her hand out to launch a Bursting Flames fireball, which collided with the Bursting Flames fireball that the Lava Ghoul threw out.

Bang!

Amidst the loud sounds of intensive explosions, Xia Yan and Jiang Xiao retreated continuously.

“Yo, yo, yo~” The dense Lava Ghouls with low IQ seemed to have suddenly remembered that they had Star Techniques. After realizing that the effects of the Bursting Flames fireball were not too bad, they stood rooted to the ground while continuously condensing Bursting Flames fireballs and threw them at Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan.

Xia Yan panicked and dodged left and right with lithe movements. However, the fact that the Bursting Flames fireball had such a name was because it was explosive and could affect the surrounding area.

Just as Xia Yan was becoming infuriated, she heard the sounds of Jiang Xiao commanding in a muffled voice. “At 10 o’clock. Rush forward and pay attention to avoid the Bursting Flames.”

Without saying another word, Xia Yan dragged the giant sword with both hands and rushed to the left, only to see four demons with fiery red skin and sharp claws condensing some Bursting Flames fireballs.

Xia Yan gave Jiang Xiao her trust and he repaid her for it with his hand.

—Gold Quality Star Technique, Sound of Silence!

It was as if a gavel was slammed against the forehead of the Lava Ghoul as Jiang Xiao yelled, “Be quiet! If you’re being wronged, bear with it. If you have something to say, hold it back!”

The Bursting Flames fireball in the hands of the four Lava Ghouls had yet to be condensed. For some reason, the fireball suddenly stopped condensing. That was not all. The small fireball was shrinking slowly and finally turned into a spark that floated under the cloudy sky.

“Yo, yo!?!”

“Ah! Wa!?!” The Lava Ghouls were suddenly at a loss for what to do and they continued to wail peculiarly while Xia Yan, the female tyrant of the Lava Lake West Road, surged forward like a lion attacking a herd of sheep. She beat them up into a pulp and caused them to shriek.

Jiang Xiao looked at her majestic back and watched the violent and bloody scene taking place in front of him. He couldn’t help but think to himself, How is someone like her going to get married in the future?

The seven Lava Ghouls beside her immediately changed their battle strategy.

Yes, they watched Xia Yan dodge their Bursting Flames fireball and kill four of their brothers brutally. Hence, they decided to change their strategy.

They were clamoring and shrieking, seemingly trying to communicate with each other using a special language. They then turned around and scurried away.

Xia Yan was bombarded by a bunch of red-skinned demons. How could she allow them to escape so easily? She hurriedly chased after them.

Xia Yan had extremely long legs. How could the Lava Ghouls outrun her?

At the next moment, the corners of Xia Yan’s mouth raised slightly.

Seeing that they couldn’t escape, the seven Lava Ghouls actually gathered in front of the cave and began stacking themselves on top of each other. They then burst into flames and formed a bonfire again.

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded. Is the information in the books true?

When they first start fighting, they will be extremely menacing. However, if half of their members die, or when they realize that really can’t beat the enemy, they will choose to escape.

When they discover that they aren’t fast enough and can’t escape the hunters, they will sort of “cover-up” and pretend to be a “bonfire.”

Dragging the giant sword along, Xia Yan made her way to the giant bonfire, placed a hand on her waist, and tilted her head to look at the few Lava Ghouls.

Their skin was red and their long fangs could not be hidden behind their lips at all. They were rather hideous.

The seven Lava Ghouls kept their eyes tightly shut and their bodies were covered in flames, seemingly frightened and horrified. They were praying for the hunter to leave.

Feeling playful, Xia Yan circled the bonfire and patted one of the Lava Ghoul’s buttocks with her giant sword.

The Lava Ghoul continuously whimpered and shivered in shock. However, the flames on their bodies were still burning and pretending to be bonfires.

Jiang Xiao stowed away eight Lava Ghoul Star Beads and said in amazement, “I thought the information in books was false. Turns out the Lava Ghouls really do have such characteristics.”

Xia Yan carried the giant sword and used the hot tip of the blade to gently prod the hideous face of the Lava Ghoul before saying with a nod, “Well, these little things are ugly but adorable.”

“The referees are watching us.” Jiang Xiao gestured to the headband on his head and suggested. “We had no choice but to kill those few. If we choose to let them off, leave a cluster behind and annotate it on the map. We’ll get a considerable amount of points.”

Xia Yan was a little unwilling. She pouted and said, “They blasted me just now.”

Jiang Xiao said, “Well…”

Xia Yan said stubbornly, “I don’t care, they blasted me.”

Jiang Xiao said, “But…”

Xia Yan exclaimed, “I don’t want to hear it! I don’t want to hear it!”

Xia Yan then stabbed them.

Mama mia!

This is the woman who taught me to be cruel!

Jiang Xiao looked at the hideous but adorable corpses and harvested seven Star Beads skilfully.

Okay.

She’s so quick~

After hacking a group of children to death, the principal Xia Yan finally felt much more comfortable. She then took out a bottle of mineral water, took a few gulps, and threw the remaining half onto his face. She muttered, “The water has turned warm. It’d be great to have some Ice-series Star Techniques.”

That was true.

Jiang Xiao had been wanting to drink some iced-plum juice for a long time. The conditions were truly unbearable.

Feeling rather comfortable, Xia Yan regained her rationality and said, “They often set up bonfires, but they rarely sing and dance.”

Jiang Xiao also recalled the scene that took place when he first met those creatures. “Huh? What’s going on?”

Xia Yan tilted her head while staring at the cave not far away and said, “Shall we go in and take a look?”

From the perspective of the examination, it would, of course, be better for the information that they collected about the terrain to be more detailed.

Jiang Xiao nodded immediately and went to the entrance of the cave with Xia Yan. He held onto a shot of Bell with one hand and threw it into the cave.

The two listened attentively and waited for a while, but did not hear any sounds of the bell ringing.

It was perhaps because there were no living creatures inside or perhaps because the terrain was more complicated and Bell did not detect any targets.

Xia Yan was carrying the giant sword when flames suddenly appeared in her hand like small snakes that crawled all over the giant sword.

She then slowly walked in with the huge torch.

As Jiang Xiao expected, the terrain inside was indeed a bit complicated, and the Bell that he had just launched at the wall had disappeared without a trace.

The two of them took tens of steps before Xia Yan stopped in her tracks and said, “We don’t know how deep and long this tunnel is, do we continue to explore and delve deeper?”

Jiang Xiao thought about it for a while and realized that it would be enough to annotate the cave opening. If they were to continue exploring, they would be wasting time. On the other hand, he was worried that they might get lost. That would be a huge loss.

Just as Jiang Xiao was about to suggest they leave, they suddenly heard a peculiar shriek from inside the tunnel.

Jiang Xiao looked at Xia Yan. Under the flames of the giant sword, her beautiful face was accentuated. She initially looked a little worried, but her expression changed completely. Her eyes glistened and she looked extremely excited.

“What’s the matter?” Jiang Xiao asked frantically.

“It’s your cup of tea.” Xia Yan licked her lips with excitement and continued, “That’s the voice of the Lava Ghoul, what do you say?”

What do I say?

What else can I say?

Let’s charge forwards, kill, and liberate~ Let’s indulge~
