Chapter 356: Numb person

In the holy ground in the depths of the snowfield.

A huge figure was extremely agile. It moved around in a flash and strolled in the sea of white ghouls, slaughtering the ugly white ghouls with ease.

However, her pair of Red Phoenix eyes would look into the distance from time to time, looking at the figure that was deep in the “quagmire”.

Second last had the height advantage and could see Jiang Xiao at a glance.

What made her a little worried was that Jiang Xiao’s expression was getting more and more sullen, and his movements were getting more and more skillful. However, his heart seemed to have become colder as well.

Back then, in the White Mountain range, the two of them had to struggle in such a tough environment for a month, but Jiang Xiao was still as heartless and cheeky as ever.

However, after only training in the snowfield holy ground for ten days, Jiang Xiao had undergone tremendous changes.

To be honest, second last liked ‘robots’. She liked soldiers who followed orders strictly and her comrades who were stern and cold. She didn’t like children who were all smiles.

Although Jiang Xiao was usually mischievous and reckless, he was still very reliable during battles. Hence, second last had never said anything.

However, it was different now. With the daily life of killing, Jiang Xiao had become more and more gloomy and cold-blooded. He had gradually become someone that second last liked, but she couldn’t bear to watch it anymore.

…

At the end of the day, she was not only his superior but also his teacher.

To be sad, Jiang Xiao was one of second last’s few friends. Hence, she was a little worried about his mental state.

“Little Jiang.” Second last chuckled and should have received a quick response, but her voice seemed to have sunk into the sea.

Jiang Xiao waved the giant sword in his hand continuously and worked well with the dagger on his thigh. He would occasionally clear his surroundings and use his bow to stop the retreating white Ghoul witch.

The arrow was extremely fast and powerful.

The faster he drew the bow, the faster he drew it back.

This was something he had been forced to train in actual combat. He had no choice but to be more Swift and fierce, and his movements were sharper.

Daggers breaking throats, giant blades opening the way.

Jiang Xiao suddenly retreated and climbed up the wall in two steps. He then inserted his giant sword into the wall and hung from the high wall of the holy ground. With his vision restored, five rays of black light suddenly shot out of his body.

The five pitch-black rays were like five huge tails. Perhaps, Jiang Xiao would be more suitable to be the “five tails” at this moment.

Four rays of counter-current light shot towards the White Ghoul witch that was pinned to the ground, while the remaining one shot towards the gigantic second last.

“Answer me.” Second last took the opportunity to speak.

What responded to her was the rapid loss of star power and part of her vitality.

Jiang Xiao replied,

He was an assassin.

Emotionless,

Even more so, his soul …

Jiang Xiao leaped onto the wall and pulled out the giant sword that was deeply embedded in the wall. He then turned around and rushed towards a white Ghoul witch that had been forced to level up.

In second last’s eyes, his eyes were numb and he seemed to have gone through thousands of times of mechanical movements. His movements should have been tempered and improved, but for some reason, he seemed to have no spirituality at all.

To him, these restless white ghouls were no longer living beings.

He ignored everything.

He no longer had any reverence in his heart.

Thump!

The giant sword suddenly collided with the silver spear, causing sparks to fly. Second last’s hoarse voice sounded in Jiang Xiao’s ears.”Jiang Xiao!”

Jiang Xiao suddenly came back to his senses, only to be grabbed by the collar by her. She leaped onto the head of the White Ghoul and ran out of the holy ground.

As soon as second last rushed out of the holy ground with Jiang Xiao in her arms, a burst of Starlight gushed out of her body like a stream, and a white snowy feather instantly appeared in this world.

Second last grabbed the horse’s hooves and flapped her wings. Her body was pulled down and she was almost drowned in the sea of white ghouls.

Xiaoxiao tried her best to fly upwards and the White ghouls below continued to pile up into a mountain. They were still trying to climb up and grab the two of them. However, second last waved her hand casually and a gust of cold wind blew past, rendering all the efforts of the White ghouls useless.

Just like that, second last grabbed the horse’s hooves with one hand and carried Jiang Xiao with the other before flying out of the snow-capped Canyon and rushing towards the stronghold of the night guards.

The two of them were carried by Xiaoxiao and remained silent all the way until they entered a cave of the night guards. Second last then threw Jiang Xiao on the ground.

Jiang Xiao placed a hand on his forehead and seemed to have realized that something was wrong with him.

The group of night watchmen left quickly. They knew that this was the chief of the light-chasing group teaching apprentices. It had been ten days, and every time they went out, they would rush back when they were exhausted.

It was said that the apprentice was not allowed to use star techniques and could only struggle to survive in the holy ground with his body and sword and bow skills.

The guardians of the night’s attitude towards Jiang Xiao had changed again and again. They initially thought that he was using his connections to gain experience in the holy ground. Of course, the guardians of the night disdained such a person.

Now, they were filled with respect for Jiang Xiao whenever they saw him coming back covered in injuries.

This might be someone who got in through connections, or the second generation of some family, but he was definitely a real man, a tough and determined warrior!

The night watchers had also witnessed a child’s transformation from playful to taciturn. However, due to his identity, they had never reminded him.

Now, it seemed that this officer light-chasing had also discovered it.

Second last had long noticed the signs, but she only felt that she should interfere with Jiang Xiao’s thoughts now.

“What happened just now?” In the empty cave, second last looked down at Jiang Xiao and asked.

Surprisingly, she didn’t look angry, nor was she too stern. On the contrary, her voice was as gentle as possible.

This was perhaps her softest side. Unfortunately, Jiang Xiao was in no mood to feel it at this moment.

What was going on?

Jiang Xiao smiled wryly and thought to himself, what else could it be? I’m just numb.

Although the snowy mountain region was a hundred times more dangerous than this place, there was time to rest when carrying out missions there. They had to hurry, make plans, and chat. But here …

In the holy ground, there was only killing, killing, killing …

Endless killing and endless white ghouls.

In Jiang Xiao’s world, there seemed to be only white and red. The world was so boring that even the cruel acts were buried by the boring time.

Every minute and every second, new souls would be added to Jiang Xiao’s sword.

When living beings were no longer treated as living beings, the problem was huge.

Fortunately, Jiang Xiao was still aware of his own problems. It was not too late.

Second last casually stuck her silver spear into the ground and walked towards Jiang Xiao. She knelt down and pressed her hand gently on Jiang Xiao’s head.””There’s something wrong with my training method. You’ve become a machine.”

What second last said made sense. From Jiang Xiao’s internal star map alone, his “Xia family swordsmanship” didn’t improve at all despite him striking and withdrawing his sword thousands of times!

The Xia family swordsmanship was still at silver quality level 9!

Perhaps Jiang Xiao’s killing techniques had become more and more skillful, but his swordsmanship had not improved at all.

Having said that, these ten days of special training had actually raised his dagger skill from silver quality level 4 to silver quality level 7!

Star power abundance rose from Silver level 2 to Silver level 3.

His bow and arrow mastery had also been upgraded from brass quality level 8 to brass quality level 9.

Uh … So, if he didn’t increase the quality by a large amount and only increased the level by a small amount, he wouldn’t need a soul?

Only proficiency is required?

Jiang Xiao lowered his eyes and remained silent for a while before saying,””We don’t have to end the special training. Maybe we should take a day off?”

His tone made second last feel much more at ease. She gently rubbed Jiang Xiao’s head and said,””I’ll take you to eat fish. ”

“No,” she said. Jiang Xiao shook his head, raised his hands, and grabbed second last’s hand that was on his head.”Let’s just relax in the snowfield.”

It was rare for second last to speak in a higher tone.””What?”

Jiang Xiao fiddled with her long fingers and asked softly,””You’ve been a Night Watcher here for so long. Have you really seen the border of the snowfield?”

Second last was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

This question stumped her. She had indeed never seen the border of the snowfield.

“Let’s go,”he said. Jiang Xiao let go of second last’s hand and quickly got up to pick up the blood-red giant sword that was scattered on the ground.

Second last looked up at Jiang Xiao and said in a hoarse voice,””Changing your clothes, washing your body, eating, and sleeping will make you feel better.”

“I need a white Ghoul witch and a quiet and secluded place,” Jiang Xiao replied.

Second last raised her eyebrows and looked at Jiang Xiao’s determined expression. She nodded thoughtfully and said,””If you enter this state again, I’ll take you out of here.”

Jiang Xiao nodded firmly.

He was filled with gratitude towards second last.

If it weren’t for her, Jiang Xiao’s goal of Platinum blessing and Platinum bait would definitely be far away or even impossible to achieve.

At this moment, in Jiang Xiao’s internal star map, the words ‘blessing’ and ‘decoy’ were written in the two columns:

[Blessing], gold quality level 9 (90/100)

Bait, gold quality level 9 (90/100)

All he needed to do was to pour out another silver quality white Ghoul witch star bead and he would be able to see the Platinum blessing and Platinum bait.

Platinum gave her blessings.

What kind of effect would it have?

Platinum bait,

And what kind of surprise will it bring me?
