Chapter 1012: Out of the mountain!
Translator: 549690339
The next morning.
In the world of calamity and shadows, in a stone villa.
“Uh …” Xia Yan rubbed her head and opened her sleepy eyes. She looked at the ceiling and only remembered where she was after a long while.
This was his own room.
Xia Yan got up in a daze, lifted the blanket, and stepped on the stone floor. The cold touch passed through her toes and seemed to reach her heart directly. She hurriedly curled her legs and hid her feet back in the warm blanket.
She leaned forward and looked down, but she couldn’t find her shoes. Helplessly, she propped herself up, looked around, and whistled at the clothes rack by the door.”Shh~”
The pitch-black Sea-devouring soul immediately floated over and covered her body.
Xia Yan’s body stiffened slightly.
She finally realized that something was wrong!
It was no longer a matter of whether she had lost her shoes or not, but that she was wearing pajamas! It wasn’t The Night Watch uniform!
The more Xia Yan thought about it, the redder her face became. She quickly dodged while wearing the sea-devouring soul.
In order to get out of the world of calamity and shadows, Jiang Xiao had to open the door from the outside. The only way to inform Jiang Xiao was to find Jiang Shou, who was stationed there.
Xia Yan flickered a few times and found Jiang Shou standing in front of the kitchen counter in the dining room on the first floor of the villa.
“Jiang … Jiang Shou!” Xia Yan stammered and raised her eyebrows.”Jiang Xiao!” She exclaimed.
“What?” Jiang Xiao (Jiang Shou) was wearing an apron and had an Apple in his mouth. He turned around and looked at her while holding a knife in his hand, seemingly cutting meat.
Xia Yan asked fiercely,””Where are my shoes? Where did you throw it to? My clothes … Where are the clothes?”
Jiang Xiao blinked and cut two pieces of beef before placing them on the plate.
He carried the plate to the joint between the dining room and the living room and placed it on the bar counter. Then, he took the Apple from his mouth and chewed it in big mouthfuls.”I don’t know. Qingchen helped you to change your clothes. I don’t know where she threw your clothes to.”
“Uh … Oh. ” Xia Yan’s anger suddenly dissipated and she responded softly with mixed feelings.
While eating the Apple, Jiang Xiao gestured to the plate and said,””Eat some, don’t go hungry. The situation outside isn’t very good, and we still have to fight on this front line for a while. You eat first, you go out later and replace Han Jiangxue. She’s also been fighting all night.”
Jiang Xiao then turned around, walked back to the dining room, and picked up the hot milk bottle.
Xia Yan floated over and sat down on the bar stool. Looking at the person who was walking back with a glass of milk, she felt a little guilty and said,””What’s the situation outside?”
“As long as we are involved with other countries, the situation will be very complicated. Last night, we have already fought several times with the border guards of the great Meng Empire, both in the open and secretly.” Jiang Xiao humphed and gestured for the warm milk to be poured before turning around to continue making breakfast.
Xia Yan looked anxious.”Then, quickly send me out. I’ll help you.”
“What’s the hurry?” Jiang Xiao said angrily without even turning his head and continued to cut the cooked beef.”You didn’t even sleep with your shoes, yet you’re still urging me!” We’ll talk after eating. ”
“Hmph,” he snorted. Xia Yan snorted in dissatisfaction and lowered her head. She then picked up a slice of Apple from the plate and threw it into her mouth.
Although there weren’t many ingredients in the world of calamity and shadows, this breakfast was very sumptuous.
The main reason was because Jiang Shou, who was stationed here, was responsible for delivering three meals to Gu Shi ‘an and Yi qingchen every day.
The two of them had been training hard day and night, and it was extremely taxing on their stamina. Although Yi qingchen had the help of blessing, Jiang Xiao still tried his best to make sure that their meals were nutritious and full of nutrients.
Since Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue would also be training there, Xia Yan was no stranger to the Jiang corporation’s nutritious breakfast.
On a white porcelain plate, there were four slices of apple, four slices of orange, two pieces of cooked beef, a piece of boiled wild vegetable, and a cup of hot milk from huapan beef.
As the saying went,”one must scheme for one’s position in one’s politics.” While cutting the beef, Jiang Xiao continued,””I’ve run out of eggs again. It’s time to ask uncle hai for eggs. After this crisis is over, we’ll expand old Hai’s chicken farm.
I heard that Auntie hai has stewed a lot of old hens for teacher Fang’s confinement. The chicken farm is almost gone because of teacher Fang. ”
“Pfft … Cough, cough …” Xia Yan had just taken a sip of milk when she heard Jiang Xiao’s words. She couldn’t breathe and coughed.
“Quickly be a human!” Jiang Xiao turned around and asked helplessly,”how old are you? It can spread out even when drinking milk? I just finished mopping the floor!”
“Uh …” Xia Yan wiped the milk stains from the corner of her mouth with one hand and changed the topic.”Why did you cut two pieces of beef? Why did you eat so much for breakfast today?”
“Yes.” Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiao’s attention was indeed diverted. He sighed and said,”eat more beef. The crocodiles breed too quickly. It’s all my fault for being too young. I stole too many cows back then …”
Xia Yan was speechless.
Xia Yan finished her food in a few bites and pushed the plate away.””I’ll go get dressed. ”
“Argh! Get dressed and wait for me in the living room!” Before Jiang Xiao could finish his sentence, Xia Yan had already left.
“Ah …” Jiang Xiao sighed and opened the door of the calamity shadow training space beside him before walking towards it.
At the next moment, Jiang Xiao was stunned.
Usually, he would have to shout “it’s time to eat “several times before the two people who were working hard would come over.
Today, Yi qingchen was nowhere to be seen and he should be training in the depths of the space. However, Gu Shi ‘an was sitting cross-legged at the door, waiting for Jiang Xiao to arrive.
“Are you hungry?” Jiang Xiao looked at Gu Shi ‘an and couldn’t help but laugh.”Come on, dinner’s ready.”
“I’ve advanced to the starry sea stage!”Gu Shi ‘an said hurriedly.
“Oh?” Jiang Xiao was overjoyed and asked,”Galaxy? What’s the use of transforming stars into martial arts?”
Gu Shi ‘an clenched his fists and said,”defend!” Damage!”
Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up!
Gu Shi ‘an’s star map of the big shield should have a defensive function, and it was also full of sharp thorns, which should also have a certain damage function.
However, Jiang Xiao was particularly interested in the so-called “harm”.
“How do you do it?” Jiang Xiao asked.
Gu Shi ‘an was stunned for a moment, then said matter-of-factly,””It’s transforming stars into martial arts, using the thorns on the shield to stab people. You can’t even understand this?”
Jiang Xiao had a strange expression on his face.”If you’re not convinced, let’s have a fight in reality. Do you think you’ll be done after I stab you?”
Gu Shi ‘an did not know what to say.
Jiang Xiao chuckled and said,”come out and take a shower. Have some food. I’ll find some star beads for you after that. You can absorb the space-time gap and the ruins of calamity.”
Gu Shi ‘an was speechless.
Seeing that Gu Shi ‘an was in a daze, Jiang Xiao urged,””Hurry up and come out, what are you doing?”
Gu Shi ‘an’s Adam’s apple moved.””The space-time gap and the ruins of calamity?”
Gu Shi ‘an knew that ever since Jiang Xiao had accepted him, he had already treated him as one of his own and given him all the resources, conveniences, and the best things.
But … When Jiang Xiao said that he was going to give him the most precious spatial star bead in the world …
Gu Shi ‘an shook his head and smiled. Spatial star beads are precious? Of course, it was precious, but it also depended on what it was compared to.
If you were to compare the spatial system star beads to the calamity shadow training space, it seemed that the star beads were nothing at all.
Gu Shi ‘an had relied on the training space provided by Jiang Xiao to advance to the Galaxy stage at a speed that was almost 10 times faster than before …
Jiang Xiao looked at the stunned Gu Shi ‘an and said,””Hurry up, I’ve already prepared the star beads for you. Hurry up and take a shower. You stink.”
Before he could even finish speaking, Yi qingchen appeared beside the two of them in a flash, only to hear the last sentence of Jiang Xiao’s sentence.
Yi qingchen hurriedly took a few steps back and looked at Jiang Xiao in embarrassment. She then raised her arm and sniffed her clothes.
“What’s there to smell? I’ve been practicing day by day. How can it be fragrant?” Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but laugh and said,”come out and wash up. By the way, where are Xia Yan’s shoes? where did you throw them?”
Yi qingchen’s face turned red and he rolled his eyes at Jiang Xiao.””I washed her clothes and shoes by the river and left them on the three-story platform to dry.”
Jiang Xiao nodded and could tell from Yi qingchen’s face that he was saying,”A good wife and mother!
However, to be honest, Xia Yan really couldn’t watch it yesterday. She was drenched in rain and sweat from the battle in tears.
“Also …”
“What?” Jiang Xiao turned around to look at Yi qingchen.
Yi qingchen whispered,”she’s covered in blood. I also threw Xia Yan into the river to wash her body. Did she catch a cold?” After I put her on the bed, I especially gave her my blessing. ”
However, Jiang Xiao was amused. He laughed and said,””Bring some charcoal next time. Add some sesame, cumin, chili noodles, and so on. We can change the flavor.”
Gu Shi ‘an’s eyes suddenly widened, while Yi qingchen shot Jiang Xiao a look.
Jiang Xiao was slightly taken aback and felt a chill run down his spine.
Speak of the Devil and Xia Yan will be there.
Before Jiang Xiao could even react, he was already grabbed by the back of his neck by Xing Haiyan.
Jiang Xiao turned around and looked at Xia Yan. He smiled awkwardly and said,””Goddess Yan, you’re back?”
Xia Yan grabbed Jiang Xiao and placed one hand on her waist. She yelled angrily,””If you continue to delude the public with your lies, I’ll drag you to the river and roast you!”
“You can be gentler! Xia Yan!” Gu Shi ‘an was startled and said hurriedly,”he’s bait! If you crush him, the three of us will be trapped here!”
“It’s fine, I didn’t use much strength. ” Xia Yan waved her hand, but she was still carrying Jiang Xiao in her hand. Hence, Jiang Xiao also waved his hand in the air.
To her surprise, Jiang Xiao, who was dangling in the air, suddenly said,””I know you didn’t use much strength, but … But what if I fall down before you even use your strength?”
Xia Yan was speechless.
……
The four of them walked out of the training space while Yi qingchen went to take a bath by the lake. Jiang Xiao then got Xia Yan to go to the underground treasure room and take out the inventory that they had obtained from the void.
This was an opportunity that second last had applied for previously. It was also the second time that Jiang Xiao and the others had entered the void and killed their way into the dimensional space.
The three of them sat at the bar in the restaurant while Jiang Xiao and Xia Yan held their breaths and watched Gu Shi ‘an absorb the star beads one by one.
Gu Shi ‘an was a Shield Specialist, not a melee fighter. The star map didn’t seem to fit with the gap of time and space and the ruins of calamity and shadow.
Of course, although they didn’t fit, they didn’t conflict.
With Gu Shi ‘an’s high-level qualifications of 27 Star Slots, he had absorbed a total of 32 star beads before he could equip the space-time gap and the ruins of calamity.
The probability of acquiring a precious spatial-series STAR technique out of 16 star beads was already very good.
For some reason, the star map of the melee series was more suitable for the spatial series star techniques than the star map of the shield warrior.
So … Did the big shield mean that he had to stand still?
The big shield could only take hits, but it couldn’t appear and disappear like a ghost, right?
Gu Shi ‘an, who had absorbed two star techniques, was overjoyed and left in a flash.
Xia Yan was slightly stunned and threw the void Star bead into a wooden box.””Where did this kid go?”
If the world were to see Xia Yan throwing the void scourge star bead like a glass ball, they would probably curse her to death.
Jiang Xiao put the lid on the box filled with the void calamity star orb and said,””Who knows?”
Although he said that, Jiang Xiao had already guessed where Gu Shi ‘an had gone.
It should be … Did he go to the memorial?
He had been promoted to the star sea, and his star map had been filled with Shield Specialist skills and space-series star techniques. Gu Shi ‘an’s strength had been improved qualitatively.
He should share this good news with his family.
“Let’s give him another sea-devouring soul. This way, our big cloak organization will grow stronger again!”Xia Yan said.
Jiang Xiao looked at Xia Yan in a bad mood and said,””You’re really a genius at naming! By the way, I still have a team on the alien planet, the kind that I want to build on a large scale. Can you take the effort to give my organization a name? It’s best to add a serial number. ”
Xia Yan immediately patted her chest and said heroically,””No problem! I’ll think of a more domineering one for you!”
Jiang Xiao shook his head repeatedly and said,”you don’t have to be domineering. Just perform as you normally would. The most boring thing is the tide!”
“Then you see, I’m … Hmm?” Xia Yan slammed her palm on the table and looked at Jiang Xiao.”What do you mean?”
While they were talking, Gu Shi ‘an, who was all wet, came back in a flash.
It seemed that he didn’t go to the memorial, but went to take a bath?
Gu Shi ‘an’s expression was firm, and he said, I can go out now! You can fight with the team now!”
“Yes.” Seeing the determination in Gu Shi ‘an’s eyes, Jiang Xiao grabbed a plate from the table beside him and said,”let’s eat first. After you’re done, you can go to the door with Xia Yan. I’ll open the door for you.”
“Alright!” Gu Shi ‘an ate his rice as he spoke.
Xia Yan looked at Gu Shi ‘an’s impatient and smug expression. Not caring that he was all wet, she raised her elbow and placed it on his shoulder.
Xia Yan smiled and said teasingly,””Tsk tsk … Six-tails, are you coming out of the mountains?”
Jiang Xiao sat on the chair and rested his chin on his hand. He took a sip of milk and said,””Be careful when you go out. Listen to your commands, don’t be impulsive, and take care of yourself.
If you miss home, just tell the main body to open the door for you. I’ll make you a good meal when you come back. ”
Gu Shi ‘an’s action of eating rice froze slightly.
The more Xia Yan listened, the more she felt that something was amiss. She felt as if she was sending her son to school in another city.
