Chapter 526: You're not the same

"The Swift Wind Wolf is quite special; on this level, they are medium-or-above existences. With Shi San's current ability, dealing with them is difficult." Shi Er looked over at Brother Liu.

Others interact plenty, but this Brother Liu's gaze is always gloomy, as if he's constantly scheming something.

Although he has always been the captain of their unit, their interactions are the least.

She couldn't even understand Brother Liu, and didn't know why the teacher would keep such a person.

"It's difficult."

"If you want a carefree life, just slash your sword and commit suicide—wouldn't that be faster?"

He gave a cold laugh, his voice tinged with sarcasm, yet also a hint of helplessness.

The boss and they all dote too much on the few youngsters, making them forget how to grow up—do they really think the Land of Loss is a children's playground?

And his gaze also turned to the battlefield: Little Shi San, how long can you hold out? When will you finally beg for mercy?

He was somewhat eager to see what would happen.

Jiang Yun Chu's brow furrowed slightly, and at that moment she actually closed her eyes.

"Ten—" Shi Er's words hadn't even been shouted out when Old Liu interrupted them.

"Quiet." Old Liu's words not only interrupted Shi Er's speech, but also stopped Shi Er's steps about to rush forward.

"She is Shi San, she is the Shi San of the Land of Loss, you not being able to doesn't mean..."

"She cannot!"

Old Liu didn't get up, his expression still blank.

Shi Er was anxious, always ready to rush forward.

But...

At the center of the battle, Jiang Yun Chu now felt something else; what her eyes saw had become a disturbance, so she simply covered her eyes, plunging herself into darkness, relying entirely on her ears to judge the direction of the spirit beast's attack.

Here it comes...

Listening to that wind sound, it attacked swiftly.

Jiang Yun Chu's Soft Sword finally caught the Swift Wind Wolf's claw this time; the wolf's claw on her Soft Sword made a "Bang" sound, and then that gust of wind swiftly vanished.

"Blocked it?" Shi Er's eyes widened; she had just been preparing to rescue someone, never expecting Little Shi San to actually block it.

But she had clearly covered her eyes, seeing nothing—how could she block the spirit beast's attack?

Behind Shi Er, the person resembling a white-clothed scholar slightly twitched the corner of his mouth, but quickly returned to normal, then sat cross-legged, fully entering a cultivation state.

Shi Er looked ahead at the person who could already block the attack, then looked back at the person who had already sunk into cultivation.

She scratched her head, wondering if she had missed something.

How come it feels like Brother Liu and Little Shi San have formed some kind of tacit understanding?

Tacit understanding? It doesn't exist.

Jiang Yun Chu merely found the Swift Wind Wolf's rhythm, and has also found her own rhythm.

At first she could only passively dodge; later she discovered that the interference was her eyes, and after covering her eyes she could already block the Swift Wind Wolf's attack.

But the Swift Wind Wolf is simply too cunning, letting her never catch its shadow; repeated blocks made her brain race.

Here it comes...

A low murmur, in this first-level cave, there was not any sound.

The Swift Wind Wolf attacked again, but this time...

Not a block by the long sword, but a strange and illusory attack; Crimson Sky was like a red afterimage, hiding its color in this dim cave.

"Roar!"

The sword tip directly pierced the Swift Wind Wolf's neck; the wolf let out a miserable cry, and as it rolled on the ground, Jiang Yun Chu's long sword was like disembowelment, every motion flowing smoothly.

The Swift Wind Wolf merely flopped a few times, then directly ceased breathing.

Shi Er covered her mouth, widened her eyes, looking at Jiang Yun Chu's appearance, as if seeing an ant overpower an elephant?

Is this something a person can do?

Old Liu's eyes flashed, then he grabbed one with one hand, his legs' spiritual power continuously turning, quickly leaving this place; as he passed by, he also conveniently took away that Swift Wind Wolf's corpse.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Yun Chu somewhat didn't understand.

Old Liu gave her a deep look, rarely explaining: "Spirit beasts have extremely keen smell, especially for fresh blood."

"When you just killed the Swift Wind Wolf, it had already been disemboweled, its blood couldn't be concealed at all; we could only leave first."

Shi Er seemed not to know Brother Liu; usually she only says a few words, but this time it's the first she's said this much in one breath.

Brother Liu probably isn't going to...

Silencing witnesses?

Old Liu looked at Shi Er's expression, tapped her forehead, "Put away all the junk in your head!"

"Oh, you found out again?" Shi Er honestly replied, then shrugged her shoulders; every time Brother Liu seemed to know things in advance.

Jiang Yun Chu's mouth corner twitched; actually, no need for foresight—your words are literally written on your face.

But she turned her head, looking at Old Liu: "Brother Liu, where else are we going to kill spirit beasts? Take me with you."

Old Liu turned his head to look at her.

Shi Er also blankly turned her head to look at her.

The excitement in that gaze couldn't be concealed, a face of seriousness; it's obvious she's speaking the truth.

This pervert!

Old Liu however carried a bit of appreciation, "You really want to go?"

"Hmm." Jiang Yun Chu nodded, not minding her wounds at all; at this moment her robes were torn in many places, and one could see the scarlet color.

There are those with Swift Wind Wolves, but most are her own.

"No regrets?" Lao Liu still asked.

Jiang Yun Chu shook her head, "With Brother Lao Liu protecting me, I just need to keep my life."

Without experiencing life and death, how can one hone oneself?

Her previous journey had been too smooth, leaving her lacking a sense of danger.

This battle awakened the bloodlust she had long possessed; she was meant to lick blood on the blade.

"Alright, I'll take you there." Lao Liu stared deeply at her for a moment, then turned and left directly.

Watching the direction he went, Shi Er frowned and shouted, "Brother Lao Liu, it's too early."

Lao Liu looked at Shi Er, then at Xiao Shi San, "You're not the same."

"Come? If you're not afraid of death, follow me." Lao Liu left a sentence, then continued to leave.

Jiang Yun Chu took the mist off her shoulder, then placed it in Shi Er's hand, "Sister Shi Er, please look after it for a moment."

"Coming." She then hurriedly followed after.

Shi Er looked at the mist in her palm, then at the two figures, one ahead and one behind, already walking away, "Madmen, you're both mad!"

These two madmen! They actually went mad together.

You're not the same...

Not the same? In what way are you not the same?
