Shi Sheng cut off the stinger behind and pulled out the remaining stinger without frowning. He stabbed the Iron Sword into the ground, and the ground cracked like a spider web.
Invisible waves of air spread along the ground, forming a semicircular safe zone.
The flames burned outside, but they couldn't spread in, and even the temperature dropped.
The scorpion's poison was very strong, and Shi Sheng's limbs slid down weakly. Ying Sheng caught her and Ying Ji in time to prevent her from falling to the ground.
"Xiao Huan?" Ying Sheng put Ying Ji aside.
Shi Sheng took out some antidote pills from his space and ate them without caring about the side effects. Even if these pills were useless, they could buy him some time. The most important thing was to find Dog Two.
Dog Two didn't want to give it to him, but when he thought of the trauma of her dying because of a disagreement, Dog Two reluctantly gave Shi Sheng the pills.
…
Xia Ye stood high up, and the firelight formed clusters of flames under his eyes, like a prairie fire. Yellow sand flew all over the sky, blinding everyone's eyes.
When all the dust settled, Xia Ye landed on the ground with a few leaps.
A few people stood behind him at the same time. "They'll definitely be dead. Mr. Xia, don't worry."
A gust of hot wind blew past, and Xia Ye closed his eyes. The sand hit his face and scalded him. He took a deep breath and said, "Within a month, I want all the bases to be destroyed."
A few people looked at each other and bowed at the same time. "Yes."
Xia Ye turned around. The wind blew past, and a blurry figure could be seen in the distance. Xia Ye was shocked. He looked over and saw her black dress fluttering in the wind. A young girl was walking over.
The black shadow left an afterimage in the air. When Xia Ye reacted, she was already in front of him. The Iron Sword fell from above, and it grew bigger and bigger in his eyes.
Xia Ye was stunned. She didn't even say a word and attacked directly.
What was the difference between this and a sneak attack?
[…] This was a sneak attack in broad daylight.
Just as the Iron Sword was about to hit Shi Sheng, Xia Ye dodged to the side. The yellow sand under his feet flew into the air and entered Shi Sheng's field of vision. He took the opportunity to attack Shi Sheng's lower body, but he missed.
The person who was standing in front of him a moment ago had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Xia Ye quickly looked around. The slowly falling yellow sand rustled, but that black figure was nowhere to be seen.
"Mr. Xia, up there!!"
Someone shouted from behind. Xia Ye raised his head, and a light flashed in his eyes. That strange sword fell from above, and the cold air reached his head. His limbs instantly felt as heavy as lead.
Xiaye's heart sank. He could not die just like that.
With a thought, the ground suddenly sank, quickly widening the distance between him and the Shi Sheng. The sunken ground was filled with desert creatures. All sorts of desert creatures gathered together, and just looking at them made one's scalp tingle.
Shi Sheng stood at the edge and calmly took out two energy balls and threw them down.
Boom!
The ground trembled along with the rumbling sound, and the sand continued to fall.
Shi Sheng fanned himself with his hand, fanning away the sand that flew over. He frowned at the huge pit that had been blown up. Based on the way things were going, Xiaye was definitely not completely dead. She had to go up and finish him off.
Shi Sheng walked over to the edge of the pit. There was only sand inside. There was not even a desert lizard in sight, let alone Xiaye.
Did the male lead use Earthmeld?
Shi Sheng looked to the other side. Xiaye's people were standing there just now. When they saw Shi Sheng looking over, they all retreated.
Just behind them, the sand suddenly rose up. Xiaye was dragged out by someone. The others immediately helped and pulled him out, protecting Xiaye as they continued to retreat.
How could this woman be so scary?
Especially the thing that had exploded just now. It did not seem like explosives. They could feel the terrifying power even though they were so far away. Goosebumps rose all over their bodies.
It was too scary …
However, Shi Sheng was thinking that it was not Xiaye who knew Earthmeld. It was his subordinates who knew Earthmeld.
The expert was beside the protagonist.
How infuriating!
Where's I's sword!
"Retreat!"
They saw that the situation was not right and quickly retreated with Xiaye. One of them stayed behind and built a sand wall in the middle, blocking Shi Sheng's view. When Shi Sheng looked over, they were long gone.
Running away when you can't win? That's not the protagonist at all.
Come back if you dare!
Damn it, a bunch of idiots.
"Cough cough …" Shi Sheng's chest felt uncomfortable. He clutched his chest and coughed, his face turning pale and green.
Buttface f * cking tricked I again.
[Host, I've already told you very clearly just now. This medicine has side effects. Just bear with it.] The System's voice sounded like it was gloating.
It did it on purpose. So what?
We're all hurting each other anyway.
Shi Sheng took two deep breaths. "Just you wait, I."
[…] I'm so scared.
The System is going offline.
…
Ying Ji woke up on time after being unconscious for six hours. He had no idea that something major had happened while he was unconscious.
But when he saw Ying Sheng's dark skin, as if someone had tossed him into a fire and roasted him over and over again, he frowned. He took off his jacket and threw it over Ying Sheng's legs, covering a part of him that was about to fall apart.
Ying Sheng clutched his clothes, not daring to look at Ying Ji.
"Ying Sheng."
Ying Sheng stood up immediately. "Here."
Ying Ji supported himself against the wall and stood up, staring at Ying Sheng. "Why did you knock me out?"
His voice was still emotionless, but Ying Sheng knew that he was angry.
"I …" Ying Sheng hesitated, his dirty face full of guilt. "I'm sorry, Ying Ji. I didn't do it on purpose. I just … I just didn't know what to do."
If he didn't do anything, he could only watch as he was abandoned.
Ying Sheng and Ying Ji talked for a long time, but Shi Sheng didn't appear from start to end. She only appeared after the two finished talking, munching on sunflower seeds.
Ying Sheng lowered his head and walked past Shi Sheng, quickly disappearing from her sight.
"Are you okay?" Shi Sheng pinched Ying Ji's arm.
"Ying Sheng said that you're hurt?" Ying Ji held Shi Sheng's hand and looked her up and down. "Is it serious?"
Shi Sheng turned around. "Do I look like I'm hurt?"
"Don't lie to me."
Shi Sheng shrugged. She was indeed fine right now.
So, it wasn't a lie.
Ying Ji obviously didn't believe him, but after observing for a long time, he couldn't see anything wrong with Shi Sheng.
Ying Ji didn't mention a word about what Ying Sheng had done, so Shi Sheng didn't mention it either. He only told him about Xiaye.
The two of them were confused as to why Xiaye wanted to silence them.
Xiaye's actions were too different from a proper protagonist's style, so Shi Sheng couldn't guess what Xiaye's motive was.
"Could it be related to the things we saw before?" Shi Sheng was quick-witted. "I got the method of using Spiritual Power from you. Maybe I was afraid that you had some special ability, so I made the first move."
Ying Ji paused for a moment before replying, "Maybe."
