Nine Star Burden

Chapter 134: Prestigious Figure

Han Jiangxue had always been using the Star Technique Barren Wind, and she had never once used fireballs rashly because she had seen how strong the female Archer was. Hence, knew that she could definitely dodge it.

When Han Jiangxue saw the result of Jiang Xiao’s attack, she got an idea and said, “Xiaopi, listen to my commands.”

“Huh?” Jiang Xiao didn’t have a good solution for dealing with the group of archers, and at this moment, he was trying his best to show what he could do by giving a Blessing to every female Archer that was trying to attack Li Weiyi.

After hearing Han Jiangxue’s order, he hurriedly focused all of his attention on the operation.

“9 o’clock, give a Blessing,” Han Jiangxue said as she threw out a fireball.

Jiang Xiao hurriedly looked to the left and cast a ray of Blessing.

The Blessing immediately landed on a female Archer…

She was in so much pleasure that her eyes turned glassy, while her demonic eyes that emitted a purple ray of light began to narrow as she squinted.

Her lithe body shuddered and she almost dropped her bow and arrow.

If it wasn’t for the habit she had developed after a long time, she would have really dropped it.

Just as she was floating, a large fireball fell and collided with her forcefully.

The fireball seemed to be explosive…

It burst open and crushed her head while exploding in flames.

Her body was still recovering under the light of Blessing, but her skull was already crushed.

“Damn it.” Xia Yan felt a sharp and piercing pain in her chest, after which specks of purple seemed to have crawled up her arm. She could feel her Star Power pouring out of her wound.

The leaking of Star Power made her feel like something important seemed to be leaving her body.

“Be careful!” Li Weiyi scurried towards Xia Yan, who had found the landing points of several female Archers. Using her advantage, she frantically attacked them as they descended from the sky. However, she ended up being stabbed in the arm by an arrow.

An arrow was stuck in Xia Yan’s arm, which was bleeding together with the leaking of Star Power, causing her to feel excruciating pain.

She leaned against the big tree and was defended by Li Weiyi’s Black Shield.

Xia Yan clenched her jaw and grabbed the arrow on her right arm before pulling it out forcefully with all her might.

The arrow with a triangular tip was pulled out of Xia Yan’s right arm together with her flesh and skin, forming a huge wound in her arm.

When the arrow was pulled out of her arm, the purple light slowly faded and the Star Power stopped leaking out of her arm.

With anger written all over her face, Xia Yan pressed her hand on the bloodstained camouflage uniform and heard a familiar sound.

“Two!” Jiang Xiao yelled.

Li Weiyi frantically released his shield.

Ring~ Ring~ Ring~

The flickering ray of medical light was shot accurately on Xia Yan’s body, after which it moved to Li Weiyi’s body. However, it didn’t get refracted back and instead continued to shuttle through both of them.

As soon as Li Weiyi picked up the shield, he heard Xia Yan saying, “Two.”

Li Weiyi’s Black Shield suddenly disappeared and Xia Yan pulled her sword out, throwing out another Flame Arc.

Whoosh.

The two female Archers dodged to the sides and continued to launch their arrows.

Li Weiyi hurriedly activated his Black Shield again, after which two arrows glowing with purple light struck the Black Shield.

“Xiaopi! We’ve killed those two!” Xia Yan flew into a rage and pushed Li Weiyi’s shoulder before saying, “Charge towards the one behind us with your shield. Don’t care about me.”

As soon as Jiang Xiao’s left hand landed, Han Jiangxue blasted another female Archer. After hearing Xia Yan’s call for help, he frantically raised his right arm again and a ray of light shrouded a female Archer’s body.

“At your ten o’clock,” Han Jiangxue said as she stood on Jiang Xiao’s right. Jiang Xiao hurriedly turned his head to look at her, stretched out his left hand, and cast a ray of medical light. Han Jiangxue’s fireball followed next.

Li Weiyi carried the shield and held the long-handled hammer in his hand, appearing extremely dejected.

He found out that he couldn’t catch up with the agile female Archers’ and the savages’ quick movements.

Charge at them?

How?

I can’t touch them!?!

Besides, the female Archer was extremely fast and familiar with the location. Hence, she could easily launch arrows while dodging.

Damn it, she actually knows how to climb up the tree?

She’s actually sneering?

You can chase me. If you catch me, I’ll make you…

“Ah~” A strange sound came from the spot in front of Li Weiyi.

Li Weiyi immediately got agitated and he realized that the female Archer in front of him that was crawling around like a monkey had tripped and fallen off the tree branch.

Without hesitation, Li Weiyi held his shield and dashed forth while holding onto the long-handled hammer which was full of Green Glow, after which he slammed it down forcefully.

Bang!

Jiang Xiao could tell that Li Weiyi was infuriated to have been played, and after obtaining the chance, he immediately went all out.

After the hammer slammed down, the female Archer’s body was driven into the ground together with her head.

Why are you so menacing and ruthless?

Did she hurt your heart?

While thinking to himself, Jiang Xiao frantically yelled, “Wait a while, let me absorb a Star Bead.”

“No need.” Xia Yan’s voice could be heard together with the swaying of the giant sword. The two female Archers were instantly split in half by Xia Yan’s sword.

“Five have escaped,” Han Jiangxue said coldly.

Five?

We fought so intensely and yet, she still has the mood to count how many ran away?

The truth proved that Han Jiangxue was indeed in the mood for it.

Three female Archers had run away together with two savages.

In reality, one of the savages also planned to flee, but Li Weiyi managed to stop him.

“Xiaopi, well done. I’ll give you an extra chicken leg when we go back,” Xia Yan said triumphantly. She looked as if she had taken all revenge as she stared at the female savages that had been ripped apart.

“I’ll give you one too,” Li Weiyi said.

Jiang Xiao scratched his head and glanced at Han Jiangxue.

Han Jiangxue nodded gently and strode towards the still warm corpse.

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

I’m asking, are you going to give me a chicken leg!?!

I wasn’t asking for your approval!

Why are you nodding?

I’m not a child, I don’t need my parents’ approval before I can pack things up.

I’ve already done a good job at healing, the people in this trade should be calling me “Daddy”. Why are you still treating me like your younger brother?

Jiang Xiao felt aggrieved, but he did not say it out loud.

Jiang Xiao scurried towards the corpse of the female Archer and planned to use the Star Bead to make up for the emotional trauma that he had suffered.

“I’m sure you guys are all clear and aware of the Star Techniques of those savages. If you don’t want to waste your star slots, don’t use their Star Beads to replenish your Star Power,” said Han Jiangxue.

Uh…

That was indeed a problem. Once a Star Technique was embellished in his Star Map, he could never throw it away.

For normal Awakened, there would be a chance for them to absorb the Star Technique of a certain Star Bead if they were to use it to replenish Star Power.

It was different for Jiang Xiao because he had an internal Star Map.

He could absorb whatever he wanted and simply filter out the rest that he didn’t want to.

Of course, Jiang Xiao did not plan to voice that out.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao crouched in front of the corpse of a female Archer, feeling rather flustered. After they died, the purple glow in their eyes vanished, making them look more like humans.

Jiang Xiao gripped the dagger tightly in his hand and knew that he had to clear this level. He turned the corpse of the female Archer over and allowed her to lie on her stomach, with the back of her head facing him.

Deceiving himself and others, Jiang Xiao still stabbed the corpse in the end.

In the dense forest in the distance, Hai Tianqing looked at the four students who all had different expressions, after which he took a deep breath and heaved a sigh of relief.

The arsenal was really not a suitable training venue for kids their age.

Jiang Xiao finally found the bloodstained Star Bead in the skull…
