Chapter 54 Don’t be afraid (1/2)

The bright rays of light from the cannon congealed and their target was only that little person along with his mother behind him.

Lan Xuanyu didn’t know what to do at this moment, he was merely a six-year-old child but there was a six-meter tall mecha in front of him. He fired an ice awl but when it landed on it, it merely bounced off without doing any damage at all.

Nan Cheng had already slumped to the ground. It was impossible for her to move, however, he didn’t retreat and he just simply stood there with his arms wide open with his lips pursed tightly. He was afraid, terrified, but he wanted to protect his mommy.

“Xuanyu, run, quick, run…” Nan Cheng called out weakly. Of course, she saw it too. She really hated herself for being so useless. If she was a combatant, she would have the power to fight back even when faced with a black mecha, but she could not, she really couldn’t fight!

Looking at that little figure of her son blocking her with his hands wide open, her heart was about to tear apart.

She only had one wish in her heart and that was to let her son run away quickly. She was willing to do whatever it takes.

But the bandits would not show any mercy and that Soul Guidance cannon still fired anyway.

“Blast——” There was a bright light from the mouth of the cannon and that glaring light caused Lan Xuanyu to shut his eyes instantly.

At this very moment, his mind completely turned blank but also at this moment, a very familiar reassuring voice resounded in his head.

“Don’t be afraid.”

Lan Xuanyu was stunned but he realized that he wasn’t hurt at all. Then, everything around him turned silent.

He lifted his head. The light was still glaring but that beam of light that was supposed to eradicate him appeared to stop in midair.

He heard no cries or screams any more. His surroundings turned silent and everyone stopped moving.

Lan Xuanyu turned his head to look at Nan Cheng and realized that his mother wasn’t moving too. There was a sense of terror in her eyes and she had one hand lifted in his direction like she wanted him to leave this place.

But everything was at a standstill at this moment, there wasn’t any sound, not even a whisper.

‘What happened? What is going on?’

Then, a delicate hand stroked his head gently. Lan Xuanyu turned around swiftly and saw someone wearing a mask. Her silver hair was glistening under that glaring light and her gaze was somewhat icy.

“Teacher Nana!” Lan Xuanyu exclaimed in surprise before his eyes reddened. He dived into Nana’s embrace immediately and cried, “They, they hurt Mommy! Teacher Nana, my mommy is injured.”

“Don’t cry, Xuanyu. It’s okay, everything will be fine with me around.” Nana patted his back lightly and soothed his frightened heart.

“You’re very brave. You stood in front of Mommy to protect her, you’re already a man.” Nana rubbed his back gently and calmed him down.

At this moment, she turned around to look at that black mecha as well as that ray of light.

Her gaze was cold and quiet. In the next instant, the surface of that mecha started to crack with a loud and crisp “ding”. The entire mecha was broken into pieces along with the driver and that beam of light that was about to swallow them. It all disappeared completely.

“Ding ding ding ding ding ding…” The crisp sounds kept resounding one after another and those bandits suspended in the air exploded and were annihilated one by one.

When Lan Xuanyu heard the noise, he wanted to look up but Nana covered his eyes with her palm and just hugged him in silence.
