Chapter 30: A Fierce Battle (2/2)

“Allow ive you all a word of advice” Duan Li stood before his four opponents Without a hint of fear, he raised his tang dao and, as before, he laughed with overbearing arrogance “My task is to hunt survivors within twenty-four hours; so long as et isn’t dead, I will not die!”

Luo Jian listened to his words and re “What you mean to say is that Ah Lan really isn’t dead?”

Duan Li replied, “Rest assured When I’uys, he’ll be ood that he wasn’t dead At least it gave Luo Jian a little peace of mind Yet, he couldn’t help but frown afterwards His priority at this moment was to dispose of this Duan Li, but if it was true that Duan Li wouldn’t die, then this matter became all thedarker; eventually, the entire forest would be painted in pitch-black They only had a period of twenty-four hours; daas stillLuo Jian anxiously glanced at the nearby Xing Yan and inwardly grinded his teeth He couldn’t delay any longer He had to take his fa Yan couldn’t care soit safely each time Soon after, he threw the book to Luo Jian, smoothly extracted his knife, and headed towards Duan Li

Duan Li retreated half a step, dragged the tip of his sword backwards, and leaned forward, fixing his attention on Xing Yan, watching hied the distance and deter the battle to his instincts, the only thing left was an intense struggle between life and death

Luo Jian didn’t participate in the battle between Duan Li and Xing Yan because the sky was getting darker, the forest was beco more desolate and quiet, and the swords had no eyes [to distinguish friend froht would only create a an to search all over the place for Feng Yu Lan with 13 and 14 Yet, despite circling the battlefield a few ti Yu Lan

On another hand, the clash between Xing Yan and Duan Li became fiercer by the second They fully demonstrated the power of non-humans and swiftly bounded between trees At his current level, Luo Jian couldn’t visibly see the irregular actions of these two, and because Luo Jian couldn’t see very well, he didn’t even feel like watching any longer However, the duel between these two anomalies was too intense and violent At this time, Duan Li parried Xin Yan’s attack with his own knife then ferociously kicked him He flew back and, as fortune would have it, he just had to fall directly in front of Luo Jian For Xing Yan, this was nothing Apart frohtly dirtied clothes, he was iot up, he caught sight of Luo Jian standing before hilanced at Duan Li as far away There was still quite soht for a second, then strode towards Luo Jian Luo Jian recoiled in fright; cowering in fear, he warily stared at hi Yan stretched out his hand and pressed down on Luo Jian’s shoulder Luo Jian’s face flushed red Standing rigidly, he gazed at Xing Yan’s face that was slowlyin

The hell is this guy doing?! Isn’t he supposed to be in a fierce battle?! Why is he not going back to the battlefield and instead doing so like this to me!! Is this really a true man? This is obviously unscientific ah! Luo Jian silently cursed in his heart But it wasn’t long before a soft sensation on his lipsYan see Luo Jian’s waist, never planning to let go even after death It was only after Duan Li approached that he reluctantly loosened his hold and, in the end, he gently nipped Luo Jian’s chin

Luo Jian was led Luo Jian didn’t recover fro Yan released hi bloith Duan Li He then suddenly recalled Duan Li’s words Was it really true that Stalkers were completely emptied of human emotions? Were they truly entirely stripped of their will?

If what Duan Li said was true, then how could Xing Yan’s behavior be explained?

Luo Jian sighed regretfully At this stage, it was better to be pragmatic and act per circumstances He himself was powerless; he currently had no ti Yu Lan first

Of course, unexpected occurrences were always bound to happen, and a after falling asleep inside the tree hole His headache was becoer the creature su down of one’s spirit beca Yu Lan felt as if his head was about to explode; he couldn’t bear such agony

Soon after, he woke up and found himself in a narrow hole inside a tree; he was unsettled HisFroly clawed at the tree bark, generating a faint, scratching noise The ensuing sound wasn’t at all loud, but Luo Jian quickly detected it Thereupon, Luo Jian scae tree; he began to observe the vines twined around the tree

“These vines are big enough to threaten people” Luo Jian assessed, tapping on his chin which was bitten by the Stalker

“Wah wah—” Feng Yu Lan started bawling

“Ah Lan?” Luo Jian recognized Feng Yu Lan’s voice from the opposite side of the vines

“Ah Jian, you finally came! I waited forever, until the end of the world!” Upon discovering soan playing around

“Don’t worry The world hasn’t ended yet” Luo Jian was relieved after hearing Feng Yu Lan light tone I off the vines on the tree Not even a second passed when he suddenly heard Feng Yu Lan speak from inside the tree hole, “Ah Jian, are there a lot of vines out there?”

“Yes How’d you know that…?”

“Don’t touch those vines!” Luo Jian didn’t even get to finish his sentence before he was interrupted by Feng Yu Lan Feng Yu Lan yelled, “Don’t touch the Yu Lan was, inevitably, too late in saying this Luo Jian, who had already touched the vines, still didn’t knoas going on when, out of nowhere, those vines seemed to have come to life It suddenly resembled so around in a flurry! Rapidly coiling around Luo Jian’s body, it i with me!” Luo Jian shouted profanely

Inside the tree hole, Feng Yu Lan instantly knehat happened after hearing hihed and added, “I also have a couple of vines here At first I thought it was a snake that stillitself around my body”
