Chapter 155: Sending You Away with My Toxic Healing Abilities

Unfortunately, it wasn’t a woman who brought Jiang Xiao that pain and discomfort, but a menacing Ape Ghoul.

However, Jiang Xiao was once again surrounded by dozens of Ape Ghouls.

Jiang Xiao held the sword with one hand and tried to stab the dying Ape Ghoul while painstakingly standing up.

He could see the numerous Ape Ghouls surrounding him, but they did not rush to attack, perhaps because of the lesson that they had learned previously. Instead, they chose to go slow and steady, before closing in on Jiang Xiao gradually.

“Okay, okay,” Jiang Xiao whispered softly while resting his weight on the sword that was inserted in the Ape Ghoul’s corpse. He then used another 30 Skill Points.

His heart bled, but there was nothing he could do. If he did not use the Skill Points, he would have long lost his life!

–

Xia Family Swordsmanship upgraded to Silver Quality Level 4!

Xia Family Swordsmanship upgraded to Silver Quality Level 5!

Xia Family Swordsmanship upgraded to Silver Quality Level 6!

Skill Points: 14

–

He broke through the middle stage of the Silver Quality and entered the later stage.

Come on!

If I can’t succeed, I’ll turn benevolent!

If all else fails, I’ll quit and repent!

Jiang Xiao looked at the Ape Ghouls while keeping his guard up. He knew that he had to take the initiative to attack. The Ape Ghouls wouldn’t leap towards him again without warning, because they had been continuously growing during the process of hunting.

Jiang Xiao quickly squeezed the Ape Ghoul corpse dry and absorbed all of its Star Power and vitality. Combined with Bell, he did have some substantial combat ability. At the back, the decoy Jiang Xiao who was keeping his guard up while holding onto his sword once again pressed his back against the real Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao flung his sword and threw the Ape Ghoul towards the front!

Charge!

Jiang Xiao dragged the giant wooden sword with his hands and rushed forward maniacally. He then roared all of a sudden. “The first move of the Xia Family Swordsmanship! Winning over someone’s sweetheart with a horizontal stab!”

…

Boom! Boom! Bang! Bang!

“Ah…”

Roar…

The heavy noises were accompanied by the incessant howling of the Ape Ghouls, who then flew out one after another.

Jiang Xiao stepped on the halo of Nostalgia while his sword was covered in Green Glow, accompanied by a faint purple light. The giant sword was swung around perfectly, and from time to time, a decoy Jiang Xiao would appear to disrupt the Ape Ghouls’ hearing.

Fleeing and fighting against the enemies required completely different mentalities.

Similarly, the fighting power and combat abilities exerted were also rather different.

Of course, it was undeniable that the Xia Family Swordsmanship that had broken through the middle stage of Silver Quality had given Jiang Xiao a huge bonus.

In the dense forest far away, a beautiful figure flew rapidly with anxiety written all over her face. She murmured continuously, “Xiaopi, Xiaopi, where are you?”

“Huh?” Xia Yan seemed to have heard the sounds of the Ape Ghouls roaring.

Are those… the sounds of fighting?

Xia Yan turned around and yelled, “Here, over here!”

While speaking, Xia Yan continued to rush in the direction of the noises. Within just ten seconds, Xia Yan suddenly stopped in her tracks and wondered, What am I seeing!?!

A familiar figure?

A figure surrounded by more than ten Ape Ghouls?

A… strong warrior pulling fancy tricks with his wooden knife?

Is that really the Xiaopi I used to know?

What kind of perfect swordsmanship is this?

Every part of his body is covered in Green Glow.

Forward lunge, sidestep, lowering shoulders, every simple yet unassuming little action of his was outrageously fluid and amazing. While avoiding the Ape Ghouls’ attacks, he also continuously hit them and smacked them away.

His swordsmanship and intricate footwork seemed perfectly natural and pleasing to the eye. Strictly speaking, it was not standard footwork and stance, but a set of moves that were specially created for double-handled swords.

Who taught him that?

Retreat, side thrust, leap, hack, roll over, cross, jab, forward step, lift…

What’s that?

A monkey stealing a peach?

Oh my god. Xia Yan shivered and thought, That Ape Ghoul has been flung away by you and is being manipulated by you in the air. Why can’t you stab somewhere else?

Why do you have to stab it there…

Staring at the Ape Ghoul flying up, Jiang Xiao leaped up and stabbed it before giving it a “millennium kill”.

Unfortunately, the repelling effects of Green Glow were much stronger than the strong strike effects. Hence, Jiang Xiao failed. Instead of using his sword to stab the Ape Ghouls’ bodies, he…

At the instant that the Ape Ghoul was stabbed in his lower body, it whistled like an arrow that had been shot!

The Ape Ghoul roared and covered its butt with both hands before flying high up the sky.

Piercing the monkey in the sky!?!

Jiang Xiao wanted to scratch his head out of habit, but the circumstance he was in didn’t allow him to do so at all. He turned around to look at the numerous Ape Ghouls beneath his feet that were glowering at him.

Don’t just blankly look at me. Hit me!

As Jiang Xiao began to get anxious, an Ape Ghoul finally rushed forth.

Easy does it!

Jiang Xiao looked at the Ape Ghoul with joy, after which he cast another ray of Blessing.

The Ape Ghoul winced and shuddered in the air. It then moaned strangely while its movements became peculiar and awkward.

With a heart full of excitement and a pair of trembling hands, I’ll send you away with a toxic potion!

Jiang Xiao’s body flipped in the air and he grabbed the sword with both hands, after which he stabbed an Ape Ghoul forcefully!

Since I can’t stab upwards, I’ll stab downwards.

Bang!

The moment the blade touched the head of the Ape Ghoul, it smashed open like a bomb while the numerous Ape Ghouls below began to retreat and get away one after another.

However, two rash Ape Ghouls refused to resign to fate. Instead, they tried to open their arms and catch the Ape Ghoul that was falling, only to fall onto the ground because of the high speed and excessive impact. Besides, a huge pit formed in the ground as well, because the ground could not withstand the force.

At the next moment, Jiang Xiao’s giant sword fell onto the ground heavily.

He stabbed it through two Ape Ghouls.

Jiang Xiao hurriedly climbed out of the pit and frantically stabbed the seven or eight Ape Ghouls after finding them.

Great, three monkeys down!

At the same time, the other Ape Ghoul in the air had also landed.

However, Jiang Xiao didn’t have time to raise his sword and point it at the spot that he had fallen, because the Ape Ghouls had begun surrounding him again.

Decoy, leave!

To his surprise, the decoy Jiang Xiao suddenly flew up in the air again after scurrying ten steps.

During the ruckus, Jiang Xiao immediately recovered from the shock and yelled anxiously, “Han Jiangxue, I’m the real one, I’m the real one!”

My team has finally returned!

These damned output attackers have finally arrived!

Huff…

A gust of Barren Wind swept past Jiang Xiao’s feet and he suddenly got a dizzy spell, after which he leaped directly into the dense forest. The tree branch was like a small whip that was continuously being lashed against Jiang Xiao’s body. The leaves also gave Jiang Xiao a sense of comfort by acting as a buffer and cushion.

With a loud thud, Jiang Xiao fell straight onto the ground and landed on his buttocks. Fortunately, he had two butt cheeks.

…

Jiang Xiao gasped in pain.

A ray of Blessing landed.

Finally, he decided to heal himself.

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they saw him.

Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao, whose clothes were tattered and torn, with sympathy and distress.

Not only was Jiang Xiao still alive, he actually managed to persist so far.

What made Han Jiangxue feel even more gratified and heartened was the fact that even though Jiang Xiao was badly injured after the fall, he was still holding the wooden sword tightly in his left hand and placing it at his side. There were also three Ape Ghoul corpses on the sword.

Regardless of what pain and hardship he had gone through, he was still full of faith in the end.

His willpower was still as firm as before.

He had never given up his hopes of survival.

While relishing in the wonderful feeling of Blessing, Jiang Xiao’s body fell backward gently and his eyes became glassed over. He lied on his back and looked up at the top. When he lowered his head, he met Han Jiangxue’s gaze.

Unfortunately, she was wearing military pants.

Han Jiangxue’s usually cold eyes were a little misted. She slowly knelt down and held Jiang Xiao’s head with both hands.

While feeling giddy, Jiang Xiao murmured, “I’m just a doctor.”

Han Jiangxue’s voice was trembling as she said softly, “I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”

Even Jiang Xiao, who was basking in the pleasure of Blessing, could clearly sense that there was something amiss with her attitude.

She was a cold and indifferent girl, but at this moment, she showed her softer side.

Jiang Xiao felt the chilliness of her palms on his face. Her hair cascaded down her back like a waterfall, covering her cheeks and revealing a small portion of her face and eyes.

Jiang Xiao shook his head to distract her, after which he said, “Had you guys been a few more seconds late, I would have given up and given Xia Yan an advantage.”

Han Jiangxue’s once-in-a-blue-moon look of distress finally vanished. Although she didn’t burst into tears, it was close.

Her radiant smile was warm enough to melt ice as she said, “Seems like you haven’t received enough of a beating.”

While in a daze, Jiang Xiao snapped his fingers.

He pointed his fingers at Han Jiangxue and nodded gently.

Watching his fluid movements, Han Jiangxue smiled silently and shook her head gently.
