Chapter 006: Bloodthirsty Lynx (2)
Su Jian was well aware of Xiao Ning's exceptional abilities. Just along the way, had it not been for Xiao Ning's interventions several times, he, Su Jian, would have already died several times over.
Although Xiao Ning is merely a school lieutenant and not yet at the general level, he is just in his early twenties and has managed to rise to the position of school lieutenant in the formidable Azure Dragon Army, where strong individuals abound, which speaks volumes about his exceptional capabilities
The young warrior dressed in deep blue dragon scale armor is named Xiao Ning, a lieutenant of the Azure Dragon Army of Huaxia, and also the leader of this operation
"Shut up! Where are you thinking?" Xiao Ning shouted, "What I mean is, the Bloodthirsty Fierce Cat is a rare dark-type demon beast even in the Silent Forest. It absorbs the brilliance of the Star Sea Crystal River from the Celestial Dome, condensing it into dark-type crystal essence, which is quite valuable. What I find regrettable is that I just checked, and there are no crystal essences formed in the corpse of this fierce cat."
Su Jian compared himself and felt that Xiao Ning was like a dazzling star in the sky. Not only was he powerful in martial arts, but more importantly, he treated someone of Su Jian's status with equal respect.
In a moment of panic, Su Jian seemed to have an illusion, as if a beam of light flashed past the position of the crystal chain pendant on his chest
However, this light was soon overwhelmed by a brilliant flash of a blade!
In simple terms, individuals like Xiao Ning are born to be leaders
"Brother Xiao—" Upon seeing this person, Su Jian felt both grateful and embarrassed
The attack was so sudden and so close that Su Jian could even immediately smell a foul odor
In a state of wild imagination, Su Jian suddenly felt a branch in front of him move violently; before he could react, he saw a shadow pounce towards him from the air
Before Su Jian could react, a loud "thud" was heard, and in an instant, a spray of blood rained down before his eyes, accompanied by an incredibly foul stench.
Unfortunately, even in the face of the admired and envied savior, Su Jian expressed his dissatisfaction, saying, "Lord Xiao, are you suggesting that this dead cat should be quicker and have sharper teeth to bite through my neck in one go for it to be considered unfortunate? Lord Xiao, no matter what, we are comrades after all!"
Completed! This is now a failure!
Su Jian exerted all his strength to dodge to the side, but even he knew that with his current mediocre skills, this dodge would only serve to slightly shift the position of his corpse later on
"Su Jian! What are you daydreaming about?" A stern shout came as a remarkably valiant young soldier stepped out from behind Su Jian.
Moreover, with Xiao Ning's background from the highest official academy of the Huaxia Nation, the Dragon-Slaying Academy, the combination of these two factors makes her a rising star with limitless potential
So it was like this—Su Jian wanted to say more, but he saw a nearby bronze badge guard raise his hand and suddenly make a gesture for silence
"This is a Bloodthirsty Lynx." After reprimanding Su Jian, Xiao Ning glanced at the cat demon's corpse split in half on the ground and said in a low voice, "Little Su, consider yourself lucky. This Bloodthirsty Lynx is usually extremely fast; I don't know why it suddenly paused just now—what a pity!"
However, the temporary worker Su Jian was completely unaware of the dangers of this task. After enduring the first four or five miles, he even humorously pondered: "I am already sixteen years old; if I were to die here, would it be considered an early death or a premature demise?"
