Chapter 40 Reunion with Jiang Shaoxu
Upon recognizing the voice of the person calling for help, Hua Yu didn't bother to explain anything to Zhang Ying and the others. He put on his magic armor and headed forward.
"Hey kid, what are you doing?"
Zhang Ying was startled and quickly reached out to grab Hua Yu's clothes, trying to stop him.
However, just as his hand was about to grab Hua Yu's clothes, a spatial tremor suddenly appeared, shaking his hand away.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, Hua Yu's figure had already disappeared from everyone's sight.
"Military Intelligence Bureau, this?"
"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and chase after them!"
-
Deep inside the cave.
This area is much more open, unlike the narrow space in front. The cave is surrounded by many strangely shaped stones.
The air was filled with a damp smell, and if you paid close attention, you would find that this smell was coming from the stones.
"Bang!"
A loud crash was heard.
A ferocious, enormous python was crashing into a triangular water mirror in front of it.
The python was enormous, with brown skin all over its body, which looked as if it were pieced together from huge rocks. Even its head was a rock head, and its vertical pupils were staring intently at Jiang Shaoxu in the triangular water mirror.
Inside the triangular water mirror, Jiang Shaoxu stood there in tattered clothes, her face pale and slightly purple, biting her lip.
She felt extremely unlucky. She had traveled all the way south from such a far place and was finally about to find the person when a hunting team told her that there was a natural water-protecting stone here. Since she loved adventure, she followed the hunting team into the cave.
There really were those natural water-protecting stones deep in the cave, but before they could start mining them, a giant rock serpent of the commander level suddenly appeared.
In just one exchange, the entire hunter team was wiped out. If she hadn't had a lot of life-saving magic items, she probably would have died in the mouth of the giant rock snake just like them.
Although she was already proud that she could hold out for a while against a leader-level demon.
But Jiang Shaoxu was still somewhat desperate. Her proud mental abilities were no match for the irritable commander in front of her, and her magic power was about to run out. Once the triangular water mirror's defense disappeared, she would have no choice but to wait to die on the spot.
What you worry about most is what will happen to you.
At this moment, her magical energy was exhausted.
The triangular water mirror's defensive shield disappeared, and a glint of light flashed in the eyes of the giant rock serpent.
It's now!
It opened its enormous mouth and headed toward the delicate human woman. It knew nothing of tenderness or pity; in its dictionary, there was only the desire to feast.
As she got closer, Jiang Shaoxu could smell the foul odor emanating from the giant rock snake's mouth. A terrifying chill crept into her body, and she closed her eyes in despair, a silver-haired boy's image flashing through her mind.
She was so close to seeing him!
Jiang Shaoxu couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Since she had already come all this way, why didn't she go find him first? Now, it's all over, and she'll never have the chance to see him again.
"Goodbye, you bastard who stole my first kiss," Jiang Shaoxu murmured, a single, glistening tear sliding down her cheek.
"Soul-soul!"
"A resounding thud!"
"Get out of my way!" a furious roar suddenly rang out.
Immediately afterwards, waves of sound swept in, creating ripples in the air.
When they appeared near the Giant Rock Serpent, a sudden, intense tremor erupted, followed by a creaking sound in the cave.
"Buzz~~~~~"
The enormous sound seemed to penetrate the depths of one's soul. The Giant Rock Serpent shook its head, and then its massive body suddenly felt a tremendous force strike it, hurling it into the distance.
Although Jiang Shaoxu did not hear the trembling sound, she had just vaguely heard a human voice, and the stench in front of her had disappeared, so she realized that someone had come to rescue her.
She couldn't help but smile and slowly opened her eyes, only to see a young man with long silver hair standing in front of her.
With just one glance, Jiang Shaoxu's heart skipped a beat, her eyes widened, and tears streamed down her face involuntarily.
It's him!
It's really him!
Jiang Shaoxu threw herself into the silver-haired youth's arms, gently pounding his body with her fists, and cried out, "Bastard, bastard, why did you run away?"
"Ugh~~~"
The fallen giant rock serpent rose and roared angrily before charging furiously towards the man and woman who were embracing each other.
Hua Yu raised his right hand and snapped his fingers lightly. A strange white light flashed in his eyes. Then, he slowly released his right hand and placed it on Jiang Shaoxu's back, patting it gently.
The soul-piercing, deadly sound caused the Giant Rock Serpent to suddenly stop moving, and then its massive body crashed down.
A pale green ball of light slowly flew out from its body.
Even as it closed its eyes, it couldn't understand why those two who were showing off their love didn't die as quickly as it did.
The tremendous commotion behind them seemed oblivious to Jiang Shaoxu's ears. Hua Yu shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Aren't you afraid of that big guy behind us?"
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. You said you would protect me." Jiang Shaoxu buried her head in Hua Yu's arms and shook it like a rattle.
She did feel despair and fear when she faced death, but now that she saw Hua Yu and was nestled in his arms, she was no longer afraid of anything.
Moreover, in her mind-based perception, that violent aura had completely disappeared.
Both of them have distinctive features: Jiang Shaoxu has a beauty mark on the corner of her mouth, and Hua Yu has naturally silver hair.
Despite not having seen each other for six years, the two recognized each other the moment they met.
Hua Yu looked at Jiang Shaoxu in his arms. This little girl was even more beautiful than before. Most importantly, she had fully developed. When she pounced on him just now, it was like she was carrying a baby and bumping into him. Hua Yu wanted to lean back slightly, but Jiang Shaoxu held him tightly and wouldn't let him leave.
Got it!
If you can't avoid it, then experience it for yourself.
Hua Yu picked up Jiang Shaoxu and carried her out of the cave.
He had already killed the leader-level demon in the cave, and their mission was now complete; it was time to go back.
Suddenly being picked up in a princess carry, Jiang Shaoxu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she whispered, "Brother Xiaoyu, wait, there's a water-protecting stone over there."
"Hmm?" Hua Yu turned his head and saw that there were indeed many strangely shaped stones behind him, which were the water-protecting stones that Jiang Shaoxu had mentioned.
Water-protecting stone is the best material for making water-based defensive magical tools. This raw material for magical tools, which can save lives in critical moments, can be sold as a high-level item on the market. Hua Yu did not hesitate to use his spatial power to temporarily store it away, and then left directly.
Before long, Hua Yu encountered Zhang Ying and his group coming towards him.
Upon seeing the woman in Hua Yu's arms, everyone couldn't help but be taken aback.
Well.
Was this guy rushing so fast just to be a hero and save a damsel in distress?
But it seems to be quite effective.
"Hua Yu, where's the commander?"
"He's dead."
"what!"
