Chapter 136: Daddy’s Heart Is Broken
Chapter 136: Daddy’s Heart Is Broken
The girls panicked and subconsciously turned around before retreating.
The moment the two of them retreated, a spirit shuttled through them but dissipated in the air before it even traveled five meters.
At the moment the spirit disappeared, it began shrieking loudly like a ghost.
—Silver Quality Star Technique, Corpse Spirit!
That meant that there was a male Savage Sorcerer!
Jiang Xiao didn’t have any means to attack. Hence, when he saw the spirit, he subconsciously cast the ray of Blessing on the spirit, but there seemed to be no effect.
Jiang Xiao did not think that the dissipation of the spirit was because of his own Blessing.
Now that he thought about it, he felt that the spirit was extremely terrifying and hair-raising.
The spirit was not in the form of a human and instead, it was like a pale, white ghost that did not have a torso or any limbs. The spirit was dragging a long white rope behind him that seemed to be forming a long line.
The ghost had a daunting face that was twisted and completely pale.
The shrilling sounds of the spirit screaming was extremely ear-piercing and soul-wrenching.
This Star Technique seems to have the effect of shocking the heart?
“2-2!” Han Jiangxue frantically asked.
The four people were divided into two teams that were facing each other and continuously leaning towards their peers.

“Have you found it yet?” Li Weiyi asked loudly, no longer bothered to be a “caring brother”.
“Shut up, I’m looking for it.” Xia Yan snapped, sounding rather infuriated. It was not because she was being urged by Li Weiyi but because someone launched a sneak attack on her.
“Don’t panic. Five minutes have passed and it’s still staying calm. At least, that means that there isn’t a female Archer amongst them,” Jiang Xiao said all of a sudden, giving the three of them a great shock.
Why does it sound so reasonable?
The four of them continuously leaned closer together and Jiang Xiao looked around while keeping his guard up. In this dense and lush forest, there were plenty of crops and vegetation in the area. Who knew where those experienced hunters were hiding?
Jiang Xiao could not tell or see any movements at all.
That was terrible.
Bang!
Just as the four of them continuously leaned closer towards each other, a corpse suddenly exploded.
Yes, when Xia Yan took a step back and stepped on the palm of a female Archer, the gruesomely destroyed corpse immediately exploded!
An overwhelming odor of blood filled the air as blood splattered all over... literally.
The mushed up flesh and blood splashed all over the sky and spattered like raindrops on Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue.
However, the real lethal blow was the impact of the corpse’s explosion.
Han Jiangxue’s and Xia Yan’s bodies were blown forward, causing them to feel dizzy. Xia Yan’s boots and trousers were all torn and her flesh was badly mangled.
Regardless of whether or not Xia Yan lost her mobility, her injured calf hindered her from moving.
Jiang Xiao panicked and turned around frantically, only to see a corpse along the route that he and Li Weiyi were retreating!
Jiang Xiao hurriedly grabbed Li Weiyi’s body and raised it high in the sky while a white ray of light formed in his palm. It then bounced out and darted towards Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan.
Xia Yan was extremely giddy because of the explosion and when she landed on the ground, she finally felt the pain coming from her calf.
Han Jiangxue at the side was also severely blasted as her clothes became slightly tattered and she shook her head forcefully, trying to wake herself up, only to see the corpse of the female Archer several meters away from her.
Han Jiangxue’s eyes narrowed, and she frantically reached a hand to throw a shot of Barren Wind at the female Archer’s corpse, causing it to fly away.
She could hear Xia Yan gritting her teeth in pain, but she could no longer be bothered to look out for her companion because she knew what the most important thing to do now was.
The female Archer’s body was blown away again.
“Uh...” Xia Yan let out a moan, though Han Jiangxue had no idea if it was because of pain or pleasure. The ray of Blessing landed on her body.
She felt as if she was soaking in a warm and comfortable hot spring while having a giddy spell. While in a daze, she seemed to hear the indistinct sounds of a bell ringing in the sky.
When Xia Yan’s vision finally cleared up and the glow in her glassy eyes was restored, the wound on her exposed calf, beneath the tattered pants, had already been healed and new flesh had grown out. It was now fair and rosy like it used to be.
Does it hurt?
I won’t let you feel any pain for now.
I’ll let you feel comfortable and soothing.
While soaking in the wonderful hot spring, your wounds have also been completely healed while the crisp sounds of “Bell” filled the air.
It’s a one-stop service.
Where else can you find such a huge healer?
That was also the reason why the Medical Awakened were so precious.
If one lacked Star Power during a battle, he or she would be able to rapidly replenish Star Power by absorbing Star Beads.
Star Beads could be thought of as some sort of magic potion, but there were no life-prolonging potions in this word. Hence, Medical Awakened were extremely useful.
Xia Yan moved her ankles around as if she had never been injured.
Finally, the enemies could not take it any longer and there were no longer any bloody explosions. However, numerous spirits popped up and leaped out from the corpses of the female Archers!
They roared and howled, appearing as horrifying and gruesome as ghosts as they charged towards the two of them.
While evading side to side, the two of them continuously retreated.
All of a sudden, Han Jiangxue’s body froze.
Finally, a menacing spirit dashed into her body and penetrated through it before coming out of the other side, screaming and shrieking in a deafening voice. It then disappeared in the air.
“Xuexue.” Xia Yan panicked and grabbed Han Jiangxue’s arm anxiously before sprinting backward together with her.
At this moment, Han Jiangxue felt like cold water had been splashed against her feet. Shuddering, her soul was filled with anxiety.
Han Jiangxue tried her best to suppress her emotions and her chattering teeth while closing her eyes and telling herself, Han Jiangxue, you’re not that weak and fragile. These aren’t the emotions that you should be feeling.
No, you shouldn’t be behaving this way.
Where is your dutifulness?
Where is your sense of responsibility?
You still have to support him. You can’t back out...
She seemed to have lost control of her body as she realized that she was struggling and shoving Xia Yan away. She even used Barren Wind to blow Xia Yan away.
However, Xia Yan hugged her desperately and refused to let go.
The two of them formed a trajectory in the air in the shape of a parabola, before finally falling onto the ground forcefully. They then rolled forwards and glided for two or three meters. Did they finally get trampled on?
Han Jiangxue still refused to give up and continued to struggle maniacally. Due to the fact that they had rolled around, her body was pressed against Xia Yan’s and she shoved Xia Yan frantically in a bid to break free of her control.
Xia Yan grasped Han Jiangxue’s wrist with both hands—in terms of brute force, she was much stronger. Hence, she could suppress Han Jiangxue with complete ease.
Jiang Xiao stepped on Han Jiangxue’s spine while Xia Yan, whom she was crushing, yelled, “She’s gone mad!”
“No, she hasn’t,” Jiang Xiao said as a ray of Blessing landed from the sky and was cast on Han Jiangxue’s body.
Han Jiangxue, who was struggling violently, stopped abruptly as her body grew weak and she fell on Xia Yan, after which she rested her head on Xia Yan’s soft bosom.
Xia Yan was slightly stunned, and the ray of Blessing had also spread to her, causing her to forget to enjoy this rare opportunity of Han Jiangxue laying on her.
All of a sudden, she heard Jiang Xiao question sternly, “Have you forgotten all the information in the books?
“Don’t disturb those who have their rationality messed up by corpses. Simply stay by their sides for a few seconds and they’ll automatically be free of negative emotions.” Jiang Xiao continued, “Pulling her and grabbing her will only cause her mind and body to be in a mess. You’ll be adding fuel to the fire.”
“Yes, you’re right, Xiaopi, my Xiaopi...” Xia Yan murmured with her eyes glassed over.
Jiang Xiao leaned over and picked up the feeble and well-behaved Han Jiangxue. He then kicked Xia Yan’s calf and said, “Get up, Daddy was so worried about you two.”
“Huh?” Han Jiangxue recovered from the shock and struggled to get a grip on herself and regain her balance. Blushing, she gazed at Jiang Xiao calmly.
“I mean, I’m your nanny,” Jiang Xiao said awkwardly as he hurriedly tried to change the subject. “One corpse can only summon one spirit. There are no more corpses here. The situation has become better.”
Xia Yan also recovered from the effects of Blessing and sat up straight while pointing at Jiang Xiao. “I treat you as my younger brother and yet, you want to be the father?”
Can a nanny who doesn’t want to be a daddy be a good one?
Uh, wait a minute, it’s a little confusing...
