"Damn it!"

Jiang Xiao rarely cursed. Even when he said "Wo Cao," it was more of a verbal tic and didn't really carry a curse's weight.

But this one word, right now, was a full-bodied curse, expressing the resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart.

Why?

Because the Bait Jiang Xiao had finally encountered a pack of White Ghosts led by a White Ghost Witch.

Including rest time, Jiang Xiao had spent a full seven days searching the upper dimension.

The main body Jiang Xiao and Er Wei farmed Star Beads in the Holy Ruins, while the Bait Jiang Xiao kept trying to find the location of the first teleportation.

But things didn't go as planned.

The vast upper snowfield was not something the lower snowfield could compare to, not just in terms of size, but also because the other-dimensional creatures inside were incredibly powerful. On top of that, the Bait Jiang Xiao couldn't use Star Techniques. With all these factors combined, the Bait Jiang Xiao returned empty-handed time after time.

This time, he was "fortunate" enough to encounter the White Ghost Witch.

The three-meter-tall White Ghosts were already ferocious enough, but the three-and-a-half-meter-tall White Ghost Witch was like a lightning rod. It was thin, pale, and its wrinkled old face was particularly ugly. Yet, its eyes weren't muddy, and they were filled with violent rage.

"Come on," the Bait Jiang Xiao said, patting the back of his head. "One White Ghost is enough, why use a cannon to kill a mosquito?"

"Hiss..." The White Ghost Witch was bald. It twisted its body slightly and howled to the sky, fully displaying its savage nature. A group of sturdy White Ghosts roared madly and charged over!

The entire snowfield seemed to be shaking!

More than twenty huge White Ghosts actually ran with the momentum of the "Hundred White Ghosts Night Parade" from the lower dimension.

What a Jiang Xiao!

Unfazed by Mount Tai collapsing before him, unafraid of a roaring tiger behind him.

Facing the roaring army and the surging snowfield, Jiang Xiao took a deep breath...

Then, he slowly raised his right hand.

The international gesture: middle finger!

Jiang Xiao only had one thought in his mind: "So damn cool!"

Then his hand was bitten off by a White Ghost...

Jiang Xiao's mind instantly switched to another thought: "So damn painful!"

"Ha..." The Jiang Xiao in the lower dimension took a deep breath and punched a White Ghost hard in the stomach.

"Oof!" The White Ghost's abdomen was almost shattered by the punch. It spewed blood and flew backward, crashing into the stone wall of the Holy Ruins.

Damn it,

Let you bully my alt account!

White Ghost: 555...

"Er Wei, I tried my best," Jiang Xiao said, venting his anger and hiding behind Er Wei.

Seeing Jiang Xiao's somewhat dejected appearance, Er Wei felt bad.

Without hesitation, she picked up Jiang Xiao and carried him on her shoulder. "Let's go back."

As she spoke, she jumped onto the heads of the "White Ghost Ocean" and darted away.

A few minutes later, Jiang Xiao was thrown into the Night Watcher's cave by Er Wei.

The four Night Watchers on duty were used to this kind of situation. They looked at Jiang Xiao's dejected appearance and couldn't help but feel a sense of pity.

As the Night Watchers filed out, Er Wei knelt down and gently placed a hand on Jiang Xiao's shoulder. "Wait until your strength improves further."

Jiang Xiao drooped his head and replied, "If you can find a good excuse, report it to your superiors. If you can't, don't expose this information. We can't explain the source of this information."

Er Wei shook her head. "I don't need to report it. I know how it works. We absolutely cannot send anyone into the upper dimension for search and rescue. Too many bloody facts and unnecessary sacrifices have made us learn our lesson. We have set a dead rule: no one or team is allowed to enter the upper dimension."

Jiang Xiao sighed in his heart. That's why when Hai Tianqing mistakenly thought that Jiang Xiao's high-quality Star Techniques were obtained by his parents from the upper dimension, Hai Tianqing told Jiang Xiao that he could tell the truth. After all, Jiang Xiao's parents had been declared dead, so explaining the situation wouldn't implicate them.

Jiang Xiao nodded. He raised his hand, and a beam of blessing light fell down. The Saint Light, not too thick, should have maintained the appearance and effect of silver quality.

Jiang Xiao shuddered comfortably and lay down on his back.

Endless killing,

Endless being killed,

Will eventually forge me into an unyielding iron man!

Great! The iron man is sleepy now and wants to sleep... Uh, what if I also need to pee? Forget it, I'll hold it in. I'm already lying down, too lazy to move. I'll wait until I wake up.

How could an iron man like me get up because I want to pee?

Well... unless I can't hold it anymore.

Wow,

So uncomfortable.

Jiang Xiao opened his sleepy eyes, got up to go to the bathroom, but his feet slipped and he almost fell to the ground.

Jiang Xiao: ???

In his memory, he should be lying on the ground, why am I lying on the bed?

Is this Garden Community?

My home, my little house?

Wow, how long did I sleep?

The first thought in Jiang Xiao's mind was: I really am an iron man, holding it in until now.

Wait!

Jiang Xiao was shocked and looked at the clothes on his body.

Where's my military uniform?

Where's the blood on my body?

Who changed me into shorts and a tank top?

Who... who gave me a bath!?

Jiang Xiao's expression changed drastically. Could it be... could it be that I'm not clean anymore? Could it be that I've been defiled?

"Er Wei!?" Jiang Xiao ran out the door!

Halfway there, he turned back to fix the door...

"Where is she?" Jiang Xiao saw that there was no one in the living room. He looked in the hallway and found that there was no big cat stealing food inside, and he couldn't help but feel annoyed.

Are you going to leave without saying goodbye again?

"You're awake?" A slightly cold voice, with a hint of surprise, came from behind Jiang Xiao.

Jiang Xiao turned around and saw his own Miss Han Jiangxue.

Jiang Xiao suddenly had a strange feeling in his heart. Before he saw Han Jiangxue, he never thought he would miss her so much.

But, even though she was standing right in front of him, why did Jiang Xiao's longing start to flood?

Shouldn't this kind of emotion be felt after separation?

How strange.

"She sent me a text message with your phone, saying that your special training has come to an end." Han Jiangxue said, stepping forward, reaching out and tugging at Jiang Xiao's hair, and said, "Your hair is long, it's time for a haircut."

"Oh." Jiang Xiao responded casually and hugged Han Jiangxue.

Han Jiangxue's body stiffened. She struggled slightly, but couldn't break free, so her face turned red and she let him hug her.

"I might have some mental problems, a little sentimental, which doesn't fit my iron man's temperament," Jiang Xiao mumbled.

Han Jiangxue smiled and said, "Would a beating fix it?"

"Uh..." Jiang Xiao let go of Han Jiangxue, smiled, and asked curiously, "How long did I sleep? What's the date today?"

Han Jiangxue: "She notified me with your phone last night. It's August 18th, 10:40 AM. I don't know how long you slept, you..."

Han Jiangxue hesitated.

Jiang Xiao asked, "What's wrong?"

Han Jiangxue's cold face softened slightly, revealing a hint of pity. "You must be very tired, fighting, war... I saw the news. The situation on the Northwest Front is basically stable. I think you must have contributed to it."

I did make some contributions, and I am a little tired, but the key is dying more than ten times a day. No one can stand that.

Jiang Xiao couldn't help but shudder and didn't want to think about those unpleasant memories.

It seems that Han Jiangxue misunderstood the itinerary of the master and disciple, thinking that Jiang Xiao was so tired on the Northwest Front.

The opposite is true. Jiang Xiao was beaten and surrounded by a group of tall and strong White Ghosts at his own doorstep.

That scene was so miserable...

"They must be proud of you." Han Jiangxue withdrew her hands, put them behind her back, and looked at Jiang Xiao, her face overflowing with pride and self-satisfaction.

"Oh." Jiang Xiao scratched his head. He also knew who "they" were in Xiao Jiangxue's mouth, but the so-called "parents" only lived in his memory, and Jiang Xiao's feelings for them were very subtle.

"Wash up, I'll take you to get a haircut." Han Jiangxue said, "She said you need to integrate into the life of ordinary people. This special training was very difficult. She expressed her highest respect to you. She said she would ask for credit for you."

Jiang Xiao wasn't interested in merits and rewards. The real reward, Er Wei had already added to his Inner Vision Star Chart!

The platinum Azure Glow, platinum Endurance, platinum Blessing, and platinum Bait were not a joke. Which Star Sea stage king would accompany a Nebula stage kid to farm Star Beads?

If it weren't for her role as a Light Chaser to indulge his madness, how could Jiang Xiao's strength have improved so much?

Improving the quality of Blessing and Bait might take forever.

If it was still a gold quality Blessing, Jiang Xiao really didn't know whether to use this Star Technique, because the effect was too powerful.

But now it's good, Jiang Xiao has no worries anymore.

Platinum Blessing can automatically adjust the level, which allows Jiang Xiao to carry the whole school again at university...

Jiang Xiao plans to rest for a while to restore his mental state, and when the first year vacation comes, he will pull Er Wei over as a coolie to improve the quality of Bell Ling, Inheritance Seal, Attachment, and Dawn.

Jiang Xiao is not in a hurry. Today is August 18th, and there are still many days before school starts on September 1st, so he can have fun.

In addition, even if school starts, it is university life, not the bitter third year of high school.

Someone like Jiang Xiao, who has a future, and has already been booked, does not need to work so hard in college.

University is the stage to enjoy life leisurely. Jiang Xiao has temporarily escaped from Er Wei's clutches, and he is also preparing to relax his tense nerves.

But then again, other students should be very hardworking, right? Everything in school should be very competitive.

After all, the Imperial Capital Star Warrior University is one of the best universities in the country. Each year, it gathers less than a thousand students from all over the country, each of whom is a top talent. It is impossible for the competition not to be fierce.

Let these young people work hard,

I'll just be a quiet, Buddha-like handsome man...

"Okay, after we get back from the haircut, I'll show off my platinum Star Techniques to you." Jiang Xiao said casually. He and Han Jiangxue will be bound together as a team, so it is necessary for her to understand the effects of his upgraded Star Techniques in time.

Han Jiangxue smiled and said, "Hehe, okay."

Jiang Xiao turned around and went back to the house, but his footsteps suddenly stopped: "By the way."

Han Jiangxue: "Hmm?"

Jiang Xiao turned around and asked curiously, "When you came back, I was wearing this tank top and these shorts?"

Han Jiangxue looked curious: "Yeah, why?"

"Oh, oh, nothing." Jiang Xiao chuckled, and finally knew who the culprit was.

Han Jiangxue watched Jiang Xiao enter the house. She looked a little flustered, and her pretty white face was dyed with a blush, not knowing what she was thinking...
