Chapter 1087 Rare Confusion

Chapter 749 To the Alliance Leader to9494, an Extra Chapter

Wu Haoyang silently watched Jiang Xiao, watching the star techniques released from his hands, but did not disturb him.

Under the sprinkling of light rain, although these ordinary people were still hungry, their condition quickly recovered, and their bodies were being repaired in all aspects.

Wu Haoyang watched the rapidly reddening faces of the crowd, but felt that something was wrong. Why were there two missing?

Wu Haoyang tugged at Li Juan beside him: "Li Juan."

"Ah?" Li Juan turned to look at Wu Haoyang.

"The number doesn't match. What was the name of that man with glasses... and another one, that..." Wu Haoyang tried his best to search for the appearance of the two men in his mind.

Even though Wu Haoyang personally rescued these people, after escorting them back, Wu Haoyang searched around for other refugees. His task was heavy, and even now, he couldn't remember all the names of these 30-plus people.

Hearing this, Li Juan remained silent.

Jiang Xiao turned his head and frowned slightly.

Because he noticed the complex expression on Li Juan's face.

It was hard to imagine such a complex expression appearing on the face of a 16 or 17-year-old child, so complex that... Jiang Xiao couldn't even understand it.

Guilt? Annoyance? Fear?

What did it all mean?

To Wu Haoyang's surprise, not only did Li Juan, who was usually obedient, not respond, but even these civilians did not respond.

As Wu Haoyang's gaze swept over them, people turned their eyes away.

Wu Haoyang frowned and said, "What's going on?"

Silence, endless silence...

"Bro, Brother Haoyang..." Li Juan stammered, but before he could say anything, an old man curled up on the ground suddenly said, "Xiao Wu."

"Hmm?" Wu Haoyang turned to look at the old man.

The old man's dry lips trembled slightly and said, "Xiao Li made his own choice to protect all of us."

Hearing this, Wu Haoyang was stunned.

It seemed that... in the few days he was away, something had happened in this dark cellar?

While Jiang Xiao was releasing the Blessing Light Rain, his eyes quietly turned into Jiu Xing (Nine Star) Eyes.

What exactly happened?

What caused a child to reveal such a complex expression?

In the time rewind, Jiang Xiao discovered that one hour before he and Wu Haoyang returned, this group of people was still eating "roasted meat."

Roasted meat, sounded like a delicious word.

However, the meat that people ate was the meat of the Icebound Walker.

In the constantly rewinding scene, Jiang Xiao also saw Li Juan holding the roasted meat, rewinding back to the frozen soil by the wall, and personally "pressing" the meat onto the corpse of the Icebound Walker.

...

Time rewound to last night, and Jiang Xiao finally saw the two missing men!

Jiang Xiao frowned slightly, rewound a large segment of time, and then chose "play" normally.

In the silent and dim cellar, the man with parted hair and glasses, and another middle-aged man, quietly got up and approached Li Juan, as if they were plotting something.

The flickering bonfire reflected the two men's desperate attempts to persuade, and also reflected the unbelievable expression on Li Juan's face.

Through the two men's lip movements, Jiang Xiao seemed to read out some key words.

"Time to move," "Not enough food," "Let's go," "These people are a burden," "Hold us back"...

Jiang Xiao silently watched all of this, standing in the world of time rewind, thinking about the group of old, weak, sick, and disabled in the cellar, and he already understood something.

Judging from Li Juan's reaction, he obviously disagreed with the two men's proposal, but... after refusing, did something unexpected happen?

The two men seemed to be trying their best to keep their voices down, excitedly arguing and persuading, but Li Juan simply stood up, picked up a steel basin, and went out to collect snow water.

The two men glanced at each other dejectedly, and the accident happened 20 minutes later.

Might as well go all the way?

These two really treated Li Juan as a child, kneading him at will, wanting to do it first and report later?

Were they sure that Li Juan would eventually soften, no matter what they did, and still provide protection for them?

When the man with parted hair and glasses slowly approached a sleeping old man, everything changed.

The old man slept lightly, and in this environment, he couldn't sleep soundly at all.

After feeling some movement beside him, the old man opened his eyes, but it was too late to shout. His mouth had been covered by a hand, and he seemed to only be able to make "woo woo" sounds.

Then, the bespectacled man's left hand took out a long iron nail from his pocket...

"Clang..."

At this moment, Li Juan carefully opened the cellar door, holding a basin full of snow and jumped down. Seeing the scene in front of him, the steel basin in his hand fell to the ground.

Li Juan hurriedly went up to stop him, but it was too late. The iron nail had already pierced the old man's abdomen...

What followed was a chaotic scene in the cellar.

In such an environment, struggling to survive did interfere with people's minds, and infinitely magnified those human characteristics hidden deep within their hearts.

Jiang Xiao saw Li Juan pressing the man to the ground, loudly questioning him, and forcefully kicking away the bespectacled man's companion who came forward to dissuade him.

A girl hurriedly approached the old man, helping him to hold his abdomen, while the others used their hands and feet to get away from the old man, avoiding him from a distance.

Jiang Xiao took a step and came to the man who was subdued by Li Juan.

Jiang Xiao slowly squatted down, looking at the man's excited and cursing appearance through his Jiu Xing (Nine Star) Eyes.

"They all have to die," "He's lived long enough," "Waste," "Hold us back"...

A series of keywords, coupled with the man's crazy appearance, told Jiang Xiao that this person's emotions had collapsed.

In such a special environment, it would not be surprising to do anything.

Perhaps, he wanted to leave more survival resources for himself.

Or perhaps, with one less civilian, the man would have more opportunities to receive Li Juan's care and protection invisibly.

Jiang Xiao put away Candlelight Blessing. As the sprinkling of glimmering light dissipated, Li Juan hurriedly added a few branches to the bonfire.

However, when the people in the cellar saw the direction Jiang Xiao was squatting, expressions of horror appeared on their faces, which were originally full of happiness and intoxication.

Of course, the people in the cellar knew what had happened in the place where Jiang Xiao was squatting, and Jiang Xiao's strange Jiu Xing (Nine Star) Eyes also made them tremble with fear.

Star Warriors were inherently terrifying professions.

Even if... Jiang Xiao had just healed their bodies and minds, showing great kindness and putting it into practical action, "Star Warrior" was still a lofty "god" to civilians.

The first impression that Jiang Xiao's pitch-black eyeballs, with the glittering Jiu Xing (Nine Star) formation, gave to ordinary people was definitely not beauty, but terror.

Under normal social order, civilians might not have too many thoughts, because order was there, the law was there, and punishment was also there.

But in this lawless alien planet, life and death were indeed a matter of a thought for some Star Warriors.

If this powerful Star Warrior really knew what had happened a day ago, what would be his reaction?

Would Li Juan be punished?

When the incident happened, some people came forward to help, and some people hid far away. More than thirty people were enough to outline a picture of all living beings.

What kind of impression would their most authentic reactions at that time bring to this Star Warrior?

The only thing that could give people hope was Jiang Xiao's reputation.

Most people recognized Jiang Xiao, recognized the person who was active in the World Cup.

On TV and Weibo, this so-called "Naughty God" was naughty, unrestrained, and looked as friendly as he could be, but at this moment, it was all useless.

Even the title of World Cup champion could not reassure everyone.

The only thing that could slightly reassure everyone was... this Little Poisonous Milk was a Pioneer Army soldier.

During his second campaign in the World Cup, his identity was that of a Pioneer Apprentice Army soldier from the Capital Star Warrior University.

If he was a soldier, he should...

People were still in a complex emotional state, but Jiang Xiao had already put away his Jiu Xing (Nine Star) Eyes.

The next things, Jiang Xiao did not need to look at anymore, nor did he want to look at them anymore.

He walked to the old man with white hair and a wrinkled face, squatted down, lifted up his tattered clothes with one hand, and saw the blood-stained cloth tightly wrapped around his abdomen.

"Is the injury healed?" Jiang Xiao asked.

Thanks to Jiang Xiao's timely arrival, and thanks to the fact that the accident happened only last night, otherwise, even if the old man's wound had been simply bandaged, he might not have been able to survive.

The old man hesitated for a moment and said, "Now... it's healed."

For a time, the people in the cellar completely understood that there was no need to ask at all, and this powerful Star Warrior already knew the whole story.

Immediately, people became nervous.

"Hmm." Under the gazes of everyone, Jiang Xiao turned his head and said to Wu Haoyang, "I have a high-quality survival space. It's very safe inside. I'm going to send them in."

"Hmm?" Wu Haoyang raised his eyebrows. After seeing Jiang Xiao's special beam of light and his frightening Jiu Xing (Nine Star) Eyes, Wu Haoyang's psychological endurance seemed to be greater.

In comparison, he wanted to know what Jiang Xiao had seen with his magical pupils just now.

The other people in the cellar, however, breathed a sigh of relief.

The young man's action of lifting the old man's clothes clearly showed that he already knew something, but he seemed... to have no intention of continuing this topic.

Under the gazes of the people, Jiang Xiao directly opened the door to the Calamity Shadow World.

In an instant, warm breaths poured into the cellar from the door.

"Come on." Jiang Xiao took the lead and walked in. Everyone looked at each other, but the old man was not to be outdone. He struggled to get up and walked straight in.

A heat wave hit his face, and the old man stood there foolishly.

Blue sky, white clouds, sandy beaches, and the sea...

Suddenly walking into here from that dark, dry, and cold environment was really like walking into paradise.

Behind him, civilians in tattered clothes walked in one by one, covering their eyes with their hands...

Jiang Xiao said, "According to the Earth's coordinates, this is North America, an ancient island close to the Tropic of Cancer. The temperature in winter is above 20 degrees Celsius. You can survive here for now."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao flashed and disappeared without a trace.

The people who had broken into here from the dark environment gradually adapted to the light and stared blankly at their surroundings.

The next moment, Jiang Xiao appeared in front of everyone with Jiang Shou.

Then, Jiang Xiao left again. When he returned again, he was accompanied by eight Hua Pan (Flowery Boulder) Cows...

"Moo~" The Hua Pan (Flowery Boulder) Cows ignored everyone and were just very dissatisfied with the environment under their feet. In the blink of an eye, the terrain changed in bursts, and朵朵 (duǒ duǒ - measure word for flowers) of鲜花 (xiān huā - fresh flowers) bloomed...

Jiang Xiao waved his hand at Wu Haoyang and Li Juan, who were equally stunned, and led the two out of the Calamity Shadow World door.

Jiang Shou, who had just arrived here, felt everyone's gazes and casually opened his Calamity Shadow Space door.

Inside, a jade-like white palm stretched out and sent out a package full of clothes.

As the door closed, Jiang Shou gestured to the huge package on the ground and said, "There are clothes inside. Pick and choose, wear what you can."

As he spoke, he continued, "I'll build wooden houses for you first. If there are any of you who want to live together, tell me, and I'll see how many houses are suitable to build."

On the China side, the future would be filled with star beasts, so let the people survive here.

This was a typical tropical rainforest climate, warm all year round, suitable for human survival.

Jiang Shou was settling the civilians, while in the alien planet, the three of Jiang Xiao entered the dark and cold cellar again.

Everything that had just happened was so unreal that Li Juan had not yet reacted.

Jiang Xiao, however, put a hand on Li Juan's shoulder, and in the darkness, his soft whisper came: "Some Star Warriors may live a lifetime and not have to face those things. It seems that this world is not friendly to you."

Li Juan pursed his lips and remained silent.

"It's all over." Jiang Xiao patted Li Juan's shoulder.

In a dim cellar, Li Juan didn't care whether the two could see clearly or not, and he nodded heavily...

He didn't like such an experience. If he could choose, going back half a month, he guaranteed that he would never go downstairs to set off those firecrackers...
