Chapter 449 Poopoo Whale

By the shore of the forest lake, Jiang Xiao sat with his arms around his knees, gazing blankly at the two large fish frolicking in the water.

Beside Jiang Xiao, a slumbering Yingying Bear lay sprawled out. Little Candlelight treated the Yingying Bear like a bouncy castle, jumping and leaping on its fluffy back, chirping "wu wu" sounds, seemingly never tiring.

And seemingly… never having any worries.

Little Candlelight played joyfully for a long while before sensing that its master seemed to be in a bad mood.

It blinked its candle-like eyes, raised its small face (head), and curiously looked at Jiang Xiao: "Wu?"

Seeing Jiang Xiao still staring at the lake with unfocused eyes, Little Candlelight bounced off the Yingying Bear and plopped into Jiang Xiao's lap: "Wu~"

Hit by the "little fatty," Jiang Xiao immediately snapped back to his senses, saw Little Candlelight rubbing its face against his chest, and couldn't help but smile as he patted its soft, squishy body.

Behind him, a tall figure flashed into existence, and the waves of murderous aura sent chills down Jiang Xiao's spine. Little Candlelight in his arms also shrank into a ball, clearly frightened.

Without turning around, Jiang Xiao knew who it was.

"It's taken care of," Jiang Xiao said, rubbing Little Candlelight gently to comfort it.

"Yeah, you said you didn't want the mech suit," Er Wei said in a hoarse voice, wiping the remaining blood from her face.

"Yeah," Jiang Xiao's mood wasn't good. He responded softly, "After hearing about his star techniques, it's not worth much. It seemed mysterious when I didn't know, but after finding out, it's just so-so."

Er Wei stood with her hands behind her back, watching Xia Yan playing with the two large fish in the lake, and asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"Hehe," Jiang Xiao's smile was a little bitter. "When this person received the old man's order to assassinate me, you and I shouldn't have joined up yet, so there was only one assassin.

It's clear that the old man just wanted to give me a challenge, just wanted me to improve faster, so he only bewitched one assassin to come."

As he spoke, Jiang Xiao sighed softly and said, "But it's different now. I've joined up with the Tail Feathers team. You can imagine how powerful the star warriors, or even... very likely a team, who will be bewitched by him next time with the method of improving strength, will be."

Er Wei lowered her eyes, looking at Jiang Xiao's back as he sat by the lake, and said, "What kind of team do you think deserves to bring a challenge to the Tail Feathers team?"

Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and whispered, "I learned from the Chinese prisoner just now that there are star warriors from many countries wandering in the alien ball."

Er Wei interrupted Jiang Xiao and said, "I'm talking about what can bring a challenge to the Tail Feathers team."

Jiang Xiao pondered for a long time, then slowly spat out two words: "Hua Xing."

For a moment, the lakeside fell silent, leaving only Xia Yan's laughter as she played in the lake.

Jiang Xiao said, "I'll leave the team. After all, it's important for you to carry out your mission, so you can't delay it."

Er Wei: "Why leave the team? Are you afraid of implicating the Tail Feathers team?"

"Uh... more or less." Jiang Xiao lowered his head, rubbing Little Candlelight in his arms, using its round body as a stress reliever, kneading it to his heart's content. "It's not so much about implicating you, as I'm afraid of holding you back. With me around, it might interfere with the team's efficiency in carrying out its mission."

Er Wei's voice was hoarse as it slowly came from behind: "Then where are you going? Are you going to hide in this Calamity Shadow World?"

"No." Jiang Xiao shook his head and said, "If I want to avoid disturbing the Tail Feathers team's progress, I'd better go find that old man and communicate with him about how to use *Star Warrior Chronicles*, or exercise with him.

While giving him what he wants, I also get what I want."

Er Wei took a long stride forward, standing behind Jiang Xiao, and her hoarse voice came again: "You shouldn't be someone who gives up so easily."

Jiang Xiao said, "I haven't given up. I have a lot of doubts about *Star Warrior Chronicles*, and also, by his side, I can always think about training and improving, and the Tail Feathers team will not be delayed by any other forces in carrying out its mission."

Jiang Xiao leaned forward slightly, away from the person behind him, and said, "You know, compared to carrying out missions, my personal matters are nothing. What's more, I'm not going to suffer, but to study."

Er Wei looked down at Jiang Xiao and said, "If there are dark clouds overhead, resist and break them, rather than obey."

Jiang Xiao moved his butt, turned around, and looked up at Er Wei, saying, "You've misunderstood. I've always been positive and persistent, and I've never given up.

The way we two think is different, you may not understand my purpose, and you've also misunderstood my starting point for making this decision."

Er Wei looked at Jiang Xiao thoughtfully, and after a long silence, she nodded gently and said, "I don't approve of your proposal."

Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then what? We'll pretend nothing happened and continue to carry out our mission in Europe-Chessboard?"

Er Wei: "Not right, not right."

Jiang Xiao: "Uh?"

Er Wei: "We'll continue to carry out our mission in Chessboard. Qi Wei and I need the King Star Beads there. The Chinese military also needs the Soldier Star Beads there, a large demand.

But we won't pretend that nothing happened. After Chessboard, we'll go find Hua Xing."

Jiang Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Is this also one of our tasks?"

Er Wei: "If I say it is, then it is."

So domineering?

Jiang Xiao really wanted to press his thumb on Er Wei's nose and give her a thumbs up, but the atmosphere was a bit off right now.

Er Wei looked at Jiang Xiao with a serious expression: "Sitting still and waiting for death is not the style of our Tail Feathers. Clearing obstacles is the only way to carry out the mission better."

Jiang Xiao pondered for a long time and said, "If we take the initiative..."

Er Wei "hmm" and looked up at the distant lake, saying, "We should have gone to find Hua Xing long ago. It's time to settle the grudges."

Jiang Xiao said, "Then have you ever thought that if even the top Hua Xing can't bring a challenge to our Tail Feathers, maybe that old man will do it himself, you know what his ultimate goal is."

Er Wei: "Focus on the task at hand, survive and talk about the future."

Jiang Xiao clicked his tongue, not quite sure what Er Wei's plan was...

"Poof..."

"Ah!" A cry of surprise suddenly came from behind.

Jiang Xiao turned his head and saw the back of the Lone Whale surfacing from the lake, spraying a cloud of water.

Under the sunlight, there was actually a faint rainbow, which was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Heh." Jiang Xiao shook his head with a smile. Ever since he brought the Lone Whale into his star map, he had made an agreement with it, hoping that from now on, it would only have him in its eyes.

It seemed that the Lone Whale felt Jiang Xiao's emotions and was comforting him in this way.

Just like the shivering Little Candlelight in his arms, although it shrank into a ball after Er Wei came, it wanted to comfort Jiang Xiao and make him happy before Er Wei arrived.

Xia Yan: "Jiang Xiao!"

"Ah?" Jiang Xiao looked at Xia Yan, who had emerged from the water, "What's wrong?"

Xia Yan looked up at the beautiful rainbow and shouted, "You said it's called Lone Whale, why is the name only two characters long? It doesn't match the style of your star pet's name!"

"Ah..." Jiang Xiao's expression became strange and said, "What? Do you want to name it? What should it be called? Big Lone Whale?"

Hearing this, Xia Yan glared at Jiang Xiao angrily and said, "What a terrible name, I can't believe you can say it."

Jiang Xiao snorted, aren't all the names you give in the "Big" generation?

Xia Yan rolled her beautiful eyes and said, "Let's call it Poopoo Whale!"

Jiang Xiao: ???

Xia Yan looked excited and said, "How is it? That's the sound it made when it sprayed water and created a rainbow just now!"

Jiang Xiao was full of black lines, shouldn't it be called Rainbow Whale?

What the hell is Poopoo Whale?

Also... Jiang Xiao hadn't heard this name in five years. In this parallel world, the names of those celebrities in each country are different.

Jiang Xiao asked cautiously, "Are you not stuttering?"

Xia Yan looked at Jiang Xiao curiously and said, "Stuttering what? Humming Whale, Poopoo Whale, how harmonious!"

Oh...

Jiang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, it's good that you're not stuttering. I thought you came from another world like me, I wouldn't dare to give this name!

Speaking of which, it's better to call it Fighting Whale than Poopoo Whale...

Xia Yan wrapped the Soul of Devouring Sea around her body and teleported to the two big shots, pouting her small mouth and said, "How is it? Is this name okay?"

Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said, "Ask it if it's satisfied?"

"Poof..."

A sound came from behind, and the sky was sprayed with water, and the rainbow that had just dissipated reappeared.

Little red hearts popped out of Xia Yan's eyes, and she kicked Jiang Xiao's butt and said, "Look, it likes it!"

"Okay..." Jiang Xiao clicked his tongue with a look of discomfort.

As a naming genius, Xia Yan gave another name, and it was still a star-level king creature. Xia Yan looked happy, and seeing Er Wei's indifferent expression, Xia Yan quickly restrained her smile and said, "By the way, two officers, I have something to ask you."

Jiang Xiao: "Hmm?"

Xia Yan squatted down, tilted her head and looked at Jiang Xiao and said, "I still have three available star slots. I studied my star skill configuration and the effect of Hua Xing becoming a martial artist, and I think I should add some purification star skills. What do you think?"

Jiang Xiao smiled and said, "You also want to fill up the star slots quickly, and then replace them with high-quality star skills? Same problem as Little Jiang Xue."

Xia Yan was anxious and said, "I really want purification star skills. This is the shortcoming of my star skill system. I didn't need it before, but now..."

Hearing this, Jiang Xiao was silent.

Jiang Xiao promised Xia Yan many things, with him, Xia Yan didn't need many things.

In fact, at this time, the configuration of the Tail Feathers team has various functional star skills, but Jiang Xiao's star skills were sealed, but it made Xia Yan lose her greatest reliance.

It can be seen that compared with Jiang Xiao, the status of other people in Xia Yan's heart is different.

Jiang Xiao said, "That's right, as more and more available star slots are available, it's a good idea for you to develop in the direction of becoming a self-contained system."

Saying that, Jiang Xiao looked up at Er Wei and said, "What do you think?"

Xia Yan also stood up quickly, looking at Er Wei with anticipation.

Er Wei said, "Most of the purification star skills are one-star double skills and one-star three skills. The Elephant Star Beads in Chessboard can be given to you.

One-star double skills: Light of Heaven, Forgiveness of Heaven.

Due to your star map career restrictions, you cannot absorb the Light of Heaven, you can only absorb the purification Forgiveness of Heaven.

In addition, you have to fill the remaining two star slots with the two star skills of the King."

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, then, with a look of surprise, said, "King? King Star Skills in the Chessboard area? Are you really going to give it to me? Not hand it in?"

Er Wei nodded lightly: "After the Tail Feathers Brigade was asked to go to the alien ball to perform the task, I stated to the superiors that strengthening our own strength is the only way to better complete the task.

We have the priority to absorb all the star beads and star skills we get during the mission."

Xia Yan nervously pinched her fingers and said, "Forgiveness of Heaven is probably a diamond-level purification star skill, right? There are rare healing star skills inside, this..."

Jiang Xiao also understood, but it made sense. Since the mission location the Tail Feathers team is going to is the highest level, the rarest, the location that ordinary people have never been to, or even heard of, then the members of the Tail Feathers team should have such benefits!

Er Wei: "You heard what I said."

"Yohoo~" Xia Yan cheered and opened her arms to hug Er Wei!

Thanks to the fact that I didn't fill up the star slots in the lower dimension!

Moreover, this is not a problem of low star skill quality in the lower dimension and high star skill quality in the alien ball!

But on Earth, outsiders can't step into other countries' national treasure-level other dimensional spaces!

But on this alien ball, everyone has no scruples, as long as there is intelligence support, they go to the most "noble" location!

As long as you can come out alive!

Of course, Xia Yan thought that she could come out alive. With such a strong team to support her, if she couldn't come out, she deserved to be an international chess piece in it.

Well... even if she is an international chess piece, she also wants that noble and beautiful queen.

Seeing Xia Yan rushing over, Er Wei suddenly stretched out a hand and pressed it on Xia Yan's face, frowning and pushing her body away...

What kind of picture is this?

A husky pounces on a big cat and is rejected?

Jiang Xiao was so happy that the previous haze disappeared.

Jiang Xiao threw Little Candlelight on the back of Yingying Bear, and laughed, "You Seventh Tail, you're considered to have reached the end in Tail Feathers, wanting hugs everywhere, but the leader doesn't like you, and the deputy leader doesn't like you either..."

Xia Yan was already embarrassed, and she also knew that she was excited for a while, and she was overwhelmed, and she pounced on the person she shouldn't have pounced on, but she heard Jiang Xiao sprinkle salt on the wound again!?

Xia Yan was unhappy at the time, and kicked Jiang Xiao into the lake: "I'm giving you face when I ask you for a hug!"

The cold lake water was soaking his body, and it also made Jiang Xiao's head a lot clearer.

Since we are here, let's be at ease.

Just take a bath and play with two big fish.

Who would have thought, in a few seconds...

Jiang Xiao, who was swimming in the lake, was suddenly shot out by a water column and sprayed into the high sky, and behind him, there were rainbows of farts...
