MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!
XG 189 - Look at how good other's people's boyfriend is
The moment Chen Yibo finally broke the last layer of the rock, revealing the flesh of a living and breathing human, Wong Xue Guo immediately grabbed that opportunity. Like a parasite, her shadow swims into the crack and absorbs every drop of life force from the living person inside.
Chen Yibo got plenty of time to search for useful information from the rock guy while cracking the rock. There was nothing useful from his memories, so Wong Xue Guo does not need to hold back.
Between them and the rock guy, she prefers him to die instead.
"... The sun is rising."
They took quite some time taking down the rock guy, who was now a dried-up corpse half buried by the sand from the crumbled rock. Chen Yibo grabbed the sword under the pile of dusted rock, flinging it to remove the dust.
Eying her right shoe with a gaping heel, she considered whether to find some glue to fix it, or just ransack a shop for a new pair. Normally, the rich kid Wong Xue Guo does not even bother rescuing even a small defective shoe and would immediately purchase a new one.
But these boots was the one she had brought secretly behind her mother's back with her hidden stash, and she had a fond memory of them. If her boots were more worn out, she would not be this reluctant, but other than the gaping heel, the rest of the shoe was still doing well.
There was no sign of other enemies, so they joined the wrecked car, where most of them had gathered around. Other than the tired Shaman Ji and the scared girl with scars mixed with old and new injuries that were hiding in Duck Hwan's intact car, the others helped to pull out the unconscious Chung Cha.
Wong Xue Guo's fingers twitched and she clasped her hands together to stop herself from doing what she would regret.
Chung Cha was not dead, her legs were in one piece, and possibly does not need an amputation. She certainly needs medical attention, and no one knows how her injured leg would be. Even if it was a dangerous injury, there was still Suzie Yap with the healing ability. Chung Cha just needs to wait until Suzie Yap returned to the base to fix her leg.
There was certainly no need for Wong Xue Guo to share her energy and expose herself, thus destroying the facade Chin Chun had tried to present to the public for her safety.
Chen Yibo could hear her thoughts, their link was still not broken even after there was no longer a need to supply him with energy. Not knowing if she had forgotten or does not mind him reading her mind, he holds onto her clasped hands, silently supporting her without needing to say anything.
After settling Chung Cha with sloppy bandage skills beside Shaman Ji, Duck Hwan and the rest refuse to leave their friend's dead bodies just like that.
It will take a long time to dig out a hole big enough for the bodies, and even three at that, so Wong Xue Guo formed a leopard shadow and had it dig quickly. With the energy from the rock guy, Wong Xue Guo's energy level was back to normal, which was rather telling about an Awakened person's energy. But what she absorbed could not erase the sore feeling of her muscles from the fight earlier.
"Haish." Duck Hwan sighed, his eyes expressing pity for the deceased.
One had not experienced half of his lifespan, the other has a young daughter and the other does not even have the chance to be an adult. He does not know if it was a good thing or bad that both mother and daughter died together without worrying what the other would do if one of them was left behind.
