The atmosphere in the cave grew awkward, neither of them speaking!
The earth bear, hearing no more noise, gave up!
Jiangnan breathed a sigh of relief, if it kept chasing, even teleporting wouldn’t cut it!
Just as the earth bear started to turn back!
A sudden whooshing sound came from the sky, a tall dark figure plummeting at high speed!
It crashed into the ground, sending dirt and rocks flying!
Jiangnan and Li Muyuan’s eyes widened!
The newcomer wore a black military uniform, long hair tied into a bun tucked into a beret!
Her narrow eyes gleamed with cold light!
Her face was icy!
Who else but Shanmao?
The earth bear, enraged by Shanmao’s sudden appearance, swung its paw at her!
Shanmao didn’t dodge! She charged forward, meeting it with a single fist!
“Boom!”
A deafening crash, dust billowing!
Half her body was driven into the rock!
Yet she held firm! Her hands gleamed with a hard, black-iron sheen!
Her expression unchanged, she grabbed the bear’s toes!
With a shout, she swung with force!
The twenty-metre earth bear was slammed to the ground!
Kicking up a cloud of dust!
Jiangnan’s scalp tingled!
Good grief!
Was Shanmao even human?
What kind of strength was this?
Tossing a massive earth bear like a toy?
The codename Shanmao was too tame!
She should be called Human Tyrannosaur!
The earth bear roared, scrambling up!
Black light surged around it, forming a thick shield!
Spirit Skill: Bear King Shield!
It stood before the bear, ready to block Shanmao’s attack!
But Shanmao didn’t care!
Her arms fully transformed into black iron, gleaming metallically!
She charged, throwing a punch!
Her arm glowed with blazing red light!
Breaking the sound barrier, it unleashed a white shockwave!
One punch!
The thick Bear King Shield shattered!
The massive earth bear was sent flying!
It crashed into the cliff, struggling but unable to rise!
Shanmao leapt, landing on its huge bear face!
Her fists fell like rain, each blow booming like tank artillery!
For a full thirty seconds!
The earth bear was done for!
Jiangnan swallowed hard!
Look at that!
Was this something a human could do?
A gold-tier earth bear, beaten to death with her fists?
This woman was way too brutal!
Jiangnan had thought about taming her into a docile kitten?
That’d be tough!
One slap from her might end him!
Recalling how he’d flirted with her before, he felt a pang of guilt!
Shanmao stood tall, took a deep breath, and shouted, “Jiangnan!”
Huh?
She was really here for him?
Jiangnan waved frantically from the cave entrance, “Sister Shanmao! Over here!”
Li Muyuan was too scared to speak!
This woman in the military uniform had punched an earth bear to death!
Wasn’t that even scarier?
And Jiangnan called her so affectionately?
Were they that close?
Recalling when Shanmao personally took Jiangnan away at school!
In Li Muyuan’s eyes, Jiangnan’s identity grew even more mysterious!
Three years as classmates!
She’d never really known Jiangnan!
While everyone mocked and looked down on him!
Little did they know, Jiangnan had reached heights they couldn’t even dream of!
Thinking of her past petty conflicts with him, she felt childish!
Her heart ached!
…
Shanmao saw Jiangnan unharmed, the coldness in her eyes softening.
Then she scolded, “Why’d you run off? You’re the worst!”
Jiangnan grinned, rushing forward, “I knew Sister Shanmao cared about me! How could you not worry?”
“You’re all tough talk, soft heart! You…”
Seeing Shanmao’s eyes grow cold again!
Jiangnan shut his mouth!
Fine, he’d stop talking…
Just playing it safe!
Approaching the earth bear, Jiangnan got excited!
He dug out its spirit core!
A gold-tier core, with a spirit skill! How could Jiangnan pass it up?
Shanmao glanced at Li Muyuan and Jiangnan, saying nothing!
She grabbed Jiangnan by the waistband, picked up Li Muyuan with the other arm!
Suddenly!
Jiangnan had a bad feeling!
It reminded him of that time he jumped off a building!
“Hey! Don’t!”
“Boom!”
Shanmao leapt! Her body shot forward!
The rushing wind distorted Jiangnan’s face!
The speed was so fast, the scenery blurred!
It felt like riding a rollercoaster!
Cold air blasted the back of Jiangnan’s neck!
Then he looked at Li Muyuan!
She was being carried! While he was held like a chick!
Both human!
Why the different treatment?
Even so, Li Muyuan’s face was pale with fear.
Racing through the forest!
Shanmao reached a base where the Night Army was evacuating students!
The students only saw a woman in a black military uniform land from the sky with two people.
After dropping Li Muyuan!
She leapt again with Jiangnan, vanishing in two bounds!
Jiangnan’s screams echoed in the night sky!
Li Muyuan was stunned, she was saved just like that?
What about Jiangnan?
Why did she take him away?
The students were shocked!
“What the hell? Was that South God just now?”
A girl, “Are you blind? You didn’t recognise the handsome South God?”
A boy, “???”
“What? South God’s not evacuating with us?”
“Taken away again? If you say South God’s not connected to the Night Army, I won’t believe it!”
“Forget that, back at the base! If not for South God, we’d probably be corpses by now!”
“Li Muyuan? You’re alive? That’s great!”
Ling Feng’s face lit up with joy, but Li Xiang and Liu Quanwu looked grim!
Li Muyuan gave a forced smile, coldly glancing at Li Xiang and Liu Quanwu, saying nothing, not approaching them!
Holding a grudge? No need for that! After all this!
Li Muyuan had grown a lot!
Ling Feng was puzzled, unsure what happened!
During the escape, he’d gotten separated from his team, clueless about everything!
But didn’t he remember Li Muyuan wearing jeans before?
Why was she now in black track pants?
And they looked like men’s pants?
“Li Muyuan? Why’d you change pants?”
At this, Li Muyuan’s expression froze, her ears turning red!
She glared at Ling Feng, “Why so many questions?”
Ling Feng, “???”
I didn’t ask much? She was brought back with South God…
Those pants, could they be South God’s?
The two of them… whoa!
Li Xiang and Liu Quanwu stayed silent, never imagining Li Muyuan would survive…
