Just then, a sandworm leaped out of the sand, its sharp mouthparts aimed straight at Phimonroya, who had her back to it.

Sang Ning caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of her eye. Before she could warn anyone, she moved with lightning speed, darting to Fimmonloa's side and kicking her to the ground.

Then, she twisted her body, pushed off the ground with her feet, and leaped high into the air, raising the knife in her hand and stabbing the sandworm's jaw with swift, precise speed.

"Snap—"

The sharp tip of the knife pierced straight into the gap between the two carapaces on the sandworm's lower jaw. The sandworm's body stiffened, and Sang Ning pushed hard with the knife handle. With a "thud," the knife tip instantly pierced through the sandworm's entire lower jaw and emerged from the top of its head.

Sang Ning sheathed his sword and landed on the ground. He rolled away to avoid the sand worms attacking from the left, then raised his sword again to fight the sand worms.

The insect whose head she had pierced fell onto the sand, dead beyond any doubt.

By this time, Fimonloa had already gotten up from the ground. Sang Ning's kick in her haste was a bit too hard, making her shinbone ache, but the approaching sandworms made her oblivious to the pain.

Instead, he somersaulted and leaped up, raising his gun to fire.

"Ahhh—"

Mu Tao, the unlucky fellow, screamed as he was knocked away by two sandworms. Luo Tianya was furious and shouted "Big Peach!" before running towards him like his life depended on it to save him.

However, a large cleaver came rushing from the east, swiftly and accurately striking the third segment of a sandworm. With a snap, the sandworm was cleaved in two.

"Old Gu and Xiao Ningzi, we're here."

Qi Wenyuan's voice came, but before Sang Ning and the others, who were engaged in a fierce battle with the sand worms, could turn around to look, Qi Wenyuan and his group arrived on their sand motorcycles.

With helpers, these sandworms are no longer a threat.

Sang Ning and the others can now focus on the sandworms without having to pay attention to Monet and the others.

The battle ended about half an hour later.

A group of people covered in dirt, panting heavily, sat down on the sand.

The area where they were located was littered with the corpses of sandworms.

The air was filled with a strong smell of blood and stench.

The fishy smell came from sandworms, and the bloody smell came from Mu Tao and his group.

Mu Tao, Luo Tianya, Fei Mengluoya, Mo Nainai, Clyde, and even Qin Heng were all injured.

The injuries aren't serious; they're all superficial wounds, and wound repair fluid should suffice.

However, it's embarrassing.

The six of them were so angry they turned into groundhogs, sitting on the scorching sand while Sang Ning treated their wounds and complained.

"How could someone as brave as me possibly get injured? It's all because of the sandworms' lack of martial ethics."

"Yes, I never expected the sandworms to be so despicable as to launch a sneak attack."

Sang Ning paused for a moment, then calmly said, "You underestimated your enemy. It has nothing to do with whether the sand worms launched a sneak attack or not."

"Besides, sandworms have no intelligence; they only have an appetite, and everything they do is to get food."

Six people, "..."

Can't we at least give them some face?

What should I do to shatter their illusions?

"You should comfort us, not belittle us."

Luo Tianya made the suggestion in a serious and earnest manner, and Sang Ning responded with an "oh".

"Okay, I'll remember that. I'll comfort you next time we encounter sandworms."

As she spoke, she took the wound repair fluid and came to Mo Nainai. She first examined the protective suit she was wearing, then sighed, "Your suit is ruined."

Monet's combat skills and fighting ability are too poor, and her adaptability is also lacking.

Of all the people, she had the most injuries.

Not only were there injuries everywhere, but even the protective suit was tattered to the point of being a beggar's outfit.

The kind that can lead a new trend.

Monet didn't seem to care. She glanced at her clothes and said calmly, "It's okay, I brought a thousand outfits with me this time."

"How many?"

Sang Ning stared in shock, "A thousand sets?"

"Yes."

Monet nodded, "However, there aren't many protective suits, only a hundred sets. I plan to play for half a year, and I can easily wear five sets a day."

After carefully sorting through the sandworm corpses, Qi Wenyuan and the others, who were about to greet them, fell silent.

His steps also came to a halt.

The group looked at their own clothes, so old they'd be rejected even at the garbage disposal center, and then at Monet, who changed outfits five times a day. After exchanging glances, they decided it was best not to go over there and provoke the young girl.

"Hello, welcome to planet e72."

Qi Wenyuan's gaze fell on Emmanuel. Of all the people, this one seemed the most reliable. Let's not talk about the others.

"Greetings, Your Excellency, and gentlemen. I apologize for disturbing you."

Emmanuel immediately stood up and bowed to Qi Wenyuan and the others.

"You're too kind. They're all Xiao Ningzi's friends. Make yourself at home."

As he spoke, Qi Wenyuan introduced himself and, acting as an introducer, introduced Jiang Xunchu and the others to Emmanuel and his group.

Emmanuel followed suit, introducing himself first, and then introducing Elliott and the others.

Then, the two started chatting.

Meanwhile, Sanning had also treated the injury on Clyde's arm.

"Be careful, you'll be fully recovered in less than two hours."

She gave him instructions, and Clyde nodded, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

Sang Ning nodded, stood up and said to Qi Wenyuan and the others, "Uncle Qi, Uncle Jiang... Uncle Lei, I'm back."

Have you missed me?

She smiled broadly, the sense of security of being home making her smile incredibly radiant.

He was radiating happiness.

Noticing her change, Mo Nainai and the others exchanged glances, thinking to themselves that it would be better if Sang Ning came back to happiness.

He was calm and composed when he was on the desolate planet, but after getting to know them, he became more talkative and cheerful, but he was still a bit different from how he is now.

Not to mention when she was on the central star, she was in even worse shape than when she was on the desolate star. She was always on edge, giving them the impression that she was ready to fight at any moment.

But I can understand, the feeling of going home is different.

Just like them, they feel at ease when they go home.

After all, it's home, a safe haven.

The group exchanged smiles, letting Sang Ning be dragged around by Qi Wenyuan and the others like a monkey.

"I thought you were going out to suffer, but I didn't expect you to gain weight and grow taller."

After looking Sang Ning up and down, Qi Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I can finally rest assured."

With tears in her eyes, Jiang Xunchu pulled Sang Ning close and said emotionally, "My child, you've suffered so much!"

Sang Ning was embarrassed. "Uncle, don't cry. I'm afraid to see you cry."

"I didn't cry, I'm just easily moved to tears."

Jiang Xunchu, with tears welling in her eyes, was all serious. Sang Ning chuckled awkwardly, "Okay, whatever you say."

Jiang Xunchu was about to speak when Lei Tianqing pulled him away and retorted, "Finish crying before you come. Let me get to know Xiao Ningzi first."
