Anger from the Terracotta Army +9 +9 +9...

The remaining terracotta warriors surged forward in an overwhelming manner, engulfing Zu'an like a tidal wave.

Zuan used the Sunflower Illusion technique to dodge and attack through the crowd. When he couldn't avoid it, he would shine his flashlight around randomly, just like a small boat in a raging sea. Although he was about to sink in the storm, he persevered.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but Zuan felt his arm getting heavier and heavier. He had to be thankful that he was using a dagger. Although it was a bit short, it was light and easy to carry, which was a perfect match for his speed and agility. If he had been holding a longsword, he would never have been able to last this long in the battle against the army.

Even so, he was only at the third rank of cultivation, and his energy reserves had their limits. Even if the Sunflower Illusion and the Thirteen Forms of the Elementary Sword Technique consumed little energy, he had been fighting for so long, and his energy was almost depleted.

He could feel that each thrust now seemed to require ten times more effort than usual.

He couldn't help but secretly regret that he should have spent the anger points he had accumulated before entering the Earth Seal. Even if he didn't get any magical items, it would have been good to get some spirit fruits to replenish his energy.

At the time, I mainly didn't want my keyboard system to be exposed, since there was an unfathomable Mi Li watching from the shadows. Now that I think about it, what does keyboard exposure matter compared to my life?

Unfortunately, it's too late for regrets now. He's surrounded by enemies on all sides, and if he's not careful, he'll be chopped into mincemeat. How could he possibly be distracted by drawing a prize?

Just then, a dozen terracotta warriors around him thrust at him with halberds. He hurriedly activated his Sunflower Illusion to dodge to the side, but he was too exhausted and his landing position was slightly different from what he expected. When he landed, he accidentally stepped on the broken leg of a terracotta warrior.

He immediately lost his balance and staggered to the side.

The terracotta warriors nearby were not about to waste such a good opportunity; several halberds immediately stabbed at him.

Because he had just protected Qiao Xueying from falling to the ground, exposing her body, those halberds would definitely pierce him first.

Zuan used his dagger to parry two of the halberds, but he couldn't avoid the remaining two. He suddenly raised his left hand and placed it in front of Qiao Xueying.

Pfft!

The two halberds pierced his arm, instantly tearing flesh and blood apart. His left hand lost all strength and he could no longer hold the flashlight.

At this moment, more terracotta warriors surrounded him, brandishing their halberds to stab him.

Seeing that he was about to be stabbed to death by the halberds, he roared and used his dagger to cut off the halberd head that was stuck in his arm. Then, he rolled to the side with Qiao Xueying in his arms, narrowly avoiding the next attack from the terracotta warriors.

Despite using Sunflower Illusion several times, he still couldn't shake off the pursuers. In desperation, he had no choice but to use his remaining Yuan Power to activate the "Great Wind" skill, flying straight to a hundred meters away and jumping out of the encirclement of the terracotta warriors.

However, he felt no joy at all, because he was now completely exhausted and even the "magical flashlight" had fallen. Perhaps because it was too far away, he was unable to retrieve it back into the keyboard space.

He was now completely exhausted, and his vision was becoming blurry. He knew this was due to excessive blood loss and exhaustion.

"Looks like we're really destined to be a pair of lovebirds this time." Zu An gasped for breath, too weak to even stand, and slumped to the ground, watching the terracotta warriors rushing toward him from a hundred meters away.

For the first time ever, Qiao Xueying didn't refute him. She looked at his arm, which was bleeding profusely and had the spearheads of those halberds stuck in it.

“If you hadn’t brought me along, you might have had a chance to defeat them,” she said in a low voice, her head bowed.

Zuan shook his head: "Even without you, I wouldn't have been able to defeat so many. My cultivation level is still too low to support me in fighting against so many soldiers."

Qiao Xueying stared blankly at his bleeding arm: "Why did you block that for me just now? Otherwise, you could have lasted longer."

Zuan cried out, "It's all because I'm angry! I was really bewitched! You're not my wife, why would I save you? Give me another chance, and I would have thrown you out to take the bullet for me! Ugh, the more I talk about it, the angrier I get..."

Seeing his regretful expression, Qiao Xueying laughed for the first time: "You, you always talk so carelessly, no wonder you're so annoying."

Zu'an immediately objected: "Big sister, I just saved you, it's not good for you to have such a sharp tongue..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qiao Xueying suddenly tilted her head back and gently kissed his lips.

Zuan's eyes widened in surprise. He had to admit that this girl's words weren't actually venomous at all; in fact, they were rather sweet.

But what he couldn't understand was why the other person was kissing him at this moment. Did she have been coveting his body for a long time and couldn't hold back any longer before she died?

After a long while, their lips parted, and a blush appeared on Qiao Xueying's pale cheeks. Just as she was about to say something, Zu An exclaimed first, "My first kiss!"

Qiao Xueying: "..."

Qiao Xueying's anger level has increased by 999!

This is the second update. I'll continue writing, but at my pace, I can't guarantee I'll finish the third update tonight. If I'm lucky enough to finish, I'll announce it in the group chat.
