Shen Nanxing snorted coldly and met the attack with a burst of blazing lightning.
Electricity crackled across the slender creatures as they thudded to the ground.
The King and Little Silver had already darted into the slender creatures.
The king opened his mouth and hissed, and suddenly a burst of red light shot out from his mouth.
The specks of snowflakes fell to the ground, and the moment they came into contact with the fallen leaves and withered grass, they ignited into a great fire.
The fire spread rapidly, quickly engulfing the area.
'Roar roar roar'
The slender creatures saw the fire, their eyes flashing with fear. They retreated and hesitated on the road, not daring to launch another attack.
"Your Majesty!"
Jiang Nian'an strode to the king's side, a look of surprise flashing in her eyes.
She really didn't expect that in just two days, the king would mutate and develop a superpower, and it was an extremely useful fire-type superpower at that.
"Your Majesty, you are truly amazing!"
Jiang Nian'an's heartfelt praise brought a hint of shyness to the usually composed king's eyes.
At this moment, Shen Nanxing also came over.
He reached out and touched the king's head, exclaiming in amazement, "I never imagined that mutated animals could also develop superpowers."
'Hiss'
Little Silver, standing to the side, held its head high, its round eyes crinkling into slits, even happier than the Great King Snake himself.
'roar--'
As the fires around them subsided, the slender creatures that had been hesitating on the road began to stir again.
"An'an, let's deal with them first."
Shen Nanxing stood up and once again unleashed an even more powerful and intense burst of lightning at the slender creatures.
The purple lightning streaked along the ground, accompanied by thunderous roars, and in the blink of an eye, it had already rushed into the slender swarm of creatures.
'Boom boom'
Lightning suddenly struck, the ground cracked, the road collapsed, and debris flew everywhere.
'roar--'
The slender creatures kept wailing.
Slender creatures kept dying because they couldn't withstand the powerful electric current.
A pungent, acrid smell of burning and a strong stench of blood filled the air.
Before Jiang Nian'an could even make a move, the slender creatures were almost all dead.
The few dozen remaining slender creatures, seeing their companions lying dead beside them, were immediately filled with panic and horror.
They all burrowed into the ground and fled quickly.
Shen Nanxing let out a soft breath and was about to turn around when Jiang Nian'an hugged him tightly from behind.
Jiang Nian'an looked up at him, her eyes sparkling, "Brother Chen, you're amazing, so handsome!"
He truly deserves to be her man.
Hearing Jiang Nian'an's praise, Shen Nanxing turned around and hugged her back, a smile involuntarily spreading across his face, clearly in a very good mood.
Just as he was about to say something, Jiang Nian'an pushed him away, "Alright, let's dig for the crystal cores!"
Shen Nanxing was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Nian'an, who was already running towards the slender creature's corpse with a dagger in hand, and couldn't help but chuckle.
He quickly walked over to Jiang Nian'an and squatted down beside her, looking at her with tenderness and doting eyes, his heart still pounding excitedly because of her praise.
He never imagined that someone could stir his heart and make him so excited with just a few words.
"An'an..."
"Um?"
As soon as Jiang Nian'an raised her head, she saw Shen Nanxing's face looming large in front of her.
The next second, a warm kiss landed on her lips, carrying a familiar scent.
Jiang Nian'an stared wide-eyed at the handsome face so close to hers, momentarily stunned.
Shen Nanxing's kiss was very light, so light that it seemed like a fleeting touch, yet it gradually deepened in intensity, leaving the heart in turmoil.
After a long while, he finally released her, his Adam's apple bobbing as he calmed himself down, a sudden pang of guilt rising in his heart.
He kissed An'an without her consent...
Shen Nanxing subconsciously looked away, not daring to look Jiang Nian'an in the eye.
But then I felt that my behavior of running away after kissing him was just too much like that of a jerk.
He swallowed, mustered his courage, and looked at Jiang Nian'an, only to see her with her head down, her face flushed like a peach blossom, showing no sign of anger, but rather a hint of shyness.
Shen Nanxing felt relieved and became even happier, and couldn't help but reach out and interlock his fingers with hers.
Jiang Nian'an turned her head to look at him, and met Shen Nanxing's gentle and doting gaze.
The two smiled and tightened their clasped hands.
Half an hour later, Jiang Nian'an brought out a bucket of water and rinsed the crystal core that had been dug out of the slender creature's brain clean.
Then it was stored in the space.
Jiang Nian'an looked at the darkening sky, stretched, and said, "Brother Chen, let's go back..."
"Um."
Shen Nan walked over to her and gently massaged her shoulders a few times. Seeing that Jiang Nian'an looked a little more relaxed, he opened the passenger door.
Jiang Nian'an crouched down and crawled inside.
Shen Nanxing opened the back seat again, letting Xiao Yin and Da Wang climb in before sitting in the driver's seat.
With a tap of the accelerator, the car sped off.
'Beep beep—'
Just as I arrived at the base entrance, I heard car horns honking behind me.
The two of them turned around and looked back at the same time.
It was Gu Shan and Ren Han.
Ren Han drove the car next to them.
Gu Shan waved to the two men, then looked at the bloodstains on their bodies and asked with a smile, "Did you two go out to kill zombies?"
"Um."
Shen Nanxing didn't say much. After nodding to Gu Shan, he drove into the base.
"Hey, that's pretty aloof!"
Gu Shan touched his nose and told Ren Han to drive into the base.
Shen Nanxing drove and soon arrived at Area B.
After parking the car in the parking lot, the two walked hand in hand with smiles on their faces towards their residence.
The small silver plate rested on Jiang Nian'an's shoulder, while the Great King followed beside Shen Nanxing.
It was pitch black all around, and no one noticed for a moment that two snakes were following the two people.
'Chirp'
As soon as they reached the building entrance, Xiao Zi emerged from the soil and quickly climbed onto Jiang Nian'an's other shoulder.
She tilted her head slightly and asked Xiao Zi, "Do you know where that person lives?"
Xiao Zi nodded hastily.
Little Purple is always perfect in handling matters.
"Well done!"
Jiang Nian'an praised it and fed it a mouthful of wood-type energy.
Little Purple proudly nodded at Little Silver.
Look, look, the owner only praised me, not you!
'hiss'
Little Silver was unmoved, even turning its head to the other side, not even glancing at Little Purple.
Xiao Zi: (〝▼plate▼)!!
Damn it, I feel like this stinky snake is looking down on me!
Jiang Nian'an ignored the undercurrents between the two little ones.
She stopped and turned to Shen Nanxing, whispering, "Brother Shen, how about we go check out that guy in the gray clothes?"
The dead of night is the perfect opportunity to investigate.
Shen Nanxing immediately nodded, "Okay."
Jiang Nian'an smiled and patted Xiao Zi's head. "Xiao Zi, lead the way!"
It had barely climbed onto its owner's shoulder when it had to get down.
Little Purple snorted and gave Little Silver a somewhat resentful look.
Suddenly, a vine-like tail extended and lashed out, knocking Little Silver down.
Little Silver, caught off guard: ? ? ?
