"Don't close the passage! Don't close the passage! Never close the passage again!!!"
Under the lamplight, the sharp tips of his claws gleamed silver. Even though he was furious, he still knew what he could and couldn't say.
However, its anger was beyond Xu Ling's expectations.
You can't really blame her for this, can you?
She didn't have the ability to foresee that Alger and the others would activate the magic circle!
Even so, seeing how reliable Mao Du was, with his hair all about to get tangled, she still felt a little uneasy.
Because she felt a little guilty, when Kaopu rushed over, she opened her arms to him as warmly as April.
Unfortunately, instead of a warm embrace, she was met with a fierce attack. A well-timed attack gives no time to react; caught completely off guard, she couldn't react in time and could only instinctively dodge.
Of course, the reliable attack didn't end there. It moved and attacked in mid-air, leaving Xu Ling only able to dodge and defend herself.
Since she was in the wrong first, she didn't dare to retaliate immediately, so she just let the reliable person vent their anger.
But... isn't that too much of a temper?
Quite some time had passed, and Kaopu showed no sign of stopping. In fact, because it hadn't been able to hit Xu Ling for a while, its attacks became even more ferocious.
Simply dodging was no longer enough. After being scratched by a reliable claw and drawing blood, Xu Ling became angry and stopped just dodging.
Seeing that she was finally serious, the kitten's eyes gleamed with excitement, and it taunted, "Quick! Xu Ling, come and attack me!"
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Ling's figure vanished from everyone's sight in a flash. The next instant, before anyone could react, she suddenly appeared behind Kaopu.
He used his hand as a knife and quickly chopped at the reliable one.
The reliable one reacted even faster; she had barely raised her hand when she vanished from sight. Xu Ling was equally quick, raising her hand halfway down to her face, just in time to block the reliable one's next attack.
The two, one human and one cat, were completely absorbed in their back-and-forth fighting, their only thought being the desire to beat each other.
April, standing to the side, was stunned. This was the most intense fight between Kaopu and Xu Ling ever!
Well—it was at least the most intense one she'd had since she met Xu Ling!
However, after the initial shock, a hint of worry appeared in her eyes, "Is it alright for them to fight like this?"
As she spoke, she turned to look at Sisi beside her.
Sisi was still in shock. Her large, violet eyes were visibly wide open, completely unlike their usual radiant appearance, instead carrying a somewhat silly air about them.
Actually, she wasn't like this at the beginning.
Honestly, she wasn't surprised by Kaopu's initial attacks. After all, it and Xu Ling usually had a small argument every two days and a big one every three days.
Of course, perhaps because they've been out and about these past few days, the two of them have become more restrained, and the frequency of their arguments has decreased significantly.
However, she was shocked because Xu Ling was completely beyond her expectations.
Before this, perhaps it was a fledgling mentality, but because of Xu Ling's name and appearance, she always unconsciously paid attention to her, wanted to take care of her, and was afraid that she would encounter danger.
Although she sometimes felt that her aggressive questioning was annoying, she just couldn't help it!
I have a feeling that if I'm not careful, this only person I can connect with from my past life will get into trouble.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh inwardly. She had misspoke earlier; she didn't have the mentality of a fledgling bird, but rather the mentality of a mother hen.
"Sissi?" April looked at Sissi, who seemed lost in her own thoughts, and asked, full of questions, "What's wrong?"
Instead of worrying about Xu Ling and Kaopu, who were still locked in a fierce battle, he became concerned about Qianqian. After all, Xu Ling and Kaopu seemed to be unharmed, while Qianqian seemed more likely to suffer psychological trauma.
Sisi regained her composure at that sound. "Ah? Oh, it's nothing. I was just surprised that Lingling seems... really amazing!"
When she said the last three words, her expression suddenly became serious.
Yes, that's impressive.
At least at this moment, Xu Ling didn't seem as weak as she used to be.
Of course, this "fragility" is purely Sissi's own perspective; at least April doesn't see it that way.
She blinked, puzzled. "Is it that amazing?" Before Sisi could answer, she continued, "I don't think so!"
She genuinely doesn't think so!
Even though Xu Ling usually behaved unremarkable, no different from the least outstanding students in the class, but—
She's the "Chosen Witch"! How could she possibly be "ordinary"?!
Sisi: ......
Although April didn't explicitly state the reason, Sisi could still read the meaning in her eyes: "Xu Ling is just that amazing!"
Isn't this filter a bit too heavy?
Sisi couldn't help but mutter to herself.
I never imagined that I was actually just as good as April, only the perspective was different!
Despite her complaints, Sisi's thoughts were unknowingly swayed by April.
Perhaps... Xu Ling is just that amazing?
But in reality, Xu Ling's only advantage was her speed; as for her attack methods...
Honestly, Sisi knows far more than she does!
However, it's not surprising that they moved so fast. I heard April mention that before she met Xu Ling, Xu Ling had always lived alone in the wilderness.
Sisi's impression of the desolate wilderness: deserted, overgrown with weeds, and fraught with danger.
In reality, Xu Ling lived in a "desolate wilderness": there were no people, no animals, and not even a blade of grass!
Because of her stereotypical view of "the desolate wilderness," Xixi readily accepted the idea that "Xu Ling is very capable."
After all, survival skills in the wilderness are really important!
What seemed like a long time was actually just a short while. And in that short time, the human and the cat had already exchanged countless blows.
Aside from being scratched by Kaopu's claws at the beginning, Xu Ling was never injured again. But similarly, Kaopu was never attacked by her.
No one was hurt, but that doesn’t mean others can just stand by and watch them continue like this.
However, just as April couldn't help but speak up to stop it, the yellow kitten, which had been nimbly maneuvering in mid-air with an aggressive air, suddenly stopped moving in mid-air and then retreated instead of advancing.
Seeing this, Xu Ling did not rush forward, but instead stood still.
