Si Xiaobei nodded, wisely refraining from speaking further, and squatted down next to Nanming.
He looked preoccupied.
"I have a feeling that a lot of things are going to happen today, and I'm really worried that we might encounter some danger."
No, it won't.
Looking up at the sky, Nanming answered resolutely, "Don't worry, even if the sky falls, I will protect you."
Si Xiaobei's face flushed slightly, and she buried her head in her arms, speaking softly.
"Brother Nanming, I have a girlfriend..."
Nanming's body visibly trembled, and he gave an awkward smile.
"That's not what I meant. I just meant that we've always had a good friendship as teammates."
Nanming scratched his face and turned his head away, not wanting Si Xiaobei to see his own blushing face.
Si Xiaobei kept his head buried in his chest. Although he didn't say it, he knew in his heart that he had read similar novels before and understood what he needed to know.
Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Nanming turned his head back and couldn't help but smile when he saw Si Xiaobei's shy and blushing face.
"Xiao Bei." Nan Ming suddenly called out to Si Xiao Bei.
"What's wrong..." Si Xiaobei peeked her flushed face out from her arms and looked shyly at Nanming.
Nanming leaned against the wall, as if recalling something, and slowly said, "Do you remember when you first came to the team?"
Si Xiaobei thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
"I remember I was very shy back then, and I was so nervous that I couldn't speak to anyone. Brother Xiaogang and Brother Fengxuan were too enthusiastic, which made me feel very uncomfortable."
The captain wasn't much of a talker; he only felt truly at ease talking to Nanming.
Thinking back to the happy times when she first joined the team, Si Xiaobei's face showed a happy smile.
A happy smile also appeared on Nanming's face.
"Actually, before you came, I hardly spoke to anyone else. I was like an outsider and couldn't fit in with them."
Upon hearing Nanming's words, Si Xiaobei was slightly taken aback. Nanming continued speaking.
"Because of some past experiences, I almost don't trust anyone, and I thought I would stay in the investigation team in this state forever."
But until you arrived.
Nanming looked at Si Xiaobei again, his eyes like the rising sun in the morning, shining a warm ray of sunlight on his face.
Si Xiaobei blushed again and buried her head in her arms once more.
"The first time I saw you, I felt that you were like an innocent and carefree child, and I wondered why you would join this place."
But after spending more time with you, I realized you're not a child, but a little angel.
“Brother Nanming, please stop talking… I love my girlfriend very much… I would never betray her.”
Nanming couldn't help but chuckle twice as he listened to his words.
"Okay, I won't say any more strange things."
Nanming shut his mouth and looked up at the sky, but after a moment of silence, he spoke again.
"Thank you, Xiao Bei, for changing my view of humanity..."
"Um?"
Si Xiaobei looked up blankly, not understanding what he was talking about.
But the next moment, Si Xiaobei's pupils trembled violently, and he hurriedly looked in one direction and shouted in terror,
"Brother Nanming is in danger!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Nanming lunged forward and tackled Si Xiaobei to the ground. As a result, the [Night Kill] that was grabbing at Si Xiaobei missed its target and crashed into the wall.
The solid wall was smashed open, leaving a large hole.
Nanming stood up, shielding Si Xiaobei behind him, and drew his straight sword, watching the Night Killer warily in the pit.
"Damn it! It wasn't Hera after all!"
【Night Killer】A furious voice came from the cave as she climbed out, her face contorted with rage.
However, upon seeing Nanming, the anger on his face vanished, replaced by a smug smile.
"Hehe, I didn't expect to run into you like this, which saves me the trouble of looking for you."
[Night Killer] stood up and looked at Si Xiaobei behind Nanming with a mocking expression.
"Oh, why are you protecting a human? Have you developed feelings for one?"
Nanming stared at her coldly, "What do you want to do?"
Nanming's words were full of hostility, while [Night Killer] laughed disdainfully.
"Don't you know what we want to do? We just want to invite Lord Nanming, one of the core founders of our Light God Society, back to the Light God Society."
Si Xiaobei's pupils suddenly dilated, and she looked at Nanming with a bewildered expression.
Nanming gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with fury.
"There's no way I can go back! I'm already on the side of humanity! I could never betray humanity!"
[Night Killer] tilted his head, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.
“You are just a failed [Outsider]. Even if you are at the 'Ten Thousand Stars' level, you cannot use your abilities and you have no chance of defeating me.”
Nanming scoffed, "That's hard to say."
[Night Kill] Slowly bent down, placed his hands on the ground, and assumed an attack posture.
"Then let's give it a try!"
The black figure pounced on the two like a wild beast.
Nanming shoved Si Xiaobei aside, turned the straight knife in his hand, pointed it at his heart, and stabbed it down hard.
Just as the blade was about to pierce the skin, Night Killer's sharp tail suddenly lashed out.
Clang!
The straight sword was split in two, and Nanming's heart sank to the bottom the moment the sword broke.
[Night Kill] swiftly grabbed Nanming's head and slammed it against the wall beside him.
Bang!
