"If we keep talking, people are going to die!" Li Qianxia waved her hand, and suddenly Xiao Wu felt an overwhelming force of wind hit him. By the ti he opened his eyes again, he had already dropped from the Cloud Platform and was plumting towards the ground.
Crackers giggled excitedly, sticking his head out from the Cloud Platform, eager to watch the commotion.
A girl nad Qing Shui was in a life-and-death crisis at this mont.
With the great sword rotating on her shoulder and her back, or being kicked out by her legs, sweeping like a pinwheel, these sand pirates dared not to approach her.
Once Qing Shui closed the distance, she quickly killed them in a few swift moves.
While killing, Qing Shui kept one thing in mind, a sand pirate group of a hundred people definitely had a leader.
The great sword swept out, but at an awkward angle, she only managed to smack a sand pirate away with the flat of the blade, when suddenly, she caught a flash of cold light from the corner of her eye.
It felt as though a water-absorbing creature was creeping up her spine, a chilling horror surging forth.
Qing Shui stepped back with her left leg, pressed down with her right knee, and gripped the sword hilt with both hands.
She leaned back her body, flung it with all her might, and the great sword, like an enraged dragon leaving its nest, rose magnificently from the sand.
Whoosh!
The sound of the wind roared.
The sand pirate coming straight at her widened his eyes, the reflection of the great sword growing larger and larger in his pupils.
In the nick of ti, he rolled over, the "sand-slide board" under his feet puncturing the sand surface with proportionate holes.
"Thud!" The great sword struck the ground, splashing gravel, the pricking pain like needles on his face.
Such terrifying strength!
But that's as far as it goes!
The sand pirate leader's curved blade headed straight for Qing Shui's nape.
It was only at this mont that Qing Shui realized the chill she felt earlier did not co from that flash of cold light, but from this man!
After a full-force swing, the great sword in her hand was as heavy as a sand cal beast, it was too late. The scorching sun hung high, and the man's shadow had already fallen upon her...
Splat!
The sand pirate leader split in two, and amid the gushing blood, a strangely dressed man stood behind the fallen leader.
"Are you okay?" Xiao Wu said what he had rehearsed.
Qing Shui's heart pounded wildly, and it took a while for her to catch her breath after the close brush with death.
"Thank you..."
"Earthlings!" The sand pirate who had rolled away to avoid the great sword earlier shouted in surprise and fear.
Not long ago, the clouds over Four Seasons Star had outlined mission words for everyone to see; this oddly dressed man with strangely colored hair was definitely the 'Earthling' ntioned in the mission!
"Wow!" The sand people all turned to look at Xiao Wu. The battlefield fell eerily silent, with only the sound of sand creatures gulping down blood. This update is available on novel⦿fire
The wind blew through, and the yellow sand, like golden dust, fluttered in the air.
"Run!" In the next instant, the sand pirates suddenly stepped onto the 'sand-slide boards' and scattered in all directions, leaving trails of sand behind them.
Above on the Cloud Platform, Turquoise Pool gave Crackers a aningful glance, and Crackers nodded, leaping from the Cloud Platform to follow the gang of robbers.
"Um..." Xiao Wu, not knowing what to do, stood still under the gaze of the sand people.
Qing Shui bent down, shouldered the great sword embedded in the sand, and upon standing, casually picked up a sand creature and squeezed it until it burst.
The scant water within the sand creature's body seeped into her palm - for sand people could absorb water through any part of their bodies.
"Did you co to kill us?" Qing Shui licked her still dry lips and looked up to ask.
She was only one ter sixty tall, not only barefoot but her feet were also sinking into the sand layer, making her seem even less than one ter fifty.
"No, no, not at all!" Xiao Wu hastened to say, "I ca to rescue you."
Qing Shui sized him up with clear eyes: "Thank you."
"You're welco." Xiao Wu smiled.
Qing Shui spread her hands, and in the sunlight, let the wind blow away the sand creature from her palm, now deprived of water: "Wind and Light Blessing."
"You can go. We won't tell anyone we t an Earthling," Qing Shui turned and walked towards her sand cal beast.
"Um..." Xiao Wu still stood there dumbfounded.
What about the hero saving the beauty?
"It failed," Li Qianxia mused with a thoughtful expression, considering the reasons for the failure.
After much thought, she could only co up with one reason: Not handso enough!
What else could it be? Her strength had far surpassed theirs.
As for minor issues like being from different planets, from a girl's psychological perspective, Li Qianxia felt those weren't important criteria.
"Judging by the girl's tone, do the people of this planet not take us seriously?" Turquoise Pool murmured to herself.
"If 79 players ca to Earth and said they wanted to conquer us in 15 days, killing 60% of communicable life forms, there wouldn't be many who would take them too seriously either," Li Changzhou felt it was only natural.
"What do we do now?" Li Qianxia asked again.
"What else can we do? Just go for it. But before that—" Li Changzhou turned to look at Yang Qinglan, "Fairy, please show them a little color, let them know the prowess of Earthlings."
Yang Qinglan, holding Ruyi, struck the cloud below.
An A level Skill strengthened three tis.
Boom!
The desert collapsed, and before the three sand cal beasts could fall, swarming springs arose, swallowing up all people and beasts.
White waves churned, the sunlight was dazzling, and a lake appeared on the desert floor, its surface smooth as a mirror!
"Glug glug!" A series of dense bubbles, like chimneys in the water, stood in the lake, as the sand people's skin automatically absorbed the water.
With a large amount of water entering the bloodstream, the blood diluted, causing hemolysis, elevated blood potassium leading to ventricular fibrillation, and the heartbeats gradually stopped.
The weak-bodied were acutely water intoxicated.
