Destiny is ashes

Chapter 31 They Are Hungry
"Uh... it's my fault." An Jing didn't know what to say, so he could only apologize, and then got a soft "hmm" in response from Bai Qinghan.

Indeed, Bai Qinghan is not stupid. On the contrary, she is extremely smart. She can even be said to be the most talented one among the 108 people except An Jing. How could she tell these secrets?

If it weren't for An Jing, who also knew the nature of the Demon Cult, she wouldn't have said a word.

The reason why Bai Qinghan thanked An Jing before was because she felt a sense of ease from An Jing's actions and mentality.

——He has enough confidence to subdue me and not hurt me.

——You don’t have to fight without killing.

After being knocked down by An Jing's three solid punches, Bai Qinghan felt an unprecedented sense of relief - the reason why she instinctively used heavy punches before was because she was afraid.

She was afraid that if she didn't kill others, she would be killed by others.

This thought made her tremble all over and Bai Qinghan couldn't control herself at all.

On the contrary, after being knocked down by An Jing, a peer of her age, she finally woke up from the dream of killing and being killed, and was able to face all those who sparred with her with a normal mentality.

After that, Bai Qinghan often came to An Jing to chat.

Most of the time she came to ask An Jing about topics related to martial arts, as well as techniques for holding back and conserving strength.

She was extremely curious about this 'non-killing' martial art, just like a person who had eaten too much rice suddenly ate a dumpling and immediately became interested in this different staple food.

Since An Jing was the only one who could calm Bai Qinghan down, and no one was willing to spar with Bai Qinghan, the others were not curious about their communication and the sudden sparring. They just felt that An Jing was worthy of being the 'senior brother', and he was really capable and responsible.

Except Gu Yeqi.

"Be careful, Brother An, that guy might have some bad intentions!"

She was quite wary of Bai Qinghan, always feeling that this dangerous bad girl intended to do something bad to An Jing - in fact, this was also what most people thought of Bai Qinghan, they always felt that the reason why Bai Qinghan often pestered An Jing was to find an opportunity to avenge her defeat.

They really thought too much.

An Jing will not lose!

Just like that, Bai Qinghan would come to chat with An Jing and others whenever he had time, and they would even exercise together. Although they were not in the same group, they often acted together.

Later on, even Gu Yeqi tacitly agreed to Bai Qinghan's participation in the action.

Although she still often complained that this "gloomy", "quiet", "porcelain doll-like" and "two-faced" girl definitely had ulterior motives, the relationship between the two had improved a lot since Bai Qinghan was willing to lend her long, straight black hair to Gu Yeqi to braid for "play".

The rare peaceful days passed quickly.

During this process, An Jing has been trying to go to the 'Hanging Life Valley' to find the second fragment of the sword spirit.

But unfortunately, for some reason, the security at Xuanming Manor has been much stricter recently. It is okay to stroll around the manor, but it is absolutely impossible to leave.

An Jing and Jian Ling guessed that there might be some disturbance in the outside world Dachen, because in recent times, the supply of materials in Xuanming Manor has been reduced a lot, and An Jing's food has become less. It's not that they don't give him food, but that he really has no food.

That might also be an opportunity for An Jing to continue training.

He must be prepared, accumulate strength, and be ready to erupt at the most critical moment.

An Jing knew very well that he could not save all those disciples who called him "senior brother".

Many of them have already walked into the evil path and have been possessed by evil spirits. The madness in their eyes is obvious.

If he had met himself before the sword spirit, he would probably only be able to save himself. After meeting the sword spirit, he might have been able to save Cang Linzu and Gu Yeqi, or even more people. But facing dozens of instructors at the inner breath realm and the medicine deputy envoy at the inner strength realm, he couldn't save everyone. It wasn't a question of how much power he had, but a question of whether it was a miracle or not.

But... An Jing will try his best.

Do your best to save whoever you can.

Save as many as you can.

The last days are coming fast.

someday.

Bai Qinghan once again approached An Jing who was practicing the art of joint attack with his teammates.

"Hey, Qinghan, can't you see we are practicing? Do you want to spy on our tactics?"

Gu Yeqi stopped in front of An Jing with some dissatisfaction. This was the idea of ​​most of the boys and girls. The reason why Xuanming Manor taught them the art of combined attack in battle formations was definitely to test their results. Each team was now urging themselves to strengthen their training for possible "competitions" in the future.

Although the teachers knew that these children were overthinking, why did they have to tell them the truth since they could let them work hard on their own without them having to supervise them?

Therefore, with the instructor's tacit approval, the competition among the twelve groups had already begun secretly.

Bai Qinghan is the leader of the third group 'Zuozi'. Unlike in battle, as a leader, she still makes the team members feel at ease. After all, who wouldn't want to have a captain who dares to fight and charge?
Gu Yeqi knew this exactly, so he stopped Bai Qinghan with some dissatisfaction - it would be fine if they just played together normally, but during training, the captain of Group Three always came over. It turned out that he wanted to spy on their Group One's tactics, right!

"Just looking for the eldest brother."

Bai Qinghan just shook his head slightly at Gu Yeqi, then looked past the confused girl with pigtails in front of him and said calmly to An Jing who looked solemn: "They are hungry."

"Big Brother, they are all hungry."

"now?"

Unlike the other group of people who looked confused, An Jing frowned solemnly after hearing this, then nodded to Bai Qinghan: "I understand."

After Bai Qinghan left, An Jing cautiously turned sideways and looked towards the attic on the side of the martial arts arena.

"Keep practicing!" An Jing let out a long breath and said in a deep voice, waving his hand to signal the other team members to keep up with him: "Don't slack off, get serious!"

Medicine cabinet.

"The quality of this batch...is much better than the previous batch."

On the top floor of the medicine pavilion, Deputy Medicine Envoy and Instructor Li overlooked the training ground not far away.

This training ground may look ordinary, just a layer of rammed earth, but in fact it is quite special. It has five layers in total: a layer of soil, a layer of gravel, a layer of soil, a layer of sand, and another layer of soil. It is made of five rammed layers and is called five-in-one soil.

Such a venue is sturdy and durable, and it is not easy for beginners to fall and get injured. In order to open up such a manor and build such a martial arts field in the deep mountains and forests, the Tianyi Sect has put a lot of thought into it.

Looking at the dozens of people wearing cotton armor and shouting at each other in the martial arts arena, the Deputy Medicine Envoy, who usually looks like a dead man, couldn't help but smile: "I wonder how many 'compatriots' can be found among these materials."

"We have gathered 108 Tiangang and Disha, all of whom have completed the Twelve Chenci and Nine Yaoxing. This is much better than the previous times when there were only Tiangang, Disha, or sixty Zhoutian. Moreover, they are all survivors of the disaster, not the inferior goods bought from the gangs."

The one-eyed Instructor Li stood behind him, looking around the room, and said with a firm tone: "No matter what kind of fate they are, at least one true 'star fate' or 'evil fate' will come out this time."

"Add to that the five official disciples who had already awakened their 'fate' when they were found... hehe, the Northern Envoy will surely be very pleased!"
