Essence Holy Alliance (6)

Chapter Six: Conversation

"Tribe? Alliance?"
"That's right, we are all..."

"Boom~~" Suddenly, a landslide occurred ahead, blocking the road with rocks.

"What's happening? The gate, the Burning Legion is coming!"
"So fast? Approximately how many?"
"Not many, two Doomguards and several Hellfire."
"Alright, you lead the brothers forward first, leave some behind with me to stop the Burning Legion."
"Alright."

"Gate brother, what happened?" Xiao Shi asked after seeing the gate had stopped.
"The Burning Legion is here, there are two Doomguards and several Hellfire."
"Oh? So do you need my help, Gate brother? You rest first, I'll go right away."
After saying that, Xiao Shi led a group and rushed toward the Burning Legion, regardless of whether the gate agreed or not.

"Gate, aren't we going to help?" Dan Ding asked beside the gate.
"You know Xiao Shi's personality well enough."
"Sigh..." Both sighed simultaneously.

"Let's retreat. She loves fighting so much, let her go fight."
"Alright."
"Hope she doesn't get into trouble," Gate thought to himself. He had known Xiao Shi for quite some time. Although the Tribe and the Alliance were temporarily allies, small conflicts still often happened. He and Xiao Shi frequently worried about these little matters, but most of the time, it was Gate who made concessions. With Xiao Shi's personality, it could be troublesome to deal with her.

"Sigh... what am I thinking about?" Gate didn't know why he felt this way. Maybe... he really was worried about her.

Xiao Shi's group quickly dealt with the Burning Legion and then caught up with Gate.

"Gate brother, why aren't we moving forward?" Xiao Shi asked when she caught up and saw that Gate had stopped again.

"We can't move forward."
"Haha... Gate brother, you're joking again..."
"Do I still have the mood to joke with you now?" Gate didn't even notice that his tone toward Xiao Shi was slowly changing.

"Haha... how would I know…"

Gate looked ahead and said lightly, "Someone has betrayed us and occupied Pingyuan."

"Oh? Who?"
"Huangfu Chaoyun."
"Him... I'm telling you, Gate brother, this is your fault. I've always said you need to manage your subordinates properly. Look, now he has betrayed us, and we still have the Burning Legion behind us. Isn't this a two-front war?"“Mm, this is indeed my fault. We're ready to take it down now, you should rest first...” “Mm, okay, Big Gate, I'll go rest first...” Xiaoshi said, then turned to leave. “Xiaoshi.” Dàmén called after Xiaoshi, “Can we have a word?” “Dàmén, is there anything you can't say face to face...” Though she said that, Xiaoshi still walked toward the open space Dàmén indicated. “Xiaoshi, I want to trouble you with something.” “Yo! Big Gate, when have you ever troubled me with work?” “This battle may be quite fierce, and we may not be able to look after them.” “Them, the humans?” “Mm.” “So you want me to protect them?” “No, I want to trouble you to teach them some skills so they can survive. Life is unpredictable, and you won't always be able to protect them.” “Well...” “You can't?” “I can, but...” “But what?” “But you must, so they can survive. Life is unpredictable, and you won't always be there to protect them.” “But you have to agree to one condition.” “What condition?” “I'll tell you later.” “Okay, I agree.” “Dàmén!” 213 ran over and interrupted their conversation. “Big Gate, I'll go first... remember our agreement...” “Dàmén...” 213 explained the situation to Dàmén. “Mm, let's follow your plan.” “Mm.” Night After being strongly obstructed by Qiang, everyone had no choice but to camp nearby, preparing to attack and take Pingyuan the next day. Black Horse and the others were sent to Xiaoshi's tent. Xiaoshi's tent was simply set up; in front was a chair, behind the chair was a screen, and behind the screen were a bed and some daily items. At this moment, Xiaoshi sat in the chair, dressed in simple clothes. Her long black hair released a faint fragrance, fascinating any man who saw her. Black Horse and the others were no exception—they stared at Xiaoshi the moment they entered the tent. “Miss, please go out with me... hehe...” the Chinese butler teased. “Go pick up your junk...” Black Horse pushed the Chinese butler aside, walked in front of Xiaoshi, and said sincerely, “Miss, would you like to dance?”“Hehe…” Xiao Shi laughed, laughing in an extremely enchanting way. “Handsome guy, sorry, I don't like men with long hair…”

“Haha…” The others nearby laughed so hard they couldn't move.

Xiao Shi stood up and walked toward Wang Ying. “Little sister, tell your sister what your name is?”

“Ran.” At this moment, she could no longer remember her own name. The only word that left a deep impression in her mind was 'Ran,' so she called herself Ran.

“Oh, that's a pretty name.” Qing Shi came back and sat in the chair. “Do you know why I called you all here?”

“Hehe… Xiao Shi is feeling lonely…” Someone who always liked to flirt with pretty girls spoke. Ever since seeing Xiao Shi, he felt alive again; this kind of girl was just too passionate.

“Hehe… Handsome guy, you're wrong…”

“Could it be that Xiao Shi is looking for some excitement?” The god nearby couldn't help but chime in.

“No…” Xu Liang touched his own head to indicate his short hair. “I think Xiao Shi needs a handsome man with short hair, like me…”

As soon as Xu Liang finished speaking, he immediately received four eyeballs rolled at him in response.

“Hehe… You're all wrong. Then I'll have to punish you…”

“We're willing to be punished by Xiao Shi!” the five said in unison.

“All right, let me get back to the main point. I called you here on Brother Da Men's behalf. He wants me to teach you some life-saving skills. On the battlefield, we can't protect you forever; you can only rely on yourselves. So, from tomorrow, special training begins.”

“We'll teach you some skills to prolong your life…” The five sneered lecherously.

“Hehe…” But this time Xiao Shi didn't behave like before; instead, she directly gave them a Holy Light Judgment.

“Ah…” The five lay on the ground, foaming at the mouth…

“Ran.”

Ran had been standing nearby the entire time, her expression never changing, presenting a kind of cold beauty.

“What is it?”

“From now on, stay by my side.”

“Okay.”
