Chapter 2 Kid, hide behind me
Wow!——
An icy cold wind blew between heaven and earth, and the rain became heavier and heavier, like a long river hanging down from the sky, falling to the world.
"It's raining again."
Lan's clothes and hat were soaked by the rain.
Every time I go on a mission, it always rains.
This time is no exception.
Lan placed Qian Renxue on the ground.
Qian Renxue slowly closed her eyes.
It seems he followed his own advice.
It is better for one person to die than for two people to die.
Many images flashed through Qian Renxue's mind.
She is the daughter of the Pope of Wuhun Palace, and her grandfather is one of the three peerless Douluo on the mainland. She is a person who has stood on the top of the mountain since she was born.
But her childhood was not complete,
It can even be said to be dark.
She had high expectations since she was born. Her father and grandfather were very strict with her. Until now, Qian Renxue has no friends of her own.
And her biological mother never took the initiative to talk to her. She could feel that her mother looked at her with hatred and disgust...
She didn't know what she had done wrong to make her mother so unhappy.
She will always try her best to make her mother happy.
But the reality is very cruel.
No matter how hard she tries,
The only response she received was a cold word from her mother.
roll.
But until now,
She is only an eight-year-old child!
At this moment,
A flicker of relief flashed through the young Qian Renxue's heart.
Think about it carefully,
Maybe death isn't so scary after all.
But,
When did I start not being afraid of death?
While Qian Renxue was thinking,
There was a sudden pain in her head.
"Kid, don't be distracted."
"Hide behind me."
Lan's voice rang in Qian Renxue's ears.
However, this time Lan's voice was not as cold as before.
Qian Renxue covered her head and looked at Xiang Lan's back.
What does he mean by this?
Before Qian Renxue could figure it out,
Ghost Tiger has launched its final attack!
I saw,
The huge body of the ghost tiger was blurry and illusory, splitting into three instantly.
This is Ghost Tiger’s innate soul skill, Shadow Clone!
The three ghost tigers came towards Lan together, and the terrifying pressure was rampant!
Lan's expression remained calm, and he slowly raised the shark blade in his hand, quietly feeling the raging rainstorm between heaven and earth.
"Ho ho ho!!!"
The three ghost tigers jumped high into the air, opened their bloody mouths and rushed towards Lan.
Qian Renxue looked at the indifferent Lan, her little hands nervously clenching the blood-stained skirt.
Lan's words just now echoed in her mind.
At this moment,
The waves moved.
He raised the shark blade, and an aqua-blue shark suddenly jumped out from behind him. The shark opened its bloody mouth, and its sharp teeth instantly penetrated the ghost tiger's body!
Guihu's eyes dimmed instantly.
Time seems to be frozen,
The rain stayed in mid-air.
Qian Renxue's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, and her purple gem-like eyes imprinted this scene deeply in her mind.
thump!
Ghost Tiger's body fell to the ground.
A black ten-thousand-year soul ring floated from Guihu's body.
Along with it, there is actually a ten thousand year soul bone!
This surprised Lan very much.
Lan put the ten thousand year soul bone into his bag, and the shark spirit disappeared behind him.
It was the rainstorm that helped him.
Otherwise, he would not be able to kill this 50,000-year-old ghost tiger with one blow.
Looking at the fallen ghost tiger, Qian Renxue's heart skipped a beat again. Before she could speak, Lan's voice came.
"You go."
"Before I change my mind."
"I won't leave." A look of determination flashed across Qian Renxue's childish face: "If I hadn't died, my eldest brother would have failed in his mission and would definitely be punished..."
"How about, big brother, join our Wuhun Hall?"
"Our Wuhun Palace is one of the most powerful forces on the mainland. With my father and my grandfather here, no one will bully you..."
Qian Renxue tried to persuade Lan to join Wuhun Hall.
But there was still only one cold word in response to her.
Walk.
A tear dropped from the corner of Qian Renxue's eyes, her expression extremely aggrieved.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
She didn't even cry when she faced death.
One word from Kelan completely broke her heart.
Suddenly, Qian Renxue took out a knife and put it on her neck.
Lan's expression remained calm when he saw the back, "Threatening your own life to an assassin who wants to kill you?"
"What a stupid move."
Hearing Lan's words, Qian Renxue smiled slightly, "An assassin lets go of his mission target."
"Isn't this even stupider?"
Lan was silent.
The sound of raindrops around them became louder and louder, even drowning out the voices of the two of them.
Lan looked at Qian Renxue, a hint of complexity flashed in her eyes, and said softly: "Aren't you afraid of me?"
"I have killed many people, many, many"
Qian Renxue shook her head, "I'm not afraid."
"Big brother didn't kill Xiaoxue."
"Xiaoxue can feel that big brother is just like Xiaoxue."
"What's the same?" Lan asked.
"The same fear of loneliness, fear of not being able to see freedom."
Qian Renxue's voice echoed quietly in Lan's mind. He couldn't imagine what grief and despair the little girl in front of him had gone through to make her say such words.
Suddenly, Qian Renxue's hand holding the knife was a little harder, and the tip of the knife cut through Qian Renxue's white neck, and bright red blood flowed down the blade.
"Xiaoxue doesn't want to see her elder brother go back and be punished. She doesn't want to lose her, even if it means giving her life."
This scene seems a bit dreamy.
It had only been half an hour since the two met.
But she could have given up her life for him.
Lan is also a person in darkness,
He can understand,
If people live in boundless darkness for a long time, as long as there is light, even if it is a glimmer, they will chase and catch it regardless of their own safety, even at the cost of their lives.
But what he doesn’t know is that
The moment he decided to give up the mission and stand in front of the girl, he had become the ray of light in the girl's dark world.
Lan took one step forward and instantly moved his body behind Qian Renxue.
He knocked Qian Renxue unconscious and placed him next to a big tree.
Qian Renxue leaned against the big tree quietly, with two undried tears on her dirty face.
Lan gently wiped away the stains on Qian Renxue's face, and raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a smile from the heart.
"Kid, live well."
"It will protect you."
Lan placed the shark blade in his left hand on Qian Renxue's hand.
He stood up and walked slowly towards the distance, the blue scarf around his neck fluttering in the wind in the rainy night.
His life has been shrouded in darkness,
But her life shouldn't be like this.
Imp,
I hope you can live well with my freedom.
……………
"Big brother...big brother...don't, don't leave Xiaoxue!"
Qian Renxue suddenly sat up from the bed.
Her breathing was extremely rapid. She had just had a dream.
A dream about sharks.
In a dream,
Qian Renxue was wandering alone in the boundless sea. Countless sea soul beasts wanted to eat her, but whenever she encountered danger, a shark would always come forward and block her. Drive away anyone who wants to harm her.
"Young Master, are you awake?"
"Go and inform His Majesty the Pope that she is awake, young master."
Beside, two middle-aged men looked excited.
They were Snake Spear and Agatha who were responsible for protecting Qian Renxue.
