Chapter 17 Stop, stop! You're too cruel.

  "Ah——!" The most tragic scene in the world unfolded. Luo Xiao's mournful cry was so loud that it almost burst the eardrums of Zhuge Mingyue and the others. Luo Xiao covered his own **, rolled on the ground, and wailed nonstop. However, this nearly enclosed valley only echoed with the sound within the valley, unable to transmit it outwards. Therefore, Zhuge Mingyue and the other two felt that their eardrums were almost shattered.

  Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao stared foolishly at the scene, their hearts trembling. Both of them unconsciously made the same movement, covering their mouths. Their little hearts were all aflutter. It was too frightening, too cruel!

  "What are you still standing there for?!" shouted Zhuge Mingyue.

  Xue Zihao came to himself, picked up the bow that had fallen beside him, strung it and shot an arrow at Luo Hua, who was in agony. Wan Qichen summoned a Jiaotu beast, which charged forward and trampled Luo Hua mercilessly.

  "Mind your own business, whether it's Jin Zhong or Jin Gang, whoever gets hit will be finished!" Zhuge Mingyue watched as Luo Xiao was completely helpless and let out a miserable cry. With a triumphant smile, she stood with her hands on her hips, directing the others, "Go ahead, Haozi, Pangzi, settle your scores and vent your grievances!"

  Xue Zihao and Wan Qichen, after drinking the ordinary power potion given by Zhuge Mingyue earlier, used their strength to shoot arrows at Luo Hua, while the other commanded the earth beast to trample fiercely. The severely injured Luo Hua was unable to counterattack for a moment, his lower body in excruciating pain that almost made him lose consciousness.

  Zhuge Mingyue crouched on one side, watching the miserable scene, covering her face with both hands, peeking through her fingers, and occasionally taking a cold breath. She sighed pitifully: "So sad, so sad. Ah, when men are shot there, is it really that painful? However, I don't think I'll have the chance to verify it. What a pity."

  Wan Qi Chen and Xue Zi Hao's backs of their heads were all black lines, the two had no idea what to say anymore. However, the movements in their hands did not stop.

  Luo Xiao has been shot into a beehive, with multiple bones broken by the land beast. Now, lying there motionless, still holding his two legs together.

  "Stop, stop! You're too cruel. The man is dead, and you're still shooting." Zhuge Mingyue finally called out to the two men to stop, looking at Luo Hua who had long since stopped struggling. The way she looked so distressed and anguished made Xue Zihao and Wan Qichen's mouths twitch. Zhuge Mingyue's expression was like a weasel wishing a chicken a happy new year - it was too fake! It was so fake that it made one want to vomit blood.

  "Are you dead? Are you sure you're dead?" Zhuge Mingyue cautiously approached, poking Luo Hua with a branch to confirm that he was indeed dead. Only then did she rush forward, stomping on his corpse and cursing loudly, "Bastard, go die! You know how hard it is for me to squeeze out tears? You know how disgusting I find it to fawn over you? You know how my own skin crawls just thinking about it? You know how precious the sleeve arrow is? And yet it was wasted on a piece of trash like you. Go die, go die!"

  "He's dead!"

  "So cruel..."

  Wan Qi Chen and Xue Zi Hao were initially stunned, watching Zhuge Mingyue's movements, then the two exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and also hypocritically lamented with feigned sorrow.

  "My sleeve arrow!" Zhuge Mingyue was still yelling, turned around to find the one that had just been shot off target, carefully picked it up. The one that had hit Luo Xiao's place, she would rather die than take it back.

  Zhuge Mingyue squatted in front of Luo Xiao's corpse, facing Xue Zihao and Wan Qichen, saying: "What are you still stunned for?"

  "Ah? Oh!" Wan Xi Chen endured the pain and almost crawled over to reach out and find the arrow shaft on Luo Xiao's lower body.

  "What are you doing?" Zhuge Mingyue asked with disdain.

  "Isn't it the arrow in your sleeve?" asked Wan Xi Chen very seriously and doubtfully.

  "Get out of my sight! How disgusting, do you want it?!" Zhuge Mingyue was furious, and with a swift motion, she slapped him, "I told you to search him, take out all the good things on his body. He's so filthy, do you expect me to search him myself?"

  Wan Xi's face turned black, but he still obeyed and began searching Ro Xiao's corpse.

  "Zhuge, your sleeve arrow is really something. It's so formidable, making it impossible to defend against. I still can't believe we actually killed Luo Jiao, a B-level wanted criminal. It feels like a dream come true." Xue Zihao gazed at Zhuge Mingyue's sleeve with shining eyes. How did he feel that Zhuge Mingyue always had an ace up his sleeve? Too mysterious, too formidable! First, it was the enhanced strength potion, now it's the sleeve arrow.

  "Even the strongest man has a weakness. I made it myself, and it took a lot of effort to make." Zhuge Mingyue proudly rolled up her sleeves, revealing two small and exquisite crossbows, showing them to Xue Zihao. She would never tell Xue Zihao that these were made from materials bought with his own pocket money. In fact, the materials needed to make strength potions didn't cost that much. Xue Zihao had given her a lot of money, and she used it to make other things instead. She had made two small crossbows and hidden them in her sleeves.

  "Indeed." Xue Zihao shuddered, this statement was correct, as long as he was a man, the weakest point was the same. Xue Zihao carefully examined Zhuge Mingyue's small and exquisite crossbow, sighing in admiration, "Too exquisite!" Although he admired it so much, he didn't have any desire for it. Because he was an archer, if he relied on bows and crossbows, it wouldn't be very beneficial to his growth.

  At this time, Wan Xi Chen had already searched out everything on Luo Xiao's body. He found a tightly sealed cloth bag, and when he opened it, inside were two large gold ingots and about ten scattered silver coins, as well as an old, worn-out book.

  "What's this?" Xue Zihao leaned in, "This is a secret book for swordsmen. I don't quite understand it, but since Luo Xiao can appreciate it and has been treasuring it on him all along, it shouldn't be anything ordinary."

  "Nonsense! What's on Luo Xiao's body can't be fake!" Wan Xi Chen Bai gave Xue Zi Hao a white eye and replied impatiently.

  "Keep it first. The money belongs to me. Any opinions? You don't need to express your opinions, because they're useless." Zhuge Mingyue took all the money and shook her heavier purse, feeling unusually good.

  "No objection!" replied Wan Xichen and Xue Zihao in unison. The money was in Zhuge Mingyue's hands, where it could be put to the best use.

  "What now?" Wan Xi Chen and Xue Zi Hao let out a sigh of relief, but after relaxing, they only then realized that the place where Luo Xiao had struck them still hurt like hell.

  Zhuge Mingyue took a look at Luo Xiao and suddenly spat out a word: "Strip!"

  "Ah?" Xue Zihao was taken aback, not understanding what Zhuge Mingyue meant. "I'll be embarrassed. I can check my own injuries myself. Besides, my injury is not serious." Wan Qichen twisted his slightly chubby body and said with a red face.

  "I didn't ask you to strip! Like these fugitives, the good stuff is hidden in secret places, strip him bare." Zhuge Mingyue glared at Wan Qichen and pointed at Luo Xiao's corpse on the ground, saying viciously. Seeing the two hesitating, she snorted, "I don't want to touch this guy, you go!"

  "I'm coming!" Wan Xi Chen no longer hesitated, squatted down and stripped Luo Xiao completely naked. Sure enough, in Luo Xiao's underwear, a tightly wrapped waterproof oil paper package was found.

  Digression

  Whatever, the editor said my V collection is very unimpressive, many non-V members have collected it. I suddenly felt that this feeling was a bit like flies on a glass window. The future is bright, but there's no road to get there.
