The fastest update network, Mu Xiao had just fought beyond the limits of his physical body, causing the evolutionary energy contained in his blood vessels to become sluggish and unable to further self-heal. Even over-activating his mental powers affected multiple injuries on his body, making them worse.
So, Zhou Xuan, Shangguan Yunxin, Mu Xuan, Sun Xinyue, Jiang Yunwei... They were shocked and understood that he had been in great danger during the previous battle.
The injuries on Mu Shao's body seemed very serious, but his body did not lose a lot of blood, only the blood was dry, in fact he had three or four tenths of his combat strength, and soon after, his body could be in its heyday, even further.
"Zhou Xuan, come and take a look at the wound." Mu Xiao's eyes were clear and calm, his tone was neither hot nor cold, just like his usual tone.
Zhou Xuan's face was tired and pale, her wheat-colored skin seemed dull and had lost its healthy luster. Although she had Shangguan Wanxin by her side, she still gave off a sense of isolation and helplessness. Her body seemed to be missing a warm and radiant energy, as if that wild nature had been deeply buried away.
"Hmm." Zhou Xuan calmly walked in front of Mu Xiao, without saying much, only glanced at Mu Xiao earlier and slightly lowered her head, as if she didn't want to see Mu Xiao's sympathetic gaze.
She also has a strong sense of self-respect, especially in such situations.
"This beast is quite neat and tidy in its biting." Mu Xiao looked at the broken arms around him, and indeed, the wounds were very clean, with no protruding bones or blood vessels.
Zhou Xuan's expression was calm and indifferent, without any resentment or hatred, as if the person who had lost their arm was not herself.
"I don't know what you have to worry about? If it's worrying that I won't want you, then this concern is too melodramatic and unnecessary." Mu Xiao looked at her like this, roughly guessing a few things, and directly said in front of everyone, exposing this relationship.
"What did you say!" Zhou Xuan's face turned red as fire, under the sunset glow, her beautiful eyes sparkled with a hint of moisture, exuding a charming and alluring tenderness that made one want to protect her.
The crowd suddenly didn't react to Mu Xiao's words, but when they saw Zhou Xuan's originally pale face quickly warming up to a shy dark red flush, they suddenly realized.
The two had been having an underground affair all along.
Shangguan Xingyun had already guessed roughly and wasn't too surprised in her heart. Only Muxuan Yin was the most astonished, but the next moment, even more desolation and sorrow involuntarily submerged her mind.
"Ah, no wonder Big Sister always spoke highly of Mu Xiao, turns out they're related." Duan Lingling said with a smile.
"Zhou Xuan, you're not being honest." Sun Xinyue said coldly, expressing his dissatisfaction with Zhou Xuan's secrecy about her relationship.
"Go back and give a detailed account of what happened." Yan Shao Nan said solemnly.
"Xuan Jie didn't have a boyfriend before, we were worried about her, but now she finally found a man, I think it's pretty good." Xuan Mei Yi smiled slightly.
"Xuan, you should be able to rest assured now, right?" Jiang Yunwei teased with a gentle smile.
……
The five girls had a deep affection for Zhou Xuan, and they took turns teasing her until she was embarrassed. She glared at Mu Xiao fiercely, but originally her mood was like a dark cloud, after Mu Xiao's confession and the laughter of the five girls, her heart was filled with sweet love.
"Zhou Xuan, you come and kill this mutated lion. It can make up for the bloodline energy you overdrafted earlier, and it will even increase." Mu Xiao could see that she had also overdrafted her bloodline energy. This was a method of bursting forth with power. If one's vital energy was sufficient, there wouldn't be too much of a problem. On the contrary, if one's vital energy wasn't strong enough or if they overdrafted severely, their genetic resonance frequency would drop.
Fortunately, Mu Xiao had the means to absorb blood energy, and his body had always maintained sufficient blood gas, nourishing his cells and genes extremely robustly. Even if he overdrawn a bit this time, his cells and genes could withstand it without breaking apart.
Zhou Xuan's innate ability is the enhancement of "vitality", with cells having strong self-healing and vitality, and she only overdrafted the energy contained in her bloodline genes once, which had no significant impact.
Both of them just overdrafted their physical strength, only feeling hungry and empty, without causing a severe situation that would lead to a decline in genetic resonance frequency.
"You guys go absorb those enhanced springs on the ground too..." Mu Xiao glanced at Jiang Yue standing at the outer edge and said to Shang Guan Xuan Yin, "Since she has contributed to the battle, the enhanced spring should count as her share. You're in charge of telling her what type of absorption ability it is."
Muxiao has explained the characteristics of universal ability sources, and with Guan Xiang's wisdom and enlightenment, it is not difficult to understand. Without Muxiao's guidance, she can also achieve autonomous choice enhancement.
It's the same with women, after all, their bodies are their own, and they know what aspects of their bodies need to be strengthened.
"Hmm." Officer Yu Xian nodded and turned to walk in the direction of Jiang Yue. Zhou Xuan did not suffer from Mu Xiao's abandonment, and Officer Yu Xian put down her worries, but still felt heartache for Zhou Xuan losing his arm to save herself...
This kindness, how can I forget it? I must become stronger to repay this kindness, even the protection of Duan Lingling and others who have sacrificed their lives for me in the past... I don't want to be a burden and survive, I don't want them to sacrifice for me, I don't want to be the one being protected by them, but I want to be the one protecting them!
Shangguan Xing's determination solidified silently within herself.
A strong seed was quietly sprouting in her heart.
……
Others went to absorb the strengthening spring, and Mu Xiao finally comforted Zhou Xun's emotions.
"This time you've acted on your own again, but I won't blame you because I understand that Yuexin is your good friend and also our companion...". Mu Xiao's tone suddenly changed, and she said with a smile: "But you suspected that I would abandon you when you became useless, indirectly saying that I'm an unfeeling and unrighteous person. Shouldn't I punish you for that?"
"I've suffered such injuries, what more do you want!" Zhou Xuan's face was as red as blood, and she understood what kind of punishment Mu Xiao was referring to.
"It's just a broken limb, it's not like it's the end of the world." Mu Xiao said this with an air as if she had merely chipped a fingernail.
"It's just a broken limb! What's the big deal?! Why do you keep looking at me like that!" Zhou Xuan was like an enraged little wild cat, her tail fluffed up in agitation. "Are you comforting me or mocking me?!"
"Alright." Mu Xiao stretched out his hand and tapped her delicate nose, then pointed to the golden mutated lion below and said: "You go kill that beast first, I'll tell you a method to grow back your arm."
"What!" Zhou Xuan was shocked beyond measure, igniting a glimmer of hope.
She had mentally prepared herself to lose an arm, which would have greatly reduced her combat effectiveness, but Mu Xiao didn't abandon her and instead publicly announced their ambiguous relationship, effectively confirming the true nature of their bond. As a result, she felt a great sense of comfort in her heart, feeling that the road ahead wasn't necessarily dark, and gradually gaining confidence to face the days to come.
Now that I've heard Mu Xiao's words, I see a glimmer of new life.
"I've said it for the third time, kill this beast! I'll tell you slowly, and in this era of evolution, what's impossible? After evolving to a certain extent, even if your whole body is battered, you can recover. Let alone just one arm."
Mushan looked at her and couldn't help but sigh that being uncultured was really terrifying.
"I understand!" Zhou Xuan's eyes, like a cat's, were fiercely attractive and seductive but not showy. Her gaze was as sharp as a sword, and her whole body had regained its wild and lively aura.
She held another high-vibration electromagnetic military knife, struck out with a single blow, and burst forth with electric sparks, fiercely stabbing into the golden mutated lion's brain blood hole. A high-frequency electromagnetic force exploded on the blade, thoroughly turning the golden mutated lion's brain inside its head into mush.
A massive, blazing evolution source split into two streams, one large and one small, surging into Mu Shuo and Zhou Xuan's bodies. Instantly, the blood vessels and genes of both individuals seemed to have a flame burning within, as all their genes underwent a fiery transformation and optimization, giving birth to a vigorous life force akin to fire, filling up the empty genetic energy within them.
Because the Golden Variant Lion was beaten half to death by Mu Xi, he absorbed the most Evolution Source Spring, but that small amount of Evolution Source Spring is actually a very large portion of Evolution for Zhou Xun's low-frequency gene resonance.
On the other hand, the woodcutter's gene resonance is higher, a major source of evolutionary power, which is actually just a small stream.
His gene resonance frequency rose three times, a total of sixty-five times.
Before, Zhou Xuan had been fighting and killing a large number of ordinary zombies, as well as some stronger enhanced zombies, which had increased his genetic resonance several times. Now, with the absorption of this over-leveled evolution source, his genetic resonance directly rose to fifty-five times.
Then, a source of power with a fiery aura appeared on the Golden Variant Lion's body.
"What is this power?" Zhou Xuan felt that the crimson flames had a faint warmth, which was not the feeling of the hot weather, but came from the light itself.
"I thought it would be great to get an enhancement ability like Eye Technique, Sound Wave, or Super Physical Strength. But I didn't expect the one with the lowest probability to appear - 'Sunlight'." Mu Xiao said in extreme surprise.
This is a Yuanli system ability. Since Yuanli system abilities rarely appear in the early stages, this "Sunlight" ability is absolutely a great help for early battles.
"Is this ability good?" Zhou Xuan didn't quite understand.
"Very good." Mu Xiao said: "If it's solar source power, then its extremely strong potential is terrifying. However, this lion can't possibly have solar source power, having this 'sunlight' source power is already pretty good."
"Sunlight" and "sun" have different fonts before and after, but they are greatly different in ability. Because the "sun source power" has destructive and destructive properties, while the "sunlight source power" is much weaker and more gentle.
"This is a combat under the sunlight, with comprehensive amplification of genetic blood. It can also use sunlight to self-heal wounds, attack with scorching heat, restrain certain dark variants, and weaken variant monsters' nighttime amplification during nighttime battles..."
Muxiao explained, and Zhou Xuan suddenly realized the great value of this ability. For the new humans at this early stage, it was a rare treasure. She herself was also exceptionally moved, but she didn't dare to ask for it because she knew that such a powerful ability could only be truly utilized by Muxiao.
But she soon found out that she was wrong.
"This ability suits you well after absorption." Mu Xiao said seriously, without being polite.
"Are you sure?" Zhou Xuan asked Mu Xiao in surprise.
"Hmm." Mu Xi said thoughtfully: "I have my own plans and I'm not prepared to absorb the abilities of the Yuan Li system at this stage."
"That's good." Zhou Xuan didn't ask any further, and with a burst of excitement, quickly touched the source of that fiery red glow. ω·u⑻ updated the fastest web
