Chapter 722: Chapter 722: Ning Mengyao’s Resolution
"Awoo!"
Accompanied by an angry roar,
a giant figure descended from the sky.
In just an instant, the well-guarded camp was thrown into utter chaos.
Hundreds of sorcerers looked on in shock as the King Kong-like giant ape rampaged through the base.
With a wave of its hand, container after container immediately crumbled to pieces.
Tons of supplies rolled around.
The support base they had struggled to build over several months was quickly in shambles.
"Quick, stop it... Stop it!"
Most of the elites had followed Beitiao Qian Naizi deep into the interior.
The ones left had joined the hunting teams to kill and capture the island’s demonic beasts.
So, most of the people here were logistical staff and injured withdrawn from the front lines.
Thus, when the giant ape burst in, there was hardly any strength to resist.
After all, not even the flames from the modern heavy machine guns could scratch it.
So a few sorcerers, who were still somewhat skilled, immediately rushed forward.
However, before they could get close, a woman had already pounced forward first.
"Get down!"
Empowered with new strength, Xu Zhi Rou was brimming with the will to fight.
With a slap, she directly froze the opponent into a block of ice.
She then seized the demonic sword in his hand and slashed at the people nearby.
As she cut her way through, the hatred awakened in her blood made her feel immune to fatigue.
"It’s only been a short day, and she has already changed so much... I suddenly feel so useless."
Ning Mengyao stood beside Lin Fan, watching Xu Zhi Rou below.
Although she was still no match for herself, that capability to fight and react, including the resolve,
is something she couldn’t achieve even now.
"That’s normal, you’re not skilled in the same things she is. Frost corpses are naturally warriors, with a bloodthirsty pursuit for battle, while Charming corpses are always masters of love and desire, not adept or willing to kill with bare hands. So don’t compare your weaknesses with someone else’s strengths, you are you, the irreplaceable you."
Lin Fan said, smiling as he wrapped an arm around Ning Mengyao’s slender waist.
If Xu Zhi Rou was a warrior that combined the physical with the spectral, then Ning Mengyao was a pure specter in combat.
With her Charming Skill, she doesn’t need to clash head-on and can still take down her opponent.
"So what you’re saying is, all I can do is seduce men," Ning Mengyao pouted.
This mastery in Charming Skill was good, but it was no match for Xu Zhi Rou’s decisive killing ability.
The sight of the knife carving into flesh, though bloody, had to be acknowledged as a form of beauty.
"That’s just a simplistic way to put it. After all, the emotional value you can provide is incomparable. Just one smile from you can make thousands of soldiers bow their heads. Isn’t that also a kind of skill, winning without a fight? Moreover, no matter what happened before, in this life, you are my greatest provider of emotions, isn’t that enough?"
Lin Fan teased as he pinched Ning Mengyao’s chin.
Recalling everything from the past, the two of them had truly relied on each other every step of the way.
Her every move was enough to make his heart shift with hers.
"I never expected you to become such a sweet talker, you’ve instantly made me feel so much better,"
Ning Mengyao leaned on Lin Fan’s shoulder.
His comfort was always the most heartfelt.
"Isn’t that because I’ve been eating your saliva?"
Lin Fan said with a mischievous smile, "Anyway, you’re my woman, and that alone is enough."
"Right, I’ll also be your best partner and supporter."
Ning Mengyao’s lips curled into a sweet smile, her thoughts from the previous night now firmer than ever.
She decided she would become Lin Fan’s best supporter.
"Hey, are you two just going to stand there and watch?"
After a fierce battle, Xu Zhi Rou had already dealt with anyone who could be fought.
Turning her head, she saw the two of them cuddling up to each other affectionately.
"It’s because you volunteered in the first place, just tell me if you need help."
Ning Mengyao’s figure flashed and she had already landed on the ground.
The remaining shrimp soldiers and crab generals no longer posed much interest.
"I don’t need help; I need someone to clean up the battlefield, not to watch you two being lovey-dovey. Isn’t the bed at home comfortable? Do you have to show off your affection here, acting as if you’re about to part ways?"
Xu Zhi Rou said in jest, joking around.
"Life’s partings and reunions can be so unexpected sometimes, who knows if tomorrow we’ll be separated? That’s why we must cherish every moment—you’ll understand that in time."
Ning Mengyao did not explain further, and in a flash, she pounced toward the nearby oil drums.
Since she had made her decision, destroying this place was the most basic task at hand.
"Bang!"
With a loud explosion, tens of tons of gasoline splashed into the air.
Some of the little "devils" who escaped from between the giant ape’s fingers were instantly engulfed in the fierce flames.
Xu Zhi Rou, holding the seized demonic blades, quickly fled from the raging inferno.
To her, these treasures were the greatest source of nourishment.
So she was already eager to start absorbing the demonic power from them.
"Clang!"
In less than an hour, all the demonic power was absorbed.
Looking at the rusty scrap metal on the ground, she suddenly felt unsatisfied.
"Let’s go inside, shall we? Didn’t you say all the elites are in there? I can’t wait to have a good time with them."
"Don’t rush, let’s have something to eat first."
Lin Fan clearly understood Xu Zhi Rou’s feelings.
But she hadn’t eaten a bite since last night.
Moreover, once they entered the core area, they didn’t know what risks they would face.
So before that, they had to make sure they were well-nourished.
"Alright then!"
Xu Zhi Rou, though in high spirits, still took a short break at Lin Fan’s request.
Ning Mengyao took out the dry food from her backpack, and the three of them ate while watching the giant ape in the distance.
The creature was still scouring the sea of flames for survivors, clearly intent on avenging the humiliation it suffered the day before.
It didn’t stop until it had smashed everything into the earth with its fists.
Only then did it return to the three of them.
Sitting on its behind, although the ape could not speak human language, it showed extraordinary loyalty.
Especially toward Ning Mengyao, it exhibited a submissive demeanor.
"What’s going on here, why do I feel like it listens to you very well?"
Having taken a seat on the giant ape’s shoulder again, Xu Zhi Rou curiously looked at the massive creature before her.
Could it be that this is a living King Kong?
"Don’t forget, I’m the master of emotions. Since this guy has feelings, it cannot escape the palm of my hand."
Ning Mengyao smiled and patted the giant ape’s ear, "It’s my Sun Wukong now, and it’s going to protect us on our journey to the Western Heaven."
"Alright then, who’d have thought I’d get the chance to play Tang Seng?"
Who would have imagined, Ning Mengyao’s Charming Skill worked even on the giant ape, Xu Zhi Rou couldn’t help but marvel.
"Wrong, Lin Fan is Tang Seng, you’re at most The White Dragon Horse... hahahaha!"
"The White Dragon Horse? Why... ah... you... you’re so bad... you’re the one being ridden!"
