Chapter 142

General Jiang escaped from death and for a moment was unable to recover. He sat on the ground and stared at the two who came to him.

The woman bent down and reached out to him. Her eyes were gentle, and she had a somewhat familiar intimacy.

Since General Jiang became an adult, as his strength continued to increase, women began to look at him. These eyes had fascination, greed, admiration and awe.

But there was no emotion in the woman’s eyes. This feeling made him very strange, almost the same as when he looked at the young Xu Nian and other people in the team, showing a kind of care for the young.　　

He was the first strong man in Spring City, the leader of the Blizzard Corps, and was regarded as a pillar and a support by all members of the Corps. His strength and arrogance made almost everyone forget that he was just a 19-year-old boy.

General Jiang caught the hand, which was soft and powerful as it pulled him off the ground at once.

“It doesn’t matter, Lord Jiang,” Chu Qianxun stretched out her hand, almost wanting to touch General Jiang’s head, then turned to pat his uninjured shoulder.　

In her memory, General Jiang wasn’t taller than her, he was stubborn, and needed to be taken care of from time to time. He was just a child. Today, she pulled up a man.　

Chu Qianxun looked at General Jiang, who was a lot taller than her, with a lot of emotion in her heart. But it wasn’t the time for that. The battle wasn’t over yet, the Queen’s call when dying came, so all the blasphemers remaining in the entire cave began to flock in madly.

Chu Qianxun and Ye Peitian drilled out of the stone chamber, and together with Han Ao and others, guarded the narrow passageway and withstood the waves of attacks by the demons. Blizzard’s members, after getting rid of the psychic Queen’s mental power control, gradually began to restore their combat capabilities, and joined tenaciously into the battle.

…

The evening mist was heavy.　　

The outline of the ruins was stained with a faint afterglow by the setting sun. Occasionally, the snow kept falling from the twigs together, indicating that deep and calm battles were still taking place.　

In the end, a figure, a human figure, stood out of the exit of the cave.　

One followed by another.　　

Those hiding in the distance observing the situation couldn’t help but exclaim-

“It’s Blizzard, and the Red Wolf!”　

“General Jiang, Lord Jiang, did they… win?”　　

“They actually won. From now on, there is no need to worry about someone being caught by blasphemy into the devil’s cave.”　　

“We can come to the area around here for hunting with confidence.”

Although they chose to escape and wait to see when the war was unfavorable, when they saw that he finally succeeded in destroying the demon and was able to obtain peace, most people were still heartily excited.　　

General Jiang was now at the entrance of the cave. His arm was hung on his neck with a white bandage, and his silver armor was stained with blood. The soldiers coming out behind him were covered in blood, and they were all wounded. They helped each other to support the wounded and carried the companions’ bodies.

Those low-level crystal cores and materials used to make weapons that were to be loaded into the baskets caused a burst of envy.　　

They were greeted by cheers from all sides, and only those standing behind were the friends who lived. General Jiang raised his head and looked up at the sky in the distance which dropped the black curtain for this noisy battlefield.　　

The battle to annihilate the blasphemer’s den was discussed in the Spring City for several days. Compared with the soldiers who died in the battlefield, people were more enthusiastic about discussing the crystal cores. People often pay attention to the eye-catching fruits of victory and fragrant gossip news. The tragic corpses and heavy hearts under battles were often easily overlooked.　　

After the battle, General Jiang, the newly appointed city lord, thrived, and truly stabilized his status as the city lord. In addition, the biggest profit was taken by the Red Wolf mercenary group that wasn’t famous in Spring City. Not only had it harvested an amazing number of crystal cores and materials for making tools, but it had also become famous through the war, attracting a large number of saints to join it. Also because of the help at the critical moment, it got a close partnership with the Spring City No. 1 team. For a long time after that, the mid-level members of the two teams were able to easily obtain enhanced equipment and opportunities for rapid improvement, gradually widening the gap with other Corps in the Spring City.　　

But for most of the residents of Spring City, apart from having more talk after tea and dinner, there was no difference between the days of the past.　　

At the water collection point near the Tube Building, a long line of people came in early in the morning to collect water.　　

Jiang Xiaojuan dragged a water trailer and followed Ye Peitian, who was walking backwards with a large bucket in his hand.

“What a coincidence. Did you come out so early to fetch water?” Xiaojuan’s hair was tied up, revealing her snow-white skin, with a light makeup on the face. She looked beautiful and sexy.

“I live in the same building as you. Do you want to put the bucket on my trailer?” If a young girl said kindly, very few men expressed resistance.　　

But the man wearing the silver mask just turned his face a little, not even humming a reply. He walked away.　　

“Wait, wait a minute.” Xiaojuan dragged the cart to catch up, “Are you Qianxun’s husband? I’m also from Red Wolf, and I live downstairs.”

She was used to calling the couple together as husband and wife, but didn’t expect that it  instantly pleased Ye Peitian.
