Chapter 52 - Mommy, I’m a little scared

Terrorist attack!

This was the only thing that was in her head right now and at this very moment, she couldn’t really think. It was her first time experiencing a situation like this!

She regretted not insisting on his Teacher Nana to join them. She’s a Titled Duoluo! It’s too late to inform her now anyway. Furthermore, ever since Nana came, she had been around so she didn’t ask for Nana’s contact on her Soul Guidance communication device.

“Mommy! I’m a bit scared.” Lan Xuanyu curled in his mother’s embrace.

“Don’t be afraid, Mommy will protect you.” Her son’s words gave Nan Cheng great courage. No matter what, she must protect her son. With that thought, Nan Cheng became more clear-headed.

The terrorists attacked the Horizon Building and there were at least 10,000 people in this big building with over 100 levels. The trampoline park shouldn’t be an especially important target so rather than running around, it was better to hide here. The Zi Luo City police would quickly realize that something’s wrong here and the best option at that moment was to wait for help.

The trampoline sunk in slightly due to the weight so they were now almost on the ground. The Soul Guidance laser would sweep across occasionally but it wasn’t able to reach them.

The screams reduced greatly and an ice-cold voice echoed through the Soul Guidance megaphone.

“Everybody, do not move! Move and you’ll be killed!”

With the previous massacre although it wasn’t known how many people were killed, there was no doubt that everyone here was petrified.

In a moment, there were cries, screams, and moans coming from the children

Nan Cheng’s breathing was rapid. She hugged Lan Xuanyu tightly for fear that they would be noticed and just then, she heard a buzzing sound. She felt like something flew up and at the next second, a beam of light from the sky suddenly shone into the trampoline park.

Nan Cheng lifted her head to see a few people wearing small-sized mechas hovering in the air with a set of searchlights shining from their shoulders.

These small-sized mechas were fully black and before Nan Cheng could react, seven to eight beams of light shone on her.

“Spirit Master, KILL!” Following the order, over ten beams of lights fell from the sky and went straight in Nan Cheng’s direction.

Nan Cheng wasn’t a combat Spirit Master so her combat experience was simply too weak. After she realized that something wasn’t right, she didn’t remove the layer of ice around her body and when the light was shone on her, how could the reflection of the ice shield not attract any attention?

Nan Cheng exclaimed in shock and Spirit Rings appeared beneath her feet swiftly. Her Spirit Rings had recently undergone an upgrade and her six purple Spirit Rings lit up at the same time.

The first Spirit Ring glistened and a layer of ice fog enveloped both her and her son, isolating herself from the sight of the outside world. At the same time, she carried Lan Xuanyu and rolled sideways with a thick ice shield suspended over their heads to block those death rays.

Nan Cheng was a female, after all, and when she was cultivating, she didn’t plan on entering a combat unit so the vast majority of her additional Spirit Skills were for defense. To her, self-defense was enough and this ice shield was her third Spirit Skill.

Purple Spirit Rings signified a thousand-year Spirit Ring and with her Spirit Emperor rank, this ice shield was relatively strong.

But at this moment, she was panicking and at a loss, she also had a child with her! In addition, she didn’t know how many enemies there were and being surrounded by so many powerful enemies, she really didn’t know what to do.

“Mommy!” Lan Xuanyu called out in her embrace and this call seemed to bestow great courage upon Nan Cheng — she must protect her son whatever it takes!

A mother’s love could usually arouse the greatest strength of a woman. Nan Cheng pounced forward bravely and leaped on a trampoline with Lan Xuanyu in her arms. Then, she charged toward a corner. She vaguely remembered that there was an emergency exit there.

She didn’t know how many enemies or how strong they were. Hence, running out was their only option.

The ice fog was very useful in shielding to the extent that the rays in the sky mostly landed on empty spaces. Only a small minority managed to hit their target but those were blocked by her ice shield.

Nan Cheng was a Spirit Emperor, after all, so she’s extremely fast and after a few leaps, she was already close to that small door.

But just at this very moment, she suddenly felt a suffocating aura coming from the front. She instinctively carried Lan Xuanyu and turned away sideways and at the same time, three ice walls that were three meters high were erected and blocked it.

“Boom, boom, boom!” Three rumblin0g sounds resounded one after another and the ice walls broke into pieces. A black mecha appeared right there.

It wasn’t the same as the small-sized mecha that the others used. This mecha was six meters tall and was clearly made from rare metal. It exudes a faint glow and with the large sledgehammer in its right hand, breaking the ice walls appeared to be effortless. The propeller at its back flashed and in the next moment, Nan Cheng found it right next to them with its sledgehammer coming down.

Nan Cheng’s face was filled with terror and at that second, she had a crazy aura around her.

‘No way, I must protect my son!’

She hugged Lan Xuanyu close to her. She curled her body to let her back to face that mecha. The third Spirit Ring on her glistened her ice shield was released at full force. Not only that, her sixth Spirit Ring lit up as well and a layer of ice ring shot outward.

The ice ring was Nan Cheng’s strongest Spirit Skill!

The black mecha got hit by it and it stiffened up immediately as a layer of white frost appeared on its surface. She thought that she was safe but in the next moment, the mecha turned red and all of the cold from its body was dispersed instantly. Its sledgehammer was slowed down but it was still strong enough to smash the ice shield on Nan cheng’s back.

“Boom——” The ice shield broke into pieces. Nan Cheng tried her best but she was completely swept out.

“Wa!” Even though most of the force was removed, a portion of it still landed on her and Nan Cheng only felt a metallic taste in her throat as she spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Mommy——” Lan Xuanyu screamed. He had a keen perception and when Nan Cheng was hit, he could feel his mother’s weakness.

Just at this moment, he wasn’t afraid at all. Nan Cheng’s body was sent flying and thankfully, they landed on a trampoline and both mother and son’s bodies bounced a little.

The intense pain and weakness were spread across her whole body. She suddenly loosened her grip, setting Lan Xuanyu free from his mother’s embrace but by then, the gold-patterned Blue Silver Grass was already wrapped around his arms.

His left hand shook and an ice awl shot toward the black mecha that was flying in the air. This little fella actually stood there and yelled, “Do not hurt my Mommy.”

The black mecha paused and a lustrous Spirit Guidance cannon made of black metal flipped upon its shoulders. The mouth of the cannon shone as it aimed it towards the mother and her son.

“Spirit Masters are not allowed to live, they would never let change so this mother and son must die!”
