Chapter 22 Can drink a cup without
Ling Yunxiao walked over to An Qingyu, who was obviously waiting for him, sat down in front of him, and casually opened a can of cold beer.
"What do you want from me?"
"I've already had the drop of blood you gave me tested, and I've also swallowed the other drop."
I have personally verified my thoughts; this drop of blood should never exist in this world, not even with the power brought by your divine ruins.
Therefore, it has been ruled out…
"After eliminating all the impossibilities, what remains, however unbelievable, must be the truth? Are you Conan?"
Hehe... Conan, what did you discover? You should think carefully before you speak.
Ling Yunxiao had already finished his beer. He interrupted An Qingyu and casually opened another can of beer.
An Qingyu was stunned for a moment, unsure whether Ling Yunxiao was threatening him or joking. However, thinking about everything the little mouse had been sharing his perspective with recently, he couldn't help but smile.
"Senior Brother Ling, are you trying to scare me? Don't do that. You said yourself, I'm just a kid."
The truth I discovered is complex, but simply put, you are not Ling Yunxiao, nor even from this world. Otherwise, you wouldn't have appeared with an out-of-order divine ruin, and possessed such wondrous abilities.
An Qingyu smiled calmly. Ling Yunxiao suddenly looked up. He really didn't expect that An Qingyu, who had the only correct answer, could be so terrifying.
"Senior Brother Ling, it seems I was right. Don't worry, I'll keep this to myself. After tonight, no one in this world will know your secret."
However, I have a piece of advice for you: if you don't have the power to change the outcome, don't let everything change easily.
Ling Yunxiao was truly shocked this time. These were words that An Qingyu, who had been rejected by the Night Watchmen and was studying the strange creatures on her own, should have said. He was about to ask something when An Qingyu had already stood up and disappeared in front of him at a speed that Ling Yunxiao could not stop in time.
Ling Yunxiao fell silent and opened another can of beer. If it weren't for the cold beer going down his throat, he would have even wondered if he had drunk too much beer and was hallucinating.
Suddenly, he remembered the ending of "The Godslayer," and it seemed An Qingyu had said something about it. Unfortunately, after writing his thesis for so long, his mind was filled with various symptom diagnoses, and he had completely forgotten the plot of the finale.
"Brother Ling, why are you sitting here drinking by yourself? What's wrong? Are you heartbroken because you can't bear to part with Xia Simeng?"
A vortex suddenly appeared, and Ling Yunxiao immediately looked up and gave him a big eye roll.
If he does nothing, and just watches the Masked Squad be destroyed again, with the King Mask dying time and time again, and everyone either dying or getting injured, is he going to do that?
No, the Goddess Houtu sent him to appear in order to change everything. Although he doesn't have the ability to change the ending yet, he believes that he will definitely be able to change everyone's fate in the future and will never let those people die so tragically again.
Having figured all this out, Ling Yunxiao picked up the remaining beer and handed it to Xuanwo.
"Sit down and have a drink with me."
Whirlpool immediately sat down, opened the beer can in his hand, took a big gulp, then took out his phone with the screen still lit up and spoke with a smile.
"Tsk tsk... Captain, we guessed right. Brother Ling really is heartbroken. He doesn't want to go on missions anymore and just wants to drink."
"No, Brother Ling, isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to stay up all night drinking alone here because of that tigress Xia Simeng?"
The entire Masked Squad rushed over. Moon Demon approached Ling Yunxiao with a regretful expression, trying to persuade him. Libra sat down directly in front of Ling Yunxiao, held his wrist, and softly advised him not to trust that tigress.
Wang Mian looked at Ling Yunxiao with a determined expression, just as he had when he joined the Night's Watch and swore an oath.
“There’s no way I’ll agree to you joining the Phoenix Squad, not even if you two get married. That tigress might be abusive, and if she accidentally kills you, you’ll definitely spend the rest of your life in a fasting place.”
Ling Yunxiao covered his face in despair, realizing for the first time that even the King was so unreliable.
In a corner unnoticed by anyone, Rose's phone was secretly playing a video. On the other side of the video, the entire Phoenix Squad was grinning from ear to ear, along with a blushing Xia Simeng.
"team leader……"
Just as Ling Yunxiao was about to explain, Qiangwei quickly turned off the video.
"I just suddenly felt that my abilities were insignificant, and I didn't even have any combat power. I was just a burden to the Masked Squad. Of course, if you could include me in the combat squad, I definitely wouldn't feel so depressed."
"Don't even think about it. As long as I have a breath left, I will never let you set foot on the battlefield."
Wang Mian dropped his joking expression and ruthlessly rejected Ling Yunxiao's unreasonable suggestion.
"Captain, I'm really strong now, you have to believe me. I have the ability to fight."
"Fine, don't say I didn't give you a chance, and don't say I'm unreasonable. As long as you can defeat the weakest person in our team head-on without using that ability point, I'll let you participate in the battle, and you won't have to be the last one to finish off the enemy."
"Okay, it's a deal!"
Perhaps due to the effects of alcohol, Ling Yunxiao agreed without hesitation.
The next second, he saw Zhao Kongcheng, wearing a general's mask, grinning maliciously as he walked towards him. He almost shook the mask off because he was laughing so loudly. Led by Wang Mian, the masked squad, arms crossed, made way for the two, all wearing the same wicked smile.
Ling Yunxiao blinked, but before he could say anything, Zhao Kongcheng had already flashed past and disappeared before his eyes. Then, a sharp pain shot through his abdomen, and he was kicked two meters away by Zhao Kongcheng.
Ling Yunxiao staggered to his feet, knowing this was his only chance to prove himself. He unleashed his bloodline power without holding back, drew his Star Blade, and charged directly at Zhao Kongcheng, his aura indeed quite fierce.
ten minutes later.
Ling Yunxiao lay in the snowdrift, bruised and battered, begging for mercy. The snowdrift had been piled up instantly by Tianping; otherwise, his injuries would have been far worse. When he stood up, he realized he was lame in one leg. Ling Yunxiao sighed and slapped a healing incantation on his forehead.
Then, everyone's gaze towards him changed, and Tianping, who often got beaten up because of bad luck, rushed in front of Ling Yunxiao and grabbed his wrist.
"Brother Ling, from now on you're my big brother, no! Your grandpa! You're my grandpa, and if anyone dares to bare their teeth at you, just let me bite them!"
"Hahaha... With Brother Ling around, our team shouldn't be called Masked anymore, it should be called the Undying Team!"
"My brother Ling can actually heal his injuries now! Captain, let's apply to change our name to the Undying, Unbreakable, Unharmed Squad!"
