Chapter 277: She Needed An Opportunity
‘She’s a guy,’ Xu Ning thought with a shudder. He had been toyed with by such a young chap and this made him angry.
Xu Ning flew into a rage out of humiliation and formed another firewall. It crackled as it melted Qin Yi’s ice needles. “Fire subdues ice,” he said with disdain, “What an idiot. You’re still a kid yet you’re trying to fight with me? Why don’t you just go back and drink milk for a few more years, huh?”
When Xu Ning found out that Qin Yi’s ability was ice, he became more and more unbridled. This chap was not his match at all. Xu Ning had been suppressing his anger and had finally found someone to vent it on.
Hence, a large group of fire ability users charged towards Qin Yi.
Qin Yi swiftly dodged, moving her hands so that another dagger appeared in her hand, reflecting a cold light. “Is that so? Don’t forget that I don’t rely on just my abilities.”
She formed another ice needle, and while Xu Ning was dodging, she moved nimbly and made to pierce it deeply into Xu Ning’s back.
Xu Ning was taken aback, quickly forming a fire wall behind him and dodging Qin Yi’s dagger.
Qin Yi’s gaze deepened. Xu Ning’s ability had reached the third grade, so her ice ability wouldn’t be able to defeat him.
However, this provided her a rare opportunity to practice. During the apocalypse, abilities were very important but physical qualities were crucial too. Death awaited them if ability users relied heavily on abilities alone, as abilities could be used up.
She didn’t want to become a lamb like that.
Chen Che lazily dealt with the fire ability user before him and yawned in boredom. Turning his head, he asked Yun Huan, who was surrounded by three to four people, “Ah, Ah, Ah-Huan, when is this going to end? Why don’t we go and sleep instead? This is so boring.”
Yun Huan’s aloof peach blossom eyes swept across Chen Che as he dodged a water arrow that flew towards him, firmly stating, “A bit more.”
His gaze landed on the youth nearby, his handsome face turned gentler. The little guy needed to grow and he wanted to create an opportunity for him to do so.
Yun Huan had always known that Qin Yi didn’t have great physical qualities. Malnutrition was one aspect, but a lack of experience was another.
Right now, Qin Yi was in much better health and had a lot of strength. She was only lacking in practice, and compared to fighting those clumsy zombies, it was better to fight against ability users when practicing.
When Chen Che saw that look on his good friend’s face, he subtly rolled his eyes. Yun Huan was really spoiling his little brother but seeing the beautiful smile on the confident young man’s face, gentleness filled Chen Che’s eyes.
Qin Yi dodged Xu Ning’s attacks while looking for the next best opportunity. While doing so, she recalled what Yun Huan had said before- If you choose to make a move, make sure it kills.
Xu Ning was exasperated. This chap was like a mud fish, he kept sliding here and there and Xu Ning’s ability couldn’t hit him at all. If this went on, his power was going to be all used up.
After some time, Xu Ning finally couldn’t take it anymore and had used up all his ability. Qin Yi’s eyes lit up, guarding her heart with a layer of ice as she charged towards Xu Ning to stab him.
Xu Ning was startled and shouted out, “You can’t kill me! Lin Ming, don’t you want Wei Liao’s life?”
At the last moment, a wall blocked Xu Ning’s front, a dent right in the middle of the golden wall- it was clear how strong Qin Yi was.
Qin Yi’s gaze was somewhat cold as she retracted her dagger. She still remembered that shy young man.
“Speak, where is he?” Qin Hanyu had quickly killed the few people before him and walked over. There was iciness in place of his usual gentle countenance, which made Xu Ning shudder in fear.
