Chapter 143 - 143. The Killer's Arrow
Seeing the remaining man immediately running towards her, Xue Ning did not stay still. She takes the remaining arrows and releases them again.
With just one pull, the arrow shot so fast and hit the man\'s chest, right in the heart. Xue Ning released her arrow again, moved, and managed to split the previous arrow that had been stuck. It stabbed into the man\'s heart, deeper than before.
Even the wind that blew did not affect the speed of the arrow that the girl released.
The thin man fell down and at the same time, a sigh of relief escaped Xue Ning\'s lips.
Seeing the two men killed in his hands, made Xue Ning smile brightly. Even so, his hands still seemed to tremble slightly, this was the first time she had killed a human with her arrows.
"Huh. You greedy creature," she said then returned her bow to its original place. Perfectly attached to her back.
Xue Ning then normalized and regulated her breathing, slowly the girl\'s eyes scanned the surroundings, not finding a single shadow of a living being, she then used the mana in her body and immediately made a big hole in the trap that had a shape similar to iron bars, It\'s just that the trap is made of wood and bamboo. She did that many times until a hole was created the size of her body, then she came out of there.
She walked very quickly past the bodies of the two men she had killed, towards the location where she had hunted. Keep moving without looking back.
***
Right now, Fu Xie Lan was at the place where they would gather after getting the hunted.
According to her body\'s ability, the girl\'s prey was only two deer. She found there were many of them on the way, but because she could only carry two, she didn\'t care about the other animals anymore.
Waiting for a few minutes, the first person to appear was Xue Ning. In her hands there were five rabbits, each of them seemed to be alive, the arrow marks on her legs and body made it difficult for the small animals to move and could only surrender.
"Sorry Xie Lan, I only found this," she said after arriving under the same tree as Fu Xie Lan.
Hearing that, Fu Xie Lan nodded.
"Never mind, rather than nothing," she replied.
"What happened?" asked Fu Xie Lan when she saw that some parts of Xue Ning\'s dress were torn.
Finished saying that, Fu Xie Lan walked over to one of the tree trunks that seemed to have fallen a few days ago. found a comfortable position and then sat down to rest while waiting for Ju Xian and Wan Lie.
"I met a human," Xue Ning began.
"And almost become a victim of their lust gratification," she continued again with a rough sigh.
"At least you\'re okay now," Fu Xie Lan replied.
"I killed them," Xue Ning said as she leaned her body against the tree after placing her prey on the ground.
"Sometimes we are required to do bloodshed to protect ourselves, your action is correct, killing those who seek trouble with us is already the right decision. Finish it to the root, because we don\'t know what kind of trouble those people will cause again if we give their forgiveness," this was the longest sentence that came out of Fu Xie Lan\'s tiny lips.
"Whether the human race or any other race, selfishness, and greed have become one of their basic traits," she continued.
"If it\'s capable of killing it then kill it, if not, better retreat. Retreating doesn\'t mean losing, because only the final result will determine," said Fu Xie Lan as if saying that to herself. The girl also didn\'t know why those words could come out of her mouth.
Xue Ning frowned faintly at Fu Xie Lan\'s long words. Everything the girl said was true. And after hearing that, the desire to kill more humans grew even more intense within her.
"Even so, not everyone is the same, there are still some of them who have good hearts, but only a small number," said Fu Xie Lan as if she knew Xue Ning\'s thoughts. It was true, and one of what the girl said was Ju Xian, the man who was always with them.
Thinking about Ju Xian, a figure suddenly appeared from the grove of trees. On one shoulder there is very large a deer.
Walking towards Fu Xie Lan and Xue Ning. Ju Xian then placed his prey right next to a few rabbits.
"Wan Lie hasn\'t come back yet?" he asked then sat down after finding a comfortable place.
"As you can see," Xue Ning replied immediately.
\'Maybe only I have a small prey,\' thought Xue Ning.
"Have you met a human?" Xue Ning asked curiously, her head turned to where Ju Xian was.
"Erm," Ju Xian answered in the affirmative.
"Are they bothering you?"
"No," the man answered simply.
"Why? Do they bother you?" asked Ju Xian turning around.
"She was almost raped," said Fu Xie Lan in response to Ju Xian\'s question.
"Xie-Xie Lan...." Xue Ning stuttered feeling a little embarrassed.
As for Ju Xian, the man immediately took an upright position. "Then what happens?" he asked.
"I-I managed to escape them," Xue Ning replied.
"Good," said Ju Xian.
"If it was me, maybe I would have killed them first," he added.
"You\'re Ju Xian, aren\'t you?" Xue Ning asked taking an upright position as well. The frown was visible on the girl\'s forehead.
Ju Xian who heard Xue Ning\'s strange question raised one of his eyebrows.
"I\'m Ju Xian."
"Really? Before, I thought it wasn\'t you," chuckled Xue Ning leaning back against the tree.
Ju Xian didn\'t respond, he was having a hard time digesting Xue Ning\'s words. Why Xue Ning asked him something like that?
"Are you aware? This is the first time I\'ve heard you talk so much," Xue Ning said then, one hand raised to play with the sunlight slipping from the leaves.
Hearing the girl\'s words, Ju Xian\'s frown disappeared. True, he didn\'t realize that either. Maybe because he felt a little closer and understood them?
While on the other hand, Fu Xie Lan smiled behind her mask hearing the two people\'s conversation. Hao who was in her lap seemed to be curled up comfortably as if Fu Xie Lan\'s hand that was constantly stroking his fur made him addicted.
