"Now I understand why you and Siyu told us to leave quickly!"
Jiao Xiaoyan's tone was lingering with fear, her face filled with terror.
"This... this... is she even human?"
Li Zhengxin felt his understanding of reality had been completely overturned.
He had been suddenly called to a collective meeting last night, and during the meeting, faced with a series of evidence-based speculations regarding the Fei Xiao incident, he hadn't believed a single word.
Even including today's arrival, he had actually come with a skeptical attitude in his heart.
But now...
Everyone:...
This question was destined to go unanswered.
The soldiers, who were somewhat unruly at first, were now trembling all over without stopping.
If this woman had really made a move earlier, they estimated that not even their ashes would remain.
And Elder Ye and Elder Jiao, who witnessed this scene with their own eyes, clearly showed signs of panic.
From this moment on, even the last trace of hesitation in the hearts of Ye Jinnian and Jiao Wuyan vanished.
Instead, they felt a bit fearful of the upcoming conversation with Fei Xiao.
"Let's go over and take a look; the battle seems to have ended!"
Meng Xi tried her best to maintain her usual cold and aloof tone.
Meng Xi and Lin Siyu were already mentally prepared for the outcome of this scene, though they hadn't expected Fei Xiao to pull off something so big again.
But they felt that at the very end, Fei Xiao's appearance seemed a bit different from usual.
Seeing no reaction to her words, Lin Siyu said crossly.
"Hey, go down quickly! What are you doing?"
But the pilot, even after hearing it a second time, still took no action.
First, he didn't need to take orders from them; second, in this situation, who would dare go down!
"Let's land!"
"But Elder Ye..."
"No buts, carry out the orders!"
In the end, everyone arrived on the ground.
Walking on this "level" ground, everyone felt a sense of unreality.
The lawn where they had initially rested and relaxed together was now blasted with countless large craters.
The originally beautiful scenery of green mountains and clear waters was now unrecognizable.
The solid ground was shattered, the surrounding trees had all fallen over together, and the massive lake was nearly split in two.
Everyone slowly advanced toward the large crater Fei Xiao had carved with her final strike; at the same time, they were all on high alert, staying extremely focused.
Even though they now knew the important figures were here to see that woman today, they still couldn't stop a bit of fear.
Lin Siyu and Meng Xi didn't care about any of that, quickly bypassing the craters and rubble on the ground.
Seeing this, Jiao Xiaoyan grit her teeth, suppressed the fear in her heart, and hurriedly followed.
...
"Sister Fei Xiao!"
The original smile on Fei Xiao's face had now vanished, replaced by a flatness that was somewhat terrifying.
Her weapon was thrust into the ground, and at the end of the blade was a startling, impassable 'canyon' that stretched all the way to the opposite shore of the lake, its depth unseeable.
It was now slowly being filled with water, yet the water level was nowhere to be seen.
As for Ceruledge, it lay quietly on the ground, that gunblade only inches away from its head.
Fei Xiao stood to the side, quietly staring at everything she had caused.
"Sister Fei Xiao? Sister Fei Xiao? What are you thinking about? You're not going to faint again, are you!"
Lin Siyu noticed the other party seemed to be spacing out, so she stood on tiptoe and tried waving her hand in front of Fei Xiao's eyes twice.
Fei Xiao also came back to her senses and noticed the several people approaching.
"Hmm? What's wrong? Are you injured?"
"It should be whether you are injured! I just saw you spacing out."
Meng Xi asked with concern; after all, she didn't know if Fei Xiao would faint like last time.
"Oh! I was just...
Uh..."
The familiar tearing sensation hit again, her heart feeling as if it were struck by electricity.
"Cough, cough."
Fei Xiao clutched her chest, her brows furrowed tightly, her exquisite face showing an expression of pain.
"Sister Fei Xiao!"
"Are you okay!"
"Are you all right, Miss Fei Xiao!"
...
This time, Fei Xiao clearly heard everyone's concern, but she didn't have time to reply.
Fei Xiao staggered a few steps but quickly regained her footing, gritting her teeth to endure.
Within moments, this intense, bone-carving and flesh-scraping pain slowly vanished.
When Lin Siyu and Meng Xi saw her adverse reaction, they stepped forward to support her shoulders and waist to prevent her from falling.
"Thanks, I'm fine. Phew..."
Fei Xiao forced a slight smile as she stepped away from their support, slowly adjusting her breathing and stabilizing her emotions.
"Fei Xiao!"
Meng Xi's small face showed some anger, and she even called Fei Xiao by her name directly.
This was already the second time; was she really okay!
"Fei Xiao, you don't have some kind of side effect after fighting, do you?"
"Don't worry, I'm really fine.
It's just that when I stopped Talonflame and clashed with it, I almost got serious.
Then this Ceruledge was actually quite strong, so I inadvertently got a bit serious. I'm just feeling a bit of the aftereffects now."
These words weren't a lie, though she omitted some details.
She had indeed used a bit of her true skill at the final moment.
She just hadn't expected that even at this level, she would faintly lose control.
Just now, for a moment, even Fei Xiao felt a bit afraid of herself.
It was as if she had completely seen red, her heart yearning for non-stop fighting and non-stop slaughter.
Although her strength had taken a qualitative leap, this time her consciousness clearly felt that difficult-to-suppress instinct—combat and slaughter.
Thinking of this, Fei Xiao looked back at Ceruledge on the ground.
If she hadn't barely regained a trace of clarity at the last moment, Ceruledge might have already...
"Alright, as long as you're okay. By the way, what about Ceruledge?"
Meng Xi didn't notice anything wrong in her words; instead, she noticed where Fei Xiao was looking.
"It's fine. I changed the position of my blade at the last second, but I was a bit heavy-handed, so it's unconscious."
Fei Xiao shook her head and explained.
At least there were some gains this time; her will seemed to have become more solid.
This time, "Moon Rage" had slightly relapsed, but she hadn't fallen because of that pain which was unbearable for ordinary people.
Instead, she was starting to get used to this pain, as if she had experienced it countless times and it had become routine.
But it was better not to tell them about this.
Meng Xi nodded slightly, her expression returning to flat once more, who knows what she was thinking.
"Sister Fei Xiao, you're amazing! By the way, next time can you come a bit faster or not leave us in the wild!
Do you know! If you were a few minutes later, you would've been attending our funeral feast!"
Lin Siyu directly and boldly took advantage, while constantly complaining.
Fei Xiao felt she was getting bolder and bolder. She really hadn't expected that after becoming a woman, she would ultimately be defiled.
But it felt... not bad, getting all close and cuddly with the Little Loli... Hehe.
Her face was cooperatively filled with helplessness as she went along with her willful Charm, which the two girls watching from the side saw... and felt a bit envious.
For some reason, Meng Xi felt she couldn't keep this best friend anymore.
Jiao Xiaoyan looked down; she had some size, but she could still see her toes.
