Chapter 321 Crossing the River and Destroying the Bridge

Jiang Xingni: ?

Jiang Xing glanced at the comment from head to toe, and for a moment she had to admit that it made a lot of sense.

—Although Jiang Xingni has never had much of an impression of the pressure of entering higher education, whether in junior high or high school, the pressure she felt most often came from the struggle for survival itself.

However, this does not mean that Jiang Xingni is completely unaware of such matters.

Putting everything else aside, it hasn't been that long since the last middle school instance.

2L: I'm really convinced. The first floor really convinced me.

3L: I've always wondered how people can react so quickly.

4L: Are all the people in front of me middle or high school students? Can't people be a little more mature and not so childish? I'm speechless.

5L: ? What does the preceding "?" mean?

6L: Wait, wait, stop arguing, but I feel it really can't be summed up with such a simple term as academic pressure. The post-credits scene shows that Lu Ming really did witness her parents die before her eyes, but she had no ability to stop or protect herself. Then she was also being chased. To be honest, I feel that Lu Ming was probably terrified when she didn't run away at the beginning.

7L: Yes, yes, I was terrified, but now I can grab Xiao Jiming's ear and yell at him.

8L: Why are so many people defending Lu Ming and making excuses for her behavior? Is it possible that she is just a delinquent?

9L: You saw this post outside and it mainly talked about Lu Ming, so why did you click in to curse him? Isn't that despicable? But when you clicked into his profile, it turned out he was a Xiao supporter. Well, then everything makes sense!

10L: It must feel really frustrating to see your own idol get scolded by that girl, right? What a coincidence, your frustration makes me feel so good!

11L: ?

Jiang Xingni fell into deep thought.

Could it be that Lu Ming's acquisition of superpowers is also related to VOID? Just like Xiao Jiming, who went from an ordinary person to a superpowered individual.

Although Jiang Xingni herself is an ordinary person who became a superhuman, she has nothing to do with VOID. Her superhuman ability was given to her by the system. Perhaps she is also on VOID's tracking list, and they want to find out what's wrong with Jiang Xingni.

The footsteps were getting closer.

The scenery before Jiang Xingni's eyes shifted slightly, transforming into a misty landscape that ordinary people could see.

You can't see anything beyond five meters.

It's still a water rocket.

One water arrow hurtled towards the direction of the mountain, while the other was aimed at Jiang Xingni.

The water arrow aimed at the mountain was evaporated in mid-air before it could hit its target.

The consciousness that Jiang Xingni had awakened belonging to Shan Qing vanished once again, and because of the arrival of the stranger, it turned into a strange creature, its face roaring at Lu Ming.

The other water arrow, too, hadn't yet touched Jiang Xingni—although Jiang Xingni himself was prepared and could dodge in time, so he wouldn't be hurt no matter what—on one side was the high-temperature flame, and on the other side was the black, monstrous tentacles controlled by Xiao Jiming that intercepted the water arrow halfway.

Two similar devices were used to stop the water arrows that were halfway through the journey. It's unclear which one actually worked in the end, but Jiang Xingni was prepared, yet the water arrows that were supposed to follow never arrived.

The girl who had shot two arrows with her bow slowly walked over. She looked away from Jiang Xingni and frowned: "You're also a superhuman? You superhumans are really just causing trouble."

Jiang Xingni finally experienced firsthand just how sharp and irritating Lu Ming's words were.

She opened her mouth, but then felt she had nothing to say, so she shut up and only gave Lu Ming a look, not giving her any more attention.

"Mountain Scenery?" Jiang Xing stared intently at the mountain scenery.

The strange creature, which had briefly regained consciousness, was now ignoring Jiang Xingni's calls, though the reason was unknown.

Jiang Xingni silently crossed out one of his ideas in his mind—it couldn't be some familiar person calling his name that made the monster regain its senses, so could it be a matter of the number of people?

"I've finally caught you." Lu Ming stared at the monster before him. "I will definitely kill you and avenge my parents."

...?

and many more.

Jiang Xingni recalled his memories of the last time he came here as Longinus.

When did Lu Ming's parents become Shan Qing's killers?

She clearly remembered that when Lu Ming's parents died, Shan Qing herself was still alive.

"..." Jiang Xing turned her head and asked directly, "Did she kill your parents?"

Lu Ming: "You're meddling too much."

"I don't know if it's her." The little girl's innocent face was full of indifference. "But anyway, it's the same as the things that killed my mom and dad, so killing it wouldn't make any difference."

"..."

It turns out that hatred extends to everything connected to the house.

Jiang Xingni suddenly realized.

She almost thought she had missed some important plot developments.

The strange creature floated in mid-air, and Jiang Xingni could notice that its gaze was still fixed on her. Perhaps it originally intended to kill Lu Ming and Xiao Jiming, but it gave up because of Jiang Xingni's presence.

The eerie fireball vanished in an instant, along with the surrounding mist, which slowly dissipated, and the shouts of ordinary people reached the group's ears again.

"Why are you asking me that kind of question?" Lu Ming looked at her suspiciously. "Does it mean I can only kill it if it killed my parents?"

The little girl smiled brightly: "Don't pretend, big sister, I know everything."

The smile on her face always carried a blatant, almost undisguised malice.

"Although I don't know what these things are called, I remember that people like you always kill them, so what are you pretending for? Do you think killing these things will bring you any benefit, and I just happen to steal your monsters? Like in an online game?"

Jiang Xingni still couldn't understand what she had gone through. How could a perfectly normal little girl suddenly become so sharp?

"I can't let you kill her yet." Jiang Xingni knelt down, suddenly becoming much shorter than Lu Ming.

Jiang Xing then looked up at Lu Ming and said, "I still have questions I want to ask her."

Xiao Jiming gave Jiang Xingni a puzzled look, but out of consideration for his companion, he didn't ask directly.

Jiang Xingni ignored what Xiao Jiming was thinking.

"How exactly did you become a superhuman? And that monster you were chasing—she used to be human. I need to know what happened, how a human can become a superhuman or a monster..."

"Once I get the answer, I will kill her."

Lu Ming lowered his head, looked at Jiang Xing's pale golden eyes, and scoffed, "Crossing the river and then burning the bridge."
