Commander Level's Tough Vitality

At that moment, a handsome man appeared at the doorway.

Watching the man walk in, Xin Xia was momentarily stunned.

It wasn't because of Chen Lang's good looks, but rather... she hadn't expected anyone to show up here at a time like this.

"Uh, miss, I'm here for search and rescue, not some bad guy. Why are you holding a knife?"

Chen Lang looked at Xin Xia, who was gripping a fruit knife, and understood perfectly well. He said this just to help her relax.

Hearing Chen Lang's words, Xin Xia snapped back to reality.

"I..."

She wanted to say that she had planned to slit her own throat the moment the demonic creatures burst in here.

But who wouldn't want to live?

Chen Lang continued, "Don't be afraid. It's temporarily safe here for now."

Hearing this, Xin Xia breathed a sigh of relief. But thinking about her leg problem, she lowered her head and said, "I... I can't move well..."

She wanted to survive, but she didn't want to become a burden to others.

"With a wheelchair, it really is a bit inconvenient..."

Xin Xia wasn't surprised by Chen Lang's words. But when she heard what he said next, she felt a little surprised and shy...

"If you don't mind, I can carry you out on my back."

Xin Xia never expected that this complete stranger would be willing to carry her out of here.

In that instant, she saw a glimmer of hope for survival. At a time like this, how could she afford to be coy?

"Sorry for the trouble..."

Seeing her agree, Chen Lang walked over and crouched down in front of her.

The moment Xin Xia pressed against him, Chen Lang thought to himself: No wonder she's the one recognized by the Parthenon Soul—her size definitely surpasses Mu Ningxue's!

The only pity was the layer of fabric between them, preventing a clearer sensation...

Chen Lang carried Ye Xin Xia out of the supermarket and saw Mu Ningxue searching her way over as well.

Almost everyone from the underground supermarket had followed that plumber away, so aside from Xin Xia, there were hardly any survivors left here.

"I just looked around and didn't find anything... Xin Xia!?"

Mu Ningxue was mid-sentence when she suddenly saw Chen Lang walking out with Ye Xin Xia on his back. Seeing Xin Xia, she was a bit surprised.

"I found her in a storage room of that supermarket. Do you two know each other?" Chen Lang asked.

"We do..." Mu Ningxue briefly explained their relationship.

Learning that Xin Xia had been abandoned here, she felt a pang of sympathy.

"Ningxue, I'm fine." Xin Xia had known Mu Ningxue long enough to understand what she was thinking, so she said with a smile.

Being left alone there had indeed stung a little.

But Chen Lang's arrival and rescue had unknowingly dispelled that sense of loss.

"Alright, this isn't the place to talk. Let's leave first," Chen Lang said.

Although Mu Ningxue wanted to help carry Xin Xia, Chen Lang refused her offer.

In Mu Ningxue's eyes, Chen Lang was probably worried about tiring her out. But in truth, he just didn't want to give up that softness~

After leaving the underground, the two Chen family guards had also finished their search above.

Chen Lang had originally planned to continue looking for the demonic creature entrance to destroy it, but just then, not far away—in the direction of the school—a series of rumbling sounds rang out.

Clearly, Mu Zhuoyun had already sent word, and the standby personnel within the safety barrier had begun to deploy.

The demonic creature entrance had originally been a place of certain death, but the earlier appearance of a mid-level war beast that was executed by Chen Lang and the others had scared off many of the demonic hordes here.

With the death of that "great beast," many demonic wolves and Demonic Rats had fled, making the "suicide squad" sent to clear the demonic creature entrance the easiest to deal with.

Learning that the demonic creature entrance here had been cleared and that Xin Xia had been rescued, he naturally had no need to continue cleaning up.

Since one demonic creature entrance had been destroyed, it meant the others were likely being handled as well...

Meanwhile.

At the Yinmao Building in Bocheng, it was now completely reduced to ruins.

All around lay a large number of demonic wolf carcasses, as well as quite a few Military Mages.

Ink Shadow, Chen Ming, and Zhan Kong, who had just arrived, were locked in a struggle with the Winged Azure Wolf.

All three were wounded, but the Winged Azure Wolf was also covered in injuries, and the roars of demonic creatures within the city were growing sparser.

"Awooo~~~!!!"

Even though the raging rain showed no sign of stopping, the Winged Azure Wolf had regained some rationality.

With its life under threat, its fury had also subsided considerably.

"This beast wants to fight to the death?" Ink Shadow said.

"I think it's trying to escape!" Chen Ming retorted coldly.

In truth, Zhan Kong felt the same way—it wasn't looking for a desperate fight, it was trying to flee.

"Zu family boy."

"Got it!"

Hearing Chen Ming's call, Zhan Kong instantly understood what he meant.

He shot upward into the sky almost immediately.

At the same moment, the Winged Azure Wolf spread its fleshy wings, intending to fly straight out of there.

"Heavenly Flame Funeral—Hellfire!"

Before the Winged Azure Wolf could even take off, a massive flaming boulder crashed down from above.

The rock, burning with green flames, slammed directly into the Winged Azure Wolf's colossal body.

"Boom!!!"

"Rumble rumble rumble!!!"

The molten rock exploded, and the Winged Azure Wolf plummeted almost straight down toward the ground.

"Crash!!!"

That strike dealt heavy damage to the Winged Azure Wolf.

"Night Binding!"

Seeing the Winged Azure Wolf smashed to the ground, Ink Shadow acted almost instantly.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"

Tendrils formed from Dark Power coiled up from beneath the Winged Azure Wolf's massive frame. Already grievously wounded, it couldn't resist the binding.

"Silent Thunder Death Ray!"

Seizing the opportunity, Chen Ming directly completed a High-level lightning magic release.

"Boom!!!"

Lightning Light flashed, and Electric Current densely covered the entire street. The Winged Azure Wolf's enormous body, after enduring such consecutive devastation, began to emit wisps of black smoke!

Yet, to the three of them's surprise, the beast still wasn't dead. It stood up again.

Even with its mangled body, blood pooling into rivers under the rain, the beast truly hadn't perished.

It rose once more.

The Commander level creature's formidable vitality was vividly on display in that moment.

"This beast is about to gamble with its life. Be careful." Chen Ming, who often dealt with Commander level creatures, warned immediately upon seeing the Winged Azure Wolf's state.

"We absolutely can't let this beast escape!" Zhan Kong, with Wind Wings constantly absorbing wind elements behind him, dove straight down, seemingly unafraid of the Winged Azure Wolf's last stand.

"Zu family boy, come back!!" Seeing this, Chen Ming shouted at once.
