Following Zhou Mo’s command, Qi Xia and Qian Wu’s team advanced in both directions with Chen Junnan’s team. After saving approximately half the time, they finally saw that team by the roadside.

This team was different from both Qi Xia’s and Qiao Jiajin’s teams—neither were all members uninjured, nor were all members injured.

Two people among them looked no different from being dead, while the remaining people, including the leader, were all lively and energetic.

What kind of bizarre situation was this?

“Hey there!!” Chen Junnan waved happily when he saw Qi Xia and the others. “If it isn’t Old Qi, Old Qiao, Little Money Bean, Big Old Li, and Zhou Mo? What a coincidence! Are you also here waiting for rescue with your teammates? Oh my, Old Qiao, why have you gotten thinner? Little Money Bean, how come you…”

This sentence was clearly a bit long. Chen Junnan was somewhat out of breath after saying it all in one go.

“Stop jabbering.” Qi Xia said. “Save people first.”

As soon as Qi Xia’s words fell, his gaze stopped on Little Jiang Shi.

This child was now quietly standing to the side, holding his own completely mutilated head. The only remaining lazy eye on the skull was looking around—it looked quite terrifying.

“This child is…”

“‘Inauspicious’ Jiang Shi.” Chen Junnan said.

“You’re the inauspicious one!” The head in Jiang Shi’s arms shouted. “Your whole family is inauspicious! I’m ‘Inextinguishable’! I… though, though I’m about to be extinguished now…”

“Alright, alright, you’re ‘Inextinguishable.’ Looking like this, if you’re not saved soon, you’ll really be inauspicious…” Chen Junnan sighed and looked up at Qi Xia and Qiao Jiajin. “Old Qi, Old Qiao, what kind of team do you think I’m leading? One ‘Inauspicious’ Jiang Shi, and over there’s a ‘Self-Detonating’ Song Qi. Even a leader as smart as me can’t have peace of mind. These two can be called the strongest shield and strongest spear of the ‘Land of the End.’ One had his head blown off when getting beaten and runs around holding his own head, the other nearly blew himself up when beating others and screamed after the explosion.”

“Interrupting…” Song Qi said through gritted teeth. “Leader, I didn’t make a single sound.”

“Leader, hold on.” Jiang Shi said. “Although my ‘Echo’ is called ‘Inextinguishable,’ I’m not from Beijing…”

“Leader… I’m not from Beijing either…”

Chen Junnan’s words made Qiao Jiajin and Officer Li smile bitterly repeatedly. For Chen Junnan to be their leader was probably a blessing this team had cultivated over three lifetimes.

Qi Xia didn’t pay attention to Chen Junnan. He was just somewhat amazed that a person whose head was severed could still speak. Looking more carefully, this child had quite a few scars on his body—even his leg was broken. Half his face seemed to have been torn off by someone, but the torn skin wasn’t bleeding.

His severed neck and the area below the head revealed a pitch-black color. Inside his body, like a vast universe, exposed a void of nothingness that, upon close inspection, was even slightly wriggling. In this state, was this really still a human?

Qi Xia frowned, feeling that he had definitely seen this state before. If it was really as he thought… that would simply be the most terrifying situation.

“Xuanwu” wouldn’t die even if his head was cut off.

Qian Wu gave Zhou Mo a look. Zhou Mo immediately walked forward to take Little Jiang Shi’s head and placed it on top of his neck.

“Jiang Shi, endure it.” Zhou Mo said. “I’ll have Fifth Brother reforge you.”

Qian Wu first looked at the several people nearby and found that the people here all had very tall builds, which weren’t suitable for reforging Jiang Shi. He could only sigh, walk forward, and directly touch Jiang Shi’s body with his left hand.

The current body came from Luo Shiyi and was considerably taller than Little Jiang Shi’s original body. Although it wasn’t suitable for the clothes he was wearing, right now they could only save people first.

The instant he was touched by Qian Wu, Jiang Shi’s form suddenly changed. However, this transformation process was longer than before. He was like a balloon being inflated, slowly expanding. The bones in his body crackled, and quite a bit of sweat flowed down Qian Wu’s forehead.

Qi Xia also roughly understood the drawback of Qian Wu’s ability. The so-called “Twin Flowers”—from the very beginning, it wasn’t a specialized healing ability. Continuously swapping other people’s bodies in a short time would definitely cause no small burden on Qian Wu himself. He had overused his swapping ability these past two days. Even as “Twin Flowers,” his mind should be somewhat dazed now.

Qiao Jiajin hadn’t known Qian Wu’s methods before. This was the first time seeing him revive a small boy whose head was severed, and he couldn’t help but cry out in surprise. “Wow! Transformation guy, you’re this slick…”

Before his words fell, Qi Xia and Chen Junnan simultaneously rushed over to cover his mouth.

“Mmm…” Qiao Jiajin was startled and stared wide-eyed at the two people before him, not knowing what they meant.

“Fist, say a few less words…” Qi Xia said with furrowed brows. “Right now Qian Wu is using his ‘Echo’ to save people. If you say it out loud, it’ll be troublesome.”

“That’s right, Old Qiao.” Chen Junnan also said somewhat anxiously. “That bell sound just now was so loud—it was obviously yours! If you talk nonsense now… at best Qian Wu will go into Qi deviation, at worst his meridians will be destroyed!”

“You say a few less words too!” Qi Xia scolded in a low voice. “In any case, first wait for Qian Wu to finish saving people… Fist is currently in an ‘Echo’ state. No matter how you think about it, it’s a bit unsafe.”

The two only let go of the hands covering his mouth when they saw that Qiao Jiajin seemed to understand.

“I’ll be damned… is my ‘Echo’ this scary? Can’t even speak carelessly?” Qiao Jiajin looked at the two people before him, still shaken.

The two only frowned and told him to be quiet without answering.

Zhou Mo saw that Jiang Shi’s neck and head had completely fused together, and only then did she slowly let go.

Jiang Shi also slowly opened his eyes. This body truly didn’t match his tender face. His facial features had also proportionally enlarged on his face, giving people an extraordinarily discordant feeling—exactly like an enlarged version of a child. But fortunately, he had now saved his life.

“There should still be a child in the prison.” Qian Wu said. “Called Zheng Yingxiong…? When the time comes, I’ll swap your body again. For now, just make do with this.”

Jiang Shi moved his neck. After feeling there were no major problems, he nodded. “Actually, there’s no need to swap. Fifth Brother, this body is far more convenient than Ninth Sister’s body from last time. I feel tall and strong now. Don’t mention how happy I am…”

“That’s best.”

Qian Wu patted Jiang Shi’s shoulder, then walked to the side to heal Song Qi’s injuries. Song Qi’s injuries looked lighter than Jiang Shi’s. This time, recovery was almost instantaneous, but Qian Wu’s complexion had become increasingly worse. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked to the side, sat down, and continuously adjusted his breathing.

Qi Xia turned to look at Qian Wu, then looked at the lively and energetic Jiang Shi on the side, and slowly furrowed his brows.
