Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 863 Loss of combat effectiveness

In the dark forest at night, the figures of Zhang Xue and Lin Lan are particularly conspicuous. They had just experienced a fierce battle and were now standing next to a man who fell to the ground - Shadow. Ying's face was pale and he had obviously lost his fighting ability, but his eyes still showed an unyielding light.

"This... eldest sister, isn't there something wrong with this?" Zhang Xue looked at Ying and said hesitantly, "After all, we have no grudge against him." Her voice was not loud, but it stood out in the silent night sky. clear.

Hearing this, Lin Lan frowned slightly. She has always been a mover and shaker, and is used to the obedience and fear of those around her. At this moment, Zhang Xue's hesitation and resistance made her feel a little annoyed. She turned to look at Zhang Xue, with a hint of unquestionable majesty in her tone: "I want that pendant. If you don't kill him, how will I get it!"

Zhang Xue felt a little guilty because of Lin Lan's gaze. She knew that her hesitation might offend the eldest sister. However, she still felt that something was wrong with this. Although Ying is a stranger, they have no enmity, so why do they want to commit such a murderous attack? However, she also knew Lin Lan's character and it was difficult to change something once decided.

 Sighing softly in his heart, Zhang Xue slowly approached Ying. Her steps were a little heavy, as if every step was carrying a thousand pounds of weight. She knew that what she was about to do might change the fate of many people, but she could not disobey Lin Lan's order.

"Ice appears!" Zhang Xue chanted a spell in a low voice, and then, a sharp sword made of ice appeared in her hand. The ice sword shone coldly under the moonlight, as if even the air was frozen by it. Zhang Xue held the ice sword tightly, and murderous intent gradually emerged in his eyes.

 She raised her head to look at Ying, and saw that his eyes were still full of determination and unyielding. This made Zhang Xue feel even more conflicted. She didn't want to hurt this innocent person, but she had to carry out Lin Lan's order. She knew that once she took action, there would be no turning back.

 However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred. Lin Lan suddenly let out an exclamation and lunged forward. It turned out that she had been secretly watching the movements of Zhang Xue and Ying. Now seeing Zhang Xue's hesitation, she wanted to take action to deal with Guo Ying herself. However, she did not expect that Ying would regain some strength at the critical moment and launch a counterattack against her.

Although Lin Lan reacted quickly, his arm was still scratched by Ying's attack. She looked at Ying angrily, with violent killing intent flashing in her eyes. Ying took the opportunity to struggle to his feet and fled deep into the forest.

"Want to run away? It's not that easy!" Lin Lan snorted and was about to catch up. However, she found that her body could not move. It turned out that she had consumed a lot of spiritual power in the previous battle, and she was no longer able to pursue him at this moment.

Lin Lan was so angry that she gritted her teeth as she watched Ying gradually disappear into the depths of the forest. She turned to look at Zhang Xue and roared: "Hurry up and chase him! If you let him run away, you are the only one I will ask!"

Zhang Xue was startled by Lin Lan's roar. She hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to obey the order. She took a deep breath, clenched the ice sword in her hand, and chased in the direction where the shadow disappeared. The light in the dense forest was dim, and Zhang Xue could only rely on the weak moonlight and intuition to move forward. She kept walking through the woods, trying to find traces of Shadow. However, Ying seemed to be very familiar with this dense forest. His figure was looming in the woods, making it impossible for Zhang Xue to catch up.

In this way, the two chased and escaped, starting a thrilling chase in the dense forest. Although Zhang Xue is very powerful, he is unable to exert his full strength in this environment. Ying relied on his familiarity with the dense forest and tenacious willpower to escape Zhang Xue's pursuit time and time again.

 However, as time went by, Zhang Xue gradually adapted to the dense forest environment, and her speed became faster and faster. Shadow, on the other hand, began to slow down due to severe physical exhaustion from running and fighting for a long time. Finally, around a corner, Zhang Xue successfully caught up with Ying.

She raised the ice sword in her hand and aimed it at Ying's back to stab him. However, at the last moment, she hesitated. She looked at Ying's thin back and pale face, and an inexplicable emotion surged in her heart. She knew that once she struck the sword, there would be no turning back.

However, at this moment, Ying suddenly turned around, his eyes shining with determination and unyielding light. He looked at Zhang Xue and said slowly: "Just do it, I won't blame you."

Zhang Xue felt a little guilty because of Ying's eyes. She lowered her head, not daring to look at him. She knew she couldn't do this, and she didn't want to hurt this innocent person. Finally, she took a deep breath and put down the ice sword in her hand.

"I'm sorry, I can't do it." Zhang Xue whispered, "I can't hurt you."

Upon hearing this, Ying's eyes flashed with surprise and gratitude. He didn't expect that Zhang Xue would choose to give up at this time. He smiled softly and said, "Thank you."

 Zhang Xue also smiled, knowing that she had made the right choice. She turned and looked in Lin Lan's direction, ready to go back and explain everything to her. However, she discovered that Lin Lan was no longer where she was.
