Would you like to absorb it together?

Although Jiang Xiao already knew what “Resentment” meant due to the information written in the books. However, when he saw the effects of Resentment from the internal Star Map, he was extremely astonished.

The Star Techniques of the male swordsman, the male savage with the spear, and the female Archer were all the same. Besides, they were not considered rare. Hence, that meant that Jiang Xiao could upgrade the quality of those Star Techniques.

Although the effects of the female Archer’s “Resentment” were not too obvious, they were rather superb when the female Archers shot the Ape Ghoul.

Although the Brass Quality Star Technique would allow the enemies to lose only a very small amount of vitality and Star Power and wasn’t a wonderful Star Technique for the other Awakened, it was an incredibly amazing skill for Jiang Xiao!

Because he could upgrade the quality of Resentment!

That was also the reason Jiang Xiao said that Resentment was not too bad of a Star Technique back then in the barbecue shop.

Of course, from Second Last’s perspective as well as the other Awakened, it was true that “Resentment” would be useless for them.

The female Archer was rather interesting too. Clearly, three of her Star Techniques were all of Brass Quality, but her Star Beads were described as Silver Quality.

Besides, her abilities were also known to be of Silver Quality. Jiang Xiao reckoned that it was probably due to her physique.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao began to feel a little hesitant about the Star Technique, not because he did not realize how powerful it was, but because... there was an even more interesting Star Technique.

Besides, the interesting Star Technique was from the Arsenal too.

“What are you waiting for? Have you taken an interest in her?” Xia Yan asked as she walked towards Jiang Xiao.

He saw Xia Yan holding onto her sword and stabbing the beast leather skirt of the female Archer.

She then tugged the skirt downwards to cover her thigh.

Jiang Xiao was speechless.

Although her tone and actions were derisive, she actually did it because she was concerned about him.

Jiang Xiao stood up and handed the Star Bead to Xia Yan.

“Seems like we really do need to try and cooperate with each other. Your battle style was great,” Xia Yan said smilingly as she grabbed the Star Bead and placed the sword behind her back before placing her hand on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder.

“What are you trying to do?” Jiang Xiao looked at the palm on his shoulder, seemingly having expected it.

“Your Blessing is simply witchcraft.” Xia Yan chuckled and gave him a compliment before continuing, “Besides, your casting is timely. Xiaopi, you’re all grown up now. I’m starting to like being with you.”

“You’re a brainless and reckless person. Do you like being with Daddy?” Jiang Xiao questioned with a humph.

“Tsk, tsk, you little imp. I’ve only given you a few compliments and you’re already so full of yourself,” said Xia Yan, giving Jiang Xiao’s head a hard rubbing and pushing him away. While holding the Star Beads she had just harvested, she scurried towards Han Jiangxue to show her good intentions and please her.

Jiang Xiao finally had the opportunity to take a good look at the female Archer.

The female Archer had light brown skin and the leather wrapped around her body seemed to be made of Ape Ghoul skin. It was skin-tight and seemed just like a bandeau.

Her skirt was also made of Ape Ghoul skin. After what Xia Yan did, the skirt was already pulled down to her knee.

According to generic beauty standards for female bodies, the female Archer definitely had a great figure.

She looked like a warrior, with slender limbs and streamlined muscles tucked beneath her tight skin, which was extremely beautiful. She somehow reminded Jiang Xiao of Second Last.

As a female Archer who had been hunting for survival in the Arsenal for a long time, she was definitely muscular and physically talented. But... she had an ugly face.

Jiang Xiao turned the Female Archer’s body over and looked at her face with a peculiar expression.

Impressive.

How hideous.

Did your creator sculpt your face on his own?

Why didn’t you use a randomized machine setting?

Long face, thick lips, flat nose.

Her eyes were her only attractive feature, especially when they were emitting the purple glow which made others feel extremely daunted to the extent that they would forget about how ugly she was.

Jiang Xiao pulled an arrow out of the quiver and took a closer look at it.

It was made of wood and feathers, while the tip of the arrow was made of stone that had been sharpened into a triangle.

Jiang Xiao wanted to pry her hand open and take a look at the longbow, only to realize that she was gripping it very tightly and guarding her weapon well even though she had already died.

Her hand... was extremely coarse and there were numerous calluses on her palm, which was probably the result of her practicing archery for many years.

Although her hands were extremely ugly, she was still very talented, and her pink nails were extremely sharp.

This is probably meant for Sharp Claws, right?

What about Sharp Fangs?

Jiang Xiao grabbed the arrow and pried her thick lips open like he was checking a horse, only to reveal her hideously uneven teeth.

Her fangs were particularly eye-catching, and the rest of her teeth were also messy and disorderly. Jiang Xiao reckoned that it should be for the sake of increasing the damage and effects of tearing.

“Oh, my Xiaopi is indeed at the age where one is particularly curious,” Xia Yan remarked as her face grew peculiar when she caught a glimpse of Jiang Xiao fiddling with the corpse.

Xia Yan said in agony, “We’d better intervene. This kid seems obsessed. I’m afraid he might develop a phobia of women.”

“Mm... I’d better go take a look,” Han Jiangxue said as she took a deep breath. She could still see Jiang Xiao tirelessly scrutinizing the corpse of the female Archer.

At this moment, he was examining her toes. Of course, the female Archers were not wearing socks and there were very few wearing shoes.

They seemed to live barefoot, and their toenails were all sharp too.

That made Jiang Xiao secretly alert. He thought to himself that when he was facing the savages and fighting them in the future, he couldn’t let them kick him.

It was likely that the savages would use their sharp toenails as weapons to achieve the effects of “Sharp Claws”.

“After all, she’s a creature of another dimension and not a human being,” Han Jiangxue said coldly as she stood behind Jiang Xiao.

“Ah, I know.” Jiang Xiao squatted down and turned around to look at Han Jiangxue. “I won’t treat them as fellow human beings. Don’t worry.”

After thinking for a while, Han Jiangxue said, “Their bodies are structured very differently from female humans.”

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

Han Jiangxue was just like a teacher who was having a hard time trying to explain something to a child. After some thought, she said, “When you grow up and get a girlfriend, you’ll understand.”

Jiang Xiao scratched his head...

Impressive.

Has she gotten the wrong idea about my behavior?

“Stop scrutinizing. Female humans do not have such bodies.” Han Jiangxue leaned forward and held Jiang Xiao’s arm, trying to help him up.

She then took a quick glance at the corpse of the female Archer. Although her clothes were tattered, they covered the vital parts. Hence, Han Jiangxue could rest her mind.

Jiang Xiao immediately felt awkward and pried open the female Archer’s hand to grab her longbow while ignoring Han Jiangxue.

He knew that he would never be able to clear his name after today.

However, the longbow was rather exquisite.

It was about 1.5 meters in length and the wood was extremely sturdy. Jiang Xiao had no idea what kind of wood it was made of, but it was light-brown in color and slightly rounded, while the handle was wide and thick. In fact, there was even a shallow imprint of her finger, which made it easy for Jiang Xiao to find the point on the bow that he should grip.

What material is the bowstring made of?

Jiang Xiao could not figure it out at all because he was not experienced in archery.

He pretentiously placed the bow in front of him, aimed it at a big tree, and released his finger.

“Whoosh!”

The arrow landed midway after moving through a crooked trajectory, and no new Basic Technique appeared in the internal Star Map.

All of a sudden, she placed a hand on Jiang Xiao’s shoulder and held him.

Jiang Xiao turned his head and looked, only to see Li Weiyi’s side profile.

Li Weiyi also looked down at Jiang Xiao with a gentle smile.

Li Weiyi said, “Xiaopi, in this era where information is rampant, we have all grown up too quickly and there is data about everything on the Internet. But those are just some photos and videos, after all. I can understand your curiosity about touching the bodies of women. Most importantly, we have to learn to...”

Screw you!

Jiang Xiao pushed the “caring brother” Li Weiyi away and glared at him angrily before turning to look at Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan who were whispering and gossiping amongst themselves.

Did they send Li Weiyi?

At the next moment, Jiang Xiao’s pupils constricted and he exclaimed, “Behind you! Behind you!”

Jiang Xiao then raised his hand to give a Blessing...
