Genshin Impact: I am best at sacrifice, don't cry

Everything seemed to be just as Ningguang had expected. Along the way, the killer chasing them from behind launched harassing attacks from time to time, keeping the two heading towards Liyue Harbor.

Half an hour later...

Ningguang felt the elemental power refilling her body and replenishing her overdrawn strength.

Without saying a word, Ningguang turned around and raised her hand to throw out a few gems.

The killer behind him seemed to have expected this and turned around and ran away without hesitation, without any lingering feelings.

"It's troublesome..."

Ningguang just turned around and heard Ye Lan sighing that something was wrong.

"Lv~~"

Ye Lan pulled the reins urgently, and the galloping horse braked quickly.

But even so, it's still a little late!

The familiar feeling came again, and before Ningguang could figure out what was happening, Ye Lan once again carried her off the horse.

"Pfft!"

There was a sound of a sharp blade cutting through flesh, followed by a rain of blood.

As Ningguang was rolling, she caught a glimpse of the horse they had just ridden being chopped into a pile of minced meat by two intersecting sword energies in an instant.

After rolling on the ground for a few times, Ningguang pulled Ye Lan up, who had resisted most of the fall damage by hugging Ningguang tightly.

Looking up into the distance, I saw a strong man about two meters tall, wrapped in a black cloak, holding a big knife in each hand, standing fifty meters away.

However, Ningguang did not see any trace of the Eye of God on the burly man, and she didn't know if he had hidden it.

"It looks like this is the last stage."

Ningguang raised her hand, and the rock elements began to gather, ready for battle.

Ye Lan also gritted his teeth, took off the bow on his back, and took the initiative to step back a distance.

The archer is most threatening when the enemy is not focusing his attention on him.

"I don't care who sent you. As long as you can let me go, I am willing to pay five times the price your employer gave you!"

"And I can guarantee that I won't trace your identity afterwards. You can even work for me if you want."

Before taking action, Ningguang used her Kryptonian abilities as usual to try to recruit a killer.

But this time she met an unprecedented tough guy, a very professional killer who was not tempted by huge wealth.

The only response to Ningguang was two ruthless sword auras!

Ningguang dodged the knife energy by moving sideways and attacked the killer at the same time.

However, the gems that had been at a disadvantage in the past were defeated by this killer. With just a casual cut of the sword, the gems made of rock elements turned into fragments.

Then the killer quickly launched an attack. His tall body did not appear clumsy at all as he moved, and he quickly approached Ningguang.

The killer did not rush to launch an attack before because he wanted to make sure that there were no other helpers hidden behind Ningguang and Ye Lan.

"It's difficult..."

Ningguang did not continue to launch an attack rashly. Instead, she concentrated her mind on mobilizing the elemental power in her body. She put the four fingers of both hands together, opened her palms wide, and guided the elemental power with both hands in front of her body. A huge gem quickly condensed.

In addition, there are several small gems surrounding the big gem.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

At the same time, Ye Lan shot three sharp arrows from the darkness, each arrow flying towards the killer's vital points.

The three arrows were so fast and accurate that the killer had nowhere to hide. He could only stop and swing his sword to block.

It was this little bit of time that Ye Lan bought that allowed Ningguang to successfully condense her attack.

Without any hesitation, taking advantage of the perfect opportunity when the killer just moved again, Ningguang waved her hand heavily, and the huge gem flew out instantly.

Because the distance was very close, the killer had no chance to dodge.

He bravely swung his dual swords with all his strength and chose to withstand Ningguang's attack.

Ningguang also took the opportunity to distance herself from the killer, but she soon discovered with confusion that the killer had not revealed his Eye of God until now.

"Could it be that he doesn't have the Eye of God?"

Under Ningguang's puzzled gaze, the killer swung his arms wildly, leaving afterimages of the two swords.

He peeled the large piece of gem bit by bit like an onion, but Ningguang's long-accumulated attack was not so easy to deal with.

The small gems surrounding the large gem successfully broke through the killer's defense circle and smashed into him.

The huge shock force caused him to spit blood from his mouth. He barely grabbed the two swords in his hands and continued attacking.

“An ordinary person without the Eye of God actually has such powerful strength. It would be great if I could use it. What a pity…” Ningguang said with great regret.

"Let's not think about these things now. That man is as strong as a monster. If he gets close to me, I'm afraid I'll be chopped into meat in an instant." Ye Lan obviously did not agree with Ningguang's words.

The two were chatting but they didn't stop attacking at all. This was a perfect opportunity to give the enemy a beating when he was down.

The attacks of the two men added many more wounds to the killer's body.

"Why do I feel like he's even more dangerous after being injured?"

The killer finally blocked the attack released by Ningguang's concentrated power, and at the same time, many wounds appeared on his body, bleeding profusely.

But as he became injured, the killer's aura became more terrifying, and the blood on his body turned into a faint blood mist that slowly rose.

"Is he still human?" The strange phenomenon on the killer made the knowledgeable Ye Lan couldn't help but complain.

If Nan Dou were here, he could explain it.

Although ordinary humans cannot use elemental power, some individuals with outstanding talents can integrate the thin elemental power in their bodies into their own moves through day and night training in martial arts.

Then after launching the move, it reacts with the elemental force in the air, causing some unusual states, such as sword energy, knife energy and the like.

Such beings in Teyvat are all master-level beings and are extremely rare.

Compared to incidental powers like sword energy, the martial arts possessed by the person who can use these powers are what is important.

The killer was bathed in blood mist, and he rushed towards Ningguang and the other person with a knife, as ferociously as a demon crawling out of hell.

"kill!"

This was the first time Ningguang heard the other person speak, and it was almost the last time.

"Oh!"

Ningguang raised the folding fan in her hand, attached elemental power to it, and resisted the killer's attack.

The whole person was sent flying under the influence of the huge force. The folding fan in her hand was shattered into pieces, and one of her arms hung limply by the side, bleeding profusely.

"die!"

The killer didn't give Ningguang a chance to react and chased her.

The big knife surrounded by blood opened the door to death. Once it hit, Ningguang would be cut in half.

"Wow!"

At this moment, an anxious bird cry suddenly sounded, and at the same time a huge fireball descended.

Yu Yu arrived at the critical moment and spit a fireball at the killer.

The killer stopped attacking, turned around and threw the big knife in his hand.

Yu Yu, who was anxious to save Ningguang, had no time to react and one of his wings was scratched.

Even so, Yu Yu still stretched out his claws and grabbed the killer.

The killer swung his knife at Yu Yu, but because he was missing a knife, he was unable to defend against Yu Yu's attack, and both of them were injured.

Yu Yu felt pain, and after fighting for a few more moves, he screamed and distanced himself from the killer.

After this brief fight, the killer understood Yu Yu's strength and became less worried.

Then he started running wildly, rushing into the forest like a hunter tracking wounded prey, and began to look for Ningguang and Ye Lan.

While Yu Yu was fighting with the killer, he ran desperately into the forest not far away.

In a rotten tree, Ningguang and Ye Lan huddled together, looking into each other's eyes. As the noise outside faded and the footsteps approached, they began to become increasingly nervous.

Because time was tight, Ye Lan only had time to deal with the traces nearby, as the killer would soon search the area.

But there was no other way. The two didn't want to hide and wait for death, but under normal circumstances they would definitely not be able to outrun the killer.

An unknown amount of time had passed. Listening to the sound of footsteps constantly ringing around them, Ningguang and Ye Lan were so nervous that they almost forgot to breathe.

"Da da da……"

The footsteps gradually stopped near Ningguang and Ye Lan's hiding place.
