Seven Gods Guardian: Gun King Mission

"Few people choose you? Does this mean that someone did choose you?" Hearing this, he couldn't help but speak.

Although what happened to Xue Mei there had nothing to do with him, he still felt a little curious and worried. After all, this was her job, and he couldn't interfere too much, let alone change anything.

Xue Mei nodded gently and replied softly, "Yes, there were some people who called me. But I was lucky. Those people just listened to me playing the piano quietly. After all, when my piano sounds, no matter how many evil thoughts people have, their hearts will gradually calm down. So, I am relatively safe there."

I couldn't help but feel a little relieved, but at the same time I couldn't help asking, "What happened next? What else did you experience after you were there?"

Xue Mei sighed slightly, a trace of sadness flashing in her eyes, and she slowly said, "Later, the demons attacked, and after the place where I lived fell, they began to capture women on a large scale. For my own safety, I had to leave, otherwise I would have been hard-pressed to escape capture."

"I took advantage of the chaos and left. I ended up having nowhere to go and could only run around and wander around."

"Later, in another accident, I was discovered by several demon soldiers. At that time, I had been running for several days and nights, and my body was very tired. In the end, I had no choice but to be captured by them." When Xue Mei said this, her voice became lower and lower, and her tone began to become heavy.

Hearing this, he didn't dare to imagine what would happen next, but he still asked in a low voice: "Will they give you..."

Xue Mei shook her head slightly and said softly, "No, I was indeed captured by them, but I met my brother later. At that time, my brother felt a blood connection between us and found me by accident. That's how we met. That's how my brother saved my life."

I opened my eyes wide and said in surprise: "I see! This is so lucky!"

Xue Mei nodded, a trace of gratitude and relief flashing in her eyes, and continued: "Yes, if it weren't for this special feeling, I might have been defiled by countless people by now. Therefore, I have always lived very cautiously, for fear of encountering such things."

I sighed and said, "I didn't expect so many things to happen later. It was really dangerous. I wish I was by your side, so that you wouldn't be in danger again without anyone to help you."

Xue Mei smiled gently and said, "Thank you for your concern, but fate is always unpredictable. However, I believe everything will be fine."

Just as he was saying this, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura emanating from the cave entrance. Xue Mei and he exchanged a glance, both of them with solemn expressions.

Then, they cautiously approached the cave entrance. The closer they got, the stronger the aura grew, as if some ferocious beast was lurking within. When they reached the entrance, they finally got a clear view of what was inside.

A faint light flickered not far from the cave entrance, as if something was rushing towards them. Xue Mei's eyes suddenly lit up, and she whispered, "This aura... is my brother!" She rushed to the cave entrance recklessly, but the next moment she let out a cry of surprise.

My heart tightened, and I hurried in, only to see Xue Mei's brother covered in blood and wounds. It was shocking. His face was as pale as paper, bloodless, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured.

"Brother!" Xue Mei cried and ran to his side. I hurried forward to check and found that Xue Mei's brother was breathing weakly and was in critical condition.

"What...what's going on?" I asked anxiously.

Xue Mei burst into tears and choked up, saying, "I don't know... I just know that my brother must have encountered some danger. We must save him!"

I nodded and quickly circulated my spiritual energy, trying to help Xue Mei's brother maintain his current injuries. However, due to my own serious injuries, I could only maintain his condition and could not fully heal him. Moreover, his injuries were too severe and required even more powerful energy to fully heal him.

"Hurry, let's move Shan'an into the cave. It's too dangerous here." I said to Xue Mei anxiously, and at the same time worked with her to move the seriously injured Shan'an into the cave.

Xue Mei and I struggled to move Shaan deeper into the cave, hoping to find a safe place for him to recover. Looking at Shaan's pale face and weak body, I was filled with worry.

Shan'an's injuries were shockingly severe; he closed his eyes tightly and remained motionless, seemingly unconscious. A closer look revealed that he had suffered a vicious sneak attack, leaving him completely defenseless.

There was a noticeable bruise on his back, as if he had been hit by a heavy object, and his clothes were torn in many places, obviously he had fought fiercely with the attacker. Judging from these signs, the attacker was no ordinary person and was quite powerful.

Xue Mei nervously stayed by her brother's side, tears streaming down her face as she sobbed uncontrollably. Seeing Shaan's horrific injuries, her heart nearly broke. I quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "Don't cry. Now's not the time to cry. We must find a way to save Shaan as soon as possible."

However, just as I was trying to calm Xue Mei down, suddenly, a deafening roar came from not far away. The roar was so loud that it almost pierced my eardrums, forcing me to cover my ears.

Xue Mei and I became alert at the same time and quickly turned our eyes to the direction where the sound came from.

Suddenly, a deep, heavy sound of footsteps echoed, as if the very earth were shaking. As the sound grew closer, a gigantic figure slowly emerged from the cave entrance. It was a massive, humanoid monster, its body as large as a hill, emitting a suffocating aura. It resembled a human.

The humanoid monster had a ferocious and terrifying appearance, its sharp fangs and claws flashing with cold light, and its body was covered with hard scales, each of which shone with a cold light. Its eyes were filled with malice, revealing a ruthless and cruel look.

The appearance of this demonic beast instantly made the entire cave feel oppressive, and the air was filled with a strong sense of malice. Its presence made people feel extremely terrified, as if all life would be devoured by it.

Xue Mei looked at the humanoid monster at the entrance of the cave, her eyes full of fear. She pointed at the monster with her finger in horror and said fearfully, "It must be it. It's the one that hurt my brother."

My heart sank when I heard Xue Mei's words. It seemed this demonic beast was the culprit behind Shan'an's injury. Judging from the aura it exuded alone, its strength should not be underestimated.

Facing such a formidable foe, a wave of worry welled up in my heart. Our current situation wasn't optimistic. Shan'an was severely injured and unable to participate in the battle. Furthermore, the monster was formidable, and our victory remained uncertain. However, I knew we couldn't retreat. We had to protect Shan'an.

I gripped the spear tightly in my hand, pointed the tip at the monster, and took a defensive stance. I took a deep breath, adjusted my breathing, and watched the monster's every move intently.

Xue Mei was so frightened that she hid beside Shan'an, trembling. Her eyes widened as she stared at the monster in horror, completely bewildered. At this moment, she could only rely on me to protect them.

Looking at the powerful magical beast in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little desperate. What should he and Xue Mei do? His injuries hadn't recovered yet, Shan An was still unconscious, and Xue Mei was so scared that she could only hide nearby.
