A swarm of crows blanketed the sky, obscuring the sun.
The sky dimd instantly.
Village Chief Li looked at the scene before him, his fingers trembling violently, as the flas wavered and were thrown at the black crows.
The sll of burning perated his nostrils, and everything before his eyes turned pitch black.
For a mont, he thought he was back to yesterday when they were attacked by mutant locusts.
The Bai Family was much calr.
Bai Xiqin’s fingers moved slightly, and steel needles wrapped in frost danced in the air, piercing the temples of one crow after another.
Leng Yebai was surrounded by purple lightning, which surged like a purple waterfall towards the crows in front.
Wang Yiyun’s fingertips overflowed with strands of purple lightning, whipping the crows in the sky like a long whip.
Bai Anhai and Bai Zhengxuan were not to be outdone, unleashing flas and lightning at the crows.
The one with the most dynamic movents was Bai Yifan.
His body glowed with a yellow light, holding a dagger as he swung it wildly with his eyes closed.
The sharp dagger glimred with a faint yellow light, seemingly slicing through the air itself.
Randomly slashing a crow or a kin.
Bai Xiqin and Liu Jing, standing beside Bai Yifan, glanced at him and silently stepped to the sides.
With Mr. Bai as a precedent, the Bai Family was now very afraid of being collided by Bai Yifan, and now there’s another fear of being cut by the disobedient son.
The Bai Family showed their skills, leaving not a single crow to fly into the bunker.
The superpower users in the village didn’t even get a chance to make a move.
Those superpower users wanted to help but found their powers insignificant compared to the Bai Family’s, with their abilities causing no ripples at all.
They could only cheer from behind the Bai Family.
The dense crows took relentless turns, one by one crashing to the ground.
The crows, driven madly, didn’t fly away, each one flying towards the bunker direction.
In the eyes of Village Chief Li and those with a first-person perspective, the crows seed to co forward seeking death.
At a distance from the bunker, a pair of n and won kept their eyes on the bunker surrounded by a mass of black crows.
In their view, a dark swarm of crows encircled the bunker, their raspy calls ceaselessly echoing.
It seed as if the bunker could be swallowed at any mont.
The two exchanged a glance, standing still, seeing panic in each other’s eyes.
The man’s hands were suddenly surrounded by scorching flas, the woman’s by cold frost.
Flas shot forth like a flathrower towards the dark mass of crows.
The scorching flas emitted an eerie glow, spreading rapidly amongst the black crows.
Bai Xiqin saw just a flash of fire outside, and then saw swathes of crows falling to the ground.
The flas seed magical, incinerating the outermost crows to ash, the wind blew, and black ashes scattered with it.
The intense flas baked those at the bunker entrance, and before Bai Xiqin could raise an ice wall to block the fire, an ice wall ford instantly in front of her.
A refreshing sensation spread throughout her body.
In less than a minute, the ice wall disappeared, the crows gone.
Only the scattered crow carcasses and a thick layer of ash remained.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai instantly dashed in the direction.
The direction where the Fire Ability User and Ice Ability User were located.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai were fast, but those two superpower users were even faster.
When they arrived, they only saw broken branches and lingering warmth.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai scanned the surroundings but noticed nothing unusual.
On a nearby large tree, two people wearing black masks were crouching, motionless like statues.
Even though Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai were less than ten ters away, they didn’t discover them.
"Let’s go!"
Bai Xiqin turned towards the bunker, walking away.
Leng Yebai nodded, following closely behind Bai Xiqin.
A crack sound.
The woman in the black mask couldn’t hold back, taking a step in Bai Xiqin’s departing direction and accidentally stepping on a dry branch.
The man and woman instantly tensed up, holding their breath, motionless.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai seed not to hear the branch snapping and continued towards the bunker.
The two slightly relaxed, exchanging looks, seeing restraint in each other’s eyes.
"Who are you?"
Bai Xiqin’s clear voice suddenly sounded from behind.
Their bodies stiffened montarily, raising their heads to look towards the bunker, and in their mont of relaxation, Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai’s figures had disappeared.
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai circled around to co up behind them.
They did not turn around, silently standing on the tree.
"It was you who saved Baiyang Village, right!"
Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai took a few steps on the ground, arriving beneath them.
As long as they lowered their eyes, they could see Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai.
Their gazes were dazed, seeming to have no courage to look down.
"May I ask, are you from Baiyang Village?" Bai Xiqin’s voice resounded again.
She hadn’t seen these two, thinking they shouldn’t be from Baiyang Village.
But their actions were too strange, seemingly knowing them, yet also not.
What is certain is their powerful superpowers, at least beyond the fifth rank.
The flas and ice wall they manifested just now were ford almost instantly.
At such a distance, Bai Xiqin’s power was far from enough.
Having survived three years in the apocalypse, she hadn’t encountered such powerful superpower users, nor heard of anyone’s abilities surpassing the fifth rank!
The two before her, very mysterious and powerful.
But they were very peculiar, seemingly afraid to et her eyes.
They didn’t answer, so Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai stood their ground, silently watching the pair above.
After a while, the man’s throat let out a suppressed sigh, and then both jumped down from the tree.
Both wore black masks, the man tall and straight-backed, exuding a scholarly aroma even behind a mask.
The woman had a pair of gentle eyes, her dark pupils carrying an endless softness, yet despite having such gentle eyes, her actions were crisp and decisive.
"We... passed by here, saw you being attacked by crows, and offered a small help."
The man’s voice was gentle, like a school substitute teacher’s.
"Thank you for your help." Bai Xiqin smiled at the man and woman.
Even knowing their powers were terrifying, Bai Xiqin felt no fear, instead sensing a strong friendliness from them.
As if they were her family.
"No need to thank us, it was nothing."
The woman looked deeply at Bai Xiqin, her bloodshot eyes filled with restraint Bai Xiqin couldn’t understand.
