Chapter 322: Contradictions

It was getting late, and soon it was night. Therefore, the forest witches are all encamped, ready to prepare, and plan to rest.

Charlene was still sitting by the fire, thinking alone about the current form.

Although Charlene's purpose in coming to Biansai this time was to find the legendary Witch of the Forest, the legendary Witch of the Wood was just a rumor after all, and it was still difficult to say whether it really existed. In addition, they had also found out from the nearby residents that there was a legend that there was a forest witch haunted by the evil sect of the Misty Forest, so how to enter the interior of the forest had to be extra cautious.

So all this, we have to wait until the next day after dawn, and we can only make plans after we have a clear appearance, and I am afraid that no matter how much I think about it today, it will not help.

Charlene quickly stood up and stretched her muscles. Then she walked through the forest witches lying in the camp and circled around to the boy named Xiaoxin.

Seeing Charlene approaching him, Xiao Xin immediately stood up in understanding, and then followed Charlene to a small forest not far from the camp.

This is a routine between Xiaoxin and Charlene: whenever she has free time, Charlene will specially tutor Xiaoxin to master some combat-related skills. And after almost four months of training, although Xiao Xin can't say how skilled he is, his posture looks at least decent. This also made Charlene feel very relieved: her hard work in the past few months still seems to be worth it.

In the past few days, because she has just arrived at the junction of the two countries in the highlands and the country of heavenly glow, she has been busy surveying the terrain during the day, so Charlene can only have time at night to check Xiaoxin's training progress.

However, although Xiaoxin learns quickly, Xia Lin is still a little dissatisfied with the progress of their current training: after all, the situation outside is changing rapidly, and there is a possibility of facing unimaginable crises at any time. And in their group, there is really too little immediate combat power. Not to mention showing off their might and fighting with others, now they can't even protect themselves. Therefore, Charlene is indeed a little anxious, and wants to improve the overall level of the group as soon as possible to cope with the confusing changes in the outside world.

However, Xia Lin also understood in her heart that some things could not be rushed, so she was still very patient to guide Xiaoxin on the side to improve his strength little by little, without helping the seedlings and rushing to achieve success.

It's late at night. Xiaoxin finally finished today's training and packed up and planned to go back. As a result, at this time, a black shadow suddenly jumped down from a nearby tree and came straight towards Xiaoxin!

Xiao Xin was startled at first, and then quickly reacted, and immediately raised the sword that had not had time to withdraw to resist the attack of the incoming people!

The two knives intertwined with each other and collided with fierce sparks!

Charlene was a little surprised by the appearance of this uninvited guest at first, but after seeing the appearance of the person who came, Charlene became calm again: because this guy who suddenly appeared to attack Xiaoxin, in fact, Charlene and Xiaoxin also knew each other.

The person who came was called Nick, a hearty and clean teenager, and a member of the Lin Witch group. He is the same age as Xiaoxin, but his body is much taller than Xiaoxin, and his personality is more outgoing.

It stands to reason that everyone is a partner who gets along day and night, and the usual relationship is not bad. So Nick suddenly shot at Xiaoxin with a fierce momentum, which was somewhat unexpected by Charlene.

However, because in addition to guiding Xiaoxin's training, Charlene will also take the teenage-old, energetic and idle boys in the group to practice their hands, so Nick's raid on Xiaoxin this time, Charlene only regarded it as another random fight between the children, and didn't care too much.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Nick's face suddenly changed, and then he slashed at Xiaoxin's back! Xiaoxin was not as strong as Nick, so he was slashed hard as soon as he missed! If it weren't for Nick's previous slashing and careful to change the direction of the knife and use the back of the knife, Xiaoxin would probably have a big hole on his shoulder now!

But even so, Xiaoxin was chopped and collapsed to the ground. Charlene didn't expect Nick to lay such a heavy hand at first, so when she reacted, she became a little anxious. She hurriedly ran to check Xiaoxin's condition, after all, these half-sized children don't know how to deal with it, and it won't be good if something really happens.

After carefully checking Xiaoxin's condition, Charlene finally breathed a sigh of relief. Although Nick used a lot of strength this time, he still knows how to measure after all, so he didn't hurt his muscles and bones in this blow just now. But even so, Xiaoxin still had a long black and purple bruise on his shoulder. Looks like he won't be able to lift his hand for a few days.

Charlene frowned suddenly. But she didn't get angry, just stood up, and said to Nick helplessly: "Why don't you start at all without knowing the severity? He is thinner than you, how can you afford to slap him like this?"

Nick looked at Xiaoxin, but there was no trace of remorse on his face, but said casually: "Who knew he would be so weak?"

Xia Lin was a little unhappy: "How do you speak? You are not authentic when you carry out a surprise attack, and now you still look righteous when you hurt someone, don't you know how to be responsible for your actions?" Quickly apologize to Xiaoxin!"

Nick turned his head away and didn't speak, clearly unconvinced by Charlene's words. And his performance like this made Charlene's anger "puff up".

Instead, Xiaoxin stood up and persuaded Charlene: "Forget it, I'm fine......"

Xia Lin waved her hand to signal Xiaoxin not to speak. She took two steps to Nick's side and asked with a little suspicion, "I said you kid, don't you have an opinion about me?"

Nick crossed his neck and admitted: "Yes!" When he said this, Nick's tone was full of emotion, and it seemed that his dissatisfaction with Charlene had actually been accumulated for a long time.

Charlene was stunned for a moment, and then she looked up and down at the young man in front of her, who was already taller than herself, and couldn't help laughing: "You kid has grown a lot of temper recently." How do I remember that I never seemed to have offended you?"

For Charlene, these half-grown children are just children who haven't grown up in her eyes. The recent long journey has been really hard, so the children occasionally have some emotions, Charlene thinks it is understandable, and naturally she will not bother with them.
