This fierce battle left Du Jiujiu and his party exhausted, so they did not go back to Professor Sun's house that night and stayed directly in this villa.

After settling the seriously injured people, Du Jiujiu and Luo Yucheng, who were in relatively good condition, collected some food in the room. Although it was not much, it was barely enough for everyone.

After dinner, everyone could no longer stand the mental and physical exhaustion. After doing the final defense work, they all fell into a deep sleep.

This rest lasts for three full days.

During this period, except for Du Jiujiu who occasionally caught some prey nearby during the day, everyone was seizing the time to absorb energy in order to recover from their injuries as soon as possible.

In these three days, in addition to the bodies of Du Jiujiu and Luo Yucheng, An Cheng and Hu Xiaoyun also recovered from their injuries. Even Xiao Mo can get out of bed and move around. Only Wei Qingqing is still asleep.

, there is no sign of waking up.

It was another quiet night, with a red moon in the sky and stars all over the sky.

Du Jiujiu was alone in the spacious living room, holding a long knife in his hand and practicing the chopping movements over and over again.

Although he was just repeating the same action, with constant practice, Du Jiujiu gradually realized the subtle differences contained in the sword light every time he made a move.

Not only the strength and speed, but also your own breathing and even the heartbeat rate when swinging the sword can affect the effect of the sword.

As she swung the sword again and again, Du Jiujiu gradually gained more understanding of the sword technique. She immersed her whole body into it, and unknowingly reached a state of selflessness.

As she continued to practice, the muscles all over her body were trembling slightly under Du Jiujiu's almost harsh control, and a thin layer of sweat gradually appeared on her forehead, but none of this had any impact on her.

Time passed by minute by minute at the same time.

"Uh-huh!!"

Another sword flashed past.

This time, Du Jiujiu's actions seemed to be exactly the same as before, but they also seemed to be completely different.

After the long knife was withdrawn, a vase suddenly split into two on the table placed in the corner of the living room.

With this move just now, Du Jiujiu actually smashed a vase several meters away with just the strong wind brought by the long knife.

"Okay, Jiujiu, your sword skills have improved to another level!" A burst of clapping was heard, and An Cheng's voice came from behind her.

"It's so late, why haven't you slept yet?"

Du Jiujiu wiped the sweat from her forehead, put the knife back into the scabbard, turned around and smiled at An Cheng.

"I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to go out and relax, but as soon as I came out, I saw you practicing swordsmanship here."

An Cheng said, looking at the vase that had just been broken by Du Jiujiu.

"I have to say that you are indeed very talented in fighting. Although we have all changed a lot after awakening our powers, you are always one step ahead of us."

An Cheng had actually been standing here for a long time, but Du Jiujiu had been so absorbed in the moves that he didn't notice.

An Cheng could be considered a person who knew Kung Fu. He could tell at a glance that Du Jiujiu was in a state of selflessness that could only be encountered but not sought. Naturally, he did not make a sound to disturb her, but quietly watched her from the side.

"An Cheng, please stop teasing me. I'm just a power user. There is only so much room for improvement. If I don't work harder, I will be surpassed by you sooner or later."

Du Jiujiu pretended to shrug her shoulders in a relaxed manner, but there was still a hint of unnoticeable loneliness in her tone.

Power is an important ability that has saved her time and time again in critical moments, but it also limits her future.

Compared with other powers with infinite potential, power powers are too ordinary. There are no ever-changing tricks and no effective auxiliary abilities. Even in apocalyptic novels, power powers are like cannon fodder.

Even though Du Jiujiu is now relying on her strength that is far beyond ordinary people to crush other people with powers who have not yet grown up, in the near future, she will still be gradually left behind by others.

"Jiujiu, you have to believe in talent. Even if it's power, you are the strongest person I've ever seen. Besides, it's not so much the awakening of power that gave you the power you have now.

It’s better to say that you are a born warrior. Even in the end of the world, it is just a stage for you to shine.”

Compared to Du Jiujiu's carelessness, An Cheng's expression was very serious. She really envied Du Jiujiu's fighting talent.

You must know that Luo Yucheng taught her these fighting skills step by step for a long time, and then she practiced hard for several years before she became so skilled. However, Du Jiujiu relied only on herself to achieve such skills in less than two months.

, he was able to use the sword technique so proficiently that he even faintly touched the threshold of "sword intention" in the swing of the sword just now.

You must know that sword skills are not something that can be achieved overnight like awakening a superpower. It depends more on understanding.

If there is a lack of understanding, then no matter how powerful you are, it will only be brute force.

However, these words did not stir up any waves in Du Jiujiu's heart. She only thought that An Cheng was comforting herself and wanting to make her feel better. She did not want to dwell on this matter any longer, so she changed the subject.

"By the way, why can't you sleep suddenly? Is there something on your mind?"

Du Jiujiu asked with some doubts. In her memory, An Cheng always went to bed early and got up early. Insomnia like this was rare. Maybe he had something on his mind.

"Jiujiu, I do have something to say to you..." As expected, An Cheng lowered his voice and looked a little more hesitant.

"Why are you still hesitating? This is not like you." Seeing An Cheng's appearance, Du Jiujiu's doubts became more intense.

"Actually... I have decided to go to the Imperial Capital with my brother."

"What!?"

As soon as An Cheng finished speaking, Du Jiujiu's eyes widened in surprise.

However, although An Cheng's decision seemed very sudden to Du Jiujiu, it made sense when she thought about it carefully. Luo Yucheng was An Cheng's relative, and it was indeed a good choice for her to go to the imperial capital with him to develop.

"But, I don't want to be separated from you. How about we go to the Imperial Capital together? This subway station is a temporary stronghold and cannot protect us for a lifetime. I heard from my brother that the Imperial Capital has already established a base in the early days of the end of the world.

Our safety will definitely be better when we get there!”

An Cheng didn't wait for Du Jiujiu to say anything else, and quickly spoke again.
