Online Game: Crazy Skeleton-Chapter 1642 - 1447 This Joke Can’t be Played (Two in One)_3

"What’s going on here?" freēnovelkiss.com

The wild wind roared around him, akin to sharp blades, cutting his skin painfully. Faced with this sudden situation, his heart was filled with panic. When his gaze accidentally fell on Su Ran below, he finally understood the cause of this mess.

Dammit, he got played by this kid!

"Brother Overturning Water, we’re on the same side! I’m with the Misty Rain Guild!"

The man in the white robe had no intention of sampling the consequences of free-falling from high altitudes. He shouted urgently, and now Su Ran had suddenly become his lifeline. All his hopes rested on this kid!

Sure enough.

As soon as those words left his mouth, Su Ran immediately retracted the Air-restriction Stone, and the air-restriction domain disappeared in an instant.

The black eagle, regaining its senses, spread its Pair of Wings and barely managed to ascend again. The mountain summit had been stripped of a layer of soil by the violent winds, a clear testament to just how dangerous the situation had been moments ago.

The man in the white robe broke out into a cold sweat, feeling as though his soul was still floating in mid-air, unable to return to his body. His vision swayed for a moment before gradually restoring his sense of balance.

Even the black eagle under him was spiraling in the sky, utterly unwilling to descend.

"Buddy, come on down. It was just a joke earlier."

Su Ran’s hoarse voice carried up into the air, ringing clearly in the white-robed man’s ears. It made him so mad he almost wanted to leap down from the black eagle and have a heated debate with Su Ran!

A joke?

Is that what you’d call a joke?

That was practically fatal!

At this moment, the man in the white robe had completely lost his composure. His first encounter with Su Ran ended in such utter defeat, leaving him utterly humiliated and as bitterly frustrated as one could feel.

Minutes ticked by before the black eagle finally regained its calm and cautiously descended to the summit of the mountain, where its rider finally felt at ease.

It was no wonder the black eagle acted this way—once bitten by a snake, one would fear even the simplest ropes for ten years. The creature now harbored a psychological shadow related to this mountain, and if it fell again, its little heart might just give out entirely.

"Brother Overturning Water, meeting for the first time, and you’ve already taught me a profound lesson. You certainly live up to your reputation! I’ve been enlightened!"

The man in the white robe jumped down from the black eagle, his body staggering as he nearly stumbled. Holding onto the eagle for support, he steadied his stance. Even now, his legs were still slightly trembling, indicating just how deeply the earlier experience had affected him.

"The well water has splashed the dragon king’s temple; no hard feelings, alright?"

Su Ran walked out of Skeleton Village and stopped not too far from the man in the white robe. With curiosity in his tone, he asked, "Did the Misty Rain Guild leader send you for something? Is there a problem?"

"No problem at all. She just wanted me to let you know that the mineral veins in this mountain will be under my management from now on."

The man in the white robe brushed the dust off his clothing, his expression already returning to normal. "Rest assured, this is my task and responsibility. Until this mountain is completely mined out, I won’t withdraw. Besides, I’ll help guard your territory, per the Misty Rain Guild leader’s orders."

"Got it. Thank her for me."

Su Ran nodded in agreement as his gaze studied the man before him carefully. With a surprised hum, he asked, "Brother, you look unfamiliar. How should I address you?"

"I’m called Piaoxue. Brother Overturning Water, I look forward to your guidance!"

Piaoxue cupped his fists toward Su Ran politely and said, "I have a small request. I hope to spar with you—just a friendly match, nothing too serious."

"A spar? Sure!"

Su Ran readily agreed, tossing the bone orb in his hand onto the ground. "If you can crack open this bone orb, I’ll spar with you—combat or skills, your choice!"
