Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 107: Ye Xuan Gets Injured

What made Chu Miao more frustrated was their ability to dodge the attacks. They were like real demonic beasts that could not only dodge when attacked, but also counterattack.

Surrounded by more than twenty mutated rats, Ye Xuan and Chu adopted their previous fighting style and stood back-to-back when they realized that the rats could jump high and launch their own attacks as well.

Ye Xuan alternated between using the lightning and ice abilities. Sometimes he also combined them and every rat that was unfortunate enough to come into contact with such combined attacks turned into ashes immediately.

Chu Miao, seeing this, stopped playing around and formed a water sword that was a meter and half long and ten centimeters wide. Its thickness was almost a centimeter, making the sword extremely solid even though it was made from water.

She then turned into the little general and started using her spiritual power to increase her speed. This way, she didn’t give the rats the opportunity to dodge the attacks she delivered.

Within ten minutes, more than half of the rats were dead. The other rats seeing what had become of their companions became even more aggressive.

They attacked without restraint or fear and mostly jumped up aiming at the throat or the back.

Luckily, the two were strong and also stood back-to-back, thus preventing most of the attacks from succeeding.

As Chu Miao saw that only five rats were left, she became more excited because to her, the crystal cores from these mutated rats were too valuable.

They didn’t know if in the future they would be able to enter the space to cultivate anytime they liked. So, these crystal cores from mutated animals would become handy.

While she was thinking about this, she got a little distracted and only reacted when she sensed danger, but it was already too late.

A mutated rat had jumped so fast that it was unbelievable and was aiming at her throat. If this attack succeeded, even if she didn’t die, she would be a bit miserable.

As she reacted and wanted to use her teleportation ability and teleport away, she stopped herself because if she did that, then the rat would land on Ye Xuan behind her.

It was only a second of delay but the rat had already taken advantage of that and was only at a distance of ten centimeters from her.

As she made the decision to erect a water barrier in front of her to stop the rat, Ye Xuan seemed to have sensed something and turned to look.

When his gaze fell on the rat that was almost reaching Chu Miao’s throat, he felt as if his heart had stopped and he was gripped by a type of fear he had never experienced before.

It was a fear that went deep into his bones. Something he never wanted to experience again.

Without thinking about anything, he turned around at lighting speed and enveloped Chu Miao in his arms. At the same time, he turned around again just as the claws of the rat outstretched and swiped.

As a result, his back was left with three long gashes.

Even though it was raining and he had worn heavy clothes and a raincoat on top, apparently these layers of clothes couldn’t stop the claws of the mutated rat.

This showed just how hard and sharp those claws were.

Chu Miao, who had been in the process of forming a water barrier, was startled when Ye Xuan hugged her and turned around. She was so shocked that the barrier collapsed before it even materialized.

Before she could figure out what had happened, she heard the sound of clothes tearing and felt Ye Xuan stiffen a little for a moment before he relaxed again.

It took her a few seconds to understand what had just happened and when she did, she began to panic.

She knew that Ye Xuan had been scratched by a mutated rat from how he had stiffened his body.

She immediately struggled to get out of his arms only to see the rat preparing to attack again.

She suddenly felt a surge of anger she couldn’t explain where it came from and used her light spiritual energy to burn the rat to ashes.

She also burned the remaining two rats in the same way. It seemed that while she was distracted, Ye Xuan had killed two rats, with only three remaining.

"Are you okay?"

Before she could turn around and check on Ye Xuan, she heard his voice first asking if she was okay.

As he asked, he grabbed her hand and turned her around. The moment their hands touched, a jolt of electricity shot through their skin and went straight to their hearts.

If not for the lack of a burn, Chu Miao would have thought that Ye Xuan was using his lightning ability on her.

Ye Xuan experienced the same thing, and also wondered if his lightning ability could react with Chu Miao.

But he didn’t wonder too much as he was worried about her safety.

"Are you okay? Did you get hurt?" Ye Xuan asked the question again when he didn’t get an answer and even started examining Chu Miao and turning her around to see if she was injured.

Chu Miao raised her head to look at the man who had a face full of worry and concern for her even though he was the one who had been injured.

He knew that he had protected her but was still worried that an accident had happened, so he kept asking if she was okay.

For the first time, Chu Miao felt a sense of security that couldn’t be given by her family.

She felt secure and safe just by standing close to this man.

It was at this moment that she understood why some women would give up their careers and other aspects of their lives just to be with the person they liked.

If a man was willing to risk his life to protect yours, what else could anyone do?

"I am fine, but what about you? Let me see your back." Chu Miao finally replied when she realized that her silence had made Ye Xuan even more anxious.

When Ye Xuan heard her say she was fine, he sighed in relief, but as soon as he heard the last sentence, his body stiffened again.
