Capítulo 1577: Chapter 1539: Dark Night Sect Elder_2

Song Xiaodong immediately responded: “I can’t escape, but you’d better dare to come up, or why don’t you try showing your heads.”

“Bastard, do you really think we don’t dare? Charge!”

With a loud shout, a shadow emerged from behind a large rock.

Through the infrared night vision goggles of the **gun, Song Xiaodong could clearly see it was just a rock being thrown, but as soon as the rock appeared, he didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger.

“Bang!” The rock was shattered into pieces, and the arm of the person holding it nearly went limp from the shock.

Song Xiaodong wanted to intimidate them, to show them that if they dare show themselves, he could shoot their heads off with a single shot.

This tactic of Song Xiaodong’s was quite successful.

The opponents were all greatly shocked, none of them had expected Song Xiaodong’s marksmanship to be so accurate, charging in would be seeking death.

But if they didn’t charge, would they just watch Song Xiaodong escape?

“Should we take this opportunity to leave?” Chu Xianling asked.

Song Xiaodong turned around and leaned against the rock with an easygoing demeanor, saying: “It’s not the time yet; we need to take out a few more of them.”

Even in the darkness, Chu Xianling could still roughly see Song Xiaodong’s expression. On his face, she saw no trace of tension or panic.

Chu Xianling softly said: “Mr. Song, you truly have the demeanor of a general! Staying calm in chaos is not something an ordinary person can achieve.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled and said: “To receive such praise from Miss Xianling is truly my honor.”

“Mr. Song, if you don’t mind, I’d like to address each other by our names, just like how Yushi does.”

“Sure, I’ll call you Xianling then.” Song Xiaodong grinned.

“Xiaodong!” Chu Xianling also showed a sweet smile.

This change in address signified that Chu Xianling genuinely regarded Song Xiaodong as a friend. In Beijing, few had the privilege to call Chu Xianling that way.

Song Xiaodong then turned around again, peering through the night vision goggles, while Chu Xianling just hid behind the rock watching him. Even though she had a gun, at this moment, it was of no use.

Two rocks flew over from the opposite side, but Song Xiaodong didn’t move.

After waiting for dozens of seconds, two more rocks flew over, yet Song Xiaodong remained still.

Then, several figures sprang out, and Song Xiaodong immediately pulled the trigger.

“Puff puff!”

With the sound of gunfire, two people fell to the ground, the rest immediately hid behind rocks, and then there was a burst of random shooting in this direction. However, they clearly had no sniper, no infrared sights, so they couldn’t see Song Xiaodong’s position, making their random fire completely ineffective.

After firing two shots, Song Xiaodong withdrew, leaning leisurely against the rock.

Chu Xianling leaned beside him, saying: “Xiaodong, I think they must be very frustrated now. They thought we would flee, not expecting that we’d stay here and whittle them down.”

Song Xiaodong laughed, saying: “Indeed, we need to seize every opportunity to eliminate their combat power to increase our chances of escaping.”

Chu Xianling smiled slightly and said: “In terms of strategy, I’m nowhere near as skilled, so I’ll just follow your lead, Xiaodong.”

Song Xiaodong said: “Right now, we can only wear them down, but I fear it won’t last long. I have a limited amount of bullets, at most I can take out three more of them.”

Chu Xianling said: “Regardless, I stand with you, let’s face this together.”

“No problem.” Song Xiaodong said with a grin: “To face strong foes alongside Xianling is my honor too.”

Chu Xianling said: “If anyone else said that, I might feel it’s normal, but being with Xiaodong, I feel it’s my honor, that’s the true experience of life.”

Song Xiaodong smiled and said: “Let’s stop flattering each other and get ready to deal with them.”

The opponents tested out several more times, but Song Xiaodong kept his cool and didn’t take action. When they actually charged forward, Song Xiaodong took out another.

Front to back, Song Xiaodong already took out five of them; of the dozen or so experts pursuing them, about half were dealt with.

This really aggravated the opponents. If Song Xiaodong were just waiting out, they could wait him out too. But the main worry was that Song Xiaodong might slip away instead of waiting.

So every few minutes, they would test by rushing forward to see Song Xiaodong’s reaction.

Song Xiaodong seized this psychological edge to turn the situation from passive to active.

Of course, it also required cooperation with the right time and place. If it were daytime, without such a steep canyon on both sides, Song Xiaodong would have had no way to leverage it, and the opponents would have already flanked him.

After Song Xiaodong dealt with two more of them, he pulled Chu Xianling and said: “Let’s go, I’m out of bullets.”

Chu Xianling said: “That’s really a shame, if you had enough bullets, we could have exhausted all of them here today.”

Song Xiaodong chuckled lightly and said: “There are still top-level experts on the opposing side, that’s very difficult. While they are hesitating to come up, we should get away as far as possible.”
