Chapter 125: Damn, I Really Deserve to Die

Xu Di was trembling all over, yet his face bore a trace of ferocity.

He just looked at Liu Hua like this.

Even though Liu Hua had been taking meticulous care of him and his Sister since they were very young.

Even though a long time ago, Liu Hua had knelt before his mother with carefully prepared roses to propose, only to be chased out the door by his mother with a broom.

But now, Xu Di truly had the urge to slap Liu Hua away.

Chen Yan's strength was indeed very great, but no matter how great, could he still remain unscathed under the assassination of a Platinum Rank Fighter from the Tianbei Fist Tournament?

What's more, this matter was not something that could be decided simply by whether one person was strong or not.

Chen Yan was Bing Yi, and Bing Yi needed to join the Dark Soul team, and then come to assassinate Chen Yan.

This matter, from the very beginning, required two people to cooperate.

Chen Yan did not have the ability to create clones.

Liu Hua was saving him, Xu Di, but on the other hand, he was cutting off Chen Yan's Life Force.

"You... you damn... you really deserve to die..."

Xu Di spoke with a trembling voice, his teeth clenched tight.

This path, from the very beginning, was to trade Xu Di's danger for a chance at Chen Yan's survival.

Liu Hua was silent, just standing there in front of the Camp Curtain.

The scorching summer sun shone through the gap between the two Curtain flaps, casting a beam of searing white light directly onto Liu Hua's back.

Looking at Xu Di's fierce and trembling gaze, Liu Hua only felt that the white light behind him had become exceptionally intense; it was very hot.

The tall, straight figure that had originally been imposing and towering, almost propping up the entire tent, was now slightly hunched.

"I know..." Liu Hua said in a low voice, his expression becoming incomparably pained and conflicted:

"This is your choice."

Liu Hua roared in his heart.

I really deserve to die!

He came before Xu Di, searching for something in his pocket with one hand.

"You... what are you doing!" Xu Di was greatly alarmed.

Liu Hua took out a syringe and injected the antidote inside into Xu Di's Neck:

"I am going to save Chen Yan."

He spoke in a low voice, yet regret surged in his heart.

He had indeed saved Xu Di, but to that Youth named Chen Yan, his actions were ultimately a bit too cold-blooded.

The other party's strength was very great; he could charge into the top twenty of the Tianbei Fist Tournament with SoulRefining Martial Dao and achieve the name of Bing Yi.

But the assassination by that person in the shadows would take a person's life in an instant.

Now, that Chen Yan had walked out on his own, leaving himself exposed before the assassin.

Liu Hua's expression turned ugly.

The next moment, with a boom, a burst of Blood Red baleful energy erupted from within his body, and the Camp Curtain was thrown into disarray by this wave of SoulRefining wind.

Feeling the medicinal power of the Knockout Drug in his body disappear, when Xu Di looked again, Liu Hua had already disappeared.

Gritting his teeth, Xu Di Stood Up and stumbled out after him.

Time passed slowly.

When Xu Di asked the various Military Officers and Li Qingyuan and the others.

He finally found Liu Hua at the moment the medicinal power had completely disappeared.

The dazed Liu Hua.

And Li Liangui, who, even though one of his hands was already broken, was still standing there in a daze along with the hundreds of dazed Military Officers.

They were just standing like that in front of a Mountain Cave.

Ancient Beast Corpses were piled up everywhere, with warm blood still flowing from them.

Blood soaked into the earth, and before the earth could absorb it, more beast blood would drip down.

Just like that, pools of blood appeared one after another.

Boom.

A massive Ancient Beast Corpse suddenly flew out from the pitch-black Mountain Cave, and a wild, baleful, bloody stench rushed toward them instantly.

Xu Di hurriedly drew the Long Blade at his waist, but the next moment he saw that Ancient Beast, the size of a Mountain, land in front of Liu Hua.

It was a twin-winged Tiger, its Belly showing a horrifying bloody Mouth, with organs and intestines spilling out from that bloody Mouth; it was dead beyond any doubt.

Blood mixed with rising Dust, staining Liu Hua's military uniform until it was very dirty.

But Liu Hua was silent, his eyes fixed firmly on the pitch-black Mountain Cave.

Until a handsome Youth, spotless and appearing as if he had not experienced a battle at all, stepped out from that Mountain Cave.

Liu Hua's Pupils shrank once again; although his face was calm, his thoughts were like ocean waves crashing wildly and constantly.

I really deserve to die.

"This..." Liu Hua began.

"I checked the Martial Merit Card, the Martial Merit Points don't seem to have been recorded very completely."

Chen Yan spoke, but his Gaze only swept over Liu Hua, the Main Commander, and landed on Li Liangui, who was currently gaping with his Mouth wide open.

This couldn't be blamed on the Martial Merit Card; ordinary First-Tier Ancient Beasts would explode into blood under Chen Yan's bombardment in an instant.

The Martial Merit Card simply didn't have time to sense them.

The stronger his strength became, the more Chen Yan found that the Martial Merit Card was prone to problems.

This shouldn't be his problem.

"Huh?"

Li Liangui glanced at Liu Hua beside him, then hurriedly spoke to Chen Yan:

"Martial Merit Points are used to record merit when there isn't much of it; once your strength is powerful enough, you can apply to have a Martial Merits Array Disk branded into your body.

The specifications of a Martial Merits Array Disk are many times better than a Martial Merit Card!"

As Li Liangui spoke, Liu Hua beside him spoke up:

"My people will conduct an overall tally of the number you have killed, you can rest assured about that."

Liu Hua's voice was low, but the intermittent sound of his breathing still revealed the complex, indescribable mood he was currently in.

Chen Yan nodded:

"I'm going to rest."

He was indeed tired; Heavenly Patrol was certainly useful.

But after activating Heavenly Patrol, that feeling of extreme exhaustion would also be fed back to the user at all times.

Compared to a Qingqiong Grade A Horizontal Refinement Breathing Method, Chen Yan's body was, after all, a bit too weak.

However, after an entire battle, Chen Yan's strength had also surged quite a bit.

His Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Strength had each grown one Grain Mark.

One hundred and three Grain Marks!

Don't look at it as only one mark gained for Tendon, Bone, Skin, and Strength, but this was just the harvest from a single battle!

In the past, Chen Yan would have likely needed various resources piled up to achieve this.

Resources are not easy to find.

Moreover, strength piled up by resources still requires one's own long-term fighting to adapt to it.

Using the Horizontal Refinement Breathing Method to train it out oneself is different.

Natural, harmonious!

【Breaking Saint Tree Level Four: 9/10

Strength: 30/100

Blood: 20/100

Technique: 80/100

Body: 19/100

Array: 70/100】

These are the current data of the Breaking Saint Tree.

As Chen Yan continues to fight and use Heavenly Patrol.

The Ji Character Fruit has now matured almost completely.

Probably one more battle like this, and it can successfully condense.

Chen Yan walked leisurely past Liu Hua, intending to find a quiet place to rest.

Just a moment ago, he had discovered a Monitoring Device disguised as a fly.

The Dark Soul side should be coming soon.

He was going to start fishing.

"Where are you going?"

Liu Hua hurriedly spoke, only to see that Chen Yan ignored him entirely.

Liu Hua felt nervous inside.

What he did this morning had indeed caused this Youth to harbor resentment toward him.

He reached out a hand, but watched Chen Yan leave without saying a word.

Is the other party really not afraid of death?

If he really died, Shen Yiwei would likely break his legs.

Just looking at the Youth's back, even if Liu Hua had many words he wanted to say, he found it difficult to speak them now.

Only when he watched Chen Yan jump onto the trunk of an Ancient Tree not far away did Liu Hua heave a sigh of relief.

At the very least, the other party had not gone far.

Xu Di was anxious inside, but at this moment, like Liu Hua, he chose Silence.

The sounds of Ancient Beasts no longer rang out, Li Liangui's subordinates began transporting the Ancient Beast Corpse, and Li Liangui, having lost a hand, went to the rear.

It was Liu Hua who began to direct the work.

With the Ancient Beasts here cleared out by Chen Yan alone, the clearing work for Ancient Beasts in other areas became much easier.

Moving further north, that was the territory being handled by the Yixian City Martial Guard.

The place Shen Youning went to was exactly there.

The work suddenly became much easier.

Liu Hua glanced at the figure still sitting cross-legged in the Depth of the Dense Forest, his heart extremely complex.

At the same time.

A cold Woman's voice rang out.

"Hasn't the processing here already finished? Why was my Yixian City Martial Guard asked to provide assistance?"

Liu Hua and the others looked over; a Woman in Black Clothes had appeared, who knows when, on top of a protruding rock above the Mountain Cave.

She was very beautiful, and the Black Clothes on her body were like ink-dyed silk.

On the hilt of the Long Sword carried on her back were inlaid several cyan jade stones.

Liu Hua's Pupil flashed slightly.

Song Yinchen, Yixian City Fifth Prodigy, possesses the strength of the Golden Body Realm Mid-Stage in SoulRefining Martial Dao.

It is said that she has long been valued by the Xia Imperial Clan and may head directly to the highest-level institution in Lao City after the college entrance examination.

There are extremely many Ancient Beasts here at the Mountain Cave, and Liu Hua has also clearly explained the situation here to Yixian City.

That the Yixian City Martial Guard dared to send only Song Yinchen alone also indicates their affirmation of her strength.

"The situation here has already been dealt with," Liu Hua spoke up.

"Then why didn't you tell us?" Song Yinchen frowned slightly:

"You caused me to come here and wasted a great deal of time."

Her voice carried dissatisfaction.

On the battlefield, timing is the most important matter.

Liu Hua's expression tightened slightly, but a Military Officer beside him who was still processing an Ancient Beast Corpse spoke up with dissatisfaction:

"We requested support from you long ago; it was you who were slow to arrive!"

Song Yinchen's expression turned sour, yet the Military Officer continued:

"If not for Chen Yan rushing over, we would have already become corpses; now you are the one blaming us first."

This Military Officer straightened his chest and met Song Yinchen's gaze.

Heavenly Pride?

So what?

I almost lost my life just now, do you know that?

Song Yinchen was silent for a moment, glanced at the pile of Ancient Beast Corpses the size of a hill on the ground, and realized the situation at this moment.

Following the awe-filled and grateful gazes of the Military Officers, Song Yinchen's line of sight passed through layers of obscuring forest leaves and saw the Youth resting while sitting on a tree trunk.

Very young.

Listening to these people discuss, the Ancient Beasts inside this Mountain Cave were actually handled by that Youth alone.

Taking a look at the corpse of that Third-Tier Peak Tiger, a trace of surprise emerged in Song Yinchen's eyes:

"A genius newly recruited by your side?"

Liu Hua did not answer, but instead asked:

"How is it on your side?"

"It can be confirmed now that the Ancient Divine Beast is on our side, likely at Three-Product Peak," Song Yinchen stated:

"Although Lu Mingxuan is there, this level of Ancient Divine Beast can radiate powerful Malice, and ordinary Military Officers simply cannot get close.

Therefore, we lack people, people with strong willpower."

Liu Hua was slightly startled.

Lu Mingxuan, Yixian City Third Prodigy, is also the number one in the Martial Guard.

Although that is on the surface, his strength is also extremely formidable.

His Cultivation Realm is only Unity Realm Mid-Stage, but his own Knife intent is already Three-Product, and it is said he can slay a Half-Step Origin.

His strength is probably comparable to that of the current Cloud Dream City First.

As Song Yinchen spoke, she looked at the resting Youth once more:

"If his willpower is decent, then have him come with me."

Liu Hua shook his head; he had already made a mistake once before, and now he could not make another.

The assassination belonging to Chen Yan does not know when it will arrive.

It is impossible to risk entering a dangerous situation now.

Song Yinchen frowned:

"Afraid?"

Liu Hua did not speak, but Song Yinchen said again:

"Then you come with me."

Liu Hua shook his head again:

"I am the Commander, how can I leave with you?"

Song Yinchen fell silent; she stared fixedly at Liu Hua, then her Gaze locked onto Chen Yan.

That handsome Youth, who was closing his eyes to rest, had not made a single move the entire time.

Song Yinchen knew that geniuses like them have extremely keen Perception.

Right now, she was clearly looking at him.

Yet that man did not even have the Danzhi to look at her.

A trace of coldness emerged in Song Yinchen's heart.

A Third-Tier Peak Ancient Divine Beast is very strong, and the Malice it erupts with can indeed cause those with unstable minds to fall instantly.

But if one does not face it, how can one become stronger?

The figure of the Youth named Lu Mingxuan appeared in her mind.

With talent as peerless as Lu Mingxuan's, didn't he also carve his way out one knife at a time?

Hiding here killing Ancient Beasts, one will never become stronger.

No matter how strong the strength is, without the courage to challenge the Malice of the world, one can only deceive oneself in a small corner.

True Strong Ones, like Lu Mingxuan.

Only when facing the endless Malice of an Ancient Divine Beast will they reveal the most supreme willpower!

It is a bit of a waste of time.

Song Yinchen did not speak.

Because there was no need to speak.

Immediately, the figure flashed, instantly Disappearing from the spot.
