Chapter 343: A Kick
"Suicide?"
"Yes!" Jiang Yuan said gently:
"Only by committing suicide will that Ancient Divine Beast that is about to kill Cheng Le die completely, and you...
My friend, you are a hero.
You can still be a hero!"
Jiang Yuan's voice fell.
Cheng Le stood there, completely stunned.
"Suicide?"
"Yes." Jiang Yuan nodded, with extreme difficulty.
His gaze was soft, but inside his body, he was frantically driving that secret technique to bewilder Cheng Le's mind.
"Can I still be a hero?" Cheng Le asked tremblingly.
"You can." Jiang Yuan nodded:
"By ridding the world of a powerful Ancient Divine Beast, you are certainly a hero."
Cheng Le was completely bewildered; he clutched his head, crying and laughing by turns:
"I can still be a hero?"
"Suicide, I can still commit suicide."
"If I commit suicide, that Ancient Divine Beast that wants to kill me completely will die."
He appeared frantic, his face twisted, revealing a ferocious state.
He let out a low roar:
"I will kill you, you Ancient Divine Beast that wants to kill Cheng Le!!!"
Cheng Le was struggling.
The others in the room were stunned.
San Jin rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at Cheng Le, then looked at Jiang Yuan for a while.
"Yes, my hero.
Kill that Ancient Divine Beast and avenge yourself." Jiang Yuan spoke.
Roar!
Tang Chang, who had completely transformed into an Ancient Divine Beast, let out a low roar.
Roar?
Tang Chang also didn't understand what the current situation was.
At this moment, everyone was looking at Cheng Le.
Knock, knock, knock.
The sound of knocking on the door continued to ring out.
Jiang Yuan gritted his teeth; could they stop knocking on the door.
"I can still commit suicide!" Cheng Le laughed out loud:
"I can still commit suicide!!!"
Knock, knock, knock!!!
The knocking on the door sounded again.
Like a walking corpse, Cheng Le walked up the stairs to open the door.
"I can still commit suicide, right, Jiang Yuan?" Cheng Le asked.
"Yes, my hero." Jiang Yuan nodded earnestly, his eyes fixed firmly on Cheng Le's back.
Creak.
The door was opened.
Cheng Zizhen, holding an infant, stood blankly at the doorway, looking at her father.
Yet she saw that at this moment, Cheng Le's eyes were red as fire, his hair was flying in disarray, and the two eyes on his cheeks were wide open.
"Dad, you..." Cheng Zizhen said worriedly.
But after opening the door, Cheng Le simply walked into the basement on his own.
Jiang Yuan cursed inwardly.
He was about to commit suicide, yet he still opened the door for his daughter.
You really, you're killing me.
Cheng Zizhen followed behind Cheng Le, holding the infant.
It was her first time in this basement, and she looked around curiously.
When Cheng Zizhen saw Tang Chang in the basement, whose body was overflowing with black death lightning, her face turned deathly pale, and she screamed:
"Tang Chang, Dad, why is Tang Chang here!!!"
She was incredibly terrified, never expecting that Tang Chang, whom the villagers had been hunting down, was in her own home.
But at this moment, Cheng Le ignored his terrified daughter entirely, instead clutching his head and roaring incessantly:
"I want to commit suicide, I want to commit suicide..."
"Dad!" Cheng Zizhen ran to Cheng Le's side and screamed:
"What is this, why is Tang Chang here, why did you tie up San Jin and Jiang Yuan."
Cheng Le pushed his daughter away; he was still struggling.
He stood up with difficulty, struggled to reach Jiang Yuan's side, and begged:
"As long as I commit suicide, I can definitely become a hero, right?"
"Yes," Jiang Yuan said.
"Good, good!" Cheng Le nodded; he extended his hand, pressed two fingers together, and held them against his temple.
"Dad!!!"
Holding an infant, Cheng Zizhen ran to Cheng Le and grabbed him.
Her worldview was collapsing.
Tang Chang, whom the entire village was searching for, was right in her own home.
Jiang Yuan and San Jin, who had just arrived at the third layer of the Dream Abyss, were tied to stone pillars by her father.
And furthermore, her father wanted to commit suicide to become a hero.
What on earth was all this?
Cheng Le's fingers, which were about to pierce his temple, were held back by his daughter; he was somewhat stunned, and as he looked at her, tears welled up in his eyes:
"Zizhen, Dad lied to you."
Cheng Zizhen was stunned, her mouth hanging open.
"Actually, the Xun Thunder on Tang Chang cannot lead us out of the third layer of the Dream Abyss at all."
Cheng Le laughed out loud:
"The reason I told everyone those things was actually..."
Beside them, Jiang Yuan interrupted directly:
"Cheng Le, you want to be a hero now, you can't delay any longer."
Jiang Yuan cursed inwardly.
In this village, Cheng Le and the other examinees had actually already transformed into Ancient Divine Beasts.
Over these years, after these examinees gave birth to offspring, they would be unable to resist devouring their own children.
But offspring like Cheng Zizhen did not know they would be eaten.
They were deceived by Cheng Le and the others, believing that as long as they caught Tang Chang and obtained the Xun Thunder on Tang Chang, they could leave the third layer of the Dream Abyss.
Little did they know, every time they went out in a group, they would be devoured by the elders they were grouped with.
That Cheng Zizhen could survive until now was perhaps something she should thank her father's pathological love for.
But clearly, tonight, Cheng Le did not intend to let his daughter live any longer.
Because his daughter had actually shown favor toward Chen Yan, which made him incomparably furious.
Jiang Yuan had sorted out the various conspiracies of the entire village in a very short time.
But now, it didn't matter.
Cheng Le had to commit suicide first.
"Yes, yes, yes, I want to become a hero!" Cheng Le nodded as if waking from a dream, and he once again extended two fingers to press against his temple.
"Dad!" Cheng Zizhen grabbed Cheng Le again.
"Get lost!!!!"
Cheng Le roared.
Boom!
Cheng Zizhen was pushed by a massive force and slammed into the stone wall.
She was only slightly injured due to being in the Origin Realm, but the infant in her arms turned into a mist of blood under the shock of the massive force.
"Ahhh!!!" Cheng Zizhen screamed.
The blood mist permeated the stone room.
Roar!!!
Tang Chang, with wild thunder erupting all over his body, roared and greedily inhaled it.
At this moment, even the crazed Cheng Le was stunned; his nose twitched, and he couldn't help but inhale this blood mist.
So fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant, so fragrant!!!
Cheng Le opened his mouth wide, and the eyes on his cheeks widened:
"I want to commit suicide."
"So fragrant!"
"I want to become a hero!"
"So fragrant!!!"
He roared, his entire body trembling.
He was like a trapped beast shrouded in a curse, struggling and growling, radiating a chilling malice.
Until a certain moment, he crouched on the ground, clutching his head:
"Ahhhhhhhhh!!!!!"
He roared in fury.
On his cheeks, those two eyes began to squirm like insects, the pupils rolling rapidly.
With a squelch.
Two small hands tore through the eyeballs from the inside out and stretched out.
Following that, under Jiang Yuan's stunned gaze.
These two small hands grew frantically outward, turning charred black; the arms that shot out withered rapidly, and eyes grew one after another upon them, incomparably hideous.
Cheng Le was still roaring, but his body began to shrink continuously, turning into a husk.
These two newborn pitch-black arms drained his body dry.
Immediately following, the bases of these two two-meter-long arms adhered together, and two shriveled mouths spitting out black tongues grew upon each of the two hands.
A pitch-black thigh grew out from the side of each arm.
Just like that, Cheng Le's entire body turned into a shriveled skin bag.
The new Cheng Le was two pitch-black arms growing a pair of legs.
He stood there on the spot, his aura terrifying, endless malice spilling out.
The two hands pressed down slightly, the eyes on the arms looked toward Jiang Yuan, and the mouths on the hands erupted with a sharp, shrill screech:
"I am not being a hero anymore!!!"
"Ahhhhhhh!!!!"
Cheng Zizhen screamed out, incomparably terrified.
Jiang Yuan's gaze dimmed all of a sudden; he opened his mouth, his voice growing a few degrees hoarser.
"San Jin, do you still have any way?"
San Jin hung her head, speaking with difficulty:
"I... I am sorr..."
Jiang Yuan pursed his lips and gave a bitter laugh:
"It seems I must die now."
He closed his eyes, in a state of almost waiting for death.
The next moment, he suddenly roared:
"Chen Yan, strike quickly!!!"
Boom.
A thick arm slammed directly into Jiang Yuan's body, and strands of pitch-black malice poured into Jiang Yuan's body like flowing water.
Cheng Le grinned hideously:
"That Chen Yan died long ago!
A piece of trash who relied on his family to become a General Star, do you really think he is that impressive?!"
Jiang Yuan spat blood, his hands hanging limp, and he gave a miserable laugh:
"I didn't lie to you."
Boom!
The giant hand struck out again.
Jiang Yuan spat blood again:
"I was wrong, brother, I lied to you.
Stop hitting, Brother Cheng Le."
Boom boom boom boom!!!
The giant hand struck.
Jiang Yuan spat blood, but his gaze began to change.
One moment struggling, one moment cold.
Just as he had said, once one consciousness completely erodes another.
Then Jiang Yuan should be dead.
Jiang Yuan gave a bitter laugh.
What the hell is all this.
To the side, Cheng Zizhen was in a state of extreme disarray; she watched this scene, her consciousness collapsing.
The world that belonged to her seemed to have caved in.
At this moment, who would still remember that Third-Rank General Star named Chen Yan?
San Jin hung her head and closed her eyes.
When Jiang Yuan roared that 'Chen Yan', she really had looked toward the front.
But nothing appeared.
It is good that nothing appeared.
Chen Yan cannot die.
She thought as much.
If Chen Yan also died, then her mission this time would be a complete failure.
Her death would also be completely without value.
Yet at this very moment.
The giant hand that was punching Jiang Yuan suddenly stopped, slowly turned around, and the eyeballs on the arm locked in unison toward the staircase.
Tap, tap, tap.
A sound of footsteps rang out, and the hem of a pitch-black General Star uniform entered everyone's view.
A pair of long, slender legs unfolded before everyone's sight, stepping onto the stairs one by one.
"Fuck!" Jiang Yuan cursed out loud in an instant.
San Jin slowly raised her head, and that handsome face appeared within her blurred vision.
The young man's expression was calm, and deep within his two eyes, which were like deep pools, flickered tiny specks of golden light.
Cheng Zizhen, collapsed in the corner, stared blankly, her breathing rapid, tears streaming down instantly as she screamed:
"Chen Yan, hurry... hurry and run!!!"
But that young man did not leave at all; instead, he walked very calmly to the center of the stone house.
"Why the hell didn't you show up sooner!!!" Jiang Yuan spat blood and let out a low roar.
"I just rushed back," Chen Yan said, looking at San Jin.
A trace of a very, very miserable smile appeared on the girl's lips.
"Then launch a sneak attack, go ahead and launch a sneak attack, buddy!" Jiang Yuan was completely falling apart:
"You're just putting on an act here..."
If Chen Yan had arrived even a second earlier, he wouldn't have been beaten up so miserably.
Some scumbags always prioritize their own composure, ignoring the fact that their teammates are still getting beaten up.
"The stone grade of this house is quite high; it's very sturdy, so it's not easy to launch a sneak attack," Chen Yan replied again.
Jiang Yuan opened his mouth, suddenly rendered speechless.
The two of them just talked like that.
Roar!!!
A thunderous roar rang out; Tang Chang's entire body erupted with lightning, extremely furious.
"Don't!"
Cheng Le, who had turned into two arms and two legs, spoke; the eyes on the arms stared at Chen Yan and addressed Tang Chang:
"Calm your anger first, I will deal with him."
After speaking, Cheng Le suddenly charged toward Chen Yan.
A giant hand instantly grabbed at Chen Yan's head, malice roiling upon it.
But the moment this arm approached Chen Yan, the eyes upon it were flickering frantically.
They met Chen Yan's pair of sharp and cold eyes.
"Tang!!!"
Cheng Le let out a great roar.
He realized something was wrong.
But Chen Yan had already made his move, raising a foot and then slamming it down!
The speed was even faster!
The power was even more ferocious!
Golden light flooded his right leg, triggering an air explosion, and rolling waves of air swept through the entire stone house in ring after ring.
Boom!
This kick slammed into the junction at the base of Cheng Le's two arms.
The moment the two made contact, the latter caved in, bones snapping, and was smashed into the ground accompanied by a shockwave.
Boom, boom, boom!
The terrifying golden light was as dazzling as the great sun, and waves of air swept out like a hurricane.
Cheng Zizhen was swept up by the hurricane and slammed against the wall.
San Jin's previously listless eyes instantly widened.
Jiang Yuan opened his mouth wide and roared out with extreme difficulty:
"Fuck!"
