Chapter 83: One Hundred and Thirty Kilometers
The night is deep and quiet, the moonlight like frost, pouring into this deep and secluded Senlin.
If Chu Feiyuan's Howling were not so hysterical, this uniquely beautiful tranquility would not have become noisy.
"You actually already had an Awakening, you really already had an Awakening!"
Chu Feiyuan's face is pale, clutching his leg that had already been shattered by Chen Yan's Spear, his whole body trembling; the sound he roared out carried a measure of despair and anger.
"Don't scream."
Chen Yan steps on Chu Feiyuan's other lower leg, suddenly applying force.
Crack!
It broke.
"Ah!" Chu Feiyuan roars again.
Chen Yan Frowns, and with one foot, he breaks Chu Feiyuan's thigh again.
"I told you, stop screaming."
Sweat pours from Chu Feiyuan's Forehead like a spring, yet he uses both hands to cover his Mouth tightly, making 'woo-woo' sounds.
He dares not Howl anymore.
This Youth, who usually looked calm and would endure it himself when bullied without daring to retaliate, is at this moment revealing a ferociousness before him that makes him feel extreme Scream.
The other party will kill him the moment he loses interest in him.
He absolutely will, he absolutely will!
Chu Feiyuan roars in his heart; he is afraid, he regrets it, and even with the intense pain, he cannot suppress the fear in his heart at this moment.
Who knew Chen Yan was this kind of person.
Chen Yan looks at Chu Feiyuan indifferently; if it weren't for the fact that the other party's Method of masking his Aura just now surprised him, he would have truly blown the other party's Brain apart in an instant.
Chen Yan currently has Twenty-two Strength Patterns, fifteen Bone Patterns, Fourteen Skin Patterns, and six Tendon Patterns.
Fifty-seven Extreme Forging Patterns!
If converted into the Cultivation Realm of SoulRefining.
Chen Yan has actually already entered the Hundred Meridians Realm; he is a genuine Second-Stage Warrior.
The Extreme Forging Realm practices Breathing Method to strengthen the five senses.
Coupled with the subtle 【Red Ridge Body Casting Canon】, Chen Yan can even clearly perceive the rhythm of the airflow within five hundred meters.
If it weren't for the fact that when he left just now, Chu Feiyuan let out a Breath, it was this Breath that caught Chen Yan's attention.
Otherwise, Chen Yan's assassination attempt this time would have definitely failed.
"How exactly do you hide your Aura?"
Chen Yan squats down, a pair of Pupils as cold as a deep pool meeting Chu Feiyuan's gaze:
"I originally thought you were a total Waste, I didn't expect you to have outstanding points." He says quietly; underestimating an opponent is the behavior of the weak.
He has been able to develop in peace until now because people have been ignoring him.
He just didn't expect that he would, like others, make such a fatal mistake.
"Can you tell me why?"
Chen Yan waves one hand, an Ice Spike appears and stabs into Chu Feiyuan's Belly; in an instant, blood flows out, and the intense pain almost causes Chu Feiyuan's Brain to faint.
"I!!!" Chu Feiyuan roars out:
"I will say it, I will say it, ah!!!"
Pfft!
Another Ice Spike stabs into Chu Feiyuan's Belly, and gurgling blood flows out from the two Ferociousness blood wounds.
To the side, Si Wenyi watches in Silence.
Chen Yan is not the type of pervert who likes to torture others to derive pleasure, but the cold-bloodedness displayed at this moment makes even her shudder.
"Then hurry up and speak; I am only doing this because I am afraid you will keep chattering."
Pfft!
Another Ice Spike is inserted into Chu Feiyuan's Belly.
Chen Yan is expressionless; in his heart, Chu Feiyuan is already a dead man.
"It's an Array, it's an Array, Chen Yan, spare me..."
Buzz!
A cold current comes from Chen Yan's palm, covering Chu Feiyuan's Belly; in an instant, the blood congeals, and Chen Yan grabs Chu Feiyuan's left hand, the Cold Intent seeping out again.
"Also, stop talking nonsense."
The Martial Grade Ding-Rank Yin Powder instantly freezes Chu Feiyuan's left hand into an Ice Sculpture.
Crack!
Chu Feiyuan's left hand instantly shatters into countless Yin Powder Ice Crystal.
"Ah..." Chu Feiyuan opens his Mouth wide, breathing tremblingly; the fear mixed into every Breath is almost about to condense into substance.
This is Chen Yan, this is Chen Yan!
How is this a Country boy that everyone can bully; this is a Demon who kills without blinking.
"It's an Array, it's an Array with... secretive properties!"
Chu Feiyuan speaks tremblingly, and lines of secret text suddenly appear on his face like dancing elves, then disappear instantly.
It is actually unable to be maintained for too long.
He is too severely injured.
No.
Must condense.
Otherwise, Chen Yan would kill him.
"Ah!!!"
He roared, using every ounce of his willpower, and those Dao Patterns emerged once again.
Chen Yan's Pupil flashed, observing those Dao Patterns.
Within the Po Saint Realm, yellow lights representing Formation Energy emerged.
He could now also condense Martial Grade Yi-Rank Protective Patterns; in a sense, Chen Yan was a master of arrays.
At a glance, Chu Feiyuan's Array Patterns were only Upper Grade, and Chen Yan could parse out some of the principles himself.
The next moment, the patterns on Chu Feiyuan's body began to gradually dissipate.
Bang!
Chen Yan crushed the forearm of his broken hand:
"Hold on a little longer."
"Ah!!!" Chu Feiyuan screamed, the patterns on his body solidifying once more.
Today, he had truly broken his limits.
He trembled, his Brain constantly assaulted by terror.
The thoughts in his mind had shifted from taking revenge on Chen Yan, to escaping quickly, to wanting to survive, and finally to wanting to see the morning sun.
Until now, it had become a desire to live for one more hour.
If he had known Chen Yan was this kind of person, he absolutely, absolutely would not have deprived Chen Yan of his spot in the True Martial Class.
The other party had actually achieved Awakening of SoulRefining, and killing him was as simple as killing a chicken.
He was truly the stupidest Donkey under Heaven.
"I have no strength left, Chen Yan, let me go..."
Bang!
Chen Yan crushed Chu Feiyuan's other hand: "Look at you, why do you always Dream?"
Chu Feiyuan closed his eyes, trembling incessantly.
Chen Yan, however, slightly raised his chin: "This isn't a Concealment Array, it's a Displacement Array, it just carries the nature of concealment."
Tears flowed uncontrollably from Chu Feiyuan, and the thought of how Chen Yan could instantly identify the nature of his patterns appeared in his mind.
But the next instant, this thought was suppressed again by the despair of being near death.
"It's hard to imagine, although this array is only Upper Grade, it shouldn't be used so trashily by you."
His slender Finger rubbed his Forehead, and Chen Yan breathed a sigh of relief: "Luckily you are trash, otherwise I would really be in trouble."
"Where did you get this array?" Chen Yan asked.
Most methods for cultivating arrays come from the Observation and Imagination of Ancient Divine Beasts.
Although Chu Feiyuan used it very trashily.
Chen Yan still saw the power of this array; Chu Feiyuan must have only simulated it sloppily, otherwise he wouldn't be such a Waste.
"It is..." Chu Feiyuan opened his Mouth, he paused, the Scream in his eyes clearly reaching its peak.
"Hmm?" An Ice Crystal appeared in Chen Yan's hand, which then pierced into Chu Feiyuan's body.
Chu Feiyuan spat out a mouthful of blood, but his expression was tightened to the extreme.
"Chen Yan..."
Si Wenyi squatted down, placing one hand on Chen Yan's Shoulder, thinking of something:
"Perhaps, he knows about that matter."
Chen Yan's Pupil shrank slightly.
Which matter?
The matter that Luo Puxin was investigating.
Recently, young boys and girls had gone missing in several County Towns near Luoshan County.
The Military Martial Guard had set their sights on the Ancient Divine Beast.
Wang Lu, whom Chen Yan killed, had kidnapped living beings in order to feed the Ancient Divine Beast.
But the number of kidnappings by Wang Lu was not that high.
Continuing the investigation, Xu Di found traces of the Ancient Divine Beast, and was subsequently beheaded by Chen Yan.
But the number of missing persons still did not add up.
Chen Yan discovered the Corpse of Zhou Jiayi at Qingshan, and Luo Puxin set his Gaze upon the Chu Family.
Subsequently, they investigated the Chu Family Qi Blood Factory and discovered the Ancient Divine Beast.
Chen Yan swept away the Qi Blood Potion inside the Qi Blood Factory, and the Chu Family moved that Ancient Divine Beast to a new Qi Blood Factory.
Later, they specifically brought several young boys and girls into the new Qi Blood Factory.
These matters had been under the surveillance of Luo Puxin, so Luo Puxin led people to raid the Chu Family's new Qi Blood Factory.
Yet they discovered they had been played by the Chu Family.
Those few young boys and girls went to the Chu Family Qi Blood Factory just to smell the blood, and they were living perfectly fine.
Luo Puxin naturally refused to admit defeat, and before returning to Lao City, he privately entered the interior of the Chu Family to search for information.
Yet he only found evidence of the Chu Family absorbing a massive amount of resources from Luoshan County.
As the matter developed, it seemed the Chu Family had no connection to the missing boys and girls case.
But now...
"Is it you!"
Si Wenyi, who had been silent, looked coldly at Chu Feiyuan.
Previously, Chu Feiyuan would say anything to stay alive, but at this moment, it was as if he had thought of something; even when Chen Yan tortured him again, he did not open his Mouth.
"What... what?" Chu Feiyuan asked, trembling.
"Where did you learn this Array?" Si Wenyi asked, her face icy cold; months of investigation had long since left the Logistics Department in a state of Fatigue.
At this moment, having suddenly discovered a clue, how could they let it go?
"Array..." Chu Feiyuan's expression shifted, but he closed his eyes.
Si Wenyi gritted her Silver Tooth.
At this point, how could she not understand?
Luo Puxin had aimed his spear at the entire Chu Family, investigating two generations of the Family Head, and even Chu Lan, the Father of Chu Xuansheng.
Because these few people had all once held great power.
And Chu Feiyuan, although he was the brother of Chu Cang and Chu Lan, was only a Second-Rank Martial Officer in the County True Martial Office.
He belonged to those who collected a salary for doing nothing.
Starting from the True Martial Class, he had even fallen to managing the Blood-Sniffing Room.
It would be no exaggeration to call him a Waste.
Who would fix their Gaze upon such a person?
They were wrong.
The Military Martial Department was wrong, and Luo Puxin was also wrong.
To the eyes of those at the bottom, a person like Chu Feiyuan was high and mighty, impossible to look directly at.
But in the eyes of the high-level figures, he was merely a small character, not worth caring about.
It was originally just like that; the other party was the corner of Darkness ignored by everyone under the bright light.
Yet, as it happened, Chu Feiyuan had been plotting against Chen Yan from the very beginning.
Until now, when Chen Yan bared his fangs at him due to other matters, the entire chain of events suddenly became clear.
A flash of inescapable despair crossed Chu Feiyuan's Pupil, and he trembled as he said: "If I speak, can you let me live? You can strip me of everything; I only wish to live under an assumed name."
He let out a Howling:
"I want to live."
Death is Darkness, the end of everything, the most desperate node in a person's Fate.
"Storage Elder Teacher." Chen Yan's Mu Guang was calm:
"I do not kill people."
Chu Feiyuan closed his eyes and let out a miserable Laughter.
Chen Yan actually wanted to humiliate him to this extent.
…………
Li Qingyuan was left as if abandoned, placed by Chen Yan upon an Ancient Tree, and Si Wenyi had even specifically placed an Electronic Device beside him that could drive away Ancient Beast.
From Li Qingyuan, Chen Yan drew a conclusion.
That is, one must always carry the antidote.
Otherwise, accidentally injuring a teammate would be truly absurd.
Chen Yan dragged Chu Feiyuan, and he and Si Wenyi walked quietly through the dim Shanlin.
Until they reached a place where the ground was covered in thick moss, which, under the illumination of the Moon, looked like Silver brocade.
In the end, they had arrived at the place where Chen Yan had discovered the Corpse of Zhou Jiayi.
The character 【Chu】 written in blood had already been destroyed by human hands.
It was just that last time, Luo Puxin had searched everywhere starting from this location, yet had not discovered any traces of the Chu Family.
"How much further?" Chen Yan asked.
"One hundred and thirty kilometers." Chu Feiyuan said tremblingly; his wounds were all frozen, and at this moment, his Breath of life had dropped to the extreme.
