Chapter 45: The Fourth Person
Bang!
Su Chen fell to the ground heavily as he spat out a mouthful of blood . At the same time, he raised his hand to cover his face .
Even at this point, he didn’t want Zhu Xianyao to see his face .
Sark was obviously much stronger than Shen Yuanhong . In addition to his own personal strength, he had many treasures on him .
This wasn’t that surprising . Even though the Sand Race wasn’t the human race, he, as the most trusted subordinate of the Sand Race’s leader, was definitely going to be richer than Shen Yuanhong, a Bloodline Nobility Clan elder in some remote city .
Su Chen wasn’t able to triumph over Sark in terms of either wealth or strength, so he could only try to clean up the situation after dealing Sark a serious blow .
But no matter how helpless he felt, Sark only felt more aggrieved and angered .
“You actually wounded me to this point! Dammit, dammit, dammit!” he howled madly, his head tilted at an unnatural angle as he lay in a pool of his own blood . “I won’t lose!”
“Dammit, you’re still not dead yet?” He Xu cursed as he clutched at his midsection . He gestured, and a few streaks of light slammed into Sark’s body .
Sark didn’t even react to that attack . He exerted all the energy in his body to raise his arm . Under his control, the river of golden sand undulating forward once again, continuing to advance at Su Chen .
“Psh . You can still struggle on your deathbed?” Su Chen gestured, and a few Thunderfire Balls flew through the air .
Boom, boom, boom, boom!
Large swathes of flames surged forward, blasting the golden sand aside . One of them even sent Sark flying through the air .
However, this opponent was quite resilient . He unleashed another palm strike directly at the lizard on the ground .
Bang!
This gentle blow reawakened the lizard from the illusory realm .
“Haha, go and kill them!” Sark yelled loudly .
That lizard charged towards the three of them .
“NO!” Zhu Xianyao’s face revealed a desperate expression .
At that exact moment, however, a low whistle suddenly sounded out from off in the distance .
When it heard that whistle, the lizard immediately charged off into the darkness .
Immediately afterwards, the sound of a fierce battle broke out . However, under the cover of darkness, it was impossible to tell what was going on .
“What’s going on?” Sark was stunned .
“Nothing much . It’s just a friend of mine,” Su Chen replied .
“Then isn’t he showing himself?” He Xu and Zhu Xianyao asked simultaneously .
“He’s a bit wary of strangers,” Su Chen replied .
He Xu and Zhu Xianyao glanced at each other . They obviously couldn’t figure out why Su Chen was acting so secretively .
“NO!” Sark howled in despair and rage .
He was just about to succeed when someone else had interfered yet again . How could he be willing to accept this situation?
The anger in his heart and his serious injuries then caused him to die on the spot .
Zhu Xianyao said angrily, “You still aren’t going to lower your hand? Or are you going to cover your face forever?”
Su Chen sighed and lowered his hand .
An extremely common and bland face appeared .
“You……” Zhu Xianyao was stunned . She had never seen this face before . It took her a moment before she realized what was going on . “You’re still disguising yourself?”
Without Sark’s Eagle Eye, Su Chen could use his camouflage again .
“Instead of getting upset over this, take some time to recover,” Su Chen said as he tossed out a few Recovery Medicines at Zhu Xianyao and He Xu .
“Drink the red vial and pour the blue vial on your wounds,” Su Chen said .
He simultaneously pulled out a vial of blue medicine and began to rub it on his arm .
A decent-sized chunk of flesh had been cut off of his right arm, and a long wound covered his chest . His internal organs were threatening to burst out . However, as soon as the blue medicine came into contact with the wound, countless strands of fibrous tissue began to interlace over the wound, quickly returning it to its original state . In just a few moments, Su Chen’s broken arm had begun to fuse together again .
“What kind of medicine is that?” Even Zhu Xianyao had never seen a medicine with such miraculous recovery abilities like this before .
“A very expensive medicine,” Su Chen replied .
After using the medicine, Su Chen’s wounds quickly healed to such a point that he was able to stand, but the broken bones wouldn’t be able to heal immediately . Even with the aid of the medicine, they would still take some time to fully recover .
If only there was some kind of technique like Devouring the Heavens with an incredible recovery ability and no unhealthy consequences, Su Chen sighed to himself .
If he had time, perhaps it would be worth researching .
The commotion in the darkness was still ongoing, but it had quieted down quite a bit .
The conclusion came swiftly .
Not long afterwards, the commotion finally died down .
The quiet footsteps sounded out again, but they seemed to be disappearing off into the distance .
When Su Chen, He Xu, and Zhu Xianyao found the other battleground, they could only find the lizard’s corpse . Its opponent had already disappeared without a trace .
They came silently .
They left silently .
He Xu and Zhu Xianyao were a bit stunned .
It was Su Chen who said, “This place is about to collapse . You guys should go and dig out those precious stones while you still have time . ”
He Xu and Zhu Xianyao snapped out of it and hurried to the tunnel to try and mine the precious stones . Su Chen, on the other hand, returned to retrieving the remaining secret items in the space and using some medicines on Sark .
A Light Shaking Realm cultivator was truly rare .
To Su Chen, this guy was a great experimental material .
The two of them came to the tunnel lined with precious stones .
Zhu Xianyao said as she tugged at the stones, “These stones won’t belong to me anyways . Why should I help you harvest them?”
“Because you were the one who lured that bastard over here and wasted our time . Also, I was imprisoned by you for a month, woman . If it weren’t to give Su…… face, I definitely wouldn’t let you get away with it!”
Zhu Xianyao’s hand froze . “To give who face?”
“Ah? I said…… to give my friend face,” He Xu replied .
Zhu Xianyao’s expression fell . “No, you didn’t say friends earlier . ”
He Xu chuckled nervously . “You really are always suspicious . Perhaps you just heard me incorrectly?”
Zhu Xianyao’s expression grew dark . “You just said the word ‘Su’…… this guy’s surname is Su, is it not?”
He Xu licked his lips nervously . “I don’t know what you’re talking about . Su? What Su? I think you heard incorrectly . ”
“You’re lying!”
Zhu Xianyao’s voice suddenly grew shrill and her eyes were filled with anger .
He Xu cried out in panic silently .
He had forgotten that this damned woman could tell if he was lying or not .
Zhu Xianyao advanced on He Xu . “Why would you lie? Why would you deny it? So what if his surname is Su? Why can’t you tell me…… Oh my God . ”
Her expression had totally changed by the time she stopped speaking .
She stared at He Xu . “He’s Su Chen, isn’t he?”
He Xu swallowed with great difficulty . “I don’t know what you’re talking about . ”
“You’re lying!” Zhu Xianyao continued .
She turned around and saw Su Chen walking out of the dark room with Sark’s body in hand .
He had finally taken care of everything in the room .
When he saw Zhu Xianyao and He Xu standing next to each other, Su Chen was a bit surprised . He instinctively asked, “What are you guys doing?”
“Su Chen!” Zhu Xianyao said .
Su Chen froze .
At that moment, time seemed to freeze as the three of them stood there .
Su Chen remained motionless .
