Chapter 289

"Boom!"

A powerful energy fluctuation came from the snowstorm, followed by the sound of fighting in the distance. Clearly, someone was fighting.

"Someone is here."

Zi Chen looked up at the wind and snow and flew towards the direction of the fighting. After a while, he arrived at the scene of the battle.

However, he did not see a single living person. There was only a cold corpse lying in a pool of blood, its heart meridian shattered by a palm strike.

The ground cracked open, and the snow was trampled into a mess. A row of messy footsteps pointed forward.

Looking in the direction of the footsteps, Zi Chen could see some mottled blood. Clearly, someone was injured and vomited blood.

"It must be Ah Tian." Zi Chen thought to himself as he chased in the direction of the footsteps.

About half an hour later, Zi Chen found another corpse. This time, there was more blood on the ground.

Zi Chen used the Nine Lightning Deaths and rushed into the forest like a bolt of lightning.

"Puff!"

Ah Tian coughed out another mouthful of blood. He felt that he could not hold on any longer.

After escaping from Letian City, he was seriously injured. After watching the gathering of geniuses, Ah Tian thought that he would be safe after leaving Cangli City and heading to Yongqi City. However, he did not expect to meet people from Letian City.

After a fierce battle, Ah Tian was seriously injured, but he managed to escape.

After that, he was chased crazily.

Ah Tian was born in a mortal family. To be able to walk on the path of cultivation was his greatest opportunity. He had been cultivating diligently. Even without any resources, he still maintained a steady growth in strength. During this period, the effort and effort he put in was several times more than others.

The City Lord chose a genius to be his foster son and provided endless resources. Ah Tian participated. After an intense battle, he obtained first place. He was considered a dark horse and caused a huge commotion.

However, fate made fools of people. Ah Tian, who obtained first place, missed this spot. It was taken by a disciple of a family that supported the City Lord.

At that time, this matter caused quite a stir in Letian City.

Ah Tian could only settle for second place and become a foster son.

There was only one word difference between a foster son and a foster son. However, the distribution of resources was worlds apart. Ah Tian could only get one-tenth of the resources of a foster son. Only by removing the word 'foster' could he be considered a true member of the City Lord's Residence.

As for the other forces, although they wanted to rope in Ah Tian, the prestige of the City Lord was there. Who would dare to poach the City Lord?

In these three years, Ah Tian had put in much more effort than others. In a short three years, he had broken through several levels and become the number one person of the younger generation in Letian City. He had great battle prowess.

Using only one-tenth of the resources of others, he was able to surpass those geniuses within three years. Ah Tian's hard work could be imagined. After becoming a monster, it caused a huge commotion.

At that time, the city lord had been overjoyed and had personally held a banquet for Nie Tian. At the same time, he had invited all the major forces to personally witness Ah Tian becoming the city lord's adopted son.

At that time, Ah Tian was very excited. After becoming an adopted son, he would be able to enjoy endless resources, and his strength would naturally be able to break through quickly.

His years of hard work had finally paid off, and he could be considered to have achieved success.

However, all of this was just a fantasy. Man's calculations were never as good as God's.

On that day, the City Lord Manor encountered a great disaster. An outsider came to the Geng Family and killed the City Lord with a single strike.

As for the City Lord's adopted sons, they were besieged by the Geng Family and died one after another. Only Ah Tian relied on his powerful battle prowess to charge out.

He was very unlucky. Before he could enjoy the endless resources, he was chased down and forced to flee.

"Pfft."

Ah Tian spat out another mouthful of blood, and his vision became blurry. He could not hold on any longer.

Looking back on his life, it seemed that there was nothing else besides his own hard work. In this life, good luck had always brushed past him. It was as if he was born to be a person without great luck, and bad luck had always accompanied him.

The sound of something tearing through the air rang in his ears. The pursuers were coming again.

Ah Tian suddenly clenched his teeth, and blood blossomed from the tip of his tongue. He did his best to clear his mind and quickly ran forward.

"Bang."

When he reached a mountain ridge, Ah Tian finally could not hold on any longer and collapsed in the snow.

"Nie Tian, you must hold on." Ah Tian roared in his heart. The tenacity that had been nurtured since young had come into play at this moment.

He staggered to his feet.

"Swish." "Swish." "Swish."

At this moment, the sound of something tearing through the air rang out. Over a dozen black-clothed men appeared and surrounded him.

"Nie Tian, let's see where you can run to now."

"Brat, you killed so many of our people. Today is the day you die."

The black-clothed men slowly closed in, their eyes filled with killing intent.

"Kill!"

Ah Tian let out a roar, causing the forest to shake. He charged at one of the black-clothed men. Like Zi Chen, he fought with his life on the line.

"Pfft."

A sword brushed past Ah Tian's shoulder, leaving a bloody mark. However, Ah Tian's palm struck the black-clothed man's chest, fighting with his life on the line.

Ah Tian lived, and the black-clothed man died.

Another corpse appeared in the forest.

"You unlucky brat. You were born with bad luck. Today, even if you grow wings, you will not be able to escape."

One of the black-clothed men sneered and charged at Ah Tian.

Unlucky brat, Unlucky Ah Tian. This was how Ah Tian was addressed. Everyone in Letian City knew this name. This was a person who had not been lucky for several decades.

Everyone in Letian City knew about Ah Tian's matter. However, it was not because of his hard work, but because of his bad luck. He had become a laughingstock.

Of course, there were also many people who admired Ah Tian. In a situation where he did not have any resources, he was able to become a monster. Other than talent, it was more of perseverance and hard work.

"Bang."

Another strike was sent out. Ah Tian's vision blurred and he nearly fell. However, the tenacity that had been cultivated since young prevented him from fainting. At the same time, every strike he sent out was still ruthless.

Another black-clothed man died.

Without any resources, he cultivated step by step. Ah Tian's hard work was several times that of others. He had suffered a lot, so he was exceptionally determined. He was like an unkillable cockroach.

"Pfft."

A sharp sword light pierced through Ah Tian's shoulder. Ah Tian roared, his black hair fluttering wildly as he sent the black-clothed man flying.

The longsword was pulled out, and blood splattered.

At this moment, Ah Tian was covered in blood and cut a sorry figure.

"Nie Tian, today is the day you die."

"No one can protect an unlucky child like you."

The black-clothed men charged over, their eyes filled with killing intent. They were very strong. The weakest of them was at the Seventh Firmament of True Essence, and there were a few at the Eighth Firmament.

Even at his peak, Ah Tian was afraid of these people, not to mention the heavily injured Ah Tian. He could not even stand properly. Naturally, he was no match for them.

Just as they said, death was only a matter of time.

"You unlucky child. You are about to die, but you still killed so many of us."

"However, your bad luck has arrived. Today, you are going to die. This can be considered a release. You won't have to suffer in this world, not even having a good day."

Rays of light flashed, and a sharp blade pierced through Ah Tian's body. However, Ah Tian also sent out a palm strike on the black-clothed man's head.

Another black-clothed man died. At the same time, Ah Tian's figure became unstable. His eyes were about to lose focus, and he nearly fell to the ground.

"Kill him. He is about to die. Send out a few more strikes," one of the black-clothed men said coldly.

Whoosh.

However, at this moment, an ear-piercing shriek was heard. A silver light flew from afar, piercing through the air like lightning. It flew towards one of the black-clothed men who was close to Ah Tian.

Poof.

The silver light turned into a long spear, emitting an ancient aura. It pierced through the black-clothed man's heart. At the same time, the spear carried the black-clothed man hundreds of meters away, nailing him to a mountain wall. The handle of the spear was trembling.

One strike had nailed an Eighth Firmament warrior to death.

The sudden change caused everyone's expression to change. However, at this moment, a golden lightning flew over from afar.

"Boom!"

The golden light turned into a human figure. It was a cold young man. He landed on the mountain ridge like a giant. With a stomp, the entire mountain ridge trembled. Then, he rushed towards the black-clothed men.

The unlucky Ah Tian was about to collapse. However, the moment he saw the golden figure, his eyes that were about to lose focus lit up. There was a desire to live in his eyes.

He recognized the other party. Although he was very surprised and shocked, Ah Tian wanted to laugh out loud at this moment.

He had been unlucky all his life. Being able to step on the path of a cultivator was his greatest opportunity. Today was the second time in his life that he had been lucky. It was the second time he had met a benefactor.

Poof.

The golden light flashed. It was unusually sharp. A head flew up. Blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the mountain ridge red.

The newcomer was very fierce. He killed two people as soon as he appeared, shocking the others.

"Who are you?"

Everyone's expression changed. They were extremely shocked. The Yuan Qi surging around the newcomer was only at the Fourth Firmament of True Essence. However, his battle strength was very terrifying. He had nailed an Eighth Firmament warrior to death from afar.

"The one who will kill you."

Zi Chen's eyes were filled with killing intent. Lightning appeared under his feet. He rushed into the crowd like a ray of light.

Poof.

The golden light was dazzling. A sharp sword Qi flashed. Another person died. Blood splattered everywhere, dyeing the mountain ridge red.

Zi Chen's battle strength was absolutely fierce. At this moment, he rushed into the crowd as if he was in an unstoppable state.

Seeing this scene, Ah Tian wanted to laugh out loud. However, as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt a heart-wrenching pain. Moreover, he felt dizzy. Apparently, he had lost a lot of blood and was seriously injured.

"Boom!"

The golden light dyed the whole mountain ridge. Zi Chen's powerful attack caused the mountain ridge to shake. Rocks rolled down. The flying snow was crushed in the air. Another person was killed.

"Why aren't you taking the pill to recover?" Zi Chen suddenly shouted. He could feel that Ah Tian was getting weaker and weaker.

"Uh …" Ah Tian was startled. Where did he get the pill?

Not to mention the pill, he didn't even have a lot of Yuan Stones. He was embarrassed.

Swoosh.

At this moment, a porcelain bottle flew towards Ah Tian. Ah Tian caught it. Then, Zi Chen's voice sounded, "Hurry up and take it. Then, crush it and apply it to your wounds."

Ah Tian grinned. He looked very bright, but unfortunately, his body was covered in blood. His smile looked a bit ferocious.

"You only get lucky twice in your life. However, it's enough. The first time made me a cultivator, and the second time saved my life."
