Chapter 98

The ancient trees in the forest were tall and lush. The ancient trees were like dragons, strong and powerful as they took root in the ground.

Wang Xian 'er's body was riddled with injuries and fresh blood was flowing out. Her red clothes were torn in several places, revealing her jade-like skin that was glowing. At this moment, she felt very wronged. That damned lecher had really left and left her here alone.

Her beautiful face was stained with blood, making her look pitiful and heartbreaking. Around her, the group of black-clothed men looked indifferent and sneered at her.

"Haha, your little lover has run away. I don't care about you anymore."

"That's right. Seems like your eyesight isn't good. How could you fall for such a trash?"

"You're also a True Energy Realm cultivator. Why would you fall for Zi Chen, that pretty boy in the True Energy Realm? He has neither strength nor looks."

The group of black-clothed men kept mocking Wang Xian 'er, but their attacks were fierce and deadly. Wang Xian' er couldn't hold on any longer.

"Lecher, if I, Wang Xian 'er, am lucky enough to survive today, I won't let you off." Wang Xian' er teared up. She felt wronged and angry at the same time.

"Haha, seems like your love has turned into hatred. But that pretty boy is really not worthy of your affection."

"Don't worry, you won't die. We can still give you one more chance. We'll capture you to blackmail that pretty boy and see if he still has feelings for you."

The group of black-clothed men laughed mockingly and attacked even more fiercely. Those Xiantian Realm cultivators were usually strong, but they were nothing in this place. They could only make sarcastic remarks to provoke Wang Xian 'er.

At this moment, the cry of a Roc could be heard, followed by a few other cries.

"What's going on? Didn't the Roc go after that brat?" Everyone was stunned, not understanding why the Roc had turned back.

"The Roc is back. Could it have caught that brat?"

Someone raised his head and looked towards the sky.

At this moment, a loud roar could be heard. "You bunch of trash, bullying a weak girl. You're worse than beasts. Let me, Zi Chen, teach you a lesson."

A silver light flew over from afar like a bolt of lightning. With extreme speed, it dashed towards the group of black-clothed men.

Zi Chen used his body as a sword and became one with it. He exuded an oppressive chill as he pointed at the crowd.

"Stop him!"

"They are indeed a pair of adulterous men and women. They actually came back."

"Looks like we made the right choice."

Seeing Zi Chen return, the black-robed men's eyes lit up, and they all attacked. However, Xiantian realm existences were nothing in front of Zi Chen's Man Sword Unity. They were sent flying along with their weapons by Zi Chen.

Then, Zi Chen dashed towards the eight True Energy Boundary cultivators. His eyes were filled with ruthlessness and silver light.

"Shua!" "Shua!" "Shua!"

Streaks of sword light flashed, and one weapon after another flew towards Zi Chen. Zi Chen raised his hand to block, and with a cracking sound, his dagger shattered, turning into specks of cold light that brushed past his cheek.

In an instant, Zi Chen dashed into the encirclement. His body was already covered in wounds. The reason why he didn't die under the attacks of the True Energy Boundary cultivators was because his body was too strong.

Zi Chen was covered in wounds. His clothes were disheveled, and he was bathed in blood. He was in a sorry state as he dashed towards Wang Xian 'er.

Wang Xian 'er hated Zi Chen to the core before. But at this moment, seeing that Zi Chen had returned resolutely and was trying to break through to the True Energy Boundary, she was extremely touched. She couldn't hold back her tears, and they fell like pearls.

"Don't be sad. Let's go."

Zi Chen pulled Wang Xian 'er and dashed out of the crowd.

"You want to leave? It's not that easy."

"Die!"

The black-robed men reacted. All kinds of weapons flashed as they attacked Zi Chen.

Sword lights flashed as unparalleled sword intent wreaked havoc.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

In an instant, several clear sounds rang out. The wounds on Zi Chen's body increased, and some of them were very deep.

Zi Chen's expression was firm. He didn't move and used his body to protect Wang Xian 'er. He didn't want her to be hurt again. Like a bolt of lightning, he dashed out of the encirclement. Silver light flickered around his body, and light flashed under his feet.

"Pfft! Pfft!"

A sharp weapon pierced through Zi Chen's shoulder, causing blood to spurt out. A sword light slashed across Zi Chen's neck. At this critical moment, Zi Chen tilted his head, and the sword light flashed past with a layer of blood.

The sword light flashed, and Zi Chen's arms were slashed several times. White bones could be seen as the wounds opened up.

Zi Chen grimaced in pain, but he didn't give up. He dashed left and right, determined to break out of the encirclement.

Blood splattered as more wounds appeared on Zi Chen's body.

"What kind of body constitution does this guy have? How is he still alive?"

"His body constitution is even more terrifying than Xuan Heaven demonic beasts. Attack his vitals."

The sword light whizzed past, aiming for Zi Chen's vitals.

At this moment, his life was in danger. The silver energy in Zi Chen's heart couldn't supply him anymore because his injuries were too severe.

Just as his life was in danger, light flashed under Zi Chen's feet. Suddenly, he became even more bizarre. It was as if he had transformed into a bolt of lightning, and his speed increased by a lot.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!"

Zi Chen's body flashed as he fled with Wang Xian 'er. Numerous fatal attacks brushed past his body, but he didn't suffer any injuries.

"This …!"

Everyone's expression changed drastically. They attacked again, but the result was the same. Zi Chen's body seemed to have become light, boneless, and flexible. He was like a fallen leaf in a raging wind. Although they were constantly being attacked, they couldn't tear this fallen leaf apart. It could always move with the wind and neutralize the strongest tearing force of the wind.

Although it was dangerous to be on the verge of death, it proved Zi Chen's agility and ingenuity.

The current Zi Chen looked like a real bolt of lightning, flashing and disappearing in a flash.

"I have finally mastered the First Flash of the Nine Flashes of Lightning. I have comprehended the true intent."

Zi Chen's potential was completely stimulated at this moment of life and death. He broke through the First Flash of the Nine Flashes of Lightning at an extremely fast speed.

In the blink of an eye, he dodged many attacks and rushed out of the encirclement.

"Swish!"

Zi Chen fled with Wang Xian 'er. Everywhere he passed, he left a trail of blood. There were many wounds on his body, and blood flowed out like a small river. His bloodied face was pale, and he was on the verge of breaking down.

Wang Xian 'er looked at Zi Chen in disbelief. She allowed him to hold her boneless hand. She was already prepared to die with Zi Chen. It wasn't that she had fallen in love with Zi Chen. It was just that there was no other way.

Zi Chen was protecting her, and there were dozens of wounds on his body. It was a ghastly sight. Her hatred for him was also weakening, but she still didn't think that they could survive.

But she didn't expect Zi Chen's speed to become even faster in the next moment. After a few times, he actually rushed out of the encirclement.

He actually broke through when his life was in danger. This was completely beyond Wang Xian 'er's imagination. Moreover, Zi Chen's current speed was frighteningly fast. One had to know that he was only in the True Qi Realm.

"Can you still do it?"

Zi Chen rushed out of the encirclement with Wang Xian 'er. However, his body was covered in wounds. There were dozens of wounds, and it was a ghastly sight. His body was covered in blood and flesh, and it was a horrible sight.

"Don't worry. As long as I'm not caught, I won't die." Zi Chen gritted his teeth. Then, he took out a porcelain bottle and poured it into his mouth.

Wang Xian 'er was shocked. She saw that Zi Chen was eating Xiantian Pills, and he even ate two of them. She immediately exclaimed, "Are you crazy? You'll explode if you eat Xiantian Pills. You should take some healing medicine."

Zi Chen grimaced as blood flowed out of his body. He said, "I don't have any healing medicine."

Zi Chen's words made Wang Xian 'er's heart ache. She was about to take out her own healing medicine to give to him.

"I don't want it. Xiantian Pills are good. You should quickly recover from your injuries." Zi Chen said.

Zi Chen fled with Wang Xian 'er. Above them, the cries of the roc and the angry shouts of the black-clothed men could be heard.

Two hours later, Wang Xian 'er discovered another thing that moved her. She realized that the wounds on Zi Chen's body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Dozens of wounds were ghastly and horrible to look at. However, the bleeding had stopped at some point in time. Furthermore, some of the wounds that weren't deep had already healed and formed scabs.

"How is this possible?"

Wang Xian 'er looked at Zi Chen as if she was looking at a monster. She saw that the wounds on his body were healing. Previously, she could see the white bones of the huge wound. However, at this moment, it was shrinking bit by bit. After two hours, it had become a shallow wound with only a small seam. Furthermore, it had already formed scabs.

Previously, Zi Chen's face was extremely pale. However, after two hours of fleeing, not only did he not consume much of his energy, but he also died from his injuries. Instead, his face was rosy. It was obvious that his injuries were almost healed.

"Is he a monster? How can his body's recovery be so strong?

Could it be that he didn't consume the Xiantian Elixir previously, but some kind of elixir? "This guess was instantly dispelled. Wang Xian 'er was confident that she could recognize the Xiantian Elixir.

He didn't die in the Thousand Illusionary Sword Formation, he didn't die after being attacked four times by the Imperial Air Realm experts. Now that his life was in danger, not only did he not bleed to death after running for two hours, he even recovered from his injuries.

In Wang Xian 'er's eyes, Zi Chen had become extremely mysterious. This was a man that was like an enigma.

As his injuries recovered, Zi Chen's speed became faster and faster, leaving the black-clothed men far behind. The roc was still chasing after Zi Chen and could still barely catch up.

However, the black-clothed men behind them still hadn't caught up. The roc was very anxious. It swooped down continuously, but it didn't dare to attack Zi Chen.

The roc flapped its wings, stirring up gusts of wind that constantly harassed Zi Chen. Under the gusts of wind, Zi Chen had no choice but to slow down.

"These damned beasts." Zi Chen cursed. These roc birds were really troublesome.

If it wasn't for them, these Martial Ancestor's men wouldn't have been able to find him.

Wang Xian 'er had already consumed the elixir and her injuries were recovering. Although her recovery speed wasn't as fast as Zi Chen's, she had recovered some of her strength. However, she was still being held back by Zi Chen.
