Chapter Fifty-Four: A Cruel Victory

  Ye Chen leaned forward and fell, the eighteen knives behind him flew quickly towards the front under the action of inertia, surpassing Ye Chen.

  Su Hao pointed with one finger, and the eighteen knives that were advancing suddenly stopped, turned their heads and killed Ye Chen again. Ye Chen faced the rapid attack of the knife gas, flipped his body to avoid some of them, but only one knife stabbed Ye Chen's skin, leaving a very large wound on his back.

  Ye Chen slapped the ground with his palm and jumped up, his body slanting as he shot forward. At the same time, his fingers snapped continuously, and a series of sword energies shot out from Ye Chen's fingertips.

  The sword energy and the knife energy were equally sharp, and when they collided, they made a series of ringing sounds. One of the knife energies was eliminated, and he advanced a lot, soon approaching Su Hao.

  Su Hao's face was ferocious, gazing at Ye Chen who was approaching him. A sinister smile spread across his face as he moved his palm, and the remaining knife energy quickly gathered in mid-air, instantly converging before Su Hao.

  Su Hao said disdainfully: "Do you think getting close to me means you have a chance to kill me?"

  "Shut up!" Ye Chen didn't hesitate, his palm turned into a sword and directly scattered the long knife in front of Su Hao. Su Hao's face stiffened, let out a cold hum, and all the remaining knife energy surrounded Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen was also exhausted, his entire body covered in bloodstains, but he endured the same way. Even with severe injuries, Ye Chen still charged towards Su Hao, his movements swift and strange, dodging between the dozen or so long knives.

  Ye Chen's space to dodge was very small, getting injured was inevitable, but Ye Chen also counterattacked Su Hao during this period, his fingers snapping continuously, one after another thin sword energy rapidly shooting out.

  Su Hao's entire mind was focused on controlling the knife aura, and there were still fifteen long knives. Although they had weakened a lot after such a long time of control, or Ye Chen would have died early. But even so, Ye Chen was seriously injured again.

  Ye Chen's whole body ached, and if he relaxed even slightly, Ye Chen could imagine himself collapsing to the ground. But at this moment, it wasn't that Ye Chen couldn't fall down, but rather, even if he could, Ye Chen didn't want to.

  A strong will enabled Ye Chen to move back and forth in this narrow space, although he was seriously injured, but also left many marks on Su Hao's body.

  Su Hao dodged nimbly, but only when the sword energy attacked his vital parts did he use his hand to block it. The rest were allowed to strike him without any attempt to block them.

  The two of them were watching to see who could truly hurt themselves, both of them were gambling, betting on who would be the last one to kill each other off, and who would laugh in the end.

  Ye Chen's finger drew a sword aura that circled in mid-air, making a sharp hissing sound. The long knives stopped, but Ye Chen's fingers almost got cut off.

  Although the time was short, it was enough for Ye Chen. With a flash of movement, he appeared in front of Su Hao, who was shocked and hastily raised his hand to block him, but it was already too late.

  Su Hao's two legs were broken and his body was no longer agile, Ye Chen approached him closely, those knife auras also couldn't be controlled, if they all surrounded him, he would definitely get hurt.

  Moreover, Su Hao no longer had much energy to control these knife auras. His internal strength was exhausted, and although he recovered quickly, it was absolutely not as fast as the consumption.

  With a whoosh, Ye Chen's hand transformed into a sword, and with one slash, it landed on Su Hao's neck. Su Hao's head flew up in an unbelievable manner, hot blood spurted out, and Ye Chen's body was stained with it.

  Plop!

  Ye Chen directly sat down on the ground, this battle was the most dangerous one Ye Chen had faced since his debut, even more so than that Rong Feng guy. Although he didn't die like last time, that previous battle was only a Mortal Realm showdown, but this opponent was a Pre-Heavenly Boundary strongman.

  Ye Chen was extremely exhausted, so much so that he almost didn't want to move, with all his blood flowing. Earlier, there hadn't been time to stop the bleeding, and his one thought had been to kill Su Hao, but this battle was proving to be even more difficult than he had imagined.

  Ye Chen simply stopped the bleeding, then began to search Su Hao's body. From Su Hao's body, Ye Chen found a black book that he had been curious about, and on the cover of the black book was written the word "knife".

  Ye Chen was somewhat excited, this book must also be a very powerful secret recipe. As Ye Chen searched Su Hao's body again, he found two bottles of medicine, which were the same as Qin Mu's, emitting a refreshing fragrance that made people feel happy and relaxed.

  However, Su Hao had many more medicines on him than Qin Mu, with each bottle containing fifteen more.

  Although Ye Dust didn't know the names of these medicines, he knew that this medicine was absolutely good and had a very good therapeutic effect on injuries.

  Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, then poured himself a fragrant pill and swallowed it. He picked up Su Hao's black knife and stumbled away from the place.

  In this place, human blood is a tonic for the demon beasts. If Ye Chen were here, it's likely that not much time would pass before demon beasts came over. Now, Ye Chen can't even handle the lowest level of demon beast.

  Ye Chen carefully avoided the surrounding demonic beasts and headed back in the direction of the Yu Wang Stele. Along the way, he didn't encounter any danger, whether it was because of the previous gathering of dusk wolves or because of his own battle with Su Hao, which had emitted a powerful aura. In short, Ye Chen safely returned to the front of the Yu Wang Stele.

  Xiaoxue and Chen Tao were working hard to cultivate, in this Star City where the evil beasts roamed freely. The more power they had, the safer they would be. They couldn't always rely on the Yuwang Stele to protect them. If things went wrong, one day the Yuwang Stele might attract a powerful person or beast, and the three of them wouldn't even have a chance to escape.

  Seeing Ye Chen covered in blood and stumbling over, both of them rushed over in alarm. Xiaoxue cried out anxiously: "Brother, brother!" and went forward to support Ye Chen who was flustered and at a loss.

  "Hurry up, Xiao Xue, help Dust sit down quickly." Chen Tao said loudly from the side.

  Xiaoxue nodded and helped Yecen sit down on the blanket, looking at Xiaoxue's worried expression, Yecen smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine!"

  "This is nothing, look at the bloodstains on your body." Xiaoxue said worriedly. At this moment, Xiaoxue remembered the scene when her brother used to go out and fight for himself in Xing City, and he would also come back covered in injuries, making Xiaoxue always anxious.

  Xiaoxue's eyes were moist as she anxiously looked at Yechen, Chen Tao also felt unwell and quickly sat behind Yechen, channeling his internal energy into Yechen's body to heal his wounds.

  Among the three people inside, only Chen Tao's internal strength is suitable for healing wounds. Xiaoxue's internal strength is extremely cold and if she were to heal someone, she might end up freezing them to death instead.

  And Ye Chen, that sharp sword energy is a good way to hurt the tendons, let alone Ye Chen was injured, he can't heal himself, this should be possible, but Ye Chen is now in a semi-unconscious state.

  He Yexue said that sentence, Ye Chen was in this state, Chen Tao practiced Buddhist classics, the inner strength of finger pointing flowers is just and harmonious, it is indeed the best choice for healing.
