Chapter 74 Liver produces mysterious wood!
Heavy rain pounded on the abandoned construction site, and muddy water flowed down the broken bricks, washing away the blood on the ground until it was very diluted, leaving only a dark red spot in the crater.
A man in black robes knelt in the rain, his chest pierced and his breath coming in short gasps. He struggled to lift his head, his vision blurred by the rain, the icy water stinging his eyes so hard he could barely open them.
"Where did this madman come from... Damn it..."
Before him stood Su Chen beside a half-concrete wall, covered in blood, his coat ripped open in several long gashes, revealing shocking injuries. Yet Su Chen seemed oblivious to the pain, holding a phone and explaining himself.
"It's 8:30, bro. I just got out of class. Wait for me to get ready and I'll come find you. I've been so busy lately."
After hanging up the phone, Su Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, managing to get away with it.
He had been staking out members of the Xuanjing Society recently, and finally caught sight of one acting alone. He had to admit that this member of the Xuanjing Society was fierce and cruel, with terrifying strength. He even had the rudiments of several external appearance techniques, which left Su Chen covered in wounds. Fortunately, he managed to use his own external appearance technique to shatter the opponent's chest.
"We did it."
A deep weariness and lingering fear flashed in Su Chen's eyes. His voice was very soft, as if he were comforting himself.
"With money, I can help support my family and also ease the pressure on my brother."
Although his older brother was a genius at school, he entered the world early and saw things clearly. He understood that his older brother, Su Ye, was just a resident in the hospital and was struggling to make ends meet. Last time he went out with Su Ye, although Su Ye acted very generously, he knew that Su Ye's wallet was not very wealthy. Thinking about it, Su Chen felt very uncomfortable.
He can't always be the one being taken care of.
Su Chen approached the Xuanjing Society member and said in an icy voice:
"Your target is that little girl, she's only a few years old! What exactly is the purpose of you beasts? What are you trying to do by collecting information?"
The Xuanjing Society member, soaking in the rain with blood flowing through his veins, stared intently at Su Chen with resentment in his eyes and said, "Collecting external appearances is, of course, about observing them and studying their techniques. Your external appearances will eventually be placed in the Xuanjing Society."
"Observe..." Su Chen looked at his fingers, the uncontrollable spasms and tremors containing destructive power. He suddenly realized something, his expression tightened. As a medical student as well, he instantly understood what Xuan Jinghui meant by "observe".
"You all deserve to die; everyone has the right to kill you."
Su Chen was about to kill the person in front of him, but a smile suddenly appeared on the man's lips, making Su Chen's heart pound. At the same time, gusts of wind swept through the rain.
The hairs on Su Chen's back stood on end, and his scalp tingled. At the same time, a chilling light flashed and struck, catching Su Chen completely off guard. It was a long sword!
puff!
On a rainy night, blood splattered. Su Chen's pupils contracted, and the intense pain jolted him awake. He bit his tongue hard, and his left hand lashed out backward in an instant. His thumb vibrated violently, unleashing an external technique that was devastating.
boom!
A figure flew backward, but Su Chen was already swaying precariously. He struggled to open his eyes and saw torrential rain. Three figures stood in the shadows, one of whom had his shoulder shattered by Su Chen and was staring at him with a face full of resentment.
"His external strength is impressive, and he has actually grasped the essence of his technique. What terrifying power! We underestimated him." Another member of the Xuanjing Society looked at Su Chen's fingers with a cold gaze and lingering fear. He was both greedy and wary.
"hateful……"
Su Chen gritted his teeth, staggered, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The Xuanjing Society's reinforcements have arrived.
In the end, he was all alone...
The rain poured down harder and harder, and the boy stood alone in the rain, his blood mixed with the rainwater, looking utterly pitiful.
At this moment, Su Chen felt his vision becoming increasingly blurry.
He clenched his teeth, his heart pounding heavily in the rain, his blood rushing as if propelled by something.
"?" The three members of Xuanjing Society had a slight change in expression.
A faint green light suddenly appeared around Su Chen's abdomen. The light seemed to grow stronger with each heartbeat, and then suddenly burst forth. Strands of shimmering green spread along the wound, and the pierced area in his chest began to tighten rapidly. The torn flesh was forcibly sewn back together as if blown by a spring breeze.
The three members of the Xuanjing Society changed their expressions at the same time.
"Possessing both external appearance and internal details?"
"What kind of monster is this?"
Those who had been severely injured by Su Chen's previous attack showed a look of horror. Considering both their appearance and inner appearance, this kind of monster was one in a million. Especially now, seeing the knife wound on the young man's body healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, their expressions changed drastically. They looked at each other, their gazes all solemn. After thinking hard, the leader said.
"withdraw."
Whoosh!
Upon witnessing the changes in Su Chen, the three of them ran away without a second thought.
After the footsteps disappeared, Su Chen's last breath dissipated, and he collapsed to the ground. The bleeding from his chest wound had stopped, and his abdomen was no longer splitting open, but exhaustion pressed down on him like a tide, making it difficult for him to even lift his hand.
His body underwent inexplicable changes; his wounds healed, even the one pierced by the long sword was completely healed, which he found unbelievable. The three members of the Xuanjing Society didn't even look at him and left directly.
On the ground, the Xuanjing Society members were filled with fear.
"Interior...Interior view..."
"Is the change in my body called the Inner Landscape? Remember that, now it's time for you to die."
boom!
Su Chen exerted force with his left hand, completely killing the Xuanjing Society member. He immediately deflated like a punctured balloon. He had almost died just now, and fear enveloped him like cold water. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
He was just a young man not yet twenty years old. His eyes flickered, and darkness seemed to want to devour him. He must be careful in the future. Stepping into the extraordinary path was destined to be a lonely and terrifying one.
Su Chen took out his phone and glanced at the time.
It's exactly eight o'clock.
broken.
My brother said he had to see someone before 8:30.
Once he recovered, Su Chen remembered that he could help his older brother with the money, and he couldn't help but get excited. He suggested burying the bodies of the Xuanjing Society members nearby as a marker, so that someone would come to collect them later.
He looked down at his blood-covered body, gave a bitter laugh, and could only lean against the wall to stand up. He first sent the coordinates to his superior, then dragged his numb left hand over the construction site fence.
In the nearest public restroom, Su Chen stuffed his tattered coat into a garbage bag, turned on the tap, and scrubbed the back of his hands and between his fingers repeatedly. The cold water splashed onto the wound on his left hand, and the green light flashed slightly again, making him gasp in pain.
"My wounds have mostly healed. What exactly happened inside my body...? But the wound on my left hand hasn't healed yet. Oh well, I'll just say I cut myself by accident."
The person in the mirror was deathly pale, with bloodshot eyes that hadn't been suppressed; he didn't look like a college student who had just finished class at all.
Su Chen stared at himself for two seconds, then wiped his face.
8:29
Su Chen stood at the door of Su Ye's house, his hair still a little wet. He had changed into a cheap black jacket he bought from a convenience store. His wound had stopped bleeding, but his face was still extremely pale.
He breathed a sigh of relief and raised his hand to knock on the door.
crunch.
The door suddenly opened.
A hand reached out, grabbed his collar, and pulled him inside.
boom.
The door closed behind me.
Su Chen looked up and saw Su Ye standing in the entryway, his gaze scrutinizing Su Chen, sweeping from his hair to the soles of his shoes, and then settling on his pale face.
The room was quiet.
The silence made Su Chen's back tense.
He gave an awkward laugh.
"Dude, I've been so busy lately."
