Chapter 63 - 62: Escape and Strength Growth
The two’s chase lasted nearly a kilometer.
During this time,
One steel bar after another was thrown at Guo Yang.
The clanging sounds were continuous.
The surrounding residents occasionally peeked out to check on the situation, but could only see two black lines flashing by.
The more they chased, the more astonished Guo Yang was as he looked at Chen Sheng, who always maintained a distance from him.
Along the way,
Chen Sheng’s speed increased a bit each time he threw a steel bar.
Until now, the difference between them seemed almost negligible.
What a joke?!
An An Jin and a Transforming Power had similar speeds?!
This was beyond Guo Yang’s comprehension.
After nearly a kilometer,
the two gradually left the quiet Wutong Village and were about to reach the Wutong Intersection.
Whistles and noisy sounds gradually rose.
Guo Yang stopped.
Chasing like this, even if he caught up with Chen Sheng, it would only cause more commotion.
He just stood there, watching Chen Sheng’s gradually shrinking back, with a cold glint in his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
Several kilometers later,
Chen Sheng, who stopped, looked somewhat pale.
He raised his right hand, only to see his forearm grotesquely bent.
Just looking at it could not help but make one’s scalp tingle.
Chen Sheng looked at his twisted arm, and with his other hand, grabbed it.
There was a cracking sound!
The arm was forcibly twisted back to its normal angle.
His forehead bulged with green veins and the constant cold sweat seemed to be telling how much pain Chen Sheng was enduring at this moment.
And this was just the effect of Guo Yang’s punch.
However, there was no trace of fear in Chen Sheng’s heart. He only felt more and more irritated.
“Annoying, every single one of them…” “I just want to practice quietly, why won’t you let me?”
“Why do you have to… seek death!” Chen Sheng’s tone gradually became colder.
After killing Li Qian,
Chen Sheng’s state of mind had undergone earth-shattering changes without him realizing it.
In the past, facing such situations, he only thought about avoiding their sharp edges.
But now, what he was thinking in his mind was not how powerful Guo Yang was, but how long it would take for him to kill the opponent.
And Chen Sheng’s estimate was…
Two days.
Based on his current rate of progress,
it would only take two days to kill Guo Yang, whose attributes were nearly twice his own.
Thinking of this,
Chen Sheng looked towards the direction of Wutong Village.
“Two days…”
He murmured to himself.
Afterwards,
Chen Sheng retracted his gaze and walked towards the Port District.
One hour later.
Inside Yinghui Grocery Store, There was a crash sound.
The glass door was flung open.
“Yo, yo, yo, our acting leader is here?”
“The room is ready, you go and put your stuff first, then come back quickly to
eat. ”
Zhou Li walked out from the backyard with a cheerful tone, about to greet Chen Sheng, but suddenly stopped.
“What’s going on?”
Zhou Li quickly stepped forward, looking at Chen Sheng’s swollen arm with wonder.
“Kid, getting beaten up like this is a bit disgraceful for our Eagle Body Sect.”
As he spoke,
Zhou Li mischievously poked Chen Sheng’s arm, causing him to gasp in pain.
“You f*cking don’t push me to hit an old man!”
Chen Sheng gritted his teeth, clenching his fists tightly.
“There are only two of us in the Eagle Body Sect, I don’t think it’s disgraceful, if you want to lose face, go ahead and lose it yourself.”
He’ll kill Guo Yang in two days.
Then there won’t be any disgrace.
That’s what he thought.
“Alright, alright, your room is in the right-hand side of the backyard, put your things there then come back quickly to eat.”
With that,
Zhou Li hurried to the kitchen.
Chen Sheng also walked through the small door in the depths of the grocery store and arrived at the backyard.
There were two rooms in the backyard, one for Zhou Li and one for Chen Sheng.
In the middle was a not-so-small open space.
There were various training equipment made by Zhou Li.
Though he had given up training after being diagnosed with cancer.
But he still wiped it clean every day, so it looked very clean.
With a creak.
Chen Sheng pushed open his wooden house.
The room was antique, with various wooden carvings and furniture.
Chen Sheng tidied up briefly, put away his important belongings, and returned to the grocery store.
Ten minutes later.
He sat with Zhou Li at the kitchen table, both with heavy expressions, and no one said a word.
“What’s this?”
Chen Sheng pointed to a plate of black stuff and asked solemnly.
“Tomato scrambled eggs.”
“What about this?”
He pointed to another stack of green paste.
“Broccoli stir-fried with meat.”
As for the pan in the middle, bubbling and looking like poison, Chen Sheng didn’t even want to ask.
With a snap.
He put down his chopsticks and sighed deeply.
“How did you live to this age?” “In the past, my wife cooked. After my wife’s death, I didn’t cook.”
“What do you eat normally?”
“Takeout.”
“Then order takeout for me! Don’t show off your cooking!” “Give me back my meal money!”
Chen Sheng stretched his hand out in front of Zhou Li.
Zhou Li pretended not to hear.
He looked at Chen Sheng’s arm in astonishment.
“Huh, how did your arm’s swelling go down so quickly?”
Over time, the physical attribute improvement brought on a healing effect, which had already reduced Chen Sheng’s arm swelling significantly.
It was estimated that in another hour or two, he would be fully recovered.
“Give me back my meal money!” Chen Sheng didn’t fall for it.
Seeing this,
Zhou Li shook his head and sighed,
So he went into the store and started dialing for takeout.
“Hello, Old Zhang.”
“Cook some dishes for me and deliver them to my store.”
“A junior is visiting and staying for a few days, so I’d like to make it a bit more lavish.”
Zhou Li called for takeout from a place at the entrance of the alley.
In less than twenty minutes, the food was delivered.
Looking at the delicious dishes on the table, Chen Sheng couldn’t help but nod in appreciation.
Now this was food fit for human consumption.
Nighttime.
Zhou Li closed the store early.
An hour later,
Chen Sheng, with his arm fully recovered, went to the backyard to do some exercise.
Before leaving in the morning, he had finished drinking the Vitality Soup in the afternoon.
With Chen Sheng’s current body, it wasn’t enough to keep him training in the Three-Body Technique all day.
Even so, his current improvement rate was staggering.
Zhou Li just stood aside and watched Chen Sheng squatting with a stone ball weighing two hundred pounds, his eyes filled with envy.
If he were a Qi-sensor, perhaps he wouldn’t have to die, perhaps he could make the Eagle Body Sect great.
“Old man, won’t you try some treatment?”
It seemed to sense Zhou Li’s gaze, Chen Sheng asked while exercising.
“I don’t want to.”
“I’ve tried it a few times before, and it made me miserable.”
“I’d rather enjoy my last days.”
Chen Sheng did not try to persuade him any further.
One trained and the other watched.
Time passed slowly like this.
Two hours later.
After finishing his training, Chen Sheng looked at the panel.
[Chen Sheng]
[Strength: 4-56] [Agility: 4-73]
[Physical Attribute: 4.86]
[Skill Points: 3-33]
Constitution increased by 0.49
Agility increased by 0.32
Strength increased by 0.43
Training for an entire day, with the help of the Perfection level Three-Body Technique, Chen Sheng’s three attributes had almost increased by almost one point each.
The growth rate exceeded his previous levels.
He tried to perform the Xingyi Five Elements Fist.
His fists sliced through the air one after another.
There wasn’t much noise.
However, Chen Sheng could clearly feel the immense power filling every corner of his body in each movement.
The An Jin strength he unleashed was far stronger than yesterday.
With his current level, if he faced Li Qian again, a single punch with the An Jin unleashed would be enough to crush her heart.
Chen Sheng had a vague feeling.
Maybe tomorrow, tomorrow, he could break through to the Transforming Power level..
