Chapter 1994: Chapter 1969: Flesh Lingzhi (Part 2)

"Little brother, if you don’t take action, your sister will get hurt. Can you bear to see your sister get hurt?" Liu Ruyan’s voice suddenly came, interrupting Chen Yang’s thoughts.

Returning to his senses, Chen Yang saw that Liu Ruyan was already at a disadvantage.

The fierce tiger somehow managed to breathe fire to scorch Liu Ruyan.

With the fire-breathing ability in play, Liu Ruyan’s speed advantage disappeared, and she quickly fell into a disadvantage.

"Add three hundred spirit stones."

Chen Yang remained unmoved and continued to demand his price.

Liu Ruyan gritted her teeth, full of hatred: "Little brother, are you really not going to step in? If I die, you won’t get the remaining hundred spirit stones."

"It’s okay, if something happens to you, my task is also considered incomplete, the hundred spirit stones can be regarded as compensation. I am very particular about my integrity." Chen Yang replied calmly once again.

These words nearly drove Liu Ruyan to rage.

What integrity? You’re raising the price right now.

Normally, she would definitely retort.

But given the dangerous situation, there was no time for retorts.

If Chen Yang didn’t act soon, she would be roasted, with several places on her clothes already burned by the fierce fire.

She didn’t want to pay more, but the situation left her with no choice.

"Fine, let’s get through this moment first, and we’ll settle accounts later."

Liu Ruyan murmured to herself and grit her teeth in agreement: "I agree to your terms, quick, act!"

From afar, Chen Yang heard this and slightly smiled: "Should have agreed earlier, why all the fuss?"

Saying that, Chen Yang directly drew out the Stone-Cutting Sword from his waist.

Against a fierce tiger-level spirit beast, one has to go all out from the beginning.

The opponent is two minor levels above him, any small gap could lead to serious consequences.

"Behold the sword."

Chen Yang charged forward with his sword.

The first slash of the Triple Slash Sword Technique!

The sword shimmered sharply, filled with intimidation.

The fierce tiger, eyeing the kill, suddenly felt a chill at its back, an intense sense of crisis looming.

It hurriedly exerted its fastest pace to leap aside.

Boom boom boom!!

The sword qi from the first slash hit a large rock, immediately shattering it into many pieces.

The leaping fierce tiger was shocked!

If it got hit, its body might have been split in half on the spot.

Liu Ruyan was equally astonished.

Powerful spirit gathering realm capabilities were expected, but her eyes caught a glimpse of Chen Yang’s ancient sword, realizing it was quite extraordinary.

The sharpness level was definitely beyond compare with ordinary swords.

No idea what material was used to forge it, sharp enough to reach this level.

Roar!!

"Despicable human, are you planning for two against one?" Though furious, the fierce tiger hadn’t lost its mind.

Knowing that facing both, it would be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, Chen Yang’s sharp blade might even threaten its life, a careless moment could result in its demise here.

Considering these factors, its eyes were filled with fear.

"Yan Hu, I don’t intend a relentless fight with you. This meat Lingzhi is heaven-born and earth-raised, survival of the fittest. If you retreat, we can be at peace." Liu Ruyan stood still, looking at the fierce tiger.

Yan Hu’s gaze sharpened, without immediately answering, scanning Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan closely.

Apparently contemplating, if it really fought, what chances it could have.

"Hmph, wishful thinking! The meat Lingzhi is mine!" After half a minute, the fierce tiger still decided to fight!

Unwilling to let others have the meat Lingzhi.

Roar!!

It roared explosively, leaping towards Liu Ruyan to attack.

Liu Ruyan hurriedly responded.

Chen Yang, having received payment, naturally couldn’t sit by idly.

He moved immediately, holding the Stone-Cutting Sword to fight the fierce tiger together.

The two humans and one beast clashed in front of the rocky cave, generating significant shockwaves, debris and soil flying everywhere.

Nearby boulders were shattered by the residual shock.

With Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan outnumbering Yan Hu, it was naturally not a match.

Although it somehow gained fire-breathing ability, facing two equally leveled opponents attacking together, it soon found itself in a tight spot.

In just a few minutes, it bore several bleeding spots.

Though not fatal, it demonstrated the lack of a winning chance, prolonging the fight would only worsen its condition.

Both sides retreated again, Yan Hu stood on a rock, panting heavily.

Its tiger eyes stared fiercely at Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan, filled with deep hatred.

Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan stood ten meters apart, calm and composed.

Against one, the exhaustion was almost negligible, having no real impact.

"Despicable humans, either stealing things or ganging up, truly a vile race."

Yan Hu, resentful at losing, resorted to verbal assaults.

Beginning to attack the duo with words.

Such remarks didn’t really bother Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan.

This is not cunning, but wisdom, a normal strategy.

If Yan Hu had helpers, it wouldn’t be saying this.

Speaking of enjoying ganging up, spirit beasts like them are the most skilled.

"If you don’t leave, you won’t be able to leave."

Liu Ruyan held three silver needles in her hand, glaring sharply at Yan Hu.

Chen Yang was calm in his demeanor, yet the Stone-Cutting Sword in his hand shimmered, revealing his stance.

Yan Hu started second-guessing.

If the fight continued, its life would indeed be at risk.

Having grown to this level, it certainly knew not to court death, unable to do such a thing.

"Consider yourselves ruthless, but this isn’t over, one day you’ll pay the price."

Yan Hu spat out a harsh threat, preparing to retreat.

Liu Ruyan, seeing this, didn’t pursue, watching Yan Hu leave.

With Liu Ruyan not chasing, Chen Yang naturally wouldn’t look for trouble, silently retracting the Stone-Cutting Sword.

"Let’s go quickly to prevent complications."

Seeing Yan Hu leave, Liu Ruyan wasted no time, immediately turning to leave quickly.

Chen Yang followed suit.

At this point, the day hadn’t broken, the sky still dark.

Speeding through the forest, within half an hour or so, they left the deep mountains and reached the outer region.

The forest here remained dense but much safer.

For in this area, there were no spirit beasts of the spirit gathering realm.

Mostly ordinary beasts, even spirit beasts are only at the qi cultivation realm, or profound strength realm.

Such beasts posed no threat to the two of them.

"Phew, finally got out."

Reaching a safe zone, Liu Ruyan breathed a sigh of relief, feeling relaxed.

Chen Yang, on the other hand, experienced no change in mood.

Seeing Liu Ruyan stopped, he didn’t speak much and immediately extended his palm.

"What’s the matter, little brother, what do you mean by that?"

Liu Ruyan couldn’t understand Chen Yang’s intention.

"I helped you with the task, now that we’re in a safe zone, shouldn’t you settle the payment?" Chen Yang directly asked.

Heh.

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan chuckled and said: "Little brother, you’re too anxious, your sister is true to her word, the spirit stones promised to you will not be short by half, just that I don’t have that much on me, I’ll make sure you get every piece once we’re out of the mountains."

Liu Ruyan’s beautiful eyes were resolute, with no hint of avoidance.

Seeing this, Chen Yang didn’t say much further.

Though cautious of the woman in front of him, he trusted her in terms of spirit stones.

It’s evident she is wealthy and won’t go back on her word.

Receiving her assurance, he refrained from further words.

The two took a brief rest, soon commencing their journey again.

After two hours of swift travel, finally at around seven in the morning, they exited the mountains, entering Liuhe Village greeted by the morning sun.

The morning in Liuhe Village was fairly lively, households were preparing breakfast, heading out for work.

The atmosphere was good.

Entering Liuhe Village, Chen Yang and Liu Ruyan headed straight to the medical clinic.

"Little brother, don’t worry, the spirit stones promised won’t be reduced by half a piece. I’ll have someone deliver them to you."

Liu Ruyan, not planning to stay longer, intended to leave with her vehicle after returning to the village.
