118: Zhang Yong's disbelief
"How is this possible? Even with a heavenly treasure, with his injuries from yesterday, even if he took it, he would have died from being unable to withstand the treasure's energy. How could his injuries recover and his Supernatural Ability level even increase? This is impossible, absolutely impossible!" Zhang Yong's heart screamed in shock, but his offensive did not stop.
Zhang Yong quickly flew backward, creating distance from Huang Yichen. Then, he threw out countless small lotuses with both hands. These lotuses were extremely tough, their petals spinning like drill bits as they attacked Huang Yichen.
Huang Yichen was not only back to full health now, but his power had greatly increased, and with the Magic Blade in hand, he directly ignored these small lotuses. Wielding the Magic Blade, he charged at Zhang Yong. When any lotus got close to Huang Yichen, it was directly sliced into fragments by the Magic Blade, dancing and swaying in the air until they drifted to the ground.
Seeing that these attacks were ineffective, Zhang Yong extended both hands and circulated all the energy in his body, condensing a giant lotus in front of him. The giant lotus hovered in the air, blocking Zhang Yong's front and spinning rapidly. The massive suction caused the nearest person, Huang Yichen, to be sucked right in. Wei He and the American Soldier on the ground were also swept into the air, along with surrounding rubble, bricks, and civilians.
"Ah, help! I don't want to die!"
"What's going on? Why am I flying into the sky?"
"What's happening? Has the Demon Race attacked? Has the Great Demon King personally made a move?"
...
The civilians cried out as they spun in the air.
Although Wei He was already a Control Level Ability User, he still didn't have the ability to fly. He could only use Golden Body Protection, turning his entire body into golden metal.
Just as Wei He was about to touch the giant lotus, it suddenly shattered with a bang. Huang Yichen jumped out from within the lotus; he held the Magic Blade, hacking and slashing left and right inside the giant lotus, finally blowing it up. The giant lotus's hard petals were completely useless against the Magic Blade; instead, they were easily sliced open by it. Whether it was petals or stamens, everything was shredded.
Although the giant lotus couldn't damage the Magic Blade, it did injure Huang Yichen. Fortunately, Huang Yichen was now a Zhentian Level Earth Element Ability User, so he wasn't ground into mincemeat by the giant lotus. When Huang Yichen emerged from the giant lotus, he was covered in blood, with dozens of wounds.
The others who had been swept up by the giant lotus, no longer affected by the suction, drifted down to the ground due to inertia, screaming as they fell. Wei He was also thrown into a building; he crashed through the roof tiles and fell heavily to the floor. With his Golden Body Protection, he wasn't seriously injured, and with the red alert three-star self-healing function, he recovered his health instantly.
When he stood up, he saw a naked man and woman on the bed next to him, looking at Wei He with faces full of terror.
"Oh, sorry! My apologies! Please continue! Please continue! I didn't see anything!" Before the two could speak, Wei He awkwardly crashed through the wall, jumped down from the building, and fled the scene.
"Did you see that? That person was actually gold!"
"Yeah, he really seemed to be made of gold. He must be worth quite a bit of money!" The two of them talked to each other in a daze, looking at the roof Wei He had smashed through and the wall he had broken.
In the sky above the Stone Bridge Inn, Zhang Yong looked at the injured Huang Yichen and clicked his tongue in disdain. Looking at him with slanted eyes, he said, "You're injured like this, and you still want to keep fighting? Are you really not afraid of death?"
"Heh heh, you look like your injuries are even more serious than before, hahaha!" Huang Yichen laughed loudly.
Because Zhang Yong had just used his Supernatural Ability energy, a large amount of blood seeped out of his wounds again, and the nuclear radiation was still ravaging his injuries. He was indeed even weaker now than before.
"Hmph, die!" Zhang Yong shouted and threw out many small lotuses again. While Huang Yichen was waving his Magic Blade to clear these lotuses, Zhang Yong flew away at high speed, muttering to himself, "A gentleman's revenge is never too late even after ten years. I'll be back sooner or later. Wei He, you just wait; I will definitely complete this mission of yours!"
Just as he was about to cross the city wall of Kongdi City, a laser beam shot him down. Following behind him was Linlin, who was completely unharmed and hadn't made a move until now.
"Trying to run? It's not that easy. Speak, who wants to kill Wei He?" Linlin slowly landed on the ground. As her cherry-like mouth opened and closed, Zhang Yong actually felt a slight sense of comfort amidst his severe pain.
"Don't waste your efforts. We've all undergone special training. Even if you beat me to death, I won't talk!" Zhang Yong stared intensely at Linlin and said decisively.
"Is that so? I hope you can still say that in a while! Hehehehe!" Huang Yichen suddenly popped up from the ground beside Zhang Yong, smiling wickedly.
Unwilling to be captured, Zhang Yong fought with the charging Huang Yichen. Unfortunately, being heavily injured, he was no match for Huang Yichen. However, Huang Yichen had already received orders from Wei He not to kill Zhang Yong. So, during the fight, he used the Magic Blade to leave dozens of wounds on his body—all superficial skin wounds that didn't hit bone or muscle. However, the Magic Blade carried nuclear radiation, and these wounds were all contaminated with it. Soon, Zhang Yong would find life worse than death.
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Huang Yichen turned and fled the battlefield, maintaining a certain distance from Zhang Yong and quietly staring at him.
"Hahaha, what's wrong, scared? Why stop fighting? Come on!" Zhang Yong didn't know what Huang Yichen was up to and spoke tentatively.
"Hmph, I'm tired. Let's wait a bit!" Huang Yichen casually made up an excuse, while his wounds were currently healing at an extremely fast speed.
"Hmph, if you're not fighting, then I'm leaving. See you if fate allows!" Zhang Yong's eyes darted around as he said this, then he flew into the distance. Seeing this, Linlin didn't stop him. Just as he thought he had escaped danger, he saw Huang Yichen following behind him.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave. Don't you know the wound on your chest was also caused by this blade? Now, this blade has cut dozens more wounds all over your body. Before long, your whole body will be in the same state as your chest wound. You will slowly die a very ugly death!" Huang Yichen always kept a certain distance from Zhang Yong, neither being shaken off nor getting too close.
Constantly tortured by nuclear radiation and adding the new injuries, Zhang Yong finally couldn't hold on anymore and returned to the ground. He looked around; this was actually the place where he had first attacked Wei He.
Huang Yichen also landed on the ground and slowly walked up to Zhang Yong, saying softly, "Look at me, do you see any changes? As long as you are willing to surrender to the Commander, you will become like me. Your wounds won't be a problem either; only the Commander can save you from these injuries!"
Prompted by Huang Yichen, Zhang Yong looked closely at him. Suddenly, his pupils constricted sharply, and he said in shock, "You... you... your wounds from just now are gone! In such a short time, your injuries have fully recovered. How is this possible? Ah!"
