Chapter 363 - 356 Gathering Heart Nail
In the dense forest.
The corpulent Shang Huan, as light on his feet as if they were fitted with springs, lightly tapped the ground and suddenly shot forward.
He resembled a colossal yet agile ball bouncing throughout the forest, darting through the complex terrain, advancing rapidly.
The next moment, his complexion underwent a sudden change, and his rotund figure shifted abruptly half a meter to the left without any warning.
Whoosh!
A jet-black stream of light grazed his right arm as it flew past.
The wind it carried, sharp as a blade, easily tore through his sleeve.
A pale blue stream of light descended from the sky, crashing right in front of Shang Huan. The blast of air rolled, lifting bits of leaves.
Zhao Shaoyuan looked at Shang Huan with surprise, "You actually dodged the Earth Core Ghost Iron Gathering Heart Nail?"
Shang Huan’s eyes widened, and his heart suddenly sank to the pits.
Damn it!
Before he could get a clear view of the newcomer, a black light pierced through his chest.
But in the next moment, the Shang Huan with the pierced chest dissipated into nothingness. He appeared two meters away, gasping for breath.
"Eh?"
"You’ve practiced the Divine Travel Technique? No wonder you ran the farthest," Zhao Shaoyuan realized.
He casually raised his hand, the black light swirling, a jet-black spike as long as a palm and thick as a carrot emerged in his palm.
"Wait! Wait!" Shang Huan shouted in panic, "Whatever you want, I’ll give it to you. Whatever you want to know, I’ll tell you!"
Zhao Shaoyuan raised an eyebrow, "Really?"
"Truly, truly, truly!" Shang Huan nodded as if pounding garlic.
"I don’t want to listen!" Zhao Shaoyuan said coldly.
The black light in the air vanished in a flash.
Shang Huan’s figure shattered once more, reappearing two meters to the right, his face deathly pale.
With a look of disdain, Zhao Shaoyuan said, "Your six companions are all tough nuggets, beaten half to death but not uttering a word. You think you’d tell the truth?"
He then assumed an I-have-already-seen-through-your-lies expression, "You’re trying to confuse me with false information, huh? Ha!"
Shang Huan: "..."
I’m genuinely trying to surrender!
Whoosh!
A low whooshing sound accompanied the black light quickly enlarging before Shang Huan’s eyes.
F*ck!
With your IQ, how the hell did you become the vice director of the Inspection Courtyard?
"You can’t touch me!" Shang Huan yelled at the top of his lungs while rapidly dodging, "I’m telling you, I have a backer! If you lay a hand on me, you’re done too!"
"A backer?" Zhao Shaoyuan appeared indifferent, "Ha! I don’t believe it!"
Wooo wooo wooo...
Would you f*cking listen first before you act!
Maybe we’re on the same side!
Shang Huan cursed bitterly in his heart, his neck flushed red.
But a moment of distraction caused him to step on a pile of broken leaves, feeling a slight slipperiness underfoot, and his complexion changed drastically.
Damn!
Before he could adjust his stance, the Gathering Heart Nail had already appeared in front of his chest.
Instinctively, he closed his eyes.
His mind was filled with regret.
I should never have taken this deal.
So much White Jade not yet enjoyed, not to mention the earnings, now my life is at stake too!
Bang!
The next moment, the blue light burst!
Chen Mu’s vision blurred, his heart skipped a half beat from the fright!
Qi Forbidden Hundred Miles, Spiritual Light Armor, and a flurry of other abilities were all activated in desperation.
As his muscles tensed all over his body, bracing for the impact.
He saw Zhao Shaoyuan across from him, whose fierce momentum turned into a skyrocketing monkey, soaring into the sky enveloped in the obscure blue flame. In the blink of an eye, he became a small blue dot in the sky.
Chen Mu: "..."
"He... he ran away?!" Shang Huan stood there, dumbfounded.
Under the mask, Chen Mu was at a loss for words.
I didn’t see that coming...
All those fierce words just now, were you just performing for me?!
I thought it was some sort of powerful move, but it turned out to be just a skyrocketing monkey?
Chen Mu couldn’t help but clench his teeth, your Gathering Heart Nail actually is quite something!

...
Ten miles away in the sky.
Zhao Shaoyuan, shrouded in obscure blue flames, was pale as paper, rapidly depleting his Mana, but dared not stop for a moment.
The Gathering Heart Nail was his biggest reliance.
Yet he was utterly powerless against his opponent.
He would be foolish to stay and grapple to death.
"That guy must be connected to those seven smugglers. As long as I report this to Elder Hu, we can track down the masked man," Zhao Shaoyuan thought to himself, elated.
This was a significant achievement!
Then he looked ahead to see the tip of the Gathering Heart Nail that was breaking through the air, carrying him at high speed; it had cracked without him noticing when.
It pained Zhao Shaoyuan to the core.
"How could that Jet-black Moon Blade be so sharp? Just a few clashes and my Gathering Heart Nail..."
"I must make the Sun Family compensate for this loss, double!"
"And that masked man!"
"You wait for me. When I get back to the mountain and find Elder Hu, when I catch your true form, I’ll see how I deal with you!"
As he was lost in his fantasies, a faint sound of ghostly wailing and wolf howling suddenly reached his ears.
Zhao Shaoyuan hurriedly looked back but saw no figure.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a strange whining noise suddenly intensified from above.
He quickly looked up.
And saw a four-and-a-half-meter-tall giant breaking through the clouds, coming into view.
The giant had indigo skin, muscles like coiling dragons, and a pair of blood-red eyes that looked like a fiend’s!
He held a three-meter-long crescent black blade high between his hands.
Amidst billowing black smoke, like a meteor from outer space, it crashed down right in front of him.
Zhao Shaoyuan just managed to pull back the Gathering Heart Nail in front of his face.
Whoosh!
A flash of black light.
The Gathering Heart Nail was instantly cleaved in two.
Zhao Shaoyuan’s eyes widened in disbelief.
Thud!
He was instantly split into two halves.
Blood splattered, but before it could disperse, it was enveloped and devoured by a mass of black smoke in the blink of an eye.
Chen Mu’s figure rapidly shrank, activated the Great Escape Technique at full power, with a whining wail, he slashed through the white clouds in the sky and instantly rushed into the dense forest of East Ridge and disappeared.
