Chapter 416: Against the Monkey King (2/2)

This time, at least the monkey statue didn't understand what he was really doing and waited. Unlike Sam who held his hand directly in its place not letting him attack at all.

The fight was almost over after that attack. The statue became extremely weak and Arman started squeezing his energy reservoir dry.

The battle is bloody at least, Arman is soaked in blood while the statue was filled with cracks.

Slowly, Arman was able to grab the victory and the wine landed in her hands. The 'man' from the herb garden is speechless. She didn't think that her platform was the first one to be targeted.

Sam nodded at Arman's performance and climbed up on the next platform. He took out another staff and spiritual energy roared around him.

The same scenario almost repeated. Except for this time, as soon as Sam broke the statue's staff and stabbed the piece of staff inside, he felt a piercing pain in the left abdomen.

The statue also stabbed him back.

But Sam didn't let go. He just went through with offense, completely ignoring the pain he is feeling.

After the fight is over, he took down the reward and stored it in his storage.

He came down and leaned his back against the nearby tree.

He lifted his shirt up to see what the damage is like. There is something wrong with the wound. He could feel that the staff didn't just pass through him. It was stabbed diagonally upwards and it hit the rib.

Both the rib and the staff broke. The stone fragments of the staff were stuck inside and some of them even pierced his lungs.

He took off his shirt completely. When the candidates saw the scars on his body, they felt chills all over.

Sam's body looks perfectly sculpted, any warrior will have a great body like that of course, all of their bodies are not aesthetically pleasing, but Sam's bone structure makes him look great.

But those scars are like the art of a crazy person who wanted to ruin the look of the body and failed. All that gave him is the scarily handsome look. The men are jealous except for one 'man' though.

But when they thought of the battles that they have to go through to get what Sam got on his body, they abandoned the ideas.

The watched keenly on what Sam is doing.

To their surprise, he didn't hesitate before pulling the staff out like its nothing, his eyes are still cold and unfeeling. No one saw a hint of pain from it.

When they saw the staff's edge, then only they understood that the injury is more than what they thought.

Arkiv who got acquainted with Sam previously stepped forward to see if he can help. But as he neared Sam, he got a dangerous feeling creeping down his spine. He felt that if he took one more step, he would be dead.

At this moment, Sam is emitting the killing intent and if they really did come here, he might kill them.

He is pissed off because he was injured this badly.

After all, if not for the fact that he had to maintain the disguise, he wouldn't have to worry about using all the attacks in his arsenal. He is confident that he could defeat the statue without taking this bad of an injury.

He is pissed at the major powers. If the major powers stopped being nosy and minded their own businesses, he would have come into the Palace of inheritances without a care in the world.

But now, he has to disguise so that the war wouldn't start prematurely. If the Beast faction is implicated because of him, he would have to intervene.

Sam shook his head to clear these thoughts off his mind.

He took out a dagger from his storage and started cutting the wound. He made a large incision. It would fit his whole palm without any problem.

He cut the flesh and placed his palm inside. When it brushed past the internal organs, he felt a soul-searing pain, but he made sure that he has as little contact as possible.

He reached the lowest part of the lung, where the shards of the stone staff are punctured in.

He delicately held one of the shards and plucked it out. He felt like the air was completely pumped out of his lungs forcefully.
