Chapter 420 Their Decision – Part Two (2/2)
”I hate variable.”
Pu Jing soul grabbed Zhuge Liang's neck, ”Press it, or die here.”
Zhuge Liang spat at Pu Jing's face, ”Kill me. I won't work for you, ever!”
”…”
Pu Jing snorted. He exerted his forces, commanding the soul to choke Zhuge Liang.
*SWUA*
The soul of Pu Jing suddenly had a wound on his chest. His real body also suffered from the same injury.
'What!?'
Pu Jing's conscience focused on the second soul, [Patience], which was pursuing Gan Ning. Because of the distraction by Zhuge Liang, Pu Jing did not pay attention to the automatic-moving soul.
Before [Patience], a bald man cut him with a long sword.
It was Zhou Cang, who had reinforced his body and weapon with his wing power.
”As his majesty said, only immortals can kill immortals and ghosts. I don't know who you are, but you came to the wrong house, fool!”
Using what he had learned from Tong and Medusa, Zhou Cang activated his overclock mode and chased after the injured soul. Although he was not aware that this person was Pu Jing, he wanted to kill it since it was a threat.
Pu Jing unsummoned the soul to save his life.
Meanwhile, Gan Ning was saved by Zhou Cang when he was running away from the ghost. He looked at Zhou Cang and Pu Jing with a horrified expression.
'What the hell are these people!? Well, lucky me.'
Gan Ning ran back toward Zhuge Liang's courtyard as he had unfinished business.
'I need that boy dead.'
.
.
Sima Hui looked at the disappearing Zhou Cang and Gan Ning in horror.
He and Zhou Cang returned here because he forgot a treasure trove that he buried behind his courtyard. Because they were heavy, Sima Hui asked Wei You to give him a hand.
Wei You sent Zhou Cang with Sima Hui as he was the strongest among all bodyguards.
However, when they arrived at the village, they saw Gan Ning running away from a ghost. Then, the desperate voice of an elder caught their attention.
Zhou Cang jumped in to help Gan Ning by instinct. With his surprise attack, he managed to wound the ghost with his sword.
Now, all of them ran back toward the mountain, heading to Zhuge Liang's courtyard.
'Please be alright, Kongming!'
.
.
Zhou Cang reached Zhuge Liang's resident and found corpses of elders and a trail of blood. The trace led to the road, leading to Xiapi City.
He broke into Zhuge Liang's house to check if there were survivors. Inside, five young female servants were hugging each other in fear.
”What happened outside!?”
”A-A ghost appeared and killed everyone!”
Zhou Cang's mood was ruined. A ghost that could kill could only be one thing, a spirit of an angel or a demon.
An immortal was here!
He left the house and decided to follow the blood trail.
When he got outside, Gan Ning appeared. From the looks of his eyes, he wanted to loot the house.
”Get lost, homeless thief. I don't have time to play with you.”
Gan Ning was anger, ”I only want some souvenirs. I don't mind taking used women.”
Thinking of the cowering women in the house, Zhou Cang activated his overclock mode and attack Gan Ning with a sword slash.
”Shit!”
Gan Ning dodged the slash in a panic. His opponent's speed was too fast.
After he leaped backward, the pirate raised his hands to surrender.
”Don't attack! I was kidding. I won't harm anyone!”
Zhou Cang roared, ”Get lost, motherfucker! I have a shitty mood right now!”
”Oh, cool. I'm in a shitty mood, too. Now that I've failed my mission …”
Gan Ning kicked the ground, throwing dirt to the eyes of Zhou Cang with his foot.
”Die!”
Gan Ning switched his weapon to bow and arrow within a second.
An arrow was fired!
*POEK*
A transparent third arm appeared from Zhou Cang's left shoulder and caught the arrow.
Gan Ning had a chill running down his spine. He had killed many good fighters, but this was his first time fighting someone with supernatural power.
”I can't leave you alive, or those women will experience hell. Die!”
Zhou Cang summoned his virtue spirit and attacked Gan Ning together, turning the situation into 2-on-1.
The spirit threw a punch at Gan Ning.
As long as it hit, the punch would crush Gan Ning's flesh and bone like tofu.
Gan Ning sensed dread in the punch. He rolled and ran away.
Zhou Cang's real body already caught up to Gan Ling. He slashed down with his long sword.
Gan Ning took out short knives and parried it.
*BOOM*
The feedback force stunned Gan Ning's arms.
The fledging Gan Ning was no match against the Zhou Can, who experienced two worlds. Furthermore, Tong trained Zhou Cang with a peculiar training style.
Zhou Cang's daily training routine was 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and 10km running.
It had been years that he had this routine added into his lifestyle. Although he could not produce the same result as Saitama, Zhou Cang was confident in his destructive power.
Zhou Cang's left leg kicked Gan Ning's body midsection.
It hit Gan Ning's rib cages and shook his liver.
”Gah!”
The pirate fell onto his knee as the excruciating pain stunned him again.
Before Zhou Cang could deliver a finishing blow, Gan Ning begged.
”Spare me! I give up. I surrender!”
The bald man frown. He did not have a luxurious time to babysit this pirate as a captive.
”Sir Zhou, what happened here!?”
Sima Hui arrived and found the horrifying scene of corpses.
”An immortal killed them, and he probably took the Zhuge boy away. Do me a favor. Tie this man and call my men. They will take it from here.”
Zhou Cang kicked Gan Ning's solar plexus, which knocked him unconscious. He turned around to chase after Pu Jing, who left a bloody trail on the ground.
