Chapter 141: Chasing Across Regions

Pan Yue furiously ran. His arrogance was gone, replaced with fear and panic.

There was a strange scent on his body, and no matter what he tried, he could not get rid of it.

Su Chen had stolen his jade tablet, so he couldn’t escape from the exam grounds either. The scent coming from his body also implied that either Su Chen or Kong Zhen, whoever it was, could instantly find him. They could do whatever they wanted to him!

Those two damned bastards!

Pan Yue was about to go crazy.

He screamed wildly to himself as he continued running, but he was burdened by his injured legs, preventing him from building up any speed.

Pan Yue hobbled his way through the barren plateau. His only hope was that Su Chen and Kong Zhen would battle a while longer, giving him the opportunity to escape.

However, before long, Pan Yue felt something behind him.

A familiar silhouette appeared in the distance.

Su Chen!

Even if the opponent was wearing a mask, Pan Yue still recognized him.

He was scared witless, putting everything he had into running away.

Su Chen pursued him, traveling neither fast nor slow.

The remaining poison in his body had yet to completely dissipate, and he was temporarily unable to increase his speed. Not that it mattered much. If he continued to chase Pan Yue at this pace, he would definitely catch up to him.

The moon was bright that night, allowing him to see Pan Yue’s silhouette clearly in the darkness. Su Chen could even tell the sorry state Pan Yue was in.

He chased after Pan Yue with large strides.

He could let Kong Zhen go, but he could not say the same for Pan Yue.

Pan Yue had to die!

No matter how much Pan Yue tried to increase his speed, the distance between him and Su Chen continued to decrease.

Pan Yue was in shock. Finally, he loudly yelled, “Save me! Save me! Someone’s trying to kill me!”

After these words rang out, three black shadows jumped out of the forest.

Pan Yue yelled loudly, “I am a disciple of the Pan Clan of Pinewood City. The person behind me is trying to kill me! He already took my jade tablet, I have no points to give to you. Help me, if I survive today, I’ll give you guys anything you want!”

The three glanced at Pan Yue. Upon confirming that no fluctuations from the jade tablet could be found on him, they leapt past him, heading straight for Su Chen.

Su Chen raised his voice. “This person has already killed ten or so exam candidates.”

“No, it’s him, he’s the one killing people!” Pan Yue yelled maniacally.

The three people gazed at each other, momentarily indecisive, before they leapt toward Su Chen. It seemed as if they had chosen to believe Pan Yue.

Or perhaps they were only focused on taking his points.

Dammit!

Su Chen charged forwards at high speed as the three of them approached him.

“Get the hell out of my way!” A firebird shot out of Su Chen’s hand, slamming into the barrier of one of the students and sending him crashing into the ground. The other two attacked him from the left and right, and Su Chen stabbed out repeatedly with his short blade. Sharp, azure blade streaks shot toward the two opponents.

The other two exam candidates were not simple either, counter attacking his every move. Su Chen did not want for this fight to last, so he tossed out two wine jugs, sending the two of them flying.

After taking away their points, he continued his chase.

Pan Yue charged into the forest as he squealed at the top of his lungs, “Someone’s trying to kill me, he’s trying to kill me!”

Pan Yue’s loud voice attracted the attention of two more exam candidates. Both of them made a beeline for Su Chen.

Su Chen was infuriated. “Get the hell out of my way!”

He raised his hands sending two firebirds at the exam candidates blocking his path. They took the brunt force of the explosion and were knocked out instantly.

Su Chen took their points too, then continued his chase.

A person could exhibit frightening strength in the face of death; Pan Yue was no exception.

His legs were wounded, but somehow, they didn’t seem to slow him down. In addition, since he had found a successful strategy, he kept running in a direction where many people were gathered. As he neared them, he would yell something along the lines of, “I have no points, the person behind me has all my points”, or “There’s a crazed killer behind me.” In any case, he was willing to say whatever was needed for survival, including lies.

One exam candidate after another was attracted by Pan Yue, and they all tried to block Su Chen.

Su Chen lacked the energy to explain himself. He hardened his heart, then charged forwards.
