Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chen Mu looked at the hands of the remaining half of the energy chain, heart secretly awe-inspiring. The other side of the harsh and sophisticated is worth his learning. The ninth energy s.h.i.+eld is not actually an energy s.h.i.+eld, but an unstable energy body shaped like an energy s.h.i.+eld. It explodes violently when touched.
The tenth s.h.i.+eld is the real s.h.i.+eld! With the shockwave from the explosion, increasing their escape speed, this plan is extremely dangerous, such a risky gamble. It requires not only courage and determination, so is strength, how can Chen Mu not admire as in such a short time can think of this kind of plan.
Chen Mu fell fast, as soon as his legs touched the ground, he changed his energy card as fast as he could. Not until he had done this did he breathe a sigh of relief. He had been a spent bolt, and there was less than a hundred units left in his energy card. And the part that’s been eroded by the starfish energy, had become the most vulnerable part of the chain, first part that broke in the collision,
“Today’s battle is an epic one! Mr. Joe had wound the Dang Han, which will spread his name throughout the union! Rank rise in the near future, I must be the first one who say congratulation!” Zeng Yushan cross the crowd, smiling at Chen Mu for congratulations.
There were some restless people in the crowd, when they saw Zeng Yushan stood out, fear show up on their faces and then they quickly become quiet.
Chen mu shook his head: “brother Zeng had over rated me, I and the Dang Han can only count as a draw.” Then he said no more.
Zeng didn’t say anything more about who had won and glanced at the crowd. His next words seem to have some subt.i.tles, “there seem to be quite a few people interested in Mr. Joe, too”
“More people are interested in you” Chen mu looked calm, and his answer didn’t avoid anything.
He suddenly figured out a lot of unclear things, the arrival of these masters are mostly came after frost moon cold continent. It all started from of his encounter with the Constellation, all revealed traces lead to prove that someone was secretly targeting the frost moon cold continent, although he does not know exactly what the purpose behind all of this.
“Hehe,”Zeng chuckled and shrugged his shoulders, acted as if he is in an easy mood “it seems that we have something in common which should bring us closer.” His expression was casual but his attempt cannot be hide.
Chen mu felt stunned. How could he miss the meaning of zeng yu’s words? He was surprised that Zheng wanted to work with him. The big six has so many high rank masters, but even the Constellation couldn’t stand a chance to survival from the fighting with frost moon cold continent. Even if had help with all the newly joined masters, still don’t have enough power to even try.
But, Zeng unexpectedly threw olive branch to him. Are the frost moon and the cold continent understaffed? The moment this thought came up, Chen Mo felt it is absurd. But this seemingly absurd idea haunted his mind and just won’t leave.
Chen Mu kept a poker face but his mind never rest: “Qiao Yuan used to being alone, And I don’t want to fail your kindness. If you will excuse me, I have to leave now.”
Then he motioned for A’Sang to lead the way. Suddenly, A’ sang came to his senses and led the way. Their eyes toward Chen mu were full of respect, that’s expression only for the strong hero.
Saw Chen mu and A’sang’s leaving, Zeng back to his own thought. But when his eye glanced at A’Sang who walk next to Chen Mu, he was amazed by her beauty.
“How dare that ugly devil named Joe put on AIRS in front of us, let’s see how I’m going to kill him!” Li is the first to open fire. At first she was full with respect towards Chen Mu, now she is angry enough to jump up, changing face even faster than turning the book.
Other students are also in upset mood, usually, any one of them can claim the best as they are the chosen one? This time they were defeated in front so many people, how could they ever regain their honor? Such thoughts is killing them inside.
“Shame to have such the beauty around him! I didn’t expect Zaghan can get close to this rare beauty! “One male cadet spoke with deep jealousy.
But there was nothing they can do to get rid of this upset, they had to hold down their anger, surrounded by the crowd, they still have to keep their manner, and watched these two leave.
Three men stood in frond of the window in a building about two kilometers away, watching Chen Mu.
“He’s stronger.”Wen’s voice was full of viciousness just like the ruby on his mask. At his side, standing two people, the temperament of the left side of the heavy coagulant, is Yuchi Bai.The man on the right, his face crisscrossed with scars, squinted at Chen’s retreating figure, deep in his eye, are resentment like venom.
“You would be dead now if you fought he like the man he had become now” Wen Ping said calmly.
“I’m stronger, too.”
His voice was hoa.r.s.e and unpleasant to hear, like a knife sc.r.a.ping the gla.s.s. Scar face, on the other hand, looked quite calm, but his fists were clenched with blue veins.
If Chen Mu sees him, he might not be able to recognize him. He is Le Yin who is seriously injured by Chen Mu.
“The last time you saw him, he used Golden Word Shackle, too?”
Wen asked suddenly.
“No.”Jin Yin shook her head: “it was another strange card.” he added after a short stop: “but very powerful.”
“Oh.”Wen chuckled: “what a interesting guy, I did not expect that mota’s [Golden Word Shackle] can show such power through his hands. Well, even Dang Han show such big interesting in it, is there really anything special about it?”
Yuchi turned his head and asked. “shall I s.n.a.t.c.h it?”
“Well, First thing comes first, we need to focus on our original plan at this point.”Wen mused.
Yuchi Bai nodded, while Le Yin’s eyes flashed a unwilling.
While Chen Mu was walking, he still considered those words of Zeng Yushan. But he certainly didn’t want to involve into such troubles, although he felt that those who play frost moon cold continent did not have much chance to win, but since others dare to play frost moon cold continent, he did not believe they are really weak rivals. Those people may not be a real threaten to the frost moon cold continent, but they might still strong enough to take his life.
What’s more, he needs to be in the East Rui region as soon as possilbe, which leaves him no time to stay in here. So far, everything was going well with all goals achived. Every single battle was very fatal, Mota, Le Yin, and today’s Dang Han, He didn’t have absolute confidence to win any of these battles. But he got luck, Chen Mu knew he is going to lose if this battles happened a little early.
There was no need to linger after won all battles, as no one can rely on luck forever.
Chen Mu did not notice that A’Sang’s was quietly stare at him with love in her eyes. When Chen Mu was deep in his thoughts, he seems to have a certain attraction, even his less attractive face looks gentle and adorable.
To be honest, A’Sang was blown away today.
She did not know who Dang Han was, but that did not prevent her from having her own understanding of the battle. The image of Qiao Yuan’s wildness was seared into her heart at that moment. She had never seen such a man full of power, surging martial, awe-inspiring like G.o.d! Compared with him, the players she had met who were called heroic were nothing but sissies.
Today, n.o.body can compare with this ugly man, even Zheng Yushan, who used to be the most gentle and handsome man had lost his charm. Now when she laid eye on Zheng again, she couldn’t find the same feeling when she first saw him.
Involuntarily, something her mother used to tell her came up.
Some men, the closer you’ve get to him the more you will be attracted by him
A’Sang felt in a daze when she thought of it, now she cannot move her eye anymore, her mind is now all occupied by Chen Mu.
Why he won’t look at me? After a while, A’Sang was subconsciously angry, but when she realise what she was doing, she felt a sudden self-blame, h.e.l.l no, how could she has such thoughts.
In an instant his face burned violently.
Now recall these days even since they met, Qiao Yuan has been acting pretty indifference, even when he saw her real face. She always felt that he was a man full of contradictions. The crazy domineering arrogant figure, and the current silent thinker, is really the same person?
A’Sang felt her mind is in big mess, she cannot tell what’s in it anymore.
“How far is it?
After heard this words A’Sang felt she was struck by lightning, and suddenly come back as the old A’Sang. She looked round scary. She had led to the wrong way because she was indulged in her feeling about him.
But she managed to act in calm. “about ten minutes.”
Chen Mu answered with a single word “oh” without more questions. A’Sang Could not help but secretly glance at Chen Mu, he kept month close, obviously didn’t want to talk, she felt very disappointed but hard to tell why.
“Why did you refuse Zeng Yushan? Join hands with frost moon cold continent cooperation is bad thing? The cards frost moon cold continent chose are all come with good offer!” A’Sang didn’t understand and asked Chen Mu.
In fact, she was surprised when Zeng Yushan reached an olive branch to Qiao Yuan.
It is a great honor for the average card artisan to be appreciated by the frost moon cold continent.
She did not understand why Chen Mu turn this deal off, was is nice to have such power backer?
What’s more, Zeng Yushan’s acted quite sincere and modesty, which is quite rare att.i.tude for the frost moon cold continent.
“I’ve got more things to do, no need to struggle on this.” Chen Mu answered without a slightly trace he just survived from a fatal battle in his face.
A’Sang was silent.
As he walked, Chen Mu stretched his body to release the tense. He needed time to recover his strength, and now there was a great deal of turbulence in Zaghan, and if anything happened to him, he would be in trouble.All he wanted now was to hurry to south star and buy the materials, and then go back and have a good rest.
