Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 1371: Chapter 1370: [Trapped in Despair Once Again Within Minutes]

Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl indeed hadn’t expected that they would cause Ye Tianchen such a miserable plight, practically causing trouble every step of the way. Yet, when danger peaked, Ye Tianchen returned to rescue them, something they hadn’t anticipated but felt differently about. They sensed that Ye Tianchen seemed to possess qualities not typically found in a Martial Artist, perhaps making him truly an anomaly.

After harshly thrashing Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl, Ye Tianchen left without saying a word. Confronted with these two mischief-makers, he couldn’t find any words applicable. Attempting dialogue would just infuriate him further, so Ye Tianchen decisively chose silence, swiftly departing. He didn’t want to dwell there. The Vermilion Bird, Old Xuan Turtle, and Divine Monkey were all extraordinarily formidable. Although he himself could come and go freely, potentially facing death alone, he couldn’t let the Fisherman and Xiao Ling — both ordinary individuals lacking any combat power — find themselves in the same predicament. He had already, through one careless error, nearly caused their demise, and Ye Tianchen vowed not to let such a situation happen again.

Bang!

The Divine Monkey remained fierce; it wouldn’t be easy to shock and kill it, otherwise Ye Tianchen wouldn’t have left immediately after saving Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl. The monkey had already gone berserk, its murderous nature gradually surfacing, determined not to spare Ye Tianchen and his allies. It would pursue them to the exit of the ”Original Restricted Zone” and perhaps even beyond, likely igniting a bloody chaos.

The God-beating Whip was knocked away by the Desolate Sky Halberd wielded by the Divine Monkey. Without Ye Tianchen’s guidance, the whip merely flew back towards Ye Tianchen. This left Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl stunned, faces paling, as they frantically fled. With Ye Tianchen already gone and their own heavy injuries, they were no match for the monkey. Staying meant awaiting death. Without hesitation, they desperately chased after Ye Tianchen, now relying solely on his protection. Straying from Ye Tianchen meant a certain death; they had to stay close to his heels to evade the monkey’s pursuit.

Swish! Swish!

Ye Tianchen knew these two troublemakers well enough; they would certainly flee frantically to save themselves. Even if momentarily provoked, igniting some spirited strength, they wouldn’t change their core natures; if they could escape, they absolutely would, regardless of dignity.

As expected, Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl quickly caught up with Ye Tianchen, desperately trying to overtake him, intending to leave Ye Tianchen to bear the monkey’s aggressive chase so they could flee ahead.

”Don’t be too fast, we need to take a gamble; otherwise, there’s no way to escape this monkey’s pursuit!” Ye Tianchen conveyed through Divine Thought to Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl.

”What’s going on? Do you have a different plan?” Little Zhu Yan couldn’t help but ask.

”A gamble? How are we gambling?” God Beating Bowl also asked, puzzled.

”You’ll know soon, I can feel it coming...”

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen’s gaze shifted as he swiftly dodged aside. A blood-red shadow swept towards them — it was the Vermilion Bird, drenched in blood, with one wing slashed off, yet still possessing a fight within, capable of flight.

Thud!

A loud crash, the earth trembled, an apocalyptic power emerged as the Old Xuan Turtle arrived as well. The Vermilion Bird and Old Xuan Turtle each occupied a position, encircling Ye Tianchen, Little Zhu Yan, and the God Beating Bowl. Meanwhile, the angered Divine Monkey also reached them, enveloped in a vicious aura, with a fury that demanded bloodshed for contentment, intensely violent!

”You’re all here, seems like your nests were infiltrated by this kid?” The Divine Monkey coldly glanced at the Vermilion Bird and Old Xuan Turtle.

”Hmph, it seems you’re not doing any better!” the Vermilion Bird replied coldly.

”I wish to kill everyone here, everyone!” Old Xuan Turtle said, surging with a vicious aura.

At this moment, Ye Tianchen, Little Zhu Yan, and the God Beating Bowl, caught in the middle, dared not act hastily. Whether it was the Vermilion Bird, Old Xuan Turtle, or the Divine Monkey, all were immensely powerful. Even combined, their chances of overcoming just one of these monsters were bleak. They had to wait and couldn’t act recklessly!

”Nima, how did these three monsters gather together again?” Little Zhu Yan, feeling a cold sweat, transmitted via Divine Thought.

”No way, we’re still trapped in the middle; this seems like a path to death, leading to destruction, turning us into ashes!” God Beating Bowl observed, looking left and right.

”I lured them all here!” Ye Tianchen conveyed in a low voice through Divine Thought.

”Huh? Faint, I’m going to cry, you kid... didn’t you know how formidable these three guys are? We barely escaped, only to be caught again, with all three monsters gathered, completely encircling us. How can we not die?” Little Zhu Yan said, caught between laughter and tears.

”I feel like I’m already dead!” The God Beating Bowl said, utterly frustrated.

Ye Tianchen glanced at the God Beating Bowl and Little Zhu Yan, then transmitted a divine thought in a low voice, saying, ”Both of you, listen carefully. We only have this one chance to escape, fleeting as it may be, and when I make a move, you must act accordingly. Otherwise, you will truly be obliterated!”

”Kid...what exactly is your plan?” Little Zhu Yan couldn’t help but ask.

”It would set our minds at ease if you told us!” the God Beating Bowl also said anxiously.

”There’s no time, be ready to act at any moment!” Ye Tianchen interrupted Little Zhu Yan and the God Beating Bowl, saying decisively.

At this moment, the Vermilion Bird, the Old Xuan Turtle, and the Divine Monkey all glanced at each other coldly, not immediately striking to kill Ye Tianchen, Little Zhu Yan, and the God Beating Bowl. They seemed to believe that Tianchen and his companions were already surrounded, wings clipped, doomed even if they had wings to escape. Moreover, there was enmity among the three of them, liable to erupt any time, so they were wary of each other!

”Your wings haven’t healed; it looks like you won’t live much longer!” The Divine Monkey looked at the Vermilion Bird, sneering.

”Is that so? You can come and try; your clan’s Monkey Wine is no big deal either, and your injuries aren’t healed!” The Vermilion Bird said disdainfully.

”You two, don’t make noise. This Original Restricted Zone was meant to be peaceful. I think it’s better if I alone guard it. You both should die!” The Old Xuan Turtle glared at the Vermilion Bird and the Divine Monkey, saying coldly.

”Old thing, your turtle shell has already been shattered by that human stuck in the stone, don’t get too arrogant!” The Vermilion Bird coldly retorted to the Old Xuan Turtle.

”Your turtle shell is your strongest defense, but that Human Clan Practitioner was too powerful, shattering it with a single palm. Once cracked, breaking it will be much easier!” The Divine Monkey gritted its teeth.

The Old Xuan Turtle glanced at the Vermilion Bird and the Divine Monkey, calmly saying, ”Even so, you are still no match for me, and you’ll die by my hands. Indeed, that Human Clan Practitioner was formidable, wounding all three of us severely. Being able to wound us in such a state is really quite remarkable. If he were to emerge, he’d surely be an earth-shattering figure, but alas, he won’t live long...”

Ye Tianchen’s heart trembled; even as the Vermilion Bird, Old Xuan Turtle, and Divine Monkey conversed casually, it was evident they all referred to someone—Qin Kongdao. In order to save them, Senior Qin Kongdao had angered the three monsters, drawing their attack, thus giving Ye Tianchen and the others a chance to escape. He was truly a respectable elder.

Hearing the dialog among the Old Xuan Turtle, Vermilion Bird, and Divine Monkey, Ye Tianchen was deeply concerned. These three creatures were by no means easy to deal with; they were the strongest lurking beings in the Original Restricted Zone. And Qin Kongdao battled these three monsters alone; what was the outcome? The monsters were all severely wounded, retreating to their lairs. But what about Senior Qin Kongdao? Did he perish?

”Enough talk. After I kill this Human Clan Practitioner, I’ll settle with you!” the Vermilion Bird said coldly.

”This isn’t just your business!” the Old Xuan Turtle also intended to intervene.

”Don’t put on airs here. This Human Clan Practitioner barged into our lairs and took the exotic treasures from within. If you want to kill him and claim everything for yourself, you’ll need my approval!” The Divine Monkey said domineeringly.

Clearly, the Vermilion Bird, Old Xuan Turtle, and Divine Monkey had been lured here by Ye Tianchen. They all knew Ye Tianchen had been to their three lairs—the Pure Blood Vermilion Bird Spiritual Feather from the Vermilion Bird Nest, the Healing Grass at the Old Xuan Turtle’s cave entrance, the Original Spirit Stone and Monkey Wine from the Divine Monkey’s lair. These were invaluable treasures each desired from the others but dared not invade for. Now brought out by Ye Tianchen, this was a rare opportunity!

Bang!

Boom!

Swoosh!

Three mighty powers of slaughter blasted towards Ye Tianchen. Standing in the middle, he said nothing. As these forces converged on him, he shouted, ”Now’s the time...” (To be continued.
