Chapter 398: Blade-Hunting the Black Bear
Even Xiang Fei and Luo Hou, the two who utterly looked down on Cheng Yuan, couldn’t help but clench their fists tightly!
’Fucking badass!’
’Mr. Cheng is just fucking badass!’
Facing such a terrifying black bear, they didn’t even have the courage to make a move!
But Mr. Cheng, with a single strike, had heavily wounded the black bear!
It’s just that, the more heavily a black bear is injured, the more berserk it becomes!
’Mr. Cheng isn’t going to be torn to shreds by the enraged bear, is he?’
As Xiang Fei and Luo Hou watched nervously, the black bear suddenly spun around and roared madly at Cheng Yuan. Its cumbersome body was like a heavy-duty truck, mercilessly bearing down on him!
The three women were so nervous they could barely breathe!
Lying on the ground, Wan Liang practically hated himself!
’I’m so useless! I sprained my ankle at such a critical moment. Brother Cheng is so formidable; if I could just help him, we might really have a chance to kill the black bear!’
"Xiang Fei! Luo Hou! You two, hurry up and help Brother Cheng!!!"
Wan Liang roared frantically, but the black bear was in a state of berserk fury. How could the two of them dare to step forward?
Wan Liang struggled to stand up on his injured leg, but his ankle was swollen like a steamed bun. Even standing was a strain; he was completely useless!
Wan Liang could only watch in despair as the frenzied black bear got closer and closer to Cheng Yuan!
Facing the black bear that was like a heavy-duty truck, not only did Cheng Yuan not retreat, but a look of extreme excitement actually appeared on his face!
’In terms of pure strength, this enraged black bear definitely has physical power exceeding that of a Martial Emperor!’
’Perfect for a little practice!’
"Beast! Good! Take this!"
Cheng Yuan let out another roar and swung his blade viciously!
Seeing Cheng Yuan actually choose to meet it head-on, Wan Liang grew extremely anxious and shouted, "Brother Cheng! Dodge! Don’t fight it head-on! Our strength can’t compete with a black bear! Especially not an enraged one! Don’t—"
Wan Liang’s words caught in his throat halfway through. He stared in utter disbelief at the scene unfolding before him!
SQUELCH!
With one slash, Cheng Yuan severed the black bear’s left foreleg. He dropped low, dodging the attack from its right paw, then followed through with an Iron Mountain Lean, slamming heavily into the bear’s chest!
A dull THUD!
The massive impact sent Cheng Yuan stumbling back five steps!
But the black bear also staggered back two steps!
Wan Liang felt a rush of blood to his head, as if he was about to go crazy!
’Before, it was a sneak attack, so it’s understandable that Brother Cheng injured the bear!’
’But this is a direct confrontation!’
’Brother Cheng actually cut off the black bear’s left arm with a single slash!’
’What kind of ferocious combat power is this?’
’Even if the Hunting God himself were reborn, he’d be no better than this, right?’
’What’s even more outrageous is that Brother Cheng could actually wrestle with the bear, taking its strength head-on with his own body!’
’Keep in mind, the bear was at a full charge, while Brother Cheng struck in a hurry!’
’Just what species is Brother Cheng?!’
Wan Liang let out a hysterical roar: "Brother Cheng is a badass! Fucking incredible!!"
The spirits of Xiang Fei and Luo Hou, who had been scared witless by the bear, were also roused. They tilted their heads back and roared!
"Mr. Cheng has Divine Power! He’s like the King of Chu reborn!!"
"Fuck! And here I thought the black bear was so tough! Is that all it’s got? Mr. Cheng, I, Xiang Fei, will help you kill the bear!"
Seeing Cheng Yuan so easily wound the black bear, Xiang Fei and Luo Hou felt they were capable again. They charged forward, yelling.
SQUELCH! SQUELCH!
Their two blades struck the black bear’s body!
Unfortunately, they only managed to cut through the bear’s fur. To the black bear, it was like being tickled!
The black bear, extremely annoyed, swatted at the two of them with its remaining right arm as if shooing away flies!
The two copied what they saw, mimicking Cheng Yuan’s earlier move and hacking fiercely at the black bear’s right arm!
Unfortunately, some things look simple, but are incredibly difficult to actually learn!
The two lacked Cheng Yuan’s strength and couldn’t sever the bear’s arm. They only left two insignificant, painless wounds on it.
There was only a loud BANG!
An irresistible, immense force struck them!
The two were sent flying, thrown a full five or six meters away!
HACK!
Both of them violently spat out a mouthful of blood at the same time, clearly having suffered a serious internal injury!
After confronting the black bear head-on, the two of them deeply understood the gap between themselves and Cheng Yuan.
They subconsciously glanced at each other, and both saw a trace of lingering fear in the other’s eyes!
’All along the way, we looked down on Cheng Yuan, this ’newcomer,’ and mocked him multiple times. Just now, we even wanted to kill him. It’s a good thing Young Master Wan stopped us!’
’And thank goodness the bear showed up when it did. Otherwise, if we had shown any malice toward Mr. Cheng, the consequences would have been unimaginable!’
After swatting Xiang Fei and Luo Hou away, the black bear didn’t take the opportunity to finish them off. Instead, it continued to lunge at Cheng Yuan. Only he was the greatest threat to it!
Unfortunately, the black bear was no match for Cheng Yuan even when uninjured, let alone now.
Cheng Yuan was like a nimble butterfly, constantly weaving around the black bear.
SQUELCH! SQUELCH!
Cheng Yuan’s Hunting Blade flashed in a series of flourishes, and seven or eight wounds, deep enough to show bone, appeared on the black bear’s chest!
One of the cuts was even on its neck, less than ten centimeters from the carotid artery!
This scene made everyone’s heart surge with excitement!
’Blade-hunting!’
’This is true blade-hunting!’
’Hunting a black bear with a blade is the mark of a Hunting God!’
’To think that in our lifetimes, we could personally witness the rise of a Hunting God!’
The black bear’s violent aura grew weaker and weaker. It could already smell the scent of death!
The black bear knew that if it kept fighting, it would surely die today!
At this moment of life and death, the black bear could no longer care about finding its cub. With a roar, it turned and fled!
Cheng Yuan knew well that black bears were particularly vengeful animals. If he let it escape, it would definitely find a chance to get revenge!
’I absolutely cannot let it escape!’
"Beast, where do you think you’re going!"
SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!
Cheng Yuan threw a handful of Silver Needles!
The Silver Needles accurately struck the black bear’s left leg, sealing the acupuncture points in its leg!
It had to be said, the black bear’s constitution was several times stronger than a human’s!
If these Silver Needles had hit a human Martial Artist’s leg, that person would have instantly lost the ability to move.
But the black bear merely slowed down a bit, still able to hobble forward.
For Cheng Yuan, that was enough.
Cheng Yuan quickly gave chase, getting closer and closer to the black bear!
Just as Cheng Yuan was about to catch the black bear, just as he was about to sever its carotid artery with one slash, a piercing sonic boom suddenly sounded from behind!
Cheng Yuan instinctively turned his head and saw Chen Ping standing at the door of the wooden cabin, having just shot an arrow at the black bear!
A divine light flashed through Cheng Yuan’s pupils as he caught sight of the arrow’s shadow.
THWIP!
The arrow accurately struck the black bear in the back, right where its heart was!
THUMP!
The black bear, heavily wounded, crashed to the ground!
The black bear struggled to get up, but Cheng Yuan mercilessly brought his blade down on its carotid artery!
SQUELCH!
Blood sprayed out!
The black bear struggled for a moment before its breathing ceased entirely.
Suddenly, Chen Ping’s extremely excited shout came from behind: "Young Master Wan! Did you see that? I hit the black bear’s heart! I killed the black bear!!"
