Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Chu Xingguo stood there in a daze. His face was pale, and his legs were trembling.
The expression on Chu Xingguo’s face was filled with complications. He was shocked when he first heard the bad news, and then the pain and anger of his comrade’s sacrifice hit him after.
Even during then, he felt relieved that he had escaped death.
If he hadn’t been injured and was forced to recuperate, his photo would have appeared on television by now…
To be honest, Chu Xingguo was not afraid of death!
He even felt great shame that he couldn’t live and die together with his comrades. His greatest disappointment was that he couldn’t charge forward with General Gao Baisheng to his death!
However, when Chu Xingguo thought of his wife, his daughter who could not take care of herself, and Chu Lingjun who had awakened his superpower and had a bright future… His body trembled and cold sweat broke out on his back!
He didn’t live for himself alone!
He was not only a soldier but also a husband and a father!
At the training field behind the residential area.
The muscles on Chu Lingjun’s hands swelled up one by one, and his fists shot out like a battering ram. Although it was slow, it carried a mountain-like pressure as he punched out!
His strength was unmatchable, and he could crush everything in his sight!
Immediately, a huge pit several meters in diameter was formed in the sand in front of Chu Lingjun!
With Chu Lingjun as the center, the surrounding sand stirred up a shock wave. It was as if countless waves were rapidly moving away from him.
A large amount of sand flew up from the ground and scattered in all directions!
Mountain Splitting Cannon!
After this punch, Chu Lingjun did not stop moving. His fists shot out cannon-like attacks and destroyed the surrounding area.
Chu Lingjun’s fists turned into afterimages as he roared at the sky.
The countless grains of sand scattered in the surroundings were cleared away in the blink of an eye by Chu Lingjun’s swift fist.
Chain Cannon!
After executing these two moves, Chu Lingjun suddenly turned from a state flurry to one of extreme stillness.
He crouched on the ground, his spine taut. He looked straight ahead and placed his right fist on his waist as if he was accumulating strength!
Energy surged around him and circulated around his body before gathering on his right fist.
Chu Lingjun’s face turned pale, but his right fist quickly turned red!
A terrifying aura spread out from Chu Lingjun’s right fist!
Chu Xingguo, who had been holding his breath, threw out a frisbee.
The moment the frisbee flew past Chu Lingjun, he reacted!
Chu Lingjun’s tensed body was instantly released like a bow that had been pulled!
Chu Lingjun’s body turned into an afterimage as he turned into a black lightning bolt and shot toward the flying disc.
The fist that carried the strength of his entire body smashed down.
The disc made of metal broke like a fragile porcelain when the fist touched it, instantly shattering into countless pieces!
The tiny metal fragments splattered in all directions. Some of the surrounding stones were hit by these metal fragments and were shot into a hornet’s nest. It was a shocking sight!
The result was brilliant. However, Chu Lingjun immediately sat on the ground, panting and sweating profusely! The effect had caused him to lose a lot of energy.
An immense sense of exhaustion invaded his entire body. The veins on his right fist and arm bulged, humming and twitching violently.
Chu Xingguo quickly rushed over and provided his son with supplements.
Chu Lingjun caught it and panted for a while before swallowing it in large mouthfuls. Only then did his strength recover.
“You’ve grown!”
“The Mountain Splitting Cannon, Chain Cannon, and Flying Cloud Cannon were released very skillfully!”
Chu Xingguo said in awe. Ever since his son encountered that incident, it was as if he had reached the turning point of his life. All kinds of talents showed!
Chu Lingjun smiled. In front of the attribute panel, as long as one worked hard to learn any cultivation technique, they would be rewarded.
“I have to go out of the city to get more beast meat…”
Chu Lingjun thought to himself as he ate the food his mother prepared.
After eating for half a month, their supplies decreased. The rest was supposed to be for his father.
There were four mouths to feed now.
However, it wasn’t a big problem. There was plenty of exotic beast meat in Lianjiang. He was grateful for the gift of nature.
“Dad, Gao Baisheng was a general. How did he die?” Chu Lingjun recalled the news from the day and asked curiously.
Hearing this name, Chu Xingguo’s face darkened as he replied, “There are two teams stationed outside our town, each of them had about ten thousand people.
“Each ten-thousand-man troop is commanded by three generals. General Gao Baisheng was one of the six generals.
“General Gao Baisheng is highly respected in the army and has a high status. He always takes the lead in every battle.
“However, General Gao Baisheng was seriously injured when he was young. Although he recovered later, he still had underlying issues.
“Over the years, General Gao Baisheng kept suffering from old and new injuries. His health slowly deteriorated because of that. Last time, when the exotic beasts attacked the city, General Gao Baisheng’s back was even scratched by the claws of the exotic beasts.
“A few of his bones were broken. I heard that his heart was almost cut in half!
“So I believe the obituary that said he died from exhaustion.”
Chu Xingguo gritted his teeth.
It was inevitable for generals to die on the battlefield. Many of them would never pass the age of growing white hair!
Chu Lingjun sighed. In this chaotic era where creatures constantly descended, whether it was ordinary people or generals, it was difficult for them to escape death.
Chu Lingjun’s desire to become stronger grew even stronger!
After cultivating, Chu Lingjun carried his backpack and headed out of the city.
After swiping his ID card, Chu Lingjun passed through the metal city wall that was armed with live ammunition. He cautiously glanced left and right before walking toward a row of low iron houses outside the city.
There were all kinds of shops in these metal huts. There were warrior shops, exotic beast shops, weapon shops, restaurants, and so on.
Chu Lingjun randomly found a relatively large shop and went into the toilet.
When Chu Lingjun came out of the toilet, his appearance had changed. Chu Lingjun’s skin turned dark, like an old farmer who has been plowing fields for many years.
He had a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes. He looked a little fierce and did not look approachable.
His height had also increased. Chu Lingjun had put two insoles under his feet, and he had grown five centimeters.
His shoulders, back, stomach, and legs were also stuffed with some clothes and steel plates, making Chu Lingjun’s body stronger and burly.
His clothes had changed into a dirty brown combat uniform. There were even scratches, burns, and blood stains on his body.
He wore a wide black hat that covered almost half of his face.
With Chu Lingjun’s attire, not even his parents would be able to recognize him.
Chu Lingjun looked at himself with satisfaction and quickly rushed towards Lianjiang.
Not long after Chu Lingjun left, two figures quietly followed behind him..
