Novel Bin Chapter 297: Not That Seriously Wounded
Chapter 297: Not That Seriously Wounded
The dozen of Doom Shrooms were thrown at the white blaze spilling out of the Stargate.
Kaboom!
Another explosion!
Thanks to the dozen of Doom Shrooms, the white blaze that should have bombarded Jiang He’s house dispersed resoundingly ten thousand meters up in the air.
“It worked!”
Jiang He appeared delighted, but that look on his face soon changed!
He was too close to the explosion, being just around a hundred meters away!
As the searing heat wave surged right in his face, even though Jiang He kept his body intact by summoning the Sky Daemon War Armor with a thought, the shockwave left his entire body aching and his vision darkening...
He dropped out of the sky like a missile.
The only thing he could do was to shift himself before he hit the ground, preventing the ensuing shockwave from destroying his yard.
***
“Jiang He!” Wang Hou cried from the distance.
It all happened so fast.
From the instant that Jiang He threw the pitch-black mushrooms into the Stargate... hmmm, Jiang He called it a homecooked bomb, so let us call it that from now!
Anyway, from the instant that Jiang He threw the homecooked bombs into the Stargate until he was dropping out of the sky, it was just a matter of ten seconds even though it sounded like a long process.
Kaboom!
Wang Hou’s cries were then muted by the violent explosive rumble.
The terrible explosive force unfurled ten thousand meters up in the air, its blinding white light assuming the form of a giant mushroom cloud before spreading over every direction. Even from fifteen kilometers away, Wang Hou and the other martial elites could clearly feel the oncoming heat wave and buffeting winds.
Up in the skies, the terrible shockwaves gradually dissipated.
Whoosh!
Wang Hou moved at once, rapidly darting towards the direction where Jiang He would land with several other martial elites keeping up right behind him.
They found a massive crater over 500 meters away from Jiang He’s house by the time they reached Jinyintan Village. It was almost a hundred meter wide, inside of which were a field of rubble and a human-shaped hole at its center.
Still, there were bad expressions on everyone’s faces just then.
That explosion was so terrible!
They could feel the horrific force even from fifteen kilometers away, while Jiang He was caught directly in the blast and sent dropping out from ten thousand meters in the sky...
His odds were certainly stacked against him!
“Cough, cough...”
That was when coughing could be heard from within the crater.
Dozens of meters beneath ground, Jiang He was coughing blood. As he tried to shift his body, he actually could not feel it.
He could not help cursing from the terrible agony either. “Oh, hell. This is killing me...”
“You’re still alive, Jiang He?” Wang Hou exclaimed in delight up above.
At the same time, Three Blades Lin laugh, “Like I said, the good never live long, while the wicked...”
He promptly paused, having seen his gramps Lin Tianzheng quietly unsheathe his blade.
Meanwhile, Jiang He remained silent for a long while beneath ground... and suddenly quietly said, “Screw your gramps, Three Blades Lin. Are you bloody cursing me?”
Three Blades Lin inhaled sharply and promptly looked up at Lin Tianzheng, exclaimed in surprise, “What did Jiang He say, gramps?”
Shiiing!
There was a dark look on Lin Tianzheng’s face as he abruptly drew his combat blade, and Three Blades Lin promptly leapt into the crater, worry showing all over his face as he exclaimed, “Hold on, Jiang He. I’ll get you out right now.”
With that, Jiang He was dug out from beneath ground in no time at all.
When the many martial elites saw Jiang He lying on the ground, bleeding all over and having no more than a handful bones that weren’t broken, all of them offered their finest soul medicine back home or at the temple that could help Jiang He recover right away.
Jiang He refused and felt around his body, and immediately had a general idea of his body’s current state.
Hence, he smiled. “Luckily, it’s not that serious.”
“Some of my bones are still fine. My innards are just displaced over a few centimeters and a few dozen tendons are torn. While my veins and nerves are a little seriously wounded, it’s no big deal and a little rest would do.”
Wang Hou was speechless.
The other martial elites appeared weirded out too.
And yet, there was a suddenly scream of shock. “Oh, no! Enemy attack...”
All of them saw a towering figure wearing what remained of a complete set of steel armor just then, and was stepping out of the Stargate with much difficult.
It was Bodo the Sky Demon!
And one of the military’s divine-tier elites who went near the mouth of the Stargate to inspect the situation was instantly punched to death by him!
The faces of the many martial elites dropped right then, and even Jiang He could not help gasping even as he lay on the ground.
“Gasp!”
“That thing is not dead?”
“No way, that’s impossible... He must have been at the center of the explosion. 300 Doom... I mean homecooked bombs blew on top of him! He definitely could not have survived!”
Jiang He was shocked.
In fact, he was not alone—everyone else was dumbstruck too.
Still, despite his surprise, Wang Hou was the first to take to the air and bellow furiously, “Elders, let’s take down this foe together!”
The Tantra Sect’s white-clothed guru stepped up into the skies as well, laughing, “Gentlemen, let’s do this together... we can’t let Jiang He steal all our thunder by himself today!”
“Charge!”
The old Daoist of Mount Qingcheng stepped forth as well and a blue snake flew towards him, carrying him up to the clouds.
“Amitabha!”
The old Shaolin monk put both palms together, reciting a Buddhist Chant as he floated skywards, Buddha’s light shining where he stepped.
In that moment, every other Void-tier elite such as the barefooted Jiang clan elder, the sloppy Daoist of Mount Wudang, Elder Guo, and Elder Ji all went forth, streaking through the skies as they charged upwards.
“Sh*t!”
Three Blades Lin grabbed his combat blade, throwing a tantrum as he was about to charge up the skies as well. Nonetheless, that was when he heard Jiang He shout, “Calm down, Old Lin. That Sky Demon general is very powerful, and you can’t stop him even if he’s grievously injured now.”
Three Blades Lin stopped in his tracks.
He looked up to find that the many other martial elites were already attacking, bursting out with various divine-tier martial arts that covered the champion of the sky demons.
And yet, in the very next instant...
Splat.
It was as if cotton was being torn apart.
With the flash of a blood-colored axe, the godlike techniques and martial arts of the many martial elites were split through.
Blood axe in hand, Bodo seemed emboldened the more he fought and his injuries as well as frail aura was slowly recovering in the process.
Having a hard time moving, Jiang He was forced to lay on the ground, but that position incidentally allows him to witness the entire battle.
After seeing what happened, he could not help saying somberly, “This isn’t good. Bodo is too powerful, while Wang Hou and the others are not inflicting effective damage on him, even affording him openings... Once he completely recovers, killing him would be impossible even for me.”
“Quick!”
“Help me up, Old Lin!”
There were a million questions in Jiang He’s head.
How the f*ck did the Sky Demon general managed to survive?
As Three Blades Lin came up to help him sit up, he saw a flash of light in Jiang He’s hand... and a lunchbox appeared.
It was an exquisite box at that, with pink cartoonish drawings.
Though Jiang He could take things out of his System Backpack with a single thought, the bones on both his arms were broken and he simply couldn’t put the eggplant or meat in the lunchbox down his mouth.
“Old Lin, feed me!” Jiang He said then.
Three Blades Lin’s mouth was left hanging open at that...
What the hell?
Bro.
Both Minister Wang and my gramps are about to lose, and you still have the mood to eat?
Most importantly, you are so hurt...
Could you really eat?
“What are you spacing out for?”
Though being fed by a fully grown man was embarrassing, Jiang He could not care less right then and he barked angrily, “Old Lin, feed me right now or your gramps and the others are going to be killed soon!”
