Chapter 183: Chapter 171: A Major Turn of Events

The woman couldn’t believe it.

But whether she believed it or not, she was now dead. Just as she rushed toward Fang Tangtang, the Earth Dragon, which had already fallen to the ground, appeared behind her like a phantom.

A slash of its scythe.

After evolving into raw iron, the Earth Dragon’s attack power had risen to a new level.

With a single slice, her head fell to the ground.

And it wasn’t just the woman who had charged Fang Tangtang. The snakeskin-clad middle-aged man rushing toward Gao Neng was also staring at his own chest in disbelief.

For in his chest was a wound from an Alloy Saber.

"You..."

"Ah! That was the last of my strength!" Gao Neng yelled. He then sent the snakeskin-clad man flying with a kick before his body, spent of energy, rolled aside once more.

The snakeskin-clad middle-aged man was speechless.

’So, he’d fallen for Gao Neng’s dirty trick?’

’Tricked by an eighteen-year-old human?’

’But how could this be?’

’After borrowing the power of the Spring of Life, Gao Neng’s strength had already surpassed theirs. From his perspective, it was impossible that Gao Neng would deliberately waste any more time.’

’But Gao Neng had used that exact assumption against them...’

’He’d hidden one last bit of strength to deal them a fatal blow.’

PTHOO!

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out.

The snakeskin-clad middle-aged man collapsed to a sitting position. Blood constantly flowed from the wound in his chest, his strength draining away, but he wasn’t about to die just yet.

"Big Brother, how are you?" the Middle-tier Woman cried out in alarm. Then, her gaze shifted to the corpse lying before Fang Tangtang in the distance. "Third Sister... Third Sister!"

"Quick, kill them! They can’t possibly have any strength left... It’s impossible!" the snakeskin-clad middle-aged man shouted, clutching his chest tightly.

"Gao Neng, I’ll kill you!" The Middle-tier Woman was frantic.

White bones, like sharp spikes, began to sprout continuously from her body. She had to kill Gao Neng and Fang Tangtang to avenge her Third Sister.

As for Gao Neng, he seemed terrified and kept backing away.

His face was incredibly pale.

Both of his hands trembled from exhaustion, and the Alloy Saber had already fallen from his grasp.

He crawled through the Iron Thorn bushes, but his movements were extremely slow. He looked like a withered leaf in the wind, ready to be crushed with the slightest touch.

"Gao Neng... run..." Fang Tangtang was equally desperate.

"Don’t come any closer... I... I still have strength left! I can still move! If you come over here, I’ll make you die a horrible death! I’ve broken the Fourth Human Limit! I have five talents over 80%! You’d better run..." Gao Neng shouted weakly.

"Run?! It’s impossible for you to have any strength left, Gao Neng! No matter how much of a genius you are, you’ll die here today for sure!" The Middle-tier Woman charged, the bones on her body like sharp swords.

Her speed was immense.

At least ten times faster than the current Gao Neng, if not more.

The more Gao Neng insisted he had strength, the more convinced she became that he was truly exhausted. He couldn’t possibly be playing another trick. Time wouldn’t allow for it; the very nature of the Spring of Life guaranteed it.

But just as she was less than half a step away from him, her eyes widened once more. She saw the smile playing on Gao Neng’s lips.

Most importantly, that once-pale face was now flushed with color.

Then, she saw a hand reach out.

With an almost terrifying speed, a fist slammed into her chest.

BOOM!

The Middle-tier Woman went flying.

Her boobs hurt.

Of course, her heart hurt even more.

And in the instant she was sent flying, a black shadow appeared before her. Two scythe-like claws, with a SWISH, slashed toward her throat.

"GAO NENG!!!" the Middle-tier Woman roared. Two sharp fangs suddenly grew in her mouth, and she bit down directly on the Earth Dragon’s claw.

CLANG!

A violent tremor shook the air.

The Middle-tier Woman was flung back like a cannonball.

KABOOM! A large, human-shaped crater appeared in the wall.

This turn of events left the snakeskin-clad middle-aged man, who was still clutching his chest, utterly stunned.

’They’d fallen for his trick again?’

’How is this possible!’

’He couldn’t believe it. He truly couldn’t believe that a Tier Two like Gao Neng could possess so much energy!’

"I told you I still had strength, but you just wouldn’t believe me, would you? How’s that feel?" Gao Neng dusted himself off, looking at the Middle-tier Woman as she slowly slid to the ground.

"You... you..." The Middle-tier Woman was so furious she couldn’t speak.

But Gao Neng didn’t give her another chance to speak.

He rushed forward.

Without his Alloy Saber, he used his fists.

One punch, two punches, three punches...

All of them hammered at the Middle-tier Woman’s weak points.

The Middle-tier Woman was completely unable to resist Gao Neng’s torrential assault. She finally collapsed limply to the ground, several of her bones broken.

"Classmate Fang Tangtang, what do you think? Should we kill the man and leave the woman alive?" Gao Neng then turned his head to glance at Fang Tangtang.

Fang Tangtang had been stunned speechless ever since she saw the Middle-tier Woman get sent flying by that one punch.

’Gao Neng actually had the strength to keep fighting?’

’They were both Tier Two.’

’And she was even a Tier Two Late Stage.’

’But in the end, she was truly exhausted, while Gao Neng could last this long?’

’What the hell?’

’Did he have to be so discouraging!’

’Most importantly, I can clearly sense that Gao Neng still has plenty of energy. It doesn’t feel at all like he took a Seed Burst Pill; it’s more like he just joined the battle.’

’His energy signature is just too immense.’

"You’re not thinking of sparing the guy, are you? You’ve got some heavy tastes, Classmate Fang Tangtang!" Gao Neng spoke again when Fang Tangtang didn’t reply.
