Chapter 531: Again

Chen Zhao was also troubled. What exactly is blood coexistence?

We were happily having a melee. Why can the last one release Sword Qi?

That’s cheating…

Guess we can’t play anymore.

“Chen, what do we do now?”

“Let me think.”

Swish!

Suddenly, another beam of white light shot out from the darkness.

Where everyone was lying, a tree collapsed.

Chen Zhao stopped the falling tree with his arm so that the rest would not be hit.

There’s no other way. If we wait here, we’ll eventually be killed.

I have to fight it directly.

“Don’t get up.”

“Chen, be careful.”

With the Eye of Shadow Vision, Chen Zhao could see the magical guardian beast hidden in the darkness.

It seemed to be preparing something in its mouth. A few seconds later, it fired a white beam from its mouth.

Chen Zhao dodged to the left and the beam barely missed him.

A few more seconds later, Chen Zhao moved to the right and avoided the attack again.

“Wow.”

“How did he dodge such a quick attack?”

The witch mercenaries had all been through systematic training.

They were quite strong, as though they were from the army.

However, similar to goods in the same production line, they had the exact same skills.

They were adept at guns and similar magic items.

But this also resulted in their weakness: their magic knowledge was very poor, unlike Rupert and Sienna who had been learning magic themselves.

Of course, only Sienna and Rupert were true witches.

The witch mercenaries were more like soldiers.

Alone, Chen Zhao walked deeper and deeper into the forest, until he disappeared into the darkness.

He had already managed to analyze the guardian beast’s attacks and weaknesses.

Realizing Chen Zhao’s approach, the magical guardian beast immediately moved back.

It was quite intelligent.

It knew that Chen Zhao was extremely powerful at close range.

While it had become significantly stronger than before, it was not confident in taking Chen Zhao in close combat.

Chen Zhao was actually somewhat glad that it was moving.

After all, it could only release white beams while stationary.

If it moved, its attacks would stop.

Chen Zhao suddenly accelerated and chased after the guardian beast.

He was no slower than the beast, at least when they were both charging.

Suddenly, the magical guardian beast stopped without warning and turned to face Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao could feel his hair stand. Danger!

A beam of white light shot toward him.

Chen Zhao cursed as he threw himself to the side.

It had been acting. The guardian beast could release white beams even when running.

The white beam flashed across Chen Zhao’s shoulder and left a wound.

Just then, the magical guardian beast leaped at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao raised his arm and hit it with his fist.

This time, the guardian beast only took a few steps back, unlike the last few ones which had been smashed directly.

The guardian beast’s body was clearly much tougher than before.

Chen Zhao began to muster his magical power. Strength alone was insufficient to kill the beast.

“Sigh… Why am I in this kind of adventure? Why can’t I just live in peace?”

The magical guardian beast pounced at Chen Zhao again, who also jumped at it.

The two rolled into a scuffle as they punched and scratched each other frantically.

Chen Zhao was also in a ruthless fury. He opened the Mouth of Glutton and bit the guardian beast’s neck tightly.

The beast struggled wildly, attempting to break free.

However, Chen Zhao was determined not to let go.

Die!!

Chen Zhao put more force into the Mouth.

Crack!

Finally, he heard a clear crack as the Mouth of Glutton sank into the guardian beast’s neck.

The magical guardian beast struggled on the ground, but it did not manage to stand up again.

By then, Chen Zhao was also too exhausted to move.

Originally, Chen Zhao thought that he was powerful enough already.

As long as he did not provoke everyone he saw, nothing would be able to threaten him.

However, a random magical guardian beast was enough to force him into a predicament.

It turned out that he was not as strong as he had imagined.

The Mouth of Glutton started to devour the beast’s body again. It was a complete instinct; Chen Zhao did not want it to.

Achoo—

It was happening again!

Indeed, it seemed like Chen Zhao should not eat random magic creatures again.

Sienna, Rupert and the rest finally reached.

“Chen, are you alright?”

At the moment, Chen Zhao looked really scary, with his entire body covered in blood.

On the ground, there were the remains of the magical guardian beast.

“Ah…” Chen Zhao’s nose felt itchy again.

Everyone escaped at once. His sneeze was too alarming.

“I’m fine now… Go and get the blueheart blossom.” Chen Zhao shook his head.

“I’m fine.”

Achoo—

A huge tree collapsed. Everyone stared at Chen Zhao, speechless.

You’re fine?

“I’m really fine now.”

“You sure?”

Chen Zhao immediately turned around and sneezed again.

Nobody spoke a word.

Chen Zhao was also helpless. It was not something he could control.

Rupert and Sienna finally got the blueheart blossom. The four witch mercenaries did not stop them.

With Chen Zhao around, they really did not have the courage to snatch it.

Instead, they left.

“I’m going home now.”

“Let me send you back,” Sienna said.

“Can you drive? Also… Can your car take my sneeze?”

Thinking about the repair costs, Sienna eventually withdrew the offer.

Actually, if Chen Zhao were to sneeze on her car, she could forget about the repair costs and send the car to the junkyard instead.

When Chen Zhao returned home, he did not dare to enter the bedroom.

He could not imagine what would happen if he sneezed at Fali.

Even if he sneezed in the room, he would be heartbroken.

After Chen Zhao cleaned himself, he slept on the lounger in the forecourt.

The next day…

Fali awakened Chen Zhao by tapping his cheeks.

“Chen, when did you come back last night? Why didn’t you sleep in the room?”

“I have a severe cold. I’m worried that I’ll pass it to you.”

Fali bent down and kissed Chen Zhao. “I’m not scared.”

“But I am.” Chen Zhao rubbed his nose.

“I won’t go to work today. I’ll stay with you.”

Fali was concerned about Chen Zhao’s condition. He was ill, but he slept in the forecourt for an entire night because of her. She was very touched.

“Do you want to eat something?”

“No, I don’t really have an appetite.” Chen Zhao shook his head.

“Do you want to go to the hospital?”

“Please, I’m a doctor.”

Just then, Chen Zhao’s handphone rang in the living room. Too lazy to get up, he asked the home AI to pick the call up.

“Hey, Chen, there’s a client. Are you up for it?”

“I’m ill. I’m not going out,” Chen Zhao said.

“What? You’re ill? Big news! Are you in an ICU?”
