CHAPTER 453: CHAPTER 149: [YOU’RE JUST AN INSECT]

Even after a moment, seeing the Monster Leader had already rushed out of the forest, Chen Yan didn’t hurry. Instead, he slowly took off his backpack, holding it with one hand.

His steps remained steady, following one after another, trailing behind the Monster Leader.

·

After rushing out of the forest, the Monster Leader quickly ran onto the ice of a small river. But after running ten steps, he stumbled and fell on the ice.

After struggling a few times, the Monster Leader got back up, but when he turned his head and saw Chen Yan, with a faint smile on his face, walking out of the forest...

His heart panicked, and he fell to the ground again.

The roles of pursuer and pursued had completely reversed!

·

The Monster Leader was running... but he wasn’t running fast, staggering, his body swaying, unable to even run in a straight line.

Chen Yan followed steadily behind.

Along the way, he even saw the corpse of a monster lying on the ice—it was that archer.

Chen Yan even walked over and took the bow and arrows from the corpse.

With the bow and arrow in hand, Chen Yan followed behind the Monster Leader, like a hunting beast, seeing its prey already injured, running slower and slower.

Yet he maintained sufficient patience and caution!

Finally, the Monster Leader in front was running slower and slower, shouting and hollering.

Chen Yan listened carefully and discerned that this guy was loudly calling for help—he must be hoping that a companion in the village could find and follow them here.

Chen Yan sneered, drawing his bow and nocking an arrow.

Whoosh!

The first arrow, as expected, went wide.

Chen Yan wasn’t annoyed, quickly sensing the feel and strength from just now, adjusting his force.

Whoosh!

The second arrow also missed, but Chen Yan nodded in satisfaction.

Although this arrow missed, the trajectory of the arrow was closer to the Monster Leader’s body than before.

Chen Yan took a deep breath, adjusting again according to the previous feeling.

The third arrow!

The fourth arrow!

The fifth arrow!

Despite five consecutive misses, Chen Yan showed no trace of impatience in his expression.

He even didn’t understand why he could remain so calm.

Since childhood, he had this personality—the more situations arose, the calmer he became.

But today, at this moment, being this calm made Chen Yan feel a bit strange even to himself.

However, he shook his head and raised his bow again.

Whoosh!

Thud!

With a wretched cry, the Monster Leader in front collapsed to the ground.

The sixth arrow finally hit him.

The spot hit wasn’t great, striking the man’s waist.

And the force seemed inadequate, failing to penetrate, merely lodging in his waist; by visual estimation, the arrowhead didn’t pierce deeply.

Chen Yan shook his head, having run out of arrows. He casually threw away the bow, drew his blade once again, and slowly walked over.

The Monster Leader lay sprawled on the ground, still struggling to crawl forward, but Chen Yan approached and stepped on his back.

Then, Chen Yan grabbed the arrow lodged in his waist and thrust it further in!

Thud! Pushed directly into the depths!!

"Ah!!!!"

The Monster Leader let out a wretched scream; the intense pain gave him a burst of strength. As the strongest warrior in the Fierce Beast Race’s village, his solid foundation allowed him to muster a final burst of power, surprisingly managing to throw Chen Yan off his back!

However, Chen Yan held tightly onto the arrow!

As Chen Yan was flipped over, his hand still gripped the arrow... with a thunk, the arrow was directly pulled out by Chen Yan!

Chen Yan held the arrow and rolled swiftly to the side.

And the Monster Leader on the ground, with a gaping wound in his waist, was bleeding profusely, taking away his last strength.

Chen Yan exhaled, casually tossing the arrow aside, grabbing his blade and creeping forward before flipping and mounting the Monster Leader’s back.

At this moment, the calmness and indifference on Chen Yan’s face finally disappeared.

His eyes revealed a trace of Evil Qi and ferocity!

Chen Yan gritted his teeth, slowly leaning down, his face close to the Monster Leader’s ear.

"Remember, I am not your slave! And today, I realized that you are nothing but a cowardly... bug!"

Bug—the Fierce Beast Race’s most vicious insult!

The Monster Leader made gurgling sounds from his mouth, unable to speak.

After speaking, Chen Yan extended his hand around from behind to the front of the Monster Leader’s throat, clutching his head and lifting it, exposing his throat.

His other hand, holding the blade, pressed against his throat.

Then, with a forceful slash!

Blood sprayed out, splattering across the ice...

Chen Yan took a long breath, sitting up straight, just sitting on the Monster Leader’s corpse.

He brought his blood-stained arm close to his nose and sniffed it.

"Gu Qingyi was right... the blood is indeed warm."

·

Chen Yan sat on the Monster Leader’s corpse, resting for a few minutes.

His mood was unexpectedly calm.

It seemed that the previously surging Evil Qi, ferocity, and rage... had all been released with the blade slicing into the Monster Leader’s throat.

Everything returned to calmness.

A few minutes later, Chen Yan’s breathing steadied, and he stood up, kicking the Monster Leader’s corpse lightly, then chuckling softly.

Even Chen Yan didn’t know why he could laugh at such a moment.
