Liu Guang was completely furious. When had he ever suffered such humiliation?
“You dare hit me? You actually dare hit me?”
“I’m going to report you to the school! To the Spirit Martial Association! To…”
A flash of cold light grazed Liu Guang’s cheek, leaving a bloody scratch!
It buried itself into the truck’s metal wall!
Liu Guang’s voice cut off instantly. His face turned deathly pale as he swallowed hard.
Clearly, Jiang Nan could do far more than just slap him!
At that moment everyone panicked. Were they really this ruthless?
Jiang Nan half-opened his eyes. “Calm now?”
“I don’t blame you for abandoning Zhou Yuqing and her friend. Your abilities are limited, survival comes first!”
“But you led the Black Wind Wolves back on purpose, planning to use their lives to buy time for yourselves. Am I wrong?”
The last shred of cover was ripped away. Liu Guang’s face became hideous.
Even the students at the back of the truck lowered their heads, avoiding eye contact!
“I… I just took the wrong direction. I didn’t…”
Jiang Nan grew impatient. “Stop pretending with me!”
“Are you a man? Do you know what a man’s shoulders are for? Bearing the responsibilities you ought to bear!”
“In a spirit ruin, the only people you can trust are your teammates! Today you abandon them to save your own skin!”
“If one day you were the injured one and they left you for the wolves, how would you feel?”
“Never do to others what you would not have them do to you. Did you never learn that?”
Liu Guang clenched his teeth, face alternating between green and white, unable to utter a single retort!
Jiang Nan stood on the roof. “Kid! Don’t walk your path so narrow!”
“Before you become a proper spirit warrior, learn how to be a decent human being first!”
“Pah! You’re nothing!”
The others also lowered their heads, picking at their fingers, guilt written all over their faces!
Back inside the cab, Jiang Nan pursed his lips.
They were still students, newly awakened spirit warriors, young!
Their characters weren’t set yet. Some flaws could still be fixed!
That was why he had patiently lectured them with big principles!
Otherwise he would have long since slapped them silly!
Zhong Yingxue sat in the passenger seat, eyes sparkling as she looked at Jiang Nan and squeezed his little hand!
“Xiao Nan! You were a tiny bit handsome just now!”
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes!
“Nonsense! Am I not this handsome every single day?”
Zhong Yingxue: (⇀‸↼‶)
In the back row, Zhou Yuqing couldn’t help giggling, feeling warmth in her heart!
The truck rumbled through the jungle. This time it no longer deliberately drove into the thickest trees!
Everyone gave a bitter laugh. So he really had done it on purpose!
Was he punishing us and teaching us a proper lesson?
After driving for just over half an hour, Zhou Yuqing’s brows furrowed.
“Big Brother Jiang Nan! Two o’clock direction! Around 1300 metres! Three people, they don’t look like students!”
Jiang Nan was stunned. That precise?
She could detect them from over a thousand metres away in the middle of a jungle?
Even my radar garlic only reaches 1000 metres!
“Right! I still haven’t asked what ability you awakened!”
Zhou Yuqing smiled sweetly. “Sonic ability! I can use echolocation like a dolphin!”
Jiang Nan froze. A human radar?
That awesome?
If they weren’t students, they must be civilian spirit warriors!
Jiang Nan was just thinking of going to pick them up and rescue them together!
But the three were already approaching!
Leading them was a burly bald man with a face full of scars, wearing a fisherman’s vest.
Behind him was a tall, thin youth in a windbreaker.
And a tall, curvaceous woman with wavy hair.
All three looked extremely battered and terrified right now!
“Hah! It really is a truck! I told you I heard right!”
“And a Unimog no less?”
“Big bro! With a truck we can…”
Vest Big Bro raised an eyebrow. “Little brother! Let’s make a deal. Sell me this truck, yeah?”
“Once we’re out of the spirit ruin I’ll wire you one million!”
Jiang Nan looked at Vest Big Bro like he was an idiot!
“You’re ugly as hell, yet your fantasies are beautiful!”
“Where’s your face? Left it at home?”
This truck alone cost nearly four million! With the eight-wheel armoured conversion added? One million for the wheels?
[Resentment from Ma Dalong +1000!]
You can say my fantasies are beautiful!
But you can’t say I’m ugly!
The windbreaker youth raged. “Big bro! Why waste words? Only two gold-one! Take him!”
Wavy-hair woman: “Ma bro! Second bro already died in there! If we don’t get that thing out, we’ll lose everything!”
Ma Dalong pressed both hands down!
He smirked. “Little brother! Looks like you know nothing about the power of money!”
“No questions! I’ll name a price! Three million!”
“Immediately get everyone off the truck nice and quick! Leave the keys in!”
At this moment the students in the back grew nervous, palms sweating!
Jiang Nan calmly opened the door, stepped out, and grinned!
“That joke was pretty high-level! Gotta say, you cracked me up!”
“How about this! I give you a big gold brick! Then I give you the truck, and I’ll even fill the tank for you, how’s that?”
As he spoke he pulled a huge gold brick from his pocket and weighed it in his hand!
Instantly the windbreaker youth and wavy-hair woman’s eyes lit up!
A gold brick? For real? That huge?
Ma Dalong swallowed. “Seriously? You’re that generous? You messing with me?”
Jiang Nan beamed. “You started the joke first!”
[Resentment from Ma Dalong +1000!]
[From Ma…]
With one stomp, countless earth spikes shot up from all sides, surrounding the truck!
The windbreaker youth instantly turned into a metal man!
Countless water spikes formed around the wavy-hair woman. The atmosphere instantly turned tense!
Zhong Yingxue’s pretty face chilled. “All hands on alert!”
Ma Dalong grinned ferociously. “One last chance! Leave the brick and the truck! Get lost!”
“Don’t even think about fighting! There’s a bunch of brats on board! It’d be bad if they got hurt. This is a spirit ruin, a few deaths mean nothing!”
Jiang Nan looked utterly fed up. “I’ll count to three! Get on the truck yourselves! Stop making trouble for me!”
Ma Dalong snarled. “You won’t take a toast, only a forfeit! Atta…”
*BOOM!*
A huge gold brick flew through a space wormhole and smashed straight into Ma Dalong’s forehead!
The massive force sent him sprawling!
The windbreaker youth roared in fury. “Ma bro! You stinking brat, I’ll kill you!”
Jiang Nan didn’t even look back. “Spatial barrier! Cage!”
Six spatial walls instantly formed, trapping the windbreaker youth inside!
His body was squeezed so tight he couldn’t move!
The wavy-hair woman panicked and fired countless water arrows at Jiang Nan!
Zhong Yingxue stamped her little foot!
“Sea of Flames!”
A ten-metre-high wave of fire surged forth. The scorching heat instantly vaporised the water arrows!
The wavy-hair woman was blasted more than ten metres away, her big waves burnt into a chicken-nest mess!
Jiang Nan held Ma Dalong by the throat with one hand, void chains wrapping his whole body, gold brick in the other!
“Blood Burn! Eight Gates of Dunjia, seventh gate Shock! Open!”
*BOOM!*
One brick smashed straight into Ma Dalong’s head!
His face became covered in blood, skull ringing!
“Arghhh! Stop! Stop hitting!”
[Resentment from Ma Dalong +1000!]
[From Ma…]
Jiang Nan swung the brick wildly!
“Feel it? This is the power of money!”
*WHAM!*
“Enough force for you! Enough strength?”
*WHAM! WHAM!*
“You dared threaten me with them? You dared make trouble? You know nothing about the power of money!”
*WHAM! WHAM! WHAM!*
Jiang Nan beat Ma Dalong until he howled, the ground shaking, a huge crater forming beneath!
Zhong Yingxue stood in front of Jiang Nan, blocking everyone’s view, smiling sweetly!
“Little friends, don’t look! The next scene will give you nightmares tonight!”
Right now the students in the truck were pale as ghosts, gulping!
Those brick hits were too brutal, too bloody, too violent!
Liu Guang sat in the back, face green with terror, trembling non-stop!
He had actually dared to shout at Jiang Nan earlier?
He had walked right up to the gates of hell. If he weren’t a student, he would already be Ma Dalong right now!
Chicken-nest girl was crying in fright. From her angle, Ma bro was already kicking his legs! He was gold-eight!
The windbreaker youth’s teeth chattered. He was completely docile now!
Ma Dalong: “Stop stop! I’ll talk! I’ll say everything!”
Jiang Nan kept swinging the brick!
“I didn’t ask you anything! Why are you talking? I just purely want to hit you!”
Ma Dalong: “Pwah! Spirit core! Don’t you want the spirit core? I’ll tell you everything!”
“Stop hitting! I already understand the power of money!”
Jiang Nan paused. Spirit core?
These guys wanted the truck to haul a spirit core?
“Hm! Good! I’ll keep hitting while you talk!”
[Resentment from Ma Dalong +1000!]
