"You guys are really forcing me to become stronger step by step!" Wang Xuan stood in the Su City, gazing at the clouds on the horizon, his killing intent surging!

He didn't know how Old Chen was doing, or whether he would survive. If bad news came, no matter who made the move, he would rush over and eradicate them completely!

Qian An and Old Chen maintained secret contact. There was a brief and urgent video message showing Old Chen covered in blood and seriously injured, on the run.

This is something Wang Xuan cannot accept!

Is Old Chen being chased?

"Don't worry, I'm looking into the details!" Qian An said, sharing some of the new information he had just received.

Old Chen was very cautious and did not take any air travel. However, when he was less than 300 miles from Su City, a spaceship "crashed," like Comet Impact the earth, and swooped down towards him.

Upon learning of this situation, Wang Xuan's pupils contracted and he clenched his fists.

New Star has its own rules, under normal circumstances it is not allowed to use superweapons to fire on its own territory, otherwise, once a conflict breaks out, it will have catastrophic consequences.

Indeed, no one has broken the rules and no one has used warships or other weapons to kill Old Chen.

"The spaceship must have been 'crashed'!" Wang Xuan's face was cold, and his killing intent intensified.

Those people went to extreme lengths to kill Old Chen, even more so than using super weapons to bombard him.

Wang Xuan prepared to leave the city to meet Old Chen.

"Little Wang, Old Chen is not dead. I briefly reconnected with him through the secret line just now, but his condition is not optimistic. His injuries are very serious, and there is a mysterious powerful figure chasing him." Qian An contacted Wang Xuan again.

"Mr. Qian, could you do me a favor and send me Old Chen's exact coordinates?" Wang Xuan said calmly.

Qian An said in a deep voice, "Little Wang, you must not be impulsive. Even Old Chen is in trouble. If you rush over there, you will only get yourself into trouble for nothing."

He told Wang Xuan to stay calm, and that he had already tried to pull strings to see if he could contact the relevant parties and talk to them in order to save Old Chen.

Wang Xuan said, "Please pass on a message for me: if you want me to Extend Life, I can! But the condition is that you immediately stop chasing Old Chen!"

Wang Xuan stepped out of Su City and, based on the information he had obtained earlier, headed in one direction. He believed that if Old Chen was alive, he would also flee towards Su City.

Now that some people suspect he is a superhuman, he has nothing left to hide. In order to save Old Chen, he will fully display his strength and wipe out those people!

Some time later, Qian An called again and said, "Little Wang, I asked someone to bail out Old Chen, but it seems they ignored me. They only mentioned you... that you won't die."

Wang Xuan took a deep breath. These people spared him to Extend Life? What were they thinking!

He admitted that this group of people were powerful and ruthless, but they were so arrogant that after killing Old Chen, they still wanted him to bow down and help them maintain their health.

Of course, he didn't believe everyone completely. The situation was complicated; the real enemy hadn't yet surfaced, and he couldn't completely trust anyone.

Immediately afterwards, Qian An informed Old Chen of the latest news, saying, "Old Chen is approaching Su City; he is coughing up blood."

Old Chen, despite being seriously injured, managed to run two hundred miles.

At this moment, Wang Xuan raised his powerful spiritual domain to its limit, his brow glowing, surrounded by wondrous sights, and headed towards a certain direction.

Just moments later, he sensed a familiar presence. Qian An's information was correct; Old Chen, covered in blood, appeared.

He fled incredibly fast, as if flying close to the ground, his footsteps cracking the ground beneath him. He used all his strength, running recklessly.

Wang Xuan's heart sank. Old Chen's shoulder was torn, one arm was almost falling off, his eyes were unfocused, and he was only holding on by his strong will.

Physical injuries are nothing. As long as there are no permanent disabilities, Old Chen has the Earth Immortal Spring within the Blessed Land Fragment on his body, which he can use to slowly recover.

But why is his spirit so low, as if he's about to fall apart?

Wang Xuan immediately greeted Old Chen.

At this moment, Old Chen seemed to have exhausted his last bit of strength. His eyes were becoming increasingly unfocused, and he managed to utter a few words: "Be careful... of the rare treasure!"

Then, he collapsed and his eyes closed.

Wang Xuan poured several mouthfuls of the Earth Immortal Spring into his mouth, sprinkled some on his wounds, carried him on his back, and held a short sword, facing into the distance.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a hovercar plummeted from a height of over ten meters, hurtling towards Wang Xuan at breakneck speed.

He was furious. They kept using this tactic, and now a hovercar that had flown by had "crashed"—were they trying to control everything?!

In general, the power of this hovering vehicle swooping down is far less than that of a spaceship; its deterrent effect is much greater.

Is this a demonstration of their control over the New Star? Or do they genuinely believe he is merely a grandmaster?

Wang Xuan's eyes were cold and piercing. He didn't perform an exaggerated aerial maneuver, but simply dodged away at just the right moment, carrying Old Chen away from the area.

He glanced back but couldn't spot the mysterious pursuer. Old Chen had run too fast over the mountains and valleys and had temporarily shaken off his pursuers.

Wang Xuan carried Old Chen into Su City; treating his injuries was the more important task.

Many people on the street turned their heads to look at him, but he ignored them and led Old Chen into the "Health Preservation Hall" to carefully examine his injuries.

Even a superhuman like him has many wounds on his body, caused by the massive explosion during the spaceship's dive. An ordinary person would have certainly died.

When the spaceship crashed, it violently struck the ground, and the impact area was so wide that even the most skilled person would find it difficult to escape and would be turned to ashes.

Old Chen avoided the central area and rushed out, but he was still struck by the energy beams and was covered in blood.

Of course, the most serious injury came from a cold weapon; one of his arms was almost severed, which proved that a superhuman had also intervened.

None of these are fatal; given Old Chen's constitution, he'll be fine after a period of rest.

What puzzled Wang Xuan was that Old Chen was in a daze; his mental state had been affected.

"He reminded me that the other party possessed a rare treasure, and that the attack was caused by some kind of treasure?" Wang Xuan's expression turned solemn.

In an instant, his spirit left his body. Although there might be pursuers coming, his physical body was right beside him, so he wasn't worried about anything going wrong.

In fact, in a sense, after the spirit separates from the body, his range of perception is wider, and he can detect enemy movements further in advance.

Now his main task is to investigate what exactly is wrong with Old Chen's mental state.

Sure enough, under his Spiritual Heavenly Eye, nothing could hide. Three dark red arrows were embedded in Old Chen's spiritual domain.

This shocked him deeply; it was the first time he had encountered something like this, and he was truly hurt by a treasure!

Those were not physical Arrow Feather, but a strange energy embedded in the spiritual realm. Upon closer inspection, the arrow was engraved with special symbols.

"Old Chen, can you hear me?" Wang Xuan didn't dare to move rashly and tried to wake him up.

There was not a ripple in that spiritual realm; Old Chen was even more silent than if he were in a deep sleep, and could not be awakened by any calls.

Wang Xuan stretched out his mind, trying to pull out one of the dark red arrows, but he sensed danger as soon as he got close.

He had a premonition that if he touched that small arrow and pulled it out, it might explode!

Is it really this troublesome? Wang Xuan's spirit returned to his body, his brows furrowed deeply.

"They're here!"

Have the people chasing Old Chen arrived yet? Wang Xuan sensed that someone was spying on him.

Although the location of the Health Preservation Hall is far from the most bustling area, there are still quite a few pedestrians on the road.

The man didn't make a move immediately; he smiled, turned, and left.

Without a doubt, he will return; he simply doesn't want to display his supernatural powers and extraordinary strength in broad daylight.

Wang Xuan could sense that this person was not weak and that a dangerous aura emanated from him. It was highly likely that the strange treasure had made him wary, and that thing could threaten him.

"Little Wang, how is Old Chen? Did you carry him into the city?" Qian An called, quite surprised.

"He was injured." Wang Xuan didn't say more.

"I'll send the best doctor over."

"Thank you, but no need!" Wang Xuan politely declined.

Half an hour later, Zhong Qing and her brother called, both seemingly deeply moved.

"Chen the Supernatural was seriously injured?"

The Zhong family is indeed extraordinary; even they, as the younger generation, have received the news, which shows that the matter has spread within certain circles.

Indeed, the extraordinary one was defeated. This news spread quickly within their circle, sparking discussion among relevant groups in a very short time.

"Little Wang, word has spread that Old Chen isn't going to make it. Even if he's miraculously alive, they won't let him go. Do you need our help? We can send someone to pick you up..."

Zhong Cheng is a true friend. Although he doesn't have much say in his family now, he was overcome with passion and wanted to save Wang Xuan and Chen Yongjie.

Zhong Qing said, "I'll try to persuade my family. However, my great-grandfather hasn't woken up yet, so my family is prioritizing stability and probably doesn't want to provoke any relevant parties. Once my great-grandfather wakes up, he will also be an extraordinary person, and this is a sensitive time."

She hadn't forgotten that Wang Xuan had saved her life in the secret place, searched for her in the dead of night, and pulled her out of the swamp.

"Not for now, I appreciate your kindness!" Wang Xuan hung up the phone.

Soon, Zhou Yun also contacted him. He still admired Old Chen very much, but he learned that Old Chen was seriously injured and might die.

"My grandfather said that those people will most likely not allow Old Chen to live and will act swiftly and decisively to demonstrate their power. But they will spare your life and take you away." He whispered some information to Wang Xuan in Secret Language.

The extraordinary has been defeated, and the damage is brewing!

It caused quite a stir in certain circles, and many people are waiting for the final curtain to fall.

After hanging up the phone, Wang Xuan sat there calmly, adjusting himself to his best state, and stroked the cold short sword with his hand.

Not long after the sun set, while there were still pedestrians on the road, the mysterious man arrived.

As long as it's not during the busiest time of day, all his actions and their consequences are easy to clean up, as the power behind him is extremely strong.

"The extraordinary one was defeated? But the person who came was also an extraordinary one..." Wang Xuan sat in the room.

However, the fact that they can command superhumans is enough to demonstrate the power and terror of those forces.

A man dressed in black walked from the end of the road, carrying a lamp in his hand. The lamp was etched with the marks of time and had a mottled, ancient feel. The wick emitted a dark red flame.

"Extraordinary treasures, the tycoons have unearthed too many good things. I used to only focus on the scriptures they collected, but now it seems I've overlooked an important aspect: they've also unearthed some great treasures!" Wang Xuan reflected.

In the modern society of New Star, the man is dressed in retro style. It is pitch black all around, and all the streetlights are off. Only the ancient lamp in his hand illuminates his cold and stiff face.

Even from a distance of over a hundred meters, the ancient lamp in the man's hand emitted a hazy glow. The Arrow Feather markings engraved on the lamp seemed to come alive, and after being infused with dark red fire, a beam of light shot outwards.

A small, dark red arrow flew swiftly toward the Health Preservation Hall!

"It's all coming to an end. The extraordinary will either bow down or die. No one can be above the rules we set. The extraordinary have lost!" someone said from afar.

At the same time, countless tiny detectors transformed into insects and flew towards the Health Preservation Hall, wanting to record everything.
