Chen Ran saw Han Sen pull out a crossbow and pointed it at him. He looked at him with disdain and said, "I thought you had something powerful up your sleeve. Is this all you have?"
Chen Ran had been in the Second God's Sanctuary for a long time, and he had seen all sorts of good things. He had even seen sacred-blood crossbows and sacred-blood arrows.
Things like that were useless to him. If it had been a bow and arrow, Chen Ran would have been worried. Bows and arrows relied on manpower, and they could be imbued with special powers.
But a crossbow was a weapon that relied on the power of the crossbow itself. Even if it was a sacred-blood crossbow and a sacred-blood arrow, it was nothing in the eyes of an elite like Chen Ran.
Chen Ran did not stop there. He continued to swing his sword towards Han Sen, and he increased the power behind it.
Pang!
Han Sen pulled the trigger and fired. A black light flashed, and the raven feather arrow was right in front of Chen Ran's face.
Chen Ran's face paled. He did not expect a simple crossbow to be so fast. The distance between them was too short, and even if he was very good, he would not be able to dodge the arrow in time.
But Chen Ran was a scary character from the older generation. His reaction was quick, and he swung his sword towards the black arrow.
Dong!
The blade of the Yanfeather sword struck the tip of the arrow. The berserk sacred-blood class Yanfeather sword was broken in half. Half of the broken sword and the arrow were sent flying away. Chen Ran's body was forced back, and his legs left a three-meter-long trench in the ground.
Blergh!
Chen Ran coughed up a mouthful of blood. He looked at the arrow in Han Sen's hand in shock. He could not believe that a single arrow could be so powerful.
Han Sen, seeing that his arrow had not killed Chen Ran, did not hesitate. He pulled the trigger again, and another black arrow was fired towards Chen Ran.
Chen Ran roared, and the cloud around his body expanded. His entire body was enveloped by the cloud, and in a flash, he leaped into the air and dodged the arrow.
"The Chen Family's Heaven-Shaking Seven Twists is truly powerful."
Han Sen complimented Chen Ran in his heart, but he did not stop firing. He fired a barrage of bullets at Chen Ran, not giving him a chance to escape.
Chen Ran thought that after dodging the arrow, he would be able to escape. The crossbow was too scary, and he did not know what had caused it to be so powerful. He did not dare to fight back.
But the crossbow in Han Sen's hand was like a handgun. It kept firing arrows like crazy. Chen Ran, seeing the sky full of black arrows, was dumbfounded.
If crying was of any use, Chen Ran would be crying in front of Han Sen.
Gritting his teeth, Chen Ran leaped into the air like a strange bird. His movements were magical, and he was more agile than a real bird.
But no matter how heaven-defying he was, he couldn't dodge so many crossbow bolts. He only managed to dodge four of them, but he couldn't dodge the rest.
Bang!
Bang!
Chen Ran used his power to deflect two of the bolts, but he was also shaken by the force of the arrows. He couldn't control his body anymore.
In the next second, four more black arrows pierced his body. His sacred-blood armor could not withstand the power of the raven arrows, and they pierced right through it.
The powerful force sent Chen Ran flying a few dozen meters. He was pinned to the side of the mountain.
Huang Mian roared and rushed forward. Han Sen fired an arrow at him.
There was a pang sound, and Huang Mian's greatsword was broken. The raven arrow did not stop there, and it went straight through his right arm.
Huang Mian did not stop there. It was as if it wasn't his arm that had been broken. He used his other fist to punch Han Sen in the face.
"Then what did Chen Ran offer you?
Is it worth it for you to risk your life for him? "Han Sen took a step back and dodged Huang Mian's fist.
Huang Mian's fist skills were far inferior to his sword skills. He was no threat to Han Sen.
"He saved my life. I have to pay him back." Huang Mian gritted his teeth and threw another punch.
"Then I'll let you pay." Han Sen slapped Huang Mian's head. Huang Mian's eyes rolled back, and he fell to the ground.
The rest of the group was scared out of their wits and began to run for their lives. For someone like Chen Ran to be killed by a crossbow bolt, they all wished they had been born with two legs. They all ran as fast as they could, in fear that the black bolt would come for them as well.
They could not imagine how such a scary crossbow could exist. It was like a handgun, and it was so powerful. It was too overpowered.
Han Sen was too lazy to chase after the small fries. He went straight for Chen Ran, who was still pinned to the mountain wall.
Chen Ran's body had been pierced by four of the arrows, but he was not dead yet. He struggled to pull the arrows out of his body, but they were like thorns. If he tried to pull them out, the flesh, bones, and even organs would be shredded to pieces.
"Chen Ran, Chen Ran! Why are you doing this?"
Han Sen smiled as he stood in front of Chen Ran. He looked at the half-dead Chen Ran and sighed.
"Han Sen, if you kill me, the Chen family will make sure you die a horrible death!" Chen Ran screamed.
But the blood that came out of his mouth made him look less powerful. It made him look even worse.
"I don't want to kill you. How about this? Tell me the secret of Seven Twists, and I will let you live," Han Sen said with a smile.
Chen Ran's mouth was full of blood, but he laughed and said, "Kid, when Grandpa Chen tricked people, your father wasn't even born yet. You want to play this game with me?
Bah! "
Chen Ran spat out a mouthful of blood onto Han Sen's face. He gritted his teeth, and the blood in his mouth turned black. Then, Chen Ran's heartbeat stopped. He was dead.
Han Sen checked Chen Ran's body, and there was no sign of life.
Han Sen looked at Chen Ran's dead body in shock. He did not expect the old fox to have such a bloody side to him. He had taken his own life with poison.
"People from aristocratic families really can't be underestimated. This kind of determination and loyalty is really too terrifying."
Han Sen thought for a moment, then lit a fire. He wanted to burn Chen Ran's body. That way, even if the Chen family came to find him, there would be no evidence.
Plus, it would be a good deed. He would not let Chen Ran's body rot in the wild.
But before Han Sen could light the fire on Chen Ran, the dead Chen Ran raised his head and said, "No, no, no! Let's talk this over. Don't you want Seven Twists?
I'll give it to you. "
Han Sen stared at Chen Ran with his mouth open, and it took him a while to recover from the shock.
After a while, Han Sen cursed under his breath. "F * ck your loyalty. I can't believe I believed this old fox had any sort of loyalty. I must be crazy."
