The sky curtain makes you a useless class monitor, yet you act arbitrarily for eternity?

He propped himself up on the medicine table.

The fractured spine sent waves of excruciating pain through him, and cold sweat streamed down his face.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth.

Blood and qi surged from the body, gradually enveloping the broken spine.

The excruciating pain caused cold sweat to bead on his forehead.

He remained silent.

Once the blood and qi had temporarily stabilized his spine, Ye Chen sat up, supporting himself on the treatment table.

His body swayed a few times when his legs landed.

Ye Chen steadied himself on the edge of the table, paused for a moment, then bent down to pick up the two swords and tucked them into his waistband.

He did not alert the army doctor.

They also did not take the medication from the treatment table.

Ye Chen, barefoot and dragging his almost powerless body, tiptoed toward the door.

The military doctor is retrieving medicine from the medicine cabinet.

Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes and stopped taking the medicine.

A moment later, the medic returned to the forward tent and looked towards the door.

Outside the door, on the snow, there was a string of very shallow bloody footprints.

The military doctor examined the patient for a long time before finally sighing.

"It's better to go out..."

"It's better to go out."

the other side.

Ye Chen returned to his residence.

There was no one inside.

The walls were piled high with animal bones, demon cores, and various dismantled materials.

These items were all spoils of war he had personally hunted over the past six years.

Some bones still had flesh and blood that hadn't been scraped off completely.

Some demon cores, though covered in cracks, still emit a faint demonic power.

Ye Chen bent down and pulled an old snakeskin bag from under the bed.

He packed the animal bones and materials in one by one.

The burlap sack quickly bulged.

"Old Deng, you deadbeat."

"Screw you, kid!"

"Pah!"

"You can play by yourself."

Ye Chen stuffed the last demon core into the bag and gritted his teeth to tie it tightly.

"I'm running away!"

He slung the snakeskin bag over his shoulder and walked out of his residence, leaning against the wall for support.

His residence was right next to Ye Long's.

Ye Chen lifted the curtain and went inside.

There were no guards inside the tent.

High-level materials were placed all around.

There was a fist-sized, crimson egg, its shell covered with flame-like patterns, and each bounce of the egg could stir up a heat wave inside the tent.

Several white fruits with human face outlines were sealed in a cold jade box, their skins still gently pulsating.

There was also a section of dragon horn soaking in medicinal wine.

The dragon horn was only the length of a forearm, but the wine was stained a dark gold color, and a layer of fine dragon scales settled at the bottom of the bottle.

Ye Chen's eyes lit up immediately.

"They're all good stuff."

"Old Deng, you've been keeping a lot of secrets from me all this time."

He reached out and took it.

"I'll take this Fire Pattern Egg."

"We'll also harvest this fruit that looks like a baby."

"The dragon horns cannot be left to you either."

"You damn old bastard, you'll regret this!"

"Pah!"

The high-level materials in the tent were quickly all taken.

The snakeskin bag on Ye Chen's back was stretched even wider, and the opening could hardly be closed.

He stopped in his tracks when he reached the tent entrance.

A picture frame sits on the table.

The photo in the frame is quite old.

Young Ye Long stood in the middle.

Next to her was Ye Chen's mother.

In the photo, Ye Chen is still very young, being held in his mother's arms, while Ye Long stands beside him, his face expressionless, but his hand resting on the child's shoulder.

Ye Chen stared at the photo for a few seconds.

Everyone in the military camp knew that Ye Long liked to stare blankly at this family photo when he had nothing to do.

"Oh."

Ye Chen walked over and picked up the photo frame.

"Old Deng, you deadbeat."

"You've been training me for so many years, and you've deeply hurt my feelings!"

He stuffed the photo frame into the snakeskin bag, a cold smile creeping onto his lips.

"I'll make you taste the pain of heartbreak too!"

The burlap sack was completely filled.

Ye Chen carried it on his back, bent over, and sneakily walked towards the military camp's teleportation array.

The teleportation array is located at the northernmost part of the base.

There was no one around at that moment.

Ye Chen stood outside the formation and glanced at it twice.

Where are they?

He quickly realized what was happening.

They must have all gone to Thousand Demon Lake to save that damned old man, Deng.

Isn't this a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to run away?

Ye Chen immediately rushed to the array plate, grabbed a handful of blood-red crystals from his storage bag, and threw them all in.

The teleportation array lit up instantly.

A blinding flash of blood shot into the sky.

Ye Chen, carrying a snakeskin bag on his back, stood in the center of the array plate and held up one finger behind him.

"Old Deng, the sky's the limit! I'm not putting up with you anymore!"

The blood-red light suddenly contracted.

Ye Chen's figure disappeared into the array plate.

corner.

Several soldiers on guard collapsed at the entrance, all unconscious.

The medic stood at a distance, watching the light pillar of the teleportation array gradually dissipate, his brows slowly furrowing.

"This kid..."

"They put in so many bloodstones and even used random teleportation."

"I hope I won't die from the fall?"

next moment.

"Aaaaaahh ...

Above Changbai Mountain.

The space was forcibly torn apart.

Ye Chen fell out of it.

He carried a bulging snakeskin bag on his back, tumbling and crashing down onto the snow below from a height of tens of meters.

"Bang!"

The snow exploded.

Ye Chen was completely submerged in the snow.

A few seconds later, a head popped out of the snowdrift.

He opened his mouth and gasped for breath.

There was no nauseating smell of blood.

There was no gray sky above the military camp.

There was no longer Ye Long's face, which was always urging him to go and die.

Ye Chen looked around, his eyes gradually brightening.

This is the outside world.

He came out.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Ye Chen crawled out of the snow and laughed loudly.

"I'm out!"

"Old Deng, you keep practicing!"

He lifted his foot and walked forward.

As soon as he took a step, Ye Chen's expression suddenly changed.

Excruciating pain shot through all the wounds on my body at the same time.

He looked down.

The bandages on his body were soaked with blood, which continued to flow down his waist and abdomen.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth.

"Oh no!"

"Extremely long-distance teleportation is too much for the body to handle."

No sooner had the words left his mouth than voices came from afar.

"Hmm, I think I hear a sound up ahead."

"Is it a big insect?"

"Don't go over there, be careful first."

Ye Chen's expression changed slightly.

If someone takes me to the hospital, my identity will definitely be discovered.

In that case, all his efforts to escape by risking his life will have been in vain.

"no."

Ye Chen raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"We can't let them be taken back."

"We cannot fall."

"I need to find a safe place to heal my wounds..."

He channeled his inner energy to forcefully suppress his injuries.

The next moment, Ye Chen rushed into the forest.

Every time he landed, a trail of blood was left behind.

A broken red line appeared on the snow behind him.

The voices in the distance grew closer.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth and continued forward.

"We can't fall..."

"We can't fall..."

His gaze began to waver.

The shadows of trees, snow, and sky overlapped continuously.

Finally, Ye Chen's vision went black, and his body fell forward.

Just as he was about to crash into the snow, a pair of hands reached out from the side and caught him steadily.

The woman wore a white dress and had long, ice-blue hair that fell over her shoulders.

She looked down at the boy in her arms, her expression somewhat dazed.

next moment.

A voice that only she could hear echoed in her mind.
