Worldwide Class Change: An Invincible Swordsman

Chapter 554: Chapter 553, Cautious Jiang Long_1

As expected.

Not long after Jiang Long finished speaking, about fifteen minutes later, a Wanderer came over and smiled, "Brother, I’m hungry too. Can you share some meat with me?"

Jiang Chen: ?????

Jiang Long and the others remained silent, watching to see how Jiang Chen would respond...

Jiang Chen turned and said, "No."

"Brother, I’m really hungry. Please have pity on me!"

"She had a limp; you don’t."

"What if I did have a limp?"

Jiang Chen laughed. "If you were crippled, I would give you some..."

What do you mean? You can’t possibly cripple yourself, can you?

In the very next second...

CRACK...

The woman actually crippled her own leg on the spot.

Jiang Long: ????

Jiang Chen: ????

Unfazed, the woman said, "See? I’m crippled now. Shouldn’t you share some meat with me?"

Jiang Chen turned around, his face a picture of shock.

Damn it, are you crazy? You crippled yourself just for some meat?

Jiang Chen casually handed over two pounds of meat.

You’re ruthless...

The woman smiled. "Thank you. My name is Situ Chunyu."

As soon as she finished speaking, she ran off like the wind.

Jiang Chen was left disheveled in the wind...

Everyone burst into hearty laughter.

He was conned!

This woman wasn’t limping at all; she ran faster than a damn rabbit!

Jiang Long chuckled. "She has cultivated a kind of Martial Art that allows her to dislocate her muscles and bones, creating the illusion of being crippled. That’s why you were tricked."

"I actually thought she’d crippled herself for the meat!"

"Did you think she was an idiot? Here, aside from needing to conserve True Qi, you can’t get injured. Once you are, recovery is very difficult."

"Don’t let your sympathy run wild again. Lucky for you, we had a surplus of meat today; otherwise, you would be starving."

Jiang Chen laughed. "I really didn’t expect that."

"You still have much more to learn!"

「The next morning.」

Having finished hundreds of pounds of meat the previous day, the five of them felt full of energy, and their True Qi had significantly increased. They headed back to the same location as the day before.

According to Jiang Long, killing the Abnormal Beasts yesterday would have spread their blood scent, surely attracting more. So, as expected, there would be new Abnormal Beasts where they had hunted.

I wonder what kind they’ll be! But there would definitely be some nearby.

Soon, they arrived at the site of yesterday’s battle.

The bones on the snow had disappeared, but some bloodstains still remained.

Jiang Long said, "There’s still the scent of blood in the air. We can wait here, and new Abnormal Beasts are likely to show up."

The others agreed with Jiang Long’s plan.

They found a spot upwind and hid themselves, waiting for their prey.

An hour later...

A Python appeared in the distance. Coiling its body, it approached from not far away, nearly twenty meters in length...

SWISH SWISH...

Jiang Long said, "Here it comes. This is a Mang Beast. It’s not very strong—much weaker than yesterday’s White Bear—but it also has less meat."

Jiang Yan said, "It’s enough. Don’t forget, we ate a lot of meat yesterday. That should last us for several days."

"Get ready. Once the Python gets close, we’ll strike immediately."

The Python slithered towards where the White Bear had died, sniffing the blood scent in the air.

Jiang Long immediately made his move. Wielding his Broad blade, he charged and hacked wildly at the Python, killing it in a single strike.

Jiang Chen didn’t even have a chance to take action.

Without a word, Jiang Long chopped the Python into five sections...

Today was another bountiful day...

However, they did not return to their base. Instead, they started barbecuing in the wild.

Jiang Long explained, "We have to be careful even on snowy days. Carrying back several hundred pounds of meat yesterday definitely caught others’ attention."

"If we return early today, it will draw even more attention."

"By the third day, Wanderers will surely be following us here to hunt."

"This is a natural hunting ground. We can’t let them know about it."

"And we can’t let them find out about our tools either."

"Otherwise, word will spread, and then hunting here will become troublesome."

Despite his bulky figure, Jiang Long was incredibly cautious. He wouldn’t easily let others know his secrets, especially about this natural hunting ground.

When Jiang Long killed the Python, he deliberately spilled its blood on the ground. As expected, they could continue hunting Abnormal Beasts the next day. The scent of blood would surely attract others.

Jiang Yan said, "Jiang Chen, you’ve just arrived. We need to teach you how to survive in this icy wilderness."

"I know."

"Kind-hearted people don’t last long here."

"Still medium-rare?"

"Don’t you want to try? Actually, medium-rare meat is not only delicious but also increases Killing intent."

Jiang Long shook his head. "Better not. That’s what deranged people do when they want to quickly upgrade their Realm. You stick to refining your Killing intent."

Jiang Chen felt helpless. Why won’t you guys just try it? The taste really is good.

Jiang Chen ate the snake meat. The flavor was different, with a strong, rank smell.

The others kept their distance, watching him eat. It’s way too bloody for them.

After filling their stomachs, they immediately began circulating their mental methods...

[Absorbing Killing intent 0.01 point, hundredfold increase successful, adding 1 point of Killing intent...]

[Absorbing Killing intent 0.01 point, hundredfold increase successful, adding 1 point of Killing intent...]

[Ding... Operate 0.7 True Qi... hundredfold increase successful, gained 70 points of True Qi]

[Ding... Operate 0.7 True Qi... hundredfold increase successful, gained 70 points of True Qi]

[Ding... Operate 0.7 True Qi... hundredfold increase successful, gained 70 points of True Qi]

...

Once they finished refining the meat, they ate more.

They quickly ate through a large portion of the dozens of pounds of meat.

Only then did the five of them return to their base.

They exchanged for lumber and then continued to sit to one side, cultivating.

THUMP THUMP THUMP...

Li Anqin came over and said coldly, "This is the meat I’m returning to you."

Jiang Chen smiled. "I lent you one pound, and you’re returning two? It seems like you got the short end of this deal."

"It’s not the same."

"Okay then!"

Jiang Chen took the meat, and Li Anqin turned to leave...

She still walked with a limp.

Jiang Long said, "She’s actually quite nice, Little Bro. If you ever feel lonely, empty, or cold, you could try dating her. It wouldn’t matter if you separate later."

"Forget it. I’m not interested."

"Er... Little Bro, do you have some sort of... physical problem?"

"No."

"’No?’ I seriously suspect you do. Coincidentally, we have a lot of meat today. Let’s skip cultivation. I’ll take you to the tavern to have a look, let you experience... OUCH..."

SLAP...

Jiang Yan slapped him and snapped, "I think *you’re* the one who wants to go!"

Jiang Long rubbed his face, looking troubled. "No, I’m just trying to help Little Bro become a man."

"What do you mean by taking Little Bro to such a filthy place?"

"Actually..."

"Actually what?"

Jiang Long wanted to say, Actually, it’s not that dirty! Isn’t it just trading meat for meat? It’s a fair exchange.
