656: Chapter 654: The Tyrant’s Reincarnation 656: Chapter 654: The Tyrant’s Reincarnation Chen Yang walked back from the front, and as he reached the iron chest he prepared to start lifting it.
But before he could touch it, Wang Ping stepped forward, blocking his path.
“Chen Yang, brother, don’t be hotheaded.
Let us handle this.
We’re already grateful you led the way; how could we have the audacity to ask you to help carry as well?” Wang Ping tried to play peacemaker, not wanting the conflict to escalate further.
The experts standing by, upon seeing that things between the two were getting serious, also began to stand up to dissuade them.
“Young friend Chen Yang, don’t be angry.
Ma Lao San is just like that—blunt and straightforward.
Don’t stoop to his level.”
Chen Yang wasn’t soone who sought the lilight; hearing these people trying to diate, he thought about letting it go.
He didn’t want to quarrel with Ma Lao San; it was aningless.
But before he could speak, Ma Lao San imdiately retorted, “Brother Wang!
Don’t you all side with this kid.
I know he ca to help us, but what does he an by speaking without a care?”
“We’ve all toiled to carry these up the mountain—is our sweat that cheap?
Is talking that easy?”
Ma Lao San, never one to submit or give in easily, acted as though Chen Yang had severely wronged him.
After saying this, he looked at Chen Yang with a full face of provocation: “You sure talked big, didn’t you?
Today, take my place carrying this.
I won’t ask for anything more—just take it a thousand steps, and I’ll bow and apologize right here and now.
Do you dare?”
When Ma Lao San spoke, he shouted, his attitude extrely arrogant.
Facing such behavior, Chen Yang just frowned, his expression not changing much.
“This is your own challenge; don’t regret it later.”
Chen Yang responded calmly.
“Ha ha ha.” Ma Lao San burst into laughter: “Don’t worry, Ma Lao San is a man of his word.
If you can do it, then so can I.”
“But let make it ugly upfront—if you can’t do it, you’ll have to apologize to !”
“Fine, no problem.
I agree too,” Chen Yang responded unhesitatingly.
This made Ma Lao San pause for a mont, before stepping aside to give Chen Yang room: “Alright, then you carry it!”
Chen Yang, without being polite, stepped forward, while the others in Ma Lao San’s group, thriving off the drama without fearing trouble, were energized seeing the two make a bet.
They all stood up, preparing to carry along with Chen Yang.
Seeing things escalate, Wang Ping wanted to intervene, but this ti he was stopped by Chen Yang.
“Wang Ping, I appreciate your kindness, but if I don’t show so people that they should not underestimate others, this journey won’t be peaceful.”
“This…” Wang Ping was stunned.
His main concern was that Chen Yang wouldn’t be able to handle it, which was why he had spoken up.
But now that Chen Yang had said this, he didn’t know what else to say.
“Alright then, just be careful.
It’s very heavy,” Wang Ping said as he stepped back.
“Co on, quit dawdling, and start lifting,” urged the others in charge of carrying at this point.
Chen Yang turned his head: “You all stand back.
I can do it by myself.”
Upon hearing this, everyone at the scene was startled.
“What?
You’re going to carry it alone?” others exclaid in surprise.
“Yeah, alone.
Four people together is too restrictive; it’s inconvenient,” Chen Yang said, waving his hand, gesturing for them to move aside.
The other three, bewildered, didn’t know what to say or do, only able to look at Wang Ping with extrely surprised expressions, wondering what he thought.
At this mont, Wang Ping was also completely taken aback, wondering if he had heard wrong.
“Brother Chen Yang…
this thing weighs over a thousand pounds.
It takes the four of us to barely move it.
Are you sure you want to do it alone?” Wang Ping asked incredulously.
Chen Yang still wore an unfazed expression: “Yes, I’ll do it alone.”
Wang Ping fell silent, not knowing what to say.
After pondering for a mont, he agreed.
“Alright then, co alone.”
Having said this, he waved his hand, signaling for the others to clear the way.
Seeing Wang Ping’s gesture, the others didn’t say much and moved aside, making enough space for Chen Yang.
Everyone made way, and Chen Yang strode forward, circling the iron chest looking for suitable gripping points.
After locating two appropriate spots, he gripped them with both hands.
“Watch closely, lad, don’t think moving so stuff is impressive.
Today, I’m going to open your eyes,” Chen Yang shouted at the scornful Ma Laotian, then planted his feet firmly and exerted a sudden burst of power in both arms!
With a loud boom, the iron chest weighing over a thousand jin abruptly lifted off the ground and was hoisted high above his head.
A second ago, almost everyone took Chen Yang’s words for a joke.
Wang Ping included, who never believed Chen Yang could lift it alone, and his agreent was only to have Chen Yang give up sooner.
To save ti.
A second later, when they saw Chen Yang hoist over a thousand jin straight over his head with a boom, they were all astounded.
Wang Ping and the others were better off, with their eyes bulging like lanterns.
The weaker experts were so frightened that their legs gave out, and they sat down on the ground with faces full of horror!
Their expressions were no different from soone who had just seen a ghost.
“How…
how is this possible,” Ma Laotian thought in extre shock, his eyes wide open with disbelief all over his face!
anwhile, Chen Yang, who had lifted the iron chest containing the tiger over his head, didn’t pay them any attention and strode forward after stabilizing himself, heading deeper into the mountains!
The path into the depths of the mountain was difficult, but fortunately, there wasn’t an abundance of underbrush, almost no hindrance at all.
And so, after walking a thousand steps, Chen Yang found a sowhat flat spot and carefully placed the chest on the ground.
Carrying sothing weighing over a thousand jin across such complex terrain was indeed a major exertion.
After placing the chest on the ground, Chen Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead with his clothes and then turned to look at the people who had followed.
At that mont, their amazent was beyond words.
They could only think of four words: “A king among n…”
Otherwise, who would possess such strength?
To lift a thousand jin over his head and then walk a thousand steps in the mountains!
Such power could be considered divine, couldn’t it?
All stood dumbstruck, unable to utter a word out of sheer shock.
After several seconds of silence, with a plop, Ma Laotian knelt down.
“I’m…
I’m sorry,” he said, his voice laced with overwhelming shock.
Huff.
Chen Yang let out a deep breath, fixating his gaze on him: “You kept your word, you’re a man of your word.”
Having said that, Chen Yang disregarded him and found a spot to sit down and rest.
Carrying a weight of over a thousand jin was no joke, and the journey thus far had significantly drained Chen Yang’s physical strength.
After sitting down, he promptly took out a Spirit Pill and popped it into his mouth, then closed his eyes to absorb its effects.
The Spirit Pill was not only useful for body tempering but also served as a miraculous cure for rapidly restoring energy.
