Chapter 8: Hero Saves the Beauty
For two consecutive days, the viewers in the live room eagerly anticipated Yi Chen would lose patience with the loneliness and start talking to himself, reciting the mental methods of the Flying Blade Technique.
Unfortunately, it did not happen.
In the vast mountain range, peaks rose one after another.
The roars of beasts echoed faintly.
Yi Chen cautiously moved through the forest, feeling isolated and lonely.
Until he suddenly heard the sound of roaring and growling nearby.
His spirit instantly lifted.
The roar clearly came from fierce beasts, but the growls sounded human.
He took out a few thorny fruits and held them in his hand.
Then he followed the sounds to find their source.
Soon, he arrived at a small grove.
A bit further in the distance, he could vaguely see a tall woman, clad in animal skin, wielding a short knife.
She was fighting against a giant wild boar, three meters tall, covered in blood, with a single horn on its forehead.
From the looks of it, although the giant wild boar was injured, it still seemed vigorous.
On the other hand, the tall woman was panting heavily, clearly showing signs of exhaustion.
…
“Here it comes, here it comes! The chance for a hero to save the beauty is here! I specifically checked the information about the exile planet, and this is a Level 5 fierce beast, the horned pig. Judging by the woman’s current state, she definitely cannot win.”
“Wow, what’s your standard? Is that a beauty?”
“What do you know! Because the living environment is different, the people on the exile planet have different tastes. A robust, rough-skinned, dark-skinned person is considered beautiful.”
“This woman is two meters tall, with a strong build, muscles bursting with power. Everywhere she should be big, she is astonishingly so.”
“And even though she is exhausted, she still moves with agility and has great stamina. In the entire exile planet, she is a rare beauty with both looks and strength.”
Excited by the rare spectacle, the viewers in the live room buzzed with anticipation.
They looked forward to Yi Chen taking action and using the Flying Blade Technique to rescue this stunning beauty from the exile planet.
…
In the grove, however, Yi Chen did not make his move.
He concealed himself behind the trunk of a large tree, quietly observing the situation.
As a member of humanity, he was determined to help.
However, he wanted to maximize his benefits.
The Grassland Tribe did not know how to proceed. Having finally encountered a member of humanity, their goal was clear: they needed to infiltrate this human tribe and find a way to become the tribe’s leader.
The tall woman in front of them displayed great strength, and just from her iron short knife, one could guess her prominent status in the tribe—she was definitely among the top ranks.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have the right to wield iron weapons.
Saving her in her moment of despair would undoubtedly yield greater gratitude than rescuing her when she still had strength to fight.
They waited for half an hour.
The tall woman’s resilience exceeded Yi Chen’s expectations.
Even though she was in a dire situation, exhausted, she continued to grit her teeth and cleverly used the cover of trees to dodge the horned pig’s attacks.
She even managed to seize an opportunity, striking the horned pig with her knife and leaving a slash on its body.
However, a disparity in strength remained a disparity in strength.
No matter how resilient she was, it could not overcome her physical weakness.
As time went on, the tall woman’s movements slowed and became clumsier.
Finally, during one charge from the horned pig, she managed to evade its sharp horn but was struck by the pig’s body.
The tall woman’s body flew back like a cannonball.
Her short knife flew from her hand and smashed into a big tree, coming to a halt.
She spat a mouthful of blood.
The tall woman tried to get back up but couldn’t manage it.
The horned pig roared and turned around, locking onto the tall woman’s position, lowering its head to charge again.
Though she couldn’t stand, the tall woman stared defiantly at the horned pig, undaunted.
Yet deep in her eyes, a glimmer of despair flashed.
Whoosh!
A whistling sound suddenly broke through the air.
Yi Chen finally made his move.
The thorny fruit arced gracefully through the air, striking the wound on the horned pig’s back.
The thorny fruit, a good ten centimeters long, embedded itself deeply into the pig’s injury.
Howl!
In pain, the horned pig let out a cry, its charge momentarily stalling.
The tall woman’s eyes widened in surprise, clearly not expecting a chance to turn the tide at such a desperate moment.
…
“He made his move! He finally made his move!”
“My goodness, according to the scanner, the speed of the thorny fruit after being launched reached three hundred meters per second! This speed is much faster than when he practiced.”
“Amazing! With this speed, combined with the hardness and sharpness of the thorny fruit, it could easily pierce through the skull of a weaker fierce beast.”
“I wonder when Yi Chen wrote down the formula for the Flying Blade Technique.”
“It feels like he was a bit too underhanded, waiting until the life-and-death moment to act.”
“In a place like the exile planet, if you’re not a bit sneaky, it’s too hard to survive.”
“If you want to win the heart of a beauty, you have to be a little devious, don’t you think? Yi Chen looks delicate and fair; to us, he’s handsome, but to the women on the exile planet, he would seem like useless trash.”
“Having children with trash usually leads to more trash. Even if Yi Chen is a lifesaver, that stunning beauty would surely look down on him.”
“Making his move when the stunning beauty is at her most desperate increases his chances of winning her over.”
The audience in the live room was buzzing with discussion.
Some thought Yi Chen was too cunning, while others couldn’t help but defend him.
But the real reason was known only to Yi Chen himself.
Whoosh…
As the large body of the horned pig turned to face him, Yi Chen wasted no time and launched another thorny fruit, striking the pig squarely in the forehead.
The thorny fruit, measuring over ten centimeters long, had only its tail sticking out.
The horned pig began to wobble, its legs flailing as if it were drunk.
After taking a few more steps, it crashed to the ground with a thud.
Its breath gradually weakened.
Not far away, the tall woman looked at the fallen horned pig, then at Yi Chen, who appeared pale and frail, definitely the level of uselessness in their tribe.
Her large, round eyes were filled with disbelief.
He tossed a thorny fruit and killed a horned pig just like that?
She was absolutely certain that if she went back to the tribe and told them, nobody would believe her.
Even witnessing it with her own eyes, she felt it was somewhat unreal.
On the other side, confirming the horned pig had breathed its last, Yi Chen approached, pulled out the thorny fruit from its forehead, wiped off the blood, and stored it away.
Only then did he come before the tall woman and ask with concern, “Are you okay?”
The tall woman shook her head.
Having regained some strength, she managed to stand up, albeit shakily.
“Lonely life! With a beauty in front of him, he actually chooses to retrieve the thorny fruit first?”
“Completely inexperienced. If it were me, I’d rush over immediately, help the beauty up, and ask if she was okay. Of course, that depends on my dating standards being similar to those of the humanity on the exile planet.”
“What do you know? On the exile planet, asking if someone is okay is useless.”
“To win her heart, the perfect approach is to directly pick her up and place her on the horned pig’s corpse.”
“Then, cut the pig’s throat and let her drink some of its blood to regain her strength.”
“Doing this would both claim the beauty and the horned pig as his own and show off his gentle side.”
The audience in the live room believed Yi Chen’s methods of winning over women were painfully lacking.
If they were in his shoes, leveraging the life-saving favor, even if they looked like useless trash by the standards of the exile planet, they would definitely win the heart of the beauty!
