Chapter 916: Chapter 926: Iron Hand Benny! (First Update)

Xu Fu’s body exploded directly, and he died.

It wasn’t until Xu Fu blew apart into fragments that Tang Zhong finally let out a long sigh of relief!

At this moment, he was at the bottom of the river.

The string of battles just now had completely drained him, and he simply lay down.

Very soon, he floated up to the river’s surface, intending to rest for a moment.

He had a dream—in the dream, he met Weiwei again.

That day, he had rescued Weiwei from the hanging coffin, and the two of them held each other tightly, never letting go for eternity.

But soon, he heard someone calling his name: "Tang Zhong... Tang Zhong, are you okay?!"

When Tang Zhong opened his eyes, he saw Azure Dragon beside him, quickly getting up and asking, "What’s wrong, Brother Azure Dragon?"

"You... you’re awake. I’m glad you’re okay; I thought something happened to you. By the way, where’s Xu Fu?" Azure Dragon asked hastily.

"Dead!" Tang Zhong replied.

"How did he die?" Azure Dragon asked in shock.

"He ate the Origin Stone and died from it!" Tang Zhong said.

"You really killed him?" Azure Dragon couldn’t believe it.

"Yes!" Tang Zhong nodded firmly.

"Amazing! With someone like you in Xuan Country, we’ll surely thrive forever!" Azure Dragon gave Tang Zhong a thumbs-up.

"Brother Azure Dragon, right now we’d better figure out why so many Origin Stones are appearing here!" Tang Zhong said.

"Right, right!" Azure Dragon nodded as well.

Their purpose in entering the Emperor’s underground tomb this time was to find the Origin Stones. They certainly couldn’t forget this objective; Xu Fu’s appearance was just a minor detour.

The two of them then climbed ashore, looking at the green waters ahead.

"The Origin Stones are in this water. I just checked, the entire river is filled with them!" Tang Zhong said.

"How are we supposed to transport these things?" Azure Dragon said. "Origin Stones carry immense power. If we can truly obtain them, it would drive the entire world mad. Forget about new energy sources—they can even provide vitality to people..."

"Even I don’t know!" Tang Zhong replied.

The Origin Stone he had seen before was just a small piece.

"I’ll try it out!" Azure Dragon said.

His fists clenched tightly, and Qigong energy appeared once more. It shaped into a Tiger Fist and struck out instantly.

With a tiger’s roar, the river waters split open in an instant, revealing the riverbed again.

The Origin Stones appeared once more at the bottom of the river.

Then Azure Dragon’s body shot downward. Reaching out, he grabbed an Origin Stone, tore it loose with force, and lifted it upward—a small piece successfully extracted.

A look of joy appeared on Azure Dragon’s face. He turned back and shouted toward Tang Zhong, "It worked!"

"Something’s wrong!" Tang Zhong suddenly felt danger and immediately shouted, sensing a murderous intent approaching fast.

From the distance, three black shadows appeared, gliding closer with an eerie calm.

The strongest of the group, a thin man, extended his palm, firing a beam of light in an instant.

The beam aimed directly at the Origin Stone in Azure Dragon’s hand.

Azure Dragon had no time to react. The beam struck the Origin Stone, which exploded with a deafening blast.

"The Origin Stones here belong to us. All of you, scram!" the thin man leading the group said in a chilling tone.

The two figures behind him, one fat and one thin, immediately chimed in, their voices dripping with sarcasm: "From now on, this place is ours!"

Azure Dragon’s brows furrowed deeply. He leapt to stand beside Tang Zhong, his gaze fixed on the three cloaked figures. Coldly, he asked, "Who are you?"

Tang Zhong also stared intently at the black-robed figures. Their aura was strikingly similar to the one he encountered at Madina’s concert earlier. Clearly, they were part of the same group.

"You’re not worthy of knowing our names. This place is ours now—leave, or you’ll all die!" The leading thin man spoke icily.

"Just you? This is Xuan Country’s territory..." Azure Dragon clenched his fist. The usually composed man, as the strongest protector of the Dragon Group, tied his life inseparably to Xuan Country.

"Xuan Country’s Azure Dragon... yes, I know you. One of Xuan Country’s top ten warriors. But let me tell you this—you’re no match for us..." the thin man said with a sneer.

"We’ll see about that!" Azure Dragon roared, launching himself forward. His fists, brimming with the waves of Qigong energy, hurled a punch directly at the thin man.

"Pathetic! You’re not even qualified to fight me!" The thin man smirked as Azure Dragon charged towards him. Suddenly, an overpowering aura erupted from his body. He extended his hands—

Those hands were not human, but made of iron!

With a swift motion, he swung his Iron Hands down at Azure Dragon.

Tang Zhong’s expression darkened the moment he saw the Iron Hands. He could sense the energy of the Origin Stone emanating from them. These people must also be here for the Origin Stones.

And judging from their power, this man’s aura was far stronger than Azure Dragon’s.

"Brother Azure Dragon, dodge quickly! He’s too strong for you!" Tang Zhong shouted in warning.

But it was already too late. The iron hands of the black-cloaked man collided with Azure Dragon.

With a thunderous boom, Azure Dragon was sent flying, landing in the river with a splash.

As soon as he hit the water, Azure Dragon clutched his chest and climbed back up without delay. The clash just now had been anything but simple.

"You... who exactly are you?" Azure Dragon demanded, narrowing his eyes into thin slits as he stared at the black-cloaked man.

The figure before him bore an uncanny resemblance to someone from legend.

That person’s name was Iron Hand Benny.

Being a General, Azure Dragon was familiar with such prominent figures in history.

But hadn’t this General already died?

Though he wasn’t sure of the man’s true identity, one thing was certain: these people had come from Yun Country.

And their mission was clear—they were after the Origin Stones.

"Since you’re as good as dead, I’ll let you see for yourself," the thin man said coldly.

With a sudden motion, he tore off his black robe, revealing his appearance underneath.

He had a foreign face, and more strikingly, half of it was made of machinery.

"Benny? Weren’t you already dead?" Azure Dragon exclaimed in horror.

The man before them was none other than the infamous Iron Hand Benny, who had once been renowned in war.

How could he still be alive? Benny had clearly died during the battle at Pearl Harbor, his face nearly obliterated. What’s more, Yun Country had even conducted a memorial ceremony for him back then. It couldn’t possibly have been fake!

"Dead, yes, but I’ve come back to life." Iron Hand Benny spoke with a sinister chill in his voice.

Tang Zhong’s gaze also locked onto Benny. Dead yet revived—it was identical to what happened with Hu Gego. This current state of theirs couldn’t be mere coincidence; it had to be deeply connected to Giger from before.
