A Knight's Journey Begins in Faiz

Of course, taking a beating is not the way Jiang Yang wants to demonstrate his strength; he simply cannot make large-scale dodges.

There's no way around it; with this kind of injury, it's already quite remarkable that he can stay conscious, considering he hasn't had any training in this area.

Although he was constantly being beaten, at least the desired effect was achieved. If he had chosen to leave from the beginning, Jiang Yang would not have said anything more.

Unfortunately, the life detection section of the ixa's built-in system kept flashing red, which made Jiang Yang have to consider that if the other party was just pretending to retreat, he should still keep the other party completely in the game just in case.

Who would have thought that there would be a sixth brother hiding and launching a sneak attack?

He caught a glimpse of the guy who attacked him when he was knocked away; he saw he had a pair of iron fists.

As for why the transformation is being dispelled now.

IXA can only alleviate the injuries, not cure them. Given his current condition, he cannot get to the hospital before losing consciousness, and besides, he is worried that the enemy may still be there.

Since that's the case, we have no choice but to take the risk.

Gasping for breath, without ixa, he was already feeling some difficulty breathing.

There was no time to lose; he couldn't delay any longer. With a determined effort, he took out the Blank Cell Coin from his spatial storage.

He had a premonition that he could absorb the cell coin, but for various reasons, he dared not try it easily. But now, he had no choice.

"I hope it works."

He patted the cell coin against his chest and consciously tried to absorb it. The cell coin seemed to melt, transforming into a fluid that seeped into his body. There was no comfortable feeling as he had imagined; only the awareness that the cell coin had entered his body—just an awareness.

After the cellular coin entered his body, Jiang Yang could feel the wounds beginning to heal rapidly, but it still wasn't enough. The sense of crisis in his heart hadn't disappeared; it remained intense.

He was now soaked in sweat.

He took out another coin and tried to absorb it, but it still wasn't enough. He tried the third, the fourth, and finally the fifth coin before he felt the crisis receding.

With his mindset slightly relaxed and the fatigue subsiding, Jiang Yang immediately fell into a coma.

ixa's belt landed beside him, and Jiang Yang was completely unprepared.

In the darkness, Jiang Yang seemed to hear someone talking to him.

"Is this what you mean by 'you can do it too'? Is it fun? Playing house?"

In his hazy state, Jiang Yang seemed to hear someone say that. He wanted to refute it, but he couldn't say anything. When he was able to move again, he found himself lying in bed. Beside him was Qi Taro, who looked worried.

"Great, you're finally awake! Qiao, Zhenli, Jiang Yang is awake."

He shouted, and Qiao and Zhenli quickly pushed open the door and entered.

I was relieved he was alright, and then I started asking him what had happened and who had beaten him up like that.

A host of problems were giving Jiang Yang a headache.

Thinking of his injuries, he glanced at them. Although they were wrapped in bandages, he knew that his body had been fully healed.

"Well, that's a long story."

"No rush. First, can you explain what this is?"

As he spoke, Qiaoye took out a belt, which was Jiangyang's ixa belt.

"Didn't you already know that?"

Upon hearing this, Master Qiao clenched his fist.

"Thanks,"

"what?"

"Thank you for saving the boss that day. The boss is a good person. Thank you."

The person who made the suggestion was the owner of that coffee shop.

"It was just a favor, alright, there's nothing to thank me for. Didn't you save me too?"

At this point, the three of them suddenly turned their heads away with embarrassed expressions.

Jiang Yang sensed that something was off about the atmosphere.

"Wait, what's with those expressions? Didn't you save me?"

Keitaro chuckled.

"Well, actually, it's like this."

After Kiba and Jiangyang left, Yuka was worried about Kiba, so she wanted to chase after them to check on them. Of course, Keitaro couldn't let Yuka go alone.

Truth went to deliver the clothes alone, and she only heard about what happened afterward.

The rest of the plot is pretty much the same: Kiba beats up Kaidou after seeing him, Faiz's belt falls off and is picked up by Keitaro, who happens to encounter the snail Orphnoch on the road, and then runs into Keitaro holding the belt.

The Orphnochs were wiped out with almost no resistance, and then they headed home together. On the way, they encountered a scrap collector. They saw the War Lion on the scrap collector's truck.

After stopping the car and asking some questions, they paid the man to take them to the place where the car was found. After searching, they found the unconscious Jiang Yang.

The man had said he would have to pay to get the car back, but upon seeing Jiang Yang lying in a pool of blood, he pushed the Zhan Shi Hao out of the car without saying a word and drove off in his own vehicle.

Just kidding, Jiang Yang's bleeding is obviously not an ordinary accident. What if the police investigate and he ends up being treated as a murderer?

It's not worth getting yourself arrested for this luxury modified motorcycle.

This is almost the case.

Upon hearing that the War Lion had been picked up as scrap, Jiang Yang's lips twitched.

However, the outcome was good regardless.

As for why he had become like this, since Ixa's identity had been exposed, Jiang Yang no longer wanted to make excuses.

"It's the Orphnochs. They want to steal the belts. I think their goal is to collect all the belts. Cho, you should be careful too."

After that, Jiang Yang stayed in his room to rest alone.

Jiang Yang tried moving around a bit and found that there were no problems; he could move around normally.

"This is truly incredible."

With just five Cell Coins, his injuries were completely healed. Those injuries would not have healed quickly even if he hadn't died, even though his recovery speed was extraordinary.

However, there is a problem now: will there be any side effects after he absorbs the Cell Coin? Normally, only the Greedy Ones or the Devourers they create can absorb the Cell Coin.

Although Jiang Yang possessed a Core Coin within him, the system had stated that he wouldn't become a Greedy One, and he indeed didn't feel any tendency to change in that direction. Theoretically, he shouldn't be able to absorb it.

But the ability to absorb Cell Coins did happen, and it doesn't seem to have any side effects. At least not on the surface.

It seems that after absorbing the cell coin, he has only restored his physical condition and it has not caused any other changes. Therefore, he can use the cell coin with peace of mind.

Jiang Yang shook his head. He still felt it wouldn't work. Maybe there really wouldn't be any problems, but he couldn't get over that hurdle in his mind. He was always worried that he would become a greedy person.

But to be honest, the blank core coin inside his body was still very useful. His senses were greatly enhanced. He actually sensed it before the first sneak attack, but he just didn't react in time.

Being able to perceive and being able to react are two different things.

As for being ambushed a second time, well, let's not even mention that kind of humiliation.

This experience made Jiang Yang realize one thing: the other party wanted to kill him—no, not just wanted to, but had already taken action. He had already made a mental note of this, and next time they met, he would absolutely not give Zhuomo the chance.
