Chapter 789

At the same moment Chen Xuan’s right shoulder was struck, a faint gunshot echoed from deep within the mountain forest. Chen Xuan did not even need to think; he immediately guessed that Quan Zhixi must have hired a sniper to lie in ambush. The distance was immense, and the sniper was so well-hidden that even his divine perspective could not penetrate the cover. What shocked Chen Xuan the most was that his body was already as tough as tempered steel; ordinary bullets should have been unable to cause him any harm. Yet, he had actually been wounded by a sniper rifle. The bullet had burrowed into his right shoulder, and as he felt the elongated round shatter the muscle, a series of piercing pains surged through him.
