When Chen Lei returned to Xueni City with five veterans and a child, it was almost dark.
The journey was not smooth. Chen Lei killed three aliens in succession before he escorted five veterans and a child back.
Needless to say, the difficulty involved was enormous. Along the way, the five veterans were full of admiration for Chen Lei.
Although Chen Lei is young, when facing aliens, he is calm, ruthless and experienced, much better than these veterans who have experienced many battles.
Those hopelessly powerful alien races were like chickens and dogs in Chen Lei's hands and had no power to resist at all.
In fact, when facing these alien races, Chen Lei took out his best skills, mobilizing powerful techniques from the Thunder Emperor Sutra, such as the Lightning Palm, the Qingmu Thunder Needle, and the Little Thunder Sound Sword Technique.
These skills were all powerful skills that he had never demonstrated in front of outsiders. They were the skills he practiced in his previous life.
However, although these skills are extremely powerful, their consumption is like a bottomless pit.
In a dangerous place like the alien battlefield, he did not dare to use his energy easily, and he would leave some of his true energy every time just in case.
Fortunately, there were no dangers along the way, and he managed to rescue five veterans and a child safely.
After bringing the five rescued veterans and a child back to Blood Mud City, Chen Lei handed the six people over to the garrison and no longer cared about them. Instead, he returned to his tent and prepared to rest.
After all, it was late today, and the night was dominated by foreigners. If he dared to stay in the wild at night, he simply didn't want to live.
After returning to the tent, Chen Lei saw Di Jiuyang and Lu Chenghong who were in the same tent with him. Both of them exuded a herbal scent, had thick bandages wrapped around their bodies, and looked extremely ugly.
"How did you two get so badly injured?"
Chen Lei was stunned when he saw Di Jiuyang and Lu Chenghong. Logically speaking, neither Di Jiuyang nor Lu Chenghong would have been injured so badly unless they encountered aliens who were much higher than their level.
And if they encountered an alien race that was much higher in level than them, there would be no way that the two of them would come back alive.
Di Jiuyang and Lu Chenghong both looked extremely ashamed.
Now when the two of them recalled the battle with the aliens, they realized that the two aliens they faced were at best as strong as them, or even weaker than them.
However, they did not fully display their strength during that life-and-death battle, and their combat effectiveness was even less than 70% of their usual level. With such strength, how could they not be injured? It was already good enough that they could come back alive.
At this time, they truly realized that facing a life-and-death battle was completely different from ordinary competition with fellow disciples.
Now that Chen Lei asked him the reason, it was naturally difficult to speak, especially when he saw that although Chen Lei looked tired, there was no injury on his body, he felt even more ashamed.
Seeing the looks of the two, Chen Lei could guess almost exactly what was going on. However, he did not laugh at them. When he first faced the brutal alien race, his performance was not much better than theirs.
