Is reconciliation possible within Chapter 41?
Is reconciliation possible within Chapter 41?
Shou Chong nodded forcefully, and the two of them, disregarding any martial ethics, pounced on Wang Sheng at the same time.
The two of them had already discovered the strangeness about this kid.
Putting aside the trick he used to feign death, the boy was clearly only at the initial stage of the Bronze Bone Realm, but his speed and power were enough to briefly rival those of a high-level master.
Besides that, what's even more chilling are those combat techniques, all of which are ranked and used skillfully and expertly, making up for the lack of raw strength.
He truly has the ability to fight against a high-level Bronze Bone cultivator!
But now.
Even with one arm missing, it's still two against one...
No matter how talented you are, you are doomed to die!
The two attacked from the left and right respectively. Shou Chong parried and dealt with the steel knife in Wang Sheng's right hand, while Lu Guan attacked his empty left side.
When two people surround and attack, neither grappling techniques nor judo can be of any use in a real, unpredictable fight.
Wang Sheng uses the "Nine Steps of the Swimming Dragon" on his feet and the "Pig Slaughtering Manual" with one hand.
war!
brush--
Losing his balance, Wang Sheng swung his sword, but it was barely dodged by the beast.
"puff!"
On the other side, Lu Guan suddenly launched a sneak attack. Wang Sheng dodged at the last second, and the dagger missed vital organs, only piercing Wang Sheng's side abdomen.
Lu Guan was startled:
How did he manage to dodge it?
Wang Shengzhi was successfully ambushed because Lu Guan concealed his murderous intent, rendering [Super Sense Reflex] and [Death Omen Evasion] ineffective.
However, it is clear that after being brought back to life, Lu Guan's supernatural abilities became ineffective.
"Damn it! Die!"
Lu Guan cursed loudly, taking advantage of the fact that Wang Sheng was missing an arm and his movements were somewhat inaccurate due to the center of gravity. He unleashed his blood and continued to pursue with a dagger in hand.
Wang Sheng, on the other hand, seemed to be reckless, always sacrificing himself for an opportunity to attack. The wounds that missed his vital points stopped bleeding and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His physical strength seemed inexhaustible. Losing an arm was like losing just an arm to Wang Sheng; the negative effects of pain and blood loss seemed nonexistent, and the fight was far more strenuous than he had imagined.
But in the end, this match was a crushing victory for the superior team.
It took Shouchong and Lu Guan more than ten seconds to finally seize a fleeting opportunity. Shouchong punched Wang Sheng in the chest, causing his heart to stop, while Lu Guan took the opportunity to stab him in the heart.
"Thump!"
The boy fell to the ground; this time he was surely dead.
"You bastard, die! Die! Die!"
Still seemingly not satisfied, Lu Guan picked up the long sword that Wang Sheng had dropped and slashed at him three times in succession, beheading him on the spot.
"Ha! Let's see if you can stand up again this time!"
Lu Guan sneered.
Beastmaster frowned to the side:
"Don't waste any more time! If we don't run now, it'll be too late."
"I know, let's go."
Lu Guan threw the machete to Shou Chong, and the two of them immediately took off running outside.
But they didn't run away for even a second.
Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps came from behind.
The two were immediately startled!
As they turned their heads in disbelief, the dark figure flashed and blocked their way.
However, Shou Chong and Lu Guan did not turn back immediately. They just stared blankly at the place where the corpse should have been, but which was now empty.
The two men's necks stiffened, and like wound-up machines, they slowly turned their heads back to face forward.
Then, I saw it.
That was Wang Sheng, whose left arm was sleeveless and whose clothes were tattered and torn.
He held a knife in one hand and a dagger in the other.
Shou Chong and Lu Guan were shocked to realize that their weapons had been stolen again!
"You, you fucking... are you a human or a ghost?!"
Lu Guan was filled with fear and rage, his pupils bloodshot as he glared at Wang Sheng with resentment.
The beastman beside him was even calmer:
"Don't panic. Why would a ghost need weapons to kill someone? Supernatural abilities are incredibly diverse, and it's not impossible for him to have the ability to resurrect. This time, we'll only injure him, not kill him. We'll cripple his legs before we run!"
These words also brought Lu Guan's thoughts back to the present:
"it is good."
"We need to hurry. If we can't resolve this within half a minute, we might all be finished. The werewolves are getting closer and closer."
"Know!"
Lu Guan shouted and charged forward first, with the beast following closely behind.
The two planned to use the same tactic again, attacking from both sides to make Wang Sheng unable to defend himself and slowly reveal his weaknesses.
But then Wang Sheng adopted a strange stance, and his left and right hands moved simultaneously.
"On the right is... 'The Complete Guide to Slaughtering Pigs'."
He muttered to himself, this sword technique, which originally required the coordination of the whole body, was swung out by himself, meeting the beast's attack.
"On the left is... the Eight-Step Soul-Chasing Dagger."
His left hand seemed to be an arm installed separately from his body, and it stabbed at Lu Guan's vital points with an extremely tricky posture.
He had never used dagger techniques before, but now it was as if he had suddenly learned them.
At the same time, the "Nine Steps of the Soaring Dragon" technique under his feet also became somewhat different, coordinating with the two completely different combat skills on his upper body to deal with offensive and defensive actions.
"Something's not right with this kid!"
Lu Guan barely dodged Wang Sheng's attack and shouted loudly.
The beast wiped the cut on his cheek and said coldly:
"He can use more than two combat techniques simultaneously, it's like... he was specifically trained to fight multiple opponents, what teacher would teach something like that?"
Under equal conditions, the advantage of two against one is naturally greater, but now...
This common sense seems somewhat unbelievable.
No, they're not even on equal footing.
This kid's performance at this moment is not just about being able to contend with a high-level Bronze Bone Realm expert; he truly has the ability to kill a high-level Bronze Bone Realm martial artist on his own!
"puff!"
Wang Sheng's sword strikes were ruthless and domineering, his sole aim being to dismember his enemies.
The beast was unable to defend itself and only managed to deflect the blade with a burst of energy, preventing it from severing his arm along the joint. However, the wound was still deep enough to expose bone, greatly reducing its combat effectiveness.
brush brush --
Wang Sheng's right hand wielded a dagger that danced like a silver snake, its attack angles, speeds, and methods becoming increasingly cunning, each move aimed at killing.
Relying on his basic understanding of assassination, Lu Guan was able to react with difficulty. However, as he continued to deal with Wang Sheng's changing moves, the wound on his abdomen reopened, and his dodging became slower and slower, leaving him increasingly powerless.
We can't beat them!
Both Shouchong and Lu Guan were aware of this problem.
And even if we manage to win by fighting to the death, the werewolves should be arriving by now!
The beast retreated sharply and said:
"Stop hitting me, young man! We can cooperate! We'll return your things to you right now!"
Lu Guan had the same idea. He quickly retreated and stood on either side of Shou Chong, so that Wang Sheng could not split himself in two to chase after him.
He then spoke up:
"An adult wolf is comparable to a level three martial artist. Even if you had nine lives, it wouldn't be enough to take you down. We can still retreat now; if we're late, we're all doomed!"
As Lu Guan spoke, he unloaded all his belongings:
"I'm returning your medicine to you."
Clang, clang.
He and the beastman left their belongings behind as a gesture of goodwill.
Just as Lu Guan and Shou Chong looked at Wang Sheng with anticipation.
Under the moonlight, all they could see were Wang Sheng's eyes, which gleamed with excitement and ruthlessness.
"You killed two of my lives, I'll take two of yours..."
"Isn't that fair?"
