Human Shackles - Chapter120

The person on the roof leaped down and stepped lightly on the wall to deflect the force. Midway, he pulled out two short spears from his back and twisted them into a long spear. Just as he was about to land, he straightened the spear and stabbed at Luo Feng with the force of the fall.

This attack was unparalleled in both strength and momentum. Luo Kai didn't dare to block the sharpness of the spear and hurriedly dodged to the side. With a boom, the place where he was just now became a small pit. The flying gravel hurt his skin. Good heavens, each assassin was fiercer than the last. The first three were probably at the level of a beginner Physique Warrior, but this one was already at the level of an intermediate Physique Warrior.

Luo Kai's face was gloomy. He naturally wasn't afraid if there was only one person. However, other than this guy, there were a few faint auras in the surroundings. They seemed to be waiting for the outcome of the fight to be decided. Then, they would make their move.

The temptation of thirty million was indeed great. If he didn't use a powerful method to make an example out of this person, there would be endless trouble in the future. He moved his body and swung his saber at the spear-wielding assassin.

The opponent's spear was like a venomous snake that had entered the attacking state. It moved quickly and hit the side of the curved long saber at a strange angle. Luo Kai's powerful saber was deflected and cut into the ground beside him, leaving a gully in the ground.

Luo Kai was greatly surprised and continued to swing his saber. The opponent retracted his spear and hit the side of the long saber again, deflecting the saber light.

The fierce fight naturally alarmed the garrison forces of Jinlan Manor. A large number of soldiers were rushing here.

The battle between Luo Kai and the assassin had also reached its climax. Luo Kai did not know any sword skills. He only relied on the power of his sword. His attacks were bold and powerful, but his opponent's spear was good at using skillful force. It had the effect of using four taels to deflect a thousand catties. Luo Kai's powerful sword was deflected every time.

Gradually, the curiosity in Luo Kai's heart overtook his killing intent. He wanted to study the opponent's technique of deflecting attacks, so he reduced the strength of his saber and began to use his agile body to circle around and test the opponent.

The battle between the two of them had been going on for half an hour. More and more soldiers had gathered around them and surrounded them. A few officers watched the fight on the street with serious expressions. They were not willing to get involved in a feud between Physique Warriors. Such matters were usually reported to the Association for Physical Arts for them to deal with.

The mask on the spear-wielding killer's face had fallen off. He looked like a middle-aged man in his forties. His expression became more and more dignified. After the first blow, he had no chance to attack at all. This young man's blade was powerful and unstoppable. He could only defend purely.

Now that it was his turn to attack, he realized that his opponent's agility was something he had never seen before. Every time he dodged the spear by a hair's breadth, he kept increasing his strength, but he still missed by a hair's breadth.

He gradually became anxious. Suddenly, he stopped and took a few steps back. He raised the spear in his hand and threw it at Luo Kai.

This was his killing move. When the spear flew through the air, it made an ear-piercing sound. Obviously, it was very powerful. Luo Kai could have just dodged it, but he suddenly wanted to try the deflecting attack method he had just learned. He stirred up all the muscles in his body and raised his saber to cut the tip of the spear. The spear was immediately deflected and broke through a wall next to him.

The middle-aged man was shocked. He pointed at Luo Kai and said in a trembling voice, "You … you … you are actually learning!"

At this time, Luo Kai no longer had the intention to kill. He said lightly, "Your spear technique is very special. I won't kill you. You can go."

The middle-aged man was stunned. He bowed to Luo Kai with a defeated face and turned to leave.

Luo Kai stood on the street. He turned his head and looked around, waiting for the next enemy who dared to make a move.

He had already understood the opponent's method of deflecting attacks. In fact, the so-called 'four taels win a thousand catties' did not exist. The key was one's own strength foundation and eyesight. The strength foundation required one to have fifty to eighty percent of the opponent's strength to be able to deflect a hundred percent of the opponent's attack. Then, it would be eyesight. No matter what kind of attack method, there would always be a point where the strength was concentrated and weak. Only by finding the weak point could one use skillful means to break through the opponent's strength.

Without waiting for him to rest for a moment, the killers around him suddenly attacked. This time, it was not one person, but a group. There were at least seven bodyguards. They jumped down from the buildings on all sides. The gunmen began to shoot while the cold weapons also attacked like lightning. There was also an archer who shot an arrow at him. All kinds of attacks were complex and varied. The whistling sound seemed to be piercing his eardrums.

Luo Kai looked up to the sky and let out a long howl. Blood surged through his body again. His figure disappeared directly. At this moment, he did not have the slightest bit of fear. Instead, he was unable to contain his excitement. Every cell in his body seemed to be cheering. They were also waiting for the battle, waiting for the growth!

He began to attack like lightning. Under the full circulation of his blood and Qi, he almost brought out the potential of his body to the extreme. Because there were too many people besieging him, there was no chance for him to gather his strength. Therefore, he could not use the heavy and powerful saber force. The saber edge was no longer like before. It began to focus on speed. Every time he attacked, he would turn around and slash at the next person. It gave people a feeling of moving clouds and flowing water.

His speed was too fast. The saber edge was like lightning. Every time it came into contact with a person, it would immediately disappear and reappear in front of another person. The situation of the scene changed drastically. Originally, there were many people besieging one person, but the besieger was now in a defensive position.

In a room of a tall building not far away, a few black-clothed men were watching the battle on the long street with their mouths agape. Their black robes were embroidered with the symbol of a pegasus. They were from Seongma Province's Combatant Division. Jinlan Prefecture was the base of the Combatant Division. Naturally, the battle between the bodyguards in the city could not escape their eyes and ears.

One of them said, "It seems that these bodyguards came to Jinlan Prefecture for this brat. He is indeed terrifying!"

"Big Brother, should we intervene?"

"No. Currently, the identities of both sides are unclear. Let's just wait and see."

There were already casualties on the street. One of the beginner level bodyguards was unable to dodge in time and had his neck slit by the saber edge. The people besieging Luo Kai were terrified. It was as if they were fighting against a ghost. The intermediate level bodyguards still had the strength to protect themselves, but the beginner level bodyguards were like lambs without the slightest ability to resist.

Just as they gradually lost their will to fight, Luo Kai's figure suddenly stopped. He brandished his long saber and faced the sky. With a loud clang, the cement slabs under his feet shattered inch by inch.

"Hmph!"

A cold snort sounded in the air. A strange black shadow cut into the battle and fought with him. This person's speed was not inferior to his. He held two military knives that shone with a cold light. His stabbing angle was tricky and vicious, and most of Luo Kai's attention was diverted.

The other people immediately became spirited and used various methods to surround him. The situation changed again. Luo Kai was immediately defeated and no longer had the strength to attack.
