Chapter 169: Chapter 169: Extreme Operation

For Lu Tiankou, the fact that Lu Xiao, at the peak of the Hua Realm, possessed such speed was already somewhat unbelievable.

Yet, to his surprise, Lu Xiao was actually capable of accelerating even further.

Bear in mind that he was a Heavenly Man, a being that completely transcends the Hua Realm.

Even reaching the Heavenly Man Realm hinted at a level of transcendence.

However, up to this point, after two minutes of pursuit, he still hadn’t caught up with Lu Xiao.

Although Lu Xiao had been employing tactics to slow down his own speed, if it had been any other at the Peak of Hua Realm, they would have long been caught up to by him.

"This kid, might... be close to the Heavenly Man level," Lu Tiankou ultimately concluded with a chill of horror.

The burst of speed that Lu Xiao displayed had completely surpassed the Peak of the Hua Realm.

"Damn it, if this kid doesn’t die today, the Lu Family will certainly face disaster!"

The stronger Lu Xiao was, the more intense the murderous intent within Lu Tiankou became.

"Qi, burst!" Lu Tiankou bellowed.

The next moment, Qi concentrated on his back and then suddenly exploded outwards.

The powerful propulsion forcibly launched Lu Tiankou forward.

In almost an instant, the distance between Lu Tiankou and Lu Xiao was reduced to a mere ten meters.

Seeing Lu Xiao so close at hand, Lu Tiankou’s eyes shone with a chilling coldness, and his Soft Sword hummed slightly, ready to strike at any moment.

Lu Xiao’s heart had also risen to his throat.

He was about to be caught up to!

What to do? Should he flee with all Eight Gates opened?

No way!

Lu Xiao instantly rejected this idea.

If he opened all Eight Gates, his speed could indeed climb another level, but would that allow him to outrun Lu Tiankou?

He didn’t know; it was possible he could, but also possible he couldn’t.

Lu Xiao was unwilling to gamble, because if he lost the bet, his life would be over.

"If that’s the case, then screw it, just do it!" Lu Xiao suddenly took a deep breath and slammed into a large tree ahead.

Bang!

Lu Xiao’s body made intimate contact with the tree; such high speed, even with his formidable physique, was almost too much for him to withstand.

He could distinctly feel the fractures in his bones.

But at that moment, Lu Xiao couldn’t care less about the pain. He stomped hard on the tree trunk and charged towards Lu Tiankou.

Lu Xiao’s extreme and sudden maneuver caught even Lu Tiankou off guard.

After all, the distance between them was too short.

"Qi, open!" Lu Tiankou barely had time to wield his sword and could only shield himself with Qi surrounding his body at the last moment.

"Old bastard, go to hell!"

Lu Xiao swung his broken blade directly at Lu Tiankou’s throat.

Getting within half a meter of Lu Tiankou, Lu Xiao felt a definite resistance.

Is this the external release of Qi?

"Burst it!" Lu Xiao strained his right arm forward, and after the broken blade cut through nearly thirty centimeters of the Qi, it could no longer advance.

"Kid, you’ve lost your chance," Lu Tiankou’s chilling voice suddenly erupted.

Lu Xiao’s assault was close to perfect, and even with his Heavenly Human strength, he didn’t react in time.

But a Heavenly Human is a Heavenly Human after all, protected by Qi, you can’t harm me a bit.

"Die!" Lu Tiankou’s Soft Sword finally swept out.

The sword, which was originally flexible, became taut in an instant with the enhancement of Qi, slanting towards Lu Xiao’s head.

Lu Tiankou had almost envisioned Lu Xiao being decapitated by the sword, but in that brief, infinitesimal moment, Lu Xiao’s body performed a bizarre lunge forward.

Lu Tiankou’s upward swing met Lu Xiao’s sudden lunge, leading the sword to severely slice into Lu Xiao’s ribs.

"Eight Gates, open!" Just as the Soft Sword cut into Lu Xiao’s body, he opened all Eight Gates, and sure enough, a tempest of Qi surged wildly within him.

Lu Xiao didn’t draw his blade but instead reached around his waist with a speed barely visible to the naked eye.

Then came the sound: Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang

Seven consecutive gunshots.

Each bullet hit nearly the same spot.

The first bullet penetrated twenty centimeters of Qi, the second reached thirty centimeters, the third made it to thirty-five centimeters, the fourth and the fifth were just two centimeters from Lu Tiankou, and the sixth bullet completely shattered the Qi.

The seventh, from top to bottom, drove fiercely into Lu Tiankou’s knee.
