Chapter 462: Chapter 459
He was already prepared, and Lu Xiao had anticipated this.
He just hadn’t expected Li Tingze to be so brazen.
But there was no time to consider that now. As someone charged at him with a cleaver, Lu Xiao stepped aside, smoothly grabbing the assailant’s wrist and snapping the joint with a crisp crack. The man howled, dropping the cleaver, which Lu Xiao caught.
With one hand, he clamped the man’s neck, while the other held the gleaming blade across the man’s throat.
Instantly, the group’s attention shifted to this sudden turn of events, their eyes fixed on Lu Xiao.
Lu Xiao’s lips curled slightly, his eyes filled with a deadly coldness. He said slowly,
“Are you sure you want to use these things? Although we all are in it for one thing, and that’s money, think carefully. Once your life is gone, how will your mother, wife, and children survive…!”
At his words, although the men all looked fierce, they were visibly shaken.
Especially since they now witnessed this man easily subduing one of their own, they belatedly realized that if he wasn’t a formidable character, why would they need so many to challenge him.
Li Tingze’s face was grim, as he hadn’t expected Lu Xiao to say something like that. He swept his gaze over the men, including the one Lu Xiao held captive, before saying with a sinister tone, “Put down your weapons!”
Then, he added coldly, “I want to see just how capable you are, to see how you’re going to walk away unscathed today—!”
He wanted Lu Xiao dead, but not here.
The death should not be linked to him; this was just an appetizer!
After his words, his men were the first to put down their cleavers. After all, no one knew for sure who would be missing limbs or even lose their life.
Only then did Lu Xiao throw down the cleaver. The next second, his attackers shouted and charged at him with bare fists. Lu Xiao instantly hurled the man in front of him, crushing several others, and with a swift roundhouse kick, he struck an assailant’s temple, knocking the man against the wall where he slumped down unconscious.
However, his attackers were ferocious and powerful, not completely feeble. As several surrounded him, throwing punch after punch, Lu Xiao dodged swiftly, attacking all the while.
He was a master of close-quarters combat, and offense is always the best defense.
One punch landed on a man’s chest area, a vulnerable spot, sending him flying and spitting blood. Then, grabbing a nearby fork, Lu Xiao pierced the palm of another attacker who was lunging from behind, the man crying out in agony.
In no time, several men were screaming in pain; although Lu Xiao took a few hits, they only served as a warm-up.
When several attackers advanced at once, and he was in a chokehold, Lu Xiao first snapped one man’s fingers backward, breaking them viciously, then stepped on the handle of the cleaver. The blade shot up, and he caught it, plunging it mercilessly into the foot of the man behind him.
“Ah—!”
A shrill scream rang out. Lu Xiao then flipped backward, and as they hit the ground, his legs tightly wrapped around his opponent’s neck, nearly causing the man to kick and roll his eyes back.
