Chapter 91: Chapter 91 Change Tactics (Five Updates, Subscribe Please)
Facing the situation before him, Zhao Yuan, though a battle-hardened martial artist, was momentarily stunned before reacting.
Previously, the Xingxiao Sect Envoy had emphatically warned him, under direct orders from the Sect Hierarch above, that Lin Xing was not to be killed.
However, accustomed to regular combat, Zhao Yuan failed to adapt immediately to this kind of battle... where he could not kill an opponent who was unafraid of death, almost cleaving the opponent with an axe.
He held his breath and quickly diverted his axe away from Lin Xing’s body.
At the same time, he raised a foot to meet the kick delivered by Lin Xing.
In Zhao Yuan’s view, since Lin Xing did not possess the soldier’s heritage or follow the path of martial arts, his combat skills were surely far inferior to his own.
When he lifted his leg to block, even though he exerted insufficient force because it was rushed, it should have been enough to block Lin Xing’s kick.
But the moment their legs collided, he realized his mistake, egregiously wrong.
Bang!
A tremendous force burst out from Lin Xing’s leg.
With the immense strength of a 4.4-meter-tall’s leg striking vehemently, Zhao Yuan felt a pain in his leg, and his body inevitably lost balance and fell backwards.
He was extremely shocked, "Lin Xing clearly does not inherit the soldier’s tradition, why can he unleash such strong physical power?"
However, having fought countless battles, although Zhao Yuan was shocked inside, his movements showed no signs of panic.
He released his axe and twisted his waist, trying to regain his footing before he hit the ground.
But Lin Xing, who had ten times more battle experience than him, was not going to miss this opportunity.
Four fire dragons, no longer controlled by spirit will, exploded violently.
Zhao Yuan, trying to regain his balance, felt intense pain in his eyes and groin, as if four people were punching and kicking him in those spots simultaneously.
With a scream, Zhao Yuan fell to the ground.
Facing the fallen Zhao Yuan, Lin Xing immediately stomped on his knee. The heavy impact, fueled by the strength of a 4.4-meter-tall, was enough to cripple the martial artist.
But in the next instant, a whooshing sound arrived, and Zhang Tiande’s long halberd swept toward Lin Xing.
Unobstructed by the fire dragons, he burst forth in his form and almost instantly reached in front of Lin Xing.
With a bang, Lin Xing was struck sideways by the halberd, feeling as if he’d been hit by a car, with every bone and muscle in his body swelling painfully.
Zhang Tiande then positioned himself in front of Zhao Yuan, his gaze toward Lin Xing somewhat complex, "Impressive skills. Who would have thought that aside from talismans, you also possess such exquisite martial arts? It seems you hid your true strength when you were under me."
After all, in others’ view, it was unlikely for one to drastically improve his martial arts in a short period of time.
In the eyes of Zhang Tiande and Zhao Yuan, the physical prowess Lin Xing displayed far exceeded his previous capabilities, which could only mean he had hidden his true power.
Zhao Yuan got up, glaring at Lin Xing.
He was about to pick up his axe, but saw Zhang Tiande unexpectedly toss aside his own halberd.
Zhang Tiande coolly stated, "Since we cannot kill Lin Xing, using these weapons is more like wielding a weapon in concern for mice, it’s more convenient to fight with bare hands."
Zhao Yuan thought the same, simply not reaching for his axe but instead cracking his knuckles and saying, "We’ll have to break both his arms and legs, completely depriving him of his ability to resist."
In the next moment, with a swoosh sound, he and Zhang Tiande dashed out together, like two black bolts of lightning hurtling toward Lin Xing.
Whoosh! Four fire dragons soared into the sky once again, aiming to strangle the two approaching men.
But Zhang Tiande opened his mouth and let out a visible gust of wind, a technique advanced from the Divine Dragon Roar, which caused a shock that affected miles around.
Under the terrifying impact of the sound wave, the four fire dragons were swept away, allowing Zhang Tiande and Zhao Yuan to again bypass the fire dragons and charge at Lin Xing.
"Heaven and earth, Wuji, protect me!"
An invisible barrier enveloped Lin Xing.
The barrier shattered with another roar from Zhang Tiande.
Zhao Yuan followed with a palm strike, but Lin Xing’s spiritual thoughts dragged and pulled his elbow, redirecting the strike into thin air.
A series of exchanges happened in an instant, and the four fire dragons that had just been repelled were once again driven by Lin Xing towards Zhang Tiande.
From the beginning, both parties entered a state of high-speed intense fighting.
Or to put it another way, facing two martial arts masters who didn’t wear heavy armor or wield weapons and pushed their speed to the limit, Lin Xing felt wave after wave of attacks coming at him like a raging storm.
The adversary’s reactions and speed were simply too fast, let alone fighting two against one.
Especially Zhang Tiande, who was now exerting his full strength, was far more terrifying than when Lin Xing had previously tried to assassinate him.
In such fierce combat, Lin Xing felt as if he was walking on a thin wire—with punches, kicks, talismans, spiritual thoughts, fire dragons... Any slight mistake would result in his capture by the enemy.
It was only because his combat experience was extremely rich and his physical condition had greatly improved that he managed to hold his ground, using every ounce of his strength and resources to the limit in this battle without falling behind.
"But talisman paper and flammable oil will eventually run out."
"My attention cannot remain focused like this all the time."
"This will lead to defeat sooner or later."
"I must change tactics now."
Three Wind-Blowing Talismans appeared in Lin Xing’s hand.
"Heaven and earth, heed my command, rise, winds!"
Amid a gust of wind and flying debris, Lin Xing temporarily widened the distance between himself and the two martial artists.
Upon seeing Lin Xing’s retreating direction, Zhao Yuan immediately shouted, "Commander, be careful not to let him escape! He can ride on that woman’s head!"
Hearing Zhao Yuan’s words, Zhang Tiande paused slightly; he understood each word, but put together, he truly didn’t comprehend their meaning.
At this moment, the direction Lin Xing retreated towards was precisely where the Puppet Girl was standing.
Since the start of the battle, Bai Yiyi had been standing motionless, unable to find an opportunity to lend assistance.
After all, her control over the puppet body was still too weak to unleash formidable combat power.
At Zhao Yuan’s shout, Bai Yiyi felt as if her face darkened.
She became extremely annoyed, "Why yell so loudly!"
Bai Yiyi felt like she had become the focus of everyone’s attention. Thinking about being mounted on her head by Lin Xing again made her feel waves of embarrassment.
"Forget it, this ambush has truly caused big trouble for Lin Xing. If he wants to ride, let him ride..."
Just as Bai Yiyi thought this, she saw Lin Xing grab the Puppet Girl’s hand.
"You two are indeed very powerful."
Lin Xing looked at Zhang Tiande and Zhao Yuan and said, "Among all the people I’ve killed, you are definitely among the most troublesome."
"Given that, I can only resort to using my strongest defensive tool..."
Bai Yiyi watched as Lin Xing lifted the Puppet Girl, her mind going blank.
"While this tool is impervious to knives and fire and is incredibly durable due to its material, its excessive weight meant that my previous strength was never sufficient to use it at will."
"But now, it is possible."
With that, Lin Xing lifted the Puppet Girl and slammed her towards Zhao Yuan with a booming sound.
The Puppet Girl caused a wind and thunderous noise, bearing down like a massive grinding stone.
