Rebirth starts with many children and good fortune
#186 - Chapter 186: Hold Back
Just then, Li Shan suddenly traded injury for injury, disregarding the sharpness of Wu Feng's sword, and immediately seized the opportunity to slash his blade towards Wu Feng's chest. Caught off guard, Wu Feng was struck by Li Shan's blade, instantly spitting out a mouthful of blood and staggering backward a few steps.
Feeling the pressure from Li Shan, Wu Feng's expression turned grave. He knew he had to show his true ability to withstand Li Shan's offensive. Playing around was fine, but getting injured would be embarrassing.
He took a deep breath, and the sword in his hand was likewise infused with a bloody hue, becoming even sharper, its bloody light overflowing and enveloping Li Shan like a great net.
Seeing this, Li Shan was shocked. He hurriedly waved his blade to defend. However, Wu Feng's swordplay grew increasingly fierce, making him feel somewhat overwhelmed. But he did not retreat; instead, he gritted his teeth and stubbornly resisted Wu Feng's attacks.
Li Shan pressed his advantage, slashing at Wu Feng, wanting to defeat his opponent in one fell swoop. However, Wu Feng displayed a tenacious fighting spirit, enduring the pain and unleashing a deadly move—the 'Cape Slash'—instantly forcing Li Shan into a desperate situation.
Li Shan felt a sense of helplessness, but he knew there was no other choice now but to go all out to resist the opponent's attack. At this moment, both men pushed their strength to the extreme, each of their moves and actions containing a fatal threat, as if a slight carelessness could lead to death.
The whole scene was so tense and exciting that it was almost suffocating, and the onlookers couldn't help but sweat for them. This battle was not just a duel between two individuals, but also concerned the interests of the forces behind them. Both Li Shan and Wu Feng understood the importance of this battle, and they had to do their best to achieve final victory.
If Li Shan were to unfortunately lose this battle, then the gang he represented would inevitably suffer a heavy blow, and their position would be severely affected. As for Wu Feng, if he failed, it would mean that he could not complete his mission, not only losing face but also potentially facing even more serious consequences. Therefore, no matter what, they must not lose.
The two sides exchanged blows, neither willing to give in, and the atmosphere on the field became increasingly tense and fierce. Each of Li Shan's attacks carried a fierce momentum, while Wu Feng dodged nimbly, occasionally launching counterattacks. Time passed, and whoever could hold on to the end would be the victor in this life-and-death contest.
Just then, Wu Feng suddenly noticed that Li Shan's swordsmanship had slowed down. His eyes lit up, and he immediately seized this opportunity to launch a fierce attack.
Li Shan was shocked and wanted to defend, but it was already too late. Wu Feng's sword shot out like lightning, piercing through Li Shan's defenses and directly striking his chest.
Li Shan groaned, his face pale, and the blade in his hand fell to the ground.
Wu Feng did not press his advantage, but instead timely retracted his sword, took a step back, and quietly looked at Li Shan.
Li Shan clutched his chest, blood seeping from between his fingers, and looked at Wu Feng in disbelief: "You're not killing me?"
Wu Feng smiled slightly: "Yes, this sword only injured you, it won't endanger your life."
Looking at Wu Feng who didn't kill him, Li Shan asked in surprise: "Why?"
Wu Feng revealed a look of disdain: "You didn't think I was really going all out, did you? Your swordsmanship is indeed fierce, and in the end, it was even as violent as mine, but there is still some gap. The Sect Master didn't let me kill you, what can I do?"
Years of blood qi cultivation had allowed Wu Feng to master his blood qi with ease. On the first day after being injured, he directly stepped into the peak of Blood Refinement Completion, only a step away from Bone Refinement.
Fighting Li Shan was also Cheng Feng's intention, only because Li Shan was a sentimental man. Wu Feng didn't know the rest.
Li Shan wanted to ask more questions, but the battle on this wide, straight road was already over.
In this fierce battle, although the Green Bamboo Gang's reinforcements were numerous, they suffered heavy losses under the tenacious resistance of the Hongmen disciples.
Xu Miao, who was in the shadows, also contributed greatly, wielding the Dark Night Blade that Cheng Feng had given her. Like a dancer wandering in the crowd, the black night was her stage, blood was her accompaniment, and blood was drawn with every strike. Xu Miao specifically targeted martial artists, blood staining the earth red, and corpses piled up into a small mountain.
All of this, under the moonlight, seemed incomparably enchanting.
The Hongmen disciples also suffered huge casualties, many of them falling into the pool of blood, forever closing their eyes.
A strong smell of blood permeated the wide straight road, making people nauseous. Shouts of killing, screams, and the clanging of metal intertwined, forming a tragic symphony. This land had been soaked in blood, as if telling the cruelty and ruthlessness of mankind.
However, it was finally over. A portion of the Third Hall disciples were left to guard the prisoners, and the rest were organized to continue defending the road.
At the other two road nodes, because Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi had already received Cheng Feng's instructions, they did not intend to fight the enemy to the end, but instead adopted flexible and changeable tactics. Whenever the Green Bamboo Gang disciples gradually approached, they would retreat from the scene in an orderly manner, and then set up ambushes again in other places.
The strength of the branch halls on these two roads was far inferior to that of the road where Li Shan was located. The strength of these branch hall members varied, scattered here and there.
Only a few of them had reached the Skin Refinement Completion realm, but for Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi, solving them was easy. Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi showed great strength, dealing with these enemies in a simple and direct manner.
According to the information provided by Black Ear, for those who were extremely wicked and unforgivable, Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi would mercilessly execute them directly;
As for those whose behavior was relatively less serious or excessive, Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi would deprive those who were left behind of their freedom of movement, and arrange for disciples to guard and supervise them. Hoping to absorb them into the Hongmen in the future to strengthen the Hongmen's strength.
In this way, Eight Hundred and Cheng Yi's side always maintained a high degree of vigilance and mobility, constantly creating trouble for the enemy, making it impossible for them to easily break through the defense line.
Repeatedly, the Green Bamboo Gang's reinforcements fell into a passive situation. They began to feel exhausted and demoralized. The disciples led by Eight Hundred took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, inflicting heavy blows on the enemy. The Green Bamboo Gang's reinforcements gradually realized that they had fallen into a trap. They were furious, but helpless.
The black night was the best protective color. The Hongmen disciples seemed to be everywhere, and no one knew whose life the dark knife would reap in the next moment. The Green Bamboo Gang disciples, holding torches, also began to be cautious and vigilant.
Seeing this, Eight Hundred and others breathed a sigh of relief. They knew that although this operation was extremely thrilling, they had finally completed the mission.
Delay, even if it's a victory.
