Chapter 752 - 750: No Match
However, he underestimated Chen Tianlong. Could those three people really distract Chen Tianlong?
Besides, Chen Tianlong’s fighting style prioritizes speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness; he would never dawdle. So, Hao Kan’s idea of finding an opportunity to ambush was simply wishful thinking.
Sure enough, besides Hao Kan’s three subordinates, who surrounded Chen Tianlong and began attacking with punches and kicks,
when the next moment they realized Chen Tianlong had disappeared.
Undoubtedly, the Ghost Shadow Step was very effective against those whose abilities were below his. This exquisite footwork indeed gave Chen Tianlong a good chance of winning.
As Chen Tianlong escaped the three-man encirclement, he threw three silver needles from his waist, each injected with his Powerful Qi. This way, they directly pierced their meridians. If they were hit, good drama would ensue.
A few seconds later, Chen Tianlong was already standing outside the three, and with a mischievous smile, he said to the dumbfounded Hao Kan: "Alright, they’re no match. Now it’s your turn."
"Huh?"
Hao Kan, hearing this from Chen Tianlong, thought it was a trick. But looking at his three subordinates, they seemed normal, so he shouted, "What are you doing? Three against one and you let him slip away, isn’t it embarrassing?"
"Boss, he’s too fast. We couldn’t react in time." The Yellow Dao two-star expert still didn’t realize he had been hit, and neither did the other two.
"Hehe, I said, those three are already useless, now it’s your turn." Chen Tianlong pointed at Hao Kan and said.
"Damn it! You dare to ignore us. If it weren’t for you running away and not daring to face us head-on, you would’ve been on the ground long ago. How dare you act tough now."
The Yellow Dao two-star subordinate looked at Chen Tianlong with some disdain and said.
"Enough with the nonsense, keep attacking." Hao Kan didn’t like bickering with Chen Tianlong because he couldn’t out-talk Chen Tianlong.
As soon as Hao Kan finished speaking, the three continued to attack Chen Tianlong, but when they tried to exert force, they found themselves inexplicably weak and couldn’t muster their strength.
Immediately puzzled, one of the Yellow Dao two-star subordinates couldn’t help but say, "Boss, I don’t know why, but suddenly I feel weak all over and can’t summon any strength."
"Yeah, me too." The other two echoed.
At this moment, Hao Kan was a bit depressed. Clearly, Chen Tianlong hadn’t acted just now, but why were his three subordinates all having problems?
However, seeing Chen Tianlong’s mischievous smile, Hao Kan knew it must be his doing. So he angrily marched towards Chen Tianlong and said, "Kid, what kind of evil sorcery did you use? Don’t think I don’t know, but none of this works on me. Brothers, attack together."
After speaking, the four of them attacked Chen Tianlong together. Although his three subordinates couldn’t exert full force, they could still fight, albeit with less power than before.
"Stop!"
Just as their fists were about to reach Chen Tianlong, he suddenly shouted.
"Huh?"
Hao Kan was startled by Chen Tianlong’s unexpected shout, nearly dropping to the ground. But upon regaining his composure, he saw Chen Tianlong grinning, realizing he’d been tricked again, and cursed angrily: "****** damn kid, go to hell!"
With that, Hao Kan used all his strength to fly toward Chen Tianlong, his fists swift and fierce, extremely powerful.
But Chen Tianlong wasn’t a fool. He wouldn’t take anyone’s hit that easily unless it was a crucial moment, in which case he wouldn’t face any expert head-on.
As Hao Kan charged, Chen Tianlong dodged with a sidestep, refraining from attacking Hao Kan amid the opportunity since he didn’t consider Hao Kan a significant opponent.
Instead, Chen Tianlong opted for something more amusing; after a turn, using the momentum, he directly retrieved the silver needles from Hao Kan’s three subordinates.
Previously, the three hadn’t noticed anything, but when Chen Tianlong pulled the needles out, they immediately felt a crashing pain in their chests and collapsed to the ground. Their chests had small gory holes, oozing continuous blood.
"Huh?"
Seeing his subordinates collapsing instantly, Hao Kan was astonished. What kind of move was this, striking like a phantom, leaving holes in their chests? If not treated promptly, it could be life-threatening.
"What... what did you do to them?" Hao Kan asked, somewhat frightened by the horrific scene.
"Oh, not much, I just stuck a needle in their chests and retrieved it just now." Chen Tianlong replied with a light smile, treating the ghastly scene on the ground with nonchalance.
After all, they had brought it upon themselves by not only robbing but also attempting to kill and silence. Hence, even if they died, the blame wouldn’t fall on Chen Tianlong.
"You..."
Hao Kan was somewhat exasperated, not knowing how to deal with Chen Tianlong. However, he suddenly regained his composure: as a Yellow Dao five-star strength wielder, why should he fear?
"Heh, Chen Tianlong, don’t think you’re all that just because you took out a few useless subordinates of mine. Don’t forget, I’m the main force." Hao Kan puffed up his chest, regaining his confidence.
Chen Tianlong chuckled wryly, thinking the earlier scene would scare him off, but it hadn’t. Feeling a bit frustrated, he didn’t want any issues arising before tomorrow’s competition. Though his stamina and qi could recover at night, he felt there was no need to waste too much energy.
But Hao Kan wouldn’t leave.
Chen Tianlong didn’t realize Hao Kan couldn’t restrain himself any longer. Thinking of Shen Yan’s enchanting figure, he wouldn’t sleep well at night without having her. Since the matter was exposed, he had to go all out to take down Chen Tianlong and capture Shen Yan.
With this in mind, Hao Kan directly gathered his Qi, fully displaying his Yellow Dao five-star strength, while Chen Tianlong also made preparations for battle.
He knew that Hao Kan was already desperate, and what Chen Tianlong feared most was a cornered beast. Generally, when people reach a point of no return, their bodies erupt with potential power.
"Stop fighting, let’s talk this over." Shen Yan could no longer stand idly by.
"Shen Yan, don’t come over. This man is possessed; today, he will do anything to capture you." Chen Tianlong knew what Shen Yan intended, not wanting things to escalate.
Upon hearing Chen Tianlong, Shen Yan immediately stepped back.
But at that moment, Hao Kan commenced his attack. Impatient, he disregarded his subordinates, but Shen Yan was the one he intended to take away.
