Bai Huipeng’s full burst of power directly affected him through the air transmission, that aura made Nangong Ming’s entire body boil with excitent.
It’s here, the feeling is here!
As Bai Huipeng, who was dashing forward at high speed, also noticed sothing off about Nangong Ming. In his perception, the opponent seed to be getting younger.
However, he did not retreat. In an instant, he arrived in front of Nangong Ming, and his already clenched fist smashed towards the other’s head!
Just when Bai Huipeng thought that Nangong Ming would either dodge or block, his fist was only a few centiters away from the other’s eyelid. At that mont, he felt the world before him turning upside down. The other party did not dodge or avoid, but directly caught his wrist, the body bent, and from Nangong Ming’s grip on his hand, Bai Huipeng felt a force only comparable to his own!
Quickly, Bai Huipeng realized sothing, his complexion drastically changed. The other party was not using much strength; he was using Bai Huipeng’s own force against him!
Nangong Ming’s body slightly bent, his steps fluttered, and in an instant, he switched positions with Bai Huipeng. Then, very cleverly, using the force from Bai Huipeng’s swing and montum forward, he exerted a light pressure.
It was a surge of power that sent Bai Huipeng flying, the devastating force that ensued was all Bai Huipeng’s own doing, while on Nangong Ming, the erging destruction was practically negligible.
Just like that, Bai Huipeng was flung away, baffled, through several buildings, causing two of them to collapse with a thunderous roar.
When he climbed out of the collapsed rubble, dusty and disheveled, he saw Nangong Ming standing not far away, hands behind his back, looking at him with no urgency or impatience.
His eyes narrowed; upper lip touched the lower, and he uttered two grave words.
"Warrior!"
Yes, Nangong Ming was a warrior, knowing how to deftly use his power. If Bai Huipeng’s previous strike was entirely based on his past combat experience, then this old man was simply crushing him with combat skill.
"Good insight. I started martial arts training when I was seven years old, and it has been over a hundred years now."
"Over a hundred years? How old are you this year?"
Bai Huipeng was sowhat baffled. To have trained in martial arts since seven years old for over a century, could it be that he’s one of those who nearly lived a hundred years? Generally speaking, people have trouble walking when they hit a hundred, but Nangong Ming didn’t look anything like one foot in the grave.
He appeared to be only in his sixties or seventies.
"I’m a hundred and eight this year."
"It seems you really are hard to kill."
"I know what you’re thinking. Indeed, soone half in the grave like shouldn’t be wandering around outside, but young friend, you may not know that the higher the level of a new human, the longer their lifespan. I thought it was ti to be taken by the Lord of the Underworld, but who knew, heaven gave another chance."
"Alright, now that we’re enemies, we shouldn’t continue chatting like this."
"Indeed, then let us continue."
As he spoke, Bai Huipeng once again assud an attack stance, looking seriously at his own, while Nangong Ming still had a calm expression on his face, hands clasped behind his back, as tranquil as before, and waiting for Bai Huipeng to make the first move!
Bai Huipeng imdiately realized this was soone who preferred to counterattack. However, he didn’t foolishly choose not to strike just to avoid a disadvantage. In the tis before the Apocalypse, due to legal constraints, he might have fought only once or twice a year, but in the Apocalypse, especially in the early stages, he could fight as many as a dozen tis a day. The more he fought, the clearer it beca that the best defense is offense, constantly being on the defensive would only lead to a slow downfall.
From a distance, the figure of Nangong Ming standing with his hands behind his back seed utterly tranquil, but his eyes, like two sharp swords, fixed on Bai Huipeng. Initially, Bai Huipeng wanted to charge forward and fight a tumultuous battle, but noticing those eyes, he imdiately suppressed the impulse in his heart.
Seconds ticked by and finally, Bai Huipeng sidestepped, moving to one side. Nangong Ming’s figure also turned, facing him squarely from start to finish.
Bai Huipeng took another step, facing him squarely head-on. In this way, Bai Huipeng circled around Nangong Ming, searching for the most advantageous opportunity to launch an attack.
Suddenly! Bai Huipeng moved! In an instant, transforming into a shadow, he swung his fist—hard as iron—straight towards Nangong Ming’s face!
Starting with a killing move, not holding back in the slightest.
Nangong Ming’s eyes followed the swiftly approaching shadow, his expression growing serious. In a flash, as they collided, a long-quiet storm once again whipped into frenzied motion, the wind surged, and clouds of dust were lifted into the sky, clearing the area quite a bit.
This ti, Bai Huipeng was cautious, not underestimating his opponent just because he was an old man whose physical strength and abilities couldn’t keep up with his own. Just the fact that he was a warrior was enough to make Bai Huipeng extrely vigilant.
They were only about a hundred ters apart. When Bai Huipeng sprinted with the speed of a Level 6 New Human, the distance between him and Nangong Ming closed at an unbelievable rate!
As he drew near, Bai Huipeng threw a punch without looking to see where his fist would land. Instead, he focused on Nangong Ming’s figure, fully attentive to his opponent’s subsequent moves.
As expected, just as his fist was about to hit Nangong Ming’s forehead, Bai Huipeng saw him move. Nangong Ming shifted his body to what seed to be the right side from Bai Huipeng’s perspective, aiming to dodge the punch and create an opportunity to counterattack.
But Bai Huipeng didn’t give him the chance. Their battle was fought with the full extent of their abilities! Giving the opponent any chance ant paying the price of severe injury!
Fortunately, Bai Huipeng hadn’t put all his concentration on that one strike. As Nangong Ming reacted, Bai Huipeng imdiately spun his body around. His swiftly moving figure abruptly paused, lightly tapped the ground with his toes, causing the cent to explode with a "pop." Bai Huipeng leapt up, adjusting his form and lifting his leg, aiming a heavy blow at Nangong Ming, who was repositioning himself below!
The opponent was sowhat surprised, but this was still within Nangong Ming’s reflexes. Nangong Ming quickly withdrew the foot he had initially moved forward and stepped back, the destructive leg from his opponent narrowly missing his nose. The powerful wind pressure generated flung Nangong Ming’s white hair into the air.
