Chapter 44: Using bamboo as a spear in a bloody battle in the alleys (Second)
When the pole had split into separate pieces, Wang Chao instantly parted away from it and began to attack the entire group as if a tiger within a pack of wolves, forcing everyone to cry out.
When the pole had splintered and broke, many of the splinters flew into so of the people’s eyes and noses. Imdiately, two of the n fell to the ground with their faces badly hurt.
At the sa ti, Wang Chao continued to try to force his way through the crowd, sliding in and out like a greased eel. Suddenly, one of the n that was pushed to the ground lashed out his arm and grabbed onto Wang Chao’s leg.
After being grabbed, Wang Chao’s footwork had been disrupted and his foundation rocked, allowing for two n to bring down their axe onto his back. Realizing the situation had just gotten worse, Wang Chao grabbed onto two pieces of the splintered pole and brought it behind him. But because of how hasty he was, the axes had swung the poles back down to the ground.
Now Wang Chao was completely barehanded. With a furious kick, he smashed his foot into the man holding onto his leg in the face. The man’s head snapped back as blood began to pour out from his nose mouth and sprinkled the snow with it.
Killing a man with just a kick, Wang Chao threw off the hand before seeing the bright glint of steel co at his head.
Reacting quickly, bang! With the “Bear Strikes the Tree”, Wang Chao’s right hand had clamped onto the wrist of the other man. Stopping the montum of the hand with the axe, Wang Chao then used his shoulder to send the man flying backwards.
But because of this delay, the people coming up from behind quickly caught up.
Pch! A single axe arced across him, causing the bright blade to slash a hole across Wang Chao’s clothes and leaving behind a single cut line.
Wang Chao had only felt the cold blade across his body before it began to hurt. The hot yet wet blood began to flow down from his back to his waist to his leg, allowing Wang Chao to know that he had been finally injured.
“Hssshhh!” After the axe left his body, Wang Chao felt a stinging pain as the Qi began to escape his body. But with another breath, Wang Chao adjusted his pores.
But just then, another three axes ca flying at him before Wang Chao could even have ti to rest.
After seeing his own blood, Wang Chao began to grow extrely determined. Sliding his feet and bending his body, he dodged the three blades swiftly. Then, grabbing an axe with his hand, he stabbed into the waist of one of the three.
Blood splurted out from his mouth as the man felt his waist get stabbed into. His entire body slackened as if all of the muscles in his body had gone soft.
Bagua Zhang had evolved from the thodology of a blade. With his hands on a blade, Wang Chao had a weapon once more. With the power of Bagua, he was like a tiger with wings. His strength was doubled and so anyone that was hit by this would surely perish.
But this was an axe, its point was not sharp at all so it could not inflict as much damage. Although Wang Chao had driven it in by stabbing, when he tried to pull it out, only blood could be seen splurting out. It seed that it was stuck and was not yet fully out.
This single action had been swift and extrely fast. In a fight to the death, Wang Chao’s everyday practicing and potential could finally be seen in its full glory.
Needless to say, this was the very first ti Wang Chao had seen such a fierce battle to the death. It was completely different than his everyday spars. Whatever styles, whatever thods, everything had been broken up. Only could only rely on their own agility and strength in order to pick up the weak spots of his enemies.
Just as he was prepared to pull out the axe, the other n had ca back towards Wang Chao, their axes aid at his hand, shoulder, and head.
Unable to pull out the axe, Wang Chao let go of the handle and leapt backwards. Seeing another axe on the ground, he kicked it up and clasped onto it.
He had killed seven people with a bamboo pole, struck one person away, and stabbed another person to death. At this mont, there were only 3 people left not including the other dozen people still a few ters away.
“No good, if those n catch up, then I’ll definitely die on the streets!” Wang Chao grabbed at the axe until his hand was number before leaping forward. His legs were already a little weaker than usual, so his legwork was not as stable as before, but he could still glide across the snow.
“This is because of the weakening of my body. I can’t continue fighting like this, when that axe struck , I lost so of my Qi.”
When he was struck, Wang Chao’s pores had been loosened, allowing so of his Qi to be released as sweat. Right now in such a fierce battle to the death, he would not be able to support himself for long. But these three n right in front of him were like an impassable wall and blocked his path.
The three n brandished their axes as they approached.
Steeling his heart, Wang Chao straightened his back and bent his body to endure the attack!
Three deep and bloody marks appeared on his arms and shoulders.
With a swipe of his arm, the axe streaked across the two n’s necks. Their throat had been sliced open and their windpipes reduced to fountains of blood. Wang Chao had allowed himself to be cut into three tis in order to kill two.
Needless to say, a fight with one’s life on the line would make a man grow. A coward would only wish to survive, and they would beco reckless in their attempt to stay alive. With such a fight, Wang Chao had already made use of Bagua to the point of proficiency.
After killing several n, Wang Chao’s eyes had gone bloodshot.
As Wang Chao advanced with a nacing air, the remaining few people had finally begun to feel dread. Taking several steps back, they allowed for a space to open up in the alley.
Wang Chao’s eyes lit up as he renewed his efforts in escaping once more. Just at this mont, the dozen people chasing from behind had caught up. If they were just one step further, then they would have been able to ensnare Wang Chao once more.
If only the remaining people from the first group hadn’t shown fear and tried to brave it out for a few more seconds, then Wang Chao would have been stuck.
From this, it could be seen that the axe wielders had not yet been trained to the point where even a battle to the death does not frighten them. They were not yet at the level of Zhang Tong’s second-rate rcenary bodyguards in terms of ntality.
“Goddamnit it all!” Seeing Wang Chao dash away from the alley, the group didn’t give chase. After all, the main roads had plenty of people, traffic signals, and caras. If a group were to chase after a single person, then there would be no way for trouble to not co.
Wang Chao continued to run in every direction without pause. It was only after his legs had gone weak and his body losing most of his Qi that he had finally stopped.
He could only feel his weak arms limp at his side with blood dying his clothes red.
Seeing how no one was chasing after him, Wang Chao let out a sigh in relief before completely letting down his guard. If he hadn’t staunch the bleeding, then who knows when he would have collapsed on the road.
In this condition, he couldn’t even ride a taxi. Even worse, when Wang Chao searched his pockets, he realized that his phone had fell when he was fighting.
Looking all around the snowy area, he could only see the road with trees on both sides. The street lights were dimly lit, and there was no one in sight.
Just at that mont, Wang Chao saw a girl coming out from a nearby internet cafe. Just like an arrow, Wang Chao shot towards her, causing the girl to scream out in fright.
Covering her mouth, Wang Chao hissed, “Do you have a phone, let borrow it!”
The girl had only rolled her eyes into the back of her head and fainted straight away. Slowly placing her on the ground, Wang Chao found her cell phone and quickly pressed in Zhang Tong’s number.
“I was attacked by several n in an alley and was chopped at. After killing several and running away, I can’t move anymore because of my wounds!” As soon as there was an answer, Wang Chao imdiately spoke out his situation.
“What, you were chopped at? Where are you now?” Zhang Tong spoke up in shock.
“Daxing Street.” Wang Chao looked for the closest street sign.
“Alright, just wait, I’ll be there straight away!”
Hanging up the phone, Wang Chao could no longer feel any Qi left in his body.
