It was a thin figure with a gray cloth covering his face, and he looked inconspicuous.
But Xiao Nanhui didn't dare underestimate the enemy, because this man was the one she had just encountered on the fifth floor. As the saying goes, you can't judge a person by appearances. Wasn't there a short, round guy next to her who never lost a fight?
This floor is already the top floor of the Pingxiao Tower. The golden light above the flowing clouds is so bright that people can hardly open their eyes. A wreath made of twenty-four camellia flowers is hung on a hemp rope suspended in the middle. It looks casual everywhere, but it exudes an air of being unattainable.
Having come this far, who would be the one who is easy to deal with?
If she confronts them head-on, she is not without the confidence of winning, but she needs to make a quick decision right now, otherwise if newcomers join the battle, it will inevitably lead to a situation where the fisherman benefits from the conflict while the snipe and the clam fight.
Just now she saw one of the bandits fighting with the other party. Although it was only a short moment, Xiao Nanhui already knew something: this person's skills were far inferior to those three people just now, but his moves were very strange. Even if she relied on the three points of surprise, it would be extremely difficult for her to kill him quickly.
We have come this far. If we give up just like that, won’t all our efforts be wasted?
Xiao Nanhui has a flaw that can't really be called a flaw: she's a bit stubborn. Once she's committed to something, she'll give it a try, even if it means getting hurt.
While she was thinking about countermeasures, the other party was also looking at her, but it didn't seem to take too much time. After determining that Xiao Nanhui would not give in, he quickly adjusted his battle strategy.
The top floor of the wooden tower was already very narrow, and the garland was in the air between the two of them. Because Xiao Nanhui had just climbed up and was a little far away, the man gave up attacking Xiao Nanhui and chose to directly seize the garland.
Xiao Nanhui naturally couldn't let him succeed, so he ran towards the garland.
The closer to the center, the fewer points there were for footholds. Xiao Nanhui simply jumped up, grabbed the man's right leg, and pulled him down from mid-air.
Seeing the garland narrowly missing her fingertips, the man's murderous intent surged. Taking advantage of Xiao Nanhui's inability to extend her arms, he thrust his elbows downwards, striking her back fiercely. Xiao Nanhui, sensing the wind and positioning herself, used her exceptional strength to flip mid-air, raising her right leg to block the blow. However, the man waited for her to reveal her front, then suddenly changed his stance, delivering a cunning left kick.
This move looked very familiar. When Xiao Nanhui was climbing up, he saw someone being hit by this move and falling off the tower. Even if he was lucky enough to grab the landing point, he would still be hit by this move with broken bones and muscles, and would definitely not be able to climb up again.
Xiao Nanhui was at a disadvantage at the moment. Even if he could block the attack in time, he would still fall.
It's a dead end, and if you want to resolve it, you have to use methods that are not afraid of death.
Xiao Nanhui still held the man's right ankle tightly with one hand, and with the other hand, she cut into his flank. This move left no room for maneuver, leaving no room for either the man or herself, because her entire chest and abdomen were exposed to the enemy.
However, the opponent obviously did not expect that Xiao Nanhui would not even block it. When he reacted to the attack on the right side, his instinct to dodge forced him to adjust his body. The fatal kick passed by Xiao Nanhui's chest, and her crisis was broken.
What a great way to survive from the brink of death.
The man stopped and looked at Xiao Nanhui with a different look than before. Although the person in front of him was a woman, she was a hundred times more difficult to deal with than the one who had just fallen. But looking closely, she was already injured. If he just needed to hold out a little longer, he might have a chance of winning.
Xiao Nan had just returned here to catch his breath for a moment when the opponent came up to fight him again. This time he didn't kill him, but it was still very annoying. Harassment from high altitude was not much better than a surprise attack. If he was not careful, he might fall down without anyone else's help.
As the two clashed more and more, Xiao Nanhui's doubts grew. The man before him had undoubtedly received instruction from a master, but his lack of skill clearly didn't stem from a childhood of martial arts training. If he was sent by some force, why would they choose such a person for the fight?
Just as he was thinking about the other party getting close again, Xiao Nanhui suddenly turned around and grabbed the cloth covering his face. The man was startled and turned around to slap him.
This palm strike was obviously out of order, but it was delivered with full force. Although Xiao Nanhui dodged it, a section of the wooden fence behind her was damaged, and a beam under the fence was broken instantly.
After this move was broken, both of them were completely exhausted and had no way to regain their strength and turn around, so they fell heavily on the wooden beam with only one fulcrum left.
Xiao Nanhui was at one end and the man was at the other end, and the wooden beam was like a seesaw under their feet.
However, what Xiao Nanhui had not expected was that this man was even lighter than her. The wooden beam under her feet sank instantly. Xiao Nanhui jumped up and tried to grab the wooden railing next to her, but the man quickly threw a piece of broken wood, and the wooden railing broke into several pieces in front of Xiao Nanhui in an instant. She missed the jump and hit the pillar in the center of the giant tower. The wound that had just been bandaged burst open, and blood gushed out. Her eyes went black, and by the time she reacted, she had already started falling rapidly.
We need to grab something quickly.
Xiao Nanhui flailed her arms, desperately grabbing at anything she could. Her palms were covered in blood, and when she grasped the wooden beam, she slipped. Before she could react, she was already falling, losing her strength. Then her body slammed into the beam below, her internal organs shattering. She endured the pain and barely had time to turn over and hug the beam. Her breath was stained with the smell of blood.
Phew, that’s okay.
The next moment, there was another sound of wind coming from above her head. She quickly dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the broken wood falling from the sky.
