Fang Sihai and Jiang Hong faced off once again.
An intense killing intent permeated the air, like an invisible haze enveloping the entire street.
At this moment, Jiang Hong was fearless, thanks to the crimson-gold soft armor he wore that radiated a mysterious luster.
Aside from offering only a slight defense for his head, he disregarded the rest of his body, launching wave after wave of fierce attacks on Fang Sihai with an almost frenzied attitude.
The crimson-gold soft armor shimmered with an eerie light under the moonlight.
Jiang Hong knew in his heart that he had this solid layer of protection, while Fang Sihai was just a body of flesh and blood and dared not be as reckless as him.
Therefore, in this seemingly mutually destructive exchange, he was certain that he would gain the upper hand.
Every time he drew his sword, he did so with a fierce aura, the blade slicing through the air with a sharp whistling sound.
Fang Sihai was well aware of the gravity of the situation.
Knowing he couldn't fight Jiang Hong head-on, he began to circle around Jiang Hong rapidly, constantly striking with his heavy sword.
While continuously drawing his sword, he kept a close eye on Jiang Hong's every move, his aim being to prevent Jiang Hong from seizing an opportunity to escape.
However, although his sword occasionally managed to pierce Jiang Hong, the seemingly indestructible crimson-gold soft armor acted as an insurmountable barrier, completely neutralizing his attacks and failing to harm Jiang Hong in the slightest.
In contrast, Jiang Hong's longsword was as cunning and ruthless as a ghost, always managing to leave shocking cuts on Fang Sihai's body during the gaps in his sword moves.
In an instant, blood flowed freely from Fang Sihai's body, and the crimson bloodstains spread wildly across his clothes, appearing particularly glaring under the cold moonlight.
Previously, Fang Sihai had been suppressing Jiang Hong, but now the situation has reversed.
"Jiang Hong's crimson gold soft armor is really too powerful. If this continues, Fang Sihai may not be able to hold on and will be killed by Jiang Hong instead."
An elderly man watching couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
"Yes, why isn't Fang Han helping Fang Sihai yet?"
A young man in the crowd looked on with confusion.
"Fang Han is a complete waste. Even if he's not mentally impaired, what help can he be? With his abilities, it would be harder than climbing to heaven to hurt Jiang Hong, who is wearing the Crimson Gold Soft Armor."
A man with a pointed face and monkey-like features sneered, his tone full of contempt.
"This is the foundation! It is said that this crimson gold soft armor was given to him by General Guo Tianyi, the Commandant of Tianyuan County. It is a real life-saving treasure."
Someone in the crowd whispered something, which drew nods from those around them.
As Fang Sihai's injuries worsened, the onlookers began to discuss the matter.
Despite Jiang Hong's despicable act of harming his colleagues, these people still hoped deep down that Fang Sihai would win.
However, the current situation makes everyone feel that Fang Sihai will die at Jiang Hong's hands tonight, his blood staining this desolate street.
Jiang Hong originally intended to seize the opportunity to escape, but when he saw that Fang Han had not made a move, his greed and killing intent instantly surged.
He thought to himself, since Fang Han is not making a move, Fang Sihai will have no help. If not now, when?
Moreover, Fang Sihai already has multiple wounds, and if the fight continues, my advantage will only grow.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hong's eyes grew even fiercer, and his attacks became even more aggressive.
Fang Han's expression remained unchanged throughout, as calm as still water.
He stood quietly to the side, knowing full well that Fang Sihai was not without a chance of winning. He had been waiting for the perfect opportunity, an opportunity that could turn the tide.
In the blink of an eye, dozens more moves passed by in a rapid, whirlwind-like fashion.
As time went on, Fang Sihai's physical strength gradually gave out, and his attack power also declined day by day.
Each time he drew his sword, he seemed to lack strength; the sword's edge was no longer sharp, and the threat to Jiang Hong diminished.
Jiang Hong keenly noticed this change and was secretly delighted.
In his view, as long as he protected his head, Fang Sihai could not harm him in the slightest with the red-gold soft armor he wore, which was as solid as a copper wall.
This emboldened him, leading him to launch an even more ferocious attack on Fang Sihai.
Each of his strikes carried an overwhelming force, as if it were about to tear apart the surrounding air.
Fang Sihai was well aware of his current disadvantage and dared not launch another attack rashly. He could only concentrate all his energy on defense.
His eyes revealed a hint of fatigue, but even more so, a determination and unyielding spirit.
However, even with his best efforts, he gradually found it difficult to withstand Jiang Hong's relentless attacks and was soon forced to retreat repeatedly.
His steps were unsteady, each step leaving a deep footprint on the bluestone pavement.
After more than a dozen moves, Fang Sihai became extremely weak due to excessive bleeding from his wounds.
"Bang!"
Jiang Hong seized the opportunity and suddenly slashed out with his sword. The powerful force surged like a raging wave, directly sending Fang Sihai flying.
Fang Sihai's body flew through the air like a kite with a broken string, tracing an arc before crashing heavily onto the long street several meters away.
The hard ground collided with his body, producing a dull thud that evoked pity in those who heard it.
"Die!"
Upon seeing this, a fierce glint flashed in Jiang Hong's eyes. Like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, he pounced forward, raising his long sword high with boundless killing intent as he slashed out, aiming directly at Fang Sihai's throat.
This strike seemed to sever Fang Sihai's life force completely.
