Bang bang!
When Old Man Wu's body moved, explosion sounds kept coming from his body, and airflow visible to the naked eye turned into white circular ripples and vibrated away.
Tiny ripples continued to explode as Old Man Wu moved, like the crack of whips.
Li Xiu was a little surprised. The explosion was obviously the sonic boom after the body broke through the sound barrier.
It is not surprising that the speed can break the sound barrier, Li Xiu can do it too. But not everyone can break the sound barrier with every move like Old Man Wu.
It is not difficult to break the sound barrier at a speed, but it is a bit scary that the muscles in Old Man Wu's body can break the sound barrier by moving in a very short distance.
Watching the sonic booms that kept exploding all over Old Man Wu's body, Li Xiu's expression grew slightly more serious.
Being able to break the sound barrier just by shaking the bones and flesh requires not only fast speed, but also extremely strong explosive power and control. Otherwise, just such high-speed muscle shaking will hurt your own body before hurting the enemy.
Buzz!
Old Man Wu started moving, incredibly fast.
Obviously, without the burst of light energy, it is possible to increase the short-distance speed to this level just by relying on muscle strength, which is something that even Li Xiu's S-class body cannot do.
However, Old Man Wu did not use light energy, so Li Xiu did not use light energy either. He changed his steps to dodge Old Man Wu's attacks.
Bang bang bang bang!
Old Man Wu’s fists struck out rapidly, each punch coming with a sonic boom, so fast that it was almost impossible to keep up.
Li Xiu's body swayed left and right, and he kept retreating under the brutal fist shadow.
The gas produced by the sonic boom broke Li Xiu's hair into pieces. If it was a little slower, the gas explosion would have passed by and cut off Li Xiu's hair directly.
Li Xiu retreated again and again, and Old Man Wu bombarded him frantically, with his body twisted into all kinds of incredible angles.
His body no longer looked like that of a human, but more like a steel python. His waist and bones could be twisted to a degree that was absolutely impossible for a human to achieve.
The head can twist in a circle, and the waist and limbs can even be intertwined like numbness, launching attacks from all kinds of incredible angles.
Bang!
Li Xiu was unable to dodge and had to use his arms to block Old Man Wu's fist. As a result, his body was hit hard and he flew into the air and flew backwards more than ten meters before landing on the ground.
Li Xiu only felt the pain in his arms as if the bones were broken, but Old Man Wu had already rushed up with a strange smile, and his python-like arms were twisting towards Li Xiu's neck.
"What a powerful body! Are all the people in the City of Love so strong? These people are definitely not ordinary residents. Why are they here?" Li Xiu thought to himself, but he did not stop, dodging Old Man Wu's weird and terrifying attacks again and again.
Li Xiu retreated again and again, and soon he had retreated to the end of the alley, where he could no longer retreat.
Just when Old Man Wu was about to force Li Xiu into a desperate situation, Li Xiu crossed his feet and suddenly spun backwards, dodging Old Man Wu's fist while punching Old Man Wu in the abdomen.
Bang!
The sonic barrier exploded, and Li Xiu's fist did not touch Old Man Wu's flesh. When he felt his fist was about to hit him, the muscles contracted rapidly, causing a sonic boom, which made Li Xiu's fist ineffective, and then bounced back at a speed that broke the sound barrier, forcibly shaking Li Xiu's fist back.
Li Xiu's body retreated and hit the wall, thus eliminating the rebounding force.
"You should be proud of yourself for being able to hold out against my Hadouken for so long." Old Man Wu licked his lips and stared at Li Xiu with shining eyes like a demon python choosing its prey.
"Is this technique called Hadouken?" Li Xiu leaned against the wall and said calmly to Old Man Wu.
"Yes, I started practicing martial arts when I was three years old. It took me twenty-seven years to train my muscles, bones, and organs to the point where I can control them freely. Now every inch of muscle in my body can burst out with the power to break the sound barrier. This is the ultimate technique for human body control. You should die with your eyes closed after being killed by my Hadouken." Father Wu said enthusiastically, "So, before you die, do you have any last words?"
"This skill is indeed very powerful, but it may not be enough to kill me," said Li Xiu.
"Do you think you can survive by using light energy? I advise you not to do that. If you use light energy, I will no longer restrain my strength, and you will only die more miserably." Every move of Father Wu was oppressive, even his words.
Li Xiu knew that Old Man Wu was not bragging. He could feel that the light energy in Old Man Wu's body was extremely terrifying. It was probably not just light-based, but could even be soul-casting.
Such a powerful man was actually killed by a single blow from the cloaked man. It is hard to imagine how powerful the cloaked man was.
"I don't plan to use light energy. Old Man Wu, can you tell me why a strong man like you would be willing to be a small shop owner here?" Li Xiu asked.
"Go to hell to find the answer." Old Man Wu said, and his whole body made sonic booms and rushed towards Li Xiu. His whole body was a terrible killing weapon. He didn't need to hit Li Xiu with his fists. As long as his body touched Li Xiu, Li Xiu would suffer serious injuries.
Li Xiu knew that it was useless to say anything now and he could only defeat Old Man Wu first.
Li Xiu's expression condensed slightly, and the muscles all over his body suddenly contracted, with the muscles wrapped around his bones like blue veins.
Bang!
Li Xiu's body broke through the sound barrier, dodging Old Man Wu's attack while also launching a sonic boom attack.
Bang bang bang bang!
Li Xiu moved quickly, and sonic booms sounded all over his body. Air rings kept exploding on his body and bombarded Old Man Wu, causing continuous impact sounds.
"You've actually practiced Hadouken as well..." Old Man Wu took two steps back and looked at Li Xiu in disbelief.
The technique Li Xiu just used was surprisingly similar to his Hadouken. It seemed that all the muscles in his body could be controlled to explode with speed and power that broke the sound barrier over a short distance.
"Such skills do not require special training." As Li Xiu spoke, he rushed forward and fought with Old Man Wu.
Sonic booms continued to explode on the two men's bodies, muscles colliding with muscles, bones colliding with bones.
Although Li Xiu's body could not be twisted like Old Man Wu's, his strange angel wing body movements gave him an absolute advantage.
With the same Hadouken, Old Man Wu couldn't touch Li Xiu, but Li Xiu was able to hit his body.
Bang bang bang!
Old Man Wu, who had originally taken the absolute initiative, kept retreating after Li Xiu's attack, and soon he had retreated to the position where the two were before.
roar!
Old Man Wu was shocked and angry. He let out a roar and his whole body was shining. The devilish light like that of an evil spirit condensed on him and transformed into the shape of a one-eyed monster python. He stared at Li Xiu fiercely with his one eye.
The light waves emitted by the one-eyed python bounced back Li Xiu's fist, and it retreated more than ten steps before stopping.
"Didn't you say you don't use light energy?" Li Xiu said as he looked at Old Man Wu from a distance, secretly surprised: "It really is at the Soul Forging Level."
Old Man Wu's face turned red, and the spirit on his body immediately dissipated. He stared at Li Xiu and asked, "Who taught you the Hadouken?"
"You." Li Xiu said.
"Bullshit, when did I ever teach you Hadouken?" Old Man Wu was furious.
“Didn’t you just demonstrate it? Do you really need to learn such a simple technique? It’s enough to just know the principle.” Li Xiu’s words made Old Man Wu’s face turn pale and blue.
It took him nearly thirty years to be able to control the muscles, bones and organs of his whole body to such an extent. This is the skill he is most proud of. He believes that except for him, no other human being in the world can control the body to such an extent.
Now Li Xiu said that you can learn it after watching it, and said that it is a simple technique, which made Old Man Wu almost explode with anger.
"Father Wu, I have no ill will towards you and Xiao Bu'er, and even less towards the City of Love. The real enemy of the City of Love is already on the way and may arrive here tonight. Please make plans early." Li Xiu said.
"Even if the King of Heaven comes, you can only stay by your side in the City of Love." Old Man Wu snorted coldly, without listening to Li Xiu's explanation at all, and pounced on him again.
Bang bang!
Li Xiu was forced to fight back, using Hadouken against Hadouken, and beat Old Man Wu so hard that his entire body exploded.
"Old man Wu, is this all the ability you have? You can't even deal with a young boy?" A gloomy voice sounded beside him.
Even in the battle, Li Xiu could still recognize who the voice belonged to.
The tailor who had terrible skills but was able to make a living in the City of Love was called the blind tailor even though he was not blind.
Li Xiu saw a flash of cold light in front of his eyes, and immediately turned his head slightly. A cold light flew past his face and cut a bloody mark on his cheek.
Father Wu did not take advantage of the situation to attack, but stepped aside, looked at the blind tailor, frowned and said: "Who asked you to meddle in other people's business?"
"You've been defeated so badly. If I don't take action, am I going to watch you, the Fifth Heavenly King, being brutally abused by a young weirdo? That would be too unbearable." The blind tailor laughed.
Father Wu said depressedly: "That kid is very weird, his body movements are extremely strange, it's like he can know what I'm thinking, I can't hit him no matter what, and he can also use Hadouken, it's really weird."
"Only you think those crappy skills are treasures. What's the use of having a well-trained body? It's still just brute force. You'd better look up to me." The blind tailor said as he walked towards Li Xiu.
He was thin and looked a little wretched, with a pale face and extremely pale skin, as if he had not seen the sun all day.
Unlike the muscular Wu Dad, he has almost no muscles visible under his pale skin. If you only look at his appearance, you can hardly tell that he is someone who is good at fighting.
"Boy, listen carefully. You died at the hands of the Shadow Swordsman. Don't report the wrong name when you go to hell." The blind tailor said, and his body moved suddenly. He was as fast as a shadow, and he stretched out his hand to stab Li Xiu's eyes.
Li Xiu used Hadoken, and his fist directly broke through the sound barrier and hit the blind man's fingers.
But the blind man's fingers stopped halfway, and Li Xiu's fist could not reach his fingers at all. Instead, a needle flew out from between the blind man's fingers and pierced Li Xiu's left eye.
The distance was too close, and the needle, as thin as an ox hair, was incredibly fast, so Li Xiu had no time to dodge.
Bang!
A dark death light shot out from Li Xiu's eyes and hit the black needle, changing its flight trajectory and making it fly past him.
"You actually know eye skills. You know a lot, but you are still far from being able to use light energy. That will only make you die faster." The blind tailor said in a sinister voice and stabbed Li Xiu with his finger again.
"You call yourself a shadow swordsman, why do you use needles to attack?" Li Xiu changed his steps and dodged the blind tailor's fingers, not giving him a chance to eject the black needle.
"This needle is my sword, the Shadow Needle Sword." The blind tailor said, and the black needle in his hand suddenly became longer and swept towards Li Xiu's neck.
Li Xiu changed his footsteps, and his Hadouken skills exploded. His muscles contracted at high speed, producing a sonic boom, causing his body to lean back, and he avoided the sweep of the Shadow Needle by a hair's breadth.
The blind tailor approached Li Xiu like a ghost, the shadow needle sword in his hand kept changing, stabbing and slashing, the iron sword was long and short, like a ghost entangled with Li Xiu.
Like Old Man Wu, the Blind Tailor did not use light energy, but only fought with techniques.
Li Xiu kept using Angel Wings to dodge, and no matter how strange the Blind Tailor's Shadow Needle Sword was, it couldn't touch him.
"Hey, this boy is really weird, what kind of body movement is this?" The blind tailor was a little surprised.
"Haha, you're just a blind man, what did you say just now?" Old Man Wu laughed.
The blind tailor became furious and shot out the shadow needle sword in his hand. After Li Xiu dodged it, the shadow needle sword hit Li Xiu's shadow.
Li Xiu's body, which had been moving at a high speed, suddenly stopped there and he was unable to move. He still maintained the posture of raising his legs and taking steps. The facial muscles that had been shaking during the high-speed movement could not return to normal and were still twisted.
"Blind man, you are cheating. Didn't you agree not to use light energy?" Old Man Wu said unhappily.
"I'm not a superstar. I'm just a lowly shadow swordsman. What's the point of cheating? Besides, that kid used light energy once just now, and I used it once too. Isn't this even?" The blind tailor laughed.
As he spoke, the blind tailor had already walked in front of Li Xiu. A shadow needle sword appeared between his fingers, as thin as an ox hair, and slowly pierced Li Xiu's pupil: "Boy, tell me the truth, who sent you to the City of Love? Tell me everything clearly, otherwise you will be unable to live or die."
"Xiao Bu'er's father asked me to come. You are really in danger. There is an extremely scary person who is coming to kill you tonight." Li Xiu sighed.
"Bullshit! Even you, the Lord of Heaven, have no right to be Xiao Bu'er's father. How can she have any father? If you keep talking nonsense, I, a blind man, will skin you alive and then sew your skin back together stitch by stitch." The blind tailor said harshly, and stabbed Li Xiu's pupil with the Shadow Needle Sword in his hand, intending to destroy one of Li Xiu's eyes first.
Bang!
Before the blind tailor's Shadow Needle Sword touched Li Xiu's eyes, a gunshot was heard and a bullet hit his abdomen.
Li Xiushen held his left hand at his waist, with smoke still coming out of the muzzle of the forbidden gun.
The blind tailor held up the needle and stared at Li Xiu in a daze, his face full of surprise. He didn't know how Li Xiu could still move when his shadow was fixed by his Shadow Needle Sword.
If he had not been caught off guard, Li Xiu's shot would not have hit him.
When Old Man Wu saw the blind tailor being shot, he was also a little surprised, but he did not rush over, nor was he too worried. He just stood by and watched.
The blind tailor frowned at Li Xiu and said, "What kind of bullet is this?"
"Healing bullets." Li Xiu retracted the gun, moved his body, and the red and blue light veins on his body gradually disappeared.
His shadow also began to move, and the Shadow Needle Sword no longer had any effect.
"Why not use bullets that kill people?" asked the blind tailor again.
"I've said it before, I'm not your enemy, but your friend. Your enemies will be here soon. Instead of getting entangled with me, you'd better leave the City of Love now. There is still a glimmer of hope." Li Xiu said.
"Nonsense." The blind tailor moved his body and turned into two blind tailors. The blind tailor who was shot gradually disappeared, and the immortal bullet also fell to the ground. It turned out that Li Xiu's bullet hit just an illusion.
"Your tricks can't hurt a blind man like me. If you had used a bullet that killed a person, you would be dead now." The blind tailor said disdainfully: "Even if what you said is true, if you dare to come to the City of Love and act wild, you will only die."
No matter what Li Xiu said, the blind tailor and Old Man Wu didn't believe him, or they didn't need to believe Li Xiu at all. In their opinion, it didn't matter whether it was true or false, and no one could run wild in the City of Love, let alone kill them.
"Since you are not a bad guy, I will spare your life. But get out of the City of Love before tomorrow and don't let me see you again, otherwise I will skin you and make clothes." The blind tailor said and turned away.
Old Man Wu glanced at Li Xiu and turned and left as well.
They did not tie up Li Xiu, nor did they imprison him, nor did they even restrict Li Xiu's freedom. It seemed that in their opinion, there was no need for that at all.
Li Xiu had no choice but to talk to other people, but no one believed him.
"Hey boy, I'm so scared. Can you come to my room tonight and protect me?" After hearing this, the proprietress crawled into Li Xiu's arms as if she was afraid.
"Haha, who's that cloaked man? Just let him come over. I'll help you chop him up and make braised pork." The fat chef laughed when he heard that.
"If there really is such a powerful person, I would like to meet him." Black Knight's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Little brother, don't be afraid, sister will protect you." Kaduo said with a smile.
"I only know how to play the violin. I can't make decisions on such big matters." The violinist said with a smile after listening.
No one believed Li Xiu, or rather, no one cared about the cloaked man that Li Xiu mentioned.
Li Xiu wanted to persuade him again, but it was already late. As night fell, the cocktail party began and the City of Love began to party again.
There were clinking glasses, singing and dancing mixed with laughter.
Li Xiu couldn't persuade them, so he could only make some preparations himself and stayed near Xiao Buer.
Bang!
At almost the same time as last time, the gate of the City of Love was kicked open again, and the cloaked man carrying the stone tablet stepped into the City of Love again, and his footsteps sounded like the death knell.
