Chapter 245 Bloody Counterattack (1/2)
A tiny silver needle flew over, piercing the skin on Xiang Yun's nose.
The needle was shot so close that though the Bald Head’s mouth didn't give it much impetus, it was capable to cause injury.
Xiang Yun dodged this sudden attack with his rapid response capability, but as a result, the Qi gathered on his arms leaked. Without strength against it, the axe he had lifted before chopped down with unstoppable force.
“Ah...!”
A scream, terrible scream, spat the sky, resounding in this area. Everyone was shocked. Fear burst in their hearts then spreading over them from head to toe. Countless men couldn't help trembling.
It was like a demon screaming in the deepest hell.
In the scream mixed a loud hissing noise. It seemed like the sharp axe peeled away a piece of bark, a large piece of bark, from the trunk. Actually, it was not about bark and trunk. The axe peeled off a piece of human flesh.
On the high platform, a long wound stretched from the man's shoulder to his waist, peeling off a large piece of bloody flesh. Blood spurted out with fizzing sound, like thin water column frantically escaping from the cracks in the water pipe.
”Oh my god!”
The scene on the stage was too bloody to watch, making many people in the stands turned their faces away. Even those brave people paled, shivering with terror.
On the stage, the Dragon Group's Perfection Stage Expert－Xiang Yun－looked at his body that was cut off, incredulous. The fear of despair spread in his pupil. He could see fresh organs beating in his body clearly.
Suddenly, with a clattering sound, his beating organs were crowded out and dropped from the wound.
“Ah...!”
This was the scream of the audience in the stage. In the scream, with a loud bang, Xiang Yun collapsed, falling into the varicolored things on the ground...
”Uh, oh...”
”Wah, wah...”
In the stands, vomiting sounds could be heard everywhere. Some people had already been paralyzed in the chair, pale and unable to breathe. Sweat rushed out from their forehead and slid.
Paramedics on the scene responded quickly. They carried fainted audiences away to give first-aid.
Silence, deathly silence pervaded at the scene. This battle made a longer silence and a more breathtaking scene, because the process was too bloody and horrible instead of fierce.
This was a bloody counterattack.
...
In the stand of Dragon Group, people were stunned, ashen-faced. They were defeated. They were totally defeated in such a bloody way that they could not accept it.
Even Long Taibai's white face, which lacked emotion all the time, was trembling. Ferocious anger was burning in his eyes, and a murderous look covered his face.
”Boss Long, let me kill him!” Wu Gang with a mask on his face stepped forward to ask for Long Taibai's permission. It seemed that his anger and murderous intention were stronger than Long Taibai.
”Commander Wu, it's unnecessary to kill a fly with a wheel. You are thinking too highly of him. Let me teach him a lesson!” Someone came up to ask for the next fight.
Long Taibai looked at the one came up. He knew this person.
It was Cang Qiu from the Cang Hai Sect, who had entered the middle period of the Perfection Stage for many years. He could even fight with a Perfection Stage Expert of the late period. However, he had already in his forties.
One of the rules of the competition was that competitors must be younger than forty years old. But now, Long Taibai didn't care about the rules at all. He was overwhelmed with the flame of anger which burned the rules into ash.
Long Taibai nodded and approved his request without hesitation.
”You shameless and despicable rat, let me take your life!”
Cang Qiu burst a shout which stunned the audience. The silence on the arena was broken. When people realized what happened, a soft shiny sword had swept toward the Blady's neck in a lightning speed, reflecting cold light under the sun.
At this time the Baldy was still immersing into the astonishment that he made such a bloody scene. He looked at his ”masterpiece” on the ground with his face pale.
Far from the arena, countless people vomited and fainted in the stands. He was the closest and suffered the most visual impact.
As a member of the special troop, he used to perform special tasks abroad all year round. He had seen a bloody scene such like this, but those were made by others so he watched as a bystander. But today's scene was made by himself. This feeling was different. He was not a cold-blooded person and couldn't be indifferent to this. His state of mind was far from the stage that nothing could make him move.
This cruel scene was not out of his intention, but the opponent determined to kill him. He could only be forced to kill him. In a battle of ”either you or I die will die”, such a bloody ending was beyond his expectation.
He was still in shock, but the soft sword had reached close to his neck.
”Watch out!” In the stands, Li Zhanwu jumped up and shouted, and Qin Hao had disappeared before his words ended.
”Ouch!”
Others in the stands also came back to earth and let out a burst of fright.
Looking at his soft sword was going to cut off the bald head, Cang Qiu smirked in pleasure. But when the soft sword just wrapped on the Bald Head's neck and was about to cut it off, a hand appeared and caught the soft sword in a blinding speed, pulling the soft sword away from the Bald Head's neck.
”Ouch!”
The crowd burst out an exclamation. Even Cang Qiu himself was shocked and constricted his pupil. Grasping his sword with a bare hand? He didn't want his hand?
Seeing someone dared to grasp his sword with bare hands, Cang Qiu cruelly sneered, ”You asked for it.”
He turned his wrist to rotate the sword, willing to stir that hand into a lump of meat jam, but what happened the next made him showed an expression of astonishment.
The upper half of the sword rotated, but the lower half didn't－It was held firmly by the hand.
”Go back!”
Cang Qiu let out a cry. He used strength to draw his soft sword back. The sword was straightened but didn't move.
This time, Cang Qiu's face changed, and then he moved his eyes on the owner of the hand.
The owner of the hand was in a sharp military uniform. He had a young and cold face and a pair of cold eyes, wearing an unruly sneer.
Qin Hao, the drillmaster of the Sky Group.
Almost all the members of Dragon Group had heard of Qin Hao. Although not everybody had the chance to see the real one, they had seen him in photos or videos. In the stands they saw Qin Hao sitting next to Li Zhanwu, so Cang Qiu recognized him at a glance.
