Chapter 73 - Bloodline Limits (1/2)

The rest of the 30 or so Mad Saint members were standing at full alert. Maddy, Kuo, and Hashirama were fighting against the three soldiers in the distance because even though they weren't using any special techniques or powers, the weaker realm soldiers would not be able to withstand the force from their bare punches.

And the reason they weren't using any powerful techniques was that it would draw a lot of attention to them. There were many beasts roaming around the area and using any strong Qi techniques would attract their attention. They would be akin to a bright light in the darkness of the night.

Hao Xuan used his Zanbatou without utilizing any Qi attacked Jiang Ling. Jiang Ling, on the other hand, was not using any weapons at all but instead his bare hands to block all of the attacks.

Each of his punches felt like they had the weight of several tons and after a few strikes, Hao Xuan's hands were becoming numb.

”The hell is this power, he is not even using any Qi to supplement his attacks, just the power of his body is that much?!” the more they fought, the more shocked Hao Xuan became.

”Damn it, if it goes on like this I'll lose,” Hao Xuan gritted his teeth. Jiang Ling, on the other hand, was completely relaxed. He still had the hood but most of his face could be seen, or rather the mask he had on.

”Hmm?” Kuo frowned after trading a few punches with Steel, the Jia leader. ”Why isn't he attacking?”

Back when he had fought against Monk, the fight was really fierce and he had to actually use his full power, but not it seemed like Steel was blocking and attacking once or twice, almost like a robot.

”Wait, where is their fourth member?” he suddenly remembered and then his expression changed in an instant.

”Not good! Cap-”

*BOOM*

Before he could finish a spear came flying straight at him.

”Hngh,” he twisted his upper body in a strange way and barely dodged the spear but then came a golden fist and hit him in the chest at full force, sending him several dozen meters away and crashing down into the ground, creating a hole.

”You're late!” Steel turned towards the treeline behind him and said.

”Sorry, I got lost for a bit,” said a voice and Monk walked out. ”Oh, it's you! How are you still alive?” he looked at Hao Xuan and asked with a surprised expression.

”Well, it doesn't matter, soon you will all be dead,” he smiled.

”With just you? I don't think so,” Hao Xuan looked at him and said calmly.

”No, not just me,” he grinned and from behind him walked about three dozen Jia soldiers in full Iron armor. The four Jia soldiers including Monk were extremely tall, with a height of about 15 feet or 4.5 meters. This new armed regiment was about 10 feet or 3 meters tall on average, looking much smaller comparatively but killing intent was almost pouring out of their bodies which made them look like experienced soldiers.
