This is a sponsored chapter. Thank you Eric Spencer! You have joined the Hall of Survivor's!

Right when Tiger Lord’s dagger that was about to connect with Liu Gan’s chest. Tiger Lord noticed that Liu Gan’s eyes wererevealing traces of a ridiculing expression, so Tiger Lord knew that something was off. It was as if he fell into a trap.

It’s too late.

The moment the sharp dagger within Tiger Lord’s hand was about to connect Liu Gan’s chest, Liu Gan grabbed the dagger by the blade! Now Tiger Lord couldn’t even connect the blade to the chest of Liu Gan.

The fire axe in Liu Gan’s other hand was immediately coming downwards. It was aiming for Tiger Lord’s head. In a moment’s desperate moment, Tiger Lord pulled away from Liu Gan’s grip and leaped backwards, but he wasn't quick enough. The edge of the fire axe had came in contact with Tiger Lord’s chest creating a large wound while blood was gushing out. Liu Gan’s attack even broke a few of the ribs of Tiger Lord!

“D*mn!” Tiger Lord was holding onto his wound as he retreated back. His pale face showed that he was frightened by Liu Gan. He wondered if his opponent was even human, since the dagger was extremely sharp but he grasped it like he didn’t feel any pain?

The other problem was his hand, clearly he was injured, but there was no blood, not even a hint of red.

Every surrounding player was just as shocked, now they couldn't help but wonder if Liu Gan had iron skin and iron claws? They' all witnessed that Tiger Lord’s swift stab had no effect on him. Evidently, it was clear that in this exchange, Tiger Lord lost his advantage.

Unconsciously, Yin He looked at Liu Gan, then to her own hands. Her skin was really durable since daggers couldn’t pierce it. Now she was wondering, why her master’s hand would be similar to her hand? Could it be possible that they were both the same species?

At the same time, what Yin He was feelingsad since for this wonderful duel, her master didn't call upon her to participate. If she joined in, then in a few minutes, she could finish off Tiger Lord. She had so many options to pick from, either rip him apart from the stomach or behead him cleanly.

This human, Tiger Lord, was just too weak.

Tiger Lord’s expression became gloomier, now he could finally gauge the enemy’s power. He was not Liu Gan’s match, with his heavy axe swings and heavy kicks. Perhaps it was because of Liu Gan’s new ability that could ‘Harden’ the body, Tiger Lord guessed. Liu Gan walked the path of a heavily armored warrior, while Tiger Lord wa following the path of an assassin. Tiger Lord’s path puts heavy emphasis on being quick on his feet and wasreliant on sneak attacks. The moment the two paths clash in combat, the only one with the disadvantage was the assassin.

Tiger Lord never even considered for a moment that his opponent could have a body that is so thick?/hard. What a major miscalculation, and now he had a severe injury from the axe attack. If he continued to fight with Liu Gan it would only prolong his own humiliation, other than that there was no reason to for him fight anymore.

From Tiger Lord’s point of view, if he didn’t want to fight with Liu Gan. Escaping from the battlefield field was still a possible option. He didn’t believe that Liu Gan’s heavy body could catch up to his agile quick steps. However, he would have to give up his camp, that he worked so hard to build, over to Liu Gan. His actions had lost the faith of the people and it was very hard to regain it anew. Now this was what bothered Tiger Lord the most, he just couldn't accept that fact.

Tiger Lord was started to regret the way things have turned out. Wang DeCheng was a very honest person. He was the type of person that didn't know how to lie to others. Judging from what Wang DeCheng said earlier, Liu Gan only wanted to exchange goods, but he what got was insults from Li ChangHui instead. That forced Liu Gan to act against Li ChangHui.

Now that events had progressed to this stage, it was too late to salvage this situation. Tiger Lord could've stopped after he had killed Li ChangHui to resolve the situation and let Liu Gan go even after he had consumed so much of his food. At most, he would've only lost face, but could have still continued his lifeas a local warlord. If only he had stopped at moment… his biggest mistake was attempting a sneak attack at Liu Gan and fighting for the camp. Now, he had no choice but to escape since he had sustained serious injuries.
