When Tiger and the others heard Xu Guang's words, they did not stop. Instead, they continued forward. Thugs are generally followers, and as their footsteps grew firmer, the ferocity on their faces became evident.
Xu Guang took a deep breath, and in a flash of lightning and fire stone, he advanced the White Crane Longevity Technique to Level 3 (1/400).
There was no intention to pause.
(400/400)!
White Crane Longevity Technique Level 3 achieved perfection.
This was already at the level of almost breaking through the Eighth Grade Minor Cultivation.
He took out a ginseng pill just refined by Fang Cheng and swallowed one.
A total of more than ten pills were refined. With his growth rate, as long as he changes his profession to pharmacist, he won't be short of such ginseng pills.
The violent Qi blood power surged within him, but he had no time to refine it.
A strange flush appeared on Xu Guang's face.
Finally, those thugs stood in front of Xu Guang, a dense crowd. As they approached, the leading few simultaneously threw a cloud of white stuff at Xu Guang, accompanied by a strange pungent smell.
Xu Guang, like a white crane, leaped up impossibly with the help of the wall, avoiding the lime thrown from above.
The number of villains increased. Xu Guang clenched his fists and swung them in the air, suddenly snatching a stick from one man's hand and landed forcefully.
After the Eighth Grade, even Xu Guang didn't know how greatly his strength had increased.
The feedback from the Elephant Contract further boosted his strength, and the natural growth after the Eighth Grade...
It's no exaggeration to say that his current arm strength exceeds three thousand pounds!
A full-force strike...
Bam!
The head of the villain he struck exploded with a boom, the skull almost completely shattered, while the jaw seemed like a nail embedded into the chest.
The whole person suddenly seemed a head shorter.
Just one strike.
The scene suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked at Xu Guang with a sudden fear in their eyes.
This person...
What kind of strength does he possess!
Feeling the surging violent Qi blood within him, Xu Guang had an unprecedented urge to vent.
Since fleeing from Taizhou, being assassinated by Zhu Huai in the Zhu Family, and being swept along by all sorts of major events, unable to move an inch, the repressed situation finally made Xu Guang feel a sense of cathartic pleasure at this moment.
His eyes grew a hint of blood color.
Fists flew, and so did he.
As the fight continued, Xu Guang's punches became more vicious and heavier. With White Crane Ladder Cloud Soaring in his grasp, he was like a nimble celestial crane in the crowd, each move exuding an immortal aura.
Tiger rushed to Xu Guang, with fear and frenzy in his eyes, swinging his long knife fiercely.
"Die!"
The attack came down like a violent storm.
The wind swirled chaotically, but in the next moment, Tiger felt a cold sensation over his entire body.
He only felt that his long knife didn't strike human flesh, but rather a stack of thick cowhide, full of resilience, similar to fish scales, with a peculiar slipperiness that absorbed most of the knife's force.
Crack!
Xu Guang squinted, turned, and swung a fist.
With a booming sound, Tiger's head exploded, red and white spraying everywhere.
"What... what technique is this!?"
Wei Family's Xu Feng, highly anticipated by Haozi, asked with a halting tone.
"Horse Tail Swishes at the Hawk!"
Xu Guang's answer came, followed by a string of technique names.
"Elephant Kick!"
Crack!
Xue Feng from the Wei Family showed a flash of panic on his face, but at the crucial moment, he grabbed someone and threw him forward to shield himself.
One kick.
Broken leg.
His complexion changed dramatically, stepping back while shouting.
"Use all means at your disposal."
Immediately followed by a clattering, under the setting sun, several objects gleaming flew out, accompanied by bursts of lime exploding in the air.
At this moment, Xu Guang, with adrenaline pumping, had no panic, instead rushed towards the crowd, whipping his coat to charge forward.
A large amount of lime powder and hidden weapons were rolled up and wrapped by his coat.
Seeing figures before him, without even looking, he clenched his fists and smashed forward.
Although Eighth Grade strength is very strong, facing such a large number of thugs, he would inevitably fall to a disadvantage.
But Xu Guang was inherently not a normal Eighth Grade, combined with the tremendous strength feedback from the Elephant Contract, his strength was more than twice that of typical Eighth Grade.
Ordinary people entering the Eighth Grade, having a strength of over a thousand pounds is considered a talent, while Xu Guang's strength is three thousand pounds!
No one in front of him was of the Eighth Grade.
The martial artist talent Horizontal Pressure took effect, he fought more bravely, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep.
One punch, one opponent.
[Martial Artist's Log: Unbelievable Horizontal Pressure, extreme violence, and hot-bloodedness, Martial Artist Experience +10]
Each kill netted him 10 experience points.
These people were already cowed by him, killing them now yields 10 experience points, already a proper use of trash.
So Xu Guang went even more insane; he didn't even dodge, letting the rain-like sticks strike from all directions.
After a while.
Suddenly, Xu Guang's body was wrapped by a tremendous force, pulled into the air in a way he couldn't resist.
Then, he landed on something solid.
Feeling the rough long hair beneath him, Xu Guang knew that General Wei had arrived.
He activated the White Crane Longevity Technique, calming his inner breath, the blood color in his eyes slowly dissipating, and looked down.
The alley was awash in blood, without a single intact corpse!
Only a few remained, huddled in the corner, shivering, gazing at General Wei and Xu Guang atop him with an expression of fear.
Xu Guang regained his composure, "Who are your people?"
As he asked, General Wei slowly stepped forward, stepping on a corpse, and like a cream puff bursting, blood spattered out like flowers.
The fear in their eyes was indescribable, one person even fainted from the shock.
General Wei gently lifted his right forefoot, letting it drop.
The fainted person would never speak again.
"Don't play dead, and don't try any clever tricks."
'Are we pretending?' the few exchanged despairing glances.
"We are of the Wei Family, you can't kill us."
Xu Guang nodded.
"So... members of the Wei Family."
General Wei moved forward, his long trunk rolling up the few.
Xu Guang dismounted from the elephant's back, rubbing his fists.
These were all experience, he better do it himself.
This battle left Xu Guang quite pleased with the power he exhibited.
He was also satisfied with the gains.
The thugs who attacked him totaled seventy-six; the log panel showed he killed fifty-three, and General Wei killed twenty-three, with no one escaping.
Experience gained... 630 points!
"General Wei, deal with the corpses."
At his words, General Wei went forward and crushed the bodies, eliminating any traces of Xu Guang's involvement.
...
About half an hour later.
Finally, some civilians nearby who heard the fighting cease gathered the courage to enter the alley.
Almost instantly, they were nearly overwhelmed by the extreme stench of blood!
They immediately saw the horrifically chaotic scene of bodies strewn around the alley like a nightmare!
Thus, the person scrambled out of the alley, their face pale.
They hurriedly ran to the gathering point of the Iron Armor Sect's outer disciples not far away.
With the collapse of the Imperial Court, various regions governed themselves. Those in power came from various sects and gate valves, and the streets were under the management of Iron Armor Sect disciples.
That night, Iron Armor Sect disciples arrived, instructing nearby civilians to throw each corpse into a pit dug in wasteland.
Thus, the matter was considered concluded.
The way those bodies met their end was truly miserable, seemingly crushed by something. Such terrifying presences, even the disciples of the Iron Armor Sect wouldn't pursue relentlessly.
In these troubled times, being able to keep to oneself is already an accomplishment.
