Using bamboo as a spear in a b.l.o.o.d.y battle in the alleys (Second)
When the pole had split into separate pieces, w.a.n.g Chao instantly parted away from it and began to attack the entire group as if a tiger within a pack of wolves, forcing everyone to cry out.
When the pole had splintered and broke, many of the splinters flew into some of the people’s eyes and noses. Immediately, two of the men fell to the ground with their faces badly hurt.
At the same time, w.a.n.g Chao continued to try to force his way through the crowd, sliding in and out like a greased eel. Suddenly, one of the men that was pushed to the ground lashed out his arm and grabbed onto w.a.n.g Chao’s leg.
After being grabbed, w.a.n.g Chao’s footwork had been disrupted and his foundation rocked, allowing for two men to bring down their axe onto his back. Realizing the situation had just gotten worse, w.a.n.g Chao grabbed onto two pieces of the splintered pole and brought it behind him. But because of how hasty he was, the axes had swung the poles back down to the ground.
Now w.a.n.g Chao was completely barehanded. With a furious kick, he smashed his foot into the man holding onto his leg in the face. The man’s head snapped back as blood began to pour out from his nose mouth and sprinkled the snow with it.
Killing a man with just a kick, w.a.n.g Chao threw off the hand before seeing the bright glint of steel come at his head.
Reacting quickly, bang! With the “Bear Strikes the Tree”, w.a.n.g Chao’s right hand had clamped onto the wrist of the other man. Stopping the momentum of the hand with the axe, w.a.n.g Chao then used his shoulder to send the man flying backwards.
But because of this delay, the people coming up from behind quickly caught up.
Pch! A single axe arced across him, causing the bright blade to slash a hole across w.a.n.g Chao’s clothes and leaving behind a single cut line.
w.a.n.g Chao had only felt the cold blade across his body before it began to hurt. The hot yet wet blood began to flow down from his back to his waist to his leg, allowing w.a.n.g Chao to know that he had been finally injured.
“Hssshhh!” After the axe left his body, w.a.n.g Chao felt a stinging pain as the Qi began to escape his body. But with another breath, w.a.n.g Chao adjusted his pores.
But just then, another three axes came flying at him before w.a.n.g Chao could even have time to rest.
After seeing his own blood, w.a.n.g Chao began to grow extremely determined. Sliding his feet and bending his body, he dodged the three blades swiftly. Then, grabbing an axe with his hand, he stabbed into the waist of one of the three.
Blood splurted out from his mouth as the man felt his waist get stabbed into. His entire body slackened as if all of the muscles in his body had gone soft.
Bagua Zhang had evolved from the methodology of a blade. With his hands on a blade, w.a.n.g Chao had a weapon once more. With the power of Bagua, he was like a tiger with wings. His strength was doubled and so anyone that was. .h.i.t by this would surely perish.
But this was an axe, its point was not sharp at all so it could not inflict as much damage. Although w.a.n.g Chao had driven it in by stabbing, when he tried to pull it out, only blood could be seen splurting out. It seemed that it was stuck and was not yet fully out.
This single action had been swift and extremely fast. In a fight to the death, w.a.n.g Chao’s everyday practicing and potential could finally be seen in its full glory.
Needless to say, this was the very first time w.a.n.g Chao had seen such a fierce battle to the death. It was completely different than his everyday spars. Whatever styles, whatever methods, everything had been broken up. Only could only rely on their own agility and strength in order to pick up the weak spots of his enemies.
Just as he was prepared to pull out the axe, the other men had came back towards w.a.n.g Chao, their axes aimed at his hand, shoulder, and head.
Unable to pull out the axe, w.a.n.g Chao let go of the handle and leapt backwards. Seeing another axe on the ground, he kicked it up and clasped onto it.
He had killed seven people with a bamboo pole, struck one person away, and stabbed another person to death. At this moment, there were only 3 people left not including the other dozen people still a few meters away.
“No good, if those men catch up, then I’ll definitely die on the streets!” w.a.n.g Chao grabbed at the axe until his hand was number before leaping forward. His legs were already a little weaker than usual, so his legwork was not as stable as before, but he could still glide across the snow.
“This is because of the weakening of my body. I can’t continue fighting like this, when that axe struck me, I lost some of my Qi.”
When he was struck, w.a.n.g Chao’s pores had been loosened, allowing some of his Qi to be released as sweat. Right now in such a fierce battle to the death, he would not be able to support himself for long. But these three men right in front of him were like an impa.s.sable wall and blocked his path.
The three men brandished their axes as they approached.
Steeling his heart, w.a.n.g Chao straightened his back and bent his body to endure the attack!
Three deep and b.l.o.o.d.y marks appeared on his arms and shoulders.
With a swipe of his arm, the axe streaked across the two men’s necks. Their throat had been sliced open and their windpipes reduced to fountains of blood. w.a.n.g Chao had allowed himself to be cut into three times in order to kill two.
Needless to say, a fight with one’s life on the line would make a man grow. A coward would only wish to survive, and they would become reckless in their attempt to stay alive. With such a fight, w.a.n.g Chao had already made use of Bagua to the point of proficiency.
After killing several men, w.a.n.g Chao’s eyes had gone bloodshot.
As w.a.n.g Chao advanced with a menacing air, the remaining few people had finally begun to feel dread. Taking several steps back, they allowed for a s.p.a.ce to open up in the alley.
w.a.n.g Chao’s eyes lit up as he renewed his efforts in escaping once more. Just at this moment, the dozen people chasing from behind had caught up. If they were just one step further, then they would have been able to ensnare w.a.n.g Chao once more.
If only the remaining people from the first group hadn’t shown fear and tried to brave it out for a few more seconds, then w.a.n.g Chao would have been stuck.
From this, it could be seen that the axe wielders had not yet been trained to the point where even a battle to the death does not frighten them. They were not yet at the level of Zhang Tong’s second-rate mercenary bodyguards in terms of mentality.
“G.o.dd.a.m.nit it all!” Seeing w.a.n.g Chao dash away from the alley, the group didn’t give chase. After all, the main roads had plenty of people, traffic signals, and cameras. If a group were to chase after a single person, then there would be no way for trouble to not come.
w.a.n.g Chao continued to run in every direction without pause. It was only after his legs had gone weak and his body losing most of his Qi that he had finally stopped.
He could only feel his weak arms limp at his side with blood dying his clothes red.
Seeing how no one was chasing after him, w.a.n.g Chao let out a sigh in relief before completely letting down his guard. If he hadn’t staunch the bleeding, then who knows when he would have collapsed on the road.
In this condition, he couldn’t even ride a taxi. Even worse, when w.a.n.g Chao searched his pockets, he realized that his phone had fell when he was fighting.
Looking all around the snowy area, he could only see the road with trees on both sides. The street lights were dimly lit, and there was no one in sight.
Just at that moment, w.a.n.g Chao saw a girl coming out from a nearby internet cafe. Just like an arrow, w.a.n.g Chao shot towards her, causing the girl to scream out in fright.
Covering her mouth, w.a.n.g Chao hissed, “Do you have a phone, let me borrow it!”
The girl had only rolled her eyes into the back of her head and fainted straight away. Slowly placing her on the ground, w.a.n.g Chao found her cell phone and quickly pressed in Zhang Tong’s number.
“I was attacked by several men in an alley and was chopped at. After killing several and running away, I can’t move anymore because of my wounds!” As soon as there was an answer, w.a.n.g Chao immediately spoke out his situation.
“What, you were chopped at? Where are you now?” Zhang Tong spoke up in shock.
“Daxing Street.” w.a.n.g Chao looked for the closest street sign.
“Alright, just wait, I’ll be there straight away!”
Hanging up the phone, w.a.n.g Chao could no longer feel any Qi left in his body.
