Chapter 41: Facing a Hundred Alone
Not just Big Bull.
The two opponents facing Jiang Yunhan were also at their wits' end.
Both of them were S-rank ability holders!
Their traits were [Raging Bull Overlord] and [Ant Speed]!
One excelled in strength, while the other dominated in speed!
However, Jiang Yunhan adopted a guerrilla warfare strategy, leaving the two of them completely helpless against him!
Even when they occasionally managed to land a hit, a flash of green light on their opponent would instantly restore his vigor, making him look precisely like a God of War!
Chen Xiao ignored the five S-ranks entirely and charged straight toward the main enemy force.
"These are yours now."
"?"
Jiang Yunhan stared wide-eyed in absolute disbelief.
What did that kid just say!
He was just leaving the five S-ranks alone?!
And handing them over to the two of them?
The next instant, before he even had a chance to refuse, the other two S-rankers had already ambushed him right in the face!
He let out a miserable cry and retreated in a frenzy.
Deep down, Jiang Yunhan began to calculate rapidly.
The strength of these five S-rankers wasn't actually that formidable; they belonged to the very bottom tier of S-ranks!
They were far inferior to the likes of Lv Xingji and Liu Chang'an.
Therefore, he and the young monk certainly stood a fighting chance!
"Little monk, I'll take three, you take two!"
He split the workload, choosing to challenge his absolute limits!
After all, that punk Chen Xiao had already broken through to the front lines, leaving this messy aftermath behind!
This was no easy task; S-rankers weren't a dime a dozen!
Back when he had built such a massive storage base, he only had three S-rank subordinates in total!
Meanwhile, on Chen Xiao's side.
He moved like a flash of black lightning, looking utterly fierce and menacing as he charged directly into the hundred-man troop.
"Charge at him! Show him what we're made of!"
"Does he really think he's Superman?"
"With so many A-rank powerhouses of ours here, not even an almighty SSS-rank being could match us!"
"Hmph, two fists are no match for four hands—does he really think he's Nezha?"
"If you dare charge over here, I'll be the first to hack him to pieces!"
At Xu Yun's command, the main force immediately surged forward to meet Chen Xiao head-on!
He refused to believe that the kid could possibly be so arrogant!
"Bang—"
"Rumble—"
"Clang, clang, clang!"
The moment they clashed, Xu Yun felt a deep sense of dread.
Why did this feel precisely like a wolf leaping into a flock of sheep!
Chen Xiao gripped a long blade made of water tightly in his hand.
The blade shimmered with a deep, ghostly blue luster.
He wove through the enemy ranks!
His movements were as graceful as a startled swan and as agile as a startled dragon!
The blade light bloomed like a water lily, tracing crystal-clear screens of water in the air with his every motion!
Every single swing was as unstoppable as a overflowing river bursting its dikes!
Wherever the blade's edge pointed, the enemies' weapons shattered into fine powder!
The All-Encompassing Water was displaying terrifying combat prowess at this moment!
Capable of both offense and defense!
Rushing forward with the momentum of a thunderbolt to slaughter the entire field!
"Damn it, something is seriously wrong!"
"We can't even land a hit on him; that pathetic water screen is blocking every blow for him!"
"Number Five just got sliced in half by him, and not even a drop of blood came out. What kind of freakish monster is this?!"
"We're done for, this is completely impossible to fight!"
After just a short moment, all fighting spirit among the troops vanished entirely!
This wasn't even human!
Where on earth did this deity come from?
While the rest of them were still developing their supernatural abilities and researching their traits, this guy was straight-up cultivating immortality!
They weren't even living in the same dimension; how was anyone supposed to fight this?!
Xu Yun also noticed this predicament, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.
Why on earth did he have a sudden impulse to tie up Jiang Chuxue, thereby provoking this god of slaughter!
Barely any time had passed, yet his core A-rank troops had suffered heavy casualties and couldn't even manage a counterattack!
Jiang Chuxue's eyes sparkled brightly. Watching Chen Xiao felt precisely like looking at her own idol, and the corners of her mouth curled upward uncontrollably.
"How has he grown even stronger..."
Jiang Yunhan felt deeply ashamed:
〣( ºΔº )〣
He always considered himself a top-tier genius of the apocalypse, but whenever he stood before Chen Xiao, he could never hold his head up high!
Just what on earth had this bastard eaten for his last meal?!
The young monk also managed to snap out of his distraction amidst the joint assault of three opponents, catching sight of Chen Xiao strolling through the enemy lines as if no one else was there.
He was slightly startled: "Could he also be an orthodox successor?"
"Bang!"
Taking advantage of his brief moment of distraction, a fist came hurtling through the air, sending the young monk flying backward.
The young monk performed a 720-degree spin in mid-air before landing steadily on his feet, his gaze turning somewhat hostile: "Looks like I need to get serious too!"
"Slash, slash, slash, slash—"
Amidst the flashing blades and sword lights, Chen Xiao had already slain at least thirty people, and his tally was still rapidly climbing.
The evolution points ringing in his ears soared frantically, reaching a terrifying 6,100 points!
Xu Yun's face turned as dark as charcoal. He never imagined that the apocalyptic foundation he had worked so hard to build would be this fragile.
His five S-rank right-hand men had been effortlessly entangled by two opponents, making it harder than ascending to the heavens just to spare a glance elsewhere!
Thirty-some A-rankers, along with over seventy B and C-rank ability holders!
Weren't even a match for a single man!
How could this apocalypse be so utterly absurd!
Within his terrified gaze, a sudden flash of ruthlessness surfaced as he continuously stepped backward.
"You forced this on me!"
"Fire squad, open fire!"
The next second, at the very rear of the hundred-man troop, lay Xu Yun's ultimate trump card—firearms!
True assault rifles!
"Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!"
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"
"Tat-tat-tat-tat-tat-tat!"
The situation instantly reversed!
This was the crystallization of modern technology!
Bullets rained across the sky, piercing straight through the human wall and spraying toward Chen Xiao, Jiang Chuxue, and the others.
"Oh no!"
Jiang Yunhan was the first to realize something was wrong. Abandoning the three opponents he was locked in combat with, he dashed straight toward Jiang Chuxue.
The young monk was also drawn by the thunderous roar tearing through the skies, and a primal, innate human fear surged from the depths of his heart.
This was the most primitive heartbeat of terror known to mankind!
"Big Brother!"
Seeing Jiang Yunhan throw himself firmly in front of her, Jiang Chuxue felt a wave of warmth wash over her, followed immediately by profound reluctance to part!
Because the air was filled with billowing white smoke and a fierce barrage of gunfire!
The hellish scene was enough to make anyone's heart flutter with terror!
Could her brother really block this?
At the critical moment of life and death!
A massive curtain of water stretching across the horizon abruptly materialized!
Those speeding bullets slammed into the water screen, generating only the tiniest ripples without being able to pierce through it by even a fraction of a millimeter!
This was the ultimate limit of the All-Encompassing Water!
"Water Cage!"
Chen Xiao channeled nearly all of the All-Encompassing Water's power, completely encapsulating the people around him inside it.
"What on earth is this thing?!"
"Is the world we live in still a real world, or have I stepped into a fantasy novel?"
"This is completely ridiculous! Even an AK-47 can't do anything to them?"
"Boss, what do we do now?!"
Chen Xiao's overwhelming methods chilled everyone present to the bone!
Xu Yun felt deeply annoyed by the questioning of his underlings who were buzzing around him like flies.
Did they think he didn't already know that?!
Of course he knew he had kicked a steel plate!
He cursed fiercely in his heart, having already beaten Xu Baichuan a thousand and ten thousand times over in his imagination.
Meanwhile, at the rear of the formation, Xu Baichuan had just cleared his head when he laid eyes on this horrifying spectacle.
Not only had that terrifying man beaten him into such a pathetic state...
He could actually fight a hundred men single-handedly?!
Chen Xiao applied the ultimate defense of the All-Encompassing Water to protect Jiang Chuxue and the others.
As for himself, he chose to engage in direct hand-to-hand combat!
In truth, this was his absolute specialty!
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
Meeting with almost zero resistance, Chen Xiao moved like a demon god, awakening the deepest fears within everyone's hearts.
He directly grabbed hold of the man who had been mouthing off about Jiang Chuxue earlier.
And immediately served him a round of heavy slaps!
The force behind every single strike was meticulously measured, concentrating all the kinetic energy entirely onto the target's mouth.
Viciously knocking out every single tooth inside the man's mouth!
"Mmm-mmm-mmm..."
The man was practically knocked unconscious, trying desperately to plead for mercy through his mouth, but utterly unable to form a coherent word!
"When you choose to humiliate others, you should be prepared to be humiliated in return."
Chen Xiao stated coldly, followed immediately by a few more brutal slaps!
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
After several strikes, the man couldn't endure it any longer and was literally beaten to death on the spot.
Chen Xiao swept his indifferent gaze across the entire battlefield once more.
And caught another target!
"What the hell, are you equipped with an internal calculator or something? Your aim is terrifyingly precise!"
