Chapter 1944 - 1917: You Can’t Escape

Ah!

Nelson couldn’t help but let out a piercing scream, his face filled with horror and confusion. He never imagined that the fish in his net just moments ago would miraculously turn the tables and injure him. Especially the foreign True Qi invading his body made Nelson’s expression twist to the extreme. This power was like a bone-biting maggot, nearly impossible to expel in a short time.

"Nelson, it looks like you can’t escape death tonight."

Lu Tianxing’s tone carried an irresistible murderous intent: "However, rest assured, I won’t let you die so easily. I’ll dismember you bit by bit, leaving you to vanish in pain and despair. That’s the price for daring to harm my woman."

"Is that so? Judge, if you want to dismember me, you’ll have to see if you have the strength to do so."

Nelson’s eyes shot out a cold glint. He suddenly stood up from the ground, but instead of charging at Lu Tianxing, he turned and ran away.

Nelson wasn’t a fool; how could he not understand the current situation? Lu Tianxing’s power was undergoing a tremendous transformation. Staying here would only make him Lu Tianxing’s grindstone, getting worn down to death by him step by step.

Moreover, even if he managed to kill Lu Tianxing, he probably wouldn’t live much longer. The men in black watching from the sidelines would never allow him to leave alive.

So, Nelson chose the best strategy available: to flee. As long as he lived, he’d eventually have the chance for revenge.

As for the threats he’d just uttered, they were merely to make everyone think Nelson was prepared to fight to the death, allowing him to buy some time to escape. Staying behind led only to a dead-end, but running might offer a slim chance of survival. Although fleeing would be a blow to his reputation, compared to his life, reputation meant little.

Watching Nelson escape without regard for his image, Lu Tianxing and Angel, even Shiva, were stunned. None of them expected that Nelson, the captain of the American Superman Team and a top expert at the Late Stage of Mythical, would choose to flee so decisively, completely disregarding his dignity.

Angel and the others were dumbfounded, but that didn’t mean Lu Tianxing was. After a brief moment of shock, Lu Tianxing quickly regained his composure. Without any hesitation, he dashed toward Nelson. One way or another, he must kill Nelson today; leaving alive was not an option.

But compared to Lu Tianxing’s reaction, someone else was quicker. Almost the moment Nelson fled, a man in black, who had been watching Shiva from afar, swiftly moved in the direction Nelson had escaped.

The man in black was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Nelson.

"Get out of my way."

Seeing the man in black blocking his path, Nelson’s face showed a sinister look. With a roar, he raised his fist and struck hard at the man in black.

"Berserk!"

At the moment the punch was thrown, Nelson roared again. Under the power of his Berserk ability, his fist became even more terrifying. As the punch was delivered, it felt like the sky was falling and the ground was cracking apart. Gale-force winds whipped up stones and dirt, seeming to collide with the man in black like a landslide.

The man in black stood his ground, not moving an inch as if he hadn’t seen the fist coming. He merely lifted his sleeve lightly, brushing it gently.

"Bang!"

The roaring fist wind and stones seemed to crash into an invisible wall, producing a crackling sound. Then a fist broke through the fist wind and struck this invisible wall.

When the fist made contact with this invisible wall, Nelson’s face turned extremely ugly. He felt an indescribable terrifying force coming his way, losing control of his body and taking more than ten steps back, leaving deep footprints in the cement ground with each step.

The man in black stood unmoved, as if he hadn’t done anything, as if Nelson had retreated on his own, unrelated to him.

"What a terrifying skill."

Lu Tianxing’s pupils contracted sharply as he watched this scene, surprise written all over his eyes. To the outside observer, it seemed the man in black had simply flicked his sleeve. But Lu Tianxing clearly felt a vast ocean-like power surging out yet not a bit of it spread, only pushing Nelson back. That was the truly terrifying strength.

The vast ocean was boundless, power surging and overwhelming, yet the man in black easily controlled it, not letting any of it leak. Even as Nelson attacked, not a bit of power leaked. This mastery of True Qi was exquisite to an extreme; otherwise, even a tiny leak would have resulted in more than Nelson being pushed back—his arm might have been crippled.

Shiva’s pupils also contracted, clearly sensing the danger in the air. His expression darkened, uncertain, yet he remained still, making it impossible to fathom his thoughts.

"Run, you can’t escape. Just stay where you are peacefully!"

At this moment, the man in black’s calm voice rang out again: "Lu Tianxing, aren’t you going to make a move?"

Hearing the man in black, Lu Tianxing nodded slightly, slowly turning to look at Nelson: "Nelson, it seems you can’t escape. You’re destined to be dismembered by me."

"Judge, don’t be so arrogant. Do you really think you can handle me? Today, I’ll destroy you."

Nelson’s eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Lu Tianxing. He knew he couldn’t escape today. In that case, he might as well drag Lu Tianxing down with him.

"Nelson, let’s see if you have the strength for that."

Hearing Nelson’s words, Lu Tianxing’s eyes narrowed slightly. The spear in his hand vibrated, creating countless spear shadows as dense as a forest, colorful and magnificent like a peacock spreading its tail.

After countless confrontations with Nelson, using him to hone his True Qi, although unable to push himself to the true Late Stage of Mythical, Lu Tianxing’s combat power had significantly progressed. Perhaps if Nelson and Shiva worked together, he wouldn’t be a match, but facing Nelson alone, who would win was uncertain.

Besides, even though Nelson possessed dual abilities, he had two fatal weaknesses: first, his speed was too slow, and second, his Berserk ability couldn’t be used indefinitely.
