"What I mean is, so many people are leaving the service and the club, and it seems like quite a few of them are big shots! With such a turbulent situation recently, maybe a new organization will soon emerge in the world of superpowers, and it will be a large organization that can rival the original two giants! Haha."
Chen Xiao immediately made the connection. Those two mysterious brothers in top hats seemed to be the ones who had defected from the club! And when he first met them, Phoenix had mentioned that she had some strange relationship with those two guys.
Chapter 229 [Misunderstanding]
Champagne bit into the roast meat with gusto, her teeth clenched as if she were eating Prince's meat instead of roasted rabbit.
Chen Xiao, on the other hand, gradually calmed down. After finishing his food, he clapped his hands, stood up, and glanced at Prince: "Alright, I've finished eating. I'm leaving now. If you try to stop me, then I'll have no choice but to open my fists and fight you."
Prince smiled and said, "Little kid, you're no match for me."
"Even if we can't win, we have to fight." Chen Xiao said calmly, "Now that you've caught me, do you think I shouldn't run?"
Prince chuckled twice: "Alright, alright, let's do it then."
Chen Xiao swiftly pulled a handful of iron pellets from his pocket, held them between his fingers, stared intently at Prince, then gave a soft shout and suddenly twisted his body to pounce on Prince. Several whooshing sounds filled the air as several iron pellets struck the spot where Prince was standing and exploded instantly.
Amidst the exploding flames, Prince's voice had already retreated rapidly, like a straight line, instantly retreating to the base of a large tree. Chen Xiao had already twisted and pressed close, raising his fist, exhaling, and throwing a punch.
He moved swiftly, using short, quick footwork. Prince watched this, and a hint of seriousness finally appeared in his eyes. However, Chen Xiao's punch missed its mark. With a loud bang, a tree as thick as two people could hug was snapped in half by his punch. Prince's figure, however, had already soared into the sky, a Western-style longsword materializing in his hand. A pair of snow-white wings unfurled behind him, and his pupils turned into an eerie silver!
With a whoosh, a silver light fell from the sky! Chen Xiao remained motionless, but raised his arms and crossed them above his head.
Keng.
The sharp, ringing sound almost made Champagne, who was sitting some distance away, go black! The piercing sound seemed to puncture one's eardrums.
Suddenly, a black mass appeared on Chen Xiao's arm. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a piece of armor-like material covering his arm. This fine, armor-like substance adhered to his arm with delicate lines, and on his forearm, there were several sharp, bony protrusions!
Prince's sword struck one of the blades, sending sparks flying as it collided, demonstrating Prince's formidable strength. The blade remained completely unharmed after the strike!
Prince let out a "Yi" sound. But Chen Xiao's clothes had already torn apart automatically, and a layer of black armor-like material appeared all over his body and skin, enveloping him completely, while the barbed blades on his arms emitted a dark, eerie light!
After examining it closely for a few moments, Prince muttered, "What kind of superpower is this? It's so strange." Then, a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he laughed loudly, "I'm always interested in novel things!"
After saying that, it flapped its wings and swooped down, its longsword pointing fiercely at Chen Xiao!
Chen Xiao's strange bone armor was activated, and he felt a violent power surge within his body. This feeling of abundant energy almost made his body explode, and he felt that he had inexhaustible strength.
Seeing Prince lunge at him, he raised his arm to block, but the blade struck a section of the blade on Prince's arm, producing a loud bang!
The ground beneath Chen Xiao's feet was originally solid soil. But with such a powerful blow, a section collapsed! From a distance, it looked as if Prince's sword had transformed into a hammer, smashing Chen Xiao entirely into the ground!
Chen Xiao felt a powerful force slam into his arm, dust billowed up, and the bones and armor of his arm rattled!
Prince's sword strike failed to bring Chen Xiao down, which piqued his interest even more. He laughed loudly, "Interesting."
After he finished speaking, the thin blade in his hand transformed into countless points of light, raining down on Chen Xiao's body! Instantly, a dense clanging sound rang out, and Chen Xiao felt as if he had been struck countless times on his chest and arms! Each strike felt like a heavy hammer hitting his body!
The strange black bone armor blocked most of the storm-like attack. Although Chen Xiao was knocked back, he was not injured. Once he regained his footing, he only needed to raise his arm to occasionally cover his face, and he was not seriously hurt.
Just as Prince's sword was about to pierce his chest, he suddenly clapped his arms together. With a snap, the two blades on his arms clamped Prince's sword blade, hooking it and locking it firmly in place!
Prince pulled at the sword, but found it didn't budge. His expression changed slightly. Chen Xiao had already exhaled, with a bit of blood at the corner of his mouth, and said fiercely, "Have you hit me enough?"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless tiny black lights shot towards Prince! These were iron pellets that Chen Xiao had been holding in his hand. Now that the two were so close, as this barrage of iron pellets was thrown at him, a glint of light flashed in Chen Xiao's eyes, and he shouted, "Explode!"
Amidst the flames and smoke, Prince's loud curse rang out: "Damn it!"
As countless metals exploded around him, Prince immediately emitted a ball of silver light to envelop his body. However, his longsword was locked by Chen Xiao. He made up his mind and finally revealed a ruthless look on his face!
Chen Xiao felt a powerful force coming from his arm. The force suddenly became violent, and the longsword he had locked in his arm vibrated violently. A powerful force slammed into his flesh through his arm! With a few popping sounds, the skin under his arm bone tore open, and blood gushed out. He cried out in pain as several parts of his arm and shoulder burst open at the same time!
Princeton immediately felt the sword's edge loosen, so he drew his sword and leaped backward, instantly covering more than ten meters before landing some distance away, his expression changing slightly.
Seeing Chen Xiao take a few steps back, his arms hanging down, blood flowing from his fingertips beneath his bone nails, yet still glaring at Prince, Prince suddenly had an idea and laughed, "Kid, we're just playing around. We're not risking our lives."
Chen Xiao spat and cursed, "You madman, you're not risking your life. You hit me harder than I did just now."
Prince looked worried, then thought for a moment, slapped his forehead, and laughed, "Ha, don't worry! No matter how badly you're injured, as long as you don't die, I can heal you. Come on, come on. Play with me a little longer!"
With that, the sword flicked, and a sonic boom erupted, sending a jolt through Chen Xiao's chest, nearly causing him to vomit blood. Prince was already upon him. Seeing the sword aimed at his eye, Chen Xiao roared, "Are you trying to blind me?!"
He took a deep breath and instantly locked his mental energy onto a coordinate about five meters to his left. His figure vanished from the spot as he tried to use teleportation to create distance. However, as soon as he teleported, he suddenly felt as if his body was being pulled tightly by an invisible force!
During the instantaneous teleportation, the feeling of being suddenly locked on caused Chen Xiao immense suffering!
Instant teleportation originally relied on tearing open spatial rifts to achieve long-distance travel. Now, as he used it, his body was forcibly teleporting to another coordinate, but suddenly he was pulled back by an invisible force, like a tug-of-war. He was instantly stuck in the middle, unable to move. The two forces pulled his body in opposite directions, and he immediately felt as if his body was being torn apart!
Then there was a loud bang. Chen Xiao's body disappeared from the spot, but the place he reappeared in was not the coordinates he had locked onto. Instead, he suddenly appeared in mid-air and crashed heavily to the ground like a fish out of water.
Chen Xiao was panting heavily, his head throbbing. He then heard Prince laugh apologetically, "Ah! Little friend, your teleportation level is far below mine. You'd better not use it in front of me, or you might hurt yourself."
Chen Xiao spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, then jumped up despite the pain and cursed, "Go to hell!"
With his hands clasped together, he desperately unleashed all his mental power. Instantly, a cluster of large trees around him snapped in two under the force of his mental power, transforming into dozens of sharp tree trunks that shot towards Prince!
At the same time, Chen Xiao grabbed the thickest tree trunk, let out a low roar, and charged towards Prince.
Beneath dozens of sharp tree trunks, Prince suddenly opened his mouth and screamed. A sonic wave instantly appeared around him, but it did not disperse. It only maintained a distance of about five meters around him, forming an arc-shaped wave that looked like an air shield. However, when the dozens of tree trunks shot in front of him and entered the range of the sonic wave, they were immediately vibrated and shattered by the powerful sonic wave, turning into a sky full of fine wood chips!
Prince's shout was so powerful that it startled Chen Xiao!
But he was already on the verge of disaster, and there was no turning back! Holding the thick tree trunk in his arms, he took several quick steps and slammed into it. The instant the tree trunk acted as a sonic shield, Chen Xiao felt a jolt in his arm! Within the range of the sonic waves, wave after wave of extremely fast and intense vibrations surged wildly along the tree trunk! It felt like super-frequency oscillation, and he could see the front of the tree trunk cracking and breaking with each vibration, as countless tiny cracks rapidly spread across its surface!
The intense vibrations made Chen Xiao feel as if the muscles in his arms were almost twisting, weakening his formidable strength wave after wave. He felt his strength rapidly disintegrating. The tree trunk had already crashed into Prince's sonic shield. Although he was very close to Prince, taking another step forward became extremely difficult! He used every ounce of his strength, pushing his A-level power to its limit, yet his steps became increasingly arduous.
Finally, with a loud bang, the tree trunk could not withstand the force of the two powerful figures and burst open. Chen Xiao's body was thrown far backward, flying more than ten meters, crashing into a large tree before landing on the ground. His legs went weak, and he knelt on one knee, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
