Walking the Dog

As it turns out, the volume of the shout has nothing to do with the power of the attack. Xia Yu's full-force punch, which struck through the Strike the Ox Across the Mountains, did indeed penetrate the outermost layer of skin. Unfortunately, due to the layers of shock absorption inside, the internal force that reached Thanos's body did vibrate his heart for a moment, but it was far from enough to injure him.

Despite its thin layer of skin, it possesses such defensive and shock-absorbing properties; the purple skin of this guy is remarkably similar to Tony's Armor.

With a loud 'boom!', Thanos crashed to the ground, and Xia Yu knelt on top of him, his right fist still pressed against Thanos's chest, directly towards his heart.

Xia Yu used all his strength and Internal Energy in that punch, holding nothing back. It was the most powerful strike Xia Yu could deliver so far, so he needed a little time to catch his breath.

In that split second, Thanos, having regained his senses, reached out his left hand and grasped Xia Yu's right wrist.

"You're not bad. I admit I underestimated you a bit. Too bad, you're not strong enough to hurt me."

Thanos smiled, and Xia Yu, who was standing right next to him, could even see the wrinkles on Thanos's chin twitch.

Xia Yu was utterly shocked. His punch, which could have collapsed a building even through a metal wall, was aimed directly at Thanos's heart, yet the force was absorbed by Thanos's skin and muscles. What kind of body structure did Thanos have?

Thanos his wrist, and Xia Yu thought to himself, "I'm done for." Even Hulk couldn't withstand a few Military Boxing from this guy, so he figured he wouldn't last much longer either. He was no match for Thanos in close combat.

Fortunately, Xia Yu had a lot of unorthodox methods. Just as Thanos's hand grasped Xia Yu's wrist, a small packet of powder appeared in Xia Yu's right palm. Xia Yu flicked two fingers of his right hand upwards, and the small packet of white powder flew towards Thanos's face.

Thanos, unaware of what it was, helplessly let go to protect his eyes, ears, nose, and mouth, Xia Yu quickly seized the opportunity to stand upright.

Thanos quickly stood up and waved his hand to disperse the white powder.

Just as Xia Yu casually tossed aside the small packet of milk powder meant for adding coffee, Xia Yu punched it again.

Under normal circumstances, with both of them standing, Xia Yu's fist was aimed directly at Thanos's abdomen.

Thanos slightly shifted his body to dodge Xia Yu's punch.

As a result, something else suddenly appeared in Xia Yu's hand.

This time it's a precious sword.

The Heaven Reliant Sword.

Thanos stepped aside, and the Heaven Reliant Sword appeared in Xia Yu's hand, its tip pointing at Thanos, held in a reverse grip.

Xia Yu revealed an indescribable smile. With a slight twist of his wrist, the sword in his right hand, which was thrusting towards Thanos, was slightly tilted. The Heaven Reliant Sword, carrying a sword light, went straight for the Purple Sweet Potato's manhood with utter malice.

No matter how powerful and ruthless Thanos, he is first and foremost a man, and every man in any world cherishes his genitals immensely.

Thanos was no exception; he reached out and grabbed the blade of the Heaven Reliant Sword.

The tip of the sword was less than two centimeters away from Thanos's crotch.

These two centimeters were like an insurmountable obstacle; no matter how much effort Xia Yu put in, he could not advance an inch.

Xia Yu shouted and slammed his left hand down hard on the sword hilt.

"Bang!"

Xia Yu had just swung his left hand when Thanos used his other hand to deliver a powerful downward punch, sending Xia Yu flying a great distance.

Before flying away, Xia Yu swiftly put the Heaven Reliant Sword back into his Space Ring.

Thanos felt a lightness in his hand; the Heaven Reliant Sword he had been holding had vanished.

Thanos said to Xia Yu, who had just fallen to the ground:

"No one has been able to hurt me for many years. You're a damn scoundrel. I consider you my opponent and personally dealt with you. You should feel honored that you would resort to such despicable tactics."

Despite the hasty attack, Xia Yu wasn't seriously injured. Hearing this, he laughed loudly and said, "Who told you to be so big, you little sweet potato? I'd like to aim my sword at your neck, but I'd better be able to reach it first."

"Speaking of despicable acts," Xia Yu slowly stood up.

"I'm still better than you, you self-proclaimed chosen one. You want the Tesseract, but you don't even have the courage to go to Earth to get it yourself. You only dare to send some Tom, Dick, and Harry to their deaths. Haha, Thanos, who is Thanos the universe, doesn't even have the courage to set foot on Earth."

Xia Yu pointed at Thanos and loudly mocked him without any respect.

"I'm warning you, kid, provocation won't work on me, but your words have certainly angered me. My killings are never driven by personal emotion, but I've made up my mind: when I set foot on Earth, I will exterminate every life on that planet."

Thanos was unusually angry, mainly because Xia Yu's sword strike was too vulgar, and Thanos felt insulted.

"If you dare to come to Earth, then you can talk after you've defeated me. If you're alive enough to come to Earth, I promise you, no matter how many come, I'll kill them all for you." Xia Yu showed no weakness.

"Haha!" Thanos was amused by Xia Yu's words.

"Then let's see if you have the ability to survive my clutches." Before he finished speaking, Thanos stomped heavily on the ground and charged towards Xia Yu like a cannonball.

Thanos's charge is like Hulk's, seemingly incredibly powerful, like a warship charging towards you, but in terms of agility, he is far inferior to Xia Yu.

Xia Yu didn't even use the Armor's functions or the Lingbo Weibu); he simply used his lightness Kung Fu to dodge it with a slight movement.

The Thanos hall inside Thanos's warship was large enough to give Xia Yu ample room to dodge.

While leisurely dodging Thanos, he continuously bombarded Thanos with palm strikes, fist strikes, and sword strikes.

One attack failed, and the other couldn't be hit; the two of them temporarily circled around the main hall.

Although both sides were temporarily helpless against each other, it was unclear whether Xia Yu intended it or not, but eight or nine out of ten attacks were aimed at Thanos's lower body.

Thanos boasted that he had dominated the universe for so many years and had almost never encountered a rival, except for some legendary figures such as Odin, the king of the gods.

Even though he had some powerful opponents, he eventually defeated them all.

Of all the opponents I've faced, I've never encountered anyone like Xia Yu, whose every move is aimed at my groin. It's utterly shameless.

Unfortunately, the kid was too fast, and Thanos couldn't catch up at all. At this time, Thanos didn't have any Infinity Stones, and he had left Loki on Earth with the only Mind Stone he had.

Therefore, Thanos himself did not have any ranged attack methods. Given his status, he certainly did not lack powerful individual weapons, but as a proud being, he never bothered to use them.

There's no one in this universe worth using; if he can't beat them, he can't beat them no matter what he uses. None of the others are his match.

But this time Xia Yu really opened his eyes. Although he certainly couldn't hurt him, he was extremely annoying.

"You damn brat, can't you come and fight me like a warrior?" Thanos stopped and shouted, blocking a sword strike aimed at his groin. He was starting to get impatient.

Thanos wouldn't send someone in to deal with Xia Yu now. He just said he would deal with him personally, but he can't do that yet, at least not for the time being. The main reason is that Xia Yu doesn't have the Tesseract. If he did, Thanos would stop at nothing to keep him alive.

Xia Yu could hear the anger in Thanos's voice.

He stopped, flashed a wide grin at Thanos, revealing his bright white teeth.

"I don't know if you've played games before, but some ranged attack classes use their advantages and positioning to fight bosses in a way that players generally call 'kiting.' However, this isn't a game, so what I just described as your behavior is..."

Xia Yu paused for a moment, then uttered a single word, one word at a time.

"Walking the Dog!"

There should be two more chapters, I mean, there should be.
