"A gentleman's revenge can wait ten years! Remember this—one day, I'll tear you to pieces, rip out your soul, and refine your spirit so you can never be reborn!"
With that, he raised his longsword and slashed down fiercely.
Lin Taichu's pupils contracted sharply as overwhelming fear surged through him. He desperately tried to block the blow. Unfortunately, his injuries were far too severe this time. Forcing himself to use the Wind-Riding Step earlier had consumed an enormous amount of Origin Energy, and it was now nearly impossible for him to evade the man's attack.
Bang! The sharp longsword struck Lin Taichu's shoulder blade, instantly tearing open several horrifying wounds as blood sprayed everywhere. At the same time, his right arm went numb, and his hand trembled faintly. The entire arm had nearly been severed by that man.
The man grinned viciously, flicked his wrist, and thrust his longsword forward with incredible speed. Lin Taichu hurriedly raised his sword to block, but the blade grazed his arm, slicing open his sleeve and leaving a bloody wound behind.
The man did not stop attacking. Sword after sword stabbed toward him, each strike accurately targeting a different part of Lin Taichu's body. Though they only grazed him, the pain was excruciating.
This man was far too powerful. Lin Taichu was no match for him. He could only await slaughter.
Yet Lin Taichu felt no fear. Instead, his fighting spirit was stirred. His eyes lit up. This was a battle worth fighting with everything he had!
Lin Taichu gritted his teeth and forced himself to focus on facing his enemy. Unfortunately, his body could no longer hold on. He felt the strength draining rapidly from his body, while intense pain erupted from his dantian, nearly robbing him of the ability to move.
