Chapter 467: Breaking Free
A fierce light glinted in Li Xi's eyes. He took a step forward, his massive, fan-like hand suddenly swinging back to grab Lin Feng's wrist. He clenched it tight, preventing Lin Feng from escaping in the slightest.
But then, Li Xi noticed a problem: Lin Feng's other arm was somehow behind him.
Moreover, a faint surge of Inner Strength was already gathering in Lin Feng's palm, a clear sign of terrifying power.
Li Xi understood Lin Feng's plan: control him first, then find the right opportunity for a sneak attack to cripple him. But how could he let Lin Feng succeed?
He suddenly clamped his legs tightly around Lin Feng's left arm, then forcefully exerted strength with both arms. Lin Feng, who had been pressing forward, was unexpectedly shoved back.
SLAP!
As Lin Feng brushed past Li Xi, a searing, sharp pain erupted on Li Xi's cheek.
Lin Feng, however, spun around and immediately kicked both legs toward Li Xi's neck. The incomparably fierce kick surged with Inner Strength, whistling through the air!
It was as if the very air was being compressed. The force of the blow made it clear that Lin Feng was no longer holding back.
Li Xi's heart pounded with indescribable terror. In their exchange just moments ago, Lin Feng had already held a significant advantage, but now he had been kicked to the ground, unable to even defend himself.
Li Xi hastily turned to the side, raising his arms to block Lin Feng's legs. He knew blocking it head-on would definitely lead to injury, so he decided to meet Lin Feng's power with his own.
BANG!
With a dull thud, Li Xi's body was sent flying backward.
Lin Feng leaped up, then unleashed a roundhouse kick straight for Li Xi's head. Li Xi jerked to the side, but he was still a fraction too slow.
The kick landed squarely on Li Xi's cheek, sending him flying several yards.
COUGH. COUGH.
Li Xi lay on the ground, struggling to get up, but his body was limp and powerless. On his face, the clear imprint of a shoe was strikingly vivid.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng rolled to a stable landing. After watching Li Xi struggle to crawl, Lin Feng let out a cold snort and closed in again.
Lin Feng knew Li Xi was a spent force, but he didn't let his guard down.
After all, a cornered beast fights the hardest. He had to be careful, or he could still fail at the last second.
WHOOSH!
Lin Feng's body shot forward like a Tyrannosaurus Rex, hurtling with incredible speed toward the exhausted Li Xi.
"Damn you, kid! If you're going to kill me, I'll take a piece of you with me before I die!"
Li Xi's eyes were savage. His cheek was swollen high, and a trickle of blood hung from the corner of his mouth. He hated Lin Feng to the bone. 'This won't end today. Sooner or later, I'll tear him to shreds! I will have my revenge!'
SHING!
Li Xi's hands became a blur, his sleeves tracing afterimages in the air. With a wave of his hand, a sky full of hidden weapons rained down, shooting toward Lin Feng.
WHOOSH!
The dense tide of hidden weapons blotted out the sky as they shot forward. Each one was refined from precious materials Li Xi had collected over the years, and every single one was coated in a deadly poison.
But in Lin Feng's eyes, this was nothing more than child's play; to him, it was all far too naive.
Lin Feng sidestepped a spray of hidden weapons, then his figure darted forward, arriving in front of Li Xi in the blink of an eye.
"Damn it!"
His pupils shrank. Li Xi shifted slightly to the side. He knew Lin Feng's intention, but he was already a spent force. 'How can I possibly dodge such a sharp attack?'
Li Xi suddenly dodged to the side, but Lin Feng's attack changed with him, aiming straight for his ribs—a weak spot on his waist. At the same time, Lin Feng's right fist shot out, striking for his chest.
Lin Feng's eyes were ice-cold. As he threw the punch, the Inner Strength in his palm was already circulating wildly.
PUFF!
The moment the punch landed, a dull, explosive sound came from Li Xi's abdomen, and a hot stream gushed out.
Using the momentum from the blow, Lin Feng leaned back, then whipped a single leg up in a vicious kick aimed straight at Li Xi's face.
Li Xi's eyes went wide. He stared at the piercing whip kick, his heart filled with panic!
With no other choice, he could only cross his arms to block. But as the kick landed on his forearms, the sound of cracking bone instantly rang out.
CRACK!
A scream tore out as Li Xi's arms twisted instantly. Lin Feng had actually shattered his bones with the sheer force of the blow. Lin Feng's leg then continued its downward arc, smashing directly onto Li Xi's chest.
THUD!
Li Xi was sent flying by Lin Feng's kick, crashing heavily to the ground. The impact made him vomit blood, and he heard three of his ribs snap. He felt as if his internal organs had been severely damaged.
THUMP!
Li Xi lay on the ground gasping for breath, glaring venomously at Lin Feng, who stood a short distance away. He was utterly frustrated. Everything had been going according to plan, but he just had to run into someone as troublesome as Lin Feng, causing all his efforts to end in failure.
Lin Feng slowly walked toward Li Xi. He appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was heavy.
The previous battle and his own relentless attacks had left his lungs burning with a searing pain, but he couldn't afford to worry about that now.
Because right now, Li Xi was a spent force. If he waited until Li Xi recovered even slightly, he would be much harder to deal with.
His own condition was far from good, but he didn't hesitate for a moment. Since he had decided to finish Li Xi, he would absolutely not let the tiger return to the mountain!
"What do you think you're doing?"
Li Xi watched Lin Feng get closer and closer, his eyes locked on him. He already knew there was likely no escape for him today, but he was unwilling to accept it.
He had suffered through countless hardships to cultivate his martial arts, finally reaching his current realm. He had even earned the favor of *that person* and started living a life of luxury. How could he accept dying just like this?
"What do you think?"
Lin Feng glanced at Li Xi but didn't get any closer. He knew Li Xi was an extremely dangerous person. He was already difficult enough to handle now; if he waited for Li Xi to recover even a bit of his strength, it would be even more troublesome.
And now, he was left with no choice. Li Xi's death was certain; it was only a matter of sooner or later.
