Chapter 218 - 214 Sword Escape
Close combat is so perilous; even someone as highly intuitive and exceptionally talented as Tie Dan, a veteran of killing formations, cannot guarantee every move is successful without any damage.
The last move just now was truly thrilling. With no sword or Qi in his hand, and the old eunuch going all out in a desperate fight, there was no way to withstand this palm attack. If not handled properly, he’d be seriously injured, reduced to a prisoner.
So Tie Dan didn’t care about his demeanor, rolling and flipping awkwardly to narrowly escape the reach of the hand wind. As for his reverse hand poke, it was just a spontaneous reaction upon seeing a flaw, just a random stab, not some kind of miraculous feat.
But who could have guessed it would cause an explosion...
That’s not right... Without a sword or Qi, how could a poke cause an explosion? What kind of principle is this...
Just as Tie Dan was momentarily lost in thought, contemplating the method of how a poke caused a Nascent Soul explosion, a sharp, mournful scream interrupted his thinking.
"Ahh! My leg! My leg ahhh!"
Concubine Shu barely managed to crawl out from under the hairy chest corpse, crying out while clutching her broken leg, tears flowing, her makeup smeared. Yet even in this state, she pointed and cursed at Tie Dan!
"Ahhh! Kill him! Kill him! Peel his skin, pull his tendons ahhh!"
Tie Dan looked expressionlessly at the palace guards surrounding the outer circle of the palace, too terrified by the scene of him blowing up the Martial God with his bare hands to move forward a single step.
