Chapter 14: Demonic Martial Skills
This sight delighted Adrian. This was what he had been hoping for. All his running around was just so he could tire out the leader of the demonic cultivators.
Swinging that huge great sword would certainly take its toll, especially after he was doing it wantonly. He had been observing him since the beginning of the fight. His sword skills were crude and rudimentary at best.
As someone who was a practitioner of swordsmanship, Adrian could point out many flaws in his swordsmanship. There was so much wasted energy and motion. He even speculated that this man had never learnt any swordsmanship at all.
And he was right. This leader of the demonic cultivators hadn't learnt any swordsmanship at all. The reason why he uses a sword is just because he thought it looked cool.
After dodging a large sword slash aimed for his head, Adrian began his counterattack. With a massive burst of speed, he lunged straight forward, attempting to pierce his throat.
This attack surprised the leader of the demonic cultivators. And rightfully so. Before this, Adrian had barely been able to dodge his attacks. Every sidestep and maneuver that Adrian demonstrated was always done at the last second.
This gave him the false sense of illusion that he was cornering Adrian and that it was only a matter of time before he wasn't able to dodge anymore. However, that was also a trap set by Adrian.
Seeing the gleaming sword fast approaching his throat, he panicked. With a last-ditch effort, he was able to deflect the sword away with his sword. However, his hasty parry left him unbalanced.
He had to take a few steps back to be able to keep himself on his feet. His face darkened as he spat out a few words in annoyance.
