Whoosh! Whoosh!

Somewhere in the forest.

A masked man arched his back and covered his abdomen with his hand. Blood seeped out from the edge of his palm and slowly flowed down.

Not far in front of him, messy traces spread into the distance. One could vaguely see a staggering figure getting further and further away before finally disappearing from sight.

Rip!

He tore off a piece of cloth from his shirt and wrapped it around his abdomen a few times. The masked man spat angrily.

“Count yourself lucky!”

He rushed in the direction he came from.

After chasing for more than twenty miles, they were already far away from the main group.

Although the other party was more seriously injured than him, the masked man no longer dared to chase after him.

If one of them decided to come back, he would probably fail miserably.

Not long after leaving, a companion came up to them.

The masked man’s eyes lit up. He stretched out his hand and called out, “Do you have medicine? Give me some!”

Zhou You, who was also wearing a mask, stopped in his tracks and quickly looked around. The terrain here was open, and it was not conducive to escape.

With a thought, he touched his waist and quickly approached the masked man.

“Yes!”

In a few breaths, the distance between the two of them had shortened to less than ten meters.

Zhou You took out the medicine and handed it over.

“Here!”

His muscles were tense. If anything went wrong, he would attack and quickly escape.

Although he could tell that the masked man was injured, Zhou You still did not dare to do anything rash.

Previously, he had no choice.

Now, hope was right in front of him. It had been a long time since he had found any traces of the masked man.

Zhou You speculated that he would be able to completely leave the masked man’s search range if he advanced a little further.

It was impossible for the masked man to pursue them endlessly.

Once they left the familiar home ground of the forest, it would be easy for them to attack and defend.

Seeing the masked man reach out to take the medicine, Zhou You felt a little relieved. However, he heard a greeting.

“It’s a beautiful day.”

“…What do you mean?”

Zhou You’s mind raced, and he subconsciously answered, “Yes…”

As soon as the words left his mouth, Zhou You immediately felt that something was amiss. The hair on his entire body stood on end. Without thinking, his entire body shrank. He turned his body sideways, bent his elbow, and smashed forward.

PAH!

There was a dull thud.

Zhou You felt his entire body tremble, and his left forearm went numb. He was sent flying three to four meters away. He rolled on the ground and quickly moved behind a big tree.

The masked man’s body swayed and he grunted. The cloth around his waist was instantly soaked in blood.

“Hmm? He didn’t chase after me… Or is he too weak to chase after me?”

Zhou You thought to himself as he looked at the blood that was constantly spreading from the masked man’s waist. At the same time, he was extremely glad.

The power of the masked man’s palm almost crippled half of his body. He was definitely a Bone Forging martial artist.

If he were to receive another palm strike, he would definitely be unable to withstand it.

However, the masked man was injured and his strength was greatly affected.

In just a breath, Zhou You felt the sensation in his left forearm return. A sharp pain pierced his mind.

Hiss!

Zhou You gasped. Without any hesitation, he got up and ran wildly. He drew an arc around the masked man and was about to leave.

“Little thief! You want to run?!” The masked man was furious.

In the previous short exchange, he had already determined the other party’s strength.

Did a mere Body Forging martial artist want to escape in front of him?

Pah!

The killing intent in the masked man’s eyes intensified. He tightened the cloth around his waist and stomped his feet. Like an arrow released from a bow, he instantly crossed a distance of seven to eight meters and pounced toward Zhou You.

Three moves!

All it would take was three moves!

He could kill this little thief with his palm!

Whoosh!

A strong wind whistled by his ears, and a substantial pressure landed on his body, causing his entire body to tremble slightly.

Zhou You’s heart skipped a beat. All the muscles in his body instantly tightened and twisted. Inner force spewed out, and his large tendons trembled crazily.

Boom!

Zhou You turned his feet with force and suddenly turned around. He bent his knees, twisted his hips, raised his arms, and clenched his fists.

Borrowing the momentum of his charge, his right fist smashed out like a hammer.

A frontal hammer!

Boom!

A clear and loud sound rang in his ears. Zhou You could no longer care about it. He leaned forward with all his might and pressed his entire body down.

Whoosh!

His right fist became even more powerful.

From the moment he saw the masked man’s speed, Zhou You instantly gave up on the idea of escaping.

If he was as agile as the White Crane Fist Dojo disciples, he might be able to escape.

But he was not.

Running away would only expose his back to the enemy. He would definitely die!

At this moment, he could only fight with all his might!

PAH!

Fist and palm collided.

With a muffled sound, qi shot out and grass flew everywhere.

The two figures were in a stalemate for a moment and took a few steps back at the same time.

The masked man’s eyes were bloodshot as he covered his abdomen with both hands. Blood flowed like a stream, leaving a long red mark on the ground.

Facing a mere Body Forging thief, he had only used the power of his large tendons.

Not only would it not cause injuries, but it could also destroy the enemy in one go.

Even if a Bone Forging martial artist only used the strength of a late-stage Body Forging martial artist, he could still crush a late-stage Body Forging martial artist without a special physique.

However, the moment they exchanged blows, he suddenly felt that the other party’s strength had exceeded his expectations. He had no choice but to hurriedly mobilize his bone strength, instantly causing his wound to bleed.

What made his eyes almost pop out of their sockets was that even so, he still did not suppress the other party.

This time, they were evenly matched!

His legs swept across three to four meters like plows. Zhou You stabilized his body and calmed down slightly.

He caught it!

Zhou You was still able to catch the Bone Forging martial artist’s killing blow, an injured one no less.

He opened and closed his fingers, quickly repeating it a few times. Zhou You looked at the masked man intently. He looked at the red mark that was dragged out from under the other party’s body, his eyes burning.

If he turned around and ran now, the masked man would most likely not chase after him.

However, when he saw the tragic state of the masked man, Zhou You felt there was no reason to run!

The Ferocious Tiger Fist was fierce and courageous. This was how battles should be!

After making up his mind, Zhou You bent down and took a short knife from his calf. He held it in his hand and shouted,

“Kill!”

With a stomp of his feet, the dagger in his hand flashed as he charged toward the masked man.

Zhou You had actually never learned any dagger techniques, but now that the masked man might still have the strength to counterattack, it was not appropriate for him to fight head-on.

Bloodletting with a knife was the best method.

The masked man took a deep breath and was about to step forward when he suddenly felt a flash in front of him and something moved.

Sensing that something was wrong, he turned around and ran without hesitation.

Zhou You was shocked. He quickly stepped forward and gathered the five fingers of his right hand into a beak. He extended the tip of the dagger and stabbed at the masked man’s back.

Green Snake Flicked its Tongue!

Swoosh!

The masked man suddenly turned around and grabbed at him with his right hand.

Crack!

The tip of the knife was twisted into a fried dough twist.

Zhou You quickly let go of the dagger and retreated with his fingers crooked. His upper body leaned back and his right leg swept over like a whip.

Whoosh!

The masked man’s eyes were fierce. He no longer cared about the wound on his lower abdomen. He clasped his hands together and hugged Zhou You’s right leg.

Zhou You gritted his teeth and made up his mind. He placed his hands on the ground and twisted his waist. His left leg also left the ground and swept out like a whip.

Pah!

The masked man had just wrapped his arms around Zhou You’s right leg when his left leg swept over with the sound of the wind.

Bam bam!

The masked man was sent flying. Blood splattered like a fountain and he fell to the ground.

He straightened his neck and glared at Zhou You with hatred.

“You!… I actually…”

Before he could finish his sentence, the masked man’s head fell heavily to the ground. He died with a grievance in his heart.
