"Time and time again, I'm fed up even if you're not. If I don't beat you all to death, you'll keep harassing me every few days. How am I supposed to do my own thing in peace?"

Xu Nian said in an icy voice, "You're the ones who came here to provoke me."

He approached Li Lin step by step, each step leaving scorched marks on the withered leaves on the ground.

Zhou Yuan was secretly alarmed and couldn't help but worry about Li Lin.

"Does it have to be this way? I was forced to come here. I don't want to be your enemy. Just let me leave—"

Li Lin still refused to give up and continued to beg for mercy.

Xu Nian sneered disdainfully.

call!

He leaped forward like a cheetah hunting its prey, covering several steps in an instant, his arms whipping out like whips, producing a sharp, piercing sound.

White Ape Tongbei Fist!

Zhou Yuan immediately recognized that Xu Nian was also using the White Ape Tongbi Fist, but Xu Nian's White Ape Tongbi Fist was completely different from his.

Zhou Yuan seemed to understand something.

Just then, a look of distress flashed across Li Lin's face, and his arm trembled as well, sending his spear plunging out like a venomous snake.

Swish!

Zhou Yuan's eyes lit up.

Every inch counts, and there might still be hope for Teacher Li Lin.

The moment this thought crossed his mind, he saw Xu Nian slam his fist into the shaft of the gun, half a foot below the tip.

With a snap, the hardwood gun barrel broke off.

Xu Nian lunged forward and slammed his elbow into Li Lin's chest.

boom!

Li Lin threw down his spear and parried with a White Ape Tongbei Fist, managing only to block Xu Nian's elbow attack with his arm.

Li Lin plowed the ground with both feet, flying backward and crashing into a large tree that was as thick as a person's embrace. He spat out a mouthful of blood.

Li Lin slid to the ground, clutching his chest and staring at Xu Nian, who was walking towards him unhurriedly, his eyes filled with struggle.

"You forced me to do this."

He seemed to be muttering to himself.

Before he finished speaking, Li Lin's eyes suddenly turned fierce, and he reached behind him and took off the hammer.

It was a weapon of the same design as the hammer in Zhou Yuan's hand, except that the one in Li Lin's hand was heavier, weighing almost sixty or seventy pounds.

With the hammer in hand, Li Lin let out a low roar and leaped up like a nimble ape, twisting his body and swinging his arms at the same time.

White Ape Hammer Strike!

The bronze-forged hammer, leaving a trail of afterimages, slammed heavily towards Xu Nian.

A look of surprise flashed across Xu Nian's face, but he quickly smiled coldly and took the long sword from his back.

Although he didn't take Li Lin seriously, he wouldn't be foolish enough to use his hands to force himself to heal in the face of such a fierce hammer blow.

In the battles of the martial world, even a lion must use its full strength to hunt a rabbit, let alone this cowardly fellow who is actually quite powerful.

Ding ding ding.

The sound of metal clashing echoed through the dense forest, and broken branches and withered leaves flew everywhere.

Zhou Yuan's eyes widened; it was the first time he had ever seen Li Lin wield the White Ape Cloak Hammer.

The heavy hammer, weighing sixty or seventy pounds, was wielded by Li Lin with such force that it was impervious to water, as if it were a raging storm.

With each hammer blow, Li Lin seemed tireless.

Xu Nian's longsword dared not clash head-on with the heavy hammer, and he was actually forced to retreat a few steps.

Xu Nian's expression turned somewhat sinister.

Damn it, you've broken through to the Blood Exchange Realm four times, what are you pretending to be, you innocent little rabbit?

Were you just pretending to be timid before because of me?

Enraged, Xu Nian's swordsmanship instantly became fierce.

He let out a low roar, and the blade flashed like a bolt of lightning, forcefully piercing into the shadow of the hammer.

clang!

With a crisp sound, the knife and hammer clashed.

The longsword snapped in two instantly, the hilt remaining in Xu Nian's hand, while the tip flew towards Li Lin's face.

Li Lin instinctively shook his head to avoid it.

Xu Nian seized the opportunity to grab the weapon hammer with one hand, and with a swing of his other arm, the broken sword flashed past Li Lin's chest.

Whoosh!

The blade severed the seams on the chainmail, and pieces of metal clattered and fell to the ground.

Xu Nian's swordsmanship was as swift as lightning; in an instant, he slashed down, striking Li Lin in the chest.

"what!"

A cry of surprise came from the woods.

Zhou Yuan stared wide-eyed, covered his mouth, and looked in another direction with some confusion.

Are there other people hiding nearby like him?

Just then, a figure stumbled out of the forest as if he had been pushed, rushing to within seven or eight steps of Xu Nian, his face filled with astonishment and terror.

Behind him, a person scrambled and crawled away into the depths of the dense forest.

"Yuan Qingfeng? Guo Liang?"

Zhou Yuan looked at Guo Liang, who was being pushed out, and Yuan Qingfeng, who was fleeing in a disheveled state, and a thought struck him.

No sooner said than done.

This scene did not affect the fight between Li Lin and Xu Nian.

Xu Nian cleaved through the chainmail with a skillful strike, and then landed his next blow on Li Lin's chest.

The imagined scene of being disemboweled did not occur.

It turned out that Li Lin was wearing an inner armor under his outer garment!

The inner armor blocked the fatal blow, but the immense force carried by the blade still caused Li Lin to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Li Lin's eyes also turned red. He released his hammer and pounded out with both fists.

Xu Nian held a knife in one hand and the stolen hammer in the other. Because the two were too close, he didn't have time to block.

boom!

A muffled thud.

Xu Nian was hit squarely, his body flew backward, rolled once after landing, jumped up, then swayed and knelt down on one knee, vomiting a mouthful of blood.

"Aww!"

Li Lin roared and pounced on him with bloodshot eyes.

Xu Nian cursed inwardly. On his way out, he had encountered countless experts who had chased him, but he had always managed to escape unscathed.

Today, I was actually injured by a martial artist from this remote and impoverished place.

Who the hell is this person? Wearing inner armor under chainmail? Are they that afraid of dying?

Cursing under his breath, Xu Nian was also furious. He roared and suddenly lunged forward, swinging his arm to strike.

The muffled thuds continued incessantly.

Both of them used the White Ape Tongbi Fist, and their speed was so fast that it was difficult to see with the naked eye. In the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged hundreds of blows.

boom!

Li Lin slammed his fists into Xu Nian's chest, the sound of bones breaking echoed, and as Xu Nian flew backward, he kicked Li Lin in the abdomen.

Li Lin screamed in agony, spitting out blood as he fell backward to the ground.

The two fell to the ground at the same time, and after struggling for a moment, neither of them was able to get up.

Zhou Yuan was dumbfounded. Who would have thought that the timid and cowardly Master Li could fight Xu Nian to a standstill?

Although Li Lin used some tricks, his strength is probably among the best in Gaoshan County.

"Guo Liang, kill him before he catches his breath!"

Coughing up blood, Li Lin shouted, "Otherwise, we'll all be dead by the time he catches his breath!"

Guo Liang was already terrified. When he heard his master's shout, he said "oh" twice and walked towards Xu Nian with his wooden-handled hammer.

He was trembling all over.

"Let's do it!"

Li Lin cried out anxiously, and couldn't help but spit out another mouthful of blood.

"what!"

Guo Liang gritted his teeth, raised his hammer high, and smashed it down on Xu Nian.

boom!

With a muffled thud, Guo Liang flew out like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground, his fate unknown.

A strange blush flashed across Xu Nian's face, and blood dripped from the corner of his mouth to the ground.

"You deserve to die for injuring Xu!"

Xu Nian actually stood up unsteadily, his voice filled with murderous intent.

Li Lin was filled with despair; it was truly the end for him.

Xu Nian staggered over to Li Lin and grabbed Li Lin by the neck.

Li Lin's face turned red as he tried to grab Xu Nian's arm, but due to his serious injuries, he couldn't muster any strength at all.

As Xu Nian tightened his grip, Li Lin's consciousness began to blur.

Before losing his last shred of consciousness, he seemed to see a person leap up from the bushes not far away, wielding a hammer and attacking Xu Nian from behind.
