Daily News: You promised yourself to be a fisherman, but you've become a martial arts god?

"You little brat, you're asking for death!"

Faced with Li Nian's provocation, Ge Xiong flew into a rage, his eyes wide with fury.

He hates being mocked for his appearance.

He was extremely ugly, with a large head, a short and thick neck, a high and prominent forehead, and narrow, sinister triangular eyes with mostly white showing, giving him a fierce and menacing appearance.

The nose is flat, wide, and crooked, with a thick, reddish tip. The mouth is wide and the lips are thick and turned outwards. The teeth are sparse and uneven. The cheeks are swollen and fleshy, the cheekbones protrude, and the jaw is wide and prominent.

His face was covered with loose, messy skin, his complexion was dark and dull, his features were crammed together without any order, his body was stout and hunched, and his appearance was rough and unsightly.

His parents had said he was ugly, which led to him killing his father and humiliating his mother, and then becoming a bandit in the lake.

This anger now.

It looks even worse!

"Kid, I'm going to tear your mouth apart!"

Ge Xiong's tone was terrifyingly sinister.

As soon as he finished speaking, his blood and energy surged, his clothes fluttered, and his muscles and bones roared, displaying an imposing aura.

He stomped his foot hard, sending sand and gravel flying everywhere.

The next moment, he suddenly burst out like a hungry tiger pouncing on its prey, leaping high into the air and striking Li Nian with his palm.

"Black Fiend Palm - Fiend Palm!"

Ge Xiong roared, veins bulging on his forehead.

His first move was his most powerful killing blow.

The rolling palm wind, carrying a chilling and ferocious aura, ruthlessly struck Li Nian's face.

The powerful palm strike swept across the land, the strong wind howled like a beast's roar, and the sand and gravel on the ground were swept up by the airflow, with dust swirling everywhere.

The surrounding crowd felt a powerful and overwhelming force rushing towards them, causing their breaths to become sluggish and their minds to tremble. No one dared to step forward to stop it easily, and the entire scene was instantly stunned by this domineering and fierce palm strike.

"Li Nian is finished!"

Seeing this, Liu Tong sighed and shook his head.

The power emanating from Ge Xiong far surpassed that of the pockmarked man from before.

Zong Zhengyu, born into a prestigious family and trained in the sect's martial arts, was defeated by Ma Mianbiao.

Li Nian, who was of peasant origin but had the same cultivation level as Zong Zhengyu, could not possibly defeat Ge Xiong, who was even more powerful than Ma Mianbiao.

At this moment, Li Nian remained unmoved, standing still as if she had been frozen in fear.

Everyone present shared the same feeling as Liu Tong.

The officers and soldiers were collectively demoralized, as if they could already see that after Li Nian's crushing defeat, according to the rules of the duel, they would become fish on the chopping block of the bandits of Shenyuan Village.

The bandits, on the other hand, were overjoyed, as if they could already see the scene after the great victory and had figured out what tricks they would use to cut off the heads of the government soldiers.

"His appearance is Ge Xiong's Achilles' heel; that brat Li Nian is doomed."

Among the bandits, a masked man frowned in displeasure.

He immediately loosened his grip, thinking:

"I originally intended to spare Li Nian's life and punish him properly, so that my newly recruited water ghosts could see my ruthlessness. But now it seems I have no choice but to give up."

"If I were to speak up and stop Ge Xiong, the soldiers on the island would surely know that I have landed on the island."

"I cannot show my face until I have completely taken control of everyone on the island, to prevent leaks and being punished by the boss."

"Anyway, by massacring Crescent Moon Island, I can gain a lot of prestige in the village, which will make it easier for me to rise to power in the future. There's plenty of time to intimidate these small fry."

"Tenth Brother, you're so kind! Even in death you bring me prestige!"

Just when everyone, including Tu Yue, thought that Li Nian was stunned by Ge Xiong's sudden attack.

Li Nian was moved.

"Good thing you came, saves me the trouble of going there myself!"

Facing Ge Xiong's all-out killing move, Li Nian's lips curled up slightly, revealing a calm and composed smile, without a trace of fear on her face.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, his hands suddenly clasped together, his ten fingers curling up like cold hooks, their sharpness subtly revealed.

He suddenly raised his arms high, his posture like an eagle spreading its wings, his waist and spine twisted sharply, and a vast, sea-like blood energy burst forth from his body. With a twist of his feet, the stone slabs beneath his feet shattered and flew away, and he rose up like a golden eagle soaring into the sun, his right claw grabbing directly at Ge Xiong's right palm.

"Deadly Frost Eagle Claw - Frost Eagle Swoops Down the Sun!"

"not good!"

Seeing this, Ge Xiong's pupils shrank sharply, and his anger was replaced by fear.

As a seasoned bandit who had spent many years fighting his way up in the underworld, his combat instincts were extremely sharp.

Li Nian's move right now made him feel threatened with death!

He immediately withdrew his palm, twisted his waist muscles, and tried to change his body trajectory in mid-air to avoid Li Nian's claw.

"Trying to leave?"

Li Nian snorted coldly.

Then, his body twisted.

"The dragon has vanished without a trace!"

With a thought, the body moves.

His speed suddenly increased, and he aimed straight for Ge Xiong's shoulder blade with one claw.

"Deadly Frost Eagle Claw - Falcon Shoulder Lock!"

"So fast!"

Ge Xiong's heart trembled.

Seeing that there was no way to avoid it, he put his hands in his pockets, and eight steel balls appeared between his fingers. He then suddenly swung them at Li Nian, trying to slow down Li Nian's attack.

Unexpectedly, Li Nian did not dodge at all, and her muscles tensed up.

"Iron Shirt!"

With a single thought, his entire body was stained the color of iron.

The steel balls hit him as if they were hitting a steel wall, clanging and clattering several times before bouncing away.

"Body Strengthening Method!"

Ge Xiong was startled.

Before he could finish thinking, Li Nian had already attacked him.

"Let's give it our all!"

Ge Xiong's heart sank, his body paused in mid-air, and he raised his palm to strike Li Nian's chest.

Just as the blow was about to hit, a claw as sharp as an iron hook precisely seized Ge Xiong's wrist.

Seeing that things were going badly, Ge Xiong tried to pull his hand away, but in the next instant, Li Nian's hand gripped tightly, forcefully piercing open the flesh of Ge Xiong's wrist and embedding itself deep into the bone.

Ah!

Ge Xiong screamed in agony.

Li Nian raised his left claw and gripped his shoulder tightly. He then used his right claw to pull and tear outwards with fierce and swift movements, as if tearing a taut animal hide. The flesh, tendons, and bones were instantly torn apart and broken.

At the fracture site, the broken white bones were exposed, and fresh blood gushed out.

The intense pain caused Ge Xiong to let out a bloodcurdling scream, like a pig being slaughtered.

"So noisy!"

Li Nian frowned in disdain.

Immediately, it raised its right claw again, attacking Ge Xiong's ugly throat. Its five sharp, hook-like fingers pierced through Ge Xiong's flesh like needles piercing tofu, and deeply penetrated his throat bone.

Ge Xiong's pupils dilated in terror.

"No--"

"Deadly Frost Eagle Claw - Raptor's Throat Tear!"

With a low shout, he violently tore it apart.

Ge Xiong's neck, along with his throat and cervical vertebrae, was torn off in an instant. His huge head was only covered by a layer of skin and flesh at the back, and blood gushed out from both ends.

Ge Xiong, who had been screaming in agony just moments before, suddenly lost all life, his eyes filled with fear and shock.

Li Nian disgustedly shook off his hand, and Ge Xiong's corpse fell to the ground like a pile of rotten flesh.

boom!

The entire battle between the two took less than three breaths!

"Too weak!"

Looking at Ge Xiong's corpse, Li Nian's eyes were filled with dejection.

Yes.

too weak.

He didn't even use his Forty-Eight Styles of Soul-Chasing Kick, Prajna Dragon Soaring Technique, Cloud-Shattering and Wind-Tearing Hand... his Sharingan was useless!

However, all of this was within his expectations.

After all, he practiced the Golden Eagle Piercing the Sun Technique, which was at the Gang Jin level and was certainly better than the Five Families of Qianhu's stance training.

Although both train tendons, his internal strength and blood energy far surpass those of Ge Xiong.

Compared to weaker techniques like the Prajna Dragon Soaring Technique, he had also mastered the Deadly Frost Eagle Claw to perfection, far surpassing ordinary skills.

Don't use your trump card if you don't have to; keep one more card for the future!

In summary.

It's only natural that they crushed Ge Xiong!

However, this only applies to him personally.

At present, on the shore of Crescent Moon Island.

The entire audience was terrified!

The scene was deathly silent!

The dust could be heard falling!
