Chapter 21: What's the use of being able to fight? Showing off will make you fly!
"Buzz—"
The large and small steel rings seemed to come alive in Shangguan Fei's hands. The small ring went out first, followed by the large ring, sweeping across Wei Wu's front.
Wei Wu tilted his head slightly, and the steel ring grazed the tip of his nose. His eyes widened slightly, as if he were feeling sorry for Shangguan Fei, and he sighed, "Just a little bit more."
Shangguan Fei remained silent, while Xiao Huan followed closely behind.
Wei Wu could even feel the chill rising from the steel ring as it brushed against his lips, yet he avoided it, still exclaiming, "So close!"
Shangguan Fei launched a thirty-three-move attack. The first twenty moves were aimed directly at Wei Wu’s face, but each move was just a little short. Apart from blowing a few strands of hair from Wei Wu’s temples, it had no effect whatsoever.
In the last thirteen moves, Shangguan Fei was clearly getting anxious, aiming every move at Wei Wu's mouth. He could only regret that after each move, Wei Wu would add, "Just a little bit short."
His moves were rapid and dense, like a sudden storm, but Wei Wu always managed to find an opening, as if to encourage or instruct, saying "almost there."
Do!
Bang!
With his twin rings in hand, Shangguan Fei slammed them heavily onto the table, breaking it into three pieces. But the table alone was not enough to quell his rage.
He leaned in, trying to close the distance.
But Wei Wu suddenly raised his foot.
Suddenly, an iron staff appeared between him and Shangguan Fei.
An iron staff thrust out from the side, blocking Shangguan Fei's chest. The iron staff, weighing over sixty-three pounds, patted Shangguan Fei's chest as gently as a noodle, sending him backward.
It was this rescue that allowed Shangguan Fei to avoid Wei Wu's kick.
Even so, the cold wind from Wei Wu's raised leg still tore through Shangguan Fei's hem, kicking Shangguan Fei's brother even before Wei Wu's leg could reach him.
Wei Wu stood up with a smile, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the one-legged man who had suddenly made his move. "You were quick, but still a bit slow. Fortunately, this man isn't petty, and his skills are limited."
He stretched out his hand and made a gesture towards Shangguan Fei that would break the defenses of any Korean, "Just this small."
Shangguan Fei's face turned purple, his body twisted involuntarily, the bloodshot in his eyes spilled into his pupils, and every muscle in his body seemed to tremble as he roared, "Kill! Attack him together and kill him!"
Two men in yellow shirts, one tall and one short, moved first. The identical quadruplets simultaneously drew short knives from their waists, each wielding two knives.
But even faster than them was the green-faced old man who had already eaten all the centipedes.
With a flick of his sleeve, the man sent the remaining four earthenware jars spinning around to Wei Wu's front, from which the five poisonous creatures flew out, their forms ferocious and disgusting.
Wei Wu's eyes sharpened, but he still smiled and said, "It would be impolite not to reciprocate. Here, have a taste!"
He waved his hands, as if he had grown two more arms. With all six arms outstretched, four of his hands shattered the jar, and the poisonous insects inside were swept away by the force of his palms and swatted at the six yellow-clad men who were attacking from the front and back.
The venomous insect was sharp and its venom was even more potent. It landed on the faces of the six people with just one bite, and the intense venom caused them to writhe on the ground, screaming in agony. Unable to control themselves, they tore their faces apart with their index fingers and died with a groan.
One of his other two arms blocked the iron staff that the one-legged man swung, and the other blocked the emerald green blade that the green-faced old man took the opportunity to slash.
With a quick pull and retraction of his single leg, he retrieved the iron staff from his hand, then let out a loud shout and swung the staff out again.
This sweep uses the "Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies" technique commonly found in martial arts circles. This move is used with all kinds of weapons, including swords, spears, and clubs. Even a mischievous child who doesn't know martial arts can swing it around in a decent manner.
But when this one-legged man used this move, his momentum was overwhelming. The force was so strong that it stirred up a howling wind. Before the iron staff even arrived, a heavy pressure swept over him like a whirlwind, causing Lin Xian'er to unconsciously retreat, as if she were being hit by a wave.
Taking advantage of the situation, the green-faced old man drew his knife and stabbed again. The thin blade resembled the forelegs of a mantis, and was coated with poison. Just from the sneak attack, a cloud of green poisonous mist followed closely behind, stirring up a foul stench.
The two attacks came and went so quickly that it was impossible to keep up.
But Wei Wu simply flipped his palms, reducing his six arms back to two, and steadily caught the two men's attacks.
Immediately afterward, Wei Wu raised his arm and tucked the iron staff under his ribs. His arm coiled around the staff like a snake, tightening the one-legged iron staff.
The one-legged man's scarred face contorted in a grotesque grimace, veins bulging and swelling to a liver-colored hue. He stomped his foot hard on the ground, his arms gripping the staff, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't pull it out.
"impossible!"
Upon seeing this, Shangguan Fei cried out in surprise.
This one-legged man is none other than Zhuge Gang, the "Iron-Crutch King Kong," ranked eighth on the Weapon Ranking. He also has a nickname, "Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies," because his pair of iron crutches weigh a full 63 jin (approximately 31.5 kg), and when he wields them, they have the power to sweep through a thousand armies, making him an invincible warrior!
He couldn't understand why Wei Wu, at such a young age, could so easily take down that heavy iron crutch.
Tai Chi Cotton Palm, kid!
Wei Wu sneered inwardly.
Wang Lianhua's mother was once the most beautiful woman in the world, and the most notorious female demon in the world—"Yunmeng Fairy" Wang Yunmeng, whose "Tianyun Five-Flower Brocade" hidden weapon skills terrified heroes all over the world.
But what no one could have imagined was that the source of this Heavenly Cloud Five-Flower Brocade was a brocade of various extremely gentle palm techniques from the martial arts world. Its movements were as graceful as clouds spreading and unfolding, like an endless dream, elusive and unpredictable.
Therefore, Wang Lianhua was well-versed in the essence of various palm techniques, especially the Tai Chi Cotton Palm. When writing the Lianhua Treasure Mirror, he naturally did not forget to include it.
Even if Zhuge Gang truly possessed immense strength, Cao Cao only needed to stand firmly on the ground and use his soft palm technique to neutralize the force.
The only cost is two pairs of worn-out shoes and the floorboards completely shattered!
"Let go!" The green-faced old man's sneak attack also failed, and Wei Wu caught his mantis-shaped poisoned knife with just two fingers.
Afterwards, he even sneered at Zhuge Gang and Shangguan Fei, which was unbearable for him.
Although he was not ranked high on the weapons list and his poisoning skills were not as amazing as those of the Five Poison Boy, he was confident that no one in the world could surpass his poison. Anyone who came into contact with it would die from the poison within an hour once a wound was opened.
Therefore, he immediately took the opportunity to turn the blade, attempting to cut a gash in Wei Wu's hand.
But Wei Wu's two fingers were as hard as diamond pincers. Even with all his strength, he couldn't pull them out. Even trying to turn them was as difficult as climbing to heaven. The idea of opening a bloody gash on Wei Wu's hand was as ridiculous as a eunuch going to a brothel.
But they weren't the only two experts here!
Seeing that neither Zhuge Gang nor "Poisonous Mantis" Tang Du could defeat Wei Wu, but they were both holding his arm back, Shangguan Fei was immediately filled with malice and anger. "You are very powerful, but the martial world is not just about fighting!"
The steel rings in his hand jingled again, but instead of being thrown, he held them tightly in his palm and leaned forward.
Almost there?
This time, I'll personally smash the steel ring into your face and see if that's any better!
Shangguan Fei attacked in anger, and his speed was three times faster than before.
But reality isn't a comic book where shouting "friendship," "bonds," or "rage" will unleash your full power. The difference in strength is like math—if you don't know it, you just don't know it!
Wei Wu waited for Shangguan Fei to rush up to him, then looked up at the perfect moment and kicked him in the dantian, sending him flying through the window and out of the inn.
Showing off?
Try to show off, or I'll make you fly!
