Chapter 277 - Xiao Bing, a Man of Void-Breaking

Chapter 277 Xiao Bing, a Man of Void-Breaking

Han Huabin didn’t try his best. He only delivered some harmless but intriguing blows. Hence, though Xiao Bing seemed strenuous, he was still fighting. Ever since Xiao Bing once reached the level of Void-breaking, no one could defeat Xiao Bing merely by using martial movements.

Top masters were often lonesome, just as what one might read from a novel.

When Xiao Bing was fighting Han Huabin, his comprehension of martial arts was being enriched gradually, which made him happier than the elevation of levels because he had once reached these levels before. But what he gained today was something he had never acquired before.

Xiao Bing seemed obsessed with martial arts. Though Han Huabin seemed desultory, he was surprised after he had delivered dozens of strikes. In fact, he only exerted about 40 percent of his power. He would not let out all his power, since he thought himself as the senior. He had believed that he could kill Xiao Bing without relying on his strength but with the abstruseness of his movements. Xiao Bing was on the back foot at first, but after quite a while, it seemed difficult to tell who was about to win.

Han Huabin was shocked because he had not expected that the martial arts Xiao Bing performed were as abstruse as his own. Even Lord Long was not capable of that. Han Huabin had been studying martial arts for years, which made him almost the best expert in that area. Yet he had not expected that this young man he met today could compare to him on that matter.

Han Huabin was much stronger than Xiao Bing. Within dozens of movements, he could defeat Xiao Bing even with 40 or 60 percent of his power. However, since Han Huabin had reached a certain level, he had never met one who could fight him with only martial arts. Now that he met a young man who could, it was like a great chess player suddenly meeting another great chess player. It was a fight they had been longing for.

Han Huabin deliberately controlled his strength to a level that was similar to Xiao Bing’s. They only performed pure movements. Xiao Bing was under attack at first, but now they were having a fair battle.

Gao Fei finally arrived. But he didn’t intend to join the fight when he saw it. He sat quietly on the roof, watching the fight earnestly.

In the blink of an eye, Han Huabin and Xiao Bing traded a hundred movements. Yet neither of them seemed about to win.

Both of them were astounded by the abstruseness of each other’s movements. They both found their foe to be a seasoned fighter. In truth, Han Huabin had dedicated himself to martial arts for years and Xiao Bing had accomplished so many dangerous missions.

Though the fight didn’t seem fierce, it was more dangerous than any other fight. Gao Fei was the only one who could understand the abstruseness of their movements. The three of them all acquired quite a lot of new understandings of martial arts.

They were still matching blows as it was getting dark. Gao Fei had been watching the whole time. The fight was still on when the sun was about to rise and Gao Fei was still watching with his stern eyes.

“Young man, indeed your comprehension of martial arts is profound. If we weren’t enemies, I would not have had intentions to kill you.”

After all, Han Huabin was an old man. His remaining strength could not support him to fight any longer. He decided to make it quick and end this fight with all his might. But he still felt pity that this talented young man was about to die at his hands.

“Come on. Let me see what you truly got,” Xiao Bing bellowed, his resilience plain in his eyes.

Gao Fei suddenly stood up as Han Huabin stamped on the ground. But it seemed too late for him to save Xiao Bing. He was immersed in their fight.

Han Huabin came hard at Xiao Bing with massive strength. Xiao Bing didn’t try to dodge or flinch. The blow sent him hurtling meters away. However, he clambered to his feet, though he hawked up a glob of blood.

Xiao Bing felt like his organs had been shifted from their original places. Han Huabin knew well of the power he exerted on his palm. Noticing that Xiao Bing was still on his feet, he could not help exclaiming, “You’re even more unyielding than Lord Long.”

Xiao Bing sniggered, “Don’t compare me to that man.”

“Your arrogance is no less than his though.” Han Huabin bellowed again as he lashed out with more formidable power on his palms.

Xiao Bing held his head up, hinting to Gao Fei that he should stay out of this. But Gao Fei hesitated. If he did not interrupt, Xiao Bing could be killed by this blow. But if he did, it would be an insult to Xiao Bing because it was a fight between Xiao Bing and Han Huabin.

Gao Fei sighed and sat back on the roof. He closed his eyes. But they suddenly snapped open with a dazzling beam of light shining in his eyes. Inside it, there were admiration, delight, and disbelief… He had never thought that in this world there was one man who could make him so shocked.

Xiao Bing was badly wounded. It was lucky for him that he was still alive because the strength of the blow that Han Huabin just delivered was even more formidable than the one before. He exerted all his strength. It was his respect for Xiao Bing and also a presage that he was determined to send Xiao Bing to hell.

But he had not expected that Xiao Bing would not only not try to parry, he would also close his eyes. “Did he give up on his life?”

Han Huabin understood it. It was Xiao Bing’s strong spirit that enabled him to stand now. It seemed that Xiao Bing decided to let the gods decide his fate.

But when his two palms were about to hit Xiao Bing, he suddenly had a feeling of uneasiness. There was seemingly infinite power flooding from his dantian into every corner of his body. Xiao Bing bellowed and opened his eyes as he lashed out with his palms. Han Huabin felt like there was a volcano erupting in front of him. The fire surrounded him, burning away the power on his palms.

Xiao Bing’s power was too formidable for him to resist. He stumbled backward five or six steps after being hit by Xiao Bing’s palms. He managed to steady himself and found that he was unharmed. Obviously, it was not that Xiao Bing could not kill him. The power that erupted from Xiao Bing’s body was formidable enough for Xiao Bing to kill him like slaying a chicken.

Shocked, Han Huabin stared at Xiao Bing in vast disbelief, as did Gao Fei.

Gao Fei and Han Huabin both entered the realm Xiao Bing created. In this realm, Xiao Bing was God.

Gao Fei and Han Huabin also spoke in unison, “You have reached the Void-breaking level?”

Han Huabin was too surprised to even notice Gao Fei’s existence.

Xiao Bing looked at his hands and felt like he could dominate everything again. The infinite power that was flowing inside of him was stronger than ever.

“I knew the power would be back.” Xiao Bing looked at his hands, his eyes afire with excitement. He bellowed like he was unbosoming himself, “I now announce that Jiang City is a city that forbids any violence. Anyone who dares to threaten my friends or family will be killed by me, even Mr. Buddha!”

Xiao Bing suddenly jumped up. He was not flying, but he was four or five meters above the ground for quite some time. The moment he was about to land on the ground, he lashed out with a fist that seemed able to tremble the sky and earth. The walls several meters away from him were all smashed to pieces instantly.

Xiao Bing looked at Han Huabin after he landed.

Han Huabin put on a bitter smile while shaking his head. “I can’t understand. How did you become so… powerful?”

Xiao Bing smiled as he looked at Han Huabin. “Do you believe that I’m a genius?”

Han Huabin shook his head while smiling bitterly. Then he stared at Xiao Bing while holding on to his cane. “I have been obsessed with martial arts my whole life. I thought that I was at the end of this path. Yet you showed me that it’s not the end. You won. Indeed, the world is not short of talents. Small wonder you defeated Lord Long. Give me a quick death then.”

“You said Chinese martial arts are far more profound than those of Country R. I said I won’t kill you because of that. Do you remember? I will keep my word.”

Han Huabin looked at Xiao Bing, the complication plain in his eyes. “You aren’t worried that I might be a trouble to you?”

Xiao Bing answered gravely while looking at this old man, “I’ll do what I said. It’s not because of my confidence or arrogance. It’s magnanimity.”

“Magnanimity. What a perfect word for it.” Han Huabin truly began admiring this young man. He repeated what he had said before, “Small wonder you defeated Lord Long!”

A fish can turn into a dragon when it embraces winds and clouds.
