Chapter 674 - 276 History Resurfaces
Bang bang!
When Grandpa Wu moved, his whole body constantly emitted explosive sounds, visible air currents turned into white circular ripples and spread out.
The tiny ripples continuously burst as Grandpa Wu moved, similar to the sound of a whip.
Li Xiu was slightly surprised; the explosion was clearly the sound burst after the body broke through the sound barrier.
Breaking through the sound barrier with speed is not surprising, Li Xiu can do it too, but for someone like Grandpa Wu to be able to break through the sound barrier with every move, that’s not something everyone can do.
It’s not difficult to break through the sound barrier with speed, but Grandpa Wu’s muscles moving over extremely short distances can break the sound barrier, now that’s a bit terrifying.
Watching the constantly exploding sonic booms from Grandpa Wu’s body, Li Xiu’s expression turned slightly more serious.
Being able to break the sound barrier just with the vibration of flesh and bone requires not only high speed but also extremely strong explosive power and control, otherwise such high-speed muscle vibrations would hurt one’s own body before injuring the enemy.
Buzz!
Grandpa Wu started moving, unbelievably fast.
There was no light energy explosion, yet he could rely solely on muscle power to elevate short-distance speed to such levels, Li Xiu’s S-grade physical body couldn’t do that.
However, since Grandpa Wu did not use light energy, Li Xiu also refrained from using light energy, his footsteps transforming to dodge Grandpa Wu’s attacks.
Bang bang bang bang!
Grandpa Wu’s fists rapidly pounded, each punch carrying a sonic boom, so fast it was almost dizzying.
Li Xiu swayed left and right, continually retreating amidst the violent fist shadows.
The gas produced by the sonic booms tore Li Xiu’s hair into a flying mess; slightly slower, and the sonic boom passing by cut his hair directly.
Li Xiu retreated again and again amid Grandpa Wu’s frenetic pounding, his body twisting into various impossible angles.
His body no longer resembled a human, more like a steel python, able to twist his waist and bones to degrees humans should never be able to achieve.
His head could twist a full circle, waist and limbs could intertwine like numbness, launching attacks from various inconceivable angles.
Boom!
Li Xiu failed to dodge and had to block Grandpa Wu’s punch with his arms, resulting in a heavy blow that sent him flying backward for over a dozen meters before landing on the ground.
Li Xiu felt his arm bones ache as if broken, while Grandpa Wu charged forward with a sinister laugh, his snake-like arms entwining toward Li Xiu’s neck.
"Quite an impressive body, are everyone in the City of Love this strong? These people aren’t ordinary citizens, why exactly are they here?" Li Xiu thought to himself, though his feet never stopped, repeatedly dodging Grandpa Wu’s weird and terrifying attacks.
Li Xiu retreated again and again, soon reaching the end of the alley, where there was no room left to retreat.
Just as Grandpa Wu was about to force Li Xiu into a desperate situation, Li Xiu crossed his feet, suddenly spinning backward, dodging Grandpa Wu’s fist while landing a punch on Grandpa Wu’s abdomen.
Boom!
The sound barrier shattered, Li Xiu’s fist didn’t touch Grandpa Wu’s flesh; when he felt his fist about to hit, the muscle quickly contracted, triggering a sonic boom that invalidated Li Xiu’s punch location, then bounced off at sound-breaking speed, forcefully shaking Li Xiu’s fist back.
Li Xiu’s body retreated, hitting the wall to disperse the rebound force.
"To have lasted this long under my Fluctuating Fist, you can certainly be proud." Grandpa Wu licked his lips, eyeing Li Xiu like a ravenous python about to strike.
"This technique is called Fluctuating Fist?" Li Xiu leaned against the wall, calmly looking at Grandpa Wu.
"Correct, I started practicing martial arts at three years old, spending twenty-seven years training my muscles, bones, and organs to the point of perfect control; now every inch of muscle in my body can unleash sound-barrier-breaking power, this is the ultimate skill of human body control, you should rest in peace dying under my Fluctuating Fist." Grandpa Wu said feverishly: "So, any last words before you die?"
"This technique is indeed strong, but to kill me, it’s probably not enough." Li Xiu replied.
"Do you think using light energy will allow you to survive? I advise you not to do so, for if you do, I will no longer restrain my power, and you will only die more miserably." Grandpa Wu’s every move exuded powerful pressure, and even his words did so.
Li Xiu knew Grandpa Wu wasn’t bluffing; he could feel the tremendous light energy within Grandpa Wu, perhaps not just at the light base level, possibly even spirit casting.
Such a powerful person was actually killed in a single blow by that cloaked man, to what extent was that cloaked man powerful, it’s truly unimaginable.
"I don’t intend to use light energy, Grandpa Wu, can you tell me, why would someone as strong as you be willing to be a small shop owner here?" Li Xiu asked.
"Find the answer in hell." Grandpa Wu said, as his body emitted chaotic sonic booms, charging toward Li Xiu; his entire body was a terrifying weapon of death, requiring no strikes to injure Li Xiu, just contact with his body would severely damage Li Xiu.
Li Xiu knew words were meaningless now, the only option was to first defeat Grandpa Wu.
Li Xiu’s expression slightly froze, his muscles suddenly contracting, entwining around his bones like veins.
