After punching Fang Wuwei back again, Xiao Hua turned his head to glance at Lotte, who was still slumped on the ground, veins bulging on his forehead.
"You motherf*cker! Hurry up!"
"Alright, alright~~"
Lotte mumbled, the blood floating around his body began to glow, slowly returning to his body from the two large holes in his chest. His shattered heart began to beat again, and the two large holes in his chest also began to rapidly heal and scab over… but this process still required time, and Xiao Hua needed to stall a bit longer.
Dodging Fang Wuwei's slash with a tilt of his head, Xiao Hua punched Fang Wuwei in the abdomen, sending him flying. Fang Wuwei spat out a mouthful of saliva, fell to the ground, and his knife slipped from his grasp, flying out and sticking into the ground not far away.
Looking at Fang Wuwei, who was curled up on the ground not far away, Xiao Hua did not act rashly. He was afraid it was a trick, and he also needed to protect Lotte… Lotte was completely defenseless in his present state.
"You, ah, I have to protect you. Before you fully recover, you're completely useless in a fight."
Muttering a complaint to himself, Xiao Hua violently pulled down and tore off the tie around his neck. He ripped open his neat clothes with his bare hands, revealing his bulging, powerful muscles underneath.
From a somewhat slender man, he instantly transformed into a muscular brute. Xiao Hua's bare upper body began to glow with that cyan-blue energy. At this moment, his physical body was greatly enhanced. For the person in front of him, he had to go all out.
"Come!"
He rushed forward and stomped down violently, but at the crucial moment, Fang Wuwei rolled over and narrowly dodged it. He struggled to his feet, but as soon as he stood upright, Xiao Hua landed a fierce punch to his abdomen, sending him stumbling back several steps.
So weak.
"Ha! Is that all you've got? Come on!"
Xiao Hua provoked the frantically coughing Fang Wuwei, even extending a finger and performing a legendary combination of the One-Yang Finger and Lion's Roar, wildly taunting Fang Wuwei.
How could he tolerate this? He immediately grabbed his knife and went for him.
Dodging Fang Wuwei's knife strike with a tilt of his head, Xiao Hua felt something was off…
Where did the knife come from?
Turning his head, he clearly saw Fang Wuwei's knife stuck in the ground, reflecting a cold gleam from the moonlight.
Forget it… never mind. Xiao Hua shook his head, punched Fang Wuwei's wrist, knocking the knife to the ground, and then kicked him flying again.
…Too weak…
Xiao Hua was already too lazy to bother with Fang Wuwei. Weaklings weren't worth his precious time. So he rushed forward, the energy bursting from his entire body illuminating the area. The cyan-blue glow lit up Fang Wuwei's face, and Xiao Hua could see fear and panic on his face.
This was the expression he loved to see most on an enemy's face, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his lips, but his fists mercilessly pounded Fang Wuwei's body. Swift and powerful punches landed one after another, even creating explosive sounds in the air. Strong and powerful fists slammed into Fang Wuwei like raindrops, impossible to block, impossible to dodge.
Muda muda muda muda muda muda muda muda muda!! Muda!!
After the combo came a heavy punch, sending Fang Wuwei flying dozens of meters high, leaving a trail of blood in the air. Fang Wuwei, who landed on the ground, was no longer recognizable as human. His entire body was covered in blood, and even the bones in his hands and feet were shattered beyond recognition.
Exhaling heavily, Xiao Hua turned his head to look at Lotte, who was still recovering, a look of disdain on his face.
"I told you… why are you recovering so slowly today?"
"...I think it's the problem with the braised beef noodles."
"Damn you! I think you're just slacking off!!"
"...Hehe☆~"
"Don't disgust me!"
Xiao Hua slapped Lotte to the ground, but Lotte seemed unfazed, scratching the slapped spot and chuckling. A burst of energy emanated from his body, instantly drawing all the blood that had been floating around him back into his body, and the two large holes in his chest instantly healed.
"You really were slacking off! You scoundrel!!"
"Oh, come on… don't worry about it~ After all, you were here, weren't you? Thanks to you for stalling~"
Xiao Hua narrowed his eyes, looking at Lotte with a very strange expression.
"Why are you so polite to me today?"
"Heh… didn't you save my life? Was that person strong?"
"Ha! Him? I can handle him with one hand!"
Xiao Hua instantly became arrogant. So you, kid, will thank me too, huh! Then I have to put on a show.
"It's his bad luck! What kind of person am I? I'm someone with metal repulsion! Metal objects can't kill me, let alone he's a swordsman. Even if I don't fight back and let him hack for seven or eight days, he still can't kill me! And you, you good-for-nothing, if it weren't for me, you'd be dead here!"
Xiao Hua stepped over Lotte, who was sitting on the ground, and touched Fang Wuwei's relic beside him, the Cavaliere motorcycle. He examined it closely, liking it more and more the more he looked. Such a cool bike definitely deserved him!
"Is that so… Thank you."
Xiao Hua was still carefully touching the motorcycle, observing the patterns and decorations on it, completely oblivious that the voice behind him was not Lotte's.
"Thank me for what? Just call me Dad, why be polite with Dad?"
"Thank you for the information."
"Information? What are you saying…?"
Xiao Hua still found it strange and was about to turn around to ask for clarification when he felt a sharp pain in his chest, so intense that he doubted his present existence… He looked down in disbelief and saw a blood-soaked hand piercing through his chest, clutching his heart, with several blood vessels still attached. His heart… was beating right before his eyes.
The intense pain awakened his mind. His vision instantly turned crimson, then the world became bright black and white, and then… he saw a different scene. He was still standing in place, Lotte and the Cavaliere were several meters away from him. He saw Lotte's body still impaled on the motorcycle's spike, but his head was nowhere to be found.
Behind him… someone…
"I said, thank you for the information, Xiao Hua."
Fang Wuwei slowly emerged from behind Xiao Hua, his hand piercing through Xiao Hua's chest, his right eye glowing with an eerie crimson light.
