WHOOSH~~
The airflow whirled within the Butcher Court, the residual force of that staff strike still echoing, dispelling dust and sand in all directions.
That was close!
Chen Ku leaned his long staff in his hand and stood his ground, staring at Xie Qi, the Fourth Realm Expert from the Firewood Iron Shop whose head he had just smashed with his staff. A lingering sense of shock and fear still gripped him.
In that instant when Xie Qi had swung his hammer to attack, the lightning-fast speed, combined with the Qi Power of a Fourth Realm Great Martial Man, had exerted an indescribable pressure on Chen Ku.
If not for his diverse array of methods and abilities, the slightest mistake at that moment would have meant he, not Xie Qi, would be the one lying dead.
Indeed, in a direct confrontation, a single mistake or flaw can be fatal. It feels completely different from a sneak attack from behind.
