1215 Strip the King (1/2)
”You little twat! You have no idea who you're dealing with!”
Armored Ape King glared at Chen Xiaobei, anger burning in his eyes.
”Hey kid! You really are quite ballsy! Our king has already recovered. We are surrounded by our armies! You will die today!” an Ape Soldier shouted.
He and the Ape King were of the same species but he was one size smaller. On its body adorned a metal shell, a strong self-defense armor. It was only a few years away from being the next Ape King!
”If you want to kill me then go ahead and attack!” Chen Xiaobei shouted. ”I have already said this before: if you want to kill me, get ready to lose your life!”
”Please stop trying to act tough!” Ape Soldier shot him a look of disdain. ”If it were not for that crescent saber, you wouldn't be alive right now! Our king only retreated because his highness eye was bleeding profusely. Now that his condition is stable, you will die in the hands of our great king!”
Chen Xiaobei was unfazed by the beast's claims.
”Since you're so confident of your king, why don't we make a bet?”
”What do you have in mind?”
The Ape Soldier looked at Chen Xiaobei in the eyes, unyielding, clearly assured of his king's fighting skills.
”Well, we'll bet on whether I can defeat your king.”
”You? Defeat our king? Please! If a piece of trash like you defeats our king, I will surrender my life to you!”
”If that's the case, then I shall claim my prize now.”
”Your prize? Have you lost your mind? The fight hasn't even started. What did you win?”
”Your life, of course! I've already won this fight!”
What? I really think you're delusional! Severely delusional!” replied Ape Soldier, not a trace of fear in his voice. ”Our king is still here! Alive and well! Don't think you can even touch a strand of hair on me while his highness is here!”
”I won't touch a hair…” Chen Xiaobei raised the saber. ”I only want your life!”
Chen Xiaobei was about ten meters away from the Ape Soldier. It looked like an impossible distance for Chen Xiaobei to strike the Ape Soldier.
But in a blink of an eye, the dark Saber Qi was unleashed like the breath of a dragon, exuding a strong, oppressive presence. But the black Saber Qi was not tangible. It looked like a harmless ray of light. Seemingly, it was harmless.
”What kind of crazy are you? Why are you drawing your saber from that far away? Are you here to joke around?”
The Ape Soldier raised an eyebrow.
”No! Move!” Armored Ape King realized what was happening and reached out to push the Ape Soldier out of the way but he was too late!
Zing!
The black Qi Saber, which appeared benign, was actually armed with a dense Wind Element, condensed to form a razor-sharp wind blade.
Phissh!
The black wind blade went right through the center of the Ape Soldier's body and came out of his back.
The seven meter tall Armored Ape Soldier was chopped into two halves like a block of firewood.
The cut was clean all the way through. Its flesh, organs and even vertebrae were evenly halved.
More mindboggling was the metal shell on the Ape Soldier was also cut cleanly through as if it was made of paper!
One strike! Two halves!
Ape Soldier! Dead!
Crack!
The black wind blade's aura was still lingering around, and left a deep crack on the wall behind the Ape Soldier!
”How… How is this possible…” Armored Ape King froze in disbelief. ”My… nephew… is dead just like that? He's supposed to be my successor! With that armor on his body, his strength was at least eight times stronger than mine…. How could he have been killed just like that… Impossible… This is impossible!”
