Chapter 679: Chapter 679 Thundering Sword Technique
"Is that so? Then I’ll let you have a taste of the Dong Family’s Kung Fu!" Dong Qilong declared.
The next moment, Dong Qilong moved, instantly executing the Escaping Rabbit Step Technique. At the same time, the momentum of his sword shifted as he unleashed the Dong Family’s Thundering Sword Technique.
Feet as nimble as an escaping rabbit and a sword as swift as rolling thunder—these were the Dong Family’s signature techniques. The Escaping Rabbit Step Technique and the Thundering Sword Technique complemented each other, unleashing their greatest power when used together. The Escaping Rabbit Step Technique was meant for deception, while the Thundering Sword Technique was all about speed—as fast as a thunderbolt!
Watching the change in Dong Qilong’s techniques, Lin Kuang’s expression grew solemn. The combination of the Escaping Rabbit Step Technique and the Thundering Sword Technique was terrifyingly powerful when unleashed. Lin Kuang was forced to retreat continuously, his Antelope Hanging Horn Sword Technique completely suppressed.
Seeing Lin Kuang on the defensive, a cold sneer appeared on Dong Qilong’s face. How dare he underestimate the Dong Family? Dong Qilong was determined to kill Lin Kuang!
"Kid, can’t you handle it? This is the might of the Dong Family! This day next year will be your death anniversary!" Dong Qilong sneered. In his eyes, Lin Kuang was already a dead man.
Watching Dong Qilong’s arrogant demeanor, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but sneer back.
"Oh, really? You think you have me in the bag? You’re sorely underestimating me!"
Hearing this, Dong Qilong’s expression shifted slightly before he sneered again. "Is that so? You think you can fight back?"
"We’ll see, won’t we? Let me show you whether I can fight back or not!" Lin Kuang retorted with a smirk.
With that, Lin Kuang’s footwork changed. The Extreme Shadow Illusion transformed into the Bagua Steps. Simultaneously, his sword technique also shifted, the Antelope Hanging Horn Sword Technique instantly becoming the Chaotic Tai Chi Sword.
In an instant, Lin Kuang’s movements and the speed of his strikes slowed down, yet his entire being exuded a peculiar aura, as if he had merged with nature itself. The Chaotic Tai Chi Sword was slow, but Tai Chi was a powerful martial art known for using slowness to overcome speed. It was the perfect counter to the Thundering Sword Technique, suppressing it completely!
In a flash, the tide of the battle turned dramatically. A moment ago, Dong Qilong had been suppressing Lin Kuang, but now, Lin Kuang had turned the tables and was suppressing him.
Dong Qilong’s face turned ugly. He had been boasting just moments before, and now he was the one being pushed back by Lin Kuang. The feeling was infuriating; it was like slapping his own face.
"How about that? Seems my resistance isn’t too shabby, is it?" Lin Kuang couldn’t help but ask, looking at Dong Qilong’s ugly expression.
"You... how do you know the Tai Chi Sword?!" Dong Qilong demanded, his face contorted. He had seen the Tai Chi Sword before, but Lin Kuang’s version seemed different from any he had encountered. He couldn’t quite put his finger on what was different, but it felt strange.
"How do I know the Tai Chi Sword? Simple. I’m on good terms with the Chen Family," Lin Kuang said with a smile.
Hearing this, Dong Qilong was taken aback, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Kid, stop trying to fool me! Your relationship with the Chen Family isn’t that good!" he sneered.
"That’s just what you think. How could an outsider like you possibly know the truth?" Lin Kuang shot back, his gaze mocking.
At this, Dong Qilong’s expression grew even darker. How Lin Kuang learned the Tai Chi Sword didn’t matter. What was important was that he was now being suppressed, a feeling that infuriated Dong Qilong.
At this point, Lin Kuang couldn’t be bothered with him anymore. He wanted to use this opportunity to finish Dong Qilong off. After all, Fan Mohao and Fan Moran were tied up with the other Dong Family members, giving him the perfect chance to kill Dong Qilong. Otherwise, once the Dong Family members realized what was happening, his situation would become extremely dangerous.
With this in mind, Lin Kuang pressed his attack. His Bagua Steps grew more profound, and the Chaotic Tai Chi Sword in his hand became increasingly fierce. However, killing Dong Qilong was no easy task. After all, he was a peak Skyline expert. Even though Lin Kuang was suppressing him, finishing him off would still require a considerable amount of time.
Seeing Dong Qilong still holding on, Lin Kuang started to feel anxious. If this dragged on, it would become very disadvantageous for him.
However, just as Lin Kuang was pondering this, Fan Mohao, Fan Moran, Dong Qibao, and the four remaining Dong Family Ancient Warriors all charged toward him at once. Murderous intent radiated from each of them, their eyes screaming their desire to tear him to shreds.
Seeing this, Dong Qilong froze, confused about what was happening.
Lin Kuang, however, knew exactly what was going on, and his heart sank. These bastards must have used Sound Transmission to explain everything. Why else would they all be targeting me now?
Thinking fast, Lin Kuang suddenly shouted, "Thanks for the help, Brother Fan! Quick, help me finish this old geezer off!"
As he spoke, his figure flashed, and he leaped out of the combat circle.
Dong Qilong was momentarily stunned and was about to attack Fan Mohao and Fan Moran.
But just then, Dong Qibao yelled, "Second Brother, don’t attack! It’s a misunderstanding! A complete misunderstanding! These two are from the Fan Family! They’re also here to assassinate Lin Kuang. They aren’t with him!"
During their fight, Dong Qibao and Fan Mohao had become genuinely enraged, nearly fighting to the death. However, Fan Mohao had managed to regain control of his emotions. He realized that if he and Dong Qibao seriously injured each other, only Lin Kuang would benefit. So, he had used Sound Transmission to repeatedly explain the situation to Dong Qibao. In the end, Dong Qibao was convinced. He’d had his own suspicions, and Fan Mohao’s logical explanation and proof confirmed them.
Once they had reached an understanding, they agreed to team up against Lin Kuang. That was why they had all attacked him together just now.
Hearing Dong Qibao’s words, Dong Qilong was stunned again.
In the moment Dong Qilong was distracted, Fan Mohao and Fan Moran charged straight for Lin Kuang, completely ignoring Dong Qilong. Seeing this, Dong Qilong finally understood. They had all been duped by that bastard Lin Kuang!
"Lin Kuang, you’re not getting away today! We will kill you!" Fan Mohao roared, his eyes filled with intense killing intent.
Having been played for fools, Fan Mohao and Fan Moran were about to explode with rage.
At this point, Lin Kuang dropped the act. He had been exposed, so there was no point in pretending anymore.
"You really are a bunch of idiots. Tsk, tsk. See you around."
With that, Lin Kuang departed immediately, refusing to get drawn into another fight.
