Chapter 387 Not Daring to Neglect
Chapter 387 Not Daring to Neglect
As a cunning old fox, Zhao Tianming struck first. He took a step forward, and the ground began to shake. He raised his knee and smashed it down on Chen Er's head.
Don't underestimate Zhao Tianming just because he's old and frail; the explosive power hidden in his knees is unimaginable. Chen Er didn't dare to be careless and subconsciously took a few steps back.
Chen Er picked up a table behind him and slammed it viciously against Zhao Tianming's knee. With a crisp crack, the table broke.
But Zhao Tianming's knee didn't stop there; it viciously rammed into Chen Er's stomach, causing Chen Er to instinctively spin around.
Chen Er suddenly had a table leg in his hand, which he used to continuously whip Zhao Tianming's knees.
Zhao Tianming's bones were incredibly hard. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain, and attacked Chen Er once again.
This time, Zhao Tianming acted swiftly and ruthlessly, directly grabbing Chen Er's neck and attempting to strangle him to death.
Zhao Tianming finally felt relieved, but Chen Er instinctively swept his leg out with lightning speed. Even Zhao Tianming, no matter how powerful he was, never expected Chen Er to use such a move against him.
Zhao Tianming cried out and sat down on the ground. Chen Er knew his chance had come, and he wasn't about to let it slip away. He kicked Zhao Tianming in the head with one foot.
This is a life-or-death battle. If either of them is even slightly careless, they will be beaten to death by the other.
The situation would then be reversed, so Zhao Tianming rolled on the ground to silently dodge Chen Er's fatal blow.
Before Zhao Tianming could react, Ma Dazhi, who was standing not far away, slashed Zhao Tianming's neck with his large knife.
A smug smile appeared on Ma Dazhi's lips. Zhao Tianming thought to himself, "It's one thing for Chen Er to attack me, but I didn't expect Chen Er's men to be so zealous."
Ma Dazhi either doesn't make a move at all, or when he does, he's aiming to take his own life.
Without any hesitation, Zhao Tianming rolled over once more before finally standing up.
However, Chen Er is also in a bad situation. Zhang Dashu has been keeping a close eye on Chen Er for a long time. Just now, after Chen Er swept Zhao Tianming down with a leg sweep, Zhang Dashu ran over with a long knife.
Chen Er also felt a strange wind coming from behind him. Without turning his head, Chen Er knew that someone must be attacking him from behind.
Chen Er instinctively stretched out a foot and quickly lashed out. Zhang Dashu, a strong man, was a martial arts master in the past.
It was only by chance that he became Zhao Tianming's henchman, so Zhang Dashu's martial arts skills were also quite remarkable. Zhang Dashu was furious with Chen Er.
Chen Er hadn't expected Zhang Dashu to act so swiftly. It was impossible for Chen Er to pull his leg back. He had no chance to launch another attack with his own foot.
Zhang Dashu smiled indifferently: "Lord Chen Er, I apologize for offending you. You can only blame yourself for offending my master. Don't think you're so great just because you've become a first-rank official at such a young age. Today you can go see the King of Hell."
Zhang Dashu's voice was so cold that Chen Er couldn't help but shiver.
However, Chen Er knew very well that he absolutely could not back down in such an environment, otherwise he would surely die today. Chen Er forcibly suppressed the fear and tension in his heart.
With one foot planted firmly on the ground, Chen Er's body assumed an odd posture, and his other foot landed on Zhang Dashu's shoulder in mid-air.
Chen Er's actions left Zhang Dashu completely bewildered. Before Zhang Dashu could even react, Chen Er's spinning speed increased.
Chen Er grabbed Zhang Dashu's neck with both legs and knocked the burly man down. Zhang Dashu had just finished cleaning up when Chen Er beat him to it.
Zhang Dashu was furious. Good heavens, he, a member of the martial arts world, couldn't even beat a first-rank official. If word got out, where would he put his face?
Moreover, if Zhang Dashu can successfully help Zhao Tianming kill Chen Er, then Zhao Tianming will definitely reward Zhang Dashu.
Moreover, aren't all the Jianghu figures in Zhang Dashu doing things for the imperial court for money and their future?
Zhang Dashu knew that if he could seize this opportunity, he would become a high-ranking official. Thinking of this, Zhang Dashu's eyes turned red, and Chen Er felt that Zhang Dashu had turned into a wild beast, roaring incessantly.
Zhang Dashu's two enormous fists lashed out at Chen Er's stomach. Chen Er reacted quickly, kicking off the wall with both legs and spinning in the air. He then lashed out with one foot at Zhang Dashu's head, a strange gust of wind blowing Zhang Dashu's hair out of the air.
Zhang Dashu subconsciously gritted his teeth, half-squatted on the ground, and suddenly gave Chen Er a bear hug. Zhang Dashu accurately grabbed Chen Er's legs; this time, Zhang Dashu was not underestimating his opponent.
Zhang Dashu spun around in place, then roared and slammed Chen Er's body against the corner of the wall.
Chen Er felt his internal organs churning inside him. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of crimson blood. Chen Er hadn't expected Zhang Dashu to be so ruthless. Chen Er laughed and got up from the ground, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Zhang Dashu, you're quite something, daring to assault this official! What is your crime? Today I will kill you!" Chen Er's angry voice did not faze Zhang Dashu at all; Zhang Dashu only showed Chen Er a mocking expression.
"Chen Er, you're so adorable! Don't you see the situation clearly? You still think you're a first-rank official? You're a dead man now. If you know what's good for you, kneel down and wait for our lord's judgment."
Zhang Dashu said something very sarcastic.
Without any hesitation, Chen Er picked up a long knife from the ground. He knew that this was a matter of life and death, and he absolutely could not delay. It would be foolish not to use a weapon. When Zhang Dashu saw that Chen Er had picked up a weapon, he couldn't help but grin.
