Urban Ace Bodyguard

Chapter 1210 - 1279: Never Afraid of Life or Death

Bam!The two men's fists collided fiercely.

The ground emitted a fragile creaking sound, as cracks radiated outward from beneath their feet.

"How can you withstand my punch?"

Cao Ziqing was forced back three steps by the tremendous force, surprise showing in his crimson pupils.

"Is there anything surprising about that?"

Lin Hai was also shaken back three steps, his fist feeling a bit numb and his joints aching.

Evidently, from that initial exchange, both parties' strength was almost evenly matched—peers meeting equally skilled opponents.

Though he feigned a relaxed expression, Lin Hai was actually extremely shocked inside.

What on earth was this Blood Marrow Demon Seed that allowed Cao Ziqing to wield power not inferior to the Legendary level?

"Again!"

Their figures once again sprinted toward each other at high speed.

Bam!

Bang bang bang!

The sound of fists colliding rang continuously.

Lin Hai possessed exquisite techniques, but Cao Ziqing's reaction speed surpassed Lin Hai's.

Almost every one of Lin Hai's attacks was countered by Cao Ziqing's returning fists.

"This guy's strength is actually increasing!" The more Lin Hai fought, the more shocked he became inside.

A crazy smile emerged on Cao Ziqing's face.

"You don't understand; the Blood Marrow Demon Seed is a magical treasure that allows me to continuously unleash greater power with accelerated blood flow during combat."

Lin Hai felt slightly heavier at heart.

Most of RX Organization's past potions had a diminishing effect over time, causing users to weaken in prolonged battles and unable to maintain their strength.

Earlier, Lin Hai had planned to engage in a prolonged fight, waiting until the potion's effects waned before launching his strongest attack.

But now, things seemed entirely different from before.

"All I know is that all drugs are like special stimulants; they can't last forever!"

In the midst of speaking, they engaged once more.

Fist struck against fist, knee collided with kicking legs, producing a crisp sound that made one's scalp tingle, leaving a mess in their wake.

The clothing on Lin Hai's arm kept tearing apart into shreds under the immense impact.

Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, but Lin Hai didn't bother to wipe it as he immediately countered Cao Ziqing's sharp claws.

Cao Ziqing looked no better, with a bruised and swollen face. Sometimes he attacked, only to be driven back by Lin Hai's terrifying moves.

"Damn it, how can you be so strong?"

Cao Ziqing's patience gradually began to wear thin, releasing a roar almost like a beast's.

"Because you will always be a weakling before me, only temporarily enhancing your strength with drugs."

Lin Hai raised his hand again, executing Po Jun and Seven Kills Fist successively.

Supported by the special physique of the Human King Tribulation Body, Po Jun and Seven Kills Fist unleashed their true power.

Bang—

Cao Ziqing spat a mouthful of blood, retreating continuously for over a dozen steps, losing his balance. Even the third eye on his forehead was so shaken by the immense force that it bled a trickle.

"How did you suddenly become so strong?" He asked, eyes wide with horror.

"Because I rose step by step through my own strength, while individuals like you only know how to rely on petty tricks."

Lin Hai said, attacking once more.

He didn't want someone like Cao Ziqing to remain alive.

Someone who would go to such great lengths to enhance his power, turning himself into a half-man half-ghost, would go to any insane lengths for his goals.

This kind of person must not be left alive.

Bam—

Another loud explosion.

Cao Ziqing let out a series of enraged roars, his sharp claws tearing into Lin Hai's chest, leaving five ferocious bloodstains.

At the same time, his heart was struck by Lin Hai's Seven Kills, a mouthful of blood sprayed out, mixed with fragments of his shattered organs, as he flew backward, slamming into a van, leaving a massive human-shaped dent.

"Impossible! I've already reached Legendary level strength, and the intensity of battle increased my power by a third, so why can't I defeat you?" Cao Ziqing roared.

Lin Hai's arm already trembled uncontrollably.

The previous two full-powered Seven Kills Fists had even pushed Lin Hai's Legendary-level bones to their limit.

But the effect was evidently quite good; at least Cao Ziqing couldn't withstand such attacks.

"You merely enhanced yourself with drugs, reaching Legendary-level strength and reaction speed, but your heart's strength and realm are still lacking."

With the earlier punch, Lin Hai realized that the will to protect his loved ones allowed his Gang Qi to unleash at one hundred and twenty percent.

This was the manifestation of the heart's power that Ghost Master had spoken of.

Legendary level is not just about surpassing in strength and speed, it's truly about surpassing the mind.

Even though his body felt slightly uncomfortable, Lin Hai's aura and state was continuously rising.

At this moment, as he stood there, an invisible aura like that of a supreme master formed, compelling respect with just a glance.

"Impossible, how can you be at Legendary level? I've investigated you, even your senior brother King Yan couldn't have reached Legendary level!" Cao Ziqing looked at Lin Hai's calm yet terrifying gaze, finally beginning to panic inside.

Especially since the detailed information he had about Lin Hai had already subconsciously pegged Lin Hai's combat strength at a certain level.

The current stark contrast made him mentally incapable of accepting the truth.

"RX's intelligence is always inaccurate." Lin Hai casually chuckled, a tone of disdain for RX evident.

Meanwhile, inside the van, Mengru's breathing drew Cao Ziqing's attention.

A sinister look appeared on his face, and he suddenly punched backward, piercing through the van's metal shell, reaching his sharp claws inside.

"Even if I die today, I'll make sure you suffer for life."

Cao Ziqing laughed madly, ready to abandon all limits, intending to despicably kill Lin Mengru first.

"How dare you!"

Lin Hai roared in anger, charging with speed beyond his usual twelvefold.

Mengru must not die!

The full burst of Legendary-level speed was frightening.

In almost a blink, Lin Hai had closed the dozens of meters distance.

Cao Ziqing withdrew his claw from the van, aiming it at the just-arrived Lin Hai's face.

"Haha, you fell into my trap!"

The opponent let out a delighted laugh. The claw that could tear through the van's metal would surely deal devastating damage to even a Legendary level if it hit the head.

"You're celebrating too soon."

Lin Hai's voice was as cold as ice, his eyes emit icy light, not bothering to defend against the descending claw. His left fist Po Jun, right fist Seven Kills, struck fiercely at the two deadly spots—Cao Ziqing's throat and heart.

"You..."

Cao Ziqing never expected Lin Hai to disregard his own life.

Bam—

He instinctively retracted his claw to defend, but it was all too late.

A mouthful of blood spewed out, accompanied by the sound of his throat shattering.

"When protecting my loved ones, I never fear life or death. Your claws might disfigure me, but I can take your life. Death is no longer an obstacle to my heart!"

Lin Hai finished each word, and aimed a powerful punch right at the temporarily defenseless head of Cao Ziqing.

The other showed extreme terror in his eyes as he raised his hand in an attempt to block: "No, no!"
