Chapter 292
Shui Chun’s palm attack was like pouring a basin of water out, but the power contained in the water could move a stone mountain.
All of the spectators were in the Reaching Heaven State. Otherwise, they would have had to stay hundreds of feet away to be safe.
Jiang Chen was very calm when the palm attack arrived in front of him, simply drawing out his knife with his right hand.
The glint of the black knife blinded the audience briefly. As the knife struck, they only heard a low, rapid sound, like the splash of water.
The splashed water looked like tiny steel balls. The spectators had to retreat from where they were standing.
“Nothing happened to him?”
No one was surprised at the power contained in Shui Chun’s palm attack, but Jiang Chen was still holding his knife and standing in the same spot. The hand holding his knife was still strong and firm.
“What?”
Shui Chun was shocked. He hurried to jump away to dodge the sword attack.
“Now, do you think you could be killed by me?”
Jiang Chen swirled his wrist and elegantly held the Red Cloud Sword close to his back.
“You!”
Shui Chun was about to say something when he found a light wound on his arm.
A powerful sword attack!
Shui Chun’s heart sank. He had dodged the blade, but he had been wounded by the energy of the sword.
By that point, he believed it was true that the Hero Palace had talked to Jiang Chen.
“You’re really something, but the Hero Palace only talked to you because they had already talked to my father.”
Shui Chun wiped the blood off his arm and said arrogantly, “If I hold back and you make an all-out attack, you might be able to defeat me.”
“You mean you only suffered the loss because I exerted a killing movement and you only exerted an average one?” said Jiang Chen.
“You know it better than anyone else. You’d better keep in mind that I could kill you with a wave of my hand if I tried my best!” Shui Chun swung his arm angrily.
Jiang Chen smiled and said, “Ridiculous. So even if you lose, you’ll use the same excuse.”
“Huh!”
Shui Chun didn’t argue, thinking it couldn’t possibly happen, but the spectators started to discuss it.
Jiang Chen was a swordsman, while Shui Chun attacked with his palms.
These were personal choices. It was hard to say which one of them was at a disadvantage, but if they could only defeat their rival, not kill, what Shui Chun had said did make sense.
“So, I have to do this to make you recognize your weakness.”
Jiang Chen put his Red Cloud Sword away and drew out the black knife again.
He held it with the blade’s edge inward and the handle facing outward to make it a reverse-blade knife.
The black knife was as curved as a sword, so it was possible for him to do it.
“Now, try my attack!”
“The Rainbow Sword Method: Three Movements in One!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he flew over like the wind. He arrived in front of Shui Chun instantly, and the power of the sword movement erupted right away.
Shui Chun felt dizzy. He was surprised, intending to force Jiang Chen to retreat with his palm attack.
However, Jiang Chen’s black knife was moving so fast that it had already struck down when Shui Chun had just raised his arms.
Shui Chun felt a heavy blow on his arms.
Fortunately, it was only the handle of the knife. Except for the pain, everything else was fine, but Jiang Chen had proven how ignorant he had been.
“Flying Currents and Angry Wave…”
Shui Chun was enraged. When he was about to throw his palms out, the skin of his neck was scratched. He felt a hot pain, not able to even breathe.
“I told you, Three Movements in One. The last movement could have killed you,” said Jiang Chen.
Since he had reversed the way he held his knife, it had only left a red mark on Shui Chun’s neck.
If it had been the edge that had caught him, he would have been bleeding.
When the spectators realized what had happened, they were all shocked.
The reversed knife wasn’t sharp. Jiang Chen couldn’t exert a killing movement with it, and it had weakened the power of his sword method, but it could still kill Shui Chun?
“You are dead,” said Jiang Chen coldly.
This was an unacceptable result for Shui Chun. His expression changed comically.
“You think it’s over? How naive!”
