Chapter 18 Don’t Talk Too Early
The fat man naturally didn't take Jiang Xuan's words to heart. He shook his belly, which had become a little fatter, and said, "Brother Jiang, it's too early to brag. If I hadn't left that day for something, would you be standing in front of me like this, safe and sound, and bragging like this?"

"Leaving for something?" Jiang Xuan found the fat man's words very funny. He mocked the fat man, "The speed at which you ran away that day was probably even faster than the speed at which you chased me today. You call that leaving for something?"

The fat man waved his hand: "I won't argue with you about these things, but I am curious, with your strength of the initial stage of the heavenly rank, how did you escape from the thin man's hands?"

Jiang Xuan looked at the fat man meaningfully: "I escape? Why not the thin guy?"

"Oh, this is interesting. That skinny guy is really useless. A mid-level Heavenly Rank warrior actually managed to escape from a low-level Heavenly Rank brat. If I tell anyone about this, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at for a while."

The fat man cursed the thin man inwardly. If the thin man hadn't escaped, why would he have to personally deal with Jiang Xuan today? Thinking of this, the fat man asked again: "Where did he escape to?"

"Skinny guy?" Jiang Xuan changed to a more comfortable standing position and said with disdain, "I killed him."

"Killed by you, just you?" The fat man felt that Jiang Xuan had been playing tricks in his words, and he was a little impatient: "With your speed, if you said that you took advantage of the thin man's carelessness and let you escape, I would still believe it. But if you said that the thin man was killed by you..."

The fat man was halfway through his words when he looked at Jiang Xuan with a strange look in his eyes.

The ochre cloth robe Jiang Xuan was wearing was so familiar, it was clearly the one the thin man wore!

However, this ochre cloth robe was not as big on Jiang Xuan as it was on the thin man.

Seeing the fat man looking at his ochre robe with an expression of disbelief, Jiang Xuan pointed to the hole in the robe and said, "The gun went in from here..." He turned around and pointed to a hole of almost the same size on his back, "And came out from here..."

After saying that, Jiang Xuan shrugged and made an attitude of "that's it".

"Present your death!" The fat man was furious and rushed towards Jiang Xuan with a knife in hand.

Although the fat man's attack was much faster than before, it was obviously slower than the speed of the thin man after he used the Chi Tan sword technique.

The butt of the spear never left the ground, and the fat man's multiple attacks were all calmly blocked by the black spear in Jiang Xuan's hand.

Seeing that his attack was ineffective, the fat man stepped back slightly, changing from standing upright with his sword held high to bending over with his sword held high. Although his posture seemed a little strange, it showed a sense of strength.

"I'm the only one who can bully skinny people, how dare you!"

The fat man shouted, bent down, took a step, and leaped into the air. His whole body was like a reverse bow, full of power. He raised his knife and slashed at Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan secretly thought that this was not good. If he was hit by such a force visible to the naked eye, the consequences would be unimaginable.

While thinking, Jiang Xuan was about to dodge.

At this moment, the fat man who was leaping in the air shouted again: "Let me show you the unique sword technique of Fuzhou Martial Arts School - 'Jingzhe Sword'!"

As soon as the fat man finished speaking, his body fell down suddenly like a heavy object at an extremely fast speed!

"It's too fast, it's too late to drop the gun!" Jiang Xuan was shocked and had to raise the gun with both hands to block the fat man's Jingzhe knife with all his strength.

"clang!"

"Puff!" The fat man's attack was so powerful that it hit the spear that Jiang Xuan was holding with both hands.

However, after the sword and spear collided, the dagger's forward momentum did not stop, and continued to hit Jiang Xuan's chest with the spear. Jiang Xuan was then hit by his own spear, fell heavily to the ground, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

The fat man also fell heavily to the ground, but his condition was much better than Jiang Xuan's. Obviously, the Jingzhe Knife focused on strength, and when falling, it used momentum to accelerate. The disadvantage was that even the person using the knife would lose balance.

Both Jiang Xuan and the fat man found it difficult to launch a second attack immediately, but the fat man was less affected and stood up first, ready to attack Jiang Xuan.

Jiang Xuan endured the pain in his chest, rolled to the side, avoided the fat man's attack, and then quickly stood up with the help of his spear.

After the previous attack, Jiang Xuan realized that compared with the thin man before, the fat man's advantage was not speed, but strength.

In addition, the Jingzhe Sword can obviously better bring out the strength advantage of the warrior. In this way, the fat man who uses the Jingzhe Sword will be very terrifying.

Jiang Xuan was a little worried at this moment, wondering if this fat man also knew the Chi Tan sword technique. If so, coupled with the domineering power of the Jing Zhe sword, he was afraid that when this fat man knew he was no match for him, he would use the Chi Tan sword technique to fight him in a fight that would result in both of them suffering losses.

The fat man moved his arms. It was obvious that even he himself could not digest the impact of the previous blow.

Jiang Xuan judged from the fat man's performance that the advantage of the Jingzhe Knife is also its disadvantage: when using a powerful attack that far exceeds one's ability to withstand, the hands holding the knife will also be injured because they cannot withstand the impact.

With a thought, Jiang Xuan had a plan to deal with it: give up the stabbing, and instead use sweeping moves that can better exert the power of the black rhino to fight the fat man head-on, thereby increasing the burden on the fat man's arms.

"This Jingzhe Knife is indeed powerful, but I'm afraid that move just now can't be used too often, right?"

Jiang Xuan spoke, firstly to buy himself some breathing time, and secondly to use some provocation to lure the fat man into using the same move more often.

Although the fat man's previous move caused Jiang Xuan a lot of pain, Jiang Xuan had already seen it once and was on guard. If the fat man used it again, it would cause him more harm.

The fat man was still angry and shouted, "Very good, since you want to suffer more, I will play with you!"

Seeing that the fat man was hooked, Jiang Xuan didn't show it on his face, but he was happy in his heart.

"Da!" The fat man bent down and stepped on the ground again, and it was obvious that this time the force of his step was greater.

The next moment, the fat man appeared in mid-air again, knife raised, and chopped down. The whole process was extremely fast.

Almost at the same time as the fat man jumped into the air, Jiang Xuan also jumped up. When the two were almost at the same height, Jiang Xuan twisted the strength of his waist and swept out with all his strength. The spear drew a beautiful black arc in the air.

"Dang!" A huge sound of metal clashing was heard, followed by two figures flying backwards in two directions and crashing heavily to the ground.

However, this time, Jiang Xuan was affected far less than the fat man.

Jiang Xuan took a deep breath, got up from the ground, and looked at the fat man in the distance. The dagger in the fat man's hand had slipped out of his hand and fell beside a bush not far from the fat man. Looking closely at the fat man's arms, blood had stained his sleeves red.

At this moment, the fat man had completely lost his ability to fight. He fumbled in his arms with trembling hands, not knowing what he was looking for.
