One More

A headless body dropped to the ground, splashing water everywhere. There was still a puzzled expression on the now-severed head of Shao Yi. 

He was thinking, "Didn't the kid already let his guard down? How was he able to react in time?" 

He was thinking, "Why would a sword shoot out of a person's chest?" 

He was thinking, "The kid was completely unable to resist even that one attack of mine, so why was I sent flying?" 

Thump.

Water splashed as the head bobbed in the puddle.

Xu Xiaoshou clenched the muscles in his chest as he rose from the ground. He pulled the sword out of his chest and took a look at the hole there, which almost went straight through him to his back. 

"Sh**, this hurts…"

Innate Level Physique, Sharpness, spiritual source shielding. All three of these added together, and still that man had been able to punch a hole right through him.
