Chapter 75. No mercy.

"You think you're the only one with speed?" Li Chen growled. "Let's see how you like this!"

His words shocked everyone. Since the battle began, Li Chen had struggled to keep up with Li Guo's agility. What was he boasting about now?

Even Li Guo paused, momentarily surprised. Then, she let out an irritating giggle, swiftly nocking another arrow and aiming it directly at Li Chen.

But then, Li Chen moved. He shot towards Li Guo with a speed so incredible, it might have surpassed even hers.

Shock paralyzed Li Guo. Before she could even react, Li Chen stood before her. A fist, aimed directly at her face, stopped just a hair's breadth away. The force of the stopped blow sent a rush of wind across her face, whipping her hair around her.

Looking up, Li Guo saw the fierce scowl etched on Li Chen's face. The force of the wind from that near miss was enough to tell her everything – had that punch connected, she would be dead.
