Ruthlessly Beating Athena

Athena stared at Xiao Feng in astonishment. "Damn, you're pointing a gun at my head right now, and yet you still dare to say you'll be rude to me? What kind of power do you possess to be so arrogantly insolent? Come on, make a move—let me see just how you intend to disrespect me. Should I strip off my clothes and see if you still dare?"

Athena's words left Xiao Feng somewhat embarrassed. Yet, as he looked at her, he couldn't help but admire her. After all, surrounded by so many warriors, threatened by an eighth-level psychic and a mechanical soldier, she remained calm and composed, handling the situation with remarkable poise. Such a woman was truly admirable.

Xiao Feng chuckled and said, "Don't overreact. The bigger your reaction, the more it reveals your guilt and fear."

Athena looked at Xiao Feng with a cold, disdainful smile. "I'm not guilty; I simply despise trash like you. Understand?"

Xiao Feng hated being looked down upon above all else. His smile vanished entirely, eyes blazing as he glared at Athena. "You called us trash?"

Athena pressed the muzzle of her gun against his forehead. "You are trash, and I'm here to deal with trash like you."

Xiao Feng sneered coldly, "If you're so confident, aren't you afraid that we trash will take you down?"

"Haha, do you think I'm some fool like Ares? Believe it or not, I could eliminate all of you in five seconds flat."

Xiao Feng was somewhat taken aback by the confidence shining in Athena's eyes. If she could say such things, perhaps she truly could back them up. But he wasn't about to be intimidated by mere words. His psychic powers flared, firmly gripping Athena's fingers. "Since you're a woman, I'll go easy on you."

With a sudden flash, Xiao Feng moved.

At that moment, Athena instinctively pulled the trigger, only to find her gun's trigger utterly unresponsive.

In that fleeting hesitation, Xiao Feng lowered his body swiftly, circled behind her, back facing her. Through his psychic perception, he sensed every movement of Athena's, crystal clear—no need to look.

Pressing his right hand hard against her neck, Xiao Feng bent forward and executed a precise shoulder throw, hurling Athena to the ground.

Athena hadn't anticipated such speed and power. It felt as if her body had become weightless, then she slammed heavily onto the concrete.

Had she not provoked Xiao Feng's wrath, he might have shown her some courtesy. But her arrogant disregard sealed her fate—Xiao Feng was determined to punish her severely.

With a powerful stride, he approached the struggling Athena and landed a vicious punch on her delicate profile. Bang!

Athena's head smashed against the cement.

Xiao Feng showed no mercy. Watching him brutalize such a beautiful woman unsettled the onlookers; many might never encounter a woman like her in their lives, let alone witness her being beaten so harshly.

Yet Xiao Feng knew well the danger Athena posed—as one of the Seven Gods, her threat was formidable.

The blow nearly knocked Athena unconscious, a rarity for her. Anger flared within as Xiao Feng struck again, and suddenly her body emitted an intense electric glow. A buzzing surge struck Xiao Feng's chest.

None expected Athena to unleash such a potent electric current, far stronger than Xiao Feng's own. It was more fitting to describe it as a bolt of lightning.

The powerful surge flung Xiao Feng high into the air. Had he not undergone an electric shock evolution, he would have been electrocuted to death. Instead, he only felt slight discomfort, brow furrowed in disbelief that Athena's electricity surpassed his own.

With a heavy thud, Xiao Feng crashed to the ground.

Seeing this, Tǔgǒu locked onto Athena with his weapon's targeting system and cursed, "Die!"

But Xiao Feng struggled to his feet, shouting, "No!"

Tǔgǒu immediately ceased fire, asking anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Frowning, Xiao Feng said, "Order everyone to retreat—including Rush and you. I have a very bad feeling. That woman's destructive power is immense. If she unleashes that electric storm again, countless brothers will die. You all retreat quickly; leave me to handle her alone."

Tǔgǒu glanced at Athena, standing proudly despite the bruises on her face, then shouted, "Everyone retreat!"

Rush looked at Xiao Feng, disheveled and weary. "Are you sure?"

"Yes, hurry up. Athena is extremely dangerous," Xiao Feng replied, stretching his sore body from the fall as he slowly advanced toward Athena.

Athena, surprised he was still standing, said, "You're still alive?"

Xiao Feng chuckled dryly. "Sorry to disappoint. I'm very much alive."

"What? You took that massive electric shock and you're unharmed? How? Do you have electric powers too?"

"Seems your temple's research on me is far too shallow. You don't even know how many powers I have before coming to kill me. Such ignorance."

Athena sneered. "Ignorant? Let me show you true ignorance. If that electricity didn't harm you, then see if you can withstand my full-power electric blast."

She raised both hands to the sky.

At that moment, Xiao Feng's first thought wasn't to dodge but to glance around, confirming all his comrades had retreated before facing her calmly.

All the watching warriors stepped back nearly a hundred meters, observing from afar the duel of these two powerful psychics. Among them were Rice, Old White, Alice, and Kelly, all watching intently, fully trusting Xiao Feng's judgment. If such electric currents hit them, they'd be reduced to ashes instantly. Besides Xiao Feng, only Kelly could endure such shocks, and she frowned, contemplating ways to neutralize this formidable member of the Seven Gods.

As Athena raised her hands skyward, Xiao Feng accelerated, still about ten meters away—already enough distance for Athena to unleash her power.

With a sharp cry, "Die!" Athena unleashed a dense barrage of electric sparks within a ten-meter radius.

As Xiao Feng charged into the zone, his body was struck repeatedly by the electric bursts. Though numbness escaped him, the force of the jolts inflicted immense pain.

After several hits, Xiao Feng surged forward, reaching Athena and delivering another blow to her cheek.

Yet another thick electric bolt blasted out, sending Xiao Feng flying back.

Onlookers were astonished; in mere seconds, Xiao Feng was knocked to the ground again. Cursing under his breath, "Damn it, can't even get close," he rolled over and rose once more.

He charged at Athena again, faster this time—not just powered by his physical strength but propelled by his psychic force from behind. Boosted by this formidable power, his speed became astonishing.

A blur followed his rapid advance.

Startled, Athena unleashed another electric storm, attempting once more to restrain his velocity.

From afar, everyone watched in awe, hoping Xiao Feng would again astonish them.

He did not disappoint.

Like a bullet, Xiao Feng blasted through Athena's electric rain.

Though struck by the electricity again, his incredible momentum allowed him to dodge the fiercest currents.

With cold, murderous intent gleaming in his eyes, Xiao Feng closed in once more, clenching his fists to strike Athena's face again.
