Chapter 545 - Freed beast

The shaking body and the menacing blood-red eyes did not resemble a human. His demonic laugh rang out eerily in the night. With a bloodstained face, Xiao Luo looked terrifying.

Seeing that Xiao Luo had turned into this state, even Khun Sa, who had turned into a monster himself, felt a piercing chill run down his spine. He looked slightly in awe and mumbled, "This brat is a little odd!" In the next second, both of his eyes angrily narrowed, and he screamed, "So what? You're about to become a heap of minced meat under my crushing blow!"

His roar echoed throughout the base, and it sounded unearthly and hoarse. The man-beast Khun Sa charged up toward Xiao Luo with enormous hatred.

The punctured wound on his torso and his broken ankle did not seem to affect him at all as his speed was as quick as ever. He charged toward Xiao Luo and intended to take him down.

"Hehe, hehe, hehe…"

With a mirthless laugh, Xiao Luo started to move forward to meet his oncoming opponent. He was not about to dodge or evade Khun Sa's attack. He planned to meet him head-on.

Khun Sa was taken aback by Xiao Luo's course of action, but he smiled with disdain. "Have you finally lost your mind? Can't you tell the difference of power between us? How could you choose the silliest way to face me?" he scowled, then suddenly, "Arrgh!"

Before he could complete what he wanted to say, he gave a long and painful howl instead.

In a blink of an eye, from a distance of a few meters away, Xiao Luo had teleported himself toward Khun Sa with such high speed that the man-beast felt like a train had rammed right into his chest. Khun Sa was proud of the hard qigong skill that made him almost impregnable. He had no fear of ordinary bullets. But Xiao Luo's attack suddenly made him feel like all of his internal organs had churned and disintegrated inside him.

"Urghh!"

He coughed out a mouthful of thick blood as his gigantic body flew backward towards a wall like a cannon bomb. His three-meter tall body rammed through four walls crushing them as if they were pieces of beancurd.

How could this be possible?

Both Xie Long and Ku Lou widened their eyes in amazement. They watched, as the two men with the vast difference in sizes, collided. Their boss, who was the larger man, had flown through those walls. What was going on? What had just happened here?

"Hehe, hehe, hehe…"

Xiao Luo continued to chuckle in that eerie manner as he speedily dashed, like a bolt of black lightning, into the hole where Khun Sa was.

Shortly afterward, a heated battle had begun. The two men fought hard, and their battleground began to shift out of the base. A trail of collapsed buildings dotted the path of their destruction as they fought in the streets of Brule. Their energy forces and battle cries created deafening sounds that could be heard around the entire city as these two sworn enemies hunted each other down. As they fought, the city felt as if it was going through a raging sandstorm.

Xie Long and Ku Lou could not see what was going on, but they could hear the intense battle. The sound coming from the relentless assaults gave them goosebumps. And every time they hear the force of an attack, their hearts leaped.

"Xie Long, where are you going?"

"The situation seems to be against our boss's favor, I…we can't sit here and expect a miracle to happen, we need to do something for our boss…"

Xie Long was very loyal to Khun Sa. He endured the pain from his injury and limped towards a jeep equipped with an L115A3 sniper rifle.

The situation on the ground was as he had expected. After a couple of minutes, the ceiling broke apart as a gigantic being fell from above like a meteorite. The ground trembled. And an enormous hole was created by its landing.

"Boss!"

When they had confirmed that it was Khun Sa, Ku Lou screamed uncontrollably. He was aghast and wondered, had he lost? Khun Sa had turned into such a ferocious monster. And yet he was still defeated?

It was unbelievable and unacceptable!

Their boss's rampages could destroy armored vehicles, so how could he have possibly lost to Xiao Luo?

At that moment, another cold and devilish laugh came from Xiao Luo. Ku Lou stared into the pitch-black hole and found a pair of blood-red eyes staring back at him. They resembled the eyes of a demon and looked extremely scary in the dark.

Covered with blood, Khun Sa got up with much difficulty. He panted as he stared in disbelief at Xiao Luo, who was emerging from the darkness.

How could this be possible?

Wasn't Xiao Luo weaker? How did he become so strong all of a sudden?

Every single pore on Khun Sa was breaking out in an uncontrollable cold sweat as he wondered at the outcome of their epic encounter. The way Xiao Luo had fought him was like a war machine that had gone nuts, attacking with unchecked and irrational violence. Everything Xiao Luo did was out of survival instinct, and he had used his body as his weapon. There were deep lacerations everywhere on Khun Sa's body, and these were all Xiao Luo's work. Xiao Luo had torn his flesh apart, just with his fingers.

Xiao Luo limped slowly, step by step as if he was about to fall anytime. His arms were hanging loosely, and his eyes were still blood-red. His face bore that devilish smile. Xiao Luo was covered with blood as well, and his clothes were badly torn, a reflection of the equally dire straits he was now in.

The sight of him as he emerged from the abyss shook everyone who saw him!

Khun Sa clenched his fists and was prepared for another round of battle. "You little brat!" he roared.

WHOOSH!

Xiao Luo leaped into the sky like a bolt of lightning and crashed down like the almighty Thunder God.

BOOM!

The ground trembled, and the hole where Khun Sa was, had widened twice its size. The intensified pain that the man-beast felt made him howl in pain again while spurting out more blood. Xiao Luo had kicked him down on his chest and then looked down at him with a mocking scowl, further enraging Khun Sa.

Humiliation, fear, anger… such negative emotions began to well up into Khun Sa's head.

Khun Sa no longer had any strength to retaliate, and he laughed in self-mockery. "Did I free this beast from within the little brat unintentionally? You freaking monster!" he lamented.

He would never have believed that this very man before him was Xiao Luo.

In reply, Xiao Luo answered with a strong and heavy stomp.

KABOOM!

The diameter of the hole increased again as rocks flew all over. This last blow caused Khun Sa to return to his original state. His body deflated like a balloon, returning him back into human form.

"Son of a b*tch, go to hell!"

At that moment, Xie Long had climbed into the Jeep and fixed the sights of the L115A3 sniper rifle at Xiao Luo. He grunted with desperation as he fired the shot.

BANG!

The bullet flew out the barrel, and an explosive flame flared as it escaped the muzzle, whizzing its way towards Xiao Luo's head. The piercing sound as the bullet traveled was similar to a beast's scream. A declaration that death was on its way. The menacing sound would give anyone listening goosebumps.

Xiao Luo had his head looking down at Khun Sa, but reacted instinctively and held out an arm to block the L115A3 sniper bullet which could pierce through a dozen centimeters of steel board. He snapped open his palm to stop the speeding bullet, and just like that, it fell onto the ground.

And then, there was silence. Xie Long, Ku Lou, and Khun Sa all gaped as all that registered in their brains was the distinctive sound of a metallic plink-the sound of the bullet as it fell onto the ground. It was a sound that pierced through the souls of the three men who watched, befuddled and in utter disbelief.
