Chapter 140: Eyes Across the Mountain!

Liu Xiaotian guessed that, given Xiezi's nature, he would definitely not go all-out at the very start.

He would likely first probe, while seeking a chance to take hostage—either himself or anyone else he could get close to.

Naturally, the best target would be someone with a gun, giving him more leverage.

And Liu Xiaotian's reason for choosing to block outright despite being able to dodge was also to probe—he wanted to test Xiezi's strength.

Even if he wouldn't use full force, he wouldn't just give a playful slap, would he?

"Bang!"

After a muffled thud, Liu Xiaotian immediately stepped back another step, putting a safe distance between himself and Xiezi.

Is the fractured rib displaced? Just straighten it back and it's fine, right?

In one, at a glance, `nothing, one mistaken version%!'"

Moreover, his current injury is no less severe than being hit by two bullets in non-vital areas.

Step forward, throw a punch, follow up, continuous attacks……

Xiezi: ……

About another half hour passed, and the Warrior School personnel finally found this place. At the same time, almost none of Xiezi's henchmen managed to escape—aside from those killed on the spot, the rest were all taken alive.

As for why he no longer looked for a chance to escape,

Although he knew Xiezi wasn't using full force, Liu Xiaotian could still tell that Xiezi's strength when he struck was far inferior to Tang Chengfeng's.

What else could he say? Speaking boldly, this is just "the victor wins, the loser loses"; speaking bitterly, this is just falling into others' hands—life and death are no longer in his own control.

First, the Warrior School gave him very "high-level treatment": besides full-body restraints, he also got a room comparable to a safe house.

But Liu Xiaotian, who was already prepared, had no intention whatsoever of giving him such an opportunity.

With such injuries, if it were someone in poorer health, they'd at least have to lie in the ICU for over half a month, depending on how timely the rescue is.

Liu Xiaotian's beating was roughly equivalent to taking away half his life; right now he's still lying on the ground in a semi-conscious state.

Moreover, it was still the kind of all-out storm-like attack right from the start.

Not to mention his current state with broken ribs; even under normal conditions, he could never be a match for Liu Xiaotian.

Besides that, there's nothing else particularly special.

Even if he went all out, Liu Xiaotian is confident he can knock him down within thirty seconds.

The only difference from the "script" is that Xiezi, who should have been able to escape despite his injuries, was also left here.

Besides recording a point on his transcript, he was also given an extra military sword as a reward.

He Chen Guang also knew Liu Xiaotian was right, but seeing his enemy right before him yet unable to take revenge, a faint red flickered in the depths of his eyes.

He was probing, and Xiezi was likewise probing, and he quickly realized that this time he had run into trouble.

A two-minute continuous assault had once left even a normal Tang Chengfeng only able to block, unable to strike back—let alone the injured Xiezi. As Liu Xiaotian lifted his leg and lashed out with a low sweep, Xiezi, whose knees had been kicked dozens of times, could no longer support his body and collapsed with a "thud."

Just this brief encounter, Xiezi abandoned the plan to seek an opportunity from Liu Xiaotian and instead turned his gaze to the nearest person—Li Erniu, who kept his rifle aimed at him.

No vacation, no victory banquet or dance; two hours after returning to the Warrior School, training resumed.

The probing was over; next up was Liu Xiaotian's "performance time." Cha Cai, formerly He Chen Guang's opponent and now his friend, likewise knew about He Chen Guang's father, but he also knew that now was absolutely not the time for them to dispose of Xiezi as they pleased.

Liu Xiaotian's sudden assault caught Xiezi off guard, leaving him only able to defend passively.

Three ribs were broken in succession, four teeth knocked out—including a front tooth; the left forearm was cracked, the left ankle fractured, and both eardrums perforated……

As for the Action Team, overall they did complete the mission, but the credit almost entirely belongs to one person.

"No way!" Liu Xiaotian seemed to know what he was about to say, gave him no chance to speak, and flatly refused.

Besides being sufficiently sharp and perfectly shaped, what he liked most was the sword's color.

At least, that's how it is in his current condition.

Regarding this, Liu Xiaotian was somewhat dissatisfied.

Immediately, he stepped forward and quietly urged He Chen Guang: "He Chen Guang, rest assured, Xiezi will eventually be sent back to us; when that happens, I guarantee I'll leave this opportunity for you!"

As for anesthetic, it's even less needed, since it would hinder wound healing.

Such a military sword is absolutely an ideal weapon for ambushes and sneak attacks.

He Chen Guang, who had been standing aside watching, suddenly stepped forward and said in a low voice to Liu Xiaotian:

But Xiezi did not receive such treatment.

Because what Liu Xiaotian aimed at was not the vital spots Xiezi instinctively defended, but rather the muscle joints under the arms, behind the knees, etc.

He Chen Guang glanced at Liu Xiaotian, then at Cha Cai, and finally slowly released his finger that had been pressed tight against the trigger.

But that had no effect.

Then he stood up, looked solemnly at He Chen Guang and lowered his voice: "Chen Guang, I know what you want to do, but now isn't the time—this isn't just us few; if you really did that, the Warrior School side would definitely not let it slide!"

Pitch black all over, yet it doesn't affect its sharpness in the slightest.

And Liu Xiaotian once again pressed a single knee onto his chest and abdomen, flung open his arms, and without a word delivered a flurry of slaps left and right that made Xiezi see stars and rendered him unable to see anything clearly.

Believe me, whatever you want to do will surely have a chance!"

While guaranteeing that outsiders cannot harm him, it also absolutely ensures he cannot leave without permission.

The bone fragments didn't injure any organs, so no doctor is needed! This is the "treatment plan" given by the Chief Instructor who examined Xiezi after he was brought back to the Warrior School and saw the results.

Compared to any merits, Liu Xiaotian actually prefers that military sword.

Although Liu Xiaotian stressed that the success was due to everyone's joint effort, the strict foreign instructors still unanimously agreed that this was Liu Xiaotian's achievement!

"Xiaotian, let me……"

Damn, even just being rewarded with a piece of elbow would stave off hunger for a while—it's been half a day, I haven't eaten lunch, and now I have to do over two hours of physical training? Just as the twenty-plus soldiers of the Action Team began gathering on the drill field, nobody noticed that in the window of the top-floor attic of a three-story building about four hundred meters from where they assembled, a pair of eyes was staring at them.

To be precise, they were staring at Liu Xiaotian.

That person's hand held a satellite phone.

"Sorry, I failed—Xiezi was caught; alright, I'll figure something out, and as for that Eastern soldier, I'll figure out how to get rid of him……"
