Chapter 1401: Strength and Speed

Gravel fell from the hole in the wall. Bark was pierced through the heart by Su Xiao's sword, but he was baring his full mouth of steel teeth and smiling.

Su Xiao held the hilt of Checking Zhan Long Shan with both hands and pressed the long sword down, but the sword in his hand was firmly fixed. Comparing strength with this monster-like logging man Bark was not wise.

Bark's two short axes formed a swastika shape to jam Checking Zhan Long Shan. Drops of blood splashed from Bark's chest. His feet exerted force, his brows stood up, and he twisted his body sideways, intending to break the Checking Zhan Long Shan in his body.

"Hmph..."

Bark groaned. He still had his back to Su Xiao. The legendary quality, Checking Zhan Long Shan reinforced to +13, simply couldn't be broken by Bark's strength.

Bark was also ruthless enough. After being pierced through the heart, he didn't think about breaking free as soon as possible, but wanted to find a way to break the enemy's weapon.

A whimpering whistle came from behind Bark. Although Bark couldn't see the situation behind him, the two short axes in his hands crossed and released Checking Zhan Long Shan.

The Wood Spirit clung to Su Xiao's calf. His body leaned low, and he kicked sideways toward Bark's spine.

Su Xiao's leg turned into a black afterimage, kicking straight onto Bark's spine.

Dong!

The impact spread to the surroundings, a large number of wooden furniture fell apart, and the leather sofa was torn with large cracks by the strong wind.

When Su Xiao's right calf hit Bark's spine, he heard a clear crack. Bark's body formed an inverted C-shape, and he flew forward with a swish.

The moment before being kicked away, Bark released the short axe in his left hand, and that large hand reached toward the wooden board hit by the impact in mid-air.

With a loud bang, smoke and dust surged. Bark hit the wall, a large hole appeared on the wall, followed by a muffled sound of hitting metal.

Bark hit through the wall directly, hitting the Wenluo steel plate on the outer layer of the Shengli Gate Fortress, life or death unknown.

Deep in the hole in the wall, a dent appeared on the Wenluo steel plate, and the dent was splashed with blood.

Click, click...

After a burst of chewing sounds, a figure in tattered clothes stood up and walked out of the hole in the wall.

When Bark appeared again, his neck was bent backward abnormally, and blood gushed from the wound on his chest. He just raised his hand to support the back of his head and exerted force in his hand.

After a bone-chilling sound of bone friction, Bark straightened his head, and his entire body began to twist irregularly.

Click, click...

Vertebrae were reset one by one. Bark pressed one nostril with his thumb and exerted force to spray gas. A stream of blood sprayed from the other nostril.

"Pfft."

Spitting out the wood chips in his mouth, the wound on Bark's chest stopped bleeding.

Su Xiao moved his somewhat numb right leg. He stepped down, and the short axe on the ground flew up. The long sword slashed, and the wooden handle of the short axe was cut into three sections. This was an extremely hard wood.

Su Xiao leaped half a meter high, kicked forward with his left foot, and kicked the handleless axe head away.

The axe head whistled and flew out of the room, finally piercing through a distant wooden door, not knowing where it fell. If there was a chance, naturally, he had to destroy the enemy's weapon as soon as possible. Even if he couldn't destroy it completely, he had to throw it to a position where the enemy couldn't get it in a short time.

Bark looked at the broken axe handle on the ground. He rushed toward the desk not far away. There were two short axes under the desk, which were prepared by God's Envoy Dubo Yisi for Bark just in case. He didn't expect to really use them today.

The relationship between Bark and God's Envoy Dubo Yisi was very special. The two were neither superior and subordinate nor master and servant. When Bark was young, he was a soldier of the Sun Kingdom, and the unit he belonged to was similar to a killing unit.

Because of years of killing life, Bark was tired of it. After leaving the unit he belonged to, he was placed in a deep mountain and old forest, logging to pass the leisure time every day. Although boring, it was considered fulfilling.

But good times didn't last long. One morning when Bark woke up, he found blood on his clothes, and three human heads were lined up on the table in his house. He couldn't suppress the killing desire in his heart, or rather, he was addicted to killing.

Murder cases occurred one after another around the mountain area. The Divine Court of the Sun Kingdom naturally wouldn't ignore it. After 1,259 soldiers were killed or injured in that jungle, and it took 29 days, the Divine Court caught Bark. The reason for Bark's arrest was very strange: food without salt was very difficult to eat.

That's right, Bark was arrested voluntarily. The unit he originally belonged to didn't send anyone at all. In the words of his commander, no one could catch Bark in the forest unless that mountain range was blown up.

Bark was tired, so he wanted to die. 57 heavy criminals died in the prison where Bark was held, and after hundreds of sets of heavy shackles were scrapped, Bark's execution day was advanced by two weeks.

Just when Bark was preparing to welcome death, someone came to him and had a long talk with him. The next day, the "Bark" whose tongue was cut off and eyes were blinded was executed.

A month later, a sturdy man appeared behind God's Envoy Dubo Yisi. This sturdy man was very sloppy, often drinking beer while smoking cigars. Strangely, Dubo Yisi, who hated the smell of smoke extremely, never drove Bark out of the office.

Whatever Dubo Yisi ate, Bark followed and ate. Compared with the elegant Dubo Yisi, Bark's eating posture was unbearable to look at. Someone teased Dubo Yisi, saying that the time he spent with his wife might not be as long as the time he spent with this sloppy man. Dubo Yisi just smiled at this. What outsiders didn't know was that Bark had saved Dubo Yisi nine times.

Bang!

Bark kicked the desk to pieces, wooden fragments splashed, and two short axes rotated in mid-air.

Zzz~

Metal wire threads popped out, passed through the wooden fragments, and wrapped toward the two short axes. However, Bark's reaching hand was faster.

Just as Bark's fingertips touched the axe handle, he suddenly turned his head.

Boom!

An explosion appeared in front of Bark. The reason this happened was because a piece of alchemy bomb was pierced by the tip of the Jie Duan Xian.

Bark just stopped, and Su Xiao had already rushed forward.

Clang, clang, clang...

White threads appeared in mid-air, and the wooden fragments in mid-air shattered again.

Bark, whose beard on his face was scorched, reached out with one hand, grabbed a short axe, and leaped backward quickly.

With a crisp clang, the wooden handle of the short axe in Bark's hand broke inch by inch, and the axe head hit the ground, but Bark didn't care at all. He stepped on the ground, shook the axe head on the ground, and bit the axe head.

Bark reached his hand to his lower back, and an axe handle was actually inserted in his lower back. Heaven knows how much this guy loved axes.

The wooden handle entered the slot of the axe head. Bark grabbed the wooden handle, and the tail of the wooden handle smashed toward the wall beside him, solidifying the connection between the axe head and the wooden handle.

Bang!

Large cracks appeared on the wall, a valuable oil painting fell, and two short axes turned in Bark's hands.

"Heh."

Bark smiled at Su Xiao. This was a smile from the heart. Winning a move in the battle with Su Xiao made him very happy.

Su Xiao slashed diagonally with his long sword, and a blade mark appeared on the ground beside him.

"Hahahaha."

Bark laughed even more happily, just like a child weighing over 200 pounds who could chop people into meat paste in an instant.

The battle began. Both sides had no nonsense and rushed straight toward each other.

Metal collision sounds came one after another. Bark's strength was strong, the axe was powerful, Su Xiao's speed was fast, and he could often slash a blood mark on Bark's body.

Don't think Su Xiao's strength was weak, it was just that compared to the monster-like logging man Bark, Su Xiao's strength was relatively weak. The room that looked like it had been crushed by dozens of tanks showed the destructive power of the two. If it weren't for the Wenluo steel layer on the outer layer, the two would have fought out of the fortress long ago. ===== CHAPTER 1402 =====
