Chapter 137: Sudden Murder
Loading...
Qin Anyi's sudden burst of action was extremely abrupt. However, it had to be said that Khun Sa was indeed a genius boxer, and having been tempered by life-and-death struggles, his reaction speed was remarkably fast. The moment Qin Anyi closed in on him, Khun Sa instinctively took half a step back while fiercely lashing out a right kick toward Qin Anyi! Khun Sa was fully confident that with this single kick, even the most robust military horse would be killed instantly, let alone a mere human. Furthermore, if the opponent chose to evade, he could immediately retreat behind his subordinates, and at that moment, his men's gunfire would riddle this audacious fellow with bullets like a hornet's nest.
Although Khun Sa was confident he could take down this strange young man even in a one-on-one fight, now that he had attained a position of authority, he naturally possessed the dignity of a superior. He genuinely did not want to expend extra effort on things his subordinates could handle, especially when it involved risking his life.
The speed of Qin Anyi's sudden assault was astonishingly fast, startling even Khun Sa. This speed alone was enough to prove that the person launching the sneak attack was extremely formidable. If it had been a few years ago, Khun Sa would have definitely handled it himself. But times had changed; his status was no longer ordinary. A few years ago, he still needed to risk his life to fight for position, but now that he had finally carved out a place for himself, he was naturally unwilling to put himself in danger again.
The more a person owned, the more they feared losing it, and the more bound their actions became—far less courageous and forward-moving than when they had nothing.
Yet, that reflexive retreat after the kick completely sealed Khun Sa's fate. Very often, the choices we make out of subconscious self-preservation end up causing us to lose even more!
Facing the powerful and heavy whip kick, Qin Anyi neither chose to block nor evade. He charged straight ahead without the slightest hesitation, letting Khun Sa's whip kick slam viciously into his side waist! At the same time, Khun Sa noticed that Qin Anyi's body seemed to vibrate violently for a split second upon impact, and then, completely unaffected, he closed the distance to just a few tens of centimeters away from him.
*How is this possible?!*
Khun Sa's pupils constricted violently. That kick had landed squarely on the opponent's body without even causing the slightest tilt, while his own body had already begun retreating the moment the kick was unleashed. Facing Qin Anyi's entirely unexpected charge, Khun Sa could no longer control his body to counterattack!
After taking Khun Sa's kick head-on, Qin Anyi's right hand lashed out like lightning, effortlessly grasping Khun Sa's throat. Meeting Khun Sa's wide-eyed, incredulous gaze, without even giving him a chance to speak, Qin Anyi mercilessly crushed Khun Sa's larynx with a firm grip!
Khun Sa's entire body suffered a series of violent convulsions before collapsing limply to the ground... Right up until his death, his face wore a heavy expression of absolute disbelief.
*Dead? Just like that? I'm actually dead? I just became the second-in-command of the Blood Flag... There is still a wonderful life waiting for me to enjoy... Why did I die here?*
In the final moments before death, Khun Sa felt no physical pain, nor any extraneous thoughts. His mind went completely blank, perpetually repeating these questions he could no longer comprehend... Then... his vision gradually blurred... and he lost consciousness.
The surroundings instantly plunged into a dead silence! Everyone unconsciously stopped breathing. Whether it was the boxers from Su Pan's village, the boxers from Basong's village, or the twenty subordinates brought by Khun Sa, they all stared blankly at Khun Sa's limp corpse on the ground. Even though it had happened right before their very eyes, these people still could not snap out of it; they felt as if time had slowed down by half a beat, and no one had any psychological preparation to face this scene.
However, Qin Anyi did not accompany them in their stupor. Having cleanly disposed of Khun Sa, Qin Anyi immediately charged toward the four thugs armed with AK assault rifles!
Before taking action, he had already made meticulous calculations in his brain. According to his calculations, the true combat effectiveness of the twenty-odd men brought by Khun Sa was inferior even to the boxers standing behind Su Pan! Aside from the four assault rifles that could pose a lethal threat to him, those outdated homemade guns were simply no problem for Qin Anyi at all. Both their shooting accuracy and muzzle velocity fell far short of real firearms! Moreover, due to their long-term reliance on firearms, these people had developed a dependency on guns. Whenever they encountered any unexpected situation, they would instinctively want to use firearms to solve the problem, meaning their hand-to-hand combat skills had undoubtedly long grown rusty.
Once the distance between two opponents closed to within three meters, the utility of firearms was drastically diminished—they were not even as useful as bare fists!
What Qin Anyi seized upon was precisely this point! A surprise attack, taking a kick from Khun Sa head-on, and instantly executing a whole-body vibration to dissipate the force based on calculated data—he successfully took down Khun Sa at the cost of negligible sacrifice! Then, without a moment's pause, he charged toward the four thugs holding the rifles.
Throughout the process, his own speed, Khun Sa's possible counterattacks, the proper ways to respond, and the reactions of everyone around him had all been accurately calculated by Qin Anyi! From killing Khun Sa to initiating the attack on the first rifle-wielding thug, less than two full seconds had elapsed!
It wasn't until Qin Anyi's fist was right beneath his throat that the attacked thug finally snapped back to his senses with goosebumps rising all over his skin. Unfortunately... it was already too late!
With a single punch, he caved the thug's larynx deep into his neck. Without paying attention to the thug clutching his throat with both hands as he collapsed to the ground in convulsions, Qin Anyi directly pivoted and delivered a spinning heel kick, slamming his heel viciously into another thug's temple!
The thug who took the kick to the temple let out a shrill, miserable scream. That shriek completely jolted the surrounding people out of their daze.
Basong's reaction was extremely fast. Taking a deep breath, he directly ordered all the boxers under his command to attack Su Pan's boxers! The development of events was completely beyond his expectations, but since Khun Sa had been killed by Qin Anyi, this matter would inevitably implicate his village no matter what. Therefore, he had no choice but to survive the immediate crisis first before considering other options...
Meanwhile, while those people were recovering their senses, Qin Anyi continuously took down the remaining two rifle-wielding thugs as well. In less than ten seconds, he had killed five people in a row!
And this was... Qin Anyi's very first time killing someone!
The remaining dozen or so thugs had already started shouting, aiming their homemade guns at Qin Anyi. The faster ones even began pulling the triggers, but then they remembered they hadn't had time to chamber their rounds. Originally thinking they were just coming out to make a show of force, these people never expected that there would actually be idiots daring to fight back against them.
Yet, this brief chaos gave Qin Anyi more than enough time. Following the routes, combat styles, and applied force calculated by his brain, Qin Anyi began harvesting lives with expressionless, machine-like precision!
