A sense of ominous foreboding rose in Xiao Haishu's heart. If Miao Pengbo lost, not only Miao Pengbo, but even he himself would likely fail to walk out of the Xingjia Hotel alive.
As Miao Pengbo sustained more and more injuries, he suddenly let out a roar, throwing successive punches into the empty air around him. Unable to match Honglian's blinding speed, he had no choice for self-preservation but to continuously project his internal energy outward to stall Honglian's offensive.
"Cornered beasts still fight." Honglian's expression remained unchanged. Although she was only at the Nether Penetration Late-stage, her speed was matchless and her moves unfathomable; yet in terms of raw physical strength, she was on par with Miao Pengbo. Faced with Miao Pengbo's unreserved projection of energy, she was forced to actively widen the distance between them, and her momentum was slightly checked.
