Liu Mang struggled to stand up. He could injure Dong Xi once, but he couldn't injure him a second time. This would only anger Dong Xi and make him focus more on Dong Xi. This way, Liu Mang's weapon wouldn't even be able to get close to Dong Xi's body.
"Die for me!" Dong Xi's giant hammer began to fall again. Liu Mang endured the pain in his body and rolled away. The giant hammer smashed into the ground of the city wall, creating two pits.
Liu Mang grabbed a spear and stood up.
"Die, die, die, die!" Dong Xi's huge body moved again. He was now focusing all his energy on Liu Mang.
"Whoosh whoosh!" Two arrows pierced through the air and flew towards Dong Xi. Dong Xi didn't care at all. Chen Wu, who was beside him, blocked the two arrows for him.
"Kill!" Another two City Guard soldiers rushed up. Dong Xi still didn't care. He only had one person in his eyes, and that was Liu Mang.
"Humph!" Chen Wu couldn't be careless this time. He directly blocked the attacks of the two City Guard soldiers. With him around, Dong Xi wouldn't be injured. He was Dong Xi's defense.
No matter how strong a person is in martial arts, they still have to take into account both attack and defense. But a person's energy is limited. Because of this, only a few talented people can break through to the Divine Refinement realm. Dong Xi and Chen Wu's perception was average, so it was difficult for them to break through to the Divine Refinement realm. But now, they were stronger than ordinary Divine Refinement experts.
However, they were still stronger than the God Refinement realm because one of them gave up on defense and focused on offense, while the other gave up on offense and focused on defense.
When they fought, the two of them combined into one. Chen Wu focused on defense, while Dong Xi focused on offense. The two of them together were invincible.
"Die, bug!" Dong Xi's twin hammers smashed down. If they hit Liu Mang, Liu Mang would certainly be smashed into a meat patty by the pair of hammers. There would be no possibility for him to escape. Although Dong Xi's Saint Cloth was a heavy armor, it would still be difficult to defend against such blunt weapons.
"Good chance!" When Liu Mang saw Dong Xi approaching, he did not panic. Instead, a trace of joy appeared on his face. He suddenly raised the spear in his hand. The spear shook the air as Liu Mang concentrated all his strength on one point.
The spear's speed was extremely fast. If it was just Dong Xi alone, he wouldn't have been able to react in time and would have been pierced.
"You won't have the chance!" Chen Wu sneered. He would not make the same mistake twice. Previously, because of the giant shield, Dong Xi had lost two of his fingers. Even if Dong Xi did not say anything, Chen Wu knew that Dong Xi was dissatisfied because he, Chen Wu, was the one who focused on defense. Dong Xi's injuries were all his fault.
The Damascus Steel Rod in Chen Wu's hand danced like a whirlwind, directly covering Dong Xi's entire body.
"Hehe!" Liu Mang laughed, laughing so happily. His hands suddenly twisted to a certain degree, and the sound of bones cracking could be heard.
"What?!" Chen Wu was stunned. What was this Liu Mang trying to do? He wanted to cripple his arm before he died!
Self-mutilation? That's right. Liu Mang's action might cause his entire arm to break, but Liu Mang was not mutilating himself.
"Overlord Strikes the Cauldron!" Liu Mang roared. Overlord Strikes the Cauldron! If there were old soldiers in the Lvbu's Army, they would know that this move was the halberd move of their lord, Lü Bu. Countless generals had died under this move of Lü Bu. Even Dong Zhuo had died under this move.
The 'Conqueror Strikes the Cauldron' is one of Lu Bu's halberd techniques. This technique uses the whole body's strength to concentrate on a single point. When the halberd is thrust out, the whole body of the halberd will be used as the main body of the attack. If Liu Mang is a refinement level warrior, then this technique will not cost much. However, Liu Mang is not a refinement level warrior. His body does not have the tenacity of a refinement level warrior. The tip of the halberd is fake. The real body of the halberd is the main body of the halberd. The user must twist his arms so that the body of the halberd and the tip of the halberd are switched.
Every part of a refinement level warrior's body had been tempered thousands of times and could be turned over and twisted. Liu Mang could not do it, but he forced himself to do it. He forcibly tore apart the joints of his forearm and upper arm. If he could not tear them apart, then he directly smashed them. The sound of bones cracking was the sound of bones breaking during the process of tearing.
"Go to hell!" Liu Mang's facial expression began to become ferocious. It was too painful. Forcibly breaking his own joints was not something that an ordinary person could endure.
But Liu Mang had no choice but to do it. If he did it, the pain would be unbearable, but if he did not do it, then he would die.
"This speed is impossible!" Chen Wu wanted to control the steel rod that he had waved, but it was too late. Liu Mang's speed was too fast. This speed was not something that a third-rate warrior could achieve. He had a breakthrough!? How could it be!?
Chen Wu could see from the fight between Liu Mang and Dong Xi that Liu Mang's martial arts skills were not up to par. A third-rate warrior could at most reach the rank of Marquis in the army. However, Liu Mang was now the commander of an army. Even some of the scholarly generals, such as Chen Deng and Su Fei, were above second-rate.
Therefore, the fight with Dong Xi was completely one-sided. If it were not for the City Guard, Liu Mang would have been beheaded long ago.
But now, Chen Wu's reaction was not as fast as Liu Mang's. Liu Mang even used martial arts. Martial arts were not something that could be learned just because one wanted to. What a soldier learned was experience and skill. Those with high experience and skill could survive better on the battlefield and kill more enemies. But no matter how good the skill was, it was useless against a warrior.
Without martial arts, no matter how elite the soldiers were, they would only be able to fight against ten or twenty people. Any more and he would not be able to hold on. However, it was different for those who had martial arts. They could fight against a hundred or ten thousand people.
"Humph!" Liu Mang's face was pale because of the pain. Cold sweat also appeared on his forehead, but it did not affect the movements of his hands. Liu Mang had indeed made a breakthrough. He had escaped from death so many times and fought so many times. His body had reached a limit. Don't think that Liu Mang was just idling around. His martial arts had not fallen behind for a single day. Since the last time he fought with Zhou Tai, Liu Mang felt that he might have stepped onto another level. It was just that he could not use it flexibly.
But Dong Xi and Chen Wu gave him this opportunity. Liu Mang was getting more and more familiar with his body after fighting with Dong Xi.
Overlord Striking the Cauldron was Lü Bu's martial arts. It was impossible to understand the key points of it just by looking at it. But Liu Mang had Miss Lü by his side. Although Lü Bu had always said that martial arts were for men and not women, he had already taught everything he could to Miss Lü. And in turn, Miss Lü taught these to Liu Mang.
Liu Mang mainly used a shield, but it did not prevent him from using other weapons. After losing the shield, the spear in his hand gave him a very good opportunity to display his skills.
Liu Mang seemed to have a huge cauldron in front of him. And Liu Mang's task was to use the spear in his hand to directly hit the cauldron and break it.
And Chen Wu was that cauldron! Liu Mang wouldn't choose Dong Xi as his target. He knew that even if he broke through to the Body Tempering Realm, he wouldn't be a match for Dong Xi with Chen Wu's defense. After all, Chen Wu specialized in defense.
Since Dong Xi could not break it, then he would change his target! Since Chen Wu was protecting Dong Xi, he would naturally lower his guard. Moreover, Chen Wu had already suffered a loss. This time, he would be even more hurt by Dong Xi's defense, and he would be exposed.
Liu Mang used the spear in his hand to test it. Sure enough, Chen Wu's attention was all on Dong Xi, and he temporarily ignored him. Liu Mang threw a brick to attract jade, forcing out Chen Wu's steel rod. And Liu Mang used his full strength to attack Chen Wu, who had no defense left.
"So what if you broke through! You still have to die! " Chen Wu also went crazy. He had been tricked twice by Liu Mang. Being careless twice in a row was fatal on the battlefield. Chen Wu also regretted it, but it was too late. Chen Wu's face was full of malevolence. So what if I take your attack? I don't believe that a spear without a tip can stab someone to death. At most, I will be seriously injured, but as long as I can kill him, everything will be worth it.
Dong Xi also discovered Liu Mang's intention. He wanted to help Chen Wu, so he tried to use the hammer in his hand to help Chen Wu. However, he was a person who focused on offense, so how could he help?
"Go to hell!" Liu Mang's spear handle went over the hammer and heavily hit Chen Wu's body.
"Impossible!" Chen Wu's eyes suddenly widened. He did not dare to believe it. How could it be! He looked at the spear handle on his chest.
"Who said that the spear handle can't kill people!" Liu Mang said indifferently. The pain in his arms and the dislocation of his body made him unable to speak loudly.
"Puff!" Chen Wu spat out a mouthful of blood. The blood was mixed with black fragments. These were the fragments of his internal organs. Liu Mang's spear handle directly hit Chen Wu's chest. Indeed, Chen Wu's body was blocked by the armor. A spear without a tip could not pierce Chen Wu's body, but did it really need to pierce through?
The power of the Overlord Strikes the Cauldron was concentrated on Chen Wu's heart. It was as if someone had used a hammer to smash their hearts.
On the surface, there was no injury, but in fact, Chen Wu's heart had already been split open.
"Go!" Liu Mang had no strength left. This move had exhausted all of Liu Mang's strength. If Chen Wu did not die, then Liu Mang really had no way to kill him.
"Haha! I didn't expect this, I really didn't expect this! " Chen Wu's mouth was bleeding, but he still laughed. His heart had been ruptured. It was impossible for him to live. Chen Wu was able to survive until now because of his body and will.
He was very confident in defeating Liu Mang. He was even discussing whether to capture him alive or directly kill him. But now, Chen Wu did not expect that he would die here. He died in the hands of the third-rate King Of Shu.
He was unwilling. Originally, he was waiting for a great merit to take down Wancheng city and even the entire Lujiang. But now, he was left with death.
Chen Wu laughed. A trace of blood flowed out of his mouth. At this time, his chest was already red.
"Die, I will drag you down with me!" Chen Wu went crazy. The contrast between the first merit and death was too big. No one could stand it.
"Kill him, kill him, Dong Xi!"
"Chen Wu!" Dong Xi was also very surprised. Although he likes to eat human flesh and is also very ferocious and evil, even very cruel, but he was also stunned by Liu Mang. One strike one kill, what is one strike one kill? Now, this was it.
"Kill him, kill him! Kill … "Chen Wu could no longer speak. He spat out a large mouthful of blood. His eyes were wide open as he fell to the ground. He died with remaining grievances.
"Ah, Chen Wu, Chen Wu!" Dong Xi panicked. He had been together with Chen Wu for so many years. It was only because of Chen Wu that Dong Xi was born. One of them was in charge of defense while the other was in charge of offense. Chen Wu was Dong Xi's mindset. Dong Xi only had brute force. Without Chen Wu, Dong Xi was nothing.
"It's you, it's you, you killed Chen Wu!" Dong Xi pointed at Liu Mang and shouted. "Die, die!"
"Haha!" Liu Mang looked at Dong Xi. Die? If he did not make a move, he would have died. It would be good if he could drag Chen Wu down with him.
"Woo woo woo woo!" Sun Ce's Army suddenly sounded the signal to retreat.
"Kill him? Retreat? Kill him? Retreat?! " Liu Mang closed his eyes and waited for death to come. What he waited for was Dong Xi muttering to himself.
"General, it's time to retreat! Hurry up and leave! "The Danyang soldiers pulled Dong Xi and said.
"Go, yes, go, retreat. We should retreat when the signal is sounded!" Dong Xi nodded absentmindedly. He picked up Chen Wu's body and followed behind the Danyang soldiers. Under the encirclement of the soldiers, they went up the escalade and retreated down the city wall.
"What happened?!" Liu Mang was also confused. What happened to Dong Xi? Why did he suddenly lose his mind? Why did he retreat?
It was not until later that Liu Mang found out that Dong Xi and Chen Wu were inseparable. The two of them could be considered as conjoined bodies. Chen Wu was the brain between the two of them. If Liu Mang killed Dong Xi, he would have died. However, he killed Chen Wu. Dong Xi did not know what to do after killing Chen Wu. All along, Chen Wu was the one who told Dong Xi what to do. However, when Chen Wu died, Dong Xi panicked. He did not know what to do.
Chen Wu told Dong Xi to kill Liu Mang. However, it was also Chen Wu who told Dong Xi the signal. As long as the signal was sounded, they should retreat. The two of them were fighting. In the end, Dong Xi saved Liu Mang's life under the advice of the Danyang soldiers.
