Chaotic Battle

Murakami's close combat skills weren't weak.

After all, he had received formal K'un-Lun education.

However, he still hadn't expected that he, who had initiated the attack, would be sent flying with a punch from Russell.

Not only was he hit, but what made it worse was the astounding power behind Russell's fist.

If it weren't for his Qi cultivation and the nourishing of his body by the Dragon Bone, that punch alone could have taken him out.

As Murakami was sent flying, he hadn't even touched the ground when he involuntarily spewed a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.

Seeing Murakami being knocked away by a single punch, Alexandra acted decisively, catching him in midair and preventing him from ending up in an embarrassing fall.

Huh?

He wasn't killed with a single punch?

Seeing Murakami's pale face and labored breathing, Russell slightly furrowed his brows.

While he wasn't a traditional martial artist, he had learned some martial arts from various schools in New York.

The Half-Step Collapsing Fist he had just used was learned from one of these schools.

The supposedly weakest Iron Fist had been taken down by him using a Gatling.

This time, he intended to experience K'un-Lun's martial arts through Murakami and the others.

Although he had only thrown a single punch, Murakami and Alexandra were fully alert.

Onlookers may see the excitement, but experts see the path!

Even though Russell hadn't fully engaged yet, the Half-Step Collapsing Fist from earlier already spoke volumes.

Both the speed and timing of his attack demonstrated his impressive combat skills.

Moreover, he had taken the risk of attacking while Murakami had a samurai sword.

While Murakami and Alexandra hadn't directly dealt with Russell before, they had heard of his deeds.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have recognized Russell as the infamous Traveler at first glance.

"Don't waste any more time. Come at me together!"

Russell didn't seize the opportunity to attack Murakami and Alexandra. Instead, he motioned with his fingers, looking disdainful and saying, "Come on, both of you!"

Seeing his arrogant behavior, Murakami and Alexandra's already unpleasant expressions became even more severe.

They had encountered arrogant people before.

However, those who dared to be arrogant in front of them generally didn't end up well.

If the person opposite them wasn't Russell but someone else, they would have taught the other party what true cruelty meant.

However, that wasn't the case now.

Based on the current situation, it wasn't Russell who was going to have a tragic end; it was them.

Although the situation wasn't great, Murakami and Alexandra had no intention of surrendering.

Surrender?

The word "surrender" wasn't in their dictionary!

Murakami and Alexandra quickly exchanged glances.

Subsequently, one after the other, they both charged towards Russell.

Watching Murakami and Alexandra fully engaged, Russell displayed a contented smile.

It should have been like this from the start!

A few minutes later.

Murakami and Alexandra lay on the ground, faces twisted in pain, glaring at Russell.

While they had put up a fight, the gap between them and Russell was just too vast.

Whether it was Qi or other martial skills they learned from K'un-Lun, they couldn't inflict a fatal blow on Russell.

After playing with them for a few minutes and experiencing K'un-Lun's martial arts, Russell stopped holding back and launched a full-scale assault.

Soon after, he left Murakami and Alexandra incapacitated on the ground, their limbs broken.

Looking at Murakami and Alexandra, who were clearly in pain yet remained silent, Russell nodded with satisfaction.

Although their strength was mediocre, they had strong spirits.

At the very least, they didn't beg for mercy.

With a thought, two black tendrils emerged from his back, coiling around Murakami and Alexandra who had lost their mobility, much like snakes. Then, he started dragging them downstairs.

Just like before, he didn't take the elevator but led Murakami and Alexandra into a safe passage.

While Russell was dealing with Murakami and Alexandra, Bullseye and Mr. Negative had encountered their own opponents.

Two against three!

They faced off against Madame Gao, Bakuto, and Sowande.

Mr. Negative had transformed into a black-and-white form resembling a photographic negative, wildly releasing the negative energy that catalyzed negative emotions. Apart from converting negative energy into energy waves to strike down Madame Gao's group, he also condensed negative energy into an energy blade, engaging in close combat with them intermittently.

Mr. Negative stood at the forefront like a tank, while Bullseye, possessing extraordinary throwing skills, hid in the distance, using various objects as weapons to hurl at Madame Gao's group.

Bullseye's attacks appeared haphazard, but every item he threw demonstrated astonishing accuracy.

If it weren't for Madame Gao's group's considerable skill, Bullseye's throwing attacks alone would have overwhelmed them.

Although it seemed like two against three, Bullseye and Mr. Negative were clearly in control.

However, the problem was that, apart from Madame Gao's group, they had many others to deal with.

The Hand ninjas brandishing cold weapons attacked them relentlessly, seemingly oblivious to the concept of death.

These Hand ninjas might not have been their equals, but they were still causing Bullseye and Mr. Negative considerable trouble.

Their battle with Madame Gao's group, combined with the intervention of the Hand ninjas, had turned into a fierce struggle.

14th floor of the building.

Russell emerged from the safe passage, dragging Murakami and Alexandra along.

The bumpy ride had left them speechless.

Pushing open the fire door, Russell was met with the chaotic scene of the battle in progress.

Bullseye and Mr. Negative were in the middle of the floor.

Surrounded by a large number of fearless Hand ninjas, they were facing off against Madame Gao's group.

Amidst the chaos, the negative energy with its faint white hue swirled amidst the darkness, knocking down one Hand ninja after another.

Apart from the Hand ninjas, Madame Gao's group continued to assault Bullseye and Mr. Negative relentlessly.

Madame Gao may have appeared frail, resembling a delicate elderly woman who could fall at any moment, but her skills were far from ordinary. She was just as capable as the Hand ninjas.

Bakuto and Sowande weren't idle either, Bakuto a relentless attack on Bullseye and Mr. Negative.

Observing Bullseye and Mr. Negative being besieged, Russell didn't immediately join the battle. Instead, he found a good spot to watch the chaotic fight before him.
