Running Away?

Using his qi-based martial arts, Aksai scaled Thorn's body as if it were a ladder.

He found footing on the man's shoulder, exploiting the damage inflicted on Thorn's leg. 

Leaning down, he placed both palms on Thorn's head, using his arms as a support. Aksai stood upside down using his opponent's head as a platform.

"Aaaaaah! Help!" Thorn cried out while trying to shake Aksai off him.

Simultaneously, Aksai's Lian Flying Sword streaked out, whirling with deadly velocity before cleanly severing Thorn's head in a single swift motion.

The battle was a wrap within just 30 seconds.

As Thorn's lifeless body began to slump forward, Aksai executed a cartwheel-like maneuver, landing behind him while holding the severed head aloft.

A straight line of blood drops appeared right in front of Aksai because of the motion the severed head was subjected to.
