The old man chuckled and didn't answer a thing. He darted in again, his palms shifting through a flurry of strikes in front of him, and only when he was close to Li Qingmu did he suddenly claw up and down at the same time, reaching for his crown and chest.
Li Qingmu didn't dare meet him head‑on. He pushed off hard with his foot and sprang into the air, matching the old man's palms with both feet, borrowing the force to fly backward, then suddenly stamped down with both legs and shot forward like a cannonball straight at the man's face!
The old man hadn't expected Li Qingmu's offense to turn so sharp all of a sudden. There was no time to dodge left or right, so he had no choice but to bend backward in an iron‑bridge, and as Li Qingmu's body flew over him, he hooked his right foot up behind him and kicked out!
