Xiao wasn't Laughing Li from back then after all. What he had learned over the years was no longer as simple as a mental state.
His person, mind, body, and abilities were much more mature than before. When he was young, he might have relied on his mutated mental state to seek out a possibility for victory, but to the present Xiao, that was no longer the case.
The Companion Beast attacked again. With the augmentation of the mental state, his speed was unbelievably fast.
And just as his fist was about to touch Xiao, Xiao took half a step back. When the Companion Beast's fist struck Xiao's body, it passed through him as though Xiao's body didn't exist. It was just an illusion.
Xiao's figure really began to dissipate like a phantom. Almost at the same time the phantom began to dissipate, another Xiao appeared on the other side of the Companion Beast and threw a punch at the back of the Companion Beast's head.
