But this time it was different, this time they were facing Ling Zhenfei.
Yesterday, Ling Zhenfei had already witnessed Zhou Tong's deadly prowess with the dagger's triple strikes. Those three consecutive blows were swift and fatal, leaving an ordinary person with no chance of retaliation. Therefore, Ling Zhenfei was extremely cautious this time, wary of Zhou Jian and the others teaming up on him, which was why he disrupted their rhythm earlier.
The moment they started moving, it was clear who had more experience. Even though they hesitated for just a moment, it was enough to throw off their rhythm. An enraged Zhou Jian was the first to strike, while the movements of the others were slightly slower. Perhaps less than a second, but for a master, it was enough to be deadly.
Ling Zhenfei used this slight time difference to sidestep the incoming club strikes to his head, maneuvering outside the encirclement, and with a single kick, he sent one of them flying.
