Chapter 444: Chapter 444: Alix VS Zu Fheng (part 2)

Alix struggles to his feet, his body aching from the impact. Blood drips from his wounds, but his eyes burn with unwavering determination. "I'm not done yet," he growls, his voice low and filled with resolve. He channels his Qi, his fiery aura flaring brighter than ever.

Zu Fheng's eyes narrow, his smirk fading. "You're persistent, I'll give you that. But persistence alone won't save you."

Alix clenches his fists, the fiery aura around him growing more intense. "I don't need to defeat you alone," he says, his voice strong. "I have my friends with me."

Just then, Eryx reaches Alix's side, his eyes blazing with fury. "We're not giving up," he declares, his fists crackling with energy.

Nox and Kato join them, their shields raised in a defensive stance. "We've got your back, Captain," Nox says, his voice filled with determination.
