Chapitre 1016: Inner Disciples

Ryu's gaze flickered as the blade of a javelin appeared before his glabella in the blink of an eye. The speed of the throw was so fast that Ryu almost didn't notice it at all. However, the moment he did, he reacted even quicker.

His great swordstaff flipped in his palm and he formed a reverse as though it weighed nothing more than a short sword.

With a single movement, the polearm appeared in the path of the javelin, clanging against it.

BANG!

Ryu slid backward, his forward momentum having been stopped for the first time.

His head turned in the direction the javelin had come from and he took a step forward, his speed faster than anything he had shown until this very moment.

He was like a blur, his speed impossibly quick and his body like a leaf rushing through a tornado. His gaze blazed with dancing lightning and his twin pair of polearms suddenly erupted with flames, his body descending with the momentum of a meteor.
