Chapter 13

"It's not over yet!" Daniel Thompson let out a muffled roar. Charles Bennett hurriedly prepared to defend himself, but saw the other raise both hands, his whole body trembling violently as if having a seizure, stomping his feet repeatedly on the ground, and shouting nonstop, "Disciple respectfully invites the Patriarch to possess me!"

"Disciple respectfully invites the Patriarch to possess me!"

"Disciple respectfully invites the Patriarch to possess me!"

"Spirit possession! Inviting a spirit to possess the body?" James Carter's eyes bulged like copper bells at the sight.

Legend has it that in the vast world there are countless immortals, and this spirit possession technique uses a special, unknown secret method and incantations to communicate with the gods, borrowing their power to possess the body, making one invincible—no martial art can compare. So when spirit possession is invoked, all external and internal martial arts, Taekwondo, Jeet Kune Do, Karate, and so on, all have to step aside.

"Ah-da!" Daniel Thompson let out a Bruce Lee-like yell, suddenly leaping nearly two meters, launching a flying kick at Charles Bennett. Charles Bennett tried to block with his hands, but was shocked to find the opponent's strength had increased tenfold, and his speed was much faster. He was kicked to the ground by the force, rolled several times, and only managed to get up far away, both hands feeling as if they were broken.

"Bruce Lee's spirit possessed him?" James Carter was even more astonished. Everyone present was dumbfounded.

After kicking down Charles Bennett, Daniel Thompson lunged at Thomas Harris. Seeing such a bizarre scene, Thomas Harris felt a chill in his heart. His hand was grabbed tightly, and no matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free. Then, with a loud smack, he was kicked in the abdomen and fell to the ground, unable to get up.

"Classmate, that's enough, stop fighting!" Emily Bolton saw that Daniel Thompson seemed to have gone mad, chasing the two around the room, and they couldn't defend themselves at all! She hurried forward to intervene.

"Oh no!" James Carter's heart tightened. He dashed forward, just in time to see Daniel Thompson turn his head, eyes bloodshot, completely crazed, and suddenly swing a kick at Emily Bolton's face!

James Carter reached out and grabbed, feeling something soft in his hand. Emily Bolton screamed, but there was no time to care. He pulled her along, leaped, and barely dodged the attack. At that moment, Daniel Thompson let out another "Ah-da!", flipped in midair, landed with a bounce, and launched a series of kicks.

Seeing the legendary, mysterious spirit possession technique, James Carter felt a bit apprehensive and dared not take it head-on. He grabbed Emily Bolton, pulled her behind him, spotted a vaulting horse in front, channeled energy into his palm, and pushed it forward, sending it right into Daniel Thompson's path. Daniel Thompson kicked it aside, and James Carter instantly gauged the power, then closed in.

With a Thunderbolt Stance, he struck with the Mountain-Pushing Palm, hitting right under the ribs.

This time, he was prepared, holding back seventy to eighty percent of his strength, so he didn't kill or break Daniel Thompson's bones. But even so, Daniel Thompson couldn't withstand it, collapsing onto the foam mat and passing out.

Turning to look at Emily Bolton, he saw her clothes at the chest had been pulled open, revealing pink underwear. In the hot weather, everyone wore little, and James Carter immediately realized what he had grabbed, no wonder it felt so soft.

"You!" Emily Bolton's face was as red as an apple, her delicate eyebrows arching upward, perhaps a sign she was about to explode. James Carter, however, was thinking, "Spirit possession shouldn't be this weak. And how did Bruce Lee get summoned? Legend says others summon the Monkey King, Nezha, Lü Dongbin..."

Emily Bolton was also feeling conflicted, unsure whether to get angry. Logically, he had saved her, but she couldn't just let him take advantage for nothing.

"Woo-la! Woo-la! Woo-la!" Police sirens blared outside, suddenly stopping nearby. Then came a clatter, like a pack of wolves released from a hungry cell, as dozens of armed police officers burst in. James Carter froze, instinctively lunging toward the window, but then remembered his mother's warning and stopped himself.

"That's him, stop!"

"Arrest him!"

Five or six exceptionally agile detectives rushed over, simultaneously grabbing James Carter and slamming him to the ground! With a click, the handcuffs were on. The people's police truly lived up to their reputation—each one was highly skilled.

James Carter's moment of hesitation led to his capture. One officer twisted his arm so hard it seemed he wouldn't let go until it broke.

For self-protection, James Carter twisted his cuffed hands forcefully—crack! The chain in the middle of the cuffs snapped in two. At the same time, his joints crackled like beans being shelled, and his hands and feet slapped the ground, bouncing up as if a centipede had suddenly been set on fire, leaping high into the air!

The five or six officers pinning down James Carter were flung off in an instant!

This "Centipede Leap" was a secret technique of Xingyi Quan, an internal martial art, which James Carter had spent a fortune to learn and practiced for years.

"Resist again and we'll shoot!" James Carter had just gotten up when he saw several black gun barrels aimed at him, and he couldn't help but raise his hands!

Chapter 007: Internal Martial Arts Master

To kill a man in ten steps, and travel a thousand miles without leaving a trace!

Alas, such exhilarating lines could only have been written by Li Bai, Li Qinglian, throughout the ages.

Laughing heartily, turning oneself into a streak of white light, darting around the room, eyes flashing, in an instant taking the heads of dozens of police officers present, then soaring into the sky and leaving at ease. Who would care about national laws and regulations then!
