Gu Kaiyuan flipped and vaulted directly down from the top of the cave. With a swift backhand strike, he instantly finished off the nearest large wild boar. By the time the rest of the boars lunged at him, he had already leaped onto a nearby tree.
The two remaining large boars, along with the two injured ones, did not let him off the hook. Instead, they furiously began ramming the tree. Gripping the swaying trunk with one hand and his sword with the other, Gu Kaiyuan suddenly exerted force and thrust the blade forcefully downward. It pierced perfectly into the back of one of the previously injured boars. Squealing in pain, the boar thrashed wildly and scrambled away from the tree.
Gu Kaiyuan curled his lip. Liu Pingkang and his men had decent blades, but they still weren't sharp enough. He pulled out the small dagger he always carried with him. Just as another boar charged headlong at the tree, he dropped down at lightning speed and buried the dagger straight into its skull.
