Chapter 1146

Severely Wounding Somy

Upon hearing Matthew’s words, the woman instantly broke into curses.

Staring straight at Matthew, Somy laughed instead of exploding with rage. “Since you’re bent on courting
death, I’ll grant your death wish!” he said. As he spoke, he knocked the bowl of his tobacco pipe against
Matthew’s elbow with a wave of his right hand.

Not expecting Somy to strike so quickly, Matthew quickly stepped back to dodge the attack. However,
Somy was even faster than him. The instant he stepped back, Somy took a step forward right away,
knocking the bowl of his tobacco pipe against Matthew’s joint instead.

Matthew hurriedly fell back, whereas Somy closed in on him unhurriedly. No matter how Matthew drew
back, there was no way he could dodge Somy’s attack.

Just when Matthew was about to be forced into a corner, he suddenly turned around and dodged Somy
from an extremely tricky angle.

At the sight of the scene, Somy was involuntarily startled. “What’s that? Does such a move exist in the
Eight Fists?”

Matthew didn’t bother to answer Somy’s questions, though. Does this old man seriously think that I only
know the Eight Fists? Having inherited his ancestors’ legacy, Matthew was very knowledgeable about all
kinds of martial arts in the world. He had merely been forced to draw back just now because Somy had
made the first move. Now that he had dodged Somy’s attack, he attacked Somy right away without
wasting his breath.

Somy quickly parried Matthew’s blows several times. This time, though, his face twisted into a look of
disbelief. “You’re not using the Eight Fists! Y-You’re using so many kinds of martial arts at the same



time… The Form-Intention Fist, the eight trigrams arts, Wing Chun boxing, Monkey King’s Fists, and the
Springing Leg! Who the hell did you learn all these from?” he exclaimed while fighting Matthew.

Matthew was like a walking encyclopedia of martial arts. Not only was he skilled in all forms of martial
arts, but he was so proficient in them that he could use them freely without much hesitation.



It didn’t take long before Somy became the one who was forced into drawing back. He was totally
stupefied by Matthew’s fighting skills. After all, he had never seen anyone who was proficient in so many
kinds of martial arts!

In reality, after fighting Somy for so long, Matthew had realized that the former was indeed a formidable
fighter who was even stronger than Lord Voodoo’s apprentice. If Matthew were to run into Somy before
he met Lord Voodoo, it would probably have taken him a lot of trouble to defeat Somy. However, now
that he had fought against several expert fighters in a row, he became more and more experienced in
combat, so Somy’s fighting prowess was pretty much nothing to him.

It didn’t take long before Somy was forced into a corner. Seizing the opportunity, Matthew hit him right in
the chest with a one-inch punch, breaking three of his ribs as a consequence.

Coughing up several mouthfuls of blood, Somy collapsed weakly onto the ground, unable to get up
anymore.

Upon seeing what had happened, everyone at the scene was stunned. None of them had thought that
Matthew would be able to defeat Somy. After all, Somy had once been ranked among Eastshire’s top ten
expert fighters and was a presence whom no one in Eastshire dared to provoke. To think that this young
man defeated him so easily!



The woman from earlier was stunned for a long time. Suddenly, she let out a cry and ran over to help
Somy up. “Dad! Dad, how are you? Are you alright?”

Somy coughed up blood while grabbing the woman’s arm. He urged in a trembling voice, “Flee! H-Hurry
up and flee…”

The woman was furious, though. “Dad, how could I leave after he beat you up so badly? I gotta avenge
you!” she said. Then, she jumped up right away in an attempt to fight Matthew with all her might.

However, Matthew turned around and sent her flying with a kick without even taking a look at her.

Collapsing before Somy, the woman coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood in succession. Like her father,
she couldn’t get up anymore. Only then did she realize how far she was from being a match for the man.

Matthew then went straight up to Old Master Leigh while saying in a cold voice, “Who else did you hire,
Mr. Leigh? Just call all of them over!”

Old Master Leigh’s face turned ashen. He never dreamed that the three expert fighters that he had
carefully handpicked would suffer a crushing defeat just like that. The Leigh Family is really done for this
time! he thought.
