80 -77: The Union of Sword and Saber

Watching Ximen Wuhen charging furiously towards him, I Want to Be Immortal panicked a bit.

“Feng!”

“Don’t panic, just hold him off,” Xiao Jie’s voice remained calm.

He knew very well that the opponent’s level advantage was too great; if they really wanted to escape, his side couldn’t stop them.

To kill him, they must delay time until Ye Luo arrived.

Otherwise, even winning would be useless.

Now, what they needed to do was to use their numerical advantage to buy time.

Unexpectedly, Ximen Wuhen suddenly pulled a piece of meat from his bag.

“You think two more dogs can stand against me?

Hahahaha, think again.”

He violently threw the meat behind the two men.

Beast Temptation!

Immediately, the surrounding forest erupted with the barking of wild dogs, and several wild dogs charged out roaring.

Xiao Jie’s expression changed, knowing that if their formation got disrupted, it would be bad.

His reaction was also very quick.

“Rou Qiu, eat it fast!”

Rou Qiu obediently bit into the meat on the ground, this creature was not so good in a fight, but it was a great eater when it came to food.

Xiao Jie hurriedly pulled out another piece of meat and threw it far towards the direction from which the barking was coming.

Beast Temptation!

The roaring of the wild dogs abruptly ceased.

Seizing this opportunity, Rou Qiu finally swallowed the meat.

Ximen Wuhen’s expression slightly changed.

That worked?

He pulled out a flying dagger and threw it.

Xiao Jie and I Want to Be Immortal didn’t waste words, pulling out their bow and arrow and firing.

The two sides exchanged blows, and it was clear that Xiao Jie’s side had a bit of an advantage.

However, Ximen Wuhen immediately changed tactics and began to circle around the trio and two dogs.

At such close range, the bow and arrow were no longer usable.

Xiao Jie and I Want to Be Immortal switched to melee weapons, ready to engage in combat, but Ximen Wuhen did not charge at them; instead, he was dodging left and right, seeking a breach in their formation.

Xiao Jie and I Want to Be Immortal also kept changing positions.

The two sides faced off for a while, and although Ximen Wuhen had a higher level, Xiao Jie’s side had the advantage in numbers, so both were at an impasse.

However, during the stalemate, a Lost Soul Mountain Bandit suddenly collapsed with a thud.

This thing only lasted 180 seconds, and it really wasn’t very durable in a sustained battle.

Originally, the trio and two dogs formed a tight circle, but now a gap suddenly appeared.

Ximen Wuhen immediately seized the opportunity and charged in.

Combat Skill—Cloud Piercing Kick!

He leapt forward with a kick, knocking I Want to Be Immortal to the ground, about to move in for the kill.

Broken Teeth, anxious to protect its master, aimed at Ximen Wuhen and made a flying pounce—Choking!

Ximen Wuhen quickly turned direction, his dual blades ready, Helical Slash—Double Blade Style!

Swipe, swipe, swipe!

Dual blade Helical Slash cut through.

Mid-air, Broken Teeth took full damage, instantly shredded into pieces of meat and killed.

Xiao Jie took the opportunity to rush up and landed a blow of One Cut, Two Pieces on Ximen Wuhen’s body.

Blade flashed -51!

Ximen Wuhen was startled, he had not been hit by this move before and didn’t expect the damage to be so high.

Although his blood volume was substantial at 350, one cut directly took away an seventh of it.

He hastily used a Grass Flying to increase the distance and took out a blood bottle to drink.

I Want to Be Immortal got up and, seeing his pet killed, immediately roared in anger.

He wanted to rush towards Ximen Wuhen.

“Don’t go there!

Come back!”

“But!”

“Come back!” Xiao Jie shouted sternly, at this moment it was a matter of life and death, losing composure meant death; the two of them could hold on back to back, but chaos in their ranks would lead to only one path—death.

After this exchange, he had already probed the strength and weaknesses of his opponent; Ximen Wuhen’s skills were definitely not as good as his, who relied on high attributes and powerful skills to repeatedly succeed.

There was a white bar under the opponent’s health bar, which should be the so-called Inner Power Value.

Every time the opponent used Qinggong, the inner power value would decrease slightly, meaning the opponent’s Qinggong couldn’t be used indefinitely.

As long as they stayed calm on their end and didn’t break ranks, they could hold their ground.

Unfortunately, if he were Level 14; no, even around Level 12, and combined with Qinggong, he would be confident enough to defeat his opponent alone.

Now, all he could do was wait for the right moment while trying to deplete the opponent’s inner power as much as possible to create a chance for a final kill.

Although I Want to Be Immortal was furious, he managed to suppress his anger and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xiao Jie, holding their ground.

Rou Qiu glanced at the ground covered in dog meat and decisively cowered, hiding behind the two without daring to show his face.

Ximen Wuhen replenished his blood volume, seeing the two still maintaining their formation made him somewhat impatient; the two covered each other, so attacking one would mean getting hit by the other.

He really couldn’t easily win.

Moreover, he was here to extort money; how could he make money if he killed them?

With that in mind, he launched a psychological attack.

“Hehe, aren’t you going to surrender yet?

Your dog is dead, and the summoned mountain bandits are about out of time.”

“If you don’t surrender soon, I may just change my mind—”

“Then even if you give me the money, I won’t spare you…”

Xiao Jie suddenly laughed; he saw shadows between the trees, a dark figure silently approaching—it was Ye Luo!

“Bullshit!

Go to hell!”

Xiao Jie suddenly roared and charged forward fiercely.

This roar was utterly unexpected and startled Ximen Wuhen.

Seeing Xiao Jie charging towards him, he was initially delighted.

You want to die, I’ll grant your wish.

Helical…

Just as he was about to strike with his saber, a shadow like a ghost suddenly appeared behind him.

Backstabbing!

With a thrust, -47!

His blood volume plummeted.

Ximen Wuhen was startled and used two consecutive Grass Flying to dash far away.

Turning around and seeing Ye Luo gave him a shock, but he sneered, “I didn’t expect that, so you had someone lying in ambush!

Is this your backup plan?

Haha, don’t think this means you can win.

I have reinforcements too, and it’s a Level 18 master.”

“The reinforcements you’re talking about—is it him—”

Ye Luo spoke indifferently, taking a severed head from his bag and casually throwing it to the ground where it rolled to Ximen Wuhen’s feet, the face full of terror and eyes wide open in death.

“In fact, he was only Level 12.”

“Nangong Wuqing!

This can’t be!” Ximen Wuhen exclaimed, his tone full of disbelief.

Looking at the three people in front of him, as well as the heads of his companions on the ground, a wave of fear suddenly surged in his heart.

Although he had killed quite a few people on normal days, each time he bullied the weaker newcomers.

The thought of possibly dying himself suddenly drained him of the audacity he had before.

If he truly had the courage to face death, he wouldn’t have run back to Newbie Village.

The next second, his feet stomped the ground, Qinggong—Eight Steps to Catch a Cicada!

His speed instantly increased as he began to run.

Almost at the same moment, Ye Luo made his move.

Earth Binding Talisman!

A flash of yellow light, and Ximen Wuhen’s speed slowed down again, but he continued to sprint all out.

“Chase!”

Xiao Jie shouted, and the three of them hurriedly chased after him, but I Want to Be Immortal only managed a few steps before he lagged behind, his equipment was too heavy.

By the time he clumsily stripped off his Armor, the other three were already far ahead.

Ximen Wuhen was genuinely scared, running fiercely, only thinking of escaping this place.

Xiao Jie chased while shooting arrows, having been suppressed by the opponent for half a day, this was not the time to let him escape.

Ximen Wuhen, however, wasn’t tense.

He had played with bows and arrows too.

Fixed targets were ok, but hitting a moving target was very difficult, and the bow and arrow’s crosshair would enlarge when moving, making it impossible to shoot accurately.

As long as he kept running…

Puft!

An arrow hit right into his back.

-14!

Ximen Wuhen was startled.

Impossible, the other party must have guessed it!

He didn’t slow down or turn but continued to run wildly.

Whoosh! frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Sure enough, the second arrow flew over his head.

Whoosh!

But the third arrow hit his back again.

-13!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

-12!

MISS!

-13!

With an average of two out of three arrows hitting, the damage was neither high nor low.

But he couldn’t withstand being hit without being able to fight back.

As Xiao Jie ran, he kept shooting arrows, each click of the mouse steady as a veteran dog.

He had been playing archery games for over a decade; Mount & Blade, Overwatch, Elder Scrolls…

He had absolutely mastered the feel of a bow and arrow, especially combined with the Steady Shooting Skill, his hit rate was frighteningly high.

Because of the Earth Binding Talisman, Ximen Wuhen dared not move left or right, or else the two behind would catch up, but running in a straight line naturally made it easier to be shot.

In a blink, the three ran several hundred meters away while Ximen Wuhen’s back had seven or eight arrows sticking out like a porcupine.

Seeing his health bar drop to about half, and his Inner Power Value also running low, Ximen Wuhen knew he couldn’t continue this way; if he kept running, he would soon be chased to death.

Suddenly a large tree appeared in front of him, a flash of ferocity crossing his heart, he decided to gamble!

With a flash, he moved behind the tree, instantly losing his figure.

Ye Luo quickly sped up to chase after him, not giving him a chance to take a healing potion.

Yet Xiao Jie felt something was amiss; this move was all too familiar.

“Don’t go there.”

The next second, Ye Luo was hit with Double Blade Continuous Slash, and was knocked flying.

Ye Luo had a total of just 150 health, and this instantly took half of it.

This was the downside of specializing in certain attributes; although she was up to Level 10 because she had put 20 points into Perception, her actual attribute value wasn’t much different from Xiao Jie’s.

Seeing Ximen Wuhen rush up ready to execute, Xiao Jie quickly sped up and got in front.

“All of you die!” Ximen Wuhen screamed, slashing with his dual blades.

Helical Blade Dance!

At this moment, Ximen Wuhen was both angry and afraid, only thinking of taking the two in front of him down with him.

However, Xiao Jie was exceptionally calm; this move, though flashy, was just a stronger version of the Helical Slash.

After a series of exchanges, he had already mastered the rhythm of its attack and had even seen through the opponent’s attacking habits.

By now, a series of combat processes had already formed in his mind.

Blade Reflection!

Clang!

Amidst the sound of metal clashing, the attack was instantly deflected, and Ximen Wuhen froze in place, watching as Xiao Jie cut towards him.

Puft!

-21!

Saber Skill—Gale…

Black Tiger Heart-pulling!

-28!

A punch landed directly on Ximen Wuhen’s chest, disrupting his move.

“Ye Luo!” Xiao Jie shouted loudly, hiding his sword, ready to Charge, as if he was about to use a Big Move.

One Cut—

However, this cut was a feint.

The moment he swung his sword, Xiao Jie immediately canceled his Charging, knowing Ximen Wuhen would surely use his lifesaving Qinggong.

As expected.

Qinggong—Grass Flying!

Ximen Wuhen panicked and swiftly dodged to the right.

Just as he dodged, Ye Luo also abruptly moved—Assassin’s Step!

The moment Ximen Wuhen reappeared, Ye Luo’s figure once again emerged behind him, Backstabbing!

Puft, -49!

Only less than 50 health was left.

Ximen Wuhen completely panicked.

Grass Flying!

System notification: your Inner Strength is insufficient.

What!?

In the moment Ximen Wuhen froze, Xiao Jie had already appeared in front of him; he had been calculating the opponent’s Inner Power Value all along, constantly forcing the opponent to expend Inner Strength.

No more games to play now.

Helical Slash!

Xiao Jie unleashed three consecutive slashes, and Ximen Wuhen, exhausted from Inner Strength, fell into a brief paralysis.

Swipe, swipe, swipe!

The final slash swept across, Ximen Wuhen’s neck sprayed blood, and he staggered to the ground.

System notification: You have entered a Near Death state and cannot move.

“Don’t kill me, I’ll give money, I—”

“Die!”

Xiao Jie and Ye Luo hesitated not a moment to strike together.

One sword, one blade, simultaneously stabbing into his body.

Puft!

-19!

-24!

System notification: You are now dead.
