Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 2409 - 2473: You Must Die

"Besides me, no one dares to bully my man!" The Saintess’s expression also darkened. This girl was no pushover. In fact, among the women of the Li family, the Saintess was absolutely the most rebellious, with a powerful background and formidable strength. She could be both a temptress enchanting the masses and a virtuous homemaker. When the Yellow Ox provoked Li Yifei, the Saintess was naturally indignant, so when she prepared to act, she targeted him.The Saintess’s face was cold and stern. She just nodded slightly at Li Yifei and then dashed out to make the first move.

The Yellow Ox snickered and said, "Unaware of your impending doom, Saintess or not, soon you’ll be nothing but mince!"

The Black Tiger also moved. His whole body seemed like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, with his movements carrying the sound of a tiger’s roar. Li Yifei was unsure of how many such experts existed within the Noah’s Ark Organization, but deducing from their names, there might be twelve of them.

In an organization with twelve top-tier experts, or one might call them Innate Experts, this was truly astonishing strength.

Even in the Holy War Organization, aside from those top-ranked elders and the Saintess, there weren’t absolutely more than a dozen top-tier experts, not even counting those reclusive masters. As for Huaxia, at least the top-tier experts Li Yifei could count probably didn’t reach twelve either, though including those hidden away from the world might reach that number.

They also had a captain, who very likely was Murong Zheng, or perhaps Murong Zheng was merely one of these twelve Saint Beast Masters.

This was Li Yifei’s previous speculation. He also suspected the relatively composed White Sheep among the three might be Murong Zheng, but based on age, this didn’t seem right. Murong Zheng was at least around eighty years old now, maybe even older, while White Sheep looked only around thirty or forty.

As Black Tiger charged over, Li Yifei was not flustered. He anticipated the opponent’s speed, so when a dark shadow rushed over, Li Yifei displayed his movement techniques, dodging left and right, causing Black Tiger’s first wave of attacks to miss.

In a duel between top-tier experts, even a slight mistake can be critical. Li Yifei didn’t pay attention to the battle on the Saintess’s side. After exchanging a few moves with Black Tiger, he raised his hand to draw the Mohist War Blade strapped to his back.

Black Tiger’s body seemed as if cast from refined steel, causing Li Yifei’s hand to throb faintly with pain when they clashed.

"Heh, Li Yifei, do you think dodging will help? I’ve only used a tiny bit of strength!" Black Tiger suddenly halted, gave a sinister smile, his skin darkening further, and his eyes growing redder, giving him a daunting appearance.

"Your conjunctivitis is getting worse," Li Yifei said with a faint smile as the Mohist War Blade burst forth with a wave of sword energy. He released his aura, spun the blade, and sent two waves of sword energy charging at Black Tiger. After two swishing sounds, Black Tiger took two hits; his red eyes paused slightly, and he took a deep breath. Within the Twelve Holy Beasts, while his defense wasn’t the strongest, it also wasn’t the weakest. When the opponent drew out an oddly shaped blade and slashed him twice, he didn’t care and took them head-on. As a result...two cuts appeared on his flanks.

Dark red blood flowed out. It didn’t hurt much, after all, his perception of pain was low, but the outcome was hard to accept.

"How is this possible, there’s something wrong with your blade!" Black Tiger quickly grasped the root of the problem. When they left the island, the three of them had examined Li Yifei’s information, knowing he had reached expert status in just a few years and later somehow became an Innate Expert, then consecutively defeated some of the era’s masters to become a top-tier expert. Yet, to the three of them, it wasn’t concerning. They were personally trained by the captain, unlike those outsiders.

But the sight before him left Black Tiger somewhat speechless. Those two slashes actually broke through his defense and injured him.

Black Tiger touched the wound at his waist, and the sensation was real and couldn’t be faked.

From quite a distance behind, the still inactive White Sheep also raised an eyebrow. He wasn’t in a hurry to act. He had an incomplete understanding of Li Yifei and the Saintess, assuming the two were just average experts with no significant threat. But when Li Yifei drew his blade and unleashed two slashes, White Sheep’s eyes widened. Instinctively, he realized the two slashes were formidable, and upon seeing Black Tiger wounded, he was shocked.

Could they really be this powerful? White Sheep also eyed Li Yifei’s blade. Its peculiar shape was baffling. The blade exuded no apparent power...yet those two slashes...

As he pondered this, Black Tiger suddenly roared. His hands seemed to undergo a change, suddenly sporting claws like Wolverine’s, but these weren’t worn—rather, they grew from his body.

"You must die!" Black Tiger kicked his legs with force, propelling himself forward like a cannonball. His claws swung in the air, emitting a sword energy or blade energy that was even thinner than before. Li Yifei wouldn’t be foolish like him, so he activated his body technique and swung the Mohist War Blade to deflect several energy streams.

On the other side, Yellow Bull unleashed unimaginable brute strength. Apart from being female, she didn’t have any feminine traits, including a mysterious force. The war hammer in her hand was made of special material, weighing eighty kilograms—heavier than an ordinary person. This giant hammer, when wielded by her, created a gust, capable of crushing a wall and even a person.

Li Yifei, besides the Holy Maiden, was not a weakling. Although she might appear clumsy when fighting him, it wasn’t solely because of a disparity in strength but also due to their special relationship. Facing other enemies, the Holy Maiden had no such psychological burden.

Therefore, when Yellow Bull swung the war hammer, the Holy Maiden not only responded easily but soon, after adapting, launched a counterattack.

Black Tiger panted heavily, his upper body clothes torn off, revealing a long wound from his right shoulder to left ribcage. This wound was inflicted by Li Yifei’s recent slash with the Mohist War Blade, which carved along Black Tiger’s right shoulder to his left rib. If not for White Sheep pulling him back at the critical moment, Black Tiger might have been slashed open by Li Yifei.

Black Tiger dared not underestimate Li Yifei anymore. His eyes were still blood-red, but his expression showed a hint of fear. If Li Yifei had hit him, not even the immortals could save him.

"Rest for a bit, stop the bleeding, and we’ll attack him together!" White Sheep said calmly to Black Tiger, who nodded vigorously and stepped aside. White Sheep shook his arms, releasing two blades from his sleeves, each about thirty to forty centimeters long, with short handles fitting perfectly in the grip. The blades had three edges, resembling a fork. Spinning the weapons in his hands a few times, White Sheep looked at Li Yifei and said, "I underestimated you. I didn’t expect your blade to be so sharp."

Li Yifei squinted, raised his chin slightly, and said, "Stop talking nonsense!"

"Alright." White Sheep paused, feeling rebuked by Li Yifei, his face darkened, and at a distance of four to five meters, he swung his weapons, sending several blade energies at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei moved sideways two steps, and the Mohist War Blade created layers of True Qi as well, releasing blade energy.

The two instantaneously engaged in a fierce exchange. Fighting with weapons was entirely different from fighting without. White Sheep’s oddly shaped blades had their origins, obtained in a past mission and gifted by the captain upon seeing his fondness. Even within Noah’s Ark, these blades were renowned. But today, against the Mohist War Blade from Mohism thousands of years ago, which was far superior.

Thus, when the weapons clashed, Li Yifei’s adept knife techniques quickly put White Sheep at a disadvantage.

Too careless! White Sheep dodged Li Yifei’s fierce combo, feeling a sore twinge in his palm. Li Yifei’s moves were relentless, his strength immense, coupled with the power of the Mohist War Blade, leaving White Sheep in a bind.

No wonder Green Mouse refused to join us. White Sheep gritted his teeth, recalling Green Mouse, one of the Twelve Holy Beasts. Though possibly the weakest, Green Mouse excelled in cunning and calculation. Despite the captain’s tutelage, Green Mouse chose to oversee a base in South Africa, leaving the three of us to practice at headquarters.

Now it seemed Green Mouse better understood Li Yifei and the Holy Maiden’s capabilities. This rascal refused the ambush yet didn’t stop the three of us from trying. Damn it! Racing thoughts filled White Sheep, tempted even to flee.

The Li Yifei in the dossier was nothing like the current adversary. It wasn’t just the advantage of weapons, but a different demeanor and confidence in all aspects.

Unaware of White Sheep’s thoughts, Li Yifei saw him retreat and quickly pursued, following with a fierce slash of the Mohist War Blade, wrapped in intense blade energy. As White Sheep scrambled to regain focus, he saw the Mohist War Blade coming down furiously, hurriedly retreating, but missed the large rock behind him, tumbling unceremoniously to the ground.

Given his level, stumbling like this showed how panicked he was.

Nonetheless, he couldn’t evade Li Yifei’s blade. The initial strike missed, but Li Yifei quickly charged again. Lying on the ground, White Sheep’s eyes filled with countless blade shadows, which ultimately condensed into one, the dark Mohist War Blade coming from the illusion, cutting towards him.
