Chapter 53: Assassination from Shuǐyún (Fifth Update)

  The next morning.

  Yi Chi stopped the circulation of Dou Qi and felt that there was an additional surge of Dou Qi in his lower body, Yi Chi furrowed his brow.

  "Ah, it would be great if there were infinite energy points. Why didn't you bring me a cheat code?" He complained slightly, but actually, this was just Yi Chi's habit and didn't mean he was being negative or lazy.

  After tidying herself up neatly, Yi Chi stepped out of the room.

  It seems that even if he had maids, Yi Chi never asked them to serve him. Perhaps this is also a manifestation of immaturity, but it's not ruled out that it's due to Yi Chi's personal reasons.

  As soon as he walked out of the room, Yi Chi took a deep breath.

  "Wow..."

  He let out a long sigh, smiled and greeted Qiu Yu and Qiu Xue before walking out.

  "It's still better in another world!! The air is so fresh!!" He sighed to himself and walked out with a light step.

  ......

  "Good morning, Fifth Master."

  "Hello, Fifth Master."

  "Wow, you got up really early!"

  "Little brother, you're going out?"

  ......

  All the way, basically everyone who saw Yi Chi wanted to say hello to him, and Yi Chi didn't hesitate, smiling and responding to each person's greeting, this is also a skillful move!!

  Out of the gate, there was no guard following him, and he didn't know if it was his father's arrangement or something else.

  Can't figure it out, Yi Chi stopped thinking about it, being able to walk alone is also pretty good.

  ......

  Walking aimlessly on the street, for a moment, Yi Chi couldn't think of what to do either.

  "Let's think about last night's things!" After walking for half a day, Yi Chi really couldn't think of anything to do and could only ponder the news he had heard the night before.

  "Assassination, ah!! I wonder how that Water Cloud guy will come to assassinate me? He seems quite confident, so he'll probably just rush over and kill me directly?" Thinking about last night's situation, Yi Chi couldn't help but laugh. Of course, this was also a testament to his confidence in his own abilities. If it were any other One-Star Master, they would definitely be thinking of how to escape right now. But Yi Chi didn't need to - after all, his true strength was formidable!!

  "Honestly, I've never fought against an expert like you before! I'm really looking forward to it!" As he said that, he revealed a silly grin, which startled the passersby nearby.

  He smiled self-deprecatingly and quickly left the place, he didn't want to be looked at with a foolish expression by others all the time.

  ......

  Night.

  Yi Chi was sitting in the courtyard with a good mood, drinking tea. As for drinking wine? Yi Chi didn't like that sort of thing, so let's not mention it.

  "The moonlight is great tonight!" He said with a bit of elegance, Yi Chi sipped his tea lightly under the moonlight in the sky, his eyes full of smile.

  In a dark place not far away, Shuiyun Dashi, who came to assassinate Yiqi, was squatting there leisurely, preparing to assassinate Yiqi.

  "Hmph! You still have the mood to appreciate the moon, soon you'll be meeting King Yan. With a resentful curse, Master Shuiyun slowly moved towards Yi Chi's direction in the darkness."

  Affected by the atmosphere of the surrounding four weeks, Yi Chi was extremely sensitive to darkness due to eating the variant dark fruit.

  "Has he arrived? Haha, right on time!" Although he seemed nonchalant on the surface, Yi Chi's heart was still extremely tense. After all, his opponent was a high-level Da Dou Shi!

  "After using several detection techniques around him, he finally detected the opponent's figure."

  "Entity in Front: Water Cloud, Rank: Seven-Star Grandmaster, Gender: Female, Danger Level: High, ??????"

  Although the detected data is incorrect, Yi Chi at least knew the opponent's position, so...

  "The wind rolls up the remaining building!"

  With a loud shout, Yi Chi Ke wouldn't foolishly wait for the opponent to make a move before counterattacking. Since he had already detected his opponent's position, it was only natural that he would catch them off guard.

  It was obvious that Shuiyun Master was caught off guard by Yi Chi's attack. She personally felt that Yi Chi would definitely not discover her, so she didn't have any defenses at all. Now it was too late, and she was directly hit by Yi Chi.

  At present, Yi Chi's strength in its normal state cannot bring out the power of 'Wind God Leg', but it can still exert 20-30% of it. With his own destiny assisting him, Water Cloud Master was kicked in the chest by Yi Chi more than a dozen times while being careless.

  Bang!

  Like a broken sack, the Water Cloud Master was directly hit by Yi Chi and heavily smashed out of ten meters away, suddenly crashing into the courtyard wall. Fortunately, the walls of Jinghe Courtyard were relatively solid and did not shatter into powder.

  One move succeeded (foot?), Yi Chi didn't even make a pause, directly pounced forward, intending to severely injure Shui Yun Dashi.

  "Hmmph!"

  With a low hum, Water Cloud Master, who had fallen to the ground, quickly dodged Yi Chi's second attack after reacting.

  "Haha, quite a quick reaction!" Yi Chi said with a sarcastic smile, having gotten away cheaply. Now he didn't have the chance to launch another sneak attack, so he might as well mock his opponent a few times, maybe even suppress their morale.

  "You little brat, you're going to be the death of me! Are you looking for a fight?!" Master Shuiyun wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with eyes blazing.

  After finishing speaking, he didn't waste any more words. A chill ran through his palms as he glared fiercely at Yi Chi and charged over, his eyes blazing with anger.

  "Ice Attribute Fighting Skill!" Watching his opponent's palms emitting a cold aura, Yi Chi also became serious.

  "Hmph, you think you can take my life? You're not qualified." With a swift movement, Yi Chi dodged the palm strike from Shui Yun and countered with a series of kicks while taunting.

  "Die!!!" It seems that he felt he couldn't outdo Yi Chi, and Shui Yun was also straightforward, directly shouting out the word "die", and another wave of palm shadows struck out.

  After narrowly avoiding danger several times, Yi Chi also stopped trying to force a hard fight, comparing aura and whatnot. It was clear that he wasn't his opponent's match, so why bother using his own weaknesses to compare with the other person's strengths?

  "Awesome!"

  His legs, a blur of movement, kicked out hundreds of times in the span of a few breaths, using his violent momentum to directly pressure Water Cloud. Taking advantage of the speed of 'Wind God Leg', Yi Chi began moving around Water Cloud's surroundings, leaving behind a string of afterimages, and Water Cloud was also made to lose her temper by Yi Chi.

  "Bastard, if you have the guts, let's fight face to face." Shui Yun cursed angrily.

  Yi Chi's sudden dodges and occasional sneak attacks made the battle quite lively.

  After hearing Shuiyun's words, Yi Chi remained unmoved and continued to sneak attack from time to time, resolutely refusing to confront her head-on.

  "You... damn it!!" Shui Yun was a burst of anger.

  What was supposed to be an easy assassination had turned into a situation where she was being toyed with by her opponent. From the moment she was ambushed, she had been on the defensive, and it was utterly infuriating for Water Cloud. To make matters worse, her opponent was just a lowly one-star Dou Shi! How could this be?!

  Ignoring the gloomy Water Cloud on one side, Yi Chi was extremely happy, of course, he also had a new understanding of the top-notch masters. Don't look at how happy and real he is now, but in fact, the substantial harm to Water Cloud only happened during the first attack. Even if Yi Chi's actual strength was much stronger than his apparent strength, facing that huge level gap, it was still difficult to achieve anything.

  "Is that all? I'm really not resigned to it!" Yi Chi said with a regretful face, looking at the water cloud that was being surrounded by him.

  "Little brat, you've successfully enraged me! Come and die!" Unbeknownst to him, the Water Cloud who had been surrounded by Yi Chi's attacks all along was now completely furious, his eyes seeming as if they could spew out fire.

  "This is bad, this guy is going crazy!" Feeling the abnormal elemental fluctuations around him, Yi Chi also tensed up. Of course, if he wanted to run, then Shui Yun would never be able to catch up, but don't forget where they were right now.

  There are still two people living in the rooms around this courtyard, and it just so happens that these two people are very important to Yi Chi, he can't ignore their lives.

  "Come on, you old hag, if you've got the guts, come after me!" After some thought, Yi Chi could only think of diverting this lunatic who was about to blow up.

  While speaking, Yi Chi also kicked Shui Yun fiercely with one foot. Of course, it was still blocked by her, but Yi Chi also successfully achieved his own purpose.

  No.

  Yi Jian Yi Chi wanted to run away, but Shui Yun Li Ma followed him.

  Only two figures were seen moving quickly and running out of Yi's mansion towards the direction of the West City Gate.
