Layered Moon (3)

"If he reveals his identity, we won't kill him?" Li Yue asked coldly.

"Of course we still have to kill him. Who told him to harass you, show murderous intent towards us, and even draw his sword? People like that must be killed." Ye Lang shook his head.

"Then why did you say so much just now?" Li Yue rolled her eyes at Ye Lang.

"I was just saying, is that not allowed?" Ye Lang retorted.

"..." Li Yue didn't want to talk anymore.

"They're here!" Ye Lang came to Li Yue 'Li Yue side, pulled her to sit in the prominent seat in the middle, and brewed a pot of tea to wait for her. This was to show that he was not afraid of them.

"..."

When those people came in, they were stunned to see Ye Lang and his companion sitting there so leisurely. In their minds, Ye Lang and his companion should have run away long ago.

Not only did they not run away, but they were also sitting so boldly in the middle, which meant that they were waiting for them to arrive.

Where is Mo Lin?

One of them looked at Ye Lang and the other person and asked calmly.

"Huh? Li Yue, they all seem to be experts, unlike those small fry before." Ye Lang glanced at the group and found that they were all very strong experts, at least at the Earth Grade.

This is something we've never encountered before. The Greedy Wolf Legion has experts, but they shouldn't be here now. There must be a special reason why they're here.

"They might be on some mission, or they might be protecting Mo Lin, but Mo Lin just got separated from everyone for some reason, so they're probably afraid of having to take the blame," Li Yue said casually, offering a small guess.

"That's right, we are ordered to protect Mo Lin. We knew you might come here, but we didn't expect you to arrive so quickly." One of them replied, his eyes darting back and forth as he looked at Ye Lang and Li Yue, as if he had some kind of scheme.

"Li Yue, you can't trust this person. They might be stalling for time, waiting for others to arrive. Kill them first," Ye Lang said bluntly.

"..." Those people didn't expect Ye Lang to be so decisive. Even if others had seen through this, they might have said something here and waited for a better opportunity, instead of coming directly like this.

"Alright!" Li Yue nodded, drew her sword, and charged forward.

"Since that's the case, then we'll have no choice but to play along! Brothers, be careful, this Little Devil Girl is very strong, we must join forces to fight her!!" one of them shouted, and then he charged straight at Li Yue with his gun.

The spear generated a strong gust of air, making one feel the power of the spear; if one were to be hit by this spear, the outcome would be tragic.

Li Yue was well aware of this. She suddenly increased her speed, ducked to avoid the spear, and charged forward almost touching the ground, unleashing a thin, Crescent Moon Slash with her sword.

Li Yue's move was somewhat unexpected. Even if others could guess that Li Yue could lean forward, they would never have imagined that her angle was so low, almost parallel to the ground.

Her speed was not slow at all; like a shooting star, she rushed to the person wielding the gun in an instant, and at the same time, her Crescent Moon Slash had already struck.

"!?"

The man wielding the spear stared wide-eyed in surprise, but he knew this was not the time to be surprised. He needed to prepare a defense, a defense that would allow him to escape the sword strike.

Retreat!

Retreat immediately!

At that moment, the man wielding the spear chose to retreat, moving backward at top speed to escape Li Yue's deadly Crescent Moon Slash.

However, at this moment, Li Yue swung her sword again. She wanted to kill the man wielding the gun in front of her, and she wanted to kill him with one blow. This would save her a lot of energy and also reduce the threat.

This time, Li Yue's sword strike was not a new move, but rather an enhancement of the power of the previous strike, increasing both its speed and attack power.

This is Li Yue's upgraded Crescent Moon Slash skill—

Crescent Moon Slash - Layered Moon!

The Overlapping Moon technique combines two Crescent Moon Slash, increasing their speed and allowing for a double attack, thus doubling their power.

"!? This... this is impossible..."

The man wielding the spear watched as the Crescent Moon Slash pierced through his body. Even though he managed to withstand the first strike, he couldn't withstand the second, and his body was thus separated.

At the moment of separation, his upper body rose up, and he could clearly see his lower body still there pushing back, but it was only his lower body.

Chapter Six Unexpected Changes

"!!"

The people present were stunned. They knew Li Yue was strong, but they never imagined that Li Yue could kill a master of the Earth Grade with a single blow.

Even if the person wielding the gun was slightly underestimating his opponent, it would still be difficult to kill him with a single blow. This at least shows that Li Yue's strength is far superior to his.

If that's the case, then what level is Li Yue? Heavenly level? That seems impossible!

However, Li Yue must have surpassed the initial level of the Earth Grade, and may have reached the highest level within the Earth Grade; only someone of that caliber could achieve this.

How old is she? She's already reached this level. How far is she from the Heavenly Realm?

Once they reach the Heavenly level, they will be completely outmatched. There is a huge gap between the Heavenly and Earth Grade. Even the highest level of the Earth Grade is far behind the Heavenly level. As for those of us at the Earth Grade, it goes without saying that we are even less capable.

There are probably fewer than a hundred Heaven-Rank Expert on this continent, all of whom are legendary figures. It's unbelievable that this Little Devil Girl could become one.

They probably didn't know that Li Yue would become a Heavenly-level expert much sooner than they imagined. Even if they had considered this, they would have thought it would be five or six years or more than ten years later, and they would never have imagined it would be so soon.

"Next up are you guys!"

While they were still in shock, Li Yue didn't sit idly by. She directly targeted the weakest person and broke through their defenses. Because of her momentary lapse in concentration, Li Yue easily succeeded. Another Earth Grade expert was eliminated, and the strength of the Greedy Wolf Legion was further reduced.

"Quickly, cooperate, kill her!"

At this moment, the remaining few people stopped being in a daze and no longer hesitated about whether to join forces to attack, because doing so would cost them their lives.

They discovered that even when they joined forces, it seemed to be of little use, because Li Yue's movements were too unpredictable, making it impossible for them to track Li Yue whereabouts.

This movement technique alone makes Li Yue invincible, and as long as she is invincible, she will definitely have a chance to win; she just needs to wait for the opportunity.
