First Break the Sword, Then the Head

Originally, Yu Ye was a bit resistant when she heard Master's plan. After all, she really didn't have any experience in this kind of affair and was afraid that she might say the wrong thing and ruin Master's plan.

Crazy Night really wanted to participate, but unfortunately, Yu Ye didn't give her the chance.

The room on the right contained a remote-controlled player that Ji Qinglin had asked a vendor to book and place in the room in advance. From beginning to end, there was no one in the room on the right.

After equipping the weapons and armor that might be needed, Yu Ye looked at the Poison Caltrops being loaded into the Taser and asked:

"Master, it might have been a two-on-one situation, isn't it a bit unethical to use this kind of thing?"

"Ethics are for the living. If you feel guilty, you can apologize to the corpse after you kill him."

So, after letting the Coal Boss confirm that Duan Tianpeng was in the room, the two Masters and disciples began their "a great Master produces a great disciple" act.

Duan Tianpeng was, after all, a thief who had been around for so long. Although he was bound as he jumped out of the window, and Treading Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms came breaking through the wind, he didn't lose his composure despite the shock.

He hurriedly tapped the wall with his feet to flash to the side, barely dodging a kick aimed straight at his throat.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the calf that brushed past him actually hooked back and kicked him in the shoulder. The black figure then borrowed strength to flip over and kick down, slamming heavily towards the top of Duan Tianpeng's head.

With his arms bound, Duan Tianpeng couldn't cope with this sudden change of move, so he had to shift his head and use his shoulder to take the hit.

Bang—

With a muffled sound, the black figure slammed Duan Tianpeng heavily to the ground. As Duan Tianpeng's feet landed, cracks appeared in the surrounding ground.

Noticing that the opponent was a woman, Duan Tianpeng thought he could take this move in the air, but he didn't expect the power of this changed kick to be no less than Treading Snow to Seek Plum Blossoms.

As the two landed, Duan Tianpeng could see the other party's appearance clearly. As expected, it was the handsome female disciple from Ji's General Store, wearing a black tight-fitting suit, staring at him with a cold and unwavering gaze, seemingly not intending to talk.

In the alley, apart from climbing to the roof, there were only two paths, front and back. Duan Tianpeng's path forward was blocked by Yu Ye, and the path behind required passing by that general store.

He didn't quite believe that the Master and disciple who had set up this trap hadn't arranged any obstacles near their general store.

Moreover, Duan Tianpeng felt a sense of soreness and numbness starting to come from his right hand. If it were normal times, he wouldn't care, but the poison he had been inflicted with at the President's house in West Chang District hadn't been completely removed yet. Being poisoned now was like adding frost to snow, and dragging it out would only become more and more disadvantageous to him.

With this in mind, Duan Tianpeng, having broken free from the ropes, stomped his hind foot and rushed straight towards Yu Ye with his figure flickering.

Also using Intercept Cloud Step, Yu Ye understood that Duan Tianpeng was much more skilled than her, and she couldn't see his attack position at all.

Fortunately, with her understanding, she could at least determine the distance of the attack. So, when Duan Tianpeng came in front of her, Yu Ye used Intercept Cloud Step in reverse, taking two steps back to dodge the opponent's fierce attack, and then pushed out with Mountain-Pushing Palm.

But unexpectedly, Duan Tianpeng, who had rushed so aggressively to her, didn't think about winning with one blow. While dodging Yu Ye's attack, he stepped on Yu Ye's arm with one foot, his figure rising into the air, stepping on the wall and flying straight towards the top of the alley.

Ji Qinglin had also shown Yu Ye the move analysis of Flying Curtain Kick before the battle, but she was still a little surprised when she encountered it for the first time. This was simply no different from taking off into the air.

Yu Ye had no choice but to follow with Ladder Cloud Leap, but her speed was obviously a bit slower. Helpless, she charged up her right palm and sent a Vein Sealing Seal towards Duan Tianpeng's back.

Duan Tianpeng fled for his life, but he also paid attention to the situation of his opponent below at all times, flashing to avoid the flying palm print.

Thinking that this guy was really difficult to deal with, if he were hit by another move, he probably wouldn't be able to escape. Thinking this, he threw two iron gallbladders from his backpack towards the wall.

As the iron gallbladders left his hand, Duan Tianpeng quickly put on the hood of his hoodie, striking a pose of a real man never looking back at explosions.

Bang—

Smoke burst out, and dozens of tiny steel needles also shot out in all directions.

Yu Ye below naturally saw it more clearly than Duan Tianpeng. Seeing this guy take out something and throw it on the wall, she immediately flashed to avoid it and took out the electromagnetic telescopic sword from her waist to deflect the ejected needles.

Before coming, Ji Qinglin had reminded her that if they were dealing with ordinary sect Qi Practitioners, they naturally wouldn't need to prepare so many tools, but these thieves were best at escaping, so they had to be careful of them reaching back or throwing out some strange things.

Looking back and seeing that the girl hadn't chased after him, Duan Tianpeng also felt relieved. The sky above the alley was also becoming wider.

But as soon as he reached the top, he found that the young Master of the general store was standing in front of the broken glass window, looking at him with a "I've been waiting for you for a long time" expression.

Duan Tianpeng knew that this person was definitely more difficult to deal with, so he kicked out in the air, his body moving closer to the building on the other side.

Thinking that this guy's movement was no worse than his own, but as long as he could get out of the alley, then he could shuttle through the rooftops to escape. Duan Tianpeng was confident that as long as the Nine Heroes didn't show up, no one would be able to catch him.

Duan Tianpeng jumped upwards, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw the young Master also jumping up quickly, while simultaneously flicking his right arm upwards.

Before Duan Tianpeng could figure out what was going on, just as his head stretched out of the top of the alley, he felt something wrap around his right leg. His body paused in the air for a moment, and then he was quickly pulled downwards. The spacious sky above instantly constricted.

The Nano Machine Swarm "Mo Attack" was not only highly malleable, Ji Qinglin had also basically figured out how to use this thing while practicing his skills these days. At this time, the Mo Attack in his hand had turned into a black whip, wrapped around Duan Tianpeng's leg, and directly pulled him down from above.

Pulled down, Duan Tianpeng immediately adjusted his body, seeing Ji Qinglin below him sending a Baji Collapse towards him as he flew down.

Knowing that dodging was impossible in this situation, Duan Tianpeng thought of repeating his old trick, using one foot to receive the opponent's attack and then borrowing the force to escape.

But when the two collided, Duan Tianpeng immediately realized that he might not be able to repay the power contained in this move.

Boom—

As the Baji Collapse struck him, Duan Tianpeng felt a wall of air pressing his entire body out, giving him no chance to change the force.

Bang—

With a sound close to tearing through the air, Duan Tianpeng's body flew out like a tennis ball, hitting the opposite wall. The only difference was that he didn't bounce back.

This was the first time Ji Qinglin had used Baji Collapse on someone, and because he was afraid Duan Tianpeng would run away, he didn't hold back at all.

"Ugh!"

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Duan Tianpeng knew that the chance of escape was slim, as the meridians in his feet were broken. He decisively drew the custom-made Molecular Blade Soft Sword from his waist, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stared intently at his opponent, wanting to make a last stand.

Seeing this, Ji Qinglin retracted the Mo Attack, which had transformed into a long whip, and also condensed it into a black long sword in his hand.

Duan Tianpeng gritted his teeth, stepped hard on the concave wall, and launched a suicidal horizontal slash at Ji Qinglin, who stepped outward and swung his sword to meet it.

Ding—

At the moment the blades collided, there were no sparks, only a soft sound.

Duan Tianpeng's Molecular Blade Soft Sword cut Ji Qinglin's Mo Attack black long sword in half!

The result of this lightning strike surprised Duan Tianpeng, and hope of escaping instantly ignited in his heart. Just as he was about to turn around and strike back his opponent before fleeing, a black blade silently slashed across his neck.

Duan Tianpeng only felt a chill, and then the scene before him flipped over.

Happy Sunday, everyone!
