Hidden Weapon Expert

So this bastard lived in Luoyang City. Truly, searching everywhere in vain only to find it without any effort!

Ye Weiming chuckled darkly, called to Ah Huang, and silently followed after him.

Back then, this guy had talked him into entering the wolf den that was the Divine Constable Bureau. Though he later discovered that the wolf den's benefits were actually pretty good, and he had used the skills learned there to thrive in the game.

That still did not mean he had completely let go of his resentment toward Soy Milk Xiaobai.

So, you're selling soy milk, are you?

For an NPC as shamelessly crooked as you, I refuse to believe there's nothing wrong with the quality of your soy milk!

I'm an imperial law enforcement officer now. You'd better not let me catch you with any dirt on you, or excuses won't save you. Today, I'm checking your food hygiene standards.

Hehehe...

As he gleefully plotted, Ye Weiming followed Soy Milk Xiaobai out through the city gate. After walking for some distance, Soy Milk Xiaobai turned onto a fork in the road. Ye Weiming checked the map and saw that it led to Peony Village.

Ye Weiming remembered that Peony Village, like Dukang Village, was one of the beginner villages near Luoyang City.

Was this bastard heading to Peony Village to sell his inferior soy milk, or to trick more innocent players into jumping into the Divine Constable Bureau's wolf den?

The game had been running for quite some time now. Were there really still pure newbie players who had yet to join a sect?

At that moment, Soy Milk Xiaobai ahead of him turned onto a narrow woodland path. Ye Weiming hurriedly quickened his pace, but by the time he entered the woods, that bastard had already vanished.

Looking at the empty forest, Ye Weiming could not help frowning slightly.

That bastard could really run!

Just as Ye Weiming was considering whether to go directly to Peony Village and wait for him there.

Suddenly!

A warning surged in his heart.

Sensing danger approaching, Ye Weiming fiercely pushed off the ground with the tip of his foot and Sidestepped more than ten feet in an instant.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!..."

At the same time Ye Weiming dodged, several hidden weapons came raining down at him. One even grazed past his body, nearly drawing blood on the spot.

Once he steadied himself, Ye Weiming swiftly drew his sword and turned around, looking up in the direction the hidden weapons had come from. Several more cold flashes met his eyes, shrouding the vital points all over his body. The hidden weapons came with such force, speed, and tricky angles that, while they could not compare to the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, they were far beyond what Youyou could achieve with an ordinary hand crossbow!

Ye Weiming did not dare let his guard down. The Green Bamboo Sword swept horizontally and chopped vertically in his hand. It appeared fierce and sharp, yet it defended him so thoroughly that not even wind or rain could penetrate. Moreover, the blade of the Green Bamboo Sword was naturally emerald green like bamboo. Once wielded, it resembled a bamboo basket that completely enveloped him. No matter how fierce or tricky the opponent's hidden weapons were, every one of them was knocked down by his sword edge. Not a single one could cross the line!

"Clang! Clang! Clang!..."

All kinds of hidden weapons fell like raindrops, yet none could come close under the defense of Dragon-Phoenix Dance. Relying on Dragon-Phoenix Dance's defensive power, Ye Weiming charged through the barrage to the small tree where his opponent was hiding. Using the tree trunk to obstruct his opponent's angle of attack, he suddenly switched from defense to offense. The Green Bamboo Sword swept out, severing the bowl-thick tree cleanly in two at its waist!

Yet his opponent seemed to have anticipated this move. The instant Ye Weiming struck with his sword, the black figure flashed from the tree and leaped from the crown of the small tree Ye Weiming had cut down to the tip of another tree.

Then, another dense rain of hidden weapons poured down.

What impressive lightness skill! What formidable Hidden Weapon Technique!

After fighting for so long, Ye Weiming had not even caught sight of his opponent's face. That alone showed that this newcomer was an exceptionally troublesome opponent.

What Ye Weiming did not know was that while he was surprised, the other party was even more shocked!

The ambusher considered himself one of the game's experts. Though he had never openly declared himself the Tang Clan's strongest player, he truly believed it in his heart. Even that girl called Youyou, who had recently risen to prominence, had merely gotten lucky and completed a hidden quest in his view. In terms of actual strength, she was certainly no match for him.

Yet with his exquisite Hidden Weapon Technique, after attacking for so long, he had actually failed to break through this guy's three-foot sword radius?

Who exactly was this guy, and what sword technique was he using?

With this impenetrable defensive swordsmanship alone, it would not be an exaggeration to call him the nemesis of every Tang Clan player!

It seemed he had to be extra cautious in today's battle!

As he pondered, the ambusher switched through several different Hidden Weapon Techniques in succession, only for every single one to be blocked by Ye Weiming. Meanwhile, Ye Weiming braved the barrage and arrived beside the small tree where his opponent was hiding. But before he could swing his sword, the black figure atop the tree once again used lightness skill to leap toward another small tree.

Ye Weiming had long anticipated this move. The Green Bamboo Sword he had raised did not slash down. Instead, he exerted force with both feet and shot forward almost at the same time as his opponent. Relying on Eight-Step Toad Leap's superior movement speed on flat ground, he arrived beneath the small tree where his opponent was about to land a step ahead of him. With a sweep of the Green Bamboo Sword, the trunk was cut in two at the waist.

The ambusher had not expected Ye Weiming to pull off such a prescient move. If he had been a true martial arts master, even with the small tree cut down, he could still have borrowed force to leap elsewhere. But that was simply not something players at this stage could accomplish. Even Ye Weiming, who could gain proficiency from the dead, could not do it, much less him.

His footing slipped, and the ambusher fell straight down from the tree trunk. Ye Weiming, already prepared, shook the Green Bamboo Sword and thrust directly at the other man's heart as he fell.

It was the most fierce killing move in Moon Maiden Swordplay—Xi Shi Holding Heart!

However, the ambusher was no pushover either. At the critical moment, he abruptly flung both hands out, sending a full ten hidden weapons straight at Ye Weiming's face. Two of them targeted the vital points of his throat and brow.

Ye Weiming now faced a choice. If he continued this thrust without changing its trajectory, he could certainly badly wound his opponent. With the stacked attribute bonuses of the Green Bamboo Sword, Moon Maiden Swordplay, Tai Shan's Secret, and his calculation abilities, it would definitely deal an enormous critical hit. But in that case, he would also have to take the opponent's hidden weapons head-on, including two critical hits to vital points.

Should he withdraw his sword and defend, or let them both suffer?

That was the question!

Yet at this life-or-death moment, he did not hesitate in the slightest. The Green Bamboo Sword in his hand continued unchanged as it stabbed toward the opponent's heart.

If they were both going down, then so be it. Ye Weiming had absolute confidence in his Attack Power.

If they traded wounds, the one who fell in the end definitely would not be him!
