Fighting to the Death! Severed Arm!

"Where did this idiot come from..."

Ye Li couldn't be bothered to acknowledge the interrogation from behind!

His trait wasn't [Master of Ninjutsu], so he didn't possess the ability to endure insults with a smile!

Since the relationship had been dead from the start, he would just treat him like a stray dog on the side of the road and ignore him completely!

This Li Xi was courting death!

If he had the ability in the future, he would definitely kick this Li Xi to death!

Thinking this, Ye Li turned his head silently, looked at the sullen-faced youth in front of him, and walked past him toward the door without a word.

But at this moment, Ye Li's indifference was like a fine needle, piercing the anger Li Xi had been accumulating for some time.

"I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"

A roar came from behind. Li Xi lunged forward, his right hand hooked like a claw, grabbing toward Ye Li's rear shoulder joint with a gust of sinister wind!

The finger wind was sharp; it was clearly an exquisite move from the Mara Hand designed to dislocate bones!

"You peasant, you've been missing for days while practicing martial arts—do you have some shameful secret?"

"Once I capture you, everything will be clear!"

Li Xi's tone hid uncontrollable rage, but even more so, it was the fury of being surpassed by a lower-class person he usually looked down upon!

Although Ye Li had his back to him, he had already been on guard since he saw the other party approaching.

His shoulder muscles tensed like iron, and as if he had eyes in the back of his head, he swept his arm backward!

"Snap!"

Arm and claw collided fiercely, emitting a dull sound of flesh hitting flesh.

Li Xi felt a massive force surge toward him; his finger bones shook violently, and his body swayed slightly.

Ye Li used the momentum to lunge forward half a step and turned around abruptly, his eyes as cold and piercing as a frozen pool.

If this were online, Ye Li would usually deal with haters using "troll-baiting" and a "block and mute" hit-and-run tactic.

But this was a conflict happening in reality.

I just practiced martial arts! Can I be bullied by you?

I'll beat you until Feng goes flying!

Without a word, he answered with his fists!

He pushed off the ground, leaving a shallow indentation on the blue brick floor with a "crack," and his body shot out like an arrow!

His right fist was clenched tight, his tendons and bones popping, and with a whistle that tore through the air, he struck straight at Li Xi's face!

Li Xi's pupils shrank, and his [Quick Eyes and Swift Hands] trait was pushed to its limit!

His thinking accelerated in a flash, capturing the trajectory.

He leaned back violently, dodging the fist wind by a hair's breadth; the edge of the fist grazed the tip of his nose, the resulting force scraping his skin until it stung.

"Boom!"

Ye Li's fist smashed heavily into the wall behind Li Xi!

The hard bricks cracked upon impact, and gravel splattered everywhere!

A clear fist print was left behind.

"This lowly peasant... he actually dared to lay a hand on me!"

Disbelief flashed in Li Xi's eyes; he hadn't expected the peasant to actually dare to resist!

If he hadn't dodged that punch just now, it wouldn't have been a simple matter of a bruised nose and swollen face.

"This guy's trait is... [Quick Eyes and Swift Hands]!"

"No wonder he could dodge my punch!"

Since a conflict had arisen, Ye Li was naturally not the type to sit and wait for death.

Knowing himself and his enemy, he had already asked Wang Xian and Zhao Yan about the other party's traits.

As he struck, the characteristics of Li Xi's trait already surfaced in Ye Li's mind.

[Quick Eyes and Swift Hands · Green]: Thinking and reaction speed increased by 50%; one can react to everything with a more agile mind than an ordinary person!

In the early stages, this trait was more versatile in combat, comprehension, and daily life than the [Exceptional Agility] Ye Li was faking.

However, this trait was not without side effects.

For instance, those who possessed this trait were often impatient and had little tolerance for interpersonal interactions!

In the time Li Xi perceived just now, he had patiently waited for Ye Li for seven or eight seconds, but this guy had been slow and deliberate, intentionally ignoring him the whole time, which really made his blood boil!

Ye Li's thoughts spun for only a moment before Li Xi's counterattack began.

"You're looking for death!"

Li Xi barked, his center of gravity sinking instantly, his legs rooting into the ground like an old tree.

Using the momentum of his dodge, he did not retreat but instead surged forward. His body dipped in a bizarre fashion, and his arms shot out like two venomous serpents leaving their den, fingers curled into claws, aiming straight for the kidneys on both sides of Ye Li's waist!

This move was called, Monkey Scoops the Moon!

If it connected, the finger strength would be enough to crush the kidneys and cripple Ye Li!

A fierce wind rushed toward his face, and a bone-chilling cold radiated from his vital ribs!

Ye Li was startled. His right leg whipped up like a steel lash, unleashing a vicious Heart-Piercing Kick without warning, aimed straight at Li Xi's chest and abdomen!

Legs have more reach than arms! Though this kick was launched later, it was faster and carried the crushing weight of a mountain!

If Li Xi did not dodge, forget scooping the moon—his entire body would be kicked straight into the wall!

"Hmph!"

Seeing this, Li Xi was forced to change his move mid-stream.

Quick Eyes and Swift Hands allowed him to easily capture Ye Li's intent.

Putting force into his waist, his body spun to the side like a top!

Ye Li's Heart-Piercing Kick whistled past his lapel and slammed heavily into the wall, causing another burst of masonry to shatter.

Having dodged the kick, the look of malice in Li Xi's eyes intensified.

He suddenly thrust his hands forward, shifting from the scoop to the Peach Crusher.

This mid-move transition sent a sudden chill across Ye Li's crotch, forcing him to slam his hands downward!

To Li Xi's astonishment, Ye Li precisely pinned his own arms, narrowly deflecting the strike by half an inch from his groin.

Blocked again? How is this possible! Could this guy's reaction speed be even faster than mine?

Thoughts flashed through Li Xi's mind like lightning, but he could not afford to be distracted during the fight.

Instinctively, his arms moved like serpents flicking their tongues, soft and boneless in the air, tracing two arcs as they bit toward Ye Li's left eye and throat.

The former would blind, the latter would kill—both were lethal strikes!

But Ye Li was prepared. His arms stood as thick and solid as city walls, meeting the attack with his hardened elbows.

"Bang! Crack!"

Two sharp sounds rang out almost simultaneously!

The first was the dull thud of impact!

The second was the faint sound of bone fracturing as Li Xi's finger joints failed to withstand the immense force!

"Argh!"

Li Xi screamed, his fingers throbbing with piercing pain as his offensive collapsed instantly.

But would Ye Li let this fleeting opportunity slip away?

With a face as cold as a blade, he used his hands like eagle claws to seize Li Xi's broken wrists, pulling and twisting them upward with a violent jerk!

"Click!"

The teeth-grinding sound of bone dislocation rang out clearly!

Li Xi's arms were twisted behind his back by Ye Li at an incredibly distorted angle!

The immense pain made Li Xi's vision go black, and his body involuntarily bent forward.

"Kneel!"

Ye Li's low, sharp shout was like a thunderclap!

His left knee rose abruptly, like a siege hammer, carrying a thousand jin of force as it slammed into the base of Li Xi's spine!

An irresistible force poured through his body like molten iron.

"Thud!"

The overwhelming power surged through him from top to bottom!

Li Xi's legs felt as if they had been struck by a heavy hammer; his knee joints groaned under the unbearable pressure, and unable to hold on any longer, they buckled, slamming him hard onto the solid ground!

Humiliation!

More torturous than the pain was the humiliation of kneeling!

He, a proud son of heaven, had been forced to his knees by a mere peasant!

He was kneeling in humiliation to a peasant he hadn't even deigned to look at before?

Before he could recover from the cruelty of reality, he felt a sharp, stabbing pain in his arms, and the pressure from Ye Li's right leg continued to increase.

"You... what do you want to do!"

Li Xi cried out in terror, but Ye Li couldn't be bothered to waste words. He grabbed the man's arms and stomped down with his left leg.

"Snap—"

Accompanied by an unbearable scream, the joints of Li Xi's arms were torn apart, leaving his limbs hanging limp like a dead dog whose spine had been pulled out.

Only then did Ye Li truly relax.

In just a few short breaths, his entire back was drenched in cold sweat.

Having lived in modern society for over twenty years, he had never engaged in such a life-or-death struggle; even with mental preparation, he still felt uneasy.

The physical gap between the two was not outrageously wide, but his opponent had the advantage of medicinal pills, dual cultivation of martial arts, and trait-assisted combat.

If Ye Li had only focused on improving his physical fitness, there would truly be a risk of flipping the car.

He cast his gaze upon the panel:

Nine Chapters Fist Manual(3/500)

This martial art, handed to him by Instructor Feng to pair with the [Exceptional Agility] trait for combat, contained a vast array of detailed moves.

Although he did not possess [Exceptional Agility].

But having practiced it only twice in a rough manner, thanks to [World-Shocking Wisdom], every fighting style and killing move was etched into his mind, impossible to forget, as if they were instinct.

While his responses were crude and slightly rushed, his opponent was no martial arts master either.

Two smiling tigers, two Black-Horned Sharks—it was a fitting match!

Almost the moment Li Xi raised his hand, Ye Li instinctively launched a counterattack.

In terms of reaction speed, he was not inferior to his opponent, who possessed a green trait.

Glancing at the chaotic room, Ye Li pondered for a moment before, under Li Xi's wide-eyed stare, turning toward the other's bed.

This guy is a second-generation martial artist; I might as well scavenge a couple of Body Tempering Pills from his bed to eat.

But I still need to think about how to deal with the Law Enforcement Hall people when they arrive.
