The Key Is Tactics

(Second update. An Hei is here to ask everyone for votes. If you have any, please give them to him/her.)

"It's fate, this is fate! Kid, you have a path to heaven but you choose not to, you've chosen the path to hell. Now that the troublesome Ghost King isn't here, let's see who can save you." The hatred in his voice was obvious. White-Brow laughed a few times, then glanced at Zheng Yutong behind Li Wei, and said something that really angered Li Wei.

"Boy, that woman behind you must know you, right? And I can tell she's clearly infatuated with you. So I'll spare your life for now. I want you to witness firsthand how this woman who's fallen for you dies a horrible death right before your eyes."

Having said that, White-Brow, with an arrogant expression, grabbed at the air and a Seven-Star Sword appeared in his hand. Then, he unleashed a sword move, the sword gleaming with a cold light, and thrust it towards Zheng Yutong behind Li Wei.

In White-Brow's view, these ants in front of him posed no threat whatsoever, especially since he had just consumed the Hades Fruit and raised his combat power to S8, which gave White-Brow the ambition to dominate the world.

Indeed, he had reason to be arrogant. Looking at the few people who were currently his enemies, apart from two S4-level individuals, the rest were all S1 and S2. With such combat power, let alone the current White-Brow, even before he consumed the Hades Fruit, he could easily deal with them.

Li Wei's appearance this time greatly pleased White-Brow. Ever since Li Wei appeared in front of him, White-Brow felt like he had been plagued by bad luck, especially after losing face in the Grand Theater. If he didn't kill this kid, White-Brow would never be able to swallow his anger.

However, due to the interference of the Cyan-Faced Ghost King and the host in the theater, he failed to achieve his goal, and he has been resentful ever since. But it seems that heaven is still on his side, and now, White-Brow believes it is time for him to wash away his shame.

Of course, just as he said, White-Brow wouldn't give Li Wei a 'quick' end easily; he wanted to torture him thoroughly. So, after discovering that the woman behind Li Wei seemed to have a connection with him, he immediately turned his attention to her.

Li Wei wasn't about to let him have his way. His face darkened, and he rushed to Zheng Yutong's side. The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and they never expected to meet again in this kind of situation. However, both Li Wei and Zheng Yutong knew that this was not the time to pour out their hearts to each other.

"Yu Tong, I'll have to trouble you for a while. Take refuge in my Copper Pot. Otherwise, I won't be able to fight this old bastard in peace with you here," Li Wei chuckled, exuding an air of nonchalance.

Upon seeing Li Wei, Zheng Yutong was already in a state of utter confusion. Her initial fear had completely vanished, and all she wanted now was to hold Li Wei tightly and never be apart again. However, it was clearly not a suitable occasion.

Hearing Li Wei's words, Zheng Yutong didn't say anything, but simply nodded and said, "Be careful. If you die, I will definitely accompany you on your journey to the underworld."

Li Wei was deeply moved, but he grabbed Zheng Yutong's hand and then used Shifting Forms and Changing Positions to send her into his Copper Pot World.

The White-Brow opposite him was utterly astonished by what he saw. However, as a Dao Venerable of the Limitless Star Sect, he was well-versed in the arts, and this wasn't the first time he had witnessed the other party use this miraculous skill. After a moment's recollection, he exclaimed in surprise, "This... this is spatial power! Where did you get this ability, kid?"

Hearing White-Brow reveal his abilities, Li Wei was extremely surprised, but he didn't bother to respond. Instead, he quickly rushed to Green Conch's side.

"Sister, are you alright?" Upon seeing Green Conch, Li Wei felt a surge of inexplicable emotions. Back then, it was in this Demon-Locking Tower that Green Conch, as a master, had once given him guidance. But now, he had far surpassed her.

Green Conch sheathed her longsword, chuckled as she sized up Li Wei, and then said with a smile, "Don't worry, although that old Daoist has profound cultivation, I'm not someone to be trifled with. As for you, your growth has exceeded my expectations."

Li Wei quickly nodded. "Sister, we'll talk later. You and Yu Tong should go hide in my Copper Pot World for a while. I'll chat with you again after I've dealt with this old bastard."

Green Conch knew exactly what Li Wei was thinking. She also knew the situation was urgent, so she nodded in agreement without saying much. Li Wei quickly took her into the Copper Pot World as well.

"Boy, I'm asking you a question!" The White-Brow Daoist Venerable was furious when he saw Li Wei send the second person away alive.

Clearly, this kid doesn't take him seriously at all.

However, there is no doubt that this kid used spatial power; only such an ability could send someone away in such a bizarre way.

As for the whereabouts of the two people Li Wei sent away, even White-Brow couldn't know. However, he did know that spatial power was one of the most powerful divine powers among the ten great divine powers.

The Ten Divine Powers are legendary even in a Level 7 star field. The first is the Time Power, which is wielded by the current 'Main God', while the Power of Space is ranked second.

It's easy to imagine how alluring this power was to White-Brow. Therefore, his gaze towards Li Wei was filled with even greater greed, while at that moment, Li Wei was already preparing to fly towards Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru.

"Boy, do you think I don't exist?" White-Brow finally flew into a rage, suddenly unleashing a Dao technique. A strange gust of wind suddenly rose up and rushed towards Li Wei.

The latter was blown backward dozens of meters by the strange wind before he could barely regain his footing. At this moment, Li Wei realized that with his combat strength, he was no match for White-Brow at all.

But even if they couldn't win, they had to fight. It wasn't that Li Wei was being stubborn, but he had a reason to deal with White-Brow Mei. In this story world, Li Wei had already met Zheng Yutong and Green Conch, so without a doubt, Nina, Xue Yan, and An Hei should also be there. However, An Hei, so he didn't act with Zheng Yutong. Otherwise, if they had encountered White-Brow this time, there might have been casualties.

That's why Li Wei absolutely cannot let White-Brow go, otherwise the other party might turn against his own companions. Moreover, even if he wanted to let him go, White-Brow wouldn't let him go, would he?

Knowing this clearly, Li Wei simply let go of everything and planned to completely eliminate this destabilizing factor.

As for how to proceed, Li Wei had his own plan. But in any case, this was an extremely dangerous battle, after all, White-Brow was a full four levels higher than him.

Now that White-Brow is on guard, it's wishful thinking for him to try and rescue Li Xiaoyao and Lin Yueru again. Fortunately, Zheng Yutong and Green Conch have reached a safe area, relieving Li Wei of many worries.

"You old bastard, enough nonsense, let's settle this with our skills." Li Wei secretly gave Li Xiaoyao a signal, then took out the Beast Soul Greatsword, rushed over in a few steps, and slashed with the sword.

Seeing the greatsword coming at him, White-Brow neither dodged nor avoided it, but instead sneered, recited an incantation, and raised his hand to grab at the sword's edge.

Normally, if a bare palm were to strike an iron sword, the palm would shatter completely. However, in reality, Li Wei's Beast Soul Greatsword was firmly held by White-Brow.

Seeing that his first move failed, Li Wei released his grip on the sword hilt with both hands and struck out with one palm, which was the 'Extreme Realm' Cloud Piercing Palm.

At the same time, Li Wei made a sword gesture behind his back with his other hand. This double attack, one overt and one covert, clearly indicated that he was going all out.

White-Brow remained silent. Seeing Li Wei's Cloud-Piercing Palm coming at him, he also struck out with his own palm. The two palms collided fiercely, producing a muffled thud.

Li Wei felt a sweetness in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood. In contrast, White-Brow's expression remained unchanged, clearly showing the difference in their strength.

However, Li Wei's backup plan was not revealed. Seeing that White-Brow's hands were both restrained by him, Li Wei had also completed the sword technique behind him.

"Extreme Realm, Myriad Sword Technique"

Li Wei bit his lip, swallowing blood, and shouted out fiercely. Suddenly, a thousand longswords appeared around White-Brow, all with their tips pointing at him. The thousand longswords constantly emitted sword cries and exuded a chilling killing intent.

This move was the same one Li Wei used when he killed the Bull Demon on the Star of Destruction —a close-range, sneak attack to unleash the Myriad Sword Technique.

Facing an enemy whose combat strength is far superior to one's own, advancing openly and honestly is foolish. Only a strategy of fighting at all costs to achieve victory is correct and most applicable.

Li Wei understood this principle well, and since White-Brow was no good either, he naturally wouldn't play the gentlemanly game with him.

Upon seeing the thousand longswords, White-Brow finally changed. The next second, Li Wei changed his sword technique, and the thousand longswords shot towards White-Brow like lightning.

"Won't you get stabbed too if you do that?" White-Brow asked, looking at Li Wei who was so close to him.

Li Wei's subsequent actions provided a good answer to White-Brow's doubts.

Just moments before the longsword pierced through, Li Wei's body was sucked into a black hole, and the next second, he was already a hundred meters away.

White-Brow suddenly realized what was happening, but at that moment, a thousand longswords, imbued with the force of thunder, pierced into his body.

"Great Heaven-Escape Technique, activate!"

White-Brow roared to the sky, and his figure vanished on the spot like a bubble. The thousand long swords seemed to have pierced through him, but in reality, they didn't even touch the hem of White-Brow's clothes.

The White-Brow reappeared, strangely appearing behind Li Wei. He stared at Li Wei with a mocking expression, his disdain evident in his eyes.

"Although my Limitless Star Great Heaven-Escape Technique is not as powerful as spatial energy, it is more than enough to deal with you. Kid, this time, let's see if you live or die."

White-Brow roared angrily, channeling his power into his palms. Clusters of white light gathered on his hands and then struck Li Wei's lower back with lightning speed.

From the White-Brow appeared to the moment he attacked, the whole process was incredibly sudden; no one had expected White-Brow to possess such extraordinary abilities. Li Xiaoyao, watching from afar, shouted "Be careful!" but it was clearly too late.

With a loud 'thud,' Li Wei, unable to dodge in time, was struck hard in the lower back. White-Brow was overjoyed at the sight, but this joy lasted only a moment before he was stunned by what happened next.

Then, 'Li Wei' exploded like a firecracker and disappeared before White-Brow's eyes.
