It was originally a spur of the moment idea, and if he had not been disturbed, he would not have come out to hide, but who knew that it would be so strange.
The pale white face seemed to have appeared out of thin air, compared to a normal person's face, it was at least twice the size, and under the weak light from the workshop, the facial features could be seen clearly.
It was just that the eyes were extremely strange, like layers of rings, the ancients said that the eyes represented reincarnation, the pale white lines in the eyes seemed to have the power of reincarnation, with the intention of sucking people in, it was as strange as it could get.
The one who came did not have good intentions, the one with good intentions did not come.
Yan Li's eyes turned cold, he did not expect that LianHai Chang Jin would scheme against him.
Before he could think any further, a shrill sound of something tearing through the air suddenly came from the workshop. Seven or eight arrows shot out from different directions, filled with soul-chasing and life-taking notes.
He suddenly bent his back, the arrows formed a crisscrossing net, passing through his abdomen, and deeply embedded into the building opposite him.
A sudden gust of cold wind came from the darkness on his left, causing his hairs to stand, he used his hands to support himself, and leapt backwards, leaping onto the roof.
Turning around, he saw a sword aura slicing past, if he had not dodged quickly, he would have been decapitated.
A shadow floated past with the sword aura, and he could faintly see the same ghost face in the darkness.
Ghost face?
Cold sweat immediately drenched his back, the ghost face in the darkness had disappeared.
After experiencing countless life and death battles, he did not even think as he leapt forward.
Because the workshop was made of a single story building, the roof was narrow, with this leap, he actually leapt back to his original position. A bone-chilling sound came from the ground behind him, as if someone was mincing meat. Broken debris flew in all directions.
The killing moves followed, Yan Li did not even have the time to turn around to see what was making the sound. With great difficulty, he stabilized his body, the shrill piercing sound came out from the workshop again.
Yan Li raised his eyebrows, Li Ya unsheathed, at the same time he waved his sword, his body leapt forward, the sharp arrows were cut in half by him, and at the same time, his body broke through the door of the workshop.
With the first arrow, he had used the trajectory of the arrows to determine the position of the archers, in a life and death battle, the most feared were arrows, and he had to take care of them first.
Bang!
The door of the workshop was broken into several pieces. Yan Li took the opportunity to roll and pounce over the obstacles. Sure enough, there was an archer who was fleeing in panic. The Leaving Cliff Sword pierced through the archer's back. The archer screamed and fell to the ground, clutching his chest. Just as he was about to die, he suddenly seemed to have a sudden burst of energy. He abandoned his longbow and took out a dagger. He spun around and pounced on Yan Li, his face filled with determination and coldness.
Killing one as a scapegoat, killing two would be profitable. Most desperadoes were like this.
Yan Li only needed to look at their posture to know that this group of people were the same as the ones who had ambushed him at the city gate the other day. They were all gangsters.
These people came from different backgrounds, but they all had one thing in common. Basically, they were all fugitives. They did business without any capital, which was easy for them. Occasionally, they would play the role of a killer, killing people and setting fires. They always had their heads in their hands. They were criminals who ran around everywhere.
Although they all belonged to the underworld, this underworld was not the underworld. The difference was that they were hired thugs, while people like Yu Xingzhi belonged to an "organization" of thugs.
The underworld was no longer the usual villain. It was undoubtedly a tight and large organization. Yu Xingzhi was a core member, but there were countless peripheral members who depended on it to survive.
Some people said that the headquarters of the underworld was in Black Mountain, but even Yan Li did not know the location of this Black Mountain.
In the blink of an eye, Yan Li twisted his wrist. As he drew his sword, he took the opportunity to cut off the wrist of the person holding the dagger.
That person was holding on with his last breath. With his wrist cut off, he could no longer feel anything. He fell to the ground and died.
Yan Li's body turned into a shadow. The guys who were hiding in the workshop and shooting arrows were all killed by him in a few breaths.
Now that he was a Rank-4 martial artist, his Qi was all over his body. His physique and agility were greatly improved. The strongest of these people were only Rank-6. They were no match for him.
Yan Li killed the last person. Just as he was about to pull his sword out of the person's body, a big hole appeared in the roof with a "boom". Then there was the sound of chains. Two silver objects fell from the sky.
He wanted to test the opponent's strength, so he sheathed Leaving Cliff and activated the Heart Cleansing Formula.
In the next moment, the sharp sound of metal colliding and rubbing rang out. What Leaving Cliff had blocked were actually two bowl-shaped gears the size of a washbasin. The periphery was a vertical sharp knife, and the two sides were connected to a chain as thick as a wrist. There was a roulette-shaped metal insert at the link. It was actually an extremely rare weapon, the flying guillotine.
The gears spun at high speed with a "squeak". The sharp knife kept cutting at Leaving Cliff's sheath. Sparks flew everywhere. Yan Li finally saw the owner of the ghostly face.
On the roof, a person was completely covered in a black robe. Only his arms were exposed, and his head was holding the chain. With the help of the light in the workshop, Yan Li discovered that the ghostly face was actually a mask.
Judging from the strength of this attack, this person was at least a Rank-3 martial artist.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew in from the main door.
Yan Li's heart trembled. It was another ghostly face. However, Leaving Cliff was trapped by the flying guillotine and could not be pulled out. If he abandoned his sword and ran, he would undoubtedly be seeking his own death.
With the sword in hand, he could still fight for a chance.
He tried his best to lean his body back. Sure enough, a sword appeared out of thin air. Like a ghost, it silently pierced through Yan Li's chest. The attachment of vitality made the sword incomparably sharp. His chest was cut open, and fresh blood quickly dyed his chest red.
The sword could not be pulled back, and the second ghostly face appeared. It was a man of average height. The eyes behind the ghostly face shone with a sharp light.
Fortunately, this dodge gave Yan Li a rare chance to catch his breath. He forcefully pushed the flying guillotine away and quickly retreated a few steps, avoiding the sword's second horizontal slash.
Judging from the strength of the attacks, these two were Rank-3 martial artists. A series of fatal attacks were linked. If he had not been through hundreds of battles, he would have been lying on the ground now, a corpse.
However, the situation was still critical. It was almost impossible for a Rank-4 martial artist to survive the joint attack of two Rank-3 martial artists.
Yan Li was very clear about this, so after he stood still, he quickly said, "Wait! If you're here for revenge, you should at least let me know when I've offended you two … "
"When did I offend you?" The ghostly face of the person on the roof revealed a malicious smile. "Yan Li, I can't wait to eat your flesh and gnaw on your bones …"
Yan Li judged from the lineup of ambushers that they were not professional assassins. They were probably here for revenge.
This confirmed his guess and he searched back and forth in his mind.
However, he had offended too many people in Yong Ling. The Xiao Sect and the Martial God Mansion's underworld were each more terrifying and powerful than the last. Which one of them did not want to kill him?
"So that's why. They don't dare to use their full strength because they're afraid of exposing their identities?" Yan Li sneered. He was very sensitive to people's hearts and understood their concerns with a little thought.
The impact of the second round of the internal examination had already been seen.
Although he had teamed up with Tang Sanghua, Wang Yuanqing and Xiao Sibai were not easy to deal with, especially Xiao Sibai. His family's "Divine Waterfall Sword Art" was known to everyone in the world.
Xiao Sibai's death, needless to say, would be blamed on Yan Li, who had the most tokens. At the very least, he was the first suspect.
Therefore, Yan Li's identity became very mysterious and attracted attention from all sides. Most importantly, some people were guessing whether or not he was hiding some kind of ultimate skill.
This was the reason why the two Rank-3 martial artists were afraid.
Presumably, they had concerns about not exposing their identities and were afraid of being exposed by Yan Li, so they didn't dare to use their full strength.
However, there was still one question that Yan Li could not figure out. Lianhai Changjin should not be a villain who did not speak his mind. The ambush here was very strange. Could it be that he had been used? Or that this blackhead shark was bait.
But the incident with the blackhead shark had happened before the internal examination. Could it be that they had the foresight to bury this bait before the internal examination? This was unimaginable.
The ghost masked man on the roof laughed harshly and said, "I'll let you guess, but I'm afraid it won't help even if you guess. — — Kill him! "
He leapt and landed in the workshop. The flying guillotine connected to the chain spun madly, making a "wu wu wu" sound that was as frightening as a ghost's cry.
Silver light streaked through the air. The flying guillotine turned into two silver meteors and went straight for Yan Li's left and right blind spots.
At the same time, the ghost-masked man behind him stomped his feet on the ground and leaped up like an owl before disappearing like a ghost. Obviously, hiding was his forte.
Yan Li gritted his teeth and took an extreme risk to turn sideways to avoid the flying guillotine and land on the black chain. At the same time, he changed the circulation of his Yuan Qi from the Heart Cleansing Mantra to the second style of Green Lotus. He had already turned into a shadow.
The man had already expected this. He smiled cruelly and flipped his right wrist. The chain clanked and rose and fell like surging waves. It also twisted and turned like a spirit snake, trapping Yan Li in midair before he could react.
At the same time, he suddenly pulled back his left wrist and the silver flying guillotine whined back. Its target was the back of Yan Li's neck.
If he was hit, he would definitely end up with his head and body separated.
Seeing that he could not escape, a shadow suddenly flashed out of the hole in the roof of the workshop and violently collided with the flying guillotine. It knocked it away and untied the chain on Yan Li's body.
"Master Zhan?" Yan Li was slightly surprised.
"You idiot, don't you know your situation?" Zhan Mu scolded angrily. "You actually ran out in the middle of the night. If I didn't have nothing to do and followed behind you, I'd see how you die!"
The void sword power condensed. Yan Li did not have time to reply. After landing on the ground, he suddenly rolled forward and avoided the sneak attack of the other ghost masked man. Before he could steady himself, another person fell out of the hole in the roof. It was Chang Shan.
He wielded his sword and faced the ghost masked man who had used the flying guillotine.
"Hmph, I'm his subordinate now. I have no choice. Don't think that I'm sincerely trying to save you!" In the fierce battle, he did not forget to explain.
"Go!" Seeing that two experts had appeared one after the other, there was no hope of killing Yan Li. He instantly wanted to retreat.
That person used Chang Shan to retreat and escaped through the hole in the roof.
The other person's sneak attack failed and tried to escape through the door, but Zhan Mu had already stopped him.
