At that moment, even if Atobe could avoid it, his body would not be able to do so.
The paper fan whistled through the air, and he barely had time to raise his arms to block it.
With a whoosh, the fan hit Atobe's arm. At that second, Atobe felt a force coming from his arm, pushing him one step back.
As mentioned earlier, the armor that Atobe was wearing was not bad. Its defense was quite high, and even Si Yanran's dart was blocked by it. At this moment, Tang Size's sweep was as powerful as the attack back then. However, when Atobe was hit by the dart, he was attacked from the back, but this time, he was blocking it from the front. Therefore, he did not think that this attack was that powerful, and the loss of Life Points was not as high as before.
"How is this possible?" Tang Size was extremely surprised. When they had clashed earlier, he had not felt the slightest bit of inner energy from the other party. Logically speaking, there was no need to use inner energy to receive such a blow. The other party's arm should have been fractured. However, this Jin man before him had only taken a small step back. His arms were perfectly fine, and he was unharmed.
"Impossible!" Tang Size refused to believe this, and he rushed forward to attack again.
The young master of the Tang family had been fast since he was young. When he was in his twenties, he had already mastered the 'Grasping Flower Hand' skill. His thirteen moves of the Grasping Flower Hand had thirty-nine variations. They focused on speed, accuracy, agility, dexterity, and danger. Combined with the Tang Sect's unique internal energy and poison, it was like adding wings to a tiger. Even though it was not as powerful as the Shaolin Dragon Claw Hand in terms of direct attack, the Grasping Flower Hand's speed, agility, hidden power, and the poisonous wind that could be carried with it during close combat was one of the best in the martial world, and there was no one who did not fear him.
But … Atobe knew nothing about this.
When Mu Rong Yin told him about the martial world, if she mentioned martial artists, she would only give him their names, nicknames, identities, and the kind of kung fu they were good at. She would not give him information like the person's kung fu style, specialty, and counter. If she told him that, she would not be able to finish it in ten afternoons, much less one afternoon. What's more, this kind of information no longer belonged to the category of "Jianghu general knowledge". It might involve the safety of other people's lives.
Therefore, facing Tang Size's next attack, Atobe reacted normally. From how he saw it, this Young Master Tang was not that powerful. He was not even as powerful as Si Yanran, and his attack power was within the range that he could handle.
In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged dozens of moves. Tang Size's hands moved faster and faster, but the more he fought, the more shocked he became. What kind of skill did this Jin guy have? Facing my fan with his bare hands, he only defended and didn't attack. He also didn't use any internal energy. When the attack hit his body, it was as if it hit some kind of armor … Even if it was the highest level of the [Golden Bell Shield], there was no technique that could be used without Qi, right? Could it be that this brat had copper skin and iron bones?
Suddenly, a silhouette cut in and made three moves in a row. Then, with a feint, an arm shot out and grabbed Tang Size's wrist.
"Young Master Tang." Who else could it be other than Gong Sun Li? He had been watching from the side for a while, and seemed to have noticed something. Thus, he jumped out and stopped the fight between the two. "Is that enough? Can't you see that this Young Hero Jin is trying his best to hold back? If you continue to push him like this and force Young Hero Jin to make his move … Humph, then even I, Gong Sun Li, might not be able to stop him. "
When he said that, Tang Size's mind shuddered. He seemed to have understood something, and he whipped his head around to look at Atobe. "You …" He thought back to the moves that he had used and the opponent's reaction. From the beginning to the end, Atobe stood where he was and did not evade his attacks. He did not move too far, and when he blocked, he did not use any kind of kung fu. He only stretched his arms and legs. "What … what a Broken Sword Chahitsu. I am impressed!"
Tang Size glared at Gong Sun Li and then shook his arm to escape from the latter's grip. He took several steps to stand before Atobe and took out a small square paper bag from his belt. "This is the antidote for the poison in my fan. Please accept it, Young Hero Jin."
Atobe accepted the paper bag with a wooden expression. Actually, when he heard that, he had just noticed that his status in his menu had changed to 'Poisoned'.
"Hmm … thank you." Atobe thanked him out of instinct. He was the only one who did not understand what was going on. In any case, from his perspective, this NPC with the surname Tang … had turned from neutral to hostile without warning, and then from hostile to friendly.
"I am Tang Size. People call me Quick Hands Flower." Tang Size bowed. "I wonder what Young Hero Jin's name is?"
"F * ck! You want me to repeat myself again? What's the point? " Atobe was annoyed internally, but on the surface, he still answered weakly, "Jin Fugui …"
"I have been rude today. If I have offended you, please forgive me, Young Hero Jin," Tang Size replied. As he said this, he glanced at Gong Sun Li and Si Yanran, "If there is a chance in the future, this Tang will seek guidance from Young Hero Jin. Goodbye!" After he said this, he coldly snorted and walked away angrily.
After he left the room, Atobe sighed in relief. He swallowed the antidote and recovered from his abnormal status. Looking at his Life Points, which had dropped to thirty percent, Atobe was speechless.
"Haha … Young Hero Jin's kung fu is indeed extraordinary," Gong Sun Li said. "Facing Tang Size's Flower Pinching Hand, you were able to fight against the speed with slow. Without using internal energy and without using a weapon, you were able to withstand all the attacks.
The skill that you have shown by holding back … goes to show that Young Hero Jin's external kung fu has reached the extreme. With Tang Size's level of internal energy, if he was hit by one of your punches, he would have been crushed on the spot. Humph … That child is laughable. He doesn't know that you are showing him mercy out of kindness. "
"This bunch of martial artists sure have a wild imagination … How did they know I was going easy on him? And how did they come up with such a conclusion?" Atobe grumbled internally. So, when one trained external martial arts to its maximum level, without using any internal energy or skills, one's body would have the defense of an excellent armor? I wonder if someone at this level can block a bullet …
"You flatter me …" Atobe tried his best to maintain a calm expression as he replied. Judging from the current situation, Gongsun Li and Si Yanran would most likely not make a move on him. Thus, he decided to pretend for the time being. "Oh, the poison in my body still needs to … um … adjust my breathing. If the two of you don't have anything else …"
"Oh, of course, of course." Gong Sun Li gave Si Yanran a look, and then the two left together.
The two left the room and walked until they reached a deserted area. Si Yanran opened her lips to ask, "That Jin Fugui … is really as powerful as you said?"
"If you spent more time learning kung fu from my leader instead of hanging out with that Wang Ao, I believe you would be able to tell," Gong Sun Li mocked.
"Pfft! You have no right to interfere with my business! Now, the man has been killed, and you have a part in it … "Si Yanran replied viciously.
"Enough!" Gong Sun Li said sternly. "It is for the sake of Thousand Dawn Spire's reputation that I helped you clean up this mess, but now I've gotten myself into this mess. "The five from Broken Sword Chahitsu will have to be silenced sooner or later, but not in Chang Lin. For now, we need to please them and try our best to keep these strange people under control. After the duel is over and the people return, I will send people to follow their trail, and then we can come up with a plan … "
"What if … they really don't plan to reveal this secret?" Si Yanran asked.
"Keeping a secret is only temporary, not permanent," Gong Sun Li said. "Don't you understand that?"
Gong Sun Li was naturally suspicious, so naturally, he would not trust others. In his eyes, only dead people would keep secrets. And the only living person that he could trust was himself. At that moment, Gong Sun Li had the intention to kill Si Yanran because he believed that there was a chance that Si Yanran herself would leak the secret.
For the sake of the Thousand Dawn Spire that would one day belong to him, for the reputation and position of this sect in the martial world, Gong Sun Li would do anything to remove every threat and stain.
"Then … since they are so powerful, how should we deal with them in the future?" Si Yanran asked. "Also, the background of this Broken Sword Chahitsu is probably not that simple, right? Do you really believe that Master Feng is a newcomer to the martial world? "
"That's why I said we need to come up with a plan," Gong Sun Li said. Gong Sun Li said, "If they have any background or backing, we'll find out where they came from. If that Feng Bujue is not lying … Humph, that would be perfect. In half a month, I will show them the true meaning of the martial world. "
…
"Achoo!" Feng Bujue sneezed heavily. "No way … I'm wearing so much, and I'm sneezing." He held his nose and said, "Is someone thinking about me with bad intentions?"
"How do you know it's someone with bad intentions?" Passing Rain asked.
"Because the memories that I leave in other people's mind are not good," Feng Bujue replied. He suddenly thought of something. "Huh? So, you can sneeze in the game? Then, will you be able to burp and fart? "
"If you dare to test it in front of me …" A cold murderous intent appeared in Passing Rain's eyes.
"Haha, I'm just kidding," Feng Bujue said with a laugh.
They were walking among the trees and rocks. The shadows around them were as thick as ink. Feng Bujue's flashlight could only illuminate a few meters in front of him, but Passing Rain's lantern could illuminate a larger area in this kind of environment.
The remark of the Constant Weak Light Lantern said, 'It can only illuminate a range of five meters. Twisting the switch will not change its brightness, and it cannot be turned off.' This feature became an advantage because the light from the flashlight could not illuminate that far.
After the two stepped onto the island, they had been heading toward the center of the island. There were no signs of human or animal activity in the forest around them. The two were enveloped in silence and desolation.
However, when they walked among the rocks and trees around them, they would vaguely hear shouts. It was as if someone was calling out to them from another world that was far away, yet close at the same time, calling out to them for help …
This journey was extremely torturous for Passing Rain. The dark and oppressive atmosphere kept her Terror Points from dropping to the bottom. Even though she still had a cold expression on her face, in this kind of environment, as long as one was a human, they would be infected by the scary atmosphere. At that moment, if anything strange flashed out from behind the trees, it would be enough to scare them.
Of course, that did not mean that Feng Bujue was not a human, but he was a person whose mind and body were not quite normal.
To him, there wasn't much difference between advancing in a dark forest and advancing in a sunny meadow. If he had a choice, he would rather choose the Black Forest ….
One could say that there was darkness in his bones. In any case, he did not like things that were too sunny and harmonious.
Furthermore, Feng Bujue's' evil nature 'was known to many. It was an open secret. Even before he entered high school, there were many legends about Brother Jue.
One of them was …
When he was in primary school, Feng Bujue went to join a summer camp. He was randomly assigned to a group. There were six children in the group, and none of them knew each other. One of them was a very sunny, healthy, and kind child. He was the 'other child' in the eyes of his parents, the 'good student' in the eyes of his teachers, and the 'bad guy' in the eyes of his classmates.
This student was the first to introduce himself in the group. He broke the awkward silence and greeted the other strangers one by one. When he came to stand before Feng Bujue, Brother Jue used a gaze that was similar to Schrodinger looking at a cat and said, "Hmm … You are very friendly, and you are very happy. Haha … I have to stop this before it spreads. "
On that day, the good boy was left with a shadow that he would never be able to erase.
There were many similar legends. After Brother Jue became an adult and a professional author, he slowly became an urban legend, but that was something to be dealt with in the future.
Returning to the scenario, Feng Bujue calmly walked down the path. Suddenly, he stopped and shone the flashlight at the root of a tree. He said, "Look there."
Seeing him stop, Passing Rain's heart squeezed. She thought that something scary was about to happen, but she followed the flashlight's source and saw that it was an item hidden between the tree root and the rock. — — —
Item Name: Spider Silk Gloves
Item Type: Armor
[Quality: Excellent]
Defense Points: Medium
Element: None
Special Effect: Can stick to objects
[Equip Requirement: General Ability D, Fighting D]
Remark: Do you want to use your palms to stick something that weighs more than ten kilograms? Do you want to climb up the wall with your bare hands? Do you want to use spider silk to cover someone's face? Stop dreaming! The adhesion of this pair of gloves is worse than cellophane; it's more like sticky tape! — — —
"Hmm … listing all the functions that it doesn't even have …" Feng Bujue tossed the gloves to the ground with annoyance. "What a scam! Can't you just not mention it? After reading the first half, you gradually became happier, didn't you?! "
Passing Rain looked at his back from behind and sighed lightly. Then, she smiled knowingly, but she had no idea why she was so easily amused.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to relax, a voice suddenly rang out. Suddenly, a little girl's hand reached out from the darkness and covered Ru Yu's mouth. Before she could make a sound, she was pulled back by a huge force into the darkness.
Even though Feng Bujue did not hear the scream, the shaking of the light and the sound of the lantern falling to the ground attracted his attention. He whipped his head around, but all he saw was the lantern lying on the ground, and Passing Rain had already disappeared.
