Chapter 205: It Was Like Watching a Movie
At this moment.
The Huangmei Daoist felt an overwhelming sense of regret in his heart.
If he had known earlier, he would have taken a steady approach and not sought a quick victory!
But who could have imagined that the opponent’s speed was even faster than lightning, easily breaking through his Taiqing Thunder Control technique with several shadow clones!
“It’s over!”
Zhao Wuji and the others felt a chill in their hearts upon witnessing this scene, a wave of despair washing over them.
Just then,
“Swish, swish, swish~”
Two figures rushed in from not far away, moving at incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived at the scene.
They were two old men dressed in gray robes.
Both elders had white hair yet youthful faces, their tall figures exuding an aura as deep and unfathomable as the ocean!
“It’s the Medicine King Valley, Deputy Valley Masters Yao Chen and Yao Yan!”
Zhao Wuji exclaimed in surprise.
“It seems the crisis can be resolved; both Deputy Valley Masters are at the Martial Soul realm! They are also experts on the Summer Rankings, and with two against one, the odds are greatly in our favor!”
Hua Yunfei also breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, this place was very close to the Medicine King Valley; otherwise, they would have truly met their end here tonight.
The shadow, upon seeing the arrival of the two Deputy Valley Masters, showed no reaction, merely gazing coldly.
“Huangmei Daoist, are you alright?”
Yao Chen stepped forward to unlock the shadow shackles on Huangmei Daoist and asked in a deep voice.
“My body is fine, but I’m a bit weak and probably can’t fight alongside you!”
Huangmei Daoist forced a smile.
“That’s fine! With my brother and me here, victory is assured! You should meditate and rest well,”
Yao Chen said with a slight smile.
Huangmei Daoist expressed his gratitude, saying, “Then I’ll trouble you two!”
Yao Chen nodded, no longer replying, but shifting his gaze to the shadow not far away.
Yao Yan, standing beside him, intuitively moved to the side, blocking the shadow’s escape route to prevent it from fleeing!
“Although the ninjutsu of the Wokoku is impressive, it merely plagiarizes the extraordinary techniques of our Great Xia! You speak so arrogantly and dare to be so brazen within our borders!”
Yao Chen said, pausing for a moment before coldly continuing:
“Are you taking advantage of the fact that there is no one to challenge you?”
“Do you really think you have a sure victory?”
The shadow sneered, its figure suddenly vanishing from the spot.
Then,
“Swish, swish, swish~”
Thousands of shadow clones appeared before everyone, surrounding Yao Chen and Yao Yan.
Each shadow clone displayed a different face, resembling real living beings.
“More people? I have a thousand clones; what can you do about it?”
The thousand shadow clones spoke in unison, their voices resonating through the starry sky, sending chills down Zhao Wuji and the others’ spines!
Even Huangmei Daoist looked shocked!
This move,
He had not seen it just now…
Which meant that the shadow had not even used its full strength while battling him!
The top assassin of the Yaki group was terrifying indeed!!!
“Stop with the theatrics!”
Yao Chen snorted coldly and launched an attack at the shadow clone before him.
Yao Yan also instinctively charged forward!
The two shared the same thought; since they couldn’t distinguish between true and false, they would destroy all the clones…
But soon,
They realized their mistake, as the shadow technique could not be destroyed at all!
For every bit they destroyed, new shadow clones would immediately take their place; doing so was merely a waste of effort!
“How can there be such ninjutsu!”
Yao Yan frowned slightly.
“It’s just a modified version of the Daoist technique of transforming one into three,”
Yao Chen replied.
“Superficial; these shadow clones can only serve to confuse, lacking any combat power. As long as we find the true body, we can easily break this technique!”
Yao Chen said slowly.
Yao Yan fell silent upon hearing this.
Logically, that was true, but in the current situation, finding the true body was akin to searching for a needle in a haystack!
Were they really going to just wait until dawn?
Once dawn broke, these shadow clones in the darkness could easily be dealt with!
Just then.
“Swish~”
A cold light flashed past Yao Yan’s back.
“Be careful!”
Yao Chen, Huangmei Daoist, and the others changed their expressions drastically and shouted loudly.
Yao Yan felt the hairs on his back stand on end; without hesitation, he turned and struck out with his palm.
“Boom!”
He shattered a shadow clone behind him, but his chest was also slashed by the shadow’s dagger, leaving a deep wound that exposed bone!
In an instant, blood gushed forth, staining Yao Yan’s shirt red!
“Hiss~”
Yao Yan gasped in pain.
He quickly pressed on his chest, trying to seal the blood vessels and stop the bleeding, but to his surprise, he couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
“Poof~”
“Not good, the dagger is poisoned! It’s a toxin that affects the nervous system; I must use my energy to expel the poison, or it will be too late!”
Yao Yan said as he took a detoxification pill from his storage bag.
Upon hearing this,
The expressions of everyone in the field turned extremely grim!
Despicable!
The Wokoku people were truly despicable to this extent!
Not only did they launch a sneak attack, but they also poisoned the dagger!
“Junior Brother, you focus on healing; the rest is up to me!”
Yao Chen said quickly.
Yao Yan nodded, immediately sitting cross-legged to expel the poison!
Just then.
“Swish~”
Another cold light streaked across the night sky, and Yao Chen, already on guard, immediately struck out in the direction of the cold light.
However, unexpectedly,
At that moment, a shadow clone behind him also lunged at him with a dagger!
Yao Chen sensed the movement behind him and wanted to turn around to defend, but it was clearly too late.
As he turned slightly, the dagger plunged deep into his left abdomen, and a large amount of black blood gushed from the wound, indicating that the poison on the dagger was extremely potent!
“Bang!”
At that moment, the shadow revealed itself.
It kicked Yao Chen, sending him flying over ten meters before crashing heavily to the ground!
“You…”
Yao Chen struggled a few times before managing to lift his head, his eyes fixed on the shadow, wanting to say something but unable to utter a word.
“What do you want?”
“You Great Xia martial artists are truly a bunch of useless trash; you don’t even understand the principle of feinting, and what does it matter if you’re at the Martial Soul realm? You are still easily toyed with in my hands!”
“A bunch of worthless things! So weak! I really don’t understand how you useless people managed to kill the Blade Demon before!”
The shadow said coldly.
Hearing the shadow’s words,
The anger in everyone’s hearts reached a boiling point, yet they felt helpless!
After all, they had lost; defeat was defeat!
Everyone’s faces turned pale, their bodies cold.
What should they do now?
Were they really going to just wait to die?
“Academician Hua, I… I’m sorry! I couldn’t protect you well; I, Huangmei Daoist, have failed the trust placed in me by the leader and the country!”
Huangmei Daoist looked at Hua Yunfei, his face filled with guilt.
“It’s fate! If it’s destined that I cannot escape this calamity, then it is my fate!”
“Rather, it is because of me, a useless person, that I have implicated you all, and implicated the two esteemed ones from the Medicine King Valley; I truly feel deeply guilty!”
Hua Yunfei said calmly, even in the face of life and death, he remained unperturbed.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji, the maid Xiao Qing, and Huangmei Daoist all shed tears.
Yao Chen and Yao Yan also looked furious and sorrowful.
Ultimately, they had been too careless, thinking they could easily handle the shadow. If they had been more cautious, how could they have fallen into this predicament?
No matter how strong the shadow was, in a direct confrontation, it could not possibly be their match!
“Enough! You can all go together!”
The shadow had no interest in listening to the apologies exchanged among them and prepared to move forward to kill them!
The group looked pale, waiting for death!
Just then.
Lin Feng tossed aside the sunflower seed shell in his hand and strolled out leisurely, saying lightly:
“Wonderful! It feels like watching a movie. There are fight scenes, schemes, and even clever military strategies; it’s truly interesting!”
