Chapter 175: Shame Xuan Qi! Kill Xuan Jiu!

Ling Yun instantly knew that the smell of danger from the past two days had not been from Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu who just reached the top of Longpan Mountain. This was because the killing intent emitting from the two was a hundred times stronger than that of Li Yi and Jiao Fei combined. Ling Yun knew that for one to have such a murderous aura, one would have to have killed at least eight hundred people.

The aura enclosed Ling Yun as it flooded the entire area, painting a deadly atmosphere. However, Ling Yun did not turn back. Seeing the lack of reaction, Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu reached a silent agreement before Xuan Jiu suddenly raised his feet to kick a watermelon-sized rock in the direction of Ling Yun. At the same time, Xuan Qi flung her petite body towards Ling Yun like a butterfly while unsheathing the two daggers.

Ling Yun casually shifted his head to the side, allowing the rock to brush past his ear and fly for ten more meters before falling. Xuan Qi reached Ling Yun and her lightning quick hands struck one dagger at the vein on Ling Yun's neck and the other at his heart.

She obviously wanted to kill him in one move to that she was a professional killer. Their every move was set to be fatal and they did not play around with their victims. Xuan Qi's arms were like two black poisonous snakes and the daggers were just like a snake's fangs which were able to reach Ling Yun instantly.

At this moment, Ling Yun started to move. His long body twisted in an unusual way and slid out at an unbelievable angle. He was not using the Thousand Miles Godly Steps which would have been too slow at the speed that Xuan Qi's hands were moving.

Instead, he was using the Dragon Fish Phantom technique! This ability could be practiced when one reached the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Level 3. It was the best choice for short-distance combat and relied on the flexibility, coordination, and power of one's body. Once it was used, the person would move like a swimming fish or a flying dragon, nimble and at ease. At the peak, the body would leave behind traces of shadows, causing the opponent to lose sight of the actual person. It could be done in an area of 50 to 100 meters and could leave up to 9981 phantoms.

In other words, Ling Yun was able to engage in one-to-one fights no matter how many people there were around him. As long as they were unable to catch up, the opponents could only stare. "He actually dodged it..." The confident Xuan Qi was unable to believe that Ling Yun managed to dodge her attack as her eyes widened in surprise. But she got over her shock and turned to pounce at Ling Yun again.

"Hehehe..." Xuan Jiu had also made his way to Ling Yun and engaged in combat before reaching him. Three shining knives flew towards Ling Yun like meteors and the blades shimmered in the night sky, reflecting their deadliness.

"D*mn, I have not even used my flying needles yet and you're already using your knives!" Ling Yun used his ability to escape the knives and to avoid the fatal move of Xuan Qi. Xuan Jiu knew that his knives would miss Ling Yun so he ran towards Ling Yun and raised his hands to pull out the tri-edged blade from his back. This specially made tri-edged blade was 2 feet long and weighed about 4.5 kilograms. It was made of silver and could be used as both a knife and a short stick. It was suitable for smashing, blocking and striking.

Ling Yun flew back, landing unsteadily and Xuan Jiu clinched the chance to strike at his chest with his blade. "You want to take advantage of me? You were born 10 years late for that!" Ling Yun chuckled as he went for the blade with his left hand.

As the blade was triangular, every side was extremely sharp. Seeing that Ling Yun was going to grab it with his bare hands, Xuan Jiu sliced at Ling Yun's palm with the desire to kill. Ling Yun did not flinch and grabbed the blade.

The Dayan Great Stars Technique finally shows its ability when Ling Yun felt no pain from the blade while Xuan Jiu had thought that it would definitely slice off half his hand. He couldn't help but exclaim in shock and hurriedly pulled the blade back roughly. It was definitely not Ling Yun's style to allow him to pull back the blade, so Ling Yun grabbed on and landed on the ground. He slid his palm along the blade before grabbing on tightly and pulling it towards himself.

The blade shot towards the chest of Xuan Qi who was behind Ling Yun. This was too harsh! If Xuan Qi were to get hit by the blade, her death would be uncertain but there was no doubt that she would be wounded badly. "Do you have a death wish?" Xuan Qi growled in anger as she twisted her body away from the blade and raising her daggers above her head, she brought it down towards Ling Yun's shoulders with gritted teeth.

"Haha..."Ling Yun laughed. He waited until Xuan Qi got nearer before releasing his hold on the blade and used his ability to slip away! The black daggers plunged towards Xuan Jiu's chest at the speed of light. Xuan Jiu panicked and quickly leaned back while Xuan Qi tried to pull back her hands. However, it was too late and the sharp daggers cut across Xuan Jiu's shoulders.

"Hehe..." Xuan Jiu's clothes were sliced open, revealing two strips of blood running from his chest to his stomach. Everything had happened so quickly. Within twenty seconds, Xuan Jiu had already been injured after a few exchanges.

Ling Yun whirled around, grabbing onto the tri-edged blade but he made no move to attack. Instead, he brought it up to his eye to survey it, saying, "This is a good weapon...but it is too light!" He glanced up to look at Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu who were standing shoulder to shoulder in front of him.

"You two are almost done with attacking with me, so is it my turn to play?" he said as used the blade as a knife and attacked them. Xiaowu Xiang Swordplay! This was another one of Ling Yun's special techniques before he reached Qi Cultivation Stage.

Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu would never have dreamt that the blade would become such a big threat once it landed in Ling Yun's hands. Other than the amazing speed, the blade traveled with no obvious direction but was always accompanied with complicated gestures which resembled that of a poisonous dragon. Every time the blade was used to attack, Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu found it difficult to counter.

Ling Yun had not used this ability in a long time and as he was feeling particularly excited today, he decided to practice on Xuan Qi and Xuan Jiu. Furthermore, he was using his left hand to strike.

*Rip* The triangular blade sliced the shoulder of Xuan Qi, creating a rip in her black shirt and exposing her fair skin. The beautiful killer had a bloodied shoulder as the blood oozed out of the cut.

"Be careful..." Ling Yun light-heartedly said as he warned the alluring Xuan Qi. The pair glanced at each other and their shock was mirrored each other's face. Ling Yun had reached the level of not just the peak of the yellow rank but maybe even the peak of the black rank. If they were still unable to realize that Ling Yun was playing with them, they should just quit being assassins.

"Again!" Ling Yun felt better as he continued to fight, solely relying on the blade to attack Xuan Qi while countering Xuan Jiu's attacks. *Rip* The sound of fabric ripping resounded. Xuan Qi was too slow at dodging and her other shoulder was cut by the blade. At this point, her shirt had been torn apart by Ling Yun, exposing her skin and her cleavage.

"I'm going to kill you!" Xuan Qi was infuriated by the constant humiliation and she pounced at Ling Yun with her daggers, paying no heed to the blade. She would rather risk the danger of getting harmed than be unable to harm Ling Yun at all.

"Just you?!" Ling Yun laughed but his hand showed no mercy. The blade sliced the air with a perfect arc, and with another *Rip* sound, Xuan Qi's shirt was torn to pieces and her chest was entirely out in the open.

"Nice figure!" Ling Yun smiled at the stunned Xuan Qi before clenching his right hand and punching her in the chest without hesitation. It was the strongest and most intense punch, the Tiangang Demon Fist. Xuan Qi couldn't dodge it as it was too fast and powerful.

*Bam!* Xuan Qi flew 7 meters back and couldn't get up no matter how much she tried.

"Women should stay away from this game of killing!" Ling Yun smirked while turning to look at the terrified Xuan Jiu. "Don't be scared. You will have a fast death!" Ling Yun never showed any mercy to his victims and his reputation of being firm was not a lie. These people were not like the bullies in a school where a small punishment would be enough. Including Xuan Qi, these were cold-hearted murderers.

Using the Dragon Fish Phantom ability, Ling Yun reached Xuan Jiu in an instant. Xuan Jiu tried to escape using his own powers but was three times slower than Ling Yun. Ling Yun grabbed his neck and with his right hand, he picked up a two-inch needle. Shoving it into an acupuncture point on Xuan Jiu's head, the needle submerged fully. Xuan Jiu's eyes widened in fear as he tried to speak.

"Die!" Ling Yun said coldly and calmly as if he was doing something normal. He raised Xuan Jiu up high and tossed his body towards the large crater in front of the horrified Xuan Qi.
