Chapter 961: You Shouldn’t Have Met Me!

Chapter 961: Chapter 961: You Shouldn’t Have Met Me!

As the Gu Insect was about to fly into the man’s mouth, the Silver Baron revealed a wicked smile. He knew Yang Qi too well — the type who liked to act heroically, couldn’t stand to see innocent bystanders get hurt.

That’s their fatal flaw.

Yang Qi would definitely go to rescue the person.

Thus, he would surely make a smooth escape.

In the next moment, he saw a figure fly toward the passerby, grab the Gu Insect, and turn it to ash.

The Silver Baron chuckled. As expected.

Then, he turned to leave without hesitation.

Yet, just as he turned around, he found someone standing in front of him — Yang Qi.

"Impossible!"

He was stunned.

He turned to glance at the ground.

Indeed, another Yang Qi was standing there.

Two Yang Qis?

No!

This is the Clone Technique!

This Spell he had only heard of, but never witnessed anyone successfully perform.

He had seen those clone techniques, where clones were merely illusions and couldn’t do anything, but Yang Qi’s clone could perform Yang Qi’s abilities.

What kind of trick is this?

He was even more panicked inside.

"Still want to keep trying?"

Amid the Silver Baron’s chaos, Yang Qi’s voice rang out: "I think you don’t need to struggle. Let’s settle this here, once and for all!"

"Since you wish for death, I’ll grant it!"

The Silver Baron had no other choice. His silver white hair suddenly grew long, like sharp silver strands, enveloping all of Yang Qi’s escape Space.

This was the Silver Baron’s strongest ability.

Innate talent.

In this world, some people are born with certain special abilities.

The Silver Baron was one such person.

Using this ability, he had assassinated countless experts.

Those Half-step Martial Spirits were killed this way.

"Interesting ability."

Yang Qi employed Alchemy Blade.

A golden long sword slashed out.

Golden Sword Qi cleaved through the silver threads forming the Heaven and Earth Net.

Crack!

The dense silver strands were easily cut apart by the golden long sword.

The Silver Baron’s face changed drastically.

His special skill was effortlessly dismantled, which was simply beyond his acceptance.

Yang Qi felt a bit uninterested.

The Silver Baron was too weak.

Compared to Wu Shanshui and Di Shi, he was not in the same league at all.

Honestly, if it weren’t for the uniqueness of Spiritual Power, or the strength of Spells, Yang Qi might not have been able to defeat Di Shi and Wu Shanshui.

But facing the Silver Baron, even without Spiritual Power and Spells, he could easily win.

Even among Half-step Martial Spirits, there’s a vast difference.

Although the Silver Baron was panicked, he did not give up.

His hair transformed into thousands upon thousands of sharp silver threads, shooting at Yang Qi. He didn’t believe Yang Qi could block all these silver threads.

If even one silver thread pierced Yang Qi’s body, he had a way to make Yang Qi regret it.

"Boring tricks."

Yang Qi took a glance before slashing out once more.

Five Elements Sword Technique·Vermilion Bird Burning Sky!

Searing flames transformed into the shape of a Vermilion Bird, soared into the sky, burning all the silver threads to ashes.

The Silver Baron let out a scream; if he hadn’t cut off the connection in time, he would have been bald by now.

But even so, his once beautiful silver hair was burnt, uneven, scorched, and curled, appearing extremely unsightly.

"What terrifying Swordsmanship, what terrifying Sword Skill!"

The Silver Baron’s heart was filled with terror. The more he fought against Yang Qi, the more he realized his own inadequacy.

No matter what move he made.

Even deploying his trump card before Yang Qi, was countered with just a slash.

This slash could cleave everything in the world!

"Die!"

The Silver Baron was furious, pulling out a Detonator Talisman from his windbreaker.

As an Assassin, he never cared about methods.

As long as it could kill the opponent, he was willing to use it.

He had spent a considerable amount on these Detonator Talismans, preparing to use them in desperate times. Now was the time.

Five Elements Sword Technique·Qilin Earth!

A massive earth wall appeared before Yang Qi, like a Qilin standing there, blocking all attacks for Yang Qi.

The terrifying explosion sounded endlessly.

Even a Half-step Martial Spirit would be blasted half to death by these dozen Detonator Talismans.

But unfortunately, the Silver Baron faced Yang Qi, sealing his fate of defeat.

"Ah...!"

After a series of explosions, the Silver Baron lay on the ground, covered in blood.

Qilin Earth isn’t just about defense; it’s an offensive and defensive move.

Once executed, it not only blocks the enemy’s attack but also reflects the attack back.

Accurately speaking, the Silver Baron was hurt by his own attack.

"Eh?"

He thought this strike would be the end for the Silver Baron.

Yet, to Yang Qi’s surprise, something strange happened.

The Silver Baron’s originally burned hair grew out, wrapping around his body, forming a perfect silver armor.

It even temporarily suppressed his injuries.

This wasn’t exactly healing, but more like stitching up the wounds.

Quite interesting.

"Yang Qi, I originally didn’t want to use this technique, but you’ve forced me!"

The Silver Baron stood with a strange posture, as if bounced up by something, his eyes turned silver.

His entire aura enhanced significantly.

"Is this the Western Continent’s innate ability? Quite interesting."

Yang Qi attempted another slash with the golden long sword.

Clang!

The Sword Qi was deflected.

The Silver Baron now possessed incredible defense.

"Do you know why I’m called the Silver Baron? It’s because of such a technique, and anyone who has seen it essentially ends up dead.

You won’t be an exception!"

The Silver Baron was very confident now.

This technique, Silver Baron had always refrained from using, not quite adept at it yet, every use would cost him lifespan — genuine lifespan.

Even a day less, he begrudged.

Moreover, the longer it’s used, the more lifespan is consumed.

So, he never wanted to use it in battle.

But today he truly had no choice; without this move, he couldn’t defeat Yang Qi.

"Interesting Secret Technique! But alas, meeting me today seals your fate as a tragedy!"

Yang Qi shook his head, put away the golden long sword, and unsheathed the Wild Battle Saber.

Then, slashed out!

Five Elements Sword Technique·White Tiger Thunderclap!

A terrifying White Tiger transformed into lightning piercing through the Silver Baron’s body.

The ground behind the Silver Baron was blasted into a deep pit.

And the Silver Baron’s body now incomplete.

As if bombarded by artillery.

"Impossible...!"

This was the Silver Baron’s last thought before consciousness faded.

How could he lose!

He used his strongest Secret Technique, a life-threatening move, yet got obliterated by just one strike.
