Xiong Ba: "3 seconds—behind you!"
Cloud Guest was startled by the private message but didn’t have time to ponder its meaning.
Attempting a flip to create distance, but Xiao Jie wouldn’t let him get away, Combat Skills—Continuous Arrow!
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, four arrows shot rapidly in succession.
Cloud Guest dodged in midair, twisting and turning, yet only managed to evade three arrows; the fourth struck him.
The damage wasn’t high, but it set Cloud Guest’s heart racing. This was a fight for his life, and because of the Forbidden Elixir, any loss of Blood Volume was permanent, sweat pouring from his palm clutching the mouse, he dared not linger.
The moment he landed, Xiong Da pounced at him again.
Awooo! Xiong Da let out a Shock Roar! It failed to trigger a shock but gave Cloud Guest a good scare.
Cloud Guest felt a headache coming on. Although not much of a threat, it was seriously annoying. Once pinned down, it would surely lead to the opponent’s follow-up attack; moreover, this thing had a high Life Value of 600, making it nearly impossible to kill quickly, leaving evasion as the only option.
Xiao Jie continued to fire arrows relentlessly.
Cloud Guest used Wind Stepping twice in quick succession to distance himself from Xiong Da.
Just as he saw Xiao Jie shoot another arrow, he forcefully charged up and swung his sword.
Sword Energy Slash! Swipe.
That was Cloud Guest’s real confidence. His second profession was a Qi Gong Master, and coupled with Swordsman’s Core Skills, he was able to condense Sword Qi before level 30.
Xiao Jie, facing the incoming Sword Qi, was unfazed. The distance was so great he didn’t even need to use Phantom Traceless; he simply rolled to dodge it.
Releasing Sword Qi from such a distance, other than wasting Inner Power Value, was meaningless. He was panicking.
Xiao Jie felt more assured. As a seasoned player, he could sense the opponent’s mental state changes through the details of their moves, and he switched to Sword and Shield, casually strolling closer to Cloud Guest.
The two were less than ten steps apart.
Seeing Xiao Jie get clipped by the Sword Energy Slash, Cloud Guest felt a rush of joy, but the next second, he saw the figure dissipate under the Sword Energy’s attack, chilling his heart almost instinctively as he used Wind Stepping too late.
One Cut, Two Pieces! -94!
Cloud Guest’s Wind Stepping was interrupted, he immediately performed a roll to create distance, and Xiao Jie followed with a Rolling Blade Slash grazing him with a slice.
Cloud Guest was somewhat confused; at this point, his Blood Volume was already lower than his opponent, and he didn’t dare to engage in close combat anymore, so he immediately used Qinggong to increase the distance after getting up.
Watching his opponent still at full health while he was left with less than half, Cloud Guest could feel the scent of death looming over him.
(Impossible, how can he be so strong! I won’t die here, it’s not possible, I’m only 26!) Cloud Guest’s hand trembled, the screams of the players he had killed before echoing in his mind at that moment.
How joyful he had been when those fools begged for mercy.
However, at this moment, he suddenly realized the fear contained in those cries, the fear of death.
"Wind..." he opened his mouth but didn’t know how to start; he had disabled surrendering himself.
Xiao Jie, however, felt quite satisfied at this moment. This was the power of a Supreme Divine Skill, even without using the secret technique, handling a Little Kalami was like child’s play.
Of course, it had a lot to do with his own exquisite control.
He slowly approached Cloud Guest with his long sword slanted, giving off an air of nonchalance, much like a cat toying with a mouse.
However, Cloud Guest felt his mouth dry and tongue parched, as the ghost-like movement technique overwhelmed him with a sense of helplessness.
It’s over, I’m really going to die—damn, this guy must be cheating.
Xiong Ba: Three seconds—behind you!
What? Cloud Guest suddenly perked up and finally caught on.
So that’s it—he gritted his teeth!
Secret Technique—Cloud Dragon Three Appearances!
This was his true confidence—Secret Techniques, these are the symbols of a true master; I can’t believe you could dodge this move too.
[Cloud Dragon Three Appearances: Continuously releases three large-scale, fan-shaped Sword Qi, each Sword Qi inflicting 100 points of Sword Qi damage within a 20-step range, and you can freely adjust the Sword Qi’s attack direction and release frequency...]
A sweeping sword energy with an incredibly broad range came forth head-on.
Unfortunately, the distance was too great, and Xiao Jie dodged it by rolling away.
But the second wave of Sword Qi followed closely, and this time he couldn’t dodge it.
As expected, that figure was instantly shattered by the Sword Qi.
Cloud Guest sharply turned around, and indeed, the figure of Xiao Jie appeared in the air. Without hesitation, he swung the third wave of Sword Qi with all his might.
At such a close range, and with the Sword Qi sweeping across a wide area, the opponent couldn’t possibly dodge.
As long as it hit, he could follow up with more combos—damn, what comes next...
But he no longer needed to think.
The moment the third Sword Qi swept across, Xiao Jie also made his move.
One Cut, Two Pieces—Sky Splitting Flash!
A vertical Sword Energy collided with the horizontal Sword Qi, emitting a piercing screeching sound, and both energies instantly neutralized each other.
(Damn it, this kid can emit Sword Energy too!) A cold chill ran through Cloud Guest.
He had just unleashed a big move, leaving himself wide open. Normally, if this Sword Qi had hit the opponent, there would have been no problem, but now it had become a fatal flaw.
Xiao Jie took advantage of the situation, his blade sweeping in like a whirlwind.
Secret Technique—Wind Roll Cloud!
What! This is impossible.
Cloud Guest didn’t even know how many times this thought had crossed his mind.
Not only does he have Sword Qi, but he knows Secret Techniques too...
Is this guy really just level 15?
At this moment, Cloud Guest still had nearly two hundred Blood Volume left, and he thought that even if the Sword Qi hit, he could withstand it, but now—
Swish, swish, swish... Amidst the cutting sound of the blade entering the flesh, Xiao Jie’s move dealt maximum damage. Cloud Guest instantly took nine stabs, triggering Cold Moon Illumination three times, dealing a total of 227 points of damage, emptying Cloud Guest’s health bar entirely, and also triggering an execution animation.
Xiao Jie landed and sheathed his sword, as Cloud Guest behind him was slashed into ten pieces, shattering to the ground.
