Chapter 635: Chapter 659: Clash of Experts

The entertainment room was not large, about sixty or seventy square meters in size, furnished with two tables, two sets of sofas, and a small liquor cabinet. However, there was no one inside. As soon as Li Yifei entered, he took cover behind one of the tables and raised his gun to fire two shots toward the doorway.

The shadow at the doorway flashed, and the woman in black rushed in, sticking close to the door frame. Li Yifei’s two shots aimed at the center of the doorway completely missed their target.

This woman was truly audacious, with an incredibly accurate judgment, but what she faced was Li Yifei. Li Yifei was not only skilled in martial arts, but his marksmanship was also top-notch. Although those two shots missed, he quickly raised his hand again, aimed the gun at the woman now in mid-air, and continued to pull the trigger.

A person in mid-air, under normal circumstances, would be totally unable to change direction, but as this woman crossed the doorway, she suddenly kicked off the door frame and flew horizontally into the room. Her reaction speed was indescribable; it no longer seemed within the abilities of a normal human being.

In the midst of her flight, the woman did not just attempt to dodge; her hands waved continuously, throwing several Flying Daggers that glinted coldly towards Li Yifei’s exposed head and arms.

Li Yifei had intended to keep shooting, following the trajectory of the woman’s movement, but the moment she raised her hand, he knew that if he continued to fire, he would be the first to be struck by her Flying Daggers. Thus, he made a quick decision, suddenly contracting his body downwards, dodging her Flying Daggers, which left him unable to attack the woman any longer and allowing her to land on the ground.

What followed was a heart-stopping battle within the confined space of the entertainment room, with bullets flying and the gleam of Flying Daggers. Neither bullets nor Flying Daggers could harm the other side.

Li Yifei fired another shot, still missing the woman, who now, surprisingly, stopped hiding her figure and walked directly towards Li Yifei.

"MP5 micro assault rifle, with only thirty rounds in the magazine. You’ve fired thirty shots, there are no bullets left," the woman said in a calm voice as she walked over, exuding immense self-confidence.

Li Yifei stood up, casually tossed aside the micro assault rifle, and smiled broadly at the woman, saying, "I didn’t expect you to be so proficient with Flying Daggers and to also know so much about guns, even remembering how many shots I’ve fired."

The woman snorted coldly and said, "You have no more bullets now, but I still have countless Flying Daggers. You’re as good as dead."

The smile remained shining on Li Yifei’s face as he said, "Just now you said that if I dodged your five Flying Daggers, I’d be your man. It seems I just dodged thirty-five of them."

The woman’s face, hidden behind a mask, was not visible to Li Yifei, but he knew she must have been taken aback. The sounds of firing a gun, whether in burst or single shots, were loud, enabling any expert to count the shots fired. However, when the woman threw her Flying Daggers, they were shadowless and soundless; for Li Yifei to accurately recount the number of daggers she had thrown was much harder than her counting his shots.

"Do you really wish to become my man?" the woman asked, pausing instead of striking.

Li Yifei chuckled and replied, "Does it cost money? If it does, forget it. I never pay for women; it’s unclean."

The woman was completely unmoved by Li Yifei’s comment. A powerful assassin, especially a woman skilled with the Flying Dagger, must maintain a calm composure at all times, or else they couldn’t throw their daggers with such precision. Clearly, this woman’s dagger-throwing skills had reached a transcendental level, so Li Yifei’s words did not alter her state of mind one bit.

"There’s no need to try and enrage me; it won’t work. I respect the fact that you’re a rare expert. I’ll give you an opportunity now. If you can escape from my four Flying Daggers, I’ll spare your life."

As she spoke, the woman slowly raised her hands, with each of the index, middle, and ring fingers holding a blade-like Flying Dagger between them.

Li Yifei responded with a light smile, "I don’t need your pity for my life, nor do I need your clemency. If you want to kill me, it won’t be that easy."

"A real man’s spirit, are you ready?" the woman asked with great confidence in her Flying Dagger skills, standing face-to-face with Li Yifei and reminding him to prepare.

The distance between Li Yifei and the woman was just over five meters. The velocity at which the woman could throw her Flying Daggers was extremely fast, rivaling even bullets, meaning she had to possess immense strength to make the daggers move so swiftly. At such a short distance, it would be very difficult to dodge without anticipating in advance.

Li Yifei gave a slight smile and said, "Not yet."

The woman stood there with her hands raised, motionless, as if waiting for Li Yifei to be ready.

Li Yifei suddenly stretched in a large yawn and said, "Beauty, this killing each other really isn’t fun. How about we find a room to bond a bit? I think that would be much more interesting."

"If you’re not afraid, I have no objections," the woman replied briskly.

Li Yifei laughed heartily and said, "Alright, alright, let’s go then."

"Seeking death!" The woman let out a cold shout. Her hands suddenly lifted, and two Flying Daggers had already left her fingertips, flying towards Li Yifei’s throat and heart like two streaks of cold light.

But suddenly, a chair flew up from behind Li Yifei, heading straight for the two Flying Daggers.

When Li Yifei had been stretching earlier, he had casually swept his hand behind him, and by the time he brought it forward, he had already grabbed the chair.

The chair was large and made of solid wood. Thrown with Li Yifei’s strength, it was as formidable as a heavyweight weapon. If it really hit the woman, she would likely be seriously injured if not killed.

The two Flying Daggers hit the solid chair, but the chair couldn’t stop them; the daggers pierced through it as if cutting through tofu, and their direction didn’t change at all, still headed for Li Yifei’s throat and heart.

However, the chair had at least slowed the daggers slightly, and although it was only by a bit, it was enough for Li Yifei to react. He stretched out his body and dodged the daggers while charging towards the woman.

Fighting with a woman who played with Flying Daggers, the further away he was, the more passive he became. Everyone may not know this, but in the game "Hero’s Wisdom", if you are in close combat and need to deal with someone at range, the best method is to charge in close and engage in hand-to-hand combat. Otherwise, you can’t hit the opponent, yet the opponent can always hit you, ensuring your defeat.

At this moment, the chair and Li Yifei charged at the woman with almost equal speed, neither the chair nor Li Yifei could be ignored by her.

This would normally be a good tactic, but this woman was just too strong. At that time, her gaze fixed on Li Yifei as she slid to the side, her hands swinging once more, and the two previously unthrown Flying Daggers, now spinning, flew towards Li Yifei.

These two daggers weren’t fast this time; they fluttered like butterflies. But Li Yifei suddenly felt a strong sense of danger. Though his charge didn’t slow, he had already raised all his alertness.

The daggers got closer and closer to Li Yifei, and when they were only half a meter away, they unexpectedly collided with each other. This seemed like a big mistake, something that shouldn’t happen to a master of Flying Daggers, but Li Yifei became even more tense.

The daggers the woman had initially thrown, though fast and powerful, were predictable. Li Yifei also wasn’t bad with Flying Daggers, and although not as good as the woman, he could predict the direction of the daggers as soon as she moved her hand, giving him time to prepare to dodge.

But when these two daggers suddenly collided, it changed their course, forcing him to make a new judgment. With the daggers so close, evading them would be extremely difficult.

The woman, having dodged the chair, crossed her arms after releasing the daggers. Since she had mastered this unique skill, no one had been able to dodge her dual Flying Dagger attack. Even if Li Yifei was highly skilled, the only way he might avoid them was by retreating, which he hadn’t. Charging forward at such a short distance made it impossible to dodge her daggers, so she was certain this man was as good as dead.

"Pfft, pfft!" Two strange sounds suddenly erupted. The woman’s eyes, the only part of her visible, immediately showed extreme surprise. Her daggers had failed completely.

The man in front of her had used a method she had never anticipated. At the critical moment, he had used his shoes as weapons. He had met her Flying Daggers with his shoes, deflecting them off course.

In her view, at such a short distance, no one could possibly avoid her daggers. If Li Yifei had any kind of hard object in his hands, he might be able to block the daggers, but that would require an extremely precise judgment of their trajectory. However, Li Yifei had nothing of the sort in his hands, which is why she was so confident.

But who would have thought Li Yifei could use his shoes that way? This unexpected turn caught her off guard.

The worst part was that not only had Li Yifei deflected her daggers, but he was now less than half a meter away from her. An iron fist, carrying the wind, was smashing towards her chest. Even before the punch reached her, the pressure made it hard for her to breathe. One could easily imagine the consequences if the punch actually hit her chest.
