Chapter 237: 0234 Chasing and Killing

Pursuit

"You’re exchanging moves," Ye Qiu gradually discerned Fujikawa Ueno’s intention and chuckled lightly, "Want to learn the True Qi shield?"

Fujikawa Ueno didn’t bother to conceal his thoughts, "You still have some use now, until I’ve figured out this defensive technique, naturally I won’t let you die."

"Heh..." Ye Qiu sneered, "It sounds as if I’ve already surrendered."

Ignoring Ye Qiu’s attitude, Fujikawa Ueno once again harnessed True Qi with his karate techniques and in a few strides, launched hundreds of palm strikes.

As his assault failed to penetrate, Fujikawa Ueno grew ever more determined to obtain Ye Qiu’s move.

The True Qi shield was a technique stolen from a mysterious individual. It would have been fine if someone else had learned it, but this man from the island nation, he absolutely must not be allowed to master it. Ye Qiu didn’t plan to waste any more time with him and immediately unleashed the Eagle Snake Xuan Hand.

Swish!

The move began with the eagle’s claw and the snake’s body; Ye Qiu’s form was eerie, and in an instant, his claw fiercely grasped, blocking Fujikawa Ueno’s palm, and immediately followed with a kick that slammed into Fujikawa Ueno’s abdomen with a thud.

The kick was powerful, yet it didn’t injure Fujikawa Ueno. The only thing that made Fujikawa Ueno stop his attack was Ye Qiu’s Eagle Snake Xuan Hand, a move he had almost been crippled by during their last encounter.

Now that Ye Qiu attacked with Eagle Snake Xuan Hand again, Fujikawa Ueno immediately performed his own technique to counter it.

The "Karate Knife", cutting through everything.

Fujikawa Ueno’s hands moved in large, sweeping motions—his hands appeared slow but were in fact quick, leaving a blurry afterimage as they moved, as if he were a thousand-armed deity.

The strength of Ye Qiu’s Eagle Snake Xuan Hand lay in the mystery of the "Xuan" character. Fujikawa Ueno sought to stop the blow with speed, to block the Eagle Snake Xuan Hand. Ye Qiu’s thoughts flashed, and he changed the trajectory of the attack.

The Eagle Snake Xuan Hand could also transform into the Snake Shadow Eagle Falcon.

Ye Qiu’s body suddenly crouched into a curve, as if turning into a taut bowstring.

Seeing this, Fujikawa Ueno’s heart skipped a beat, unsure of what move Ye Qiu was conjuring, and in that moment of hesitation, Ye Qiu’s body exploded from the spot, and he leaped ten meters into the air.

Fujikawa Ueno was stunned. He had thought Ye Qiu was preparing a move to strike at him, but seeing this, he instantly realized that Ye Qiu was attempting to escape.

Ye Qiu had long harbored thoughts of flight. Had it been only Fujikawa Ueno, he was confident he could cope, but with eight other voracious opponents, Ye Qiu had long sensed the danger emanating from them. If he continued the fight, consuming too much True Qi in a battle of attrition with Fujikawa Ueno, he would surely be captured in the end.

So, taking advantage of the moment Fujikawa Ueno was wary of Eagle Snake Xuan Hand, he suddenly initiated his escape.

"Damn it," Fujikawa Ueno exclaimed loudly.

Hearing this, the eight who had already been standing by, all tried to block Ye Qiu’s path.

As Ye Qiu’s body shot into the air, the ground beneath his feet bore two deep footprints. Fortunately, the Snake Shadow Form was suited for breaking free from tight spots. Using the earth’s force as a fulcrum and his body as a bow with his qi as the string, he shot himself forward.

Although he reached mid-air, instantly putting distance between himself and Fujikawa Ueno and the others, being in the air without leverage, he began to fall back down.

Thump.

Landing on the ground, Ye Qiu had bypassed most of his opponents, with just two of the men still blocking his way.

"Stop him," Fujikawa Ueno ordered, still about twenty steps away from Ye Qiu. Although Fujikawa Ueno could traverse those twenty steps in little more than a breath, for a master like him, that breath and a half could change the entire situation.

The two men sprung into action instantly, shouting in the language of their island, and then two massive forces came blasting towards him.

Ye Qiu’s mouth curled into a smile, unfazed by the opponent’s attack, just as he had expected, they wouldn’t bring out their strongest power in just one move.

Ye Qiu’s body lunged with a curve, darting left and right, his hands becoming eagle claws, colliding directly with two men. Instantly, they were sent flying by Ye Qiu’s surging True Qi. Seizing the gap, Ye Qiu’s body once again drew back like a bowstring, he stomped hard with the soles of his feet, and in a single bound, he leaped onto the rooftop of the teahouse.

Seeing this scene, Fujikawa Ueno cursed under his breath, frustrated that Ye Qiu had escaped the encirclement.

He had not expected that Ye Qiu could cover dozens of meters in just two steps and jump to the top of the teahouse.

The move Ye Qiu used to extricate himself from danger was a result of his studies of the Eagle Snake Xuan Hand. The Eagle Snake Xuan Hand focused on attack, while his Snake Shadow eagles were the opposite, meant for self-preservation, especially useful for escaping from the situation he had just been surrounded in.

This was also the first time Ye Qiu had used it in front of others, and it indeed startled everyone.

At that moment, the two men who failed to stop Ye Qiu looked at him resentfully, chastising themselves for their negligence. Ye Qiu was much stronger than they had imagined.

Ye Qiu intentionally waved at Fujikawa Ueno, then turned around and jumped down.

Too arrogant!

Fujikawa Ueno was infuriated by the gesture. Seeing the other eight men standing around stupidly, he roared, "Chase him, at any cost."

Ye Qiu felt that his pursuers hadn’t given up; he was still in danger and hastily quickened his pace.

It was the dead of night, the cold wind biting.

Ye Qiu’s figure swiftly swept through the streets, with a number of shadows chasing after him.

Under the influence of his True Qi, he traversed several meters with each step, but even so, the shadows behind continued to follow closely.

"Such astonishing speed," Ye Qiu murmured in surprise. These men didn’t seem to be at the True Qi level; he couldn’t sense the aura of True Qi from them, but they were still keeping up.

Soon, Ye Qiu discovered why these men could catch up so quickly. Glancing back for a moment, he noticed something odd about the legs of the eight men—it seemed they weren’t human legs at all!

Beast-men!

The term flashed through his mind. It wasn’t surprising to think about it; if Cui Zisong could do it, there was no reason these others couldn’t.

No wonder numerous high-level martial artists had died overnight in the martial world; undoubtedly, these creatures had a hand in it.

Fujikawa Ueno was the Assassin, leading these eight transformed beast-men to hunt down Martial Artists.

Ye Qiu was certain that all of this was Fujikawa Ueno’s doing.

For the moment, the group sought to capture him, and Ye Qiu chose to flee, not out of fear, but to disperse their attacks.

As long as he could separate them and defeat them one by one, he was confident that he wouldn’t lose to Fujikawa Ueno in the end.

As Ye Qiu ran swiftly, the breath of those chasing him grew increasingly fierce. Ye Qiu noticed that they had started to make no attempt to hide that wild beast’s scent.

Looking back again, they had drawn even closer. At this hour, no one wandered the streets, especially not where Ye Qiu was fleeing, which was even more remote. This allowed the eight pursuers to fully transform into their beast forms, going on all fours and increasing their speed dramatically—it was astoundingly fast.

They’ve truly become beasts! Eight beast-men and one Fujikawa Ueno, tough to handle!

With no other choice, Ye Qiu had to change direction again and dashed toward Zhonggu Tang.
