Chapter 240: He appeared again!

"There must be a problem somewhere; his True Qi shield has a flaw!"

At this moment, Ye Qiu wasn’t worried about the threat posed by Fujikawa Ueno, but rather thinking about why his True Qi shield was cut through.

If it had been that mysterious person, the True Qi shield probably wouldn’t have broken.

Through his encounter with Fujikawa Ueno, Ye Qiu had discovered the inadequacies of his True Qi shield and knew he needed to improve it.

Seeing Ye Qiu distracted, Fujikawa Ueno sneered, "You won’t be so lucky next time."

Ye Qiu was injured, and the other three mutants blocked his way again. Fujikawa Ueno’s recently demonstrated strength brought strong confidence to the trio, and Ye Qiu couldn’t escape the crisis he was now facing.

With myriad thoughts swirling in his mind, to be honest, that strike from Fujikawa Ueno had been stunningly impressive; even Ye Qiu would need more time to execute a move as flawlessly as Fujikawa Ueno had.

Lost in thought, Ye Qiu neglected his bleeding arm and only came to his senses after a long while, just in time to notice that Fujikawa Ueno was preparing for the second strike.

Ye Qiu dared not give his opponent another chance to attack him full force. If it weren’t for his quick reflexes, dodging Fujikawa Ueno’s attack before it landed, he would have bled even more.

Fujikawa Ueno, through his actions, signaled to Ye Qiu that he wouldn’t stop there. As the second strike was on its way, Ye Qiu wanted to turn and run, but the three mutants stood blocking his way, clearly not about to let him leave easily.

Looking at the trio, whose eyes held far less hesitation than before, it was clear that Fujikawa Ueno had greatly motivated them.

With his arm injured, Ye Qiu’s thoughts stirred, and the True Qi sealed off the bleeding vessel. Now able to use only one arm, the situation was arguably the worst it could be.

"You’ve killed so many of our brothers, even if it costs us our lives today, we’re going to stop you from leaving." One of the three spoke, his eyes brimming with murderous intent; perhaps Fujiwaka Ueno’s confidence had emboldened them no longer to fear Ye Qiu.

The three mutants, seemingly resolute in their decision to entangle him, made it not so easy for Ye Qiu to leave.

"If you think you can keep me here, I wonder if you truly have the capability," Ye Qiu replied with a cold laugh. He didn’t take the three seriously. Even as Fujikawa Ueno tautly prepared for a major move, Ye Qiu remained unfazed at heart.

The three mutants immediately surrounded Ye Qiu, taking turns attacking him.

Ye Qiu could only fight with one hand, losing the sharpness of his initial stance. Using one hand for both offense and defense, he struggled; perhaps the trio had seen this weakness, which is why they dared to advance.

As he struggled to free himself from the trio’s clutches, with Fujikawa Ueno’s second strike impending, Ye Qiu felt a surge of urgency. His True Qi shield no longer ensured his safety against Fujikawa Ueno, and any misstep might cause him further injury.

Ye Qiu suddenly found himself in a dilemma; unable to execute the Eagle Snake Xuan Hand, his True Qi shield incapacitated, and the three mutants growing more frenzied.

Ye Qiu’s situation grew increasingly difficult.

"Today, you won’t be able to escape, and no one will come to rescue you because no one knows you’re here."

The opponent was right, Ye Qiu was in grave danger. If his arm hadn’t been injured, perhaps he might have escaped; but now, handling three alone with just one hand, he was clearly struggling.

The battle gradually shifted in favor of the three mutants, Ye Qiu’s True Qi steadily drained, and Fujikawa Ueno’s move was almost ready.

Just then, a tall figure slowly appeared on one side of the battlefield, watching the fight between Ye Qiu and the mutants.

He only showed a subtle change in expression when he occasionally spotted Ye Qiu using the True Qi shield.

He slowly advanced, and even Fujikawa Ueno’s preparation for his move couldn’t distract him too much.

Silently, this man made his way into their battlefield.

Ye Qiu was exhausted combating the three mutants, who, relying on the power of their beast-like transformations, continuously drained his True Qi, even landing two punches on Ye Qiu.

The situation was getting worse.

Ye Qiu had no way to disengage and inform the people of South Martial Realm that Fujikawa Ueno was indeed the black-clothed assassin.

Now, his only reliance was the unexpected attacks of Ruyi True Qi, converting the True Qi into various assaults and forcing the three mutants to keep retreating, thus giving him a chance to catch his breath.

However, the consumption of Ruyi True Qi was also immense, having leaped out from the teahouse and clashed with Fujikawa Ueno and his men, his True Qi had dwindled to less than four layers, and he saw the crisis approaching rapidly.

Just as Ye Qiu was distressed over how to escape, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a figure that had suddenly appeared.

In the dark night, the face of this person was partially shrouded in shadow, but his tall and strong build was thoroughly imposing. Despite having seen this person several times, each encounter made Ye Qiu’s heart flutter with a sense of terror.

The mysterious person had appeared!

Ye Qiu couldn’t understand why this person had suddenly appeared here. Immediately after, Ye Qiu’s tense expression suddenly changed, revealing a mysteriously inexplicable smile.

The three mutants, seeing Ye Qiu smile, couldn’t help saying, "Facing death yet you can still smile."

Ye Qiu didn’t explain, but instead, continued to engage with the three mutants, gradually moving closer to the mysterious person.

The three mutants failed to notice the sudden appearance of the mysterious person, who seemed as if he was a feather floating silently in mid-air.

When the mutants realized that the mysterious person had somehow appeared behind them at some unknown time, they were all secretly alarmed, wondering who this peculiar fellow was and why he had appeared here.

"Hey, what are you doing here, thinking of interfering?" one mutant exclaimed sharply.

However, the mysterious person acted as if he heard nothing, continuing to approach silently.

It was not until the first person made a move against the mysterious person that they realized, this suddenly emerging figure was terrifyingly skilled.

One hand!

Ye Qiu saw the same one-handed approach, yet the mysterious person’s hand was far more formidable, easily overcoming the three mutants.

The sudden appearance of the mysterious person disrupted the situation, and with the help of his skills, Ye Qiu successfully dealt with the three mutants.

The mysterious person gazed at the half-human, half-beast forms of the three mutants, his eyes showing trance-like fascination, seemingly also flashing a hint of interest.

The mysterious person was too strong, even with one hand he made the three collapse thoroughly, but he didn’t kill them. Instead, he grabbed one mutant with a large hand, and under a constant gaze of curiosity, after observing the caught mutant for a few moments, casually tossed him aside.

None of the three mutants could escape.

At that moment Fujikawa Ueno, who had been preparing his attack until the last moment, suddenly turned his gaze upon noticing, and looked directly at the mysterious person.

Instantly, Fujikawa Ueno felt as if he had been struck by lightning, his hands trembling, his katana clattering to the ground, and the power he was previously gathering dissipated in an instant.

He was horrified, wondering who exactly was this person, as even the oppressive feeling from eye contact felt like a massive mountain loomed before him.

Could it be someone above the True Qi realm?

At this thought, Fujikawa Ueno’s heart leaped, a surge of heat rising within him.
