This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!-Chapter 341 - 70: Puzzle Solving, Gunshot_2
Chapter 341 -70: Puzzle Solving, Gunshot_2
“The potential medicinal reaction could cause the heart’s Qi-Blood to flow in reverse, agitating the Wood Attribute Innate Qi and consequently triggering changes in the Fire Attribute Innate Qi….”
Li Fei wrote down the answer on a piece of paper.
The ‘specific condition’ in this question referred to the internal environment of a Tao Foundation Stage powerhouse, so his answer also involved multiple types of Innate Qi.
After Mo Yizhou read the answer, he nodded with satisfaction, “Not bad.”
Then he pulled out a blank sheet and began to write on it.
Minutes later, he handed the freshly written sheet to Li Fei:
“This is your homework for tomorrow.”
After glancing at the sheet, Li Fei found a new ‘problem,’ except this time the medicinal ingredients had changed, with two new ones added.
He immediately understood.
In fact, Mo Yizhou was also solving a problem that he had yet to unravel; what he gave to Li Fei was just part of the problem.
That problem was the poison affecting Zhang Zongyang!
“Alright, the student will come again tomorrow.”
Li Fei bowed to Mo Yizhou.
He couldn’t afford to spend the entire day on this.
After leaving the laboratory, Li Fei had dinner in the cafeteria and then completed his training in [Illusion Leaf].
The [Illusion Leaf] was still in the Body Breaking Middle Stage and would need more time to reach the Body Breaking Late Stage.
Afterward, Li Fei left Wuda, planning to visit Zhao Yi’s residence first.
As usual, he entered a bustling urban area, then ventured into some complex streets and alleys.
By repeatedly navigating the intricate terrain, he could determine if he was being followed.
If so, he could shake them off using the landscape.
“Hmm?”
Just passing through the bustling area, Li Fei faintly felt he was being watched.
He then walked into the pre-selected alleyways as though nothing was amiss.
Minutes later, Li Fei confirmed he was being followed.
“Which power faction is trying to eliminate me, this threat, ahead of time?”
Li Fei thought to himself.
The news of his breakthrough had just been released today, and he was being tracked tonight; that was the most likely explanation.
The best way to deal with an extraordinary prodigy like him was to eliminate him before he could fully grow.
So after the news of his advancement to the Qi Change Late Stage spread, someone couldn’t wait any longer.
Li Fei intentionally slowed his pace, looking to lure out whoever was following him.
In fact, compared to the Green-faced Ghost, his true identity was even safer, as no one would use a force fit to deal with the Green-faced Ghost King on just a Wuda student in the Qi Change Late Stage, even if that student was an extraordinary prodigy.
It’s like if a knife-wielding thug appears somewhere, the normal response would be to send the police, and if that fails, deploy the SWAT.
No one would reach for artillery as the first response…
This misalignment of identities is the greatest protection for Li Fei himself.
In fact, up to this point, there must have been certain flaws in the switching of identities between Li Fei and the Green-faced Ghost, such as the two never appearing together—one disappears, and the other emerges.
But this flaw was negligible, as in this world, aside from Shangguan Xiao, no one would associate Li Fei with the Green-faced Ghost King.
It is as if someone told you that your desk-mate secretly went to fight in underground boxing matches after school every day and had become the underground boxing champion.
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
You would only think the person was crazy and advise them to read less fiction on the web…
This was Li Fei’s mindset; the only thing he needed to consider was how much strength his true self had to reveal to resolve this crisis.
But minutes later, that vague sense of being watched suddenly vanished.
Li Fei was taken aback.
“Not planning to make a move tonight, just scouting?”
After circling the alleys for over thirty minutes and ensuring no one was following, he stepped into a shadow to perform the One Leaf Covering Eyes Technique, then activated Vajra Force, deploying a new Seal.
This was a new Seal Li Fei had just learned—Vajra Seal·Treasure Vase!
This Seal’s effect was to retract one’s body, mind, and intentions, gathering all of one’s essence, Qi, and spirit, as if into a treasure vase.
It was a maneuver specifically for concealment.
Li Fei combined the Vajra Seal·Treasure Vase with the One Leaf Covering Eyes Technique, making it very difficult for even the Tao Foundation Stage experts skilled in perception to detect him, and tracking magic was similarly ineffective against him.
With these two techniques at his disposal, Li Fei would no longer need to go out of his way to prepare Chicken Crown Blood.
He moved silently through the shadows, and after traversing several streets, he began heading towards Zhao Yi’s residence.
Forty minutes later, Li Fei knocked on the door of Zhao Yi’s home.
Zhao Yi opened the door for him, and after they exchanged glances, Li Fei entered the room.
“How’s your injury?”
Li Fei asked.
During the ambush on the wasteland, Zhao Yi had been shot in the forearm and sustained a gunshot wound.
Afterwards, Li Fei had made it a point to understand the situation during that battle and knew the significant role Zhao Yi played in it.
He was actually somewhat surprised that Zhao Yi had chosen to stay at that time, rather than leave quietly, which was why he expressed his concern as soon as they met today.
“It’s fine now.”
Zhao Yi replied coldly.
“That’s good to hear.”
Li Fei didn’t inquire further and took out the Dream Command from his bosom, handing it over to the other party, “Let’s begin.”
It was time to “charge” the Dream Command again.
…
While Li Fei was at Zhao Yi’s residence “charging” the Dream Command, a group of seven or eight people were gathered in a courtyard, discussing him:
“We’ve confirmed that the target indeed left Wuda alone, with no one following behind.”
“The target has a certain anti-tracking awareness, very vigilant.”
“The route map of where the target went out tonight has been drawn up.”
“…”
A man in a gray leather jacket listened to everyone’s reports and then nodded:
“Good work, start devising the plan.”
The man, nicknamed ‘Bullet Shell,’ was the leader of an assassination team from the provincial capital.
They were a team hired with a hefty sum from the provincial city, with the objective of assassinating Li Fei!
Of course, the most formidable assassin organization in Feng Province was Shadow Building, but the Shadow King had publicly announced he would no longer accept any commissions related to the Green-faced Ghost, hence the job fell into the hands of ‘Bullet Shell.’
He was a Refining Strength Martial Master at the peak of the Qi Change Stage and also a divine marksman.
Like those top-level gunmen under the Gun King, he followed the path of Gunpowder Martial Arts, possessing extraordinary abilities and practicing Martial Arts that enhanced the firepower of firearms.
The team led by ‘Bullet Shell’ was highly professional, having even assassinated more than one Tao Foundation Stage expert in the past!
Being hired to assassinate a student from Wuda who had just broken through to the Late Stage of Qi Change seemed somewhat like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
However, ‘Bullet Shell’ did not take it lightly.
His principle was that as long as it was ‘business,’ it had to be given a hundred percent effort.
Even if someone hired them to assassinate a dog, as long as the money was right, ‘Bullet Shell’ would bring his full attention to the kill.
The plan to assassinate Li Fei was the same as always: gather information in the early stages, scout locations, analyze, and then formulate a combat strategy.
“They say he’s a peerless talent, does Wuda really trust his safety so much they don’t assign someone to secretly protect him?”
Someone raised a question.
Bullet Shell replied seriously, “The target is already at the strength of the Late Stage of Qi Change, and definitely much stronger than Martial Artists of the same realm. To protect him, should they assign a Tao Foundation Stage expert to constantly follow him in secret? That’s definitely not realistic.
Besides, there have been many peerless talents throughout history who died prematurely; a talent who hasn’t grown up is not a real talent. Wuda can protect him for a while, but not for a lifetime, and that doesn’t align with Wuda’s philosophy of training its students.”
“A real talent knows how to protect themselves. For the target to go out alone late at night to an area with few people and poor security, if he dies, it’s his own fault!”
‘Bullet Shell’ concluded in the end.
“The boss makes sense!”
The rest agreed in unison.
“Alright, prepare the combat plan. We’ve killed quite a few Tao Foundation Stage experts, it will be nice to add a future star on the Fengyun List to the list,”
‘Bullet Shell’ said.
