Chapter 119 Black Flame

As Shi Feng walked onto the field, everyone's attention turned to him.

He wore a black cloak, completely obscuring his face, but the two long swords hanging from his waist suggested he was a swordsman.

"This kid's got a death wish, daring to interrupt the boss's fun!"

"He's really asking for it."

"Even if he's going to die anyway, why is he in such a hurry?"

"The boss is definitely pissed, he's in for a world of hurt."

...

Although the Underworld members were surprised that Shi Feng had stepped in to save someone, they looked at him with more pity and admiration.

If he had done nothing, Gui Yi would have at least given him a quick death. Now that he had interrupted Gui Yi's entertainment, even a quick death was out of the question.

Gui Yi was known for his cruelty within Underworld.

A player had once disturbed Gui Yi's entertainment, and Gui Yi had slowly whittled away his health point by point with his blade, even healing the victim in between attacks. Most expert players would set a certain level of pain sensitivity, which couldn't be turned off during combat.

Just thinking about it made them shudder.

They could foresee the same fate awaiting Shi Feng.

"Did he save me?" An Tong looked at Shi Feng with surprise.

He never expected this stranger to step in and help him. He thought someone like Shi Feng would distance himself from the situation to avoid getting involved.

But even if Shi Feng had saved him once, it wouldn't change the outcome.

They were trapped by a magic array, and the Scroll of Sensory Obscurity had been activated. It would take an unknown amount of time for the NPC guards to arrive, and in that time, Gui Yi could kill them several times over.

"This person is..."

You Lan looked at Shi Feng and felt that his figure was somewhat familiar, and his voice sounded like she had heard it before.

"So, it was you, kid?" Gui Yi wasn't in a hurry to attack. He sized up Shi Feng and a cold smile crept onto his face. "You've got guts. I was originally thinking of letting a passerby like you live, but now I've changed my mind."

"Let a passerby like me live?" Shi Feng scoffed. "Spare me your devilish benevolence. You'd be better off figuring out how to kill us before the NPC guards arrive and make a safe escape."

Giving hope before bestowing despair was even more terrifying than simply giving despair.

For ordinary players, they would definitely regret meddling in other people's business, but this little trick was a joke to Shi Feng, who had been through so much in God's Domain.

"You saw through me?" Gui Yi didn't try to hide anything after seeing Shi Feng wasn't falling for it. He licked his lips and chuckled, "Indeed, I never intended to let a passerby like you go, but your actions will only make your death more painful."

"Kid, you'll regret your foolish actions. Everyone else, keep an eye on An Tong and You Lan. Die Bu Mingmu, you pay attention to healing this kid. I don't want the fight to end too quickly!"

"Don't worry, boss. As long as you don't say stop, I guarantee this kid will have a hard time even dying."

With Gui Yi's command, the Underworld members locked onto An Tong, You Lan, and the others. If An Tong and You Lan made any moves, they would attack simultaneously. A level 47 blue-robed priest also looked at Shi Feng, ready to cast spells, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes.

Before he finished speaking, Gui Yi suddenly appeared behind Shi Feng.

Shadow Step!

The jet-black dagger was like a viper, arcing through the air.

Kidney Shot!

It aimed directly at Shi Feng's abdomen from his blind spot, while another silver dagger slashed towards Shi Feng's temple.

"Not good! It's Gui Yi's Serpent Shadow Dual Kill!" An Tong's expression darkened as he watched the black and white shadows attack Shi Feng.

When faced with an incoming attack, most people would instinctively try to block, thus ignoring attacks from other directions. Gui Yi's dark and light combination was not only lightning fast, but the two attacks also landed almost simultaneously, making it impossible to defend against.

This technique seemed simple, but it was very difficult to instantly perceive the opponent's blind spot, and then launch attacks with no wasted movements, with no time difference between the two attacks.

Gui Yi had killed many experts with this move.

Just as the black and white daggers were about to hit Shi Feng, a cyan sword light suddenly bloomed.

Bang!

With a muffled sound and sparks flying, Gui Yi stumbled back two steps. Shi Feng still stood there unharmed, while Gui Yi's health had dropped by one or two hundred points.

"This... how... is this possible?"

The Underworld members stared with their mouths wide open as Gui Yi was knocked back. Die Bu Mingmu, who was preparing to heal Shi Feng, almost popped his eyes out.

Serpent Shadow Dual Kill was Gui Yi's signature combat skill.

"No way!" An Tong looked at Shi Feng in disbelief.

One strike had forced back Underworld's number one assassin…

And judging from Shi Feng's expression, he clearly wasn't satisfied with the sword strike he had just unleashed.

An Tong didn't know that if Shi Feng's basic attributes hadn't been suppressed by 50% by the Armor of Damnation, Gui Yi would have been crippled or killed, not just forced back a couple of steps.

Gui Yi looked at his trembling arm, turned to Shi Feng, and asked with a serious expression, "Who exactly are you?"

Even Gui Yi could tell that Shi Feng wasn't simple.

He had broken his Serpent Shadow Dual Kill with just one sword strike, and even he could barely catch a glimpse of the sword light. This was definitely not something an ordinary expert could do.

"Who am I? I'm just an ordinary passerby that you wanted to kill," Shi Feng said with a smile.

"An ordinary passerby can block my Serpent Shadow Dual Kill? Even experts at the micro level can be killed by this technique if they're not careful," Gui Yi said, staring intently at Shi Feng, feeling very annoyed.

He had come to White River City just to kill An Tong, You Lan, and the others, but now a Cheng Yaojin (unexpected obstacle) had appeared…

"Is that Serpent Shadow Dual Kill? It's nothing much," Shi Feng thought, noting that Gui Yi had indeed launched two attacks simultaneously, but he hadn't paid much attention to it.

Having reached the Realm of Vacuum, the movements around him were already reflected deep within his mind. What was a blind spot to ordinary players was nothing to him. To him, it would be more effective to launch several attacks at the same time.

"What arrogance!"

"Boss, let us kill him! I want to see what this kid is capable of!"

The Underworld members were furious and eager to attack. As long as Gui Yi gave the order, they could easily kill Shi Feng on the spot.

"I don't know who you are, but An Tong and You Lan behind you are the people our Underworld has designated for assassination. You can't bear the consequences of angering our Underworld!" Gui Yi said coldly, looking calmly at Shi Feng.

"Boss, why are you wasting time talking to him? Let's kill this kid now and show him how tough we are!" The Underworld members looked at Shi Feng as if he were a dead man.

"Can't bear the wrath of your Underworld?" Shi Feng smiled, then removed his black cloak, revealing the appearance of the Demon Mask, "I'm very curious, what can your Underworld do to my Black Flame?"
