Chapter 378 Acknowledging a Thief as Father and Card Failure

By the stream.

Qiao Yu placed a large, hollowed-out tree stump over his body and quietly moved his feet, trying to confuse his pursuer and slip away.

This was his one hundred and thirty-fourth attempt.

Just after realizing that he couldn't beat or outrun the fish, he started trying to outsmart it.

He refused to believe that he, a dignified living person, had less intelligence than a fish.

He had tried to act like a rock, a bush, and even used the trick of impersonating a mother fish to seduce it.

But he was seen through by this damned fish every time, and was beaten black and blue each time as well.

This time, he believed he would definitely succeed!

Because he discovered that the fish was starting to get sleepy and doze off!

"Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me..."

Qiao Yu muttered to himself, slowly moving outwards. He didn't know what Bai Shiyan had done, but he found that even the Inner World Network was unusable here.

He didn't have much time to waste, he had to leave here as soon as possible and notify Ji Pingyang that Su City was a huge trap.

What Qiao Yu didn't realize was that the fish's half-closed eyes were filled with ridicule towards him.

Sure enough, as soon as Qiao Yu walked out of a certain range, a fish tail slammed over again.

This time, it struck Qiao Yu's chest.

Qiao Yu felt as if he had been hit by a waterfall, his entire chest was in intense pain, and he opened his mouth and spat out a large mouthful of blood.

"I'll be damned, I can't take it anymore, you damned fish!"

Qiao Yu was completely enraged. He directly took out the Fang Tian Halberd and the last Recognize the Thief as Father Card.

"If you don't abandon me! I'm willing to become your adopted son!"

The Recognize the Thief as Father Card turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the fish.

Just as Qiao Yu was preparing to use the Fang Tian Halberd to deliver a fatal blow to the fish, the Recognize the Thief as Father Card returned to his hand again.

[Recognize the Thief as Father Card failed. Players can only recognize living beings as their adopted father. The current target is not a living being.]

Qiao Yu was stunned.

This fish wasn't a living being, so that meant... it was a dead fish?

But how could a dead fish be so lifelike? Could it be...

Qiao Yu used his Ghost Eyes to carefully observe the fish.

He discovered that the fish was indeed dead, but there was a strange force inside the fish supporting its movements.

That force was very similar to the Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist used by Bai Shiyan, and it looked even clearer.

It flowed slowly in the fish's body, like a babbling stream.

"I wonder if the Ghost Eyes Thousand Soldier Path can imitate it..."

Qiao Yu muttered to himself. The skill description of the Ghost Eyes Thousand Soldier Path was that it could imitate any melee skill.

The Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist was a fist technique, so it should be considered melee, right?

The deep blue eyes instantly lit up, and a strange and powerful force instantly surged into Qiao Yu's fists!

"It really works!" Qiao Yu's eyes were full of surprise! The next second, a reminder sounded.

[Health -12000]

[Rage status is full.]

Qiao Yu: "..."

Qiao Yu had a toothache. What level of skill was this Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist? Just imitating it on a fish cost him 12,000 health?

He suddenly felt very fortunate that he hadn't used the Ghost Eyes Thousand Soldier Path to imitate Bai Shiyan just now, otherwise he estimated that he would have shown Bai Shiyan what it meant to commit suicide on the spot.

But this powerful force!

Qiao Yu's eyes were full of heat. This loss of 12,000 health was worth it!

Feeling the power covering his hands, Qiao Yu clearly felt the force points of this fist technique for the first time.

The force of the Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist was like a peaceful wave, pushing forward layer by layer, using this to deflect the force of others' attacks.

And it could also condense power, squeezing the waves in the fist force into a monstrous tsunami! Creating an instant super-high burst!

In general, this fist technique was both offensive and defensive, and extremely powerful!

"You dead fish, it's my turn!"

Qiao Yu waved the Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist and attacked the fish. The fish also refused to be outdone, fanning its tail and attacking him.

The two of them, one man and one fish, used the same fist technique and fought continuously.

Qiao Yu's understanding of the Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist became more and more profound in this back-and-forth exchange.

He vaguely felt that when he could defeat this dead fish, perhaps he could really learn this set of fist techniques with the Ghost Eyes!

"Oh? Imitating so well so quickly? As expected of a child with half the Bai family's blood flowing in his body!"

Bai Shiyan's eyes flashed in the distance, and there was a hint of a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"However, without my core mantra, not knowing the force points, your Flowing Water Hundred Transformations Fist is just a show."

Bai Shiyan shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He had more important things to do now!

Ji Pingyang finally couldn't help but take action after waiting for a long time!

As the mayor of Su City, Fang Biao Zhi wasn't very familiar with Ji Pingyang, but they had met once.

Ji Pingyang couldn't stand by and watch this mayor die in front of him.

"Zheng!"

The Kunwu Sword was instantly unsheathed, and a terrifying sword energy slashed towards the Wood King.

"Wooden Barrier!"

A defense made of fine wood instantly rose from the ground.

But who was Ji Pingyang? Even if the Wood King was prepared, he still couldn't stop Ji Pingyang in the slightest.

Rumble!

The wooden barrier was directly cut into several pieces by Ji Pingyang's sword. The Wood King himself was also affected, and several sword wounds were cut on his body, and blood flowed out.

Just as Ji Pingyang was about to reach out and rescue Fang Biao Zhi, a sword light slashed towards him!

Ji Pingyang frowned and could only withdraw his hand first.

If he continued to move forward, the sword light would cut off his hand.

"Who is it? It turns out to be a loser." Ji Pingyang's tone was calm.

The Sword King, who came out of the wooden house, was not so calm. His monkey-like face was full of resentment.

"Ji Pingyang, what are you so arrogant about? At the end of the internal beta three years ago, you only won by one move!"

The Sword King's tone was full of resentment. Losing the title of No. 1 Sword Cultivator was the greatest pain in his life.

"You also know that was three years ago." Ji Pingyang shook his head: "You have lost the sword heart that a sword cultivator should have. Now you are even less of an opponent for me."

"You're farting!"

The Sword King was directly enraged, rushed forward and slashed out with a sword, and a terrifying sword intent rose into the sky! It seemed that even the air could be directly cut open.

"One Sword Opens the Sky!"

The Sword King's sword turned into a huge sword shadow that stood tall! Heavier towards Ji Pingyang!

It seemed that even the sky would be cut in half by this sword!

However, facing such terrifying sword intent, Ji Pingyang shook his head in disdain.

"Sword King, since you lost to me three years ago, I thought you would know your shame and be brave, but I never thought that you have not made any progress. It's just empty momentum."

"The sword is for killing people, not for showing off skills."

Ji Pingyang closed his eyes tightly and slowly placed the Kunwu Sword horizontally in front of his chest.

"Look carefully, this is the real sword!"

"One Sword Levels Yang!"
