Super Soldier in the City - Chapter 2257 - 2321: So It Was Him!
Li Yifei had an object in his hand, it was a round object. As he ran, he threw it towards Mus.
The Saintess reacted as well, and struck towards Elder Mus’s shoulder.
Mus hadn’t expected there to be someone here, shock filled his heart, but he had already thrust the sword, it was impossible to pull back.
"Puff!" With a light sound, the Saintess still couldn’t dodge and was pierced by the knife, but it wasn’t the heart area, rather under the ribs, the knife piercing three inches in, Elder Mus’s arm was struck by the object Li Yifei threw, the next second, Li Yifei had already jumped over, Mus knew he couldn’t succeed, so he had to let go and turn to run. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
With this strike, Li Yifei made his arm throb in pain. As Mus was about to retreat, he saw Li Yifei, shock filled his heart instantly, a man with an Eastern face hidden in the Saintess’s residence, who else could it be but Golden Eagle. Alone against the Saintess, there was still some chance, but facing Li Yifei, there was absolutely no chance!
His original plan was to use this method for a second assassination of the Saintess, but who could have thought that a Golden Eagle was hidden here, the appearance of the other completely disrupted his plan, and when Elder Mus turned to escape, he saw the already ’arranged’ fleeing Babua, and in that instant Mus’s heart was filled with shock.
Li Yifei was faster than him, as Elder Mus prepared to leave, having just taken a few steps, Li Yifei surged forward, blocking him, sealing off the retreat, glaring fiercely at Mus.
"Elder Mus, why would you do this?" The Saintess still couldn’t believe it until now. Although she suspected him, whenever she thought of the deeds Elder Mus had done, she didn’t want to doubt him.
But the scene before her, the events that just occurred, all proved that the person behind her assassination was Elder Mus, that bright, oddly shaped knife was the one thrust by Elder Mus.
Mus’s gaze wasn’t on the Saintess or Li Yifei, but turned to Babua, the latter furious, pointed at Mus and shouted, "Damn Mus, so it was you framing me, you wanted to kill the Saintess, what are you here for?"
A strange smile appeared on Mus’s face, seemingly disdainful, looking at the three, said: "Didn’t think you’d outsmart me, haha, but do you think this will really trap me?"
"Mus, it’s not that I overestimate you, even if more came, it’d still be in vain!" Li Yifei said softly.
Mus abruptly turned around, still bearing that strange smile, filled with murderous intent, said: "Golden Eagle, or Li Yifei, you won’t be free for long. Even if you escape this time, you won’t escape next time!"
"Oh? From your tone, seems like you have a deep hatred towards me?" Li Yifei also smiled, but Mus didn’t reply, instead turning to the Saintess, looking at the knife in her ribs, shook his head and said: "What a pity, without these two, today would have been your end!"
"Elder Mus, I still want to call you once more, honestly, I suspected many people, even you, but quickly convinced myself not to suspect you, never thought it truly was you until now, and I still can’t understand why you’d do it!" The Saintess’s face showed pain, her heart saddened, finding it hard to believe, yet the reality was there, unbelief not an option.
Mus, however, laughed loudly and said: "Saintess, indeed there’s no animosity between us, but I still hope you die, haha, don’t ask why, historically hatred can exist without reason!"
This sentence was like a knife stabbing the Saintess’s chest, she showed sadness, while Babua couldn’t help but say: "Mus, I’ve known you for over eighty years, never seen through that you’re such a despicable person. Compared to you, I’m practically a good man!"
"When people have enough interest, they can sell anything or anyone, as long as it’s worth it. You’ve caught me today, I have nothing to say. In Huaxia there’s a saying, only the successful can be emperor. If I were you, I’d kill me now instead of standing here talking!" Mus said arrogantly.
Li Yifei was about to take action, but the Saintess signaled him with her eyes not to hurry, and Li Yifei nodded, understanding her meaning, even if Mus deserves death, he definitely can’t be the one to kill him.
Originally, Li Yifei’s appearance at the headquarters of the Holy War Organization was not permitted. If Elder Mus were killed, then according to the Holy War Organization’s rules, even if Mus deserved to die, Li Yifei would be implicated.
"Elder Mus, since you say so, I have nothing to say either. Let’s wait for Elder Andisto and the others to arrive, and go through the Elder’s Council for judgment!" The Saintess stepped back two steps, with Li Yifei blocking the door. She wasn’t worried that Mus would escape through the door.
"Haha... hahaha!" Mus laughed towards the sky, and after laughing enough, he said, "I’ve lived my life, how could I let others judge me? This time I’ve lost, but I won’t let you judge me either!"
With that, Mus raised his hand, and a cold gleam slipped from his sleeve. The Saintess was shocked and shouted, "Stop!"
Babua was also helpless, but Li Yifei suddenly acted, as he had prepared for the opponent to escape or commit suicide. So upon hearing Mus’s words, he knew the opponent was about to commit suicide. Li Yifei even began to act in advance, using his movement technique to swiftly approach Mus. A white blade aura slashed down, directly severing Mus’s arm holding the cold gleam, and both the arm and the gleam flew aside, while Mus himself grunted in pain.
But that wasn’t the end; Li Yifei advanced aggressively, striking Mus’s shoulder with one palm, then grabbing his collar with the other hand. With a heavy palm, Mus’s body lowered, and he was directly slammed to the ground by Li Yifei’s palm.
"Stop!" A group rushed in, witnessing Li Yifei attacking Mus. Leading the group was Andrew, who charged forward like a bull, pounding his foot repeatedly upon seeing Li Yifei attack Mus, and rushed towards Li Yifei with his massive fist.
"Elder Andrew!" The Saintess shouted, yet saw Li Yifei push Mus to the ground, then use his waist strength to turn and face Andrew, who came swinging his large fist, seemingly capable of crushing Li Yifei’s head with a single punch. But Li Yifei didn’t dodge; instead, with a delayed response, he too punched forward!
"Bang!" A muffled sound came from the two fists’ collision, causing Li Yifei to step back one and a half steps. By the second step, he was steady, although the stone slab beneath his foot was crushed. Meanwhile, Andrew, known for his strength, retreated four steps and only stopped because someone behind reached out to support him.
Li Yifei released his clenched fist, the collision point of his hand had reddened. True Qi circulated, alleviating the crushing pain. He grinned, revealing white teeth, and smiled provocatively at Andrew.
Andrew was shocked by the strength of the yellow-skinned man before him; he had charged forward, yet the opponent received his punch in place. Despite that, Andrew was forced to retreat several steps, revealing the opponent’s significant power.
Where did this man come from? Andrew couldn’t help but think. However, seeing the other’s demeanor, Andrew snorted heavily; he feared no one in a contest of strength, having challenged everyone significant in the entire Holy War Organization.
Those behind Andrew were different. Led by Grand Elder Andisto, a group of elders stood there, stunned upon seeing Li Yifei. They certainly noted the punch exchange between him and Andrew, and the experience shocked them, but outwardly, they remained composed.
"Again!" Andrew shouted loudly, clashing his two fists together, producing a loud bang, even sending a wave of air outward. Meanwhile, Li Yifei retained the same expression, with no change in posture as Andrew charged forward. Li Yifei then executed a move akin to Tai Chi.
What technique works best against brute force? Naturally, it’s to use force against force, by borrowing strength to counter strength. Li Yifei used simple moves to dissolve Andrew’s mighty attack, even turning the tables. Two moves disassembled, borrowing Andrew’s strength to push him back. This time, although Andrew was prepared, he staggered several steps, eyes wide in surprise at Li Yifei.
"Continue?" Li Yifei asked with a smile.
In these exchanges, Li Yifei gauged Andrew’s formidable strength, comparable to that of Satan earlier, in terms of power and body robustness. To defeat him required considerable effort, though fortunately Li Yifei was equally powerful. With Andrew pushed back twice, in terms of momentum, Andrew began to weaken – thrice strikes and he would yield. During his third attempt to advance, Andisto stopped him, saying, "Andrew, there’s no need to test further; this young man should be that Huaxia’s Golden Eagle."
Andisto knew Li Yifei from photos, and even had some understanding of his information, though only recently. Previously, Li Yifei didn’t catch Andisto’s eye, but after he killed Satan, he became a significant target for Holy War Organization’s focus, partly due to the Saintess’s personal concerns.
Li Yifei looked at Andisto, the one who orchestrated the kidnapping of his child, or at least agreed to it. Theoretically, this was his enemy, but at the moment, Li Yifei couldn’t avenge this grudge, as timing and place were inappropriate. Li Yifei simply glanced at him, seeing Andrew no longer advancing. He stood with hands behind his back, while Mus lay unconscious beside him, with the Saintess and Babua casting various expressions at those opposite.
