It was indeed him!

After confirming their target, Ye Weiming immediately opened his mouth to remind March, “There’s a wound below his left rib. When attacking, remember to focus on that area!” March looked over when she heard what Ye Weiming said. She noticed that the area below Chou Ba’s left rib was bandaged.

At this moment, Ye Weiming had already started his attack. He aimed his sword right at Chou Ba’s forehead.

“Sinister brat, go and die!” Chou Ba pushed his palm out as he shouted furiously. Even from a distance away, Ye Weiming was able to feel the wind from his palm. It bore down on him until he wasn’t able to breath properly.

He was injured but a casual attack from him was still so powerful!

A level 25 master was actually so frightening!

Chou Ba’s palm attack was filled with internal energy, so Ye Weiming didn’t dare to receive it directly.

But, as the level of his sword skill increased, the agility and speed of reaction of his body increased exponentially too.

He turned the Green Blade Sword in his hand and performed a move from ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’, Lamb Chewing Peony. The shadows of the sword intertwined in the air. Chou Ba didn’t dare to chase after Ye Weiming recklessly. Ye Weiming pushed his toes against the ground and bent his body down while moving back. He easily dodged the frightening palm attack by Chou Ba.

While he was moving back, Ye Weiming remembered to remind March, who was planning to rush forward, to fight with Chou Ba directly. “We mustn’t fight with him using strength. Use concealed weapons!”

After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and a flying dagger flew furiously towards Chou Ba.

Woosh!

The moment the flying dagger left his hand, it turned into a ray of cold light. To increase the power of the dagger, Ye Weiming added a tinge of internal energy in his attack. This caused an ear-piercing shrill sound to form when the blade flew through the air.

Then, this flying dagger flew past Chou Ba’s left shoulder, missing him by around half an inch. It flew directly to the back and stabbed into the walls of the mine. It sunk all the way into the wall, leaving only the handle of the dagger out in the open air.

The accuracy of the concealed weapons were quite unsatisfactory because he hadn’t learned any concealed weapon techniques yet.

Ye Weiming’s concealed weapon technique wasn’t satisfactory but March’s performance was much better than his. The young lady raised her hand and a piece of cobble shot towards the wound below Chou Ba’s rib. It was extremely accurate. Even a man like Ye Weiming felt ashamed when he saw her attack.

March’s concealed weapon technique was much better than Ye Weiming’s, but it was still nothing to a level 25 master. Chou Ba waved his hand casually and the cobble flew away due to the wind from his palm before it could even touch his body.

“Continue!”

Ye Weiming gave an order again and then threw a flying dagger out once more. He cooperated with March’s cobble and started dealing long-range attacks at Chou Ba continuously. His accuracy wasn’t good but with his ‘every dog has his day’ spirit and the short distance between them, he managed to hit Chou Ba once or twice out of 10 throws. Chou Ba had to wave his hands to block the daggers.

The two of them took the chance when Chou Ba’s movement was restricted to attack him fearlessly. However, after five minutes, they only managed to deplete 300 points of blood from him. He blocked most of their attacks with his agile hands.

If there wasn’t the animal trap restricting his movement, Ye Weiming and March would most likely have been sent back to the revival point by now.

“Damn it, why is this fellow so powerful?” March couldn’t help but complain as she threw her concealed weapons out without stopping. “The mission I took was just a three-star mission. Why do I have to fight with such a strong boss? This is too much!”

“Don’t worry. The system won’t give us a mission that we can’t complete. Since it gave this mission to us, that means that this fellow still has some weakness. We can win.” As he spoke, Ye Weiming raised his hand and threw another flying dagger out. The dagger flew half an inch above Chou Ba’s head.

Chou Ba might have realized that his opponents’ attacks weren’t powerful or he might have noticed that he was depleting too much of his internal energy. Hence, after fighting for a while, he stopped using his internal energy to block the concealed weapons. Even so, the two people’s low-skilled attacks still couldn’t pose much of a threat to him.

After realizing this, Chou Ba gritted his teeth and ignored his two opponents’ concealed weapons attacks because he felt that his blood was thick enough. Instead, he bent down and grabbed the two sides of the animal trap with his hands. He started prying the animal trap open.

This is bad!

Ye Weiming knew that once Chou Ba pried opened the animal trap, even if he couldn’t regain his ability to move entirely, the two of them wouldn’t be able to attack him as easily as they were currently.

Based on their ability, Chou Ba would kill them within a second if they fought with him directly!

So, he had to stop Chou Ba!

As thoughts flashed across his mind, Ye Weiming kept his concealed weapons and took out his Green Blade Sword. He aimed his sword at the acupoint, Baihui, which was right in the center of Chou Ba’s bald head.

The acupoint Baihui was a vital acupoint of the human body. Ye Weiming’s ability might have been lower than Chou Ba’s but the latter still didn’t dare to ignore Ye Weiming’s attack. After all, Ye Weiming’s Green Blade Sword wasn’t a normal sword and Chou Ba didn’t practice the Iron Head Skill before.

This was an emergency, so Chou Ba couldn’t care about the animal trap anymore. He hurriedly gathered his internal energy and stuck his palm out to force Ye Weiming back.

But, when he released his hands, the half-opened animal trap was closed tightly again.

Clang!

“Ah!”

This one attack caused Chou Ba to drop 500 points of blood. The effect was even more obvious than the combined efforts of Ye Weiming and March after they attacked Chou Ba for such a long time. After the release and tightening of the animal trap, Chou Ba had lost feeling in his leg entirely. Even if he opened the animal trap now, he wouldn’t be able to move freely in a short period of time.

At the same time, March had already gotten close to him. While Chou Ba was using his palm to force Ye Weiming back, the animal trap dealt a second round of damage to his body, causing him to see stars because of the pain. March raised her hand and slapped his left temple.

“Slap!”

It was a solid blow. With the help of her internal energy, it was quite a powerful strike. It managed to cause a 300-point drop of blood for Chou Ba and he fell to the ground.

However, at this time, Chou Ba finally revealed his fierce and tough side as a bandit. Although he received several huge blows, he still managed to use his free leg to kick March when he was falling down, directly striking March’s chest.

Bang! The powerful and direct kick in her chest sent March flying back directly. After she landed on the ground, she rolled a few rounds before finally stopping.

If Chou Ba only had March as his opponent, he might be able to turn the tides around using this opportunity.

But, there was still another more frightening opponent, Ye Weiming!

While Chou Ba and March both suffered heavy injuries, Ye Weiming was on the move with his sword again. The Green Blade Sword gave off a frightening killing intent. It moved as quickly as lightning as it stabbed right at Chou Ba’s heart. The move he used was the fatal attack of ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’, Beauty Of A Sick Lady.

Chou Ba was just struck by March, so he was feeling very dizzy now. Also, the counterattack caused him his entire vital spirit. He had no energy left in his body now. He didn’t have enough time to recover his vital spirit, so he couldn’t resist Ye Weiming’s lethal blow. Thus, he rolled on the ground in a flurry to evade his fatal spot. But, his right arm was still cut by the sword. The wound was so deep that his bones were visible.

Instantly, Chou Ba couldn’t feel his right arm anymore.

Two of his four limbs were crippled but Chou Ba had a strong vigor of life, so he still stood up from the ground once again.

A boss was indeed hard to kill!

March had climbed up from the ground too. She popped a pill, used for restoring blood, into her mouth. She still had some lingering fears as she said, “This fellow’s attack is really powerful. I just managed to hit him but he made me lose two thirds of my blood. If I’m hit again, I will be killed immediately.”

Ye Weiming nodded. “The outcome has been decided. Continue kiting!”

The two of them started a new round of concealed weapons attack.

Flying daggers, cobbles… there was a paper bag thrown alongside all these things. When the paper bag was broken by Chou Ba’s palm, small white particles flew into the air. Chou Ba closed his eyes when he saw this. However, when the white particles landed on his wounds, it was so painful that he started screaming in agony once again.

March continued hurling cobbles at him while she asked, “What did you use as your concealed weapon?”

“It’s salt.”
