Xiao Shisan broke into a cold sweat in an instant.
He could not imagine that in a small place like Qingcheng, someone could sneak into the Xiao family silently and kill all the way to the Xiao family's backyard.
The defense system of this mansion is extremely advanced.
A huge amount of money was spent.
Not to mention people, even mosquitoes that want to fly in must be screened by the defense AI program to determine whether they are hazardous.
In other words...
The man behind is a master!
It's too late to say it, but it's soon.
The knife that Xiao Shisan flicked up with his thumb could barely block the killing intent from the man behind him.
"The strength attribute is not high."
In this extremely dangerous confrontation, Xiao Shisan made this judgment instantly.
If the opponent's strength attribute is extremely high, the force of the bounce of his Kodachi alone will not be able to block the opponent's killing move.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shisan's lips curved into a cruel sneer.
The katana still stayed in mid-air.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still.
Several thoughts ran through Xiao Shisan's mind.
Thinking about it is shocking.
It's all murderous intent.
For a true master, life and death are only a matter of seconds.
So he always only needs one knife to kill.
Time seems to have stopped...
Moved!
Xiao Shisan's right hand reached out like lightning, and held the katana in mid-air with incomparable precision.
His agility attribute is as high as 4.1, and his shooting speed and reaction are far beyond ordinary people.
After holding the katana, Xiao Shisan shook his right wrist, and the katana sank into the scabbard again.
At this moment, the man behind him also took back the fatal dagger.
But...it's slower than Xiao Shisan!
When masters fight, even a little mistake or a little hesitation can affect the outcome and determine...
life and death.
"The mysterious killer behind him doesn't have a high agility attribute!"
Xiao Shisan made a judgment again.
With just this attribute value, you can actually sneak into Xiao's house silently?
Xiao Shisan suddenly turned to the right, thrust out his right palm, and moved in one go.
Draw the knife!
Like lightning!
It’s so fast that you can barely see the trajectory of the knife!
Draw your sword and kill... Iai!
"Qiang!"
In the dark night, a dazzling white line instantly drew across!
That was the trajectory of Kodachi's drawn sword.
This is an ancient martial art that has almost been lost.
In this era, there are only a few people who are still obsessed with practicing this boring ancient martial art.
And those who are good at killing people with swords are even rarer.
Legend has it that if you practice the "sword drawing technique" to the extreme, you can even accurately split a bullet in two.
Although Xiao Shisan is not yet able to reach the ultimate state, the speed of his sword is more than enough to kill someone.
At the moment when the sword was drawn, Xiao Shisan used the corner of his eyes to glimpse the true face of the mysterious man behind him.
When he saw it clearly, a trace of fluctuation flashed in his cold eyes.
He never expected that a mysterious killer who could sneak into the Xiao family silently would turn out to be just an ordinary young man on the surface.
Their eyes met, and Xiao Shisan could even see a hint of surprise in the other person's eyes.
Ah.
The opponent must not have expected that he could block his killing blow.
But it's no longer important.
In Xiao Shisan's eyes, now that he has drawn the sword, the other party will definitely become a dead person.
Xiao Shisan's knife, as light as a white horse passing through the gap, slashed across Yi Lin's neck.
The essence of the sword-drawing technique begins with speed and ends with accuracy.
Xiao Shisan's knife had just passed Yi Lin's neck and was already sheathed.
"it's over."
Xiao Shisan had no expression on his face.
I actually feel a little bit of regret in my heart.
This young man had great potential. The silent knife from behind nearly cut Xiao Shisan's throat.
But, so what?
These are the cruel rules of the underground world.
It's not that the strong ones will definitely survive, but the ones who survive in the end...are the stronger ones.
Xiao Shisan was preparing to bury one more corpse.
But suddenly——
There was a sudden sharp pain in my neck!
From behind him, the same hand, the same dark red short knife, silently wiped his neck again.
The only difference from last time was that last time Xiao Shisan used his thumb to block the knife, but this time, he didn't block it.
The sharp blade severed his trachea and severed his carotid artery.
"How...gugu..."
Xiao Shisan only said two words, and the rest of the words could not be said anymore.
How can it be!
He clearly used the sword-drawing technique to cut off the opponent's neck.
How can it be false if you see it with your own eyes?
Could it be that there are actually two people behind you?
When did it come around behind him?
Xiao Shisan fell to the ground in despair.
He raised his head with difficulty, and for a moment, his face was filled with shock.
Where is there... anyone in front of him?
…
…
After Yi Lin confirmed that the knife-wielding guy was completely dead, he slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
If he could know what Xiao Shisan was thinking before he died, he would definitely admire him secretly.
Yi Lin's agility and strength attributes are not as good as Xiao Shisan's.
Xiao Shisan's agility attribute is probably quite high.
At least a bit taller than Yi Lin.
Moreover, Xiao Shisan has been practicing ancient martial arts for a long time and maximized his agility attributes.
But there was one thing that Xiao Shisan guessed wrong.
With Yi Lin's habit of thinking carefully before taking action, how could she not make a plan for "what to do if the first blow is blocked?"
In fact, when approaching Xiao Shisan's back, Yi Lin had already noticed the black scabbard on Xiao Shisan's waist.
In the shortest possible time, Yi Lin drew up 10 plans.
If the opponent blocks it with a knife, there are three follow-up plans...
If the opponent dodges it, there are 4 options for finishing the attack based on different body positions and angles...
If the wound is not deep enough, there are three plans...
If not for time constraints, Yi Lin would have to draw up at least 20 different plans to be safe enough.
"The sword-drawing technique? It's amazing."
Yi Lin murmured in a low voice, sincerely admiring him.
He casually picked up Xiao Shisan's weapon and looked at it for a moment.
Although the material is definitely not as good as the "Blood Jasmine" made of Star Steel, it looks like a good ancient sword.
"Just put it away for now. Unfortunately, I don't have time to ask this guy what the origin of this knife is."
Anyway, the storage space is very empty and is considered to be fully stocked.
Yi Lin recalled the scene just now and still felt unfinished.
The method of using the derivative skill of [Like a Shadow] has been initially developed.
And it was successfully used for the first time.
Theoretically, when an object is moving rapidly, after the image seen by the human eye disappears, the human eye can still retain its image for about 0.1-0.4 seconds. This phenomenon is called the "after-image phenomenon".
Of course, Yi Lin's agility attribute is not enough to leave an afterimage.
Not even close.
But the derivative skills he developed made use of similar principles.
The moment Xiao Shisan turned around, Yi Lin canceled the [Shadow Following] skill within 0.5 seconds. In the opponent's field of vision, Yi Lin's presence was strongest at this moment.
Use the shortest possible time to re-enter the state of [following like a shadow].
At this moment, Xiao Shisan's entire attention had already been attracted by Yi Lin when she had "the strongest sense of presence".
The more focused the human gaze is, the larger the blind spots will be.
The wider you look, the harder it is to concentrate.
Therefore, when Xiao Shisan focuses his attention on a certain point, there are relative "blind spots" all around him.
So Xiao Shisan didn't even notice that Yi Lin had circled behind him like a shadow in an instant.
This new derived skill sounds simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult and has many restrictions.
Determine the opponent's turning direction, dominant hand, knife release angle, blind spots in sight, darkness...all kinds of conditions are indispensable.
"The new skill is called... Shadow Leaving Traces."
This is not an apostle skill, it is just an application method derived from the skill, so I can only name it myself.
And...it cannot be authenticated.
Yi Lin is quite satisfied with her taste in naming.
Even if the new skill fails to be used, Yi Lin still has enough follow-up plans, such as... mind shock.
So... Yi Lin didn't panic at all.
Yi Lin noticed that there was a pit next to Xiao Shisan.
It was filled with corpses.
Yi Lin just gave a quick look, her expression slightly moved.
Xiao Mo was indeed crazy.
He even used a reward of 100 million as bait to attract more people to bury Henry Zhang.
Yi Lin sighed and was noncommittal about Xiao Mo's actions.
He himself is not a good person, but after all he has his own bottom line.
Yi Lin didn't want to think too much and kicked Xiao Shisan's body into the grave.
"It can be regarded as finding a burial ground for you."
Xiao Shisan still had a dead look on his face, and rolled down into the pit.
At this moment, a faint groan came from the pile of corpses.
