"Hmph, two little brats, I admit you are both favored by heaven, but unfortunately, I have killed no less than eighty, if not a hundred, such favored individuals! Those brats from the mysterious departments, hmph, they reported to their superiors that they died at the hands of the corpse monsters, but I can tell you two now, in reality, all of them died at my hands, hahahaha..."
Liu Wencai said smugly, gathering his strength as he spoke!
Su Han knew in his heart that this old fellow was deliberately provoking him, aiming to make him angry so he could launch a surprise attack.
However, Su Han wasn't bothered now. After all, his strength was evident, and he didn't care what tricks Liu Wencai might play. Even if the old man turned the heavens upside down, he wouldn't be able to defeat him.
Looking at Song Xinran, his attendant, Su Han said, "This fellow is of comparable strength to you, and his moves are unpredictable and strange. Do you dare to face him?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was taken aback.
They had initially thought Su Han was a good-for-nothing, but later discovered his noble identity. Now, when they saw Su Han intending to let this delicate woman face the ferocious Liu Wencai, everyone was astonished.
Many of the older women from the small inns cast looks of disdain.
"Damn, this kid really doesn't know how to cherish a woman. I heard that Liu Wencai's moves are ruthless and bizarre. This little girl facing him is probably like a meat bun thrown to a dog. Alas... what a pity. If I could train her, perhaps this lass could become a top courtesan in the future!"
"Who's not saying that? This old master of the Liu family is too much of a scoundrel. He's done so many dirty deeds, yet he remains composed. I originally thought he was shameless enough, but I didn't expect this handsome young man to be an even greater trickster. Alas, it's just a pity for this beautiful girl!"
After their discussion, they all felt it was a waste for Song Xinran.
But at this moment, Song Xinran's face was filled with excitement. Like a bloodthirsty viper, guided by Su Han, she had completely sprung into action!
"Master, just watch me!"
Song Xinran immediately stepped forward, assuming a stance to engage in battle.
This scene instantly made Liu Wencai feel amused. He had expected the two of them to face him together, which would have indeed posed some threat. But now, seeing Song Xinran stepping forward to face him alone, a subtle smile appeared on Liu Wencai's face.
"Good, good, good, indeed you are young, daring to be so careless! Then don't blame this old man. If I can capture you two today, I can advance further, hahahaha... thirty thousand combat power is not far off!" Liu Wencai was excited, but his expression remained impassive. He merely stared coldly at Song Xinran, waiting for her attack.
At this moment!
Song Xinran's eyes narrowed slightly. The person before her clearly had more combat experience than her, and his moves were incredibly strange. Therefore, Song Xinran decided to launch a surprise attack!
"Greetings, esteemed sir. This junior is Song Xinran of the Song family. My father..."
As she spoke, Song Xinran immediately cupped her fist. Simultaneously, dozens of flying needles shot out from her sleeve. The "Stormy Pear Blossom Needles" rained down like a deluge, enveloping Liu Wencai.
However, to her surprise, Liu Wencai chose to launch a surprise attack at the same time!
He held a soft sword, and the moment Song Xinran cupped her fist, he thrust it towards her face!
If it were anyone else!
This sneak attack would have undoubtedly hit its mark. Unfortunately, both were harboring their own schemes. In their simultaneous surprise attacks, they ended up in a stalemate.
Clang, clang, clang!
A series of flying needles all struck the soft sword. Both of them retreated several steps before managing to stabilize themselves.
"You little girl, how dare you sneak attack this old man? I never expected that with such a pretty face, your heart would be so black..."
"Hmph! Old man, didn't you also suddenly attack while I was introducing myself? If we're talking about black hearts, I think yours is even blacker!"
"Good, good, good, today this old man will let you witness my Marrow Sucking Technique!"
As the old man spoke, he patted a small pouch on his person. Instantly, a purple mist filled the air, looking as if it were poisonous. The Liu family disciples closest to him collapsed to the ground.
Song Xinran was also clearly affected, and her reactions slowed down considerably!
"Hahahaha, excellent, I'd like to see how you two can fight me now! Today, this old man intends to let both of you die here. Having inhaled my Soft Bone Powder, you won't even be able to muster any strength to fight now, leaving you to my mercy, hahahaha..."
Liu Wencai was ecstatic. As long as Song Xinran had inhaled even a tiny bit of this poisonous gas, he would be victorious!
After all, in a battle between experts, it all came down to a single move!
Now, Song Xinran seemed to have been poisoned quite severely, much more than just a little. Therefore, Liu Wencai had reason to believe he had won this time.
As for Su Han on the side, Liu Wencai didn't take him seriously at all. Someone who would let a woman go first couldn't possibly be a formidable character!
Little did he know that Su Han was already immune to such a small amount of poisonous smoke. He could breathe it in deeply without any issues, let alone the fact that Su Han was already holding his breath.
"Continue!"
Su Han's single word instantly boosted Song Xinran's confidence. She had initially thought Su Han had also been affected, but Su Han's command to continue made her sober up considerably. Her soul felt greatly encouraged, and Song Xinran suddenly felt much clearer!
"Go to hell, old man!"
Song Xinran's hand speed instantly doubled. Various hidden weapons, laced with poison, flew towards Liu Wencai ahead.
This move was also extremely powerful!
It was the focus of Song Xinran's training in recent times, and coupled with these hidden weapons, its power was not to be underestimated.
Indeed!
Before Liu Wencai could react, he was struck by a dagger. The dagger seemed to have a will of its own, burrowing out from the ground beneath his feet and piercing his calf.
It could be said that unless this dagger had been buried beforehand, it would have definitely caught his attention!
However, Song Xinran had hidden it very well, launching the dagger at the exact moment she unleashed her other hidden weapons!
This allowed her to succeed in one strike!
"Damn you! You girl, you are utterly despicable and shameless! You tricked this old man's attention and used such a vicious method in secret. I will kill you, I will not let this go..."
Liu Wencai, realizing the danger instantly, spoke of fighting Song Xinran to the death, but his feet, like oil, as if using an earth-遁 technique, immediately vanished from the spot.
And in the air, his disdainful snort could be heard!
"Hmph, two little brats, you think you can capture me? That's a pipe dream. This Liu Wencai is merely a pseudonym I've adopted. The real Liu Wencai died tragically in my belly long ago, hmph, if you have the ability, come and chase me. If you catch me, I'll call you Grandpa!"
