Online: I Can See Health Bars

Chapter 1244 - 550: Opportunity (Part 2)

The younger sister Zhao Yinxin was originally acting with her, so everyone she recruited were other outsiders.

For instance, there was Chuan Luozhi, who had already fallen to his death, or Lin Yi Yuan, who was now clearly showing signs of backing out.

"Lin Yi Yuan, you take the lead! Let’s charge upstairs and kill him together!"

"Huh? Me?"

Lin Yi Yuan pointed to his nose and instinctively took two steps back.

Earlier, when Fang Yu had grazed his shoulder with a sword, he thought it was just because he wasn’t careful enough. But now, seeing the Poison Marrow Sword lose the fight, he realized the man upstairs was indeed formidable.

Yet now, being asked to risk his life, he was absolutely unwilling.

But...

"Poisoned and still dare to defy my order? Looks like you really have a death wish!"

Lin Yi Yuan’s face changed again.

"When did you poison me!?"

"Those meals you just ate, didn’t you notice a slight odd taste?"

Lin Yi Yuan’s face changed again.

To be honest, he didn’t feel anything unusual in his body, but he didn’t dare take the risk whether the Poison Marrow Sword was bluffing or actually poisoned him.

With a grim look, he was almost forced to raise his head and look towards the white-clothed young man on the second floor.

And the young man on the second floor seemed to have lost patience with them.

Seeing no one daring to come up, he suddenly leapt down from the second floor, landing in the crowd with a bang.

"Oh no!!"

"He’s coming down!!"

"Get away! Watch out for his attack!"

The gathered crowd below, frightened by Fang Yu’s landing, screamed and moved aside.

Those who were just preparing to take Fang Yu’s head back for a reward, now looked like mice seeing a cat, thoroughly terrified.

Well then...

Fang Yu’s eyes flashed with disappointment. Apart from those with conspicuous health bars, the others’ strengths were indeed nothing noteworthy.

If he wasn’t worried about the Evil Qi growing too rampant, this group could be mostly cleared with one Qi Explosion.

But doing so would make him marked as a wanted man, attracting not only demons but possibly even people from the Ten Major Families.

"Who sent you?"

Fang Yu intended to ask first, of course, if they answered truthfully, he still wouldn’t spare those with high health.

They were blood banks offered for free, why let them go?

However, Fang Yu’s question received no response.

Instead, Zhao Jinci shouted loudly.

"All together! Whoever kills him gets the bounty!"

Truly a case of a monkey proclaiming itself king when the tiger is away.

Fang Yu’s peripheral view swept over the humble-looking Humblebane Plague in the corner.

This old man had the highest health around, the strongest power among them, yet remained most subdued, suppressing the boy named Zhao Wutian, clearly having no intention to join the fray.

And Zhao Jinci’s shout indeed had the desired effect.

Everyone peering at Fang Yu already twitched with restiveness.

At first, when Fang Yu dropped down, they were startled. But now, with allies all around sharing common interests, they felt an inexplicable sense of reassurance.

"Yes! All together!"

"Brothers, at this stage, can we even flee? No matter where one got their job, take down this head and deal with the rest later!"

"Kill kill kill! He’s alone, can he really turn the tide?"

"Two fists can’t fight four legs! Let’s all jump in, he’s no match for us!"

Each shouted more fervently than the last.

As if driven by this momentum, someone shouted a killing cry and charged in first.

However, with a bang, Fang Yu sent him flying with just one punch.

The crowd wide-eyed at Fang Yu’s one-punch tactics, brains stunned, unable to process what transpired.

Whoosh!

An iron whip full of barbs suddenly appeared, coiling up Fang Yu’s right foot.

With a sharp tug on the iron whip, Fang Yu noticeably staggered.

No one saw Fang Yu’s silent smile obscured by his bowed head; they saw only the iron whip restraining Fang Yu’s reach.

"It’s Bone Piercing Whip Zhao Yinxin!"

"Great chance! Now’s the moment!"

"Charge!!"

The crowd excitedly roared and surged forward.

Yet Bone Piercing Whip Zhao Yinxin realized, the one she’d just tugged on fiercely barely budged now!

Momentarily confounded, she hastily called, "Sis, wait a moment!"

But it was too late.

Her sister Zhao Jinci, along with the others, seized this opportunity, all advancing on Fang Yu!

Even Lin Yi Yuan, the smiling betrayer, participated.

Lin Yi Yuan’s movement technique was extremely swift, but he wasn’t at the forefront — too conspicuous.

Instead, he always adjusted his position in the crowd, ensuring a shield before him to unleash a deadly strike with his folding fan!

The folding fan he wielded was iron wrapped in paper!

Essentially, a particularly insidious weapon!

Sharp blades, under his skillful force, would shoot from within the paper fan to the surface, transforming it into a razor-like deadly weapon!

Lin Yi Yuan had killed many using this technique, and this time, he wouldn’t fail!

Seeing Fang Yu ahead, sending the first attacker flying with a sweeping strike, Lin Yi Yuan seized upon the visual deception, launching a fierce surprise from the dead angle!

As he swung the fan, blades from the other side slashed forth simultaneously!

With swords on the left and a fan on the right, anyone would know which to handle first, right?

Lin Yi Yuan’s eyes gleamed with cunning.

Just as anticipated, the enemy caught the incoming sword with two hands!

Now!!!

Lin Yi Yuan’s folding fan accelerated, bursting with a bang. Amidst scattering paper scraps, the sharp iron structure sliced towards Fang Yu’s neck!

"Here’s payback for earlier..." Lin Yi Yuan was still shouting in thrill.

His wrist abruptly got caught.

The iron fan that nearly slashed Fang Yu’s face froze mid-air.

Impossible?!

Lin Yi Yuan’s eyes widened just as—

Crack!

His wrist fractured.

With a clear snap at the wrist, Lin Yi Yuan screamed in pain while Fang Yu seized the iron fan, reversing it deftly.

Slash!!!!

Lin Yi Yuan’s neck tore open a huge gash, deep enough to reveal the white neck bones beneath!

Blood gushed violently from the wound as Lin Yi Yuan clutched it with one hand, staggered back, and collapsed. He found his killer was already engaging others, continuing the fight with bare fists and feet.

As if killing Lin Yi Yuan, this master of hidden treachery, was just a trivial act, lacking any honor, a matter of insignificance!

Twisted.

Lin Yi Yuan’s face twisted grotesquely.

With immense hatred and a wicked curse, he silently fell to the ground, losing consciousness completely.

[System Prompt: Congratulations...]

[System Prompt: In-fighting among the Human Race, grievances form Evil...]

In a whirlwind of action, or perhaps as a blur, all surrounding Fang Yu were suddenly flung away.

Some smashed onto tables with a crash, reducing them to debris, writhing in pain, unable to rise for a long time.

Others hit the inn walls with a thud, sliding down limp and unconscious.

In this brief moment, the crowd that encircled Fang Yu, barricading him in, all had been hurled away, except for Zhao Jinci, seizing the moment like the grand finale, making a final stealthy attempt as her comrades crossed paths while being thrown, stabbing fiercely at Fang Yu’s back with her sword!

When is a person most relaxed?

Zhao Jinci knew.

It’s the moment when all obstacles have been cleared.

When the onslaught from all sides had been entirely neutralized, that was when the opposition’s Spirit was most relaxed!

This balances the tension and slack in that moment, perfectly utilized by her!
