Super Soldier in the City

Chapter 1331 - 1381: Desperate Counterkill

Chapter 1331: Chapter 1381: Desperate CounterkillThe violent explosion almost killed Li Yifei, but it also created an opportunity for him. The thick smoke and debris instantly concealed his figure, making him invisible to the snipers perched above.

The three snipers, positioned on either side of the cliff, were now trying their best to locate Li Yifei. The moment he showed himself, they would not hesitate to pull the trigger.

However, they were deeply shocked. As snipers, at this range, with no cover for the target, a single one of them could have easily taken him down. Yet, with three snipers and three rifles, they still hadn’t managed to kill Li Yifei. Such a feat demonstrated an extraordinary level of reflex and awareness.

Inwardly, they couldn’t help but admire Li Yifei. It was an admiration that welled up from the depths of their hearts. But this admiration did not affect their resolve; they continued to

Na Yi wasn’t sure if she understood his meaning. Panic flashed across her face as she shook her head desperately, clinging even tighter to his waist.

Li Yifei sighed inwardly; the language barrier was annoying. But he had no choice—he had to eliminate these people. Otherwise, they would eventually discover him. He patted Na Yi’s shoulder again before hugging her tightly. When she lifted her head, he pointed outside once more, his smile widening in encouragement.

Na Yi still shook her head vigorously, refusing to let go.

Li Yifei was exasperated. With no other option, he lightly tapped the crook of Na Yi’s elbow, numbing her arms. He gently pried her arms off, then grabbed her arm and shook his head slightly. Planting one foot against the large stone slab, he pushed off, sending the boulder sliding down. His figure darted out immediately, following the boulder’s descent.

Na Yi almost cried out in alarm but quickly leaned over to watch. She saw Li Yifei leap onto the stone slab, riding it downward. The sight was terrifying; the drop was over ten meters. How could he survive such a fall?

Standing atop the boulder, Li Yifei suddenly flicked his wrist, sending several Flying Needles upward. The three snipers above posed the greatest threat, so they had to be dealt with first.

The snipers spotted the descending boulder and quickly noticed Li Yifei upon it. Rifles raised, they prepared to fire, but they never got the chance. A split second later, consciousness eluded them forever. They would never wake again.

Meanwhile, the group below remained unaware that the three snipers had been taken out. They tensed up at the sight of the falling boulder but couldn’t see anyone on it from below. Calmly and methodically, they simply stepped aside to avoid it.

"Li Yifei is there!" At that moment, someone farther away caught sight of Li Yifei from the side and shouted, opening fire immediately.

But it was too late. Li Yifei’s Flying Needles were already in play, striking with lethal precision. He aimed to kill without hesitation this time.

The Flying Needle technique, once already formidable, had grown even deadlier after his mastery of Innate Vital Energy through Dual Cultivation. The needles were now faster than bullets. Aside from the first man who managed to fire a shot, the others didn’t even have time to touch their triggers before succumbing to Li Yifei’s attack.

In mere moments, over ten bodies littered the ground.

Yet Li Yifei deliberately left one survivor. He needed answers—who was behind this attack? Who had sent these men? And what other plans did they have?

This ambush was unexpected. It meant the people who targeted Xu Yingying with the Worm had orchestrated all this to lure him here for their trap.

"Li Yifei!" Na Yi’s voice called him from above.

Li Yifei hesitated briefly but quickly climbed back up the rock face. He couldn’t risk the girl losing her balance and falling in her panic.

As soon as he reached the top, Na Yi threw her arms around him. Li Yifei patted her shoulder before carrying her back down the cliff together. Na Yi glanced at the lifeless bodies below, utterly confused. How could those people who had been fine moments ago suddenly stop moving?

Li Yifei didn’t bother explaining; there was no point. He walked toward one of the fallen men and kicked him awake. The man reflexively reached for his gun, but upon seeing Li Yifei standing calmly before him, he froze.

"Golden Eagle truly lives up to his name," the man, a middle-aged mercenary, said with a wry smile.

Li Yifei stared at him steadily. "Who sent you?" he asked slowly.

The man chuckled frankly, "We’re just mercenaries. We take jobs for money. As for who wants you dead, I honestly don’t know. There’s a phone here, but whether you can make contact is beyond me."

Li Yifei studied the man’s eyes for a long moment before nodding. "Any other plans?" he asked.

"My mission was simply to kill you. I don’t know anything else. Golden Eagle, I’ve told you everything I know. Please, grant me a quick death."

Li Yifei offered no reply. Hugging Na Yi, he turned and walked away. The man waited until Li Yifei had moved about ten meters away before grabbing his gun and trying to fire. But an unbearable pain in his head ended his efforts. His strength faded instantly, his wide-open eyes unfocused as he fell lifelessly to the
