“Hey bad guy, your grandfather is here!”

The system wasn’t able to acknowledge Ye Weiming’s personal mocking skill and give the relevant reaction but he did successfully attract the attention of the boss. The boss raised his crossbow and shot at him without a second word.

However, Ye Weiming’s movement technique was much more powerful than the other normal players at this current stage of the game. After shifting his internal energy to his feet, his speed reached an astonishing limit. When Chen Ming fired two arrows, Ye Weiming had already covered a few meters. He hid behind another stone pillar.

Taking this chance when Chen Ming’s attention was all on Ye Weiming, Youyou stepped out from the stone pillar. The moment Chen Ming wanted to turn the direction of his crossbow, Ye Weiming came out from behind his stone pillar once again. He executed the ‘Eight Step Chasing Toad’ to its fullest potential and charged towards where Chen Ming was.

Two targets appeared at the same time. However, Chen Ming was still able to almost instantly predict that Ye Weiming, who was attempting to get near him, was the greater threat. Thus, he changed the direction of his crossbow again. But, before he could fire his arrows, Youyou’s arrows had already landed on his body.

“Poof! Poof! Poof! …”

All six arrows managed to hit Chen Ming once again. With the help of her past experience, Youyou purposely slowed down the tempo of her attack this time. She made use of the 0.2 seconds the boss needed to use to aim, earning more time for Ye Weiming. At the same time, she took 324 points of Chen Ming’s blood. His life value was now 6,176/6,500.

What happened to the blood that she took away from the boss a while ago?

She was seriously injured and managed to return to full blood now. Do you think that the recovery speed of the boss would be slower than a player’s?


Of course, the amount of blood the boss lost because of Youyou’s six arrows wasn’t the main point. The main thing was that she managed to help Ye Weiming earn close to five seconds of moving time!

Five seconds was enough to let Ye Weiming move from the edge of the main hall to the front of the boss. He managed to immediately take over Youyou’s attack.

After getting attacked continuously by two players, even the boss found it hard to handle. In order to protect himself, he instinctively raised the Zhuge Celestial Bow to block Ye Weiming’s attack the moment he broke free from his freeze.

Based on Youyou’s description, this Zhuge Celestial Bow was created using the Zhuge quick-firing crossbow as its foundation. The ancestors of the Tang Clan collected all the refined gold they could find on earth and spent 10 entire years building this crossbow. They were not only able to bring out the full potential of the functions of the crossbow, but after strengthening the crossbow, knives and axes weren’t able to damage it either.

Ye Weiming predicted that his opponent would use this method to block his attack, so he twirled his wrist and changed his stab into a sweep. He exerted internal energy on the blades of his sword and swept his sword across Chen Ming’s wrist at the speed of lightning. He aimed at the hand that was holding the crossbow.

“Ouch!” Chen Ming screamed in pain. The Zhuge Celestial Bow landed on the ground. At the same time, he moved back furiously and tried to widen the distance between Ye Weiming and him.

As for Ye Weiming, he didn’t show any mercy. Using this chance when his opponent dropped his weapon, he brought his sword forward and used the most lethal skill of the ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’, Beauty Of A Sick Lady to attack Chen Ming’s heart.

-326!

It was a critical hit too but the amount of damage Ye Weiming caused was twice the value of Youyou’s critical damage shot!

The moment he achieved success, Ye Weiming continued attacking mercilessly. He continued stabbing Chen Ming as he shouted his moves.

“Beauty holding the throat!”

“Beauty holding the eye!”

“Beauty holding the temples!”

“Beauty holding the kidney!”

He kept using the most powerful skill, ‘Beauty Of A Sick Lady’, over and over again. All he did was change the position he was attacking. After a series of attacks, he managed to achieve critical hits every time. There were seven attacks in total. It took away more than 2,000 points of blood from the boss.

He was able to achieve such results not because his ‘Beauty Of A Sick Lady’ was a bug in the game. Actually, this move was very simple and direct. It wasn’t hard to block this move. Yet, he dared to use it because the boss didn’t have any weapons on him. Also, the boss wasn’t well-versed with close combat skills.

After the seven attacks, the boss finally managed to take out the beheading knife behind his back. He waved his knife towards Ye Weiming’s sword blade.

“Clang!”

The sound of metal clashing into each other echoed through the secret tunnel. Ye Weiming was forced to take three steps back because of the boss’ attacking power. His combo was discontinued!

After his combo was stopped, Ye Weiming quickly turned his head and looked towards the spot where Chen Ming dropped the Zhuge Celestial Bow. Youyou had already picked up the treasured weapon. Ye Weiming heaved a sigh of relief. He raised the long sword in his hand and rushed towards Chen Ming again.

The boss was holding a knife now, so Ye Weiming didn’t dare to keep using ‘Beauty of a Sick Lady’ anymore. Instead, he concentrated on executing the ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ slowly to drag the time. Around 10 seconds passed. Youyou’s reinforcement still didn’t come. But, Ye Weiming didn’t mind. With the help of his high-level sword skill, he managed to stab the boss two times within a short period of time. He didn’t cause any critical damage but he managed to take away close to 200 points of blood.

Based on this tempo, Ye Weiming felt that he could attempt to fight with this boss one on one.

However, his plan to fight with the boss alone failed. Just as he was prepared to fight for a long time with the boss, Youyou’s reinforcement finally arrived.

“Whiz! Whiz! Whiz! …”

The shrill sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard. A series of red numbers instantly appeared above the boss’s head.

-734!

-721!

-1,465!

Seven continuous arrows. Every time the arrow hit him, Chen Ming would be forced back. At the same time, a frightening number would float up above his head. Two of them were critical hits. The critical damage inflicted was close to 1,500 points. It was scary.

Although seven arrows were fired, the boss’s health bar was already empty by the time the sixth arrow hit him. Strictly speaking, the last arrow hit a corpse. Also, it directly stuck the corpse of the boss on the stone pillar behind him.

The system announcement blinked three times. However, Ye Weiming was more concerned about something else. “The treasured weapon is the same, but why was your damage so much higher than the boss’ damage when he was using it?”

“Because the boss doesn’t know how to use it,” Youyou replied naturally. “He couldn’t even ensure the accuracy of his attacks when he was using this crossbow. Thus, he was unable to enjoy the additional attributes given by other kung fu skills. The ‘Jing Yu Sutra’ I cultivated is specifically for crossbows.”

Ye Weiming remembered that his ‘Sword of the Yue Maiden’ was able to increase his sword skill damage by 70%. He felt enlightened. He was too astounded when he saw her killing the boss in the blink of an eye, so he didn’t remember this.

He shook his head. Then, he suddenly said, “Can you send me the attributes?”

Youyou was holding the Zhuge Celestial Bow but it didn’t belong to her. She needed to bring it back to the Tang Clan and hand it over to complete her mission. Thus, there was no need for her to hide the attributes of the weapon. She immediately sent Ye Weiming a screenshot of it.
