Chapter 1 The Misty Night

In the night, the fog gradually thickened.

Outside the Chaoyu Martial Arts Center, inside a five-star hotel suite.

Several tall young men dressed like gangsters were either standing or sitting, playing mobile games.

*Beep!!*

Suddenly, a piercing sound came from one of their phones.

"What's going on!?"

This person had his hair dyed red, with a bald line-like parting splitting his red hair in two from the center of his head.

"It's an alarm, the positioning signal from Hai Sha is gone!"

Another person said in a deep voice.

"Try calling him."

Several people quickly dialed Hai Sha's number, taking turns waiting.

"I'm sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."

A sweet female voice came from the receiver.

"Report it immediately!" the red-haired man said sternly.

"Isn't that a bit much? Maybe he just went somewhere with a bad signal?" a woman dressed like a gangster said nonchalantly.

"Master Hai Sha should know what time it is, he wouldn't deliberately go to a place that blocks signals. Besides, even if it's a misunderstanding, reporting it won't cause the organization to blame us!" the red-haired man quickly replied.

"Okay..."

"Locate Master Hai Sha's last known location, and then report it together."

Encrypted messages were quickly sent from their phones, reaching a rooftop several kilometers away.

On the rooftop.

A tall figure in a purple windbreaker stood at the edge of the building, a cigarette glowing red in his mouth.

The cold wind made his coat flutter, creating a soft rustling sound.

In the lenses of his glasses, the text messages from the others were compiled.

All the information merged together, automatically decoded, forming a sentence and an address.

"Hai Sha..." The man took the cigarette from his mouth and blew out a smoke ring. "It's unlikely that anyone could pose a threat to him. But since a message came, I'll go take a look."

He didn't like this Cetus guy.

Being heartless and unjust was something not everyone could do. To pursue the ultimate strength, Cetus had abandoned almost everything he could.

Such power was meaningless in his eyes.

However, to ensure the smooth completion of the organization's plan, he had to cooperate with Cetus to complete this assassination.

After thinking for a moment, he took out his phone and dialed his subordinate's number.

"I received intelligence that there's a situation in the Bei Yu Lin district, near the Lan Sen barbecue bar, immediately send people over to investigate."

"Understood!"

A low reply from the Security Department subordinate came from the other end of the phone.

Turning around, the purple-windbreaker man quickly walked towards the downstairs elevator.

Not long after, a purple-black convertible sped out of the garage and headed into the distance.

*

*

*

Loud, rhythmic music formed an active sound barrier, completely engulfing the entire bar.

Here, at this time, no matter how much noise occurred, it would be vaguely covered up.

To those passing by outside, it was just part of the music.

This was one of Li Cheng Yi's goals.

Disordered tables and chairs were scattered around the two people.

He was only half a meter away from Hai Sha.

This distance was so close that it was almost impossible to fully extend an arm.

For any martial artist, this was an extremely dangerous distance.

But... neither of them seemed to care.

"Hehehehe... Hahahahaha!!!"

Suddenly, Hai Sha opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and burst into laughter.

"Could it be that you want to kill me here??"

After laughing for a while, he lowered his head, a hint of purple faintly flowing through his pupils.

"Is it that funny?" Li Cheng Yi's tone turned cold.

"It's not just funny." Hai Sha spread his hands. "It's too funny!!"

*Bang!!*

In an instant, a blurry shadow landed on his left face.

The immense force exploded with a sonic boom, instantly creating a line of blood that spurted out.

Hai Sha's left face suddenly shattered, flesh and blood exploding, revealing the white bone beneath.

The bone also failed to last even half a second before being cracked and caved in.

*Boom!!*

He was sent flying horizontally like a rocket, crashing into the thick alloy wall.

His body crashed into the wall, creating a slight dent, before falling to the ground.

"Still laughing?" Li Cheng Yi withdrew his hand, wiggled his fingers, and walked towards him step by step.

"Keep laughing."

Hai Sha propped himself up from the ground, shaking his head, his face covered in blood.

"Hehehehehe..."

He was still laughing!

Blood continued to drip from his face onto the ground, staining the white carpet red.

But he didn't seem to care at all, and slowly stood up.

A strange thing happened.

In the short two seconds it took him to stand up, the wound on his face actually stopped bleeding quickly, and began to wriggle and heal.

"Interesting..."

"Too interesting!!"

He laughed again.

"It's been a long time since I felt pain..."

Watching Li Cheng Yi approaching.

He crouched slightly, his arms forming a figure-eight strange starting stance.

At the same time, he frowned, as if squeezing out a third eye pattern between his eyebrows.

*Hiss...*

A piercing inhalation sound came from his mouth.

With the inhalation, Hai Sha's chest continued to bulge, becoming larger and larger, and even his entire body size increased by a circle.

"To experience even greater pain, I haven't used techniques for a long time," Hai Sha said with a low laugh.

"But now your fist is worthy of me using a portion of my power."

"..." Li Cheng Yi tilted his head slightly. "Sorry... I didn't dare use too much force just now."

"After all, it wouldn't be good if I accidentally killed you."

"Then you can use force now," Hai Sha laughed, lowering his head, like a lion or tiger about to pounce on its prey.

The two of them stopped moving at the same time.

The music was still playing, but the sounds around them seemed to freeze and become silent at this moment.

Time seemed to lose its flow.

Everything also seemed to stop changing.

*Boom!!*

In an instant, the carpet under Hai Sha's feet shattered, and the ground collapsed.

He crouched like a shadow, pouncing fiercely towards the opposite side.

The air around him turned viscous, hindering his progress.

All the colors in the bar blurred at this moment.

Without hesitation, without hesitation.

His hands, left and right, were like spreading out a wide kasaya, covering the opponent.

This was one of the killing moves of the Fumo Jingang Quan (Demon Subduing Vajra Fist) where the soft energy explodes - Fumo Jiasha Dou (Demon Subduing Kasaya)!

This was a top-level fighting killing move even more powerful than the Zhuxing Longying (Stars Dragon Shadow) of the Long Xu Men (Dragon Whisker Sect), capable of exploding three times its own force in an instant.

It could reach its own power burst limit in a very short time.

The upper limit of an ordinary person's explosive force is one thousand kilograms, that is, one ton!

But Hai Sha's limit. Was far higher than this!

The vast airflow swirled and rolled, forming a white mist between Hai Sha's arms, shrouding Li Cheng Yi.

From afar, this white mist looked like a real kasaya, which could cover the opponent's vision.

This was also the origin of the name of this killing move.

"Die!!"

Hai Sha's palms quickly fell towards Li Cheng Yi's chest and neck.

He seemed to be able to see the beautiful scene of blood exploding and spurting out.

Flesh and blood torn, bones broken, life flickering like a candle. A crystallization of decades was about to fall here...

Such beauty, such pleasure...

*Shua!*

Suddenly, Hai Sha's eyes blurred. The figure in front of him had disappeared.

His proud killing move had actually missed.

The huge inertia carried him forward several meters, then he hurriedly turned around.

Li Cheng Yi was still standing in place. Only the position was slightly skewed than before, nothing more.

"Not bad power." Li Cheng Yi said lightly.

"Not bad speed." Hai Sha's eyes became gloomy. "But do you think that fast footwork will allow you to avoid fighting me head-on?"

He straightened his body, and the soft energy suddenly exploded from his heart, like countless pieces of cloth, scattered throughout his body, covering his skin.

Countless purple blood vessels, like earthworms, appeared on his body surface.

Slowly, a two-meter-tall, strong, ugly monster actually twisted his body, standing with his legs one in front of the other, his arms like the heavenly women in temples, posing in a strange and enchanting posture of holding a bottle and lifting a veil.

"How do you have the face to make such an ugly pose?" Li Cheng Yi sneered.

"Ugly?" Hai Sha said coldly, "This is one of the profound mysteries of the Fumo Jingang Quan, the Jingang Wu (Vajra Dance)!"

"Jingang Wu?" Li Cheng Yi sneered. "What's the use of having a good name, you're ugly."

"..." The smile on Hai Sha's face finally completely disappeared.

"I hate it most when people say I'm ugly."

"Then I said it now." Li Cheng Yi smiled. "So what."

The two became quiet again.

One second.

Two seconds.

Three seconds.

*Bang!!*

In an instant, the two disappeared from their original positions at the same time.

*Bang bang bang bang bang!!*

Rain-like punches, accompanied by huge sound waves and white air ripples, exploded between the two of them.

Hai Sha's speed was more than one level faster than before, obviously due to the amplifying effect of this Jingang Wu.

This strange amplification allowed him to increase his speed greatly in a short period of time.

But the side effect was that the power was weakened.

*Boom!!*

Li Cheng Yi heavily struck Hai Sha's chest with a palm.

Zhuxing Longying (Stars Dragon Shadow)!!

This palm, accompanied by the soft energy burst and the Long Xu Men's killing move, instantly exploded with a piercing sonic boom.

This was a rocket-like palm, right in the chest.

The huge force and speed carried Hai Sha backwards, smashing a pile of tables and chairs, and crashing into the alloy wall not far away.

A black palm print was stamped on his chest, almost penetrating to his back.

The chest bones and flesh were completely squeezed to the surrounding parts.

It was almost done like this.

Li Cheng Yi calculated that it was enough to prevent this guy from participating in the subsequent competition, and he would have to recuperate for at least half a month.

Exactly half a month could stagger the duel with Xiao Nan.

His purpose was achieved.

After all, he didn't intend to kill the other party from the beginning. Serious injuries could be recovered, but killing a contestant would cause too much consequence. Even if the higher-ups were biased, it was impossible to condone such actions.

So, doing this step was enough.

As for being recognized by the other party, it was meaningless.

Did he really think that the higher-ups had all-seeing eyes and didn't know that he was causing trouble? It was just the tacit approval of the superiors.

After all, now it seemed that he was not the only one causing trouble. Some would be informed in advance if the Li family was endorsing them to be targeted.

Many things were just the superiors pretending not to know.

Did he feel it was unfair?

Then don't participate.

Turning around, Li Cheng Yi walked towards the door, preparing to leave.

"You bastard...!!?"

Suddenly, a voice came from behind with pain.

It was Hai Sha!!

He could still move! In theory, his lungs had been shattered, and he would die soon if he wasn't rescued.

But now, he could still speak!?

Li Cheng Yi frowned and suddenly turned around.

*Shua!!*

A three-meter-tall purple monster, with knotted muscles all over his body, silently appeared behind him.

Raise his hand.

Throw a punch.

*Boom!!!!*

The huge, purple arms as thick as a person's waist slammed heavily on top of Li Cheng Yi's head.

Li Cheng Yi raised his hand to block like lightning.

The four arms collided. In an instant, the sound that was emitted was not the sound of flesh and blood, but a loud noise similar to the collision of metal rocks.
