Hu Die Lan
Chapter 516 Familiar Power
However, Duan Shui Jian’s positioning was perfect! So perfect that Jian Gui’s heart pounded. This position, this distance, not using a "Mist Shadow Assault" would feel like a guilty conscience.
A guilty conscience? Doing it in front of Shui Shen was a bit difficult, seemingly also because of a guilty conscience!
But since it was a choice, one must bear all the consequences of that choice. From the moment he decided to do this, he was destined to ignore Shui Shen’s gaze. Whether Shui Shen was there or not didn't seem too important, right?
Moreover, considering the purpose of his actions, doing it in front of Shui Shen might even be better. This could serve as a warning to Duan Shui Jian, letting him see his determination: even if Shui Shen misunderstood, he would definitely stop his plan!
Do it! After a few seconds of consideration, Jian Gui made up his mind.
Mist Shadow Assault!!!
As soon as the skill was used, the air seemed to explode, and suddenly a black figure shot out. The unique halo of the superb weapon, Chang Zhu Duan Tan, left a ghostly light in the high-speed movement, captivating the soul.
"Who is it!" As the players subconsciously shouted this, Jian Gui had already rushed to within two meters of Duan Shui Jian.
Disappear!!!
The figure suddenly vanished. Everyone was bewildered. Could it have been an illusion? It seemed like someone had rushed over here quickly?
Everyone's minds couldn't keep up with the development of the situation. In the next second after the figure disappeared, Duan Shui Jian suddenly flew backward, and the figure reappeared.
"Jian Gui!" Eyes met, Shui Shen gritted his teeth.
"Guild Leader!!" Seeing Duan Shui Jian being knocked away, and Shui Shen being within easy striking distance of the attacker, the others, a little too far away to protect him, shouted anxiously.
From these people's surprised, anxious, and concerned gazes, Jian Gui suddenly found a clear answer. He was even more convinced that his choice was right. He and Shui Shen had friendship, but the guild held more of Shui Shen’s friendships. These must not be ruined in the hands of this guy, Duan Shui Jian.
The last bit of entanglement in his heart was resolved, but Jian Gui couldn't show a victorious smile, because he knew that the strike just now hadn't completely succeeded.
Duan Shui Jian's reaction was astonishing. He had accurately seen that Jian Gui's target was him. At the moment of being attacked, he had blocked and dodged. Although he was still knocked away, Jian Gui knew very well that the damage of his strike had not been fully released. Being knocked away might be a way to defuse the impact.
With his current attack power, perhaps he didn't need full damage to kill… Jian Gui hoped so, after all, the opponent was just a lightly armored archer.
However, in the bushes where Duan Shui Jian flew and fell, there was no white light of death flashing.
Regretfully, and helplessly, Jian Gui knew that this strike had missed. He didn't have the ability to assassinate Duan Shui Jian head-on. This guy’s skills were even more terrifying than he had expected.
But Jian Gui wouldn't be discouraged by this. If once didn't work, he could try a second time, a third time… After knocking Duan Shui Jian away, although he thought a lot, Jian Gui didn't delay for even a second in his actions.
Get killed after one failed strike? Jian Gui didn't want such a heroic assassin legend to happen to him. He still wanted to keep his level to attack Duan Shui Jian a second time, a third time…
Using Hasty Steps, Jian Gui turned and rushed out. He had already chosen the route of retreat. However, after just a few steps, he suddenly heard a soft sound.
Jian Gui's heart tightened, and his feet tightened even more.
It was a trap! However, this path was carefully selected by him. He was sure that there wouldn't be any traps on this road.
Jian Gui turned his head. He saw Shui Shen's bow was still pointed at him, expressionless.
"It's his Trap Arrow…" Jian Gui sighed. He knew Shui Shen had such a skill. As expected, he shouldn't have acted in front of this guy. His existence was simply a variable. Jian Gui smiled bitterly. He knew that Shui Shen's Trap Arrow could be seamlessly connected. He couldn't avoid being heroic now even if he wanted to. He had already seen the arrows on the strings of the others being released towards him.
Losing this level would make it even more difficult to kill Duan Shui Jian. This was the only regret Jian Gui had before closing his eyes.
A series of soft sounds suddenly appeared in his ears. Jian Gui didn't feel the pain of being hit by arrows, nor did he feel the teleportation after death. He opened his eyes and saw a black figure standing in front of him. That familiar, powerful, perverted figure!
"Wearing too much is really cumbersome!" This person muttered while pulling an arrow from his shoulder.
"But at least there's this benefit." From the camouflage mage robe that was shaken open in his left hand, a series of arrows fell down.
Everyone was dumbfounded. He actually used this coat to roll up all the arrows shot by everyone. Gu Fei's skills would cause mental blocks to others no matter when or where.
"I'm not in a good mood right now!" He threw away the camouflage robe and waved his hand to draw his sword. The tip of the sword swept across the ground, and the withered leaves stirred up by the sword wind danced, beautifully circling a circle.
"This is my sword circle. Those who step into it will die."
Once upon a time, Gu Fei had bluffed like this in Moon Night City, just to scare others and facilitate his escape. But this time, he was very serious. Even if Shui Shen stepped in at this time, Gu Fei would not show any mercy. Anyone who entered the circle was an enemy, without any sentimentality.
"Damn, what are you pretending for!" Someone immediately retorted.
A bolt of lightning descended from the sky and disappeared.
"This is not pretending, it's strength." Gu Fei's sword was still pointing at the place where the person who had scolded had disappeared.
The hands of everyone holding bows were trembling slightly. They didn't know if shooting an arrow over would count as stepping into his sword circle. Everyone was subconsciously thinking about this question. Of course, this kind of word game didn't make much sense at this time. The heroic guy just now didn't step into the circle, but he was still killed in seconds.
No one dared to make any rash moves anymore. Everyone looked at Shui Shen together.
"You think you can still escape? Do you know how many of us are in this forest?" Shui Shen knew it was his time to speak.
"Do you know how many of you will die before you kill me?" Gu Fei retorted sharply.
Silence.
"As the guild leader, you should think more about your brothers." Gu Fei said.
Speaking of brothers, Shui Shen suddenly remembered Duan Shui Jian who had flown out and quickly turned to look.
"Don't bother looking, he's at the resurrection point. His position just now was too perfect, I couldn't help but give him another strike." Gu Fei said, turning to look at Jian Gui: "Don't blame me, right? Did it affect your mission?"
"No, just do it again." Jian Gui smiled.
"Makes sense." Gu Fei nodded, then looked at Shui Shen again: "Guild Leader Shui Shen, now the two of us are leaving. Feel free to stop us if you want! But remember to choose those who are not afraid of death, so they won't blame you after they die."
Without saying another word, Gu Fei and Jian Gui turned and left.
"Guild Leader!!!" The other players couldn't stand it any longer. With their impulsiveness turned on, everyone put on a "not afraid of death" halo.
Shui Shen shook his head: "Now is not the best time. Harming the enemy a thousand, we lose eight hundred ourselves. We can't afford this kind of loss right now. Don't forget, we are fully preparing for the main city war. We'll talk about this kind of trouble later."
"Oh…" everyone responded.
"Notify everyone, don't provoke them. A small team won't be a match for the two of them." Shui Shen said.
"Understood!" The people present had obviously witnessed the strength of the two. Jian Gui's sudden strike, Gu Fei's perverted skills, and the lightning kill with a wave of his hand were not something ordinary players could do. With Extremely Cold's current configuration of only 10 or so people in a team, they were indeed not enough for these two to wipe out.
So the two walked magnificently in the forest, while the people of Extremely Cold humbly lay in ambush, looking up at them.
"Why are you here too?" Jian Gui asked.
"I came to find you, boss!" Gu Fei said.
"No need to persuade me…" Jian Gui could easily guess Gu Fei's intention.
"No, we have a new plan." Gu Fei described it concisely.
"Oh…" Jian Gui was also happy to expose Duan Shui Jian's true colors, so of course he had no reason to refuse such a plan.
"But who should go? Brother You?" Jian Gui asked. The choice of this person was obviously the key to the success or failure of this plan. They, who had met Duan Shui Jian, were obviously not suitable. Even if they covered their faces at that time, it would be difficult to say that they would not be exposed, the risk was too great. Apart from these, it seemed that the other three members of the elite group were trustworthy. However, Zhan Wu Shang and Yu Tian Shen Ming, one big and one small, were not serious, and this kind of precise work was completely unsuitable. In this way, Brother You was the only choice.
"No, there are professionals…" Gu Fei said regretfully, "That girl who stole your dagger before, remember?"
Although the matter happened five hundred chapters ago, Jian Gui completely remembered it. The impression was too deep. His trust in Gu Fei also started from that time.
"Is it her? How could she get involved?" Jian Gui was very inexplicable. For him, Xi Xiao Tian was completely a stranger.
"Walking on the street, we just ran into each other, and then Lu Ke came to me to talk about something, and she heard it again, and then she had a way, weird, right? But the most critical thing at the moment is that the 'Memory Black Box' skill has not yet been found. Brother You has already gone to inquire about it." Gu Fei said.
"Oh…"
As they spoke, the two returned to Lin Yin City.
"Alright, you go find Lu Ke and the others to see how the plan is going!" Gu Fei waved to Jian Gui.
"Where are you going?" Jian Gui quickly asked. Gu Fei's actions obviously meant that they were going to separate.
"Logging off, boss. I've been looking for you in the forest for half a day. What time is it now? I have to go to work tomorrow!" Gu Fei waved his hand, turned and left. Jian Gui stood on the spot, watching the familiar, powerful, perverted figure gradually walk away and disappear at the corner of the street.

Ah ah ah… Yesterday I was going to write nine thousand to make up for the previous day's break, but something happened again and it was delayed. My full attendance bonus is gone again, tears streaming down my face and howling
