Strange Cards

Chapter 304 It's time to hit the road.

Shi Yu took a small step forward and then stepped directly into the void.

Shi Yu ascended to the sky step by step, her robes fluttering wildly in the wind.

Holy crap!

"This kid's strength can't possibly be greater than the five hunters combined, can it?"

Yu Yan spoke up, but Liu An shook his head.

Remove "cannot".

"You forgot that when we had our gathering in October, Shiyu already had the ability to take down a headhunter single-handedly. What's more, he has two decks of cards on him, so he might actually be able to take on five opponents at once."

"When is this kid going to rebel? I'll follow him and pull off a heist."

"The boss has been in this position for long enough; it's time to change people."

Liu An looked at Yu Yan, who weighed 101 jin but had the rebellious spirit of 100 jin, and said irritably.

"You should be glad the boss isn't here."

"Have you forgotten that last time in Kyoto you took those two kids to find the weasel and the boss locked us in a dark room?"

"If you say something so outrageous, the boss will take off his belt, soak it in iodine, and beat you up in a bit."

"Disinfecting while spraying is no joke."

Shi Yu, oblivious to the bickering below, used the steel claws that had sprouted from the back of her hand to unleash dozens of claw strikes at Li Yuanling.

Crimson claw strikes shot out one after another, slamming heavily into Li Yuanling's body.

However, Li Yuanling's wounds were only temporary and healed in the next moment.

Shigure's once snow-white hair was now showing signs of turning gray again, but Shigure didn't want to delay any longer, because having her life force devoured by the Nine Shadows was truly unbearable.

Shi Yu drew the Demon Blade, sheathed it, and charged toward Li Yuanling with the blood-red blade in her hand.

Li Yuanling suddenly drew a black longsword and engaged Shi Yu in battle.

However, Shigure's original form was not simple to begin with, not to mention that this original form evolved into the Thunder Blade, and finally into the Asura Soldier.

But the black longsword in Li Yuanling's hand seemed to have a regenerative function; it grew back shortly after being cut off by Shi Yu.

"No, we can't delay any longer."

"We need to resolve this quickly."

Shigure pulled out the scabbard of the Demon Blade from behind him, poured all his power into it, and murmured something.

"Eighty million burials..."

"Life and death, annihilation!"

As soon as Shi Yu finished speaking, he unleashed a fierce slash, which tore through the void and left a huge, blood-red slash mark in the sky.

Li Yuanling knew that she couldn't dodge this move no matter what, so she forced the magic stone out of her body and activated her strongest defensive ability to prepare to withstand Shi Yu's attack.

However, given the difference in strength, Shi Yu was only worried that Jiu Ying would absorb too much of her life force, not that she was truly unable to kill Li Yuanling.

Shi Yu's sword slammed into Li Yuanling's magic stone, even shattering the dark clouds in the sky.

But the slash was only blocked for a few seconds before it was unleashed again, and a faint red aura lingered in the sky until it disappeared.

Shigure sheathed his sword, exhaled slightly, and landed on the ground, looking at the dissipated dark clouds in the sky.

"it's all over."

"No, it's not over yet!!!"

High in the sky, Li Yuanling took out the magic stone that had been shattered into pieces and then reinserted it into his body.

My mother once said something quite insightful.

"Only by abandoning rationality can we truly engage in a game of strategy!"

Suddenly, a large red cloud appeared in the sky, and then long black swords slowly emerged from the red cloud.

"This is my last, and strongest, attack, as I'm risking everything."

"The attack covered the entire Nanhai City area."

"You're at your last gasp, aren't you, Shura?"

"But what happens next..."

Will you call?

"Hahahahahahahahaha!!!"

Shi Yu looked at Li Yuanling, whose face was covered in blood, in the sky, and her expression became more solemn.

Li Yuanling laughed maniacally, as if he had already disregarded his own life and death.

"To have a good time, everyone."

"I've bet everything I have."

"Let's see if you'll call, Shura."

"after all..."

"You're too old to swing your knife a second time, aren't you?"

Seeing the black sword already descending, Shigure used the power of Shura to protect Liu An and the others.

"I truly cannot wield the knife a second time."

"But that doesn't mean he can't."

As he spoke, Shigure directly handed over control of his body to Ace of Spades, who then put away the Demon Blade and took out the Demon Moon Scythe.

Looking at the image reflected on the Ghost Moon Scythe, A poured all the power of the ten Spade cards into the Ghost Moon Scythe, and then swung the Ghost Moon Scythe to unleash a stunning slash.

"Change players."

The area where the slash passed instantly turned black and white, and even time seemed to freeze at that moment.

The single strike cleaved through the entire red cloud, and the black sword that had fallen from it vanished without a trace.

That slash also delivered the final blow to Li Yuanling, shattering the magic stone within his body.

Li Yuanling quickly fell from the sky, barely clinging to life.

A used her own power to save Li Yuanling's life, and then returned control of the body to Shi Yu.

Li Yuanling looked at Shi Yu, who was keeping her alive, and asked in confusion.

"you..."

"Why did you save me?"

"In order to break your resolve."

So he left Li Yuanling with some strength to ensure he wouldn't die suddenly in a short time before releasing Li Yuanling's hand.

"So-called geniuses are nothing more than a group of people cursed by knowledge."

"Those geniuses who call their inhuman experiments genius experiments—if genius is really like that, then I am ashamed to be associated with you, and I would rather not have that title."

"It's not just me; any researcher on this land of China, as long as they serve the country, would not be able to conduct such an inhumane experiment."

"I cannot use test subjects to modify biological weapons, nor can I treat them like pigs or dogs when they are conscious."

"I am still a human being, not one of you heartless beasts."

"So, haven't you hunters ever conducted any inhumane experiments?"

"Has your teleportation satellite never used live people for teleportation? I don't believe you're so confident that there won't be any problems on the first teleportation."

"Alright, I'll tell you myself."

"I don't know how other researchers who are hunters manage to do it, but I only have one test subject."

That's me.

"I was the one who made the test satellite for the experimental subject, and most of the single-unit weapons I developed also had to be tested by me first, and only after I felt they were usable would I report them to headquarters."

"Moreover, I have never touched biological experiments because I know I cannot gamble with those lives for so-called experimental purposes."

"Then what about your hands being stained with blood?"

"To protect this land."

Shi Yu watched as Li Yuanling took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and said...

"I am willing to give my life to protect this land and everything on it."

"Even if I'm tormented to death by the flames of Asura's karma, I'd be willing."

"If I am required to do anything to protect this country, I will do it even if it means cutting down the stars in the sky."

"Alright, that concludes our verbal sparring session."

"As for your philosophy and grievances, I can't be bothered to listen to any of them, because you're on the opposite side of me."

"Besides, you're a cunning villain. No matter how strong you are, you'll die from a single shot in your current state, like a dead dog. And this gun is in my hands right now."

"Villains usually ask why before they die, but I generally don't give them that chance."

"I'm too lazy to listen to your so-called supreme wisdom. Death will cleanly and decisively end everything for you."

So, set off on your journey in peace.

"Your mother should be waiting for you down there. Don't worry, I'll bring your father down soon too."

"I will ensure that your family will have company on the road to the underworld, so you will not be lonely."

As she spoke, Shi Yu raised her foot and stomped on Li Yuanling's head, crushing it.

The red and white mixture was splattered everywhere, and Shigure cleaned the red and white filth off his body with Asura Karmic Fire.

"That's all for now."
