I'm farming treasure chests in the female-oriented world.

Chapter 61 Encirclement and Kill

A secluded street in the old town.

Just as Xia Xue's motorcycle reached the middle, a white sedan wobbled towards them from the other end of the intersection.

Seeing this, Xia Xue couldn't help but slow down.

Slowly pulling over to the side of the road, Xia Xue got out of the car, took off her helmet, and stared coldly at the obviously drunk driver. Along the green belt, she held her helmet in her left hand, tapping it gently and rhythmically with her index finger, while her right hand lightly stroked the neatly trimmed holly bushes. Like a tiger hunting its prey, she walked slowly and resolutely toward the car.

A ball suddenly jumped out of a doorway by the roadside, and a little boy who looked about seven or eight years old chased after it.

"Ball, ball, don't run away, don't run away..."

The little boy seemed not to see the cars speeding towards him on the highway, and chased the ball into the middle of the road.

The white car seemed to react to the sound and rammed straight into the little boy.

"careful."

Xia Xue exclaimed in surprise, leaped into the air, and rushed towards the little boy who was still completely unaware of what was happening.

In a nearby house, a Nian Shi wearing a pure white mask and sitting in a wheelchair praised in an old, hoarse voice, "Amazing! How did you predict that Xia Xue would stop and jump up to save that little boy?"

The old man, who had mastered the martial arts, said respectfully and smugly, "I just studied Xia Xue's information and found that she is extremely righteous. Whenever she encounters injustice, she will always take action. As expected, with just a little planning, we forced her to jump into the air and become our live target. Haha."

The old man offered an explanation, then suddenly a glint of light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted, "Now!"

One after another, willow-leaf-shaped throwing knives shot out from the surrounding rooftops, heading straight for Xia Xue, whose strength was exhausted and whose new strength had not yet been generated in mid-air.

"The timing was perfect."

Xia Xue gave a cold laugh.

"Only eight experts at the Inner Strength level? This lineup is not enough to impress you."

Xia Xue flipped her right hand, and more than a dozen holly leaves shot out like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

The darts were struck by holly leaves while still in mid-air.

A "ding" sounded.

The leaves, though soft, produced a crisp sound upon impact with the dart, a sound only metal could make.

After knocking down the darts, there were still eight holly leaves left over, which flew straight towards the location where the eight hidden experts were hiding.

The eight martial artists with internal strength who had just finished throwing darts and were about to move were hit by holly leaves and fell to the ground without making a sound.

In the nearby houses, seeing eight martial artists with internal strength instantly killed by more than a dozen leaves, the Nian Master said, "Flying leaves to pluck flowers, tsk tsk, I used to think it was just a fantasy in martial arts novels, I never thought that martial artists with external strength could actually do it."

The old man with the Transformation Realm said with a solemn expression, "This person's strength has already reached the peak of the Grandmaster level. I'm afraid he's just one step away from breaking through to the Transformation Realm and reaching the legendary Dan Jin realm. To reach such a realm at only eighteen years old is truly a martial arts prodigy. What a pity."

The Nian Master asked curiously, "Dan Jin?"

A hint of longing flashed in the old man's eyes.

"That is the true transcendent realm of martial artists. A Dan Jin martial artist can rival a Xuan Master. Unfortunately, even a martial arts prodigy like Xia Xue is not a good match for me. The difference between the mortal and the transcendent is only a step, but it is like an insurmountable chasm. Since ancient times, it has blocked countless brilliant martial arts prodigies."

The master reminded him, "Your plan has failed. Do you have a backup plan?"

The old man, who had mastered the Transformation Realm, smiled confidently and said, "Of course, Master Nian, just wait and see, there's more to come."

……

"A trivial skill."

Xia Xue said dismissively, and as if nothing had happened, she flew down next to the little boy, facing the oncoming car head-on. Her feet were like old trees rooted to the ground, and she slammed down with a heavy palm.

boom.

The speeding car came to an abrupt stop due to the heavy impact on its front end. The rear end, due to inertia, rose high into the air. The driver inside the car was directly hit by the airbags caused by this sudden stop, and was knocked unconscious.

The instant Xia Xue struck, a gunshot rang out from the distant rooftop. A sniper bullet, traveling at a speed far exceeding that of a dart, shot towards her chest almost instantly.

In the residential area, the moment the gunshot rang out, Nian Shi let out a cry of alarm.

"How dare you use a gun in China?"

And it's a sniper rifle.

"Are you out of your mind?"

The old man, who had reached the Transformation Realm, glanced at the Nian Master and frowned slightly.

"Master Nian, everything is for the mission. I will take responsibility for anything that happens."

Master Nian was so angry that he laughed.

"You thought I was talking about the mission?"

The mage's gaze fell upon the battlefield.

He snorted coldly: "I'm just worried that even if we complete our mission, we won't be able to leave the Dragon Kingdom safely."

After all, whether or not a gun is used, the nature of the case is completely different in China.

The old man, who had mastered the martial arts, smiled dismissively.

"Master Nian, you have too high an opinion of the Dragon Kingdom."

The Nian Master glanced at the old man at the Transformation Realm as if he were a dead man.

"I hope your abilities are as impressive as you claim."

The old man with the Transformation Realm shifted his gaze from the Nian Master, his awe lessened and his arrogance more evident.

"Then there's no need for you to trouble yourself, Master Nian."

The Nian Master's gaze toward the old man who had reached the Transformation Realm grew even colder.

Almost the instant Xia Xue struck out, she turned to the side, and the sniper bullet grazed her clothes before hitting the car in front of her.

Xia Xue suddenly turned her head and instantly threw out a strawberry-flavored hard candy with her left hand.

The sniper on the rooftop a hundred meters away had a premonition the moment he fired that the shot might miss. Although he felt regret, his actions were very decisive and without any hesitation.

But as soon as he put away his gun, a piece of fruit candy flew in front of him and hit him squarely in the chest.

The sniper fell dead instantly, without a sound.

In the residential building, Nian Shi glanced at the old man who had reached the Transformation Realm with a playful expression.

"Your methods have failed again. Do you have any more?"

The old man, whose face was grim, said, "You gave me too little time and too few people. If you had given me more time to prepare and more manpower, I would have made sure that this little girl, who hasn't even grown up yet, would never return and would die without a burial place."

The Nian Master's gaze toward the old man who had reached the Transformation Realm grew even colder.

"What do we do now?"

The old man, who had reached the Transformation Realm, said directly, "Abandon the mission."

Once you reach the Grandmaster level, you're no longer cannon fodder; you have the right to refuse missions, and even the right to abandon them.

Even if the mission fails, it's just a matter of being fined, having one's rank reduced, and being given the cold shoulder. But compared to one's life, that's nothing.

Nian Shi shrugged indifferently.

"what ever."

Anyway, the failure of this mission was not his fault.

"Do you think Jiangcheng is a place you can come and go as you please?"
