Indeed, in the underworld, mutual flattery is basic etiquette.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The assailant refused to show his face, so Fu Qian fixed his gaze on the assailant’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Contrastingly, the weapon that fired those pitch-black arrows was a hand crossbow glowing with a warm, bright light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At first glance, it exuded a pure, sacred aura, giving one the feeling of basking in the warm morning sun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at that moment, another black arrow was rapidly taking shape on the crossbow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This transcendent weapon was quite convenient—if only his own Mercy could automatically generate bullets, he wouldn’t need to extort Chief Yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Where did you, a sneak-attacking rat who dares not show his true face, come from?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After examining for a few seconds, Fu Qian scoffed contemptuously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“…Aren’t you also wearing a mask?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The opponent was somewhat puzzled by this comment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“How can that be the same? I do so only because petty thieves do not deserve to see my true face.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, such a retort was unlikely to confound Fu Qian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s just right…what a dying man looks like doesn’t matter anyway.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newcomer nodded, seemingly having no intention of engaging in verbal sparring with Fu Qian. As he spoke, another Black Arrow shot out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, with Fu Qian prepared, it naturally missed it’s mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If your only trick is sneaking attacks from behind, I’m not interested in indulging you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian stared at the other party, making a motion as if he was about to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After firing the third arrow, however, the hand crossbow surprisingly stopped gathering any black light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be so impatient…cough cough, you are definitely going to be buried here today…cough.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet the ambusher, while issuing harsh words, actually hung the hand crossbow back on his waist and even coughed a few times, looking utterly exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh? Then I really want to see what grand technique you have up your sleeve!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian took a step forward, seemingly a bit interested now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just at that moment, a red light flashed in front of him, as if something swept across from the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without clashing directly, Fu Qian agilely dodged this strike and discovered it was a rope seemingly made of countless fine threads, shining with a deep red hue in the night sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And at both ends of the rope were two black crossbow bolts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Was shooting arrows earlier just for this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian said, suddenly understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Quite a method, but shouldn’t there be three—”Before he could finish speaking, two more deep red chains streaked across the sky, forming a triangle with the first one and trapped him right in the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I said don’t be hasty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ambusher coughed twice again, his breath finally evening out, and his demeanor was utterly confident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, this person’s fingers fluttered, and the three chains whipped towards the center simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tremendous oppressive force came forth, as if even the air had thickened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Stationed at the center, Fu Qian was undoubtedly the focus of this pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in their interplay, the coordination of the three chains was perfectly executed, leaving him virtually no gaps to exploit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Bring it on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In this situation, Fu Qian didn’t seem inclined to look for any gaps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He directly chose the direction of the ambusher and in the next moment, he surged forward violently, his hands transforming into a claw and a hammer, confronting the chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fierce clanging sound erupted, and under the impact, the chains shuddered violently, even sparking like fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet even so, they remained stubbornly resilient and showed no signs of tearing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tired, cough-inducing summon was indeed as tough as it was meant to be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to break out, the clamping of the three chains caught up to him, and Fu Qian had to dodge consecutively, retreating back to the center of the triangle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I told you, you’re going to be buried here today, why didn’t you believe it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ambusher’s momentum soared to the skies, and with a low chuckle, his palm moved again, whipping countless fine threads from the three chains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The threads wafted and drifted, quickly forming a net, overwhelming everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good move!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the red silk net inching closer to the center, Fu Qian, in a desperate situation, suddenly stood motionless next time, seemingly resigned to his fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when the silk net was about to entangle him, a golden light burst forth from his body, surging violently in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The brilliant gold dispersed every trace of darkness around, almost compelling reverence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a soundless moment, the intricate net disintegrated into pieces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is this the legendary Vajra Subduing Demon Circle? Seeing it today, it truly lives up to its fame!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, Fu Qian brought his palms together, his lines too cringe-inducing to look at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I also want to express my special thanks.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve realized!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1253,"2026-06-03T07:50:46.539Z","2026-06-03T07:50:52.553Z",1,"novelbin.me","f77fadbb0c6f60e0adfc72a235136d7bf4d5687068d26f5051f820092874025e","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-894","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-892",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
