Chapter 167: Bitter End

Looking at Ye Cang charging over from across.

And her comrades behind her shook their heads. She and her comrades, one by one, really never quit.

Through his own Sharingan, Dong Shilang could clearly see that the Sand ninja behind Ye Cang each had chakra surging in both legs, appearing ready to burst at any moment.

Looks like these people still haven't given up!

He casually waved the ninja blade in his right hand; Dong Shilang decided it's better not to give them hope, lest cause further pointless slaughter.

As long as they don't provoke him, he has no interest in killing more Sand ninja for the sake of Leaf Village.

If his guess is correct, the war between Leaf Village and the Sand ninja will soon end.

Without any hesitation, watching Ye Cang rush over, Dong Shilang swung his blade and slashed at her upper body.

Although he wasn't particularly serious when he swung that blade, merely the long blade cutting through the air created a pressure that made Ye Cang's face change dramatically.

Clang!

Although she strained to block his incoming blade, the force contained in his blade made it impossible for her to hold onto her kunai.

"How can the gap be so huge?"

At that moment, Ye Cang couldn't accept this result for a while; seeing his physique wasn't strength-oriented, she never expected his attack to be so terrifying.

But her hands, shaking and dripping blood, told her how cruel reality was.

Even the Sand ninja behind him, after seeing this, had the chakra surging in their legs stop.

Dong Shilang's blade completely shattered their idea of leaving her here to wait for reinforcements.

No wonder they were surprised; at this moment Dong Shilang, in strength, speed, defense, chakra, and all aspects,

formed an overwhelming superiority over them.

He casually stuck his ninja blade into the ground, glanced at the Sand ninja present, then turned and left directly.

He can't maintain this state for long; if he drags it out another two or three minutes, when others' reinforcements arrive, it could become troublesome.

As for killing Ye Cang!

He also had no intention of attacking now. Not to mention that in the original story, she is a relatively tragic character; just the Sand ninja behind Ye Cang—seeing that he had no killing intent—allowed Ye Cang to come out and test his strength.

"Stop! You bastard, don't think you can just leave so easily!"

Enduring the intense pain in her hands, Ye Cang drew the blade Dong Shilang had stuck in the ground, gripped it with both hands, pointed the tip at Dong Shilang, and said with determined eyes.

"Ye Cang! Enough!"

"Mission failed! Don't make a fearless sacrifice~"

The Jonin puppet master with white bandages around his head, face painted with oil colors, wearing Sand ninja combat uniform, worried something might happen to her, quickly spoke up.

Although he didn't know why that Uchiha opposite hadn't gone easy on them, Ye Cang repeatedly provoking him was undoubtedly a suicidal act.

Looking at that stubborn girl opposite, Dong Shilang couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

He only spared her because he saw she was destined to meet a miserable end, and also because she herself was a great beauty.

Otherwise, even with those Sand ninja blocking him, could they really stop him from killing her in this state?

【This woman's got some guts!】

【Yeah! With this personality, she won't be sold out in the future, and will even help others count money!】

Looking at the woman wielding a blade and charging at him opposite, Dong Shilang couldn't help but think to himself.

Actually, Ye Cang's condition at this time wasn't great. She had been busy all day, nonstop searching for his whereabouts.

Plus, she had just expended a large amount of chakra resisting Dong Shilang's super-strong Fire Release to save more comrades.

Then he hit her with a violent slash in his sage state, splitting her tiger's mouth until it bled and making her hands go numb~

Forget it, considering how miserably she will die in the future, I won't argue with her; let her suffer a bit.

Watching the long blade thrust straight at him, Dong Shilang's Sharingan slowly rotated, beginning to observe her blade trajectory and any openings.

He extended his left hand forward, two fingers protruding, chakra gathering there. Then with a 'ding', he clamped onto the blade of her long sword and pulled it back forcefully.

At the same time he muttered words under his breath:

"Spot the opening!"

He exerted force with his right hand and threw a punch at her chest.

When her left hand moved to block and protect her vital point, he turned his fist into a palm, driving the natural energy at the edge of his palm to push aside her blocking left hand~

"One palm strike!"

Then……

"Old man pushing cart!"⊙﹏⊙|||

His palm firmly struck her chest, sending her legs off the ground and flying backward.

Then, gauging her landing point, he exerted force with his legs, leaping into midair. His legs slightly bent, chakra gathering in his legs, forming his two knees into sharp angles, aimed at Ye Cang who had just landed and steadied herself, he……

"Guanyin… uh! Wrong! Buddha sitting in meditation!"

Boom!

As Dong Shilang's figure descended, the place where Ye Cang had just been was engulfed in rising dust.

However, amidst the drifting dust, a slender figure could faintly be seen escaping from the chaos, while she also shouted: "Despicable, shameless, lewd!"

She was cursing that his hand had just touched a place it shouldn't have, and also cursing the name of his technique.

She could hardly believe her ears; someone in the world could actually be so shamelessly thick-skinned.

Naming his technique like that… is simply the epitome of shamelessness.

After she had just escaped the range of the smoke~

Whoosh!

A figure instantly appeared before Ye Cang.

Seeing that person's face, and then seeing his abnormal hand movement, Ye Cang's face turned pale with shock, but before she could react……

"Poison Dragon Drill!"

His right hand dangled, joints forming a sharp cone; Dong Shilang punched upward from below, striking Ye Cang's abdomen and sending him flying into the air in a V-shape.

"Mmm… Oh…"

Seeing Ye Cang collapsed before him, he groaned from the sudden heavy blow, then Ye Cang opened his mouth from abdominal pain as if to vomit.

At this moment, Dong Shilang felt completely at ease, as if even his soul had attained a kind of transcendence...

Even the various difficulties he would face in the future seemed to cease to exist, leaving him utterly relaxed...

"You! You! You!"

If looks could kill, Dong Shilang would have been slain countless times by Ye Cang opposite him.

"Eh! This is..."

Fainted...

Could it be that he fainted from anger?
