Chapter 376: He Can Still Fight, Surprisingly

~7 min read 1,393 words

Kimura laughed heartily, "If he is disobedient and unwilling to serve General Tokugawa, I can let you dispose of him, as long as you don't kill him."

Young Master Li was overjoyed, "Good, good! The once high and mighty National Preceptor becoming a guest of honor—the nobles of Shengjing will likely be unable to wait, lining up to get a taste of his charms!"

A piercing murderous intent suddenly flared in Zhou Yanli's eyes.

"Shut up!"

But no sooner had he finished speaking than he began to cough violently again; he swayed, and a stream of blood welled up in his mouth.

Bai Wei felt her heart clench and hurriedly steadied his arm, "Stop talking, watch out for your wounds. They are provoking you on purpose; don't pay any mind to their filthy words!"

Zhou Yanli lowered his head, glanced at her coal-dusted paws, hesitated for a moment, but couldn't help himself and said in a low voice.

"Take your hand off..."

Before he could finish, he was too weak to stand and leaned against the wall.

"Bring the National Preceptor over," Kimura ordered.

Two tall thugs immediately walked over.

Manager Liu was also drooling as he scurried forward, "I'm going too. The National Preceptor used to be an immortal descending from the clouds, so handsome and arrogant; I never expected he would have a day where he'd be cast into the mortal dust, hehehe..."

Bai Wei looked up and quickly scanned the area.

There was only one Fusang Samurai, Kimura, but the opponent had a handgun, and there were over a dozen thugs from the Fuji Trading Firm, all of them strong and sturdy.

Although she had a handgun, Zhou Yanli was severely wounded, and facing so many people, she feared she could not protect him.

She had to find a way to get him out safely!

Bai Wei took a deep breath and thought of a plan.

First, send Zhou Yanli back to the modern era!

Then transport the supplies here over, and finally return to the modern era herself!

If she did this, her abilities would be exposed, but there was no better way!

Having made up her mind, Bai Wei immediately closed her eyes and concentrated her energy, intending to teleport Zhou Yanli back to the modern era.

A few seconds later, she opened her eyes.

What was going on?

She couldn't teleport him!

Usually, when she and Xiao Moting teleported things—live chickens, ducks, or even tall horses—they could all be teleported alive, yet now she couldn't teleport Zhou Yanli!

No, she had to try again!

Bai Wei immediately gathered all her focus and used her intent to teleport Zhou Yanli.

Zhou Yanli had been leaning against the wall, eyes closed in pain; at this moment, he sensed Bai Wei's strangeness, covered his wound with one hand, and looked at her with difficulty, "What are you doing?"

Bai Wei opened her eyes, simply unable to believe it.

It still didn't work!

Could it be that her ability could only teleport supplies and animals, but not living people?

At this moment, the two thugs had already rushed to the front and reached out to grab Zhou Yanli.

"Lord National Preceptor, be good and come with us!"

At that very instant, the previously weak Zhou Yanli suddenly opened his eyes, reached out with lightning speed, and grabbed the opponent by the neck.

"Crack!"

The thug's neck was snapped by him in one go, just like a chicken's.

Immediately after, he swung his hand.

The other thug was stunned, and before he could recover, Zhou Yanli slapped his head, shattering it on the spot; red and white matter spilled all over the ground!

The two thugs didn't even let out a groan before they were killed on the spot.

The surroundings fell into a deathly silence.

Everyone's gaze was fixed firmly on Zhou Yanli.

Manager Liu, who had been about to run forward, was so scared he retreated, screaming wildly.

"What is going on? Wasn't he severely wounded? How does he still have the strength to kill?"

Zhou Yanli flicked his hand, and the Iron Bone Fan flew out, spinning.

Manager Liu's body stiffened; his carotid artery was sliced open, and fresh blood gushed out.

A spray of blood splattered onto Zhou Yanli's white robes.

With his white robes stained with blood, he lifted his head indifferently, his eyes filled with bloodlust like a god of slaughter, and he spoke slowly.

"Who is next?"

The surroundings were silent; everyone was stunned.

A moment later, Kimura's laughter broke the stillness.

"Truly impressive. The National Preceptor can actually still fight; his combat power is truly formidable. He will surely be a fierce general under General Tokugawa in the future."

"All of you, attack! I want to see how much strength he has left."

"Whoever can subdue the National Preceptor will be heavily rewarded—ten thousand taels of gold, gold and silver jewelry, take your pick!"

Under the promise of a heavy reward, the crowd was tempted and slowly closed in with their weapons.

Zhou Yanli leaned against the wall, his eyes slightly lowered.

"I can't go on, you go."

Bai Wei shook her head, "How could I abandon you?"

Zhou Yanli coughed up blood and gritted his teeth in anger, "Too much talk! Go—"

Bang!

A crisp gunshot rang out!

The thug charging at the very front had a bloody hole appear in his chest and slowly collapsed, his face still frozen in an expression of disbelieving horror.

Zhou Yanli turned his head with difficulty and was instantly stunned.

Bai Wei stood beside him, holding a Handgun in both hands, her eyes exceptionally calm.

"Bang!"

This time, she shot at Kimura!

Kimura let out a loud cry and fell to the ground, yet he was not killed.

Bai Wei narrowed her eyes.

The Bullet could not penetrate; the opponent was also wearing a Bulletproof Vest!

Seeing that Bai Wei had actually pulled out a gun, killed a thug with one shot, and knocked Kimura to the ground, the people around were all terrified and retreated again and again.

Kimura reacted quickly and immediately raised his gun to fire at Bai Wei.

However, Bai Wei had long been prepared; without a word, she raised her hand and fired a shot.

Bang!

Kimura's right wrist was shattered, he let out a miserable scream, and the gun in his hand dropped to the ground.

"Ah!"

"Samurai Kimura..." Young Master Li was dumbfounded.

Immediately after, as if thinking of something, he grabbed the thug standing dazed nearby and pulled him over, using him as a human shield in front of himself.

At that very instant, a Bullet pierced through the thug's chest, and the thug died on the spot.

Bai Wei frowned.

If it weren't for Young Master Li using the thug as a human shield, she would have pierced Young Master Li's head with that shot!

"You... you actually have a gun too..." Kimura clutched his bloodied right wrist, his eyes bloodshot.

He struggled, wanting to use his left hand to pick up the money.

However, Bai Wei quickly raised her hand and shot his left arm, breaking it.

If it weren't for the fact that the opponent was wearing a Bulletproof Vest and a Steel Helmet, protected so thoroughly, she would have long since killed this Fusang People with one shot!

Both of Kimura's arms were shattered, and he writhed and screamed in pain on the ground.

Seeing Steward Liu dead on the ground, Kimura also having his arms broken by two of Bai Wei's shots, and Young Master Li nearly being killed by a shot, the crowd around fell silent for a moment, then erupted into a chorus of strange cries.

"She, she has a gun too!"

"Run quickly!"

The thugs all belonged to the Fuji Trading Firm and only knew how to wield a Long Sword; this was their first time seeing a Handgun, and they didn't know how to use one at all.

Seeing that Bai Wei's marksmanship was so accurate, the thugs were terrified and fled in all directions.

Bai Wei did not stop them, only keeping her gun barrel aimed at Kimura and Young Master Li.

Now, both of Kimura's arms were ruined and he could no longer fire a gun, while Young Master Li hid behind a crate, trembling with fear.
