Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 2039 - 2102: Try Me If You Don’t Believe It
Bam! Li Yifei unleashed a series of continuous kicks, landing both feet on Gu Yapeng’s hands, forcing him into a defensive position and unable to attack. Then, Li Yifei drew closer, using a shoulder strike from the Mountain-leaning technique to slam Gu Yapeng’s body fiercely aside.
Gu Yapeng couldn’t even react before being knocked away by Li Yifei. He clutched his chest, his expression showing some pain.
During this exchange, Gu Yapeng suddenly understood something: Li Yifei was much stronger than he had imagined. Reluctantly, Gu Yapeng had to admit that his opponent was even stronger than himself. Despite his persistent attacks, they bore no fruit, whereas Li Yifei’s hits landed one by one. Even though the damage wasn’t severe, he felt extremely vexed.
The more anxious he got, the more flaws appeared in his technique. Gu Yapeng hadn’t realized this earlier as he was single-mindedly focused on quickly defeating Li Yifei. As a result, he...
Wei Ziang and the others also started to get anxious. Was this leading to a loss?
The people in the villa were feeling more and more relaxed. From the start of the fight until now, Li Yifei had been in control, growing more fierce as the fight went on, while the other side was steadily losing ground, nearing defeat.
Li Yifei furrowed his brows, clenched his fist, giving Gu Yapeng no time to catch his breath, then charged forward with steps, using a set of movements similar to Arhat Fist. In Gu Yapeng’s mind, he angrily shouted, "Damn it, who is really from an Orthodox Sect here? You, with your rustic, wild techniques, know more moves than I do, and you’ve even shown several new ones in this short time!"
Screaming internally, Gu Yapeng hurriedly responded.
After a minute, Li Yifei, like a fierce tiger descending the mountain, once again kicked Gu Yapeng away—a continuous kick series, hitting the opponent’s chest consecutively. And that wasn’t all. The aggressive True Qi surged like a flood into Gu Yapeng’s chest cavity, leaving him unable to gasp a breath of True Qi before Li Yifei shattered his defense.
With a thud, Gu Yapeng fell to his knees, skidding backward on the ground, leaving a trace behind.
Li Yifei withdrew, standing proudly, his face as calm as still water with neither the joy of victory nor the arrogance of a victor. He simply looked at Gu Yapeng with a peaceful expression, seemingly saying, "Compared to me, you are far behind." Of course, Li Yifei also knew that Gu Yapeng’s ability might not be limited to this. He abandoned his most used weapon and chose to engage in a fistfight with him, which was abandoning what he did best for a lesser route and showcased his arrogance.
Having been trained in the military, Li Yifei initially established his reputation as a king of soldiers with relentless hand-to-hand combat. Over time, he became more skilled and adept. On the other hand, Gu Yapeng excelled in swordsmanship. To show off, he directly placed his sword in the tree, thinking he had shown great skill, not realizing he had abandoned his best asset right at the beginning, attacking the strong with the weak, and even weakening himself.
Li Yifei, however, was not proficient in swordsmanship or blade techniques, but he excelled at life-risking moves. Once he felt his life was threatened, his desperate techniques were more than Gu Yapeng could handle.
Thus, Gu Yapeng’s defeat was inevitable, but it was hard for him to accept. His chest bones seemed shattered from Li Yifei’s continuous kicks, resulting in severe internal injuries. His True Qi was in disarray. Gu Yapeng tried to gather his True Qi, risking worsening his internal injuries. He slapped his palms on the ground, leaping up, and charged at Li Yifei again.
He’s coming again! Li Yifei’s gaze sharpened as he calmly responded. The sound of collision was constant, but Li Yifei had an obvious upper hand. Within a few breaths, he had again kicked Gu Yapeng away. This time, Gu Yapeng felt as if his chest bones were completely broken. He fell heavily to the ground, letting out a painful sound.
Defeated? Wei Ziang and the others were stunned, their mouths dry and bitter. The reason they dared to challenge Li Yifei this time was Gu Yapeng, who was initially full of confidence. But within just a few minutes of engagement, Gu Yapeng was already lying on the ground in pain, apparently unable to continue fighting.
"Damn!" Each of them cursed silently, looking at Li Yifei as if he were a monster. Still, no one dared to help Gu Yapeng, who was dozens of meters away, fearing they’d be caught up in it.
The people inside the villa cheered loudly. Even Liang Zicheng and Yi Long clenched their fists and shook them vigorously, seemingly very satisfied.
Li Yifei walked several meters in front of Gu Yapeng, looking down at him. Seeing that Gu Yapeng had no more strength to fight, Li Yifei said, "You’ve lost."
A painful expression appeared on Gu Yapeng’s face. He wanted to stand up and continue fighting, but doing so would severely worsen his internal injuries, and his chances of victory were incredibly low. He might even be beaten severely by Li Yifei.
So, Gu Yapeng forcefully closed his eyes, his face flushed, and the scar at the corner of his eye twitched. This scar was from when he challenged his senior brother in his younger days and was disciplined by him. Although his senior brother was later criticized by their master and others, the scar remained.
"The sword is mine now. Since you’ve lost, restrain your people in the future from harassing the families of Liang Zicheng and Yi Long, or you’d appear disgraceful," Li Yifei said, not waiting for Gu Yapeng to speak before turning to the tree not far away. The Blue Glow, gifted to Gu Yapeng by his master, was embedded in it, a few inches deep. Li Yifei walked slowly over, pulled the Blue Glow out, and held it in his hand, feeling a peculiar power.
The sword itself carried power, something Li Yifei had never encountered, not even with the giant sword he acquired through the Vietnamese formation.
With one hand holding the sword and the other on the sheath, Li Yifei drew the treasured sword with a metallic ring. A cold gleam passed, bringing a chill, catching even Li Yifei by surprise, making him shiver involuntarily.
"Good sword!" Li Yifei praised, and even looked at Gu Yapeng with less disdain. After all, this guy blocked him early in the morning to give him a treasured sword. You don’t hit a smiling face, as they say. Li Yifei casually twirled the sword, the cold light flashed, emanating an intimidating glow, making Wei Ziang and the others from afar even more afraid to move.
No wonder Xu Chao and the others failed last night. Against such a formidable opponent, sending more people would be useless. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
Li Yifei sheathed the sword, holding it with one hand, turned his head to look at Wei Ziang and the others again, and said, "I know you have grievances against me."
Wei Ziang and the others immediately shrank their necks, avoiding Li Yifei’s gaze. Then they heard Li Yifei say, "Many people have grievances against me, you’re just a few more. If you want to find trouble with me, feel free to go to Ning Province, but Liang Zicheng and Yi Long’s families haven’t provoked you. If I find out you’re targeting them, don’t blame me for being impolite. Although my family isn’t as powerful as your Capital City families and local tycoons, if I get angry and act, your families may not be able to protect you!"
A blatant threat, a wave of humiliation surged within them at once, but they really had no way against Li Yifei. What he said hit the point; even Gu Yapeng was defeated, so how could they possibly risk going head-to-head with Li Yifei?
"If you don’t believe it, you can try!" After Li Yifei finished speaking, he glanced at them and turned to walk toward the villa.
"If you don’t believe it, you can try!" Such an arrogant statement! Wei Ziang and the others silently cursed Li Yifei, but none dared to confront him directly, so they could only watch as Li Yifei leisurely walked back to the villa.
Pushing the door open, Li Yifei was welcomed by eager faces. Chu Xiaoyao unabashedly threw herself into his arms, exclaiming, "Husband, you’re amazing!"
"Be careful not to get poked by the sword!" Li Yifei adjusted his grip, holding Chu Xiaoyao with one arm, accepting her cheers. After Chu Xiaoyao left his embrace, Li Yifei looked at Liang Zicheng, Yi Long, and the others.
"Thank you, Mr. Li, for stepping in!" Liang Zicheng and Yi Long quickly expressed.
Li Yifei smiled and said, "Although I’ve warned them, you still need to be careful."
"We understand, but we still want to thank you for solving a big problem for us." The two nodded earnestly.
Li Yifei then heard Xu Shanshan mutter, "If I’d known they were this weak, I’d have gone up instead."
"You, ah, actually, he wasn’t weak. It wouldn’t be easy for you to win if you faced him. Of course, he wouldn’t easily defeat you either. He gave up his advantage to engage me in close combat, which was an arrogant mistake. Next time, if you meet him, don’t underestimate him." Li Yifei said seriously.
Xu Shanshan rolled her eyes at Li Yifei and said, "Alright, I got it. You’ve already beaten him like this; who knows if he’ll even dare show up in front of us next time."
"Perhaps, but with the sword in my hand, doesn’t he want it back?" Li Yifei chuckled.
This sword is definitely good, but getting it might bring subsequent troubles. Li Yifei took it for two reasons. One, he really thought this sword was great and wanted to enrich his weapons collection. Secondly, having the sword in his hand could lessen the hatred from those outside towards Liang Zicheng and Yi Long, ensuring that after he left, they wouldn’t turn against their families.
Helping others to the end, Li Yifei considered it a conclusion to the matter.
Liang Zicheng and Yi Long understood the reasoning and felt even more grateful and impressed with Li Yifei. They now realized that Li Yifei’s rapid rise and development to such a level wasn’t without reason, as his actions clearly showed.
He was principled and righteous; the two indeed wanted to give a thumbs up.
After a short rest, Li Yifei and a few wives and children prepared to go to the airport, with the Li family’s charter plane waiting, so there was no concern about missing the flight.
Outside, after Li Yifei entered the room, Wei Ziang and the others dared to rush over, helping Gu Yapeng up, quickly got him into the car, and hurriedly fled.
As to whether Li Yifei’s warning would be effective, Li Yifei didn’t know.
Liang Zicheng and Yi Long’s families escorted Li Yifei and his group to the airport, watching them board the plane before turning back. Both families had been through a lot in the past few days and needed to recover. However, regarding their daughters, they were quite relieved. If it weren’t for their good relationship with Li Yifei, things wouldn’t have turned out so well.
