With a solemn expression, Lin Yun instructed Feng Ke softly. “Run. I will detain her.”

He did not realize that, behind him, a beam of red light appeared and started flashing in Feng Ke’s eyes.

“None of you can escape today. Die!” Guo Yun’s eyes looked crazed with destructive intent, as though she wanted to rip Lin Yun apart. She spat out the words through gritted teeth, her finger about to press onto the trigger.

“Swoosh!”

At this crucial moment, a few beams of light flew out from the dense forest without warning. Guo Yun, who was in an agitated state, failed to sense them immediately. Therefore, when she wanted to evade them, it was too late.

A few steel needles pierced through Guo Yun’s right hand that was lifting the long-barrelled shotgun. The shotgun had yet to open fire when it dropped onto the ground.

“A steel needle. Can it be…” Lin Yun was ecstatic upon spotting the familiar steel needles.

Song Junming slowly walked out from the dense forest with a long knife in his hand and a grin on his face.

“Thank god, I’m not too late.”

As soon as he said that, he threw out another wave of steel needles.

However, Guo Yun was already prepared at this point in time. She waved her sleeve in the air, forcing the wave of steel needles to change trajectory and puncture one of the trees.

“Defeat her, then we can reminisce with one another.”

Lin Yun said before charging towards Guo Yun. Yet, a figure brushed past him swiftly and had already started engaging in a fight with her.

It was Feng Ke.

This shocked Lin Yun. Her speed was much faster than his own!

Feng Ke’s martial art was methodical; she evidently had undergone very high-level martial arts training. She was very agile, knowing when to advance and retreat, allowing her to barely be able to resist Guo Yun’s attacks.

Song Junming and Lin Yun joined the battle in the next instant, forcing Guo Yun to defend against a three-person siege alone.

Song Junming’s knife skills were exceptional. Each move was faster than the last, each slash emitting brilliant white light. It was as though he was playing with ribbons. The reflecting light from the knife’s blade seemed to shine on Guo Yun’s eyes purposely, obscuring her vision.

Feng Ke’s fighting capabilities were even more impressive. Each move of hers was filled with exceptional dexterity. Some unexplainable moves could unexpectedly hit Guo Yun, making it seem as though she had intentionally offered herself up for Feng Ke to hit her.

Lin Yun had to admit that he possessed the weakest battle power. As Feng Ke continued to fight, he discovered that her eyes were flashing faintly with a red light. This made Lin Yun recall the female infant he encountered during the epic mission. Did Feng Ke have Demon Race blood running in her?

Wounds littered Guo Yun’s body after a short period of time. Soon, she would be killed by the three of them.

Upon sensing an intense death threat, Guo Yun shrieked suddenly,

“You guys forced me! I will let all of you see the true power of a Level 7 body!”

Following Guo Yun’s scream, her originally skinny and weak body swelled like a balloon being pumped with air. Thick muscles suddenly protruded from her slender body, and they seemed to contain boundless energy.

“A Genetic Modification Potion!” exclaimed Feng Ke upon witnessing Guo Yun’s bizarre change.

“Hahaha. Little girl, you actually recognized the Genetic Modification potion. That’s right, this is the result of the transformation the body undergoes after long-term use of the potion!” Guo Yun shouted hoarsely with bloodshot eyes and protruding veins.

“The Genetic Modification Potion you consumed is of a poor grade. It did increase your Physical Strength, but your strength will never be able to improve from this point on. The physical strength and sturdiness of your body are only at Level 7, but your speed, reaction speed, and endurance remained the same. Rather than Level 7, it’s more accurate to describe it as peak Level 6, or pseudo Level 7.” Feng Ke analyzed coolly, her eyes flashing with a red light.

Seizing the opportunity when Guo Yun was distracted with all the chatting, Song Junming, standing behind her, exerted his full strength to slash at her. Guo Yun slightly evaded to the side and used her right arm to block the attack.

“Clatter!”

A sound of metal clashing together could be heard. Guo Yun’s right arm managed to block Song Junming’s attack!

The resulting recoil from the clash caused Song Junming’s arms to vibrate and become numb. Only a white impression formed on Guo Yun’s arm.

The defense of a Level 7 Physical Strength body was actually impermeable!

The whole battle situation immediately changed. By making use of her powerful defense, Guo Yun took the advantage in the battlefield. She didn’t evade any of their attacks, while her fists acted like metal hammers that could cause bones to crack and organs to rupture.

“Don’t face her head-on! Aim at her eyes!” Lin Yun shouted a reminder upon seeing this situation.

Feng Ke’s movement changed as she circled around Guo Yun like an agile little fish. Song Junming discarded his long knife and took out a whip from his waist. He was merely trying to disrupt the enemy and not necessarily to injure her.

Lin Yun seized the window of opportunity and exited the ongoing siege. Picking up the long-barrelled gun Guo Yun dropped onto the ground, he made use of his extraordinary vision to capture her movements. Then, he intended to lay in wait and kill her.

The opportunity had finally arrived.

Feng Ke’s hands danced like butterflies fluttering in flight, aiming at Guo Yun’s eyes. The latter hastily blocked her eyes with her hands, and Song Junming used this opportunity to bind her legs with the whip.

“Now!”

Lin Yun aimed at Guo Yun’s heart and pulled the trigger.

“Bam!”

Guo Yun crossed her arms across her chest. The bullet brushed past the skin of her arm, causing it to bleed a little.

“Hahaha! With my Level 7 Physical Strength, an ordinary bullet can never threaten my life!”

Guo Yun cackled manically, her laughter causing the surrounding tree leaves to shake, and birds to fly out in alarm.

“Bam!”

The next gunshot landed on Guo Yun’s forehead.

“Ahhhh—”

Guo Yun let out a bloodcurdling scream as her head flew backward due to the force of the bullet. When she lifted her head back upright, two trails of blood were flowing down her cheeks from her eyes. This bullet had blinded her.

Lin Yun’s first gunshot only acted as a cover, baiting Guo Yun to block her chest and lower her guard for her eyes. The second shot immediately after was Lin Yun’s true target.

Having lost her sight, Guo Yun’s aura became even more berserk. After a slight struggle, her legs broke Song Junming’s whip into several pieces. She charged at Lin Yun and hollered like a ferocious beast in a frenzy.

“Hmph! Did you think I’m at a disadvantage simply because I lost my sight? My Spiritual Strength is at peak Level 5!”

Guo Yun bellowed arrogantly as she suddenly charged at Lin Yun. Her blindness did not affect her in the slightest.

Lin Yun felt a strong sense of danger. Among the three of them, Lin Yun was the weakest, which was the reason why Guo Yun did not take much notice of him in the first place. This was because his attacks could not cause much harm to her. Nonetheless, that shot by Lin Yun deeply angered Guo Yun, thus she wanted to kill him first.

“Run, Lin Yun!” Feng Ke shouted anxiously, quickly moving to place herself in front of him with the intention of acting as a shield.

However, Feng Ke’s specialty was not in her strength, but her moves. She failed to stop Guo Yun and even took a punch from the latter in her abdomen. Falling to the ground, she lost her fighting capability.

“Feng Ke!”

Lin Yun was filled with rage when he saw her falling to the ground. His hatred was so strong and unprecedented that his eyes turned bloodshot. A vein protruded on his forehead. He jerked the long-barreled gun in his hand up and aimed at Guo Yun’s head.

“It’s useless. It will not injure me even if you shot my head.” Guo Yun taunted as she burst out laughing. Her speed did not lessen as she charged at Lin Yun.

Guo Yun was telling the truth. The skull was the hardest part of the human body. Guo Yun’s transformed body possessed Level 7 Physical Strength, and her skull was even harder and could not be injured by Lin Yun. She merely lost her sight when Lin Yun shot at her most delicate part—her eyes. What use would there be if Lin Yun successfully shot at her head?

Yet, Lin Yun continued to aim the gun at her head.

Why did she choose to not evade? One threatening punch thrown with her full-strength could kill him, given that his Physical Strength was only at Level 4. What use was there to shoot so harmlessly at her?

Feng Ke recognized this fact as well and she anxiously hollered. “Move away, Lin Yun!”

“Escape? It can only prolong your inevitable death. There’s no way you’re able to evade my attack with your snail-like speed.” Guo Yun ridiculed, sounding happy that she could finally get her revenge.

Lin Yun did not evade. Rather, he held onto the long-barreled gun with steady hands and stared at Guo Yun’s wide-open mouth from laughing. Guo Yun was less than three meters away from Lin Yun.

A ray of light flew at Guo Yun, as Song Junming’s blue eyes let out a bright gleam of light.

Spiritual Shock!

This was a Spiritual Shock Song Junming executed with his Level 5 Spirit Strength!

At that point of attack, Guo Yun was fast approaching Lin Yun.

Guo Yun was forced to stop moving. Her open, cackling mouth froze along with her entire body.

However, Guo Yun’s Spiritual Strength had reached peak Level 5. The Spiritual Shock Song Junming executed with all his might only succeeded in making her movements pause. Guo Yun’s Spirit remained unharmed.

Despite that, Song Junming had reached his objective. He flung a wave of steel needles toward Guo Yun’s face with all his strength.

“Clang, Clatter!”

Countless sounds of metal clashing rang. Those steel needles seemed to collide onto a sturdy steel sheet as they fell to the ground from Guo Yun’s face. Only some tiny red dots appeared as though her face was bitten by mosquitoes.

The defense of a Level 7 Physical Strength body was actually so powerful!

Song Junming, who had exhausted all his Spirit, collapsed onto the ground. Guo Yun’s facial muscles started to twitch slightly. In the next moment, she would recover from the Spiritual Shock Song Junming gave her. They would certainly be killed by her then.

Is this the end?

Feng Ke and Song Junming looked at Lin Yun at the same time, smiling bitterly.

All of a sudden, Lin Yun leaped toward Guo Yun, the mouth of the long-barreled gun pointing at Guo Yun’s head.

No, it’s still not the end!
