Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend Chapter 970 970: Strategic Retreat

The final battle this ti, Xiaofan had anticipated would be extrely arduous, but he hadn't expected that despite catching Muto off guard, he still had no way to deal with him.

The injury situation on Lin Hongbin and Penghai's side was worsening, and delaying even one more minute was exceedingly difficult for them. Moreover, as soon as the enemy reinforcents arrived, there would be no hope left.

'Bang.'

"Xiaofan..."

Sensing sothing was wrong, Li San suddenly shouted in terror.

It turned out Xiaofan had been ambushed by Muto's junior brother inadvertently, taking a strike to the back.

Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Xiaofan realized he couldn't hold on any longer.

"Everyone, gather towards ."

Xiaofan shouted, and everyone? What was he planning? Bringing Lin Hongbin and the others over would undoubtedly make things even worse, right?

Given the skills of Lin Hongbin and the Hidden Assassination Squad, facing Muto and his three junior brothers would only result in being slaughtered. However, even though everyone understood this clearly, they resolutely converged towards him.

"Brother Tang, cover for two seconds."

"Okay."

Two seconds was enough ti for a top expert to make three deadly attacks.

With a swift movent, Xiaofan dashed towards the elderly man pursuing Tang Tianyou, three toothpicks shot through the air. The sound they made tearing through the air was as crisp as insect chirping.

Such fast hidden weapons.

Clearly, the opponent had seen Tang Tianyou's silver needles before, but compared to them, the toothpicks this young man was using, though seemingly lightweight and powerless, had slightly greater penetration power than Tang Tianyou's silver needles.

'Bang.'

After narrowly dodging, Xiaofan unleashed a Buddha's Fury he had been charging up for so ti. The elder hastily defended, but was blasted eight ters away by Xiaofan.

If Xiaofan wanted to kill him, he only needed three more moves, but two seconds was already Tang Tianyou's limit. After all, he was facing Muto...

"Brother Tang, go cover Li San, find an opening imdiately and help Lin and Peng break through." Xiaofan turned and rushed back, blocking a lethal attack from Muto for Tang Tianyou.

Facing this attack, Tang Tianyou turned a bit pale; they agreed on two seconds and two seconds it was, any longer and he would really have perished at the opponent's hands. It was truly terrifying, yet young brother Ye Xiaofan could move between the two of them unscathed; it was clear his strength far exceeded his own.

"Li San, once you get out of here, take Lin Hongbin and the others and retreat imdiately, as quickly as possible."

"What? What about you?"

As they spoke, Tang Tianyou had already reached Li San's side, tossing out five toothpicks to force the opponent back, creating an opening for Li San.

"You guys go first, I'll join you shortly."

"But you have to face four people at once, you..."

"Follow my command."

Xiaofan sternly issued the command, and then his entire body emanated a terrifying Killing Qi.

It was here, Xiaofan's signature deadly move, striking from a deadly position to be reborn.

The Killing Qi instantly spread across the battlefield, even the subordinates pursuing Lin Hongbin and the others paused almost simultaneously, their eyes filled with terror.

"This kid..."

Muto's three junior brothers looked in terror at Xiaofan before them, unable to believe that such terrifying Killing Qi could emanate from a young man about twenty years old.

"Go."

"Damn, showing off again?" Li San cursed while turning around and rushing with Tang Tianyou to join Lin Hongbin and the others, using the mont the two were distracted by Xiaofan's Killing Qi.

"Don't let them escape." Muto naturally understood Xiaofan's intention to have his companions retreat first, imdiately ordering his two junior brothers to pursue Li San and Tang Tianyou.

'Whoosh.'

A swift shadow blocked their path, with overwhelming Killing Qi enveloping them, forcing the two elders to dare not step forward.

Indeed, this kid's strength was remarkably powerful, no wonder Muto had issues dealing with him. It was no wonder, indeed, that the whole of Japan had been unsettled by him.

"Alright, we'll kill you first, just taking down one Ye Xiaofan would be enough to offset a horde of those useless guys." Muto shouted and initiated a fierce attack on Xiaofan.

The hand waved slightly, a toothpick appearing in his hand, but this ti Xiaofan didn't throw it out; he gripped it tightly, using it as a weapon while charging at Muto.

anwhile, on the other side, as soon as Li San and Tang Tianyou arrived, they helped Lin Hongbin and the others break out of their crisis in an instant.

At different levels, Li San and Tang Tianyou moved as if in an uninhabited land.

Just like earlier, the two stood on the spot blocking everyone, not allowing the opponents to advance a single step. Now, they could move freely, and combined with Penghai and the others, breaking through was no longer difficult. Even wiping out these subordinates was just a matter of ti.

However, everyone knew ti was running short. The opponent's reinforcents were likely to arrive soon.

So, they had to follow Xiaofan's plan and retreat first.

Over twenty of Muto's subordinates lay dead on the ground, while Lin Hongbin and the Hidden Assassination Squad mbers had only suffered minor injuries. Technically, this battle wasn't lost.

"Big Brother Li San, we're leaving, what about Big Brother Xiaofan?" He Qiang caught up with Li San and asked quietly.

"Xiaofan..." Li San was also troubled by this, only able to shout through the communicator.

Yet, Xiaofan truly had no ti to even speak then.

"Go."

That one word embodied his responsibility as a leader. Long ago, Xiaofan had made it clear that if anyone doubted his orders, they must leave his team. If they didn't follow his commands, Ye Xiaofan himself would make them leave...

Seeing Xiaofan in a tough fight, Li San prepared to turn back to help but was held back by Tang Tianyou.

"Old Tang..."

"..." Tang Tianyou shook his head firmly at Li San: "Believe in him."

"Damn..."

Cursing softly, Li San clenched his fists, his silhouette flashing as he charged into the enemy ranks; in just an instant, this swift Swallow took three lives.

Wielding a blood-streaked dagger, Li San led the way, breaking out with Lin Hongbin and the others. Then, once everyone had made it through, Tang Tianyou used Tang Sect's anesthetic to cover their retreat, sealing off the pursuit behind them little by little.

"Chase them, don't let them escape, always stay in contact with reinforcents on the way, surround and intercept, do not let them escape; the Black Mantis, leave it to us." Muto wouldn't let them leave easily, how could it be allowed for Black Mantis to succeed every ti?
