Chapter 386: Chapter 0386: Can Only Use Poison Now

"My back hurts, I can’t get up, can you help me?"

An old man with white hair looked pitifully at Tang Ming.

"This might not be a good idea, there are too many scammers these days, I’m afraid helping you could be risky."

Tang Ming shook his head in dilemma, quickly took out his phone, "Let me record this, to prevent you from blackmailing me."

"I, I’m not a bad person, just come and help me out."

The old man argued in pain.

"It’ll be over soon, it’ll be over soon." Tang Ming held up his phone, asking seriously:

"Old man, you fell on your own, you weren’t hit by me, right?"

Seeing Tang Ming’s actions, the old man was furious inside, but he had to endure and nodded repeatedly:

"It was me who fell down. If you help me up, I definitely won’t... ah!"

Before the old man finished speaking, Tang Ming kicked him in the face and then quickly jumped away, taunting:

"Does your Poison Widow’s Assassin have no skill at all? Even a Three-star Martial Master stoops to such tricks, isn’t that shameful?"

The old man, with a shoe print on his face, suddenly leaped up from the ground, rubbing his face while roaring angrily:

"You little brat, dare to trick me, I’ll definitely flay you alive today."

Yaksha was very angry at this moment. Being from the Assassin Organization, he didn’t flaunt himself like other martial masters. He would always disguise himself during operations, seeking to kill with one strike without showing off.

This time, when Yaksha received the task to assassinate Tang Ming, he waited in disguise at the Liu Family’s doorway, just like before. The moment Tang Ming got out of the car, he would unleash a thunderous strike, but what he hadn’t expected was for Tang Ming to get off early. He had to quickly follow and then pretended to fall in an attempt to make the other party let down their guard, only to be kicked by Tang Ming instead.

"You want to kill me? I’m afraid you lack the ability." Tang Ming grinned with a sneer and turned to run.

This time, Tang Ming hadn’t been able to lay down poison in the surroundings beforehand, so he had to find a secluded place to fight, otherwise while it was still daylight and causing a spectacle for onlookers, it would become troublesome.

"Kid, don’t run, today I will slaughter you even if it exposes my identity!"

Yaksha chased after Tang Ming with a ferocious momentum, shouting through gritted teeth.

In this way, one chasing and one fleeing, the two arrived at the foot of a hill behind the residential area. Since his opponent was a Three-star Martial Master, Tang Ming was soon caught up with as soon as they reached the foot of the hill.

"You little brat, keep running, let’s see if you can escape from the palm of my hand?"

After stabilizing his stance, Yaksha looked coldly at Tang Ming.

"A Three-star Martial Master is indeed powerful, the Yaksha of Poison Widow also lives up to his reputation."

Tang Ming stopped, his fighting spirit surging as he stared at Yaksha. A Three-star Martial Master, this was currently the strongest enemy he had faced.

"You actually know me?"

Yaksha was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Tang Ming knew of his existence.

"Not only do I know you, but I also know that you are the only Three-star Martial Master in the Poison Widow, and also the deputy group leader of the Poison Widow Killer Group, named Yaksha. Am I right?"

Tang Ming looked slyly at Yaksha, nonchalantly saying, "Actually, I’ve long known you were coming to kill me, but I just wanted to meet you, this Three-star Martial Master, so I didn’t expose you sooner."

Hearing these words, Yaksha instinctively began to scan his surroundings, suspecting that the other party dared to face him because they might have planted people in ambush after having grasped so much information.

"Could it be someone in the organization has leaked information? Otherwise, he couldn’t possibly know so much."

Yaksha started to harbor suspicions, and although he was powerful, his many years as an assassin had kept him highly vigilant and skeptical, which was the reason he had survived until now.

Little did he know that Tang Ming’s words were deliberately spoken for Yaksha to hear. Without prior preparation against a Three-star Martial Master, he had no assurance of victory, so he resorted to a strategy that attacked the mind.

"How exactly do you know all these details? And you, a mere One-star Martial Master, knowing that I was coming to kill you, did not hide in advance; what game are you really playing?"

As expected, Yaksha felt his skin crawl, and he asked in a heavy tone.

"This is a question you should ask yourselves. Sending people after my life time and again, do you really think Tang Ming is so easy to bully?"

Tang Ming narrowed his eyes, his killing intent ice-cold as he spoke, "Today, I’ll teach you a lesson, letting you know that not everyone can be provoked so easily."

"You..."

Yaksha wanted to lose his temper but forced himself to cool down, saying with a sneer,

"A One-star Martial Master like you hardly has any right to talk like that in front of me. Whatever trick you’re playing, in the face of absolute power, it’s all for naught."

"Why don’t you give it a try?"

Tang Ming stood with his hands behind his back, provocatively staring at Yaksha, but in fact, he had steadied his stance and secretly began to circulate his Poison Skill, preparing the surroundings to his advantage.

"What on earth is this kid up to?" Yaksha started to wonder, and then thought determinedly,

"I’ll test the waters first; if the strike misses, I’ll escape a thousand miles."

"Since you wish to try, then I shall oblige," Yaksha roared, channeling his Gang Qi as he charged at Tang Ming.

"So fast!"

Tang Ming’s face changed slightly as he hurriedly gathered Gang Qi to dodge.

"Haha, so it turns out you’re not a One-star Martial Master, but a Two-star."

As soon as Tang Ming made a move, Yaksha burst into laughter, "Although the intelligence was somewhat inaccurate, I don’t consider a Two-star Martial Artist worth noticing either."

After sensing Tang Ming’s cultivation level, Yaksha didn’t hurry to flee anymore. He went on the offensive against Tang Ming, convinced that with the strength of a Three-star Martial Master, he could easily dispose of Tang Ming.

Being at a level below his opponent, Tang Ming did not dare to clash head-on. He had initially planned to use his movement technique and combat experience against Yaksha, as he had done in his duel with Ma Tong, but after exchanging blows, he realized Yaksha’s combat experience was incredibly rich and his attacks lethal; a momentary lapse would be fatal.

"I’ve been careless!"

As Tang Ming nervously dodged the attacks, he was introspectively thinking,

"Hearing the opponent was a Three-star Martial Master, I thought he was like Ma Tong and the others, but I didn’t expect this guy’s combat experience to be so vast. It must be related to his being an assassin."

Tang Ming’s guess was correct; as an assassin, Yaksha had grown through countless assassinations, and in terms of killing experience, Tang Ming was slightly inferior, which put him in a very challenging situation.

"It seems I have no choice but to go against the old master’s wishes and resort to poison!"

Once he made up his mind, Tang Ming’s speed slowed down. From being constantly on the defensive, he shifted to engaging in minor skirmishes with Yaksha.

Fortunately, Tang Ming always avoided the brunt and managed not to be directly overwhelmed by his opponent’s formidable strength. Even so, the encounters still left Tang Ming with his energies roiling inside him.
