The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"Weren't you all shouting so enthusiastically just now? Why are you quiet now?"

The man spoke in a low voice, his eyes filled with mockery and provocation.

Yang Ke angrily said, "Yuan Lie, I could smash up your place back then, and I can teach you a lesson today! Since you dared to come here today, I'll make sure you don't leave alive."

Yang Ke gave a wink to the bodyguards beside him, and immediately a security team was formed to surround Yuan Lie.

Yuan Lie glanced at the special forces member leading the group and laughed, "What, haven't you had enough of your defeated opponent? Are you back again now? Have you forgotten how you were injured last time?"

The team member shouted, "Stop with the sweet talk! I was careless last time and fell for your trick. Today, let's see how you escape."

"Hahaha, you really think you can defeat me just because you have more people? You're too naive."

As he spoke the last word, Yuan Lie suddenly took a deep breath, and then his whole demeanor seemed to change.

A dim light shone through his clothes.

"This is true qi!"

Long Qing spotted it almost immediately, but thankfully, Yuan Lie's true energy was relatively weak, probably about the same as his own.

However, it was clear that Yuan Lie had not cultivated true qi for long, while I had many years of combat experience. In comparison, Yuan Lie was still a step behind me.

As for Fang Yun, he had no intention of making a move. He could tell at a glance Yuan Lie's skill level. He could easily defeat special forces soldiers, but he was still far inferior to him.

"Fine, since you're courting death, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Yuan Lie struck a pose, which wasn't very complicated; he simply extended his fist slightly.

Feeling slighted, those people didn't care about anything else and rushed towards Yuan Lie.

If they can capture Yuan Lie, they can quickly go and collect their ten-year-old treasure trove. Why bother fighting him to the death here?

But before these people could even utter a harsh word, they found their bodies being thrown uncontrollably in all directions.

When Yuan Lie's fist landed on him, it felt like a boulder hitting a balloon; he lost consciousness and didn't even feel the impact of falling from the sky and crashing to the ground.

What they didn't notice was that bright red blood was slowly flowing from the corners of their mouths, and the people around them were looking at them in horror.

On the other side, Yang Ke was also speechless, stammering and unsure of what to do.

Chapter 587 Yuan Lie

"you you……"

Yang Ke's mind went blank for a moment. He never expected that the security force he had carefully prepared would be as fragile as paper.

Moreover, judging from this, Yuan Lie hadn't used his full strength at all. If it had really been like today, those security personnel would have been dead long ago.

"So, Mr. Yang, how was my move?"

Yuan Lie took a step forward, his eyes filled with cruelty.

The Yang family members on this side were all jolted and kept trying to retreat.

Just moments ago they were singing loudly, preparing to go for a celebratory drink, but now they feel a sudden discomfort in their stomach and want to leave this place as soon as possible.

However, Yang Ke was, after all, a big boss with so many businesses and had been in this business for so many years. After a moment, he managed to suppress his shock and his face returned to normal.

"Hmph, Yuan Lie, don't think you're the only one here who knows these skills. Let me tell you the truth, no matter what, it's a huge mistake for you to come here today."

As he spoke, Yang Ke walked over to Long Qing's side, cupped his hands in greeting, and said, "Master Long, today it's all up to you! If you can teach him a lesson, I, Yang, will definitely prepare a celebratory feast for you!"

Long Qing nodded, then slowly stood up from his seat.

Although Yuan Lie's performance surprised him somewhat, that was all. Defeating a few bodyguards was nothing to him.

"Your name is Yuan Lie, right? I wonder where you learned your skills."

Long Qing's post was like an elder instructing a younger person.

Yuan Lie laughed and said, "Old man, you are not qualified to know about my lineage. I'm afraid that if I told you, you would be scared to death before we even started fighting."

Yuan Lie's words immediately infuriated Long Qing. In Guangling, Yuan Lie was the first person to dare to speak to him like that.

"Very well, Yuan Lie, is that right? Today I'll show you what real martial power is. Someone like you, even if you have some talent and can comprehend the true path of power, will not go far in the end."

"What happens to me in the future is none of your business, you old codger!"

Before Long Qing could say anything, Yuan Lie charged straight at him. Long Qing's pupils contracted, and he hurriedly gathered his energy and assumed a Tai Chi posture.

This surprised everyone. Long Qing's move seemed to contain some profound truth, as a stream of energy swirled around him.

Fang Yun stood at a distance, gently shaking his head. Long Qing's move looked like some kind of Tai Chi, but it was just a fancy move; he hadn't grasped the essence.

However, this skill can also be used to its advantage, namely, to use the opponent's force against them.

However, if the two sides in a conflict are too far apart in terms of strength, this strategy of using the opponent's strength against them will not be feasible.

Fang Yun was waiting to see a good show, but when Yuan Lie's fist hit Long Qing's wrist, Long Qing spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back several steps.

Those who had just been looking at Long Qing with expectant eyes all froze in shock.

"This... this is how we lost?"

A question arose in everyone's mind, and Yang Ke was filled with disbelief and his mind was in turmoil.

Wasn't it said that Long Qing was firmly in control of the opponent? How could he have been defeated so quickly?

"Good lad, you've got some strength in your hands!"

Long Qing wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, circulated his energy again, and muttered, "I accidentally fell for your trick just now. I'll let you have a chance and see what you can do about it."

· ·········Request flowers· ···

However, this time, before Long Qing could even finish speaking, Yuan Lie's fist had already landed.

However, this time Yuan Lie clearly wanted to end the battle as soon as possible, and directly punched Long Qing in the chest, shoulders and back ribs several times. Long Qing felt as if several bombs had been detonated on his body, and a mouthful of blood gushed out.

"Old scoundrel, I think you've been living in this comfortable bed for too long. You don't even have the slightest power to fight back. I don't know where you got the audacity to sit here."

........ ........ 0

Long Qing was already ashamed to be reprimanded in front of so many people. He forgot about his physical condition and focused all his strength into his palms, wanting to unleash his signature move, the Fire Pattern Palm.

However, Yuan Lie moved like a fish swimming, and Long Qing chased after him with all his might, striking him, but in the end he only managed to touch a corner of Yuan Lie's clothes.

Yuan Lie shook his head and said, "Old man, I'm too lazy to play with you anymore. I'll just send you to hell."

After saying that, Yuan Lie suddenly leaped high into the air, then stretched out his right leg and plummeted down. His feet seemed to contain immense power, even stirring up the surrounding wind.

Long Qing tried to dodge, but he discovered that Yuan Lie could subtly adjust his direction and angle through his mouth. Long Qing tried to dodge several times, but was locked onto by the other party.

This made Long Qing feel as if he had swallowed a bitter pill, unable to express his suffering.

"Haha, you old scoundrel, remember to tell your disciple to offer incense to you at this time next year!"

Chapter 588 Unstoppable

Long Qing was already feeling discouraged, but Yuan Lie was really going too far. Hearing his words reignited Long Qing's anger.

"Hmph, kid, even if you have some skills, if I really get serious, I guarantee you won't be able to handle it!"

At that moment, Long Qing was also holding his breath, and then he channeled his energy and charged forward.

Yuan Lie merely sneered upon seeing this.

"An ignorant and arrogant old fool."

This time, Yuan Lie was just toying with the mouse, but he used all his last reserves of strength, and the two fought back and forth.

In just a short while, the two had already exchanged more than a dozen blows, with at least eight or nine clashes of fists and feet.

The onlookers could only see two dark figures clashing together, and because the fighting was so intense, each clash between the two figures created a howling wind.

As for the Yang family manor, which was originally elegantly decorated, it was now a mess. The antique vases and precious flowers and trees that were used as decorations in the garden were now broken or shattered, and every punch and kick felt like a blow to Yang Ke's heart.

"What if even Master Long can't defeat him?"

Yang Ke complained incessantly. In the past, if he couldn't win a fight, he would just find more people. But today, he realized that sometimes numbers are completely useless.

Once you cultivate that so-called true power to a certain level, what's the big deal about the number of people?

"No matter what, I must find a real martial arts practitioner to support me in the future," Yang Ke murmured to himself.

At this moment, a loud "bang" was heard, and the two dark figures finally separated. One of them stood firmly in place, while the other staggered back several steps and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Everyone looked over anxiously and saw that Long Qing's face was pale, as if he had been seriously ill.

Long Qing, however, still wore a smile, as if he had just gone for a run.

"This……"

Everyone was in a state of panic, their eyes darting around the courtyard as they pondered how to escape.

At this moment, Long Qing said with a wry smile, "Your Excellency is probably already at the level of a Grand Martial Master. I only just began to grasp the basics of a Grand Martial Master a few years ago, so it's normal that I'm not as good as you."

Long Qing's words immediately caused an uproar.

Even a master like Long Qing admitted that he was far inferior to his opponent, so wouldn't all of them be doomed to die, waiting to be toyed with by Yuan Lie?

As for Yang Ke, he was so frightened that he was trembling all over.

After dealing with Long Qing, it will be my turn next.

He didn't even have Long Qing's skills, so he probably wouldn't be able to escape even if he wanted to.

“Master Long, I actually knew your name back when I was in Guangling. As a sign of respect for my senior, I will let you go today,” Yuan Lie said.
