Journey to the West: The Mountain Shaker

Chapter 53 Doucai 4

With a "whoosh," Feng Xiangguo, one of the people who had fought Cai Fei the most, who was watching the show from the giant rock, slipped and almost fell off the rock.

"This is fucking..."

Feng Xiangguo finally managed to stand up and wanted to curse a few words, but after uttering a single "Damn it," he suddenly lost interest and could only shake his head and smile bitterly.

The others who had been following Feng Xiangguo were speechless. These past few days, although they verbally expressed their "complete respect" for Cai Fei, they still ran betting odds for him every day.

But behind the scenes, everyone was actually not convinced. Feng Xiangguo even gave Cai Fei the nickname "Flea" to mock him for his tendency to hide when fighting.

There's no other reason than that, although the warriors of Aolai are cunning and treacherous, when facing enemies, they prefer to subdue people with force and hate people like Cai Fei who dodge and hide and steal.

However, the truth came out: he was an assassin!

As an assassin, isn't it only natural to dodge and weave and steal things?

There's nothing more to say from now on. An assassin is willing to face you head-on and always wins. What else can you say but "I'm completely convinced"?

Leaving aside the astonishment and speechlessness of Feng Xiangguo and others, Chen Xuanbiao was also greatly surprised.

He was halfway through his move and his attack was hard to stop, so he simply relied on his instincts to launch two consecutive grabs to the left and right. However, he was unlucky. The two grabs sent sand and stones flying, and although they were powerful, no one was seen.

With four attempts to grab him unsuccessful and the man vanishing, Chen Xuanbiao could no longer contain himself. He roared and his fifth grab transformed into a fist, slamming down with all his might. The entire stone platform trembled, sending rubble flying and forcing Cai Fei to reveal himself.

There was only one move left. The original plan was to at least force Cai Fei into a corner or make him jump again, and then easily finish him off with the next move. But in the current situation, it was like starting all over again, and the goal was to defeat him in one move.

Left with no other choice, Chen Xuanbiao took out his weapon. He reached into his Qiankun bag and immediately grabbed the long staff that had made him invincible on the arena. But as soon as he held it, he hesitated.

Even he wasn't entirely confident that he could take down a sixth-tier assassin with such agility in a single move.

Chen Xuanbiao glanced at the surrounding crowd, then at Feng Xiangguo, who was standing excitedly by the gambling table. He took a breath and put away his long stick.

Forget it, people from Aolai have no shame; "face" is nothing to them!

With over 6000 spirit stones tied up there, we can't let that bastard Feng Xiangguo win any money!

In the blink of an eye, a whip as thick as a child's arm, over three zhang long, with an unusual design and colorful silk threads, appeared on the stone platform like a snake.

The stone platform was only so big. With a long whip in hand, Chen Xuanbiao stood in the middle, and the tip of the whip could reach all four corners. No matter how Cai Fei tried to maneuver, he had nowhere to avoid it.

This is going to be a shortcut!

Sure enough, the next second, Feng Xiangguo led the mocking remark: "Have some shame! You can't win, so you resort to weapons?"

"Where's your manners! Your manners!" Li Fengping shouted in a shrill voice.

The students from the Earth, Black, and Yellow classes immediately started making a ruckus, cursing Chen Xuanbiao for being shameless and lacking manners.

"Since when have the people of Aolai ever cared about manners?"

"Does he dare to take Boss Chen's attack head-on?"

"If you've got the guts, then shut the hell up!"

The people from the top class were naturally not to be outdone. Damn it, they had over 6000 spirit stones tied up there. As long as they could win, that was enough. Why bother with the Aolai people's manners? What were they thinking?

Amidst the chaotic noise, Chen Xuanbiao twisted his neck, took a deep breath, and delivered his final move.

"Take this, Sky and Earth!"

As Chen Xuanbiao announced his moves, the tip of his whip moved like a snake, coiling towards Cai Fei.

Cai Fei took out a short stick to block, but the whip was obviously covered with adhesive runes. Under Chen Xuanbiao's control, it was like a living thing, and it followed the stick upwards when it touched it.

Cai Fei flicked his wrist and hurled the stick. The whip tip landed on the ground with the stick, but it instantly broke free of its entanglement. It paused on the ground and then pounced on him again.

Along with that, Chen Xuanbiao strode forward, his entire body lunging forward.

That's absolutely shameless!

The only way to break through was to sneak up and attack the whip-wielder directly—but Cai Fei dared not get close to Chen Xuanbiao!

Cai Fei was speechless. He could only raise his arms and leap up, using the move "Eagle Soars Through the Sky".

Chen Xuanbiao strode forward, his long whip lashing out like a dragon raising its head or a python leaping into the air, relentlessly pursuing and attacking.

Cai Fei used the same trick again. This "Eagle Strike" move was only halfway through when he suddenly stopped. When he rose to a height of three zhang, he suddenly flipped to the side and zigzagged upwards in the air like a snake.

But he still couldn't escape the whip's shadow. This time, Chen Xuanbiao was prepared. He leaped up and the long whip swept across the sky, chasing after him. The end of the whip was almost biting Cai Fei's feet.

A thousand-pound drop!

Cai Fei plummeted straight down, and Chen Xuanbiao no longer hesitated. His spiritual power surged forth, and his long whip taut like a spear, striking like thunder. Once it hit, it would bind him tightly.

Okay, the final variation of the cockroach dance!

With the spiritual energy of the relevant acupoints in his body fully activated, Cai Fei spread his arms like wings when he was halfway down, and his whole body suddenly changed direction during the rapid fall, sliding down at a 45-degree angle.

Unfortunately, while changing direction, the speed of the plunge also slowed down considerably.

Chen Xuanbiao's pupils contracted, and with a roar in mid-air, he twisted and sank with all his might, whipping Cai Fei in a wide arc.

Just as the whip was about to strike Cai Fei, and both had exhausted their moves, a sudden change occurred.

With a muffled "bang," a talisman exploded in mid-air, and Cai Fei suddenly swung up like a swing, drawing a strange arc as he flew into the air, then flipped and fell to the ground, landing right at the bottom corner of the stone platform on the other side!

Chen Xuanbiao's whip technique was outdated and unchangeable. He watched helplessly as his whip missed its mark, making only a "whoosh" sound in the air before tumbling down with the whip. The whip lay limp on the ground like a dead snake, no longer moving.

Three moves have been used up.

The area around Zaoxiuping was completely silent. There was no applause or cheers. Apart from the two people involved, everyone was stunned.

When Cai Fei slid down, he suddenly swung up. This move was beyond everyone's common sense. The people on the boulder were among the few who could see it most clearly. However, after Feng Xiangguo was stunned for a long time, the first thing he said to Wei Yiye was a question.

"How did you get up?" Feng Xiangguo asked.

"It seems to be swinging," Wei Yiye wasn't sure either. Looking at the empty space in mid-air, he even felt like he was joking. "Like a swing..."

Yes, it's like swinging on a swing; that's how everyone feels.

However, the area above the early morning repair platform was completely empty, with no support or ropes. How could someone who was falling rapidly rise into the air?

Feng Xiangguo touched his forehead, smiled wryly, and turned to the woman on his right, asking, "Do you know what kind of move this is?"

"I don't know," Yu Qianqian said, her gaze towards Cai Fei seemingly sparkling, but she remained calm. She tapped the betting table and said, "Let's split the money. It's one to three. I bet 800, so I'll net 2400. Count it."

"...Oh...oh, oh!"

Feng Xiangguo suddenly realized that he had also bet 500, and made a net profit of 1500!

And it was earned from his arch-rival Chen Xuanbiao, which was a double treat!

Feng Xiangguo happily counted the money, stuffed several large spirit notes into Yu Qianqian's hands, and added a few spirit stones, saying generously, "Return this talisman to Wei Yiye. You and Cai Fei owe a total of 6808 including interest, so I'll give you 7000—consider the extra as a tip for Brother Cai's hard work!"

Yu Qianqian accepted the gifts without hesitation. She held the spirit stones and spirit tickets in both hands, jumped off the boulder, and walked towards Cai Fei.

As she passed Chen Xuanbiao, she threw out a remark: "I like strong men, but I like handsome ones even more. You look like a gorilla, so don't bother me again."
