Stuck in a Chinese novel

Chapter 198: Choice (2) (Bonus: P.S)

While both of Wei Jun's opponents expected him to stop his charge and attempt to save Xia Lu, Wei Jun didn't. When Wei Jun pushed further, the Qi user was pushed back easily by Wei Jun's punch and Wei Jun delivered a spinning kick with full force and fifteen points of Qi discharge.

As the man was struck, he shot like a bullet and slammed into the already fallen villa of the Lu family. As for Wei Jun, he turned his attention to Bernard. Just in time as well because a fireball was heading his way.

Seeing that attacking Xia Lu would be useless, he targeted Wei Jun while he was busy dealing with the Qi user.

Wei Jun effortlessly dodged the fireball but he underestimated the spell as it was locked onto him and just as Wei Jun dodged it, the fireball changed direction and followed him.

Once again, Wei Jun was able to dodge with his powerful stats and raised his hand to the left to block the kick that was heading his way.

The time frame was enough for the Qi user to collect himself. Although he was injured, he wasn't injured to the point of being out of commission. While Wei Jun was distracted by the fireball, the Qi user had taken advantage of that time and attacked him from his blind spot.

Although Wei Jun managed to block that with his experience, he wasn't able to do anything about the fireball that was once again heading his way.

[Don't touch it with yang Qi]

Wei Jun pushed the Qi user and once again jumped away from the fireball. The system had warned him that Qi didn't work against mana but now it specifically said not to touch it yang Qi.

It meant another type of Qi was useful against mana and the only other type Wei Jun possessed was the death Qi.

But he couldn't use it here lest he risk leaving traces that lead back to him. There was no way that Shao Chen's team would be able to keep this incident that much quiet. Half an hour at most and the authorities would figure out something was wrong.

That wasn't enough time for Wei Jun's traces to vanish.

So he had no choice but to run until the mana in the fireball ran out.

The unfortunate part was that it was enough time for Bernard to cast another fireball that he could control and attack Wei Jun with.

Wei Jun was already having a hard time with the cultivator and one fireball, dodging one and attacking one, with another fireball in the fold, it was getting harder for Wei Jun to attack the cultivator while he could now get in some attacks of his own.

Wei Jun was worried that Bernard might put in more but he was relieved when he heard the system…

[He's not at a level where he can control that many at once]

[Even controlling two is his limit]

[I doubt he would be able to cast another spell until these two ran out]

Wei Jun was relieved but not to the point that he would be sipping tea. It was still a difficult battle and it wasn't getting any better for Wei Jun given the current circumstances.

Wei Jun jumped once again to dodge the two fireballs that were now flanking him from both sides while the Qi user was coming from the front and as much as Wei Jun wanted, he couldn't find a hole in that formation to exploit.

[Qi construct]

Hundred points of QP were used just like that and a sharp lance-like object came into creation.

"What the…" The Qi user was flabbergasted when he saw something he hadn't even seen Qi masters or grandmasters do. Solidify Qi to their desire.

Wei Jun pointed the lance at Bernard and shot it at an incredible speed while he took out the Adamantium gun and shot the Qi user.

The bullet didn't work on such a level of cultivator but it did leave a crack in his Qi barrier which was at least something but before Wei Jun could shoot more at that exact point, the barrier fixed itself using the Qi user's Qi.

As for Bernard, he had to let go of his control over the two fireballs and hurriedly cast a mana shield to protect himself from the lance.

With his fireballs destroyed, there was no one helping the Qi user which was exactly what Wei Jun needed. He shot himself at the Qi user, infused fifteen points of Qi into his fist, and without hesitation, struck him in the middle of his chest.

The Qi user shot back and slammed once again into the villa but this time, Wei Jun wasn't staying back to deal with the mage. He pursued the Qi user and arrived just in time before the man stood up.

Alas, that was enough time for Bernard to recover and he cast another mana shield, only this time, around the Qi user.

As soon as Wei Jun's kick struck the mana shield, his Qi barrier was penetrated and the mana in the shield went into his system through his foot.

Wei Jun hurriedly jumped back because he noticed that the Qi barrier around his leg was behaving strangely. As if it was being distorted.

[The mana on the shield may not have been enough to stop your heart but it was enough to impede your circulation]

[It will affect your skills, host]

And just as the system said, Wei Jun could not only feel the barrier distortion in that region, he could also feel that the amount of strength he could put in his left leg was less than the amount of strength he could put in his right leg.

[Fireball!]

Another annoying fireball headed his way while Wei Jun got used to the feeling of his circulation disruption and the bad news was that it was spreading to his leg, not just his foot.

[You need to get rid of the mana or it will soon disrupt your entire circulation and cancel all the skills]

As much as Wei Jun wanted to get rid of the mana in his body, there was a certain problem he still had to figure out. He couldn't remove his Qi traces and in doing so, make it so that he wasn't found by anyone who could be bad news for him.

Although Yan Rong was in the Cultivator's Special Forces, he wasn't sure that she had enough influence to make this all go away.

After all, no one would tolerate an Evil cultivator, and even if she was the head of the Cultivator's Special Forces, she wouldn't be able to make this go away.

Wei Jun had no choice but to fight with a handicap. Wei Jun jumped back from the cultivator even though it was a golden chance to hurt him gravely but another fireball was heading his way and he didn't want to increase the setup of the handicap any further.

Wei Jun dodged the pursuit of the fireball while trying to think of an effective method of dealing with the mage and that was impossible unless the cultivator, who was now getting up and getting ready to deal with Wei Jun, was out of the equation.

He wasn't so sure that the trick with the [Qi construct] would work again because they had already seen it.

Unless he could create a situation in which even if they could see it coming, they could only defend, not dodge.

'Is there any way to disrupt mana, even for a second?'

[Not unless you're a mage]

[Or you have any element of darkness]

That wasn't good news for Wei Jun because there was no way he could disrupt mana using his Death Qi because that would go against every worry he already had.

[But isn't there a way to disrupt the Qi?]

Wei Jun's imaginary lightbulb turned on. It was true that he couldn't do anything about the mana but he could do something about the Qi.

[Qi disruptor]

[Tier: A]

[Type: Consumable]

[Effect: Disrupts all kinds of Qis in a certain area]

[Number of usage 3\\3]

[Cost: 80,000]

It was an expensive item but Wei Jun had enough money and he could always make more given that he managed to get out of there alive first.

As soon as a cube appeared in his hands, Wei Jun inserted his own Qi into the cube to turn it on.

Just as the cube was activated, all the Qi in the area was disrupted.

[Skill 'Qi armament' has been forcefully ended]

[Skill 'Qi empowerment' has been forcefully ended]

Including his own.

But, he had an edge against the incoming cultivator who was mid-stride when all his skills ended.

As he looked down, confused, Wei Jun sped up to the limit and arrived in front of the cultivator.

Before he could even react to that speed with his human limits, Wei Jun plunged his fist through his chest, exiting it from the other end along with the Qi user's heart.

[You have defeated an opponent with Qi]

[Stats have been obtained]

[…]

[.]

"NOOO!!" Bernard yelled when he saw his companion die in the blink of an eye before he could do anything.

Wei Jun smirked, he pulled his hand out and let the lifeless body fall on the ground before he turned to Bernard and said, "You should have taken my offer."
