Chapter 2518: Chapter 2519: Immortals Fight
Lin Yi moved his joints. āI need to leave now. You should go tooāstaying here too long isnāt safe.ā
Zhang Long glanced at his watch.
āTeam Leader Lin, how long do you need to accomplish the task?ā
Lin Yi frowned in thought. āTwo hours.ā
āItās 1:38 a.m. now. If by 3:38 you havenāt succeeded, weāll come to support you. We work inside and outside togetherāif you find an opportunity, leave; if not, withdraw and weāll figure out another way.ā
āThat works.ā
Lin Yi didnāt say anything else and prepared to exit the car.
Sambalo drew a cross across his chest.
āMay God bless you. We still have plans to drink and feast together in the future.ā
Lin Yi chuckled slightly, opened the car door, and stepped out.
But as soon as he got out, he froze in place, unmoving.
Zhang Long noticed something off. āWhat happened?ā
āStay in the car. Neither of you moves.ā
With that, Lin Yi closed the car door himself.
Zhang Long and Sambalo, unsure of what was happening, cautiously scanned their surroundings.
Just then, they saw a red Civic Type-R approaching from not too far away. Other than that, their surroundings were entirely silent.
Instinctively, Zhang Long suspected Lin Yiās reaction had something to do with the car.
Lin Yi stood still, his eyes fixed firmly on the Type-R as it drew closer.
Unexpectedly, a faint smile appeared on his lips, as though the person in the car was a long-lost friend.
He had been waiting for this moment for many days.
Soon, the Type-R stopped about ten meters in front of Lin Yi.
A man in black stepped out, wearing a clown mask.
The two stood silently in the night wind, their gazes locked, the atmosphere eerily quiet.
The rhythm of their heartbeats seemed to meld with the whistling of the wind.
Zhang Long and Sambalo shuddered involuntarily.
They exchanged a glance.
A thought arose instinctivelyāthe man with the clown mask was undoubtedly a top-tier fighter!
Neither of them could possibly be a match for him with their abilities.
āHis posture doesnāt seem tense at all,ā Sambalo observed.
āIām puzzled, too. He shouldnāt be acting like this,ā Zhang Long replied.
āSo, what do we do now?ā
āHe told us to stay in the car. Letās wait and see how this plays out. Maybe itās not as bad as weāre imagining. Just donāt interfere with whatever heās doing.ā
āThatās the only choice for now.ā
Outside the car, Lin Yi faced the man in black, smiling faintly.
āIāve been waiting many days for you. You didnāt disappoint me.ā
Lin Yi stretched, his joints cracking audibly.
āOnly you are worthy of being my opponent. Iāve been anticipating this day for a long time.ā
The man in black remained silent but replied through his movements.
Both of them assumed fighting stances as the night wind blew between them.
In that moment, even the man in black seemed energized.
Inside the car, Zhang Long and Sambalo swallowed nervously.
The tension in the air heightened their adrenaline, their heartbeats quickening.
Suddenly!
The man in black made his move!
Taking a large stride forward, his hand curved claw-like toward Lin Yi. Lin Yi sidestepped swiftly, using his right foot as a pivot to rotate to the manās side, throwing a backward elbow strike!
What looked like a simple move was, in reality, akin to a heavy hammer smashing toward the man in black.
The man in black sensed something amiss and immediately raised his elbow to block, instinctively leaning back to redirect most of Lin Yiās force, avoiding substantial harm.
The two in the car felt their hearts tighten as they watched.
Only now did they understand that the strength Lin Yi had displayed on previous missions was merely the tip of the iceberg.
Just that one elbow strike from Lin Yiānone of them could have endured it!
The fight outside continued. After redirecting Lin Yiās power, the man in black delivered a surprise kick!
The move caught Lin Yi completely off-guard.
To Lin Yi, such an attack was entirely irrationalāone that defied logic. Even with the advantage of C-level fighting skills, he couldnāt predict the manās move.
BANG!
The kick landed squarely on Lin Yi, forcing him back several steps.
The man in black seized the moment to press his attack!
Having no other option, Lin Yi resorted to raising his arms to shield his head.
However, this opponent was unlike any Lin Yi had faced before. His moves couldnāt be anticipated by normal methods.
Every angle and rhythm of attack was alarmingly precise and cunning!
After a series of dozens of strikes, Lin Yi hadnāt found a single opening to counter!
Lin Yiās brow furrowed. He knew that if this continued, his opponent could wear him down completely.
Realizing this, Lin Yi abandoned his defensive stance, allowing the manās attacks to land on him!
Lin Yi only grunted softly under the impact.
His exceptional defensive power minimized any substantial damage, and he immediately launched his counterattack!
Lin Yiās hands darted out unnaturally, grabbing the man in blackās ankle.
The man in black hesitated briefly but quickly regained composure.
Twisting his body along Lin Yiās force, he managed to redirect part of Lin Yiās grip, easing the pressure.
But Lin Yi had anticipated this outcome. Using abrupt force, he yanked hard and followed up with a solid kick to the manās chest!
The man in blackās body flew backward, landing hard in the overgrown grass.
Lin Yi sprang into the air, lowering his knee, aiming for the manās chest!
But the man rolled aside swiftly, avoiding Lin Yiās knee strike.
The two fighters pulled apart momentarily, catching their breath.
Despite the back-and-forth exchange, neither could press their advantage significantly.
āThese two are unbelievableāsuch strength and skill,ā Sambalo marveled.
āEven B-level fighters might not stand a chance against them,ā Zhang Long added in awe.
āI agree. This is a true battle of masters,ā Zhang Long continued. āForget B-levelāeven someone at A-level might not be this impressive.ā
Quietly comparing himself to Lin Yi, Zhang Long realized that if Lin Yi had fought him with this level of intensity before, he wouldnāt have lasted ten moves.
Just as the two were marveling, Lin Yi and the man in black resumed their clash!
This time, the man in blackās attacks came even more ferociously.
Their speed was blindingāLin Yi lagged slightly, allowing the man in black to grab and tear away a piece of his collar!
But that gave Lin Yi the opening he needed!
Lin Yi stepped forward decisively, delivering a firm Mountain Lean strike!
BANG!
A muffled sound echoed as the man in black took the hit!
But Lin Yi realized he had fallen into a trapāthe man in black clamped down on his shoulder!
Though the grip wasnāt strong, the Mountain Lean had clearly inflicted real damage!
VROOM VROOM VROOMā
As the two continued their clash, the distant sound of an engine suddenly roared.
