Inch of Radiance Vol 2 Chapter 4.2

Book 2 Chapter 4.2 – a.s.sa.s.sin: Bullet

IET: The guns used by these a.s.sa.s.sins aren’t normal guns, they are modified. These modified guns have quite a few that actually use steel marbles as bullets. Li Yang using these steel marbles really is quite misleading, making others think that he is actually using a firearm. Use bullets? After all, when he used his arm strength, the shape allows the marble to more easily gain power, and the offensive power will also be greater.

One more point. The original book does indeed have the name Flying Dagger, and this is for sure. The current lead using marbles is still unavoidable, after all, Xiao Li Flying Dagger’s exclusive nature is too obvious. Its unique ident.i.ty can easily leak out the user’s ident.i.ty, how could he continue to cultivate with the Flying Dagger? Everyone will understand soon, I can only tell everyone, that the true Flying Dagger Dao does not absolutely need a Flying Dagger in one’s hands. A true Flying Dagger expert even without a dagger in hand can easily end their opponent’s life.

—

The days pa.s.sed one by one, and Li Yang spent his days inside his villa training the marbles. He had the same willpower when he was training the Xiao Li Flying Dagger on training the marbles…

Li Yang’s eyes did not even blink, and all of his attention was focused on the steel plate in front of him. Suddenly, his right hand moved, and the hand turned into an afterimage. Xiu! A m.u.f.fled sound tore through the air, and following that, a peng sound rang out, and the marble completely sank into the steel plate.

“Li Yang you brat, this is another failure. It time, it penetrated more than ten centimeters.” Overlord Xiang Yu took joy in Li Yang’s misfortune, and once again announced Li Yang’s failure.

When Li Yang heard Overlord Xiang Yu’s words, not only did he furrow his eyebrows, he also said inwardly, “There is some problems with its strength. It actually penetrated through the steel plate ten centimeters?” Li Yang’s goal was to make the steel marble penetrate the steel plate exactly 10 centimeters, not a single bit more and not a single bit less.

At the level where Li Yang is currently at, when shooting out the marble, the amount of strength used had to be at the perfect state. It could not be a bit more, and could not lack any either. Li Yang did not yet have success with the marbles, but when he shot out Flying Daggers, he could clearly feel the perfect feeling. In particular, it was a type of profound and intoxicating feeling, and when you felt that feeling, it meant that your Flying Dagger was perfect as well.

“I don’t believe that I cannot reach the level I have with Flying Daggers using marbles!” Li Yang’s air of arrogance rose, and he continuously trained. One marble after another shot into the steel plate, and Li Yang’s left and also began to move. Marbles shot towards the steel plate like sharp arrows.

Suddenly, Li Yang’s two hands were like a machine gun, and unceasingly shot out steel marbles. The speed was so fast that all that could be seen were two after images.

Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng! …

It was as if rocks were smas.h.i.+ng into mud, and the marbles easily sinked into that 20 centimeter steel plate. In addition, each and every marble sank roughly 10 centimeters. Suddenly, Li Yang’s eyes suddenly lit up, and his mind immediately entered the ‘Joyous Spirit Boundary’. The two marbles shot out from his hands immediately changed its trajectory, and while completely under Li Yang’s control, they shot towards the designated position.

Li Yang felt a bit pleased within his heart and said, “Not bad, the most important thing is that the three boundaries that can control the Flying Daggers didn’t change, and can be directly applied to the marbles!”

…

Evening, within Li Yang’s bedroom.

Li Yang was sitting cross-leggedly on his bed. No, if one observed carefully, one would find that there was a centimeter gap between his legs and the surface of the bed.

Threads of faint green streams of air continuously revolved within Li Yang’s body, and his entire body was absorbing this green stream. If an internal cultivator saw this, then they would definitely be shocked. After all, this green colored stream was terrifyingly condensed, and the typical heaven and earth spiritual essence that cultivators absorbed were extremely thin, and would not develop a color.

Xiu!

As if a whale was swallowing water, heaven and earth spiritual essence quickly rushed into Li Yang’s internal body, and was continuously absorbed by him. It was refined, and integrated into his dantian’s ‘nebula’. In the end, that worldly spiritual essence turned into threads of Xiantian qi, and allowed Li Yang’s power to increase another level.

A night pa.s.sed, and the first glimmer of light had already appeared in the sky. Li Yang got up and walked towards his balcony, and began to inhale the fresh early morning air.

“After experiencing this period of time, my ‘Devil Yang Law’ should have already completed its fourth layer right?” thought Li Yang within his heart. Previously at the research inst.i.tute, he already obtained the fourth layer after half a year. Afterwards, he cultivated for another half year and should already be reaching the Paragon stage. Now, Li Yang trained for another period of time, and with Li Yang’s frightening absorption speed of worldly spiritual essence, moreover with the a.s.sistance of Overlord Xiang Yu, Paragon stage shouldn’t be too far off.

“En. Youngster, your Xiantian qi should be roughly 9000 crystals now. Haha, keep earnestly cultivating brat, after breaking through the fifth layer, Overlord will give you a nice surprise!” Xiang Yu happily said.

Li Yang spent the night completely on internal cultivation, and during the day, other than training with his steel marbles, he would be in Taibai Restaurant drinking alcohol. His relations.h.i.+p with the boss of the restaurant Ge Pu gradually became much better.

“Mu Yi you came! Come, come, old brother will accompany you to drink a bit!” When Ge Pu saw Li Yang, he happily grabbed a few bottles and walked over. Li Yang glanced over at Tian Gang who was drinking in a corner alone, and felt that it was almost as if each time he came to Taibai Restaurant, Tian Gang would be there.

Li Yang did not pay much attention to it, and walked towards the second floor with Ge Pu before entering a private room.

“Old brother, I still haven’t asked you. Is it just you and your wife? You don’t have kids?” LI Yang smiled while asking.

“I have, of course I have. Me and my wife have a girl named Ge Xin. Xin Xin is currently at New York University studying, and comes back once a week. Last time when she came back, you weren’t able to meet her. Truly, hehe, Mu Yi ah, my girl is quite a beauty. You brat better not have any bad intentions!” When Ge Pu mentioned his own daughter, that deep paternal love could be felt. It seems like Ge Pu really is a bit excessively fond of his own daughter.

“You don’t know how formidable my daughter is. Do you know that this year, she received the first place scholars.h.i.+p?” Ge Pu was shoving off in front of Li Yang, and it was obvious that he was proud of her daughter.

…

At night, Li Yang returned to the villa. In the past when Li Yang was still in Shanghai, he lived alone. Now that he was once again living alone, he liked peace and quiet, and didn’t like noise.

“I’ve trained for such a long time, and the marbles’ strength have barely reached a satisfactory level. Let’s see if there are any good missions to accept!” Li Yang walked into his bedroom and looked at turned on his computer. He went on the designated a.s.sa.s.sin website, and immediately after opening up the page, a garbage adult webpage showed up. Li Yang did not mind, and logged in with his a.s.sa.s.sin account name and pa.s.sword. The webpage immediately changed, and changed into the same page as the one he saw with the a.s.sa.s.sin organization intermediary.

“Oh, the highest a.s.sa.s.sination mission is only fifty million, it really is quite disappointing.” Li Yang clearly did not care much for fifty million, but right when he was muttering, the page suddenly refreshed, and a mission with a red font appeared.

“One billion dollars! How is this possible? Is something wrong with my vision?” Li Yang blankly stared at the mission in front of his eyes. Typically, the highest mission would only at most reward around 100 million. Now that a billion dollar mission appeared, was the other party someone who specialized in manufacturing money?
