Of course, the prerequisite was that he could get close and that no one else would interfere. Otherwise, the success rate would be much lower.
"Clang."
The transition from tense standoff to actual combat began with Lin Yi's killing move attacking Xiaoyao first. The others followed imdiately after, surrounding Xiaoyao from all directions, even from above.
In their view, after this round, Xiaoyao would definitely be torn to pieces because he had nowhere to hide, unless he could burrow underground, which was obviously impossible.
However, under these circumstances, Xiaoyao, whom they thought was dood to die, actually didn't die.
Could Xiaoyao really burrow underground?
No, of course not. He didn't burrow underground. At this mont, if he had burrowed underground, the Mo family mbers would have found it sowhat understandable, at least easier to explain than the current situation. Though miraculous, it wouldn't be so unbelievable.
Sotis people are strange, preferring to believe in impossible things rather than the facts before their eyes, even though what's happening before them is also incredible but is actually occurring.
...
What exactly happened that made the Mo family mbers feel so incredulous? In fact, not only them, but anyone else who hadn't witnessed what happened before their eyes would absolutely not believe this fact.
Xiaoyao avoided the attacks, completely avoided them.
If only Lin Yi had been attacking, that might have been understandable, but this wasn't the case. Xiaoyao avoided all attacks from so many people.
If Xiaoyao had only avoided part of the attacks, that would also be understandable, but this also wasn't the case. Xiaoyao avoided all the attacks without even a scratch.
If Xiaoyao were a peerless expert, that would still be understandable, but obviously this wasn't the case either. Xiaoyao was only a General Level martial artist, yet he accomplished sothing that even Emperor Level martial artists would find difficult.
Under such circumstances, even an Emperor Level martial artist could only avoid part of the attacks and forcibly defend against the rest. With an Emperor Level martial artist's defensive capabilities, they could still withstand them, but they couldn't completely avoid everything like this.
This was truly unbelievable. No matter from which perspective, it was impossible. Any single impossibility would overturn this matter, yet Xiaoyao still accomplished it, and looking at his expression, it seed very easy.
Easily completing what everyone thought was impossible made even those who originally thought it was just coincidence abandon that idea. If it were just coincidence, how could he be so calm and relaxed?
Moreover, even if it were coincidence, could so many evasive movents all be coincidence? Anyone would understand that such coincidence was impossible.
Of course, what they called "easy" was relative, because Xiaoyao's evasive movents were perford almost in the gaps between attacks. Several tis he barely avoided them. They called it easy because Xiaoyao's face maintained a relaxed expression throughout.
This relaxed expression might not an much, but it at least let people know that everything was under Xiaoyao's control, which is why he had such a relaxed attitude.
If this were the case, what did it an? No one dared to continue thinking.
Xiaoyao's ability to master these gaps was even more incredible than his ability to avoid attacks, because it ant he saw through everyone's techniques and then calculated how to evade them in a short ti.
Whether seeing through techniques or calculating in a short ti, these were not simple matters. Especially seeing through techniques required understanding all the techniques, which ant knowing everyone's martial arts.
Well, even if most people here used Mo family martial arts, and Xiaoyao knowing Mo family martial arts wasn't surprising since he had been in the Mo family since shortly after birth, knowing Mo family martial arts was understandable.
However, among these people were quite a few recently recruited individuals who used different martial arts. This couldn't be accomplished by simply knowing one or two types of martial arts.
Could this just be coincidence, that he happened to know these people's techniques by chance?
Let's assu it was. Then they would continue attacking, using techniques he didn't know. This ti, even those who used Mo family martial arts changed their moves. Even Mo family mbers who primarily practiced Mo family martial arts knew one or two techniques from other schools.
So they began their second attack. This ti their power was much stronger, their martial arts much more sophisticated, and most importantly, their concentration much higher.
Therefore, this attack was far superior to the previous one in terms of intensity, skill level, and difficulty. This ti it was much harder to deal with. If Xiaoyao could still evade this ti, so of them even wanted to say—if that happens, I'll swallow my sword.
It seems I really have to swallow my sword...
Under such attacks, Xiaoyao still "easily" avoided them. Many tis he ca close to being hit, but just barely, he avoided them.
His movents also made people feel sowhat incredible. The contortions his body made and those evasive movents made people think—can I use profanity?
After several more rounds, Xiaoyao was still evading. No matter how incredible the movents, they all appeared before everyone. They were now numb to it. What the hell, is this still human?
Although they didn't want to admit it, Xiaoyao accomplished what everyone thought was impossible. The strength he displayed was only what a General Level martial artist possessed, but he could skillfully utilize this strength to its extre.
Besides this point, one other thing could be confird: he really did know all their martial arts and grasped the flaws in their techniques. Otherwise, even if he could utilize movent techniques to the extre, it would be very difficult to achieve what he was doing now.
Regarding this point, the Mo Family Head had also heard the Young Miss ntion it before, but at that ti he thought Xiaoyao only understood them. Now it seed this was more than just understanding.
"You... you... impossible, impossible..."
Lin Yi looked at Xiaoyao, shaking his head and muttering in disbelief. Of course, this was also sothing he didn't want to admit, but his heart had already acknowledged this fact.
"What's impossible? I said before that it's premature to say who will die now." Xiaoyao smiled, then suddenly rushed toward the door, catching people off guard.
If Xiaoyao hadn't spoken, they would have been on guard, but Xiaoyao's smiling words made it seem like the matter would slow down for a mont. As a result, Xiaoyao suddenly began breaking through.
This caught so people off guard. Combined with Xiaoyao's strange movent technique, he was just a few steps from the door. But he was still a few steps short. Those with quick reflexes had already surrounded Xiaoyao and blocked his path.
"Want to leave? Leave your life before you go. Your movent technique is good, but it's only for evasion. There will always be sothing you can't evade." A King Level expert appeared before Xiaoyao, then used that type of all-around offensive martial art that consud a lot of true qi. This type of martial art was rarely used normally because the consumption was too great, but the current situation seed perfectly suitable.
Against soone of the sa level, even if such an attack hit, it would be blocked by the opponent's true qi and wouldn't be very useful. But against soone of lower level, this would be very effective because lower-level opponents couldn't withstand such attacks.
In Xiaoyao's current situation, receiving such an attack would normally injure him. Now he could still dodge it, but if others did the sa thing, forming an unavoidable attack, then he would be in trouble.
Obviously, the opponents weren't fools either. They knew what to do. Everyone used this type of attack, and Xiaoyao could only retreat. Fortunately, no one was blocking his retreat now, because under such attacks, it was impossible to form an encirclent—that would only result in friendly fire.
Of course, a few people could also flank Xiaoyao from behind, but when they discovered that Xiaoyao could easily dodge, they simply gave up and used that thod to force Xiaoyao into a corner with no way to retreat.
Don't forget, in this spacious place, they would quickly reach the wall. It wouldn't take many moves to force Xiaoyao into a corner.
They also weren't afraid of damaging the walls here. This was a very special room, which was also why they chose to surround and kill Xiaoyao here. Originally it was just a casual backup plan that they didn't think would be needed, but now it proved that this contingency had occurred.
This room was built with special stone materials that were harder than refined steel. This type of stone wasn't very expensive, but processing it was troubleso precisely because of its hardness. Therefore, the processing fees far exceeded the material's actual price.
Generally, this type of stone was used in places requiring defense, and one needed the capital for it. The Mo family was also a great family and had this capital. Because they feared problems might arise, they specifically built this defensive place.
This room not only used this type of hard stone material, but the doors and windows were also made of hard materials, as well as the roof above. If needed, by activating chanisms, all entrances would be sealed—sothing the Mo family, being a forging family, could easily accomplish.
Once this room was sealed, except for those inside, outsiders couldn't open it. With this room's design, even Emperor Level martial artists would find it very difficult to damage—it was a place relatively safe from anyone below Emperor Level.
Therefore, these people's attacks wouldn't cause damage to this house, at least there wouldn't be any collapse. There would only be minor superficial damage.
Xiaoyao was very clear about this point. If he continued retreating, he would eventually be killed. However, fortunately he had plans early on. He retreated only because he wanted to retreat, not because he was being forced into this place.
