Tomb Raiders: She Comes from the Ancient Martial Arts World

Faced with the long, black man trying to stage an accident, Ling Yue took out five yuan from the twenty yuan he had left in his pocket and threw it to him.

My intention was to humiliate him.

However, this person's shamelessness exceeded Ling Yue's imagination; he happily accepted the five yuan thrown in his face.

Received!

Ling Yue looked at the man again in surprise.

The person in front of me has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs; it's the kind of physique that can only be achieved through long-term practice of external martial arts.

His thigh muscles are prominent, suggesting he is skilled in leg techniques. He also has long arms and wide hands, indicating he is a formidable fighter with grappling and strangulation skills.

The fingers are long with slightly thick knuckles, and there are calluses on the sides of the index fingers and the web between the thumb and index finger.

Ling Yue has recently had some contact with Su Nan and the others, and has learned what such cocoons represent.

It seems that the person in front of me usually uses short weapons such as daggers and short knives for close combat, and firearms such as guns for long-range combat.

Ling Yue, who had just learned about guns as concealed weapons and hadn't yet had the chance to try them out himself, felt a slight pang of envy.

Following the habits of martial artists, Ling Yue only had time to examine the other person's appearance after observing the marks on their body.

The first thing you notice is the black sunglasses that almost cover half of the other person's face, followed by their overly deep and sculpted features.

His jawline was strong and defined, with thin lips and a straight nose. Sunglasses covered his eyes, revealing only a pair of wild and untamed eyebrows.

Because of his own nature, Ling Yue was always very sensitive to the appearance of people of different races, and he could tell instantly that the other person did not have the traditional appearance of a Central Plains person.

They do resemble the Tartars from the Northern Yuan.

This instantly displeased Ling Yue.

Although he knew that all ethnic groups in the world were now one family, Ling Yue still believed that the Mongol Tartars in the north harbored an undiminished desire to conquer the Central Plains.

Although her own mother was from the Western Regions, Ling Yue's desire to conquer the Japanese invaders, attack the Mongols in the north, defeat the Jurchens in the east, and recover the Western Regions was just as genuine as that of most people in the Yao Dynasty.

As Ling Yue sized up Black Glasses, Black Glasses was naturally sizing her up as well.

Perhaps due to the difference between men and women, after observing the martial arts marks on Ling Yue's body, Hei Xiazi focused his attention on her face.

Or rather, it was her facial features, which were distinctly different from those of the Han Chinese, and her rare eyes.

Unlike the warm yellow skin of the Han Chinese, Ling Yue's skin has a distinctly cool white hue. This skin tone complements her exquisite features, making her look even more like a jade figure meticulously sculpted by the gods.

The emerald-gold pupil rings locked a pool of calm, dark brown, reminiscent of the enchanting scenery of lush, golden autumn vegetation surrounding a deep pool.

Black Bear inwardly marveled at Wu Xie; despite his constant stream of unattractive women, every single one he encountered was more beautiful than the last.

While his mind was wandering aimlessly, Black Bear grinned and approached her, saying, "Good evening, beautiful lady! Can't sleep in the middle of the night? No problem, handsome men are online to chat with you, and the price is super discounted!"

He even winked at Ling Yue and struck a flirtatious pose, flipping his hair with one hand and pulling at the hem of his tight vest with the other, pretending to lift it up to show off his abs.

Ling Yue, who already disliked his "Tartar" identity, frowned even more, turned around and was about to leave, his disdain for him clearly showing.

Is Hei Xiazi someone who gives up so easily?

Of course, he immediately went up and put his arm around her shoulder, saying, "Hey beautiful, don't go! It's super cheap! How about 500 yuan? Or 300? 200 is fine too! Seeing how pretty you are, 50 isn't out of the question either~"

Before his fingers even touched her clothes, Ling Yue sidestepped and dodged, then delivered a twisting, whipping kick aimed directly at Hei Xiazi's face.

Black Bear was prepared. He leaned back, grinning cheekily, and said, "Hey, I didn't kick it... Oh my god!"

Before he could finish his dirty trick, Ling Yue spun around and caught the scorpion's tail whip before kicking him.

If Hei Xiazi hadn't dodged with a roll, his handsome left cheek would have been marked with a size 37 shoe print.

Next, Ling Yue fully displayed her hatred for Hei Xiazi's face, raising her leg high and then turning her foot to kick him with her back knee, forcing Hei Xiazi's left leg to bend. As he bent down, she changed her other leg from a thrust to a kick, aiming for his face again.

After a dozen or so moves, Hei Xiazi was so angry he almost laughed.

"Hey beautiful, if you like my face, just say so! Why do you always try to kick my handsome face?" You always attack my face, and you only use your feet!

Is there something dirty on his face?

When his leg couldn't reach her, he practically offered his face to her palm, but she just wouldn't hit him!

While dodging this person's increasingly blatant and shameless behavior, Ling Yue gritted her teeth, determined to kick him until his face was covered in bruises, but she couldn't really do it because she guessed that he was an innocent person.

For a time, they were somewhat overwhelmed and unable to defend themselves effectively.

Having grasped Ling Yue's obsession, Hei Xiazi found it much easier to deal with her. All he had to do was dodge her every kick and press himself against her.

Hey! This guy is so disgusted he can just back down!

However, Hei Xiazi knew that the other party was not serious. Seeing that there was no way to get a result, when Ling Yue kicked him in the face again, he put his hands together to block it.

The force was mostly dissipated, but the person was still kicked and flipped backward, sliding on one knee in the sand for a while before regaining their balance.

Before the other party could press their advantage, Black Bear covered his face with his hands, rolled on the ground, and wailed, "Waaaaah, my face hurts so much from being kicked! My happy life for the rest of my life is ruined! Waaaaah, I'm so miserable! Even disabled people are bullied! Is there no justice in this world?!"

Knowing he was faking it, Ling Yue was annoyed, but didn't want to get entangled with this person anymore.

She had never seen such a shameless person!

This time, when Ling Yue left again, Hei Xiazi didn't chase after him. He lay on the ground with his chin resting on his folded hands, watching Ling Yue's departing figure, and put away the frivolous expression on his face.

After thinking for a while, Hei Xiazi finally got up, patted the sand off his body, rubbed his face, and muttered, "Where did this fairy come from? She kicked people way too hard. Third Master is still so wicked, always attracting all sorts of monsters and demons!"

Anyway, he was allowed to test the other party's skills, and he has already done so.

The blind man seemed to think he couldn't win, he couldn't win at all, and that he could only save face by acting shamelessly, behaving like a scoundrel, and selling his male charm.

However, this person doesn't look like a member of the Wang family.

Although the Wang family members are skilled, they could not possibly be "skilled" to this extent.

Even without going all out, I was able to fight him to a standstill.

If this person were a member of the Wang family, and had put his skills into the Wang family's shady methods, the Wang family would have long been so arrogant as to crush the Nine Gates.

It's not like they would hide for so many years just because of a mute Zhang, only daring to show their faces and cause trouble after Zhang himself ended up in jail.

When Ling Yue returned to camp, the people who went down to find the Medicine King came back, but out of the three who went down, only two returned.

One of them was seriously injured; the bone in his forearm pierced through the skin and flesh.

Beiluo, who returned with the wounded, looked somewhat dazed and said that this place was a place that would eat people.

Upon hearing this, Ling Yue immediately thought of those trap walls that appeared and disappeared without a sound.

Because of Ling Yue's words, Boss Ma is now very uneasy about Su Nan's group of mercenaries.

Whether they were missing or injured, his attitude was clear: even if they would die if they went down, they had to continue searching for things in the underground palace for him!

Because of Su Nan's exposure, the underground palace map that Wu Xie had just drawn was also discovered by Boss Ma.

Upon seeing that the gem he was looking for was about to be in his hands, Boss Ma became excited and immediately decided: "Tomorrow I will go down myself, and not only me, but all of you will go down!"

Finally, Mr. Ma's gaze paused briefly for a few seconds as it swept over Ling Yue.

Ling Yue returned a polite nod.

Mr. Ma breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had reached a preliminary agreement with her, and felt that the situation was very promising.

The hired men might have other motives? No problem, send them all down to clear the way for him to find the items! The more the merrier! He still has Ling Yue as a backup.

However, Mr. Ma was domineering, and the crew members were not convinced. Director Wang, with a not-so-pleasant expression, forced a smile and argued, "Mr. Ma, you see, we are just a group of artists, so going down there won't do us any good, right?"

People could die if they go down there!

During the day, when we were on the seesaw, Director Wang didn't know if he would have been able to get up there if it weren't for Guan Gen and the others.

It's impossible to go any further!

Wu Xie also seemed to disagree with this.

Upon seeing this, Boss Ma called out to Su Nan, and Su Nan and her men immediately drew their knives.

Just as Su Nan was about to put a knife to Li Cu's neck, Ling Yue instinctively pulled out a bamboo cane and deflected it with a single blow.

Su Nan was caught off guard and was thrown back two steps.

After realizing what was happening, Su Nan glanced at Ling Yue, who was already protecting Li Cu behind him, and a cold smile appeared on his lips. He then turned around and put Wang Meng, who had just been watching the show, to the edge of a knife.

Wang Meng, who was hiding next to the boss and quietly watching the drama unfold, blinked and was a little confused. Why was he involved?

Li Cu realized that Ling Yue was protecting her very well, and while feeling secretly pleased, she gave Su Nan a smug smile: "Come and hit me if you dare!"

Before Su Nan could speak, Ling Yue, who had just been provoked by the shameless scoundrel's filthy arrogance, smacked him on the forehead with a bamboo stick: "Quiet!"

With a bump on her forehead from being hit, Li Cu covered her forehead and looked aggrieved: "Oh."

Su Nan and Wu Xie were both amused.

Wang Meng, with a knife still around her neck, wanted to laugh, but considering her current situation, her lips drooped before she could even curl up, and she gave her boss a resentful look.

The gist of it is: Look at Ling Yue, and then look at you. Why don't you protect your little follower?

Wu Xie rolled her eyes at him: You always compare me to others, why don't you compare yourself to Ling Yue!

Wang Meng shrank back and obediently became a hostage.
