Chapter 322: Chapter 315: Chaos Demoness
Zhao Changhe rushed out of the window in a fluster, and what met his eyes was a dazzling sword light.
A white tiger-like phantom seemed to be leaping from behind the swiftly twisting and attacking Chichi, the Dharma Image flickering in and out of existence; while along the blade the chill was so pervasive that it seemed to shape itself into an Ice Dragon. Then, under the poisonous spider’s defense, it shattered into pieces, scattering all around.
The true convergence of dragon and tiger was indeed impressive. Solely from a visual standpoint, Chichi was the coolest among all of his beauties.
"Clash!" With the two swords crossing, the hunter became the hunted. The poisonous spider’s spirit faltered, its hasty defense stood no chance against Chichi’s long-prepared Innate Sword.
With just one strike, the poisonous spider’s qi and blood became unstable, even the poison mist around her became disordered as she leveraged the momentum to retreat rapidly.
Originally it was Xia Chichi who seemed strained just blocking one of her strikes and had to flee all the way. Yet, in just one night, the tide had turned, and it was she who fell back after blocking the sword.
Luckily, this was still a formidable fighter from the Human List, her ranking not low, else someone weaker might have been killed with a single sword strike. But the poisonous spider wasn’t that weak; the sword strike only caused her to lose the initiative and retreat in disarray, without even injuring her.
Of course, continuing like this would put her in grave danger. In a clash between experts, the balance hinges on a fine line, and once at a disadvantage, it becomes very hard to recover, especially since she can’t outrun Chichi in terms of qinggong!
"So the Four Symbols Sect thought it had some young master up its sleeve, but it turns out to be the Four Symbols Holy Daughter herself," said the poisonous spider with a solemn expression, fighting as she retreated. "Our families have no old grudges, and Holy Daughter, you’ve already fully achieved by killing my subordinate, why not let bygones be bygones?"
Xia Chichi closed in at great speed, laughing with some disapproval, "When you smeared your body with poison and secretly tried to harm me, I hadn’t offended you, had I? Luring me to seek out Heavenly Spirit, who knows what schemes you were hiding, I hadn’t offended you then either, had I? You just now even lay in ambush to stab me in the back, and there are no grudges?"
"Indeed," the poisonous spider actually admitted, "When in Kunlun, that’s just how things are done, everyone acts this way, can that really be considered a grudge? You won’t be able to defeat me in a short time, and this is my territory. If I whistled for my subordinates, they would gather, and you, Holy Daughter, wouldn’t gain any advantage. Why not just stop here?"
Xia Chichi amusingly replied, "That does make some sense."
In her heart, she did wonder. The poisonous spider’s words were not wrong. Although she was getting the upper hand, if the poisonous spider were to shout, and her subordinates surrounded her, it would be herself who’d have to run. Why wasn’t she calling them? Did she not want to spoil some plan?
The poisonous spider said, "In Kunlun, fists do the talking. Now that Holy Daughter’s fists are bigger than mine, I admit defeat. Heavenly Spirit and I have control over a Secret Realm, and I’m willing to share it with the Holy Daughter. Let’s extend an olive branch. What do you think, Holy Daughter?"
If it was up to Xia Chichi herself, she would think, share my ass, I’m not even here to look for a Secret Realm. But then she remembered Zhao Changhe; Zhao Changhe seemed to be looking for something...
While hesitating, she suddenly noticed behind the poisonous spider, Dragon Sparrow appeared silently, the Sword Light invisible, quiet as falling snow, closing in rapidly.
The poisonous spider seemed completely unaware of this silent and breathless attack!
Xia Chichi acted as though she knew nothing and continued to assault with her sword, saying, "Let’s hear it then, what’s in this Secret Realm? Did you get that gourd from there?"
"Indeed, the gourd is just one of the items from the periphery, the core inside has even more important..." the poisonous spider began, but mid-sentence, her intuition screamed an alarm, and she abruptly turned and ducked. A broadsword grazed her neck, leaving a deep gash.
The poisonous spider was pinching a needle as thin as cow hair in her left hand, initially planning to attack Xia Chichi the moment she let her guard down. Instead, she flung it backward, trying to force back the ambusher and make her escape.
However, Zhao Changhe didn’t dodge or evade, allowing his chest to take the hit.
At the "ting!" of a metallic sound, the needle was solidly blocked by a piece of golden foil, not causing the slightest hindrance, while the broadsword he dragged reached her neck again.
Over there, Xia Chichi’s swordplay, impeccable in timing, created a net of light that sealed off all the poisonous spider’s escape routes.
In the poisonous spider’s view, as the blade slashed down, it seemed like the very space itself froze in that moment, the wind and snow ceased, and the treetops stood still.
This world without me, hell is just so.
"Clang!" With all her might, the poisonous spider raised her sword to block at her neck. Amazingly, the sword didn’t break under the horrific force, but the tremendous strength sent her tumbling to the side.
Xia Chichi’s sword was already waiting there; the poisonous spider no longer had any room to dodge. The Bing Po swept through, deftly piercing her chest.
"Bastard and bitch..." the poisonous spider spewed out a spray of blood, "In the netherworld, I’ll be waiting for you!"
Xia Chichi had prepared for this, her left palm thrusting out, the White Tiger’s phantom roared, bursting forth like a violent Qi Wall which precisely cleared away the spray of blood.
The poisonous spider’s eyes dimmed, a green mist began to seep from around her body, slowly turning her into a withered old woman, obviously over fifty years old.
Xia Chichi subconsciously rubbed her hand on her trouser leg, cursing to herself, I’ve been touching her for several days... Does this count as fake flesh?
Zhao Changhe poked his head out and said, "Ranked 58th on the Human List? She’s way behind Hu Lie. Hu Lie is only at 51st, not much higher."
Xia Chichi glanced at him, "Hu Lie, who did you fight with?"
Zhao Changhe shut his mouth.
"Yue Hongling must be more formidable than me, right?" Xia Chichi grit her teeth, "Hu Lie is so much stronger, but you still won, didn’t you?"
"No, no," Zhao Changhe said with a forced smile, "I remember now, Hu Lie is a Secret Realm powerhouse after all. This one hasn’t broken through the Secret Realm at all; I have no idea how she got ranked so high..."
"Poisons rely on catching others unawares. Without knowing who she is, things like blood mist and green vapors silently take effect; it’s easy to fall victim, and she’s claimed the ranking by taking down higher-ranked opponents by surprise. Now that we know she’s the Poison Spider, the threat is halved," said Xia Chichi nonchalantly, "That’s why one’s own cultivation is the most important. Once you’re on guard, these sneaky tricks aren’t much use..."
As she spoke, her face suddenly turned pale.
Fucking poisoned again... And I don’t even know when it happened.
Zhao Changhe took a look inside himself and also discovered poison seeping in. That’s when he cast aside his previous contempt for the Poison Spider—how on earth had he been poisoned so undetectably?
Ranked 58th on the Human List, she indeed has her own tricks...
No worries, just a kiss will do...
Wait... Hu Lie didn’t report the Chaotic World Book because he wasn’t actually dead. So why didn’t the Poison Spider report her ranking as 58th?
As Zhao Changhe was about to kiss Xia Chichi, he suddenly came to a realization, swung her around in a tight revolution, and narrowly avoided another fine needle that whizzed by, merely grazing the clothes without piercing the skin.
At the same time, the seemingly dead Poison Spider suddenly sprang up, leaped and vanished without a trace.
The couple tried to pursue, but the poison in their bodies hindered them, and they could only watch helplessly as she disappeared into the alleys.
"See if you ever underestimate someone ranked 58th on the Human List again!" Xia Chichi scolded him with a smack.
Zhao Changhe simply offered a wry smile in response, the blame placed on me? You’re the one who stabbed her, and not delivering the final blow was a mistake on both our parts.
Ah well, when the wife throws a tantrum, it’s best just to give in.
But thinking back, she had been run through the heart, her body aged and curled up with no breath—she looked unquestionably dead. It was hard to suspect she was still alive; probably something related to her poison training. This stuff looks like it has some depth to it. Should I learn more about it when I get the chance?
While contemplating this, a short, sharp scream from the Poison Spider echoed faintly in the distance, as if she had fallen into someone else’s hands.
Zhao Changhe was somewhat unnerved and had no more mood for kissing. His hands moved swiftly, using the Rejuvenation Technique to cleanse Xia Chichi of the poison, "You’ve probably finished what you came for; it’s best to leave. This place is tricky; a bit of weakness can get one silently taken down. Who knows what’s happened to the Poison Spider..."
Xia Chichi shook her head, "We have no enemies here. Whoever dealt with the Poison Spider, it couldn’t be targeting us; it must be here for the Secret Realm. Don’t you want to see what happens next?"
Zhao Changhe asked, "So what’s your cunning plan now?"
"If Heavenly Spirit does not know the Poison Spider has fallen, he will continue his plan. We should return to the tavern and wait for our chance... If the Secret Realm has something you desire, so be it, but if not, why not give it to the person who killed the Poison Spider? If Heavenly Spirit thinks he can plot against Xia Chichi, how else can I quench my thirst for vengeance without stabbing him once!"
Zhao Changhe twitched the corner of his mouth, the real Demoness of a chaotic world.
But why do I find this so appealing?
Right, they don’t know anything about my identity in Wang Daozhong; the show is still on.
Zhao Changhe rushed back to the tavern, and as he entered the room, he heard Heavenly Spirit sighing, "Since Boss Qian does not trust us to not have stolen anything, why don’t you accompany me to check out the Secret Realm?"
Boss Qian was stunned, having brainstormed countless ways to find a fault in Heavenly Spirit and was gearing up for a brawl. Then you come with this?
Heavenly Spirit chuckled, "What do you say? The Secret Realm isn’t something I can monopolize. I had planned to collaborate with the Thief Sect to develop it... Boss Qian, are you interested?"
Boss Qian slammed the table, "Is this true?"
Heavenly Spirit smiled faintly, "A gentleman’s word is his bond."
