Chapter 339 - Chapter 339 Chapter 335 Taotie Oh I Am Immoral

Chapter 339: Chapter 335 Taotie Oh, I Am Immoral Chapter 339: Chapter 335 Taotie Oh, I Am Immoral “`

So, remember this, those who like to put on airs and stand on the moral high ground to criticize others must bear in mind, I am devoid of morality, so he can’t hold me hostage.

The Store Manager’s rhetoric was quite masterful.

If Fang Xiaocao were to deal with him, she would certainly be at a disadvantage.

But then he encountered the amoral Taotie.

The one who ended up at a disadvantage was the Store Manager.

A few sharp retorts from Taotie, and the Store Manager was nearly taken aback, gasping for breath.

If it weren’t for his strong constitution, he might have had a heart attack.

“Old fool, stop babbling to me. I’m giving you two options, either kneel and sing ‘Conquest’ or I’ll send you on your way!”

Taotie had no intention of letting the Store Manager off so easily and seemed hell-bent on infuriating him to the point of a heart attack.

The Store Manager knew that today he had met the Mouth-strong King–there was no out-talking him.

He stopped dallying about.

His hand swiped at his waist!

Ka-ching—-

He actually drew out a Soft Sword.

Those skilled with, or possessing, a Soft Sword are experts.

An ordinary person using this thing wouldn’t just fail at fighting with it, but also be grateful not to hurt themselves.

Seeing that the Store Manager had voluntarily revealed his weapon.

Taotie cracked a smile.

The Strange Dagger in his hand, already eager for battle, pointed from afar at the Store Manager.

“Old fool, bring it on!”

Taotie provocatively gestured to the Store Manager with a crook of his finger.

“Hmph!”

“Courting death!”

The Store Manager snorted coldly.

The next second!

Whoosh whoosh whoosh—-

As the Soft Sword vibrated, the air was filled with the sound of it slicing through.

The Store Manager moved with the sword, and the floppy Soft Sword instantly stiffened and shot straight for Taotie’s throat, seemingly eager to finish him off with one strike.

Taotie narrowed his eyes slightly, his Strange Dagger fiercely slicing down, not caring whether the Store Manager’s Soft Sword would hit him; he made a wilful strike straight at the Store Manager’s forehead.

Taotie was playing a deadly gamble.

Think you’re tough?

Think you’re skilled?

Dare you bet your life against me?

Taotie’s thuggish fighting style was highly effective against someone as calculating as the Store Manager.

As the saying goes, the older one gets, the more one fears death.

The Store Manager was definitely among those who feared death.

After battling through blood and gore in Jianghu for so many years, he had finally clawed his way up to the position of Store Manager in the pawnshop. He hadn’t enjoyed it enough; how could he possibly risk his life against Taotie?

Seeing Taotie wanted to gamble with his life.

Without hesitation, the Store Manager pulled back to retreat, not engaging at all.

Avoiding Taotie’s gambit, the Store Manager flicked his wrist, the Soft Sword tensed once more, thrusting at an angle toward Taotie’s dagger-wielding hand.

So you like taking risks?

I’ll disarm you first.

Once you’re weaponless, let’s see how you fight.

Naturally, Taotie understood the Store Manager’s intent.

The Strange Dagger deflected with an upward swipe.

The Strange Dagger was longer than the Soft Sword. With one sweeping motion, he again poised for a mutual exchange of wounds.

The Soft Sword might wound him.

But the sweeping Strange Dagger would surely sever the Store Manager’s sword-holding arm.

Taotie and the Store Manager engaged in a battle of wits and bravery. It was a fight with offensive and defensive moves from both sides, and for a while, neither could gain the upper hand over the other.

Witnessing this scene, Fang Xiaocao blinked.

She turned towards those First-Class experts from the pawnshop.

Her lips curled into a cold sneer.

“`

“Hei Ta, go without stealing the kasaya!”

“Kill those guys on the other side!”

Fang Xiaocao waved her small hand, giving the command.

What a joke, this wasn’t an ancient battlefield for dueling generals, who said they had to wait for a victor before launching the final attack?

While Taotie was holding up the Pawnshop’s strongest, the Store Manager, if she didn’t take the chance to annihilate all these experts from the Pawnshop–

Then Fang Xiaocao’s brain would have to be addled.

Without stealing the kasaya, she could only handle one or two First-Class Experts, but Hei Ta was different. With a swing of his wolf-toothed club, Hei Ta didn’t care for anyone but Fang Xiaocao. Top-level or First-Class, all would die without exception.

Fang Xiaocao felt that sending these two simpletons should be enough to deal with the ten from the Pawnshop, so she didn’t command Hummingbird and Tom.

Upon hearing Fang Xiaocao’s orders, both Steal Kasaya and Hei Ta immediately put them into action.

The two simpletons walked shoulder to shoulder; you really would think they were brothers.

Seeing Steal Kasaya and Hei Ta slowly approaching, the ten Shopkeepers from the Pawnshop immediately became alert, each pulling out their weapons.

At the First-Class level, apart from those who specialized in marksmanship, those who didn’t particularly train in it didn’t like using guns.

They preferred close-quarters combat!

The free-for-all was about to erupt!

Steal Kasaya’s performance was ordinary.

Locked in battle with a Shopkeeper skilled in fists, he swung his bear paws fiercely, displaying a quite impressive set of Turtle Fist techniques.

There was no need to mention Hei Ta.

As soon as he made his move, his wolf-toothed club instantly killed a Shopkeeper.

The remaining eight Shopkeepers, witnessing this scene, all became more cautious.

They didn’t dare to confront Hei Ta head-on anymore.

They started playing a game of cat and mouse with Hei Ta.

Of course!

They were the mice, and Hei Ta was the cat!

Hei Ta was powerful, but he was too slow.

Even with the range of the wolf-toothed club’s attacks, he still struggled to inflict significant harm on the Shopkeepers.

Seeing this, Tom frowned slightly.

“It looks like another top-level master with a flaw…”

Tom shook his head helplessly, sighing.

Previously in the cave, as the space was relatively narrow and they were on the offensive, Hei Ta’s flaw wasn’t too apparent.

But now, in the open, facing several Shopkeepers who were nimble and not interested in fighting to the death, Hei Ta’s flaw was greatly magnified.

“Hummingbird, go help Hei Ta!”

Tom ordered Hummingbird.

“Yes!”

Hummingbird nodded in response.

With a flash, Hummingbird dashed into the crowd.

An Ancient Tang Dagger with a chill sliced through the air.

The dagger decapitated a Shopkeeper who dodged Hei Ta’s attack and presented himself as an easy target.

Hummingbird didn’t join the fray.

Instead, he circled Hei Ta, hunting down the Shopkeepers like an assassin.

With Hei Ta steadily driving them, Hummingbird’s hunt was effortless.

In the blink of an eye, all eight Shopkeepers fell at the hands of Hummingbird, slain by the Ancient Tang Dagger.

As the eighth Shopkeeper’s body slowly slid down, Hummingbird, with a swift move, plunged his dagger into the Shopkeeper grappling with Steal Kasaya, piercing right through him.

Hummingbird sheathed his dagger and returned to Fang Xiaocao’s side.

“Well done!”

Fang Xiaocao praised with a chuckle.

Looking at the Store Manager still locked in combat with Taotie, exchanging blows, Fang Xiaocao raised her eyebrows and smiled.

Fang Xiaocao suddenly felt like playing a prank.

Just now, that old man had tried to morally bind her.

He wanted to use words to make Fang Xiaocao give up resistance, and she felt provoked.

If there really was a Mouth-strong King in this world, then as a Hypnotist, Fang Xiaocao would be second to none, no one daring to claim the first spot.

A powerful Hypnotist could hypnotize someone with just a glance, and with their voice as well–though Fang Xiaocao wasn’t quite there yet, she still knew a bit…
