Chapter 614: Chapter 610: The Destruction of the Pawnshop

Half an hour ago, Taotie had already keenly noticed that Emperor Fengdu had begun burning his life force to fight.

Given Emperor Fengdu’s age, lasting a full half hour was something Taotie couldn’t help but admire.

Based on the fight’s duration and intensity, if it weren’t for today’s battle,

Emperor Fengdu, by maintaining his usual lifestyle and not fighting with others, could have lived ten to twenty more years.

It’s said that super masters enjoy endless glory, standing at the top of Jianghu.

They have endless privileges and honors.

But who knows how cautiously the elderly super masters live just to survive?

Just like Emperor Fengdu, the contemporary ruler of the pawnshop.

To protect the pawnshop, he fought a battle and burned ten to twenty years of his life.

Isn’t this the tragedy of a super master?

Young super masters like Taotie and Long Lie can indeed act recklessly to some extent.

But the elderly super masters live every moment with extreme caution.

They’re afraid that one moment of excitement will consume their already scant lifespan.

Fate is fair; when you break the limits of life and gain great power, you must pay an equivalent price in exchange.

"Old man, you’ve done your best."

Taotie said in a deep voice to Emperor Fengdu.

Emperor Fengdu gave a bitter smile and weakly nodded: "The pawnshop fell into your hands, it’s not a wrongful defeat."

"Especially you, your strength is unmatched in Jianghu."

"As long as you don’t engage in a life and death battle with the Ye Family’s Long Lie, you’ll be the undisputed overlord of Jianghu for the next two hundred years."

"Even Long Lie of the Ye Family will have to give you some leeway, but be wary of non-human super entities."

"Those bionic robots, you’ve witnessed their terror."

"Don’t think that half-step super is their limit."

"I can tell you, there are at least two super bionic robots out there."

"Be cautious of that young man named Qi Yu, he has a super bionic robot by his side, called Ultraman Tiga."

"If Qi Yu hadn’t directly shown evidence that Tiga is a bionic robot, even I couldn’t tell it wasn’t human."

"Behind Qi Yu, there’s another person."

"This person holds great hostility towards you all. Our collaboration with the Blacklist was bridged by him. He’s a super master with a super bionic robot by his side."

After saying this, Emperor Fengdu smiled: "I’m leaving now."

Before he finished speaking, Emperor Fengdu pulled out a dagger from his waist and plunged it into his heart.

As Emperor Fengdu’s body fell, the pawnshop, standing undefeated in Jianghu for several centuries, also officially closed its curtains, exiting the historical stage.

Fang Xiaocao couldn’t be bothered with the post-battle matters; she left Tom and Mantis to wait for Thousand Faces and took Taotie and the severely injured Unhappy back to Tang City.

——

Tang City!

Junyue Villa District, Villa No. 11.

"Sir, Fang Xiaocao has returned to Tang City."

A bearded man entered the villa from outside, respectfully reporting Fang Xiaocao’s whereabouts to Qi Yu.

Qi Yu, originally leaning drowsily on the sofa, brightened at the mention of Fang Xiaocao’s name.

"Where?"

Qi Yu asked in a deep voice.

His eyes flickered with a morbid excitement.

"Currently already back at the Mountain Foot Villa located in the suburbs."

The bearded man answered in a deep voice.

"Mountain Foot Villa——"

"Hehe——"

"Then let’s wait a bit longer, have someone keep an eye on Fang Xiaocao’s movements."

Qi Yu said somewhat disappointed.

After speaking, Qi Yu leaned back onto the sofa, resuming his drowsy state.

Five minutes later!

Qi Yu opened his eyes again and looked at the bearded man: "Why haven’t you left yet?"

Qi Yu asked with a bit of impatience.

"Sir, there’s one more thing."

The bearded man answered reverently.

Qi Yu frowned slightly: "Speak."

"According to investigations, it was Fang Xiaocao who destroyed the pawnshop."

"Is it wise for us to make an enemy of Fang Xiaocao now?"

The bearded man hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"You talk too much."

Qi Yu glanced coldly at the bearded man.

"Forgive me, sir."

The bearded man was immediately terrified, sweating like rain, and knelt down with a thud.

"Get out!"

Qi Yu spat out a word indifferently.

The bearded man, as if granted amnesty, turned and quickly ran out of the living room.

Qi Yu stared coldly at the bearded man’s back like a venomous snake.

"Idiot."

Qi Yu cursed, got up, stretched lazily, and headed towards the torture chamber.

He pushed open the door and entered the chamber.

The cross that previously held Shen Tao was now occupied by another person.

This person was also familiar.

It was the old man who had given Han Xue the disease.

Han Xue had retaliated against this old man before, but he was sly and escaped.

But now he had fallen into Qi Yu’s hands.

"Who are you?"

"Why are you kidnapping me?"

Seeing someone enter the chamber, the old man shouted hoarsely.

"Noisy!"

Qi Yu coldly eyed the old man. He picked up a whip soaked in salt water and lashed out.

Crack——

The whip landed, and the old man instantly let out a harrowing cry.

Qi Yu smirked coldly, lashing with increasing intensity.

Each strike hit the old man harder.

The old man, suffering from illnesses and having his body ravaged by indulgence, couldn’t withstand even ten lashes before he was on the brink of death.

He didn’t even have the strength to wail anymore.

Qi Yu felt bored, tossed the whip back into the saltwater basin, and picked up several meter-long steel nails from the rack beside him.

He drove them one by one into the old man’s body. When the last nail pierced into the old man’s brain through his skull, the old man widened his eyes in shock.

Looking at the lifeless old man, Qi Yu smiled in satisfaction.

"What an outstanding work of art, I’m truly a genius."

Qi Yu muttered to himself.

——

Just as Qi Yu was marveling at his potential to become a maniac, Fang Xiaocao greeted two unexpected guests.

Tang City!

Mountain Foot Villa!

A red Land Rover slowly approached along the villa’s front path.

But before it reached the Mountain Foot Villa, three men stopped it.

"The villa in front and the mountain in the back are private estate areas, no visits without an appointment."

One of the men said in a deep voice.

These three men were warriors trained by Phoenix Nest.

One top-tier, two first-class.

Their duty was to guard for Fang Xiaocao and also serve as a warning post.

"Please contact Ms. Fang Xiaocao and tell her an old friend has come to swap a car."

The red Land Rover’s window slowly rolled down, and a man with a crew cut and sunglasses covering half his face stuck his head out.

Phoenix Nest’s trio scrutinized the man critically.

After a while, the lead said, "Is it just for this car?"
