Novel Full Chapter 1355: I’m Saying This For Your Own Good
Even though Fearless did not excel in close-quarter combat, he wouldn’t just stand there and wait for his death either.
In the face of the incoming dagger, Fearless wave his staff in front of him, deflecting the dagger to the side, before viciously thrusting the lower end of the staff upwards.
“Eh?”
Upon seeing Fearless displaying some form of martial arts with his staff, Scarless became momentarily stunned. She hurriedly retreated backwards and asked curiously, “[Iron Sweeping River]? Where are you from?”
That’s right, Fearless learnt this move from Wang Yu…
Of course, [Iron Sweeping River] was a move that incorporated both defense and offense at the same time. However, because Fearless had learnt it on his own, he barely managed to pull off the defensive part. If it were Wang Yu, the second strike would have finished off Scarless in an instant.
However, it should be known that Fearless managed to execute this move solely based on watching Wang Yu execute it. Such a talent could be considered very high.
“Tsk!”
Upon seeing Scarless’ expression after seeing the move, and even being able to identify it, Fearless knew instantly that Scarless was someone similar to Wang Yu.
Therefore, Fearless waved his staff in front of him and adopted a stance that Wang Yu usually adopted, before provoking Scarless, saying, “Are you afraid now? Have you heard of the Wang family?”
“Wang family?”
Upon hearing this, Scarless sized Fearless up, before coldly smiling and said, “So, you are from the Wang family. I have long heard that the people from the Wang family are pretty active in this game. I have always wanted to cross hands with them but have never gotten the opportunity to do so! To think that someone from the Wang family would show up in front of me now!”
After hearing Scarless’ reply, Fearless heart turned cold. F*ck, he initially thought that given the status of the Wang family in the martial arts world, just the mention of their name would be able to scare off the opponent. Who would have thought that it would fire up the opponent instead! Could this lady be another resentful fiancee of Wang Yu as well?
Despite Wang Yu having the character of an honest and simple man, the Wang family was one of the top leading families in the martial arts world. From Evil Rampage’s style of doing things, it wasn’t difficult to tell that the Wang family was extremely overbearing in their methods, especially so for the generations above Wang Yu, and they usually relied on their fists to talk to people.
The achievements of the Wang family couldn’t have been accomplished by low-profile personnel.
Precisely because of this, the respect given to the Wang family was severely lacking compared to the status that they possessed, and were far from that received by the other three families. If Fearless had impersonated the Yang family or the Li family, Scarless would have had to give them face and let him off. Impersonating the Wang family on the other hand, was akin to asking for a beating!
“Hahaha! I’ll be taking my leave!”
After letting out a laugh, Fearless hurriedly cupped his hands towards Fearless before turning tail and making a run for it. Unfortunately, Scarless was an Assassin. Thus, her speed far exceeded that of Fearless. In a split second, she had already caught up to Fearless’ fleeing figure.
Without looking back, Fearless swung his staff horizontally towards his bag. Upon seeing this, Scarless calmly ducked her hand and easily avoided the attack. At the same time, she reached out to grab onto Fearless’ wrist and held it behind his back.
Without giving Fearless a chance to resist, the dagger on her other hand was viciously pierced into Fearless’ wrist.
“Pssh!”
After Fearless’ wrist was pierced by the dagger, his hand automatically released his grip on the staff by reflex, causing it to drop on the ground. Shortly after, Scarless let go of Fearless’ hand and kicked his figure a distance away. Following which, she formed a claw with her hand and aimed it towards the staff on the ground.
Fearless’ staff immediately ended up on Scarless’ hand.
“F*ck!”
Upon seeing the attributes of Fearless’ staff, Scarless exclaimed in shock, “The Wang family might be lacking in skills but your equipment seems pretty decent!”
Upon hearing this, Fearless hurriedly turned his head over. Upon seeing Scarless holding onto his staff, his face instantly paled.
The most important asset of a player was his equipment, and the weapon was the most important amongst them all!
Even though Fearless staff wasn’t God-grade, it was still a peak grade one. Furthermore, Fearless had carried it with him for so long and had gotten used to the familiarity of using it. Now that it had been easily snatched away by someone else, anyone would know how miserable Fearless was feeling right now.
Fearless had frequently stolen other players’ equipment, but he would have never thought that one day he would end up being the one that got stolen from instead.
However, Fearless also understood not to wail and beg the other party after having his equipment stolen away from him. Instead, he calmly turned around and stared at Scarless, saying, “Speak, what exactly do you want?”
Fearless naturally knew how strong these martial artists were. Given the ability that Scarless had displayed so far, it wasn’t difficult for her to defeat him. However, from the looks of things, the members of the Assassin Monarch surely didn’t travel all the way over here just to steal their equipment.
“What do I want?” Scarless casually kept Fearless’ staff in her inventory, before smiling and said, “Our Assassin Monarch has always been on par with your Quan Zhen Sect. However, your Quan Zhen Sect has recently been in too much limelight and has clearly not placed our Assassin Monarch in your eyes.”
“Ke ke!” Upon hearing this, Fearless coolly said, “Just because of this small little incident, the Assassin Monarch is willing to offend our Quan Zhen Sect? Surely Guild Leader, Scarless, should know the consequences of this.”
Of course, when one of two students who were originally scoring almost the same grades suddenly emerged as the best in the entire country, it was impossible for the other student to not feel anything about it. However, Fearless had a certain degree of understanding towards the people from Assassin Monarch.
After all, the characteristics of Assassin Monarch and Quan Zhen Sect were quite similar and were more pragmatic. They did not bother themselves with superficial things like fame and prestige. Otherwise, after having been established for so long, it was impossible for both parties to not have clashed before.
Provoking Quan Zhen Sect just because of such a small matter clearly wasn’t a practical and wise decision to make.
“Of course not!” Scarless smiled and said. Following which, she responded to Fearless’ gaze and asked, “Is the Saga City City Lord Seal in Quan Zhen Sect’s hands?”
“Saga City City Lord Seal?” Upon hearing this, Fearless’ heart involuntarily tightened. He frowned and said, “How did you know?”
Assassin Monarch had made a name for themselves by murdering and robbing, thus, Scarless would naturally not hide such a thing from Fearless. She answered frankly, “Taking people’s money and doing the dirty job for them! I’m sure you can guess how I got hold of this news.”
“So that’s why!” Fearless nodded his head in understanding, “Your Assassin Monarch really dares to earn whatever money there is! The City Lord Seal may have been taken by our Quan Zhen Sect, but it is honestly not with me.”
“Tsk!” Scarless revealed a look of disdain and said, “Don’t try to fool me just because I’m a woman! You are the Sect Leader of Quan Zhen Sect. If the City Lord Seal isn’t in your hands, then where is it? Don’t tell me you have already sold it? It doesn’t matter, you can just hand the money over to me, I’m not that picky!”
“What a greedy woman!” Fearless sighed before smiling and said, “We did not sell the City Lord Seal, but I advise you not to go and find out who it is with. I’m saying this for your own good. Even though you have nice curves, that brute wouldn’t go easy on you just because you are a lady!”
“Stop bullsh*tting with me!” Scarless raged and said, “If you continue uttering nonsense, I will destroy your staff right now!”
As she was speaking, Scarless took out Fearless’ staff and appeared as if she was about to break it…
“Don’t, don’t, don’t!” Upon seeing this, Fearless frantically cried out, “The both of us can be considered to be quite intimate with each other, let’s not be so ruthless to each other.”
Ignoring Fearless’ ramblings, Scarless viciously said, “Speak! Who has the City Lord Seal!”
“I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you!” Fearless frantically said, “He’s called Iron Bull, but he’s currently offline. You can wait for him here tomorrow morning at 8 am.”
