Chapter 167 - Chess Pawn, Father and Daughter (II)
Chapter 167: Chess Pawn, Father and Daughter (II)
In Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s memories, her father’s face had always been blurry. He had vanished when she was very young. Before leaving, he left her mother with a small sum of money, which was not enough to make down payments, even in the years when the prices of houses were low. It was as if her mother, her and her sister are worth that price in the man’s eyes. When he wasn’t sick of her mother yet, he spoke honeyed words to her. Once he was tired of her, he immediately abandoned her.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s childhood was spent facing her grandparents’ disdain, her mother’s tears, and her sister’s cries that night. The hatred she buried in her heart was no less than Wu Sanjin’s.
“Xiao Fei?” The man frowned.
“Shut up!” Thunderbolt Battle Lady yelled. She didn’t have a name and was even ashamed of her surname. Ever since she joined Baoze, she was only called Thunderbolt Battle Lady.
“I’m here to avenge my mother and sister, Wu.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady grasped the short knife in her hand.
“Are you the daughter of the female student of Northeast University? A few years ago, the woman who assassinated the clan master was your sister?” Covering her chest, the woman, whose blood was still flowing, was supported by her son. She gasped for breath, and stared viciously at Thunderbolt Battle Lady. “I killed your mother, and I sent someone to kill you and your sister. Unfortunately, that useless thing showed mercy and let you two wretches live.”
“It was you?!” Thunderbolt Battle Lady was shocked and enraged.
“A bitch actually wants to marry into the Wu family, how preposterous.” The woman sneered, “I don’t care how many women he has outside. Don’t let me see them. But once they appear before me… I not only wanted her to die, but also gave her to a group of outlaws raised by the Wu family. Didn’t she want a man? I’ll give them to her. I let her suffer a fate worse than death.”
Wu Yuanping’s face was calm and seemed to have known for a long time.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s hand holding the knife shook slightly and her knuckles were white from her grip. “Even so, you could drive her out of here, why kill her?”
“Hilarious, why would I need to consider killing an ant?” The woman scoffed, “It’s my greatest mercy to pretend I saw nothing. That woman thought too highly of herself and showed herself before me. Who should I kill if not her? I can’t control my man, so I could only kill her to vent my fury. She only has herself to blame for being unlucky.” After saying this, the woman suddenly pulled out a small pistol and shot at Thunderbolt Battle Lady multiple times.
As Thunderbolt Battle Lady was in a state of agitation, her reaction was slow. However, Li Xianyu, who was there, was on his guard. When the woman pulled out her pistol, he raised his Great-Grandma and threw her out.
The bullet collided and hit Great-Grandma’s skull. The iron-headed Great-Grandma pouted and scratched her head. “After this matter has been resolved, I’ll hang you upside down and give you a beating, you unfilial grandson.”
Li Xianyu made a cheeky expression at her, turned and said gravely, “Battle Lady, don’t listen to her, she’s trying to rile you up.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady took a deep breath and nodded.
The woman pushed her son and roared, “What are you doing? Help your father break the barrier. Are you all stupid? Why aren’t y’all taking action…”
Spurt!
The steel ball pierced through her head, and she was given a headshot by Kato Eagle.
The top employees of Baoze were ruthless and determined. They had already given her face by letting her talk so much.
“Mom!” Wu Zhemu shouted as he flicked away a steel ball charging towards him. His expression was ferocious. “I’m going to kill all of you.”
“Hey… What was I thinking?”
“Why didn’t I break the barrier? I actually wanted to see the clan master and his daughter fight.”
“How strange, why did I suddenly become stupid…”
The surrounding Wu family members were in a daze. They felt that their brain seemed to crash for a while, until their clan mistress was shot in the head before they reacted.
Hou’s Wisdom Subtraction!
Thunderbolt Battle Lady took out a black octagonal alloy box from her pocket, which was the only key to enter the energy barrier.
“Help me guard the barrier. Between him and I, only one person can leave alive. This is my revenge and I have to be the one to do it. If I die, avenge me.” After pausing, she whispered, “Thank you.” This thank you was directed to everyone, but particularly to Li Xianyu.
The long-legged beauty resolutely stepped into the energy barrier and crushed the octagonal alloy box. The Wu family members’ superpowers made it extremely easy for them to escape. Wu Yuanping was the clan owner and a master ranked 55th on the demon descendants list.
Ranked 55th on the list, he was a powerful man. If he wanted to escape, few people could catch up with him. Even Great-Grandma couldn’t , as most of her power was sealed.
Some revenge has to be avenged by themselves, and it makes no sense for others to take revenge for her. Li Xianyu respected Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s choice. If it was him, the feud of killing her mother and sister… He would certainly shatter the spirit bead like his Great-Grandma to revenge, although he did not have it.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady stepped into the energy barrier and a sharp knife charged at her. She disappeared like a ghost and appeared behind Wu Yuanping, dealing an equally sharp blow back.
Wu Yuanping turned back to block the knife, as Thunderbolt Battle Lady kicked at him. However, she only managed to kick an afterimage.
Her shoulder hurt, as a deep visible wound was cut, revealing her bone. She did not look back and kicked Wu Yuanping in the abdomen.
“You’re excellent. If I knew that such a powerful daughter was out there, I would have left your mother alive.” Wu Yuanping rubbed his abdomen and was surprised at his illegitimate daughter’s skill. “My muscles and bones are rusty. I haven’t struck for many years.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady remained silent and charged ferociously.
“Your stubborn gaze reminds me of your sister.” Wu Yuanping parried her blows as he attacked her with words, “When she was a child, I often hugged her. She also loved to stick to me. However, when a lady grows up, her heart will also change. She immediately turned against me with a knife. I asked her if she was willing to let go of her hatred, and she said it was impossible, so I had to kill her. I crushed her skull in a blow. She left without pain.”
His gaze flickered, and he found Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s flaw and attempted to slash her in the neck. Thunderbolt Battle Lady hurriedly lifted her arms to block and her arms almost got chopped off at the elbows, revealing bone.
“I won’t fall for the same goading a second time.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady’s blade pierced Wu Yuanping’s chest, but was blocked by a thin light barrier. After the tip of the blade cut open the skin, it could not even enter an inch.
The Wu clan master definitely had some defensive devices to protect himself. There was nothing to be surprised about.
“How long can you last with such a combat technique that will hurt both parties? At most, you can shatter my spiritual device. Kill me? That’s ridiculous,” Wu Yuanping mocked.
His wife was dead, and his son was going insane. However, to him, he merely lost a wife. He could get women easily, so did it matter?
Lady Killer, King Kong and Li Xianyu guarded three directions. The first two were facing many enemies but handled the weak opponents effortlessly. Li Xianyu and Wu Zhemu were fighting each other one-on-one, but the pressure was great.
If he didn’t use his super power, he was no match for Wu Zhemu, in terms of strength and skill. After all, the opponent was a young and strong combatant of the Wu family. Fortunately, Li Xianyu was used to being abused by Thunderbolt Battle Lady usually. He knew the speed ability like the back of his hand, and was barely holding his own.
Ten meters away, Great-Grandma, dressed in hot pants and a black T-shirt, sat on the collapsed stone wall. She placed a bag of potato chips on her thighs and was munching on them while watching the show. She face-palmed at her great-grandson, and frowned. “Fool, what about the spiritual eye I activated for you?”
Li Xianyu was immediately enlightened. Using his index finger to touch his forehead, he activated the spiritual eye. His eyeball grew hot, as it stimulated the lacrimal gland to secrete tears. In his sight, Wu Zhemu’s phantom flash step was no longer difficult to catch.
He was still very fast, but it wasn’t as swift as before, where Li Xianyu couldn’t figure it out at all. Li Xianyu could catch his moving track now.
This made things much easier. As long as he can capture Wu Zhemu’s track of action, he would win with his self-healing ability and a myriad of techniques.
He pretended that he could not see Wu Zhemu’s speed, holding the laser sword blade, and was exhausted. Wu Zhenu’s gaudy dark gold Nepalese Army knife cut several wounds in him.
Whoosh… The tendons in both his hands were cut, and the laser sword fell to the ground, turning into a simple handle. Then, the tendons in his feet were cut, and he staggered.
“Who cares if you are the Li family descendant? Die!” Wu Zhemu suddenly appeared in front of him. With a ferocious smile on his face, the Nepalese army knife was aimed to cut off Li Xianyu’s head.
At such a speed, even if the Unparalleled War Spirit reacted, there was no time to rescue Li Xianyu. Wu Zhemu believed that arrogance was the greatest weakness of the Unparalleled War Spirit, and she would lose her inheritor and pay a heavy price.
So what if he had self-healing powers? As long as the knife was fast enough to cut the head off, I don’t believe you can still live. The Wu family is on the verge of destruction. Who still cares if you shatter your spirit bead? Do you really think all the demon descendants in the world fears you, Unparalleled War Spirit?
The Nepalese Army knife stopped in mid-air and was firmly grasped by a left hand. Wu Zhemu was shocked as he frowned. A sharp sword aura pierced his head, and sounds of Li Xianyu spitting rang in his ear. “Pfft!”
He knew in advance that I would appear, and prepared his killing blow… How could this… Before he could finish his question, his consciousness slipped into the boundless darkness, and all thoughts disappeared.
“Moron.” Li Xianyu pinched the neck of the soft corpse, and Slime absorbed his essence, feeding it back to the host.
Li Xianyu was glad to find that the qi in his core had grown again. Wu Zhemu cultivated hard for twenty years and all his hard work had benefited him instead.
“Such a war brings about many benefits, and I can absorb so much essence to become a master of the world! No, such an idea is too dangerous, I have to restrain myself, or I will become demonic.” He had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
In the energy barrier, Wu Yuanping, who saw this scene, was extremely agitated.
“Young Master Zhemu is dead!”
“Break the barrier and save the clan master.”
“Baoze’s staff will die horrible deaths. They united with the Demons Alliance to wipe out our Wu family.”
“We must save the clan master, contact all the families, and seek justice for us, the Wu family.”
A large number of Wu family members flew into a rage and charged over, their eyes bloodshot.
Great-Grandma sat on a high point in the ruins watching the show and with no doubt, became a living target. The Wu family members who were in the midst of killing didn’t care that she was the Unparalleled War Spirit. As long as they weren’t one of them, they would kill them.
Great-Grandma casually killed some lackeys and continued to eat potato chips. She watched with interest as her great-grandson dealt with the aggressive Wu family members that converged like ants.
This should be the way. Ever since ancient times, which top master didn’t fight their way out? She was the guardian of the Li family, but also bore the burden of training inheritors. If life was too comfortable, she would personally push the family descendant into the abyss. Fortunately, this generation descendant had a trouble magnet physique that was unheard of.
Whoosh! A wind charged behind her, as her hair billowed in the wind . A massive python lunged, as if it thought she was a member of the Wu family.
Great-Grandma turned back expressionlessly.
The python’s vertical pupils contracted and shrank into a seam as thin as a needle. Its huge body stiffened, as if it had been greatly frightened and forced itself to stop.
“I’m sorry, so sorry to bother you… Good-bye.” The python bowed a few times, as if it were apologizing and slithered away quickly. Oh my god, it’s the Unparalleled War Spirit. That was terrifying.
