Hong Xiaoduo lashed her whip at the black wolf's calf in mid-air. After the whip touched the wolf's leg, the tip of the whip wrapped around the wolf's leg. Instead of pulling the wolf down, Hong Xiaoduo, on a whim, raised her arm and swung the whip, wanting to see just how powerful she was now.
One lap, two laps, three laps... Black Wolf was like a little sparrow with its claws tied, how could it be so easy?
She didn't feel any strain at all? The key point is that the whip didn't loosen and make her fall! It was as if as long as she kept swinging it, the other person could keep spinning in mid-air.
What's the principle behind this? Hong Xiaoduo has always been a bit confused. Is this a special ability that she was given after being teleported here?
They possess immense strength and will never be injured or killed, no matter how dangerous the situation.
Well, I have to admit, Old Luo and his unreliable elders were actually quite humane in this respect. They couldn't exactly trick people into doing their bidding, only to have them work hard and suffer losses!
Uncle Tong and Uncle Chuan were dumbfounded. Judging from his build, the man in black must have weighed at least 130 or 140 pounds, yet she was tossing him around like a toy!
With a clatter, the knife in Mushroom's hand fell to the ground, and he stared dumbfounded at the black shadow flying in mid-air.
Of the three, Black Wolf was the best, followed by Unicorn Sheep, and then him. But Black Wolf had barely made a move, and before they even had a chance to exchange blows, it was already like this. If it were him, wouldn't he be even worse?
The sound of the mushroom knife hitting the ground brought Hong Xiaoduo back to her senses. Her wrist still didn't feel sore, so she simply ended this meaningless test. Anyway, she knew she was pretty good, and that was enough!
As for just how powerful it is, that will be proven in the future.
With a gentle flick of the wrist, the spinning black shadow fell to the ground with a thud.
Hong Xiaoduo looked at the pale-faced Black Wolf, who was still gripping his sword tightly with clenched teeth. Although she didn't say anything, her face was full of contempt. Black Wolf didn't notice that he was dizzy after finally landing. He struggled to stand up, but staggered and fell down again, just like a drunkard.
Finally, leaning on his sword, he managed to stand up, albeit unsteadily.
He opened his mouth, intending to utter some harsh words, but instead, he vomited.
"Mushroom, are you dead? Why are you just standing there watching the show? Go get him!" Black Wolf was in a terrible state and called out to his companion who was standing motionless.
Mushroom, whose name was called, hesitated for a moment, then, upon seeing Hong Xiaoduo's teasing smile, turned and ran, abandoning the weapons on the ground.
No wonder the unicorn withdrew; it realized the danger!
"Want to leave now? Don't you think it's a bit too late?" Hong Xiaoduo said, taking out a pebble and throwing it at the fleeing figure. The next moment, the person staggered and fell to the ground, but still struggled to crawl forward.
"I'll go get him back." Seeing that Hong Xiaoduo didn't make another move, Lang Chuan was worried that the person might escape. He told Uncle Tong and then ran towards the person.
Hong Xiaoduo slowly took a step forward towards the black wolf, looking with disgust at the guy whose clothes were covered in vomit. He had already torn off the black cloth covering his face.
"With this little skill, you think you can make this kind of money? Tell me, who is the employer?" After saying that, Hong Xiaoduo had no choice but to take two steps back; it smelled too bad.
She didn't even expect to hear anything from this guy anymore. She glanced at Uncle Chuan, who had subdued the guy who was trying to escape in a few quick moves, and dragged him back by the collar. Otherwise, asking that guy would be the same thing.
This trip to the capital wasn't very long. If we're talking about people I offended, it would be Minister Gu, the forces behind Consort Yun, and Chancellor Tan.
But Tan Jijiu probably wouldn't go so far as to hire someone to kill her, and Gu Shangshu probably wouldn't be interested in seeking revenge against her either! So the most likely culprit is the remaining forces behind Consort Yun.
"Don't you know who you've offended? Ugh." Black Wolf replied with difficulty.
"I've offended far too many people to even think about it. Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I'll ask your companions." Hong Xiaoduo wasn't annoyed or angry; her tone was casual, as if she were chatting with the other person.
"Who exactly are you? Do you dare to state your name?" Black Wolf thought to himself, realizing he had been careless. He would try to catch his breath before making a move.
Hong Xiaoduo naturally saw through the other party's intention, but didn't care: "I'm a newcomer to the martial arts world, and I don't have any name."
Just then, Lang Chuan dragged the person to Hong Xiaoduo, let go of her, and stood aside.
"Thank you, Uncle Chuan," Hong Xiaoduo said with a smile.
Black Wolf's eyes quickly scanned Mushroom's entire body. He had been spinning in mid-air and had to close his eyes because he was dizzy. Therefore, he only knew that Mushroom realized the danger and tried to escape, but he didn't expect that he couldn't get away.
Seeing the trembling, pained man clutching his knee, Black Wolf's body shuddered. A flicker of surprise crossed his eyes, followed by undisguised shock. There was a bloody hole in Mushroom's knee, clearly caused by some kind of hidden weapon, which was why he hadn't been able to escape.
She's so young, yet she possesses such internal strength?
Wait, something's not right. Black Wolf tried to calm herself down, searching for clues in her memory: young and arrogant, vicious and conceited, with unknown hidden weapons, rarely using a sword, and preferring a soft whip. Several big shots in the underworld had fallen at her hands.
"Deadly Rakshasa?" Black Wolf blurted out, only then realizing the meaning of the words the unicorn had said to him: sword and whip!
He hadn't really taken these things seriously when he first heard them, thinking they were just rumors circulating in the martial arts world, exaggerated and overblown.
Unexpectedly, there really was such a person, and I was unlucky enough to run into her!
Black Wolf was startled, and his body swayed involuntarily.
"Who do you think the employer is?" Hong Xiaoduo didn't notice what Black Wolf was muttering and looked at Mushroom to ask.
Who gave this nickname? It has nothing to do with mushrooms! It's too casual! Unlike Black Wolf, who did indeed display the agility and ferocity of a wolf when he leaped up to attack earlier.
“It’s Gu Baolin, and his brothers.” Mushroom looked at Hong Xiaoduo with great fear and hurriedly responded, afraid that if she was too slow, she would get angry and cripple her other leg.
How could such a seemingly harmless young woman be so ruthless? Wouldn't the people in her sect be even more vicious?
What a mistake! Why didn't I listen to the unicorn and give up on leaving?
Now, although it's too late to say anything, if I cooperate honestly, I should be able to save my life!
"Gu Baolin?" Hong Xiaoduo couldn't remember for a moment.
Seeing her expression, Lang Chuan quickly prompted, "The sixth son of Minister Gu, who has resigned from his post and returned to his hometown to recuperate..."
