Chapter 803: Chapter 800: Listed as Number One Mortal Enemy!
"I’ll kill you!"
Seeing that Xiao Tian still dared to flirt at a time like this, Kojima Minako’s True Qi instantly went berserk, howling as it surged toward her wrist, and a moment later...
"Clang!"
On the cold snow, the throwing knife that had slipped from Kojima Minako’s hand flashed with a chilling cold light as it lay quietly on the icy ground.
At the same time, Kojima Minako only felt her limbs start to go soft and weak, and the rampaging True Qi also began slowly drawing back. That sense of powerlessness spread rapidly, and for a moment even her legs couldn’t stand steady.
Kojima Minako hurriedly forced herself to calm down, barely pushing those shameful things out of her mind as she did a full analysis of everything that had happened since the fight began.
Relying on her understanding of the human body, Kojima Minako instantly realized where the problem lay.
Those moves her opponent had used that looked like he was just taking advantage of her were actually all strikes to the main acupoints on her body. Now that her meridians were blocked, of course the circulation of True Qi would be obstructed.
And once she lost the support of True Qi, all the blows she’d taken earlier naturally rebounded onto her flesh without any buffering. The fact that she could still hold out now was already thanks to her excellent physical fitness.
Not only that, after figuring out this key point, Kojima Minako felt Xiao Tian was even more terrifying.
If her reaction hadn’t been just a little bit faster just now, she probably would have collapsed to the ground in an instant, becoming a lamb on the chopping block to be slaughtered at will.
However, even though that kind of horrifying consequence hadn’t occurred, Kojima Minako still felt the situation was far from optimistic, because judging from Xiao Tian’s behavior throughout the fight, he definitely wouldn’t miss this opportunity.
Thinking this far, Kojima Minako finally couldn’t hold on anymore. Her legs went weak and she was about to collapse to the ground.
Sure enough, in the next instant, quick-eyed and quick-handed, Xiao Tian shot forward like an arrow to stand in front of Kojima Minako, using the bit of True Qi he had just gathered to catch her around the waist before she hit the ground.
Maintaining this ambiguous posture, Xiao Tian deliberately showed an evil smile. "Feeling really desperate now? Really regretting not killing me the first chance you had?"
Kojima Minako didn’t speak, but her eyes, sharp as blades, stabbed straight into Xiao Tian’s, as if she wanted to kill him with her gaze alone.
Seeing this, Xiao Tian acted even more arrogant. Judging from his posture, he really did look like a complete pervert. Under Kojima Minako’s icy stare, he slowly reached his hand toward the two lofty peaks on her chest.
Just as Xiao Tian had said, Kojima Minako’s feelings at this moment really were despair mixed with regret, but what she felt even more was that this was unworthy of that deeply affectionate woman Liu Hanyan. A guy with such shitty character, does he deserve her heart?!
Thinking of this, Kojima Minako slowly closed her beautiful eyes, unable to stop a tear from sliding from the corner of her eye as she waited for the fate that belonged to her to arrive...
...
After a long time had passed and she still didn’t feel anything strange, Kojima Minako trembled slightly as she opened her eyes, only to see Xiao Tian’s face full of ridicule.
"You can go."
Xiao Tian said blandly, then reached out and lightly tapped Kojima Minako’s lower abdomen, before turning to leave.
Kojima Minako instantly sensed that some strength had returned to her limbs. Although she still couldn’t smoothly use her True Qi, it was enough to maintain basic movement.
"You’re not afraid that by letting me go today, I’ll come kill you another day?!" Kojima Minako’s icy voice rang out from behind Xiao Tian.
Xiao Tian paused at the sound, but didn’t turn around. He just let out a light laugh, his tone still indifferent as he said, "Not afraid."
Kojima Minako’s cherry lips moved a few times, but in the end she didn’t say anything more, merely making up her mind that from today on, Xiao Tian would be her number one mortal enemy!
A moment later, Xiao Tian stopped again and said, "Oh right, if you lightly tap your Guanyuan Acupoint and Jianjing Acupoint once each, you can temporarily recover a bit of True Qi. As for the follow-up, it’ll automatically解除 after half a day."
After speaking, Xiao Tian turned back again and openly let his eyes roam up and down Kojima Minako. "In a place like this, it’s hard to say what might happen to a weak woman without a shred of True Qi. Not everyone is as kind as I am!"
Kojima Minako felt like her teeth were about to shatter from clenching. This bastard actually dared to call himself kind—was his face bulletproof or what?!
Seeing that Xiao Tian really was about to leave without another pause, Kojima Minako forcibly swallowed her shame and shouted in a delicate voice, "Wait!"
Xiao Tian couldn’t help stopping again, and said impatiently, "You’d better not test my bottom line. Don’t think I really don’t dare do anything to you."
Kojima Minako’s face was as red as a boiled lobster. She clenched her pink fists tightly, then gritted her teeth and said, "About that Guanyuan Acupoint and Jianjing Acupoint you mentioned, can you be a bit more specific about where they are?"
After saying that, she added, "I’m not very familiar with Huaxia’s traditional medicine."
At this moment, Kojima Minako only felt so ashamed and enraged she wanted to die. If there’d been any other way at all, she absolutely wouldn’t have opened her mouth to ask for help from Xiao Tian, the man she’d just listed as her number one mortal enemy.
But on the other hand, what Xiao Tian had said really was very likely to happen. Since it concerned her own safety, she couldn’t afford to cling to her pride.
Truth be told, Kojima Minako’s feelings were really complicated right now. Those Biochemical Beasts she’d always looked down on—if she’d brought a few along, she probably wouldn’t have ended up in a situation where she had to ask her enemy for help.
At a time like this, for such thoughts to pop up—there was no denying it was a kind of mockery.
While Kojima Minako was still uneasy inside, Xiao Tian finally walked back over. However, he didn’t immediately解除 her acupoints. Instead, he picked up the throwing knife on the ground and said, "Can I ask you a question?"
"Say it." Kojima Minako truly had no energy left to waste in bickering with him and agreed at once.
"About that Liu Hanyan you mentioned..." Xiao Tian asked, enunciating each word, "who exactly is she?!"
"..."
Kojima Minako’s gaze immediately changed. After confirming several times that Xiao Tian wasn’t joking, she said irritably, "A stranger. Isn’t that allowed?!"
Seeing that she absolutely wouldn’t tell the truth on this question, Xiao Tian had no choice but to switch topics. "Then about the rumor that I have a Treasure Map on me—who spread that?"
This question was easy to answer. Kojima Minako thought for a moment, then replied truthfully, "I don’t know who it was, but I can tell you one thing—it wasn’t spread by the Water Drop Organization!"
Xiao Tian nodded, then used the dagger in his hand to lightly tap Kojima Minako’s shoulder and lower abdomen. His figure then shot out like an arrow and quickly vanished from the scene.
...
After Xiao Tian left, Kojima Minako immediately set her body in motion and left right after him, leaving the experts hidden in the dark, who had been eagerly waiting to watch a good show, completely dumbfounded.
I already fucking took my pants off, and this is what you show me?!
This dramatically anticlimactic battle made all the masters who had been secretly observing feel like they’d been played. They each grumbled a few complaints and then left the place one after another.
As for whether Xiao Tian really had a Treasure Map on him, by now no one cared anymore. They weren’t going to get it anyway, and overthinking it would only bring trouble down on their own heads!
