Chapter 321: Chapter 317 Originally Ugly, Now Disfigured
Beneath the relentless agility of Ying Huo, and the endless barrage of hidden weapons, Taotie was fuming with rage, his eyes swelling with a sanguine red.
Those familiar with Taotie knew that this was a sign he was getting angry, about to unleash his full strength.
Now, Ying Huo was about to face the full fury of Taotie’s assault!
“Wench, die for me!”
With a bellow, Taotie swung his Strange Dagger fiercely, creating a gust of wind as he slashed viciously towards Ying Huo.
This strike!
Its name: Sweep Thousands Army!
Even in the midst of a thousand soldiers, it could sweep them all away with one blow.
It epitomized the principle of unstoppable force.
It was most suitable for a brute like Taotie to wield.
And only a Dahan like Taotie could bring out the full, splendid might of Sweep Thousands Army.
The moment Taotie released his strike, Ying Huo was terrified, her moves faltering.
Ying Huo’s expression drastically changed, no longer desiring battle.
Immediately, she tried to disengage and retreat.
No more playing!
Any more and lives would be at stake!
Time to beat a hasty retreat!
Merely witnessing the momentum behind Taotie’s blow, Ying Huo no longer had the courage to continue fighting and prepared to flee.
However…
Ying Huo wanted to run, but Taotie did not give her the chance.
Though she dodged his strike in time,
she was still grazed by the blade’s edge.
In an instant, locks of black hair danced in the air.
Ying Huo’s carefully tended flowing hair had been sheared into a bob by Taotie.
Had Ying Huo dodged a moment slower, it wouldn’t have been just her exquisite locks that Taotie clipped.
Even that sharp-jawed monkey-like head of hers would have fallen.
Ying Huo was shocked to her core.
She had no time to mourn her shorn hair.
Flinging a handful of steel needles at Taotie without checking if they would hit, she immediately turned and bolted.
“Damn it!”
Taotie cursed loudly.
Swinging his Strange Dagger repeatedly, he knocked down all the incoming steel needles.
But as he was delayed by the needles, Taotie, already slower than Ying Huo, realized it was too late to catch up to her.
Ying Huo smirked triumphantly.
So what if you’re formidable?
Still can’t catch me, can you?
Enjoy my dust trail, sucker!
Ying Huo’s smile was smugger than if she were holding an AK.
But…
The very next second!
Ying Huo came to understand the true meaning of joy turning to sorrow.
Whoosh—
A sound broke the silence behind her head.
Ying Huo, startled, turned and flung back two steel needles.
Ting—
Sparks flew in mid-air!
Two Flying Daggers were knocked out of the sky by her needles.
It was Qian Xia making a move!
Think you can escape?
It’s not so easy!
Qian Xia’s hands flew in a flurry!
Whoosh—
Whistling sounds filled the air.
Flying Daggers sped forth, targeting critical points all over Ying Huo’s body.
Ying Huo had no choice!
She had to slow down to counter with her steel needles.
Given Qian Xia’s Flying Dagger skill, dodging alone was certainly not an option, and Ying Huo, deeply versed in the art of hidden weapons, knew this all too well.
But having to knock down the Flying Daggers with her hidden weapons, naturally, her speed decreased.
Seeing this, Taotie couldn’t help but gloat.
“Heh heh!”
“Try running now!”
Taotie laughed wickedly, gripping his Strange Dagger as he charged barbarically towards Ying Huo.
“You witch, take this!”
Taotie roared, hoisting his Strange Dagger high, and with a Mountain-Cleaving Strike, he viciously brought it down upon Ying Huo’s head.
Seeing the bearlike Taotie charging at her, Ying Huo was horrified!
She had just used all her strength to fend off Qian Xia’s Flying Daggers.
She had no awareness of Taotie closing in.
Now, it was too late to try the same escape tactic and run.
“`
They had no choice but to clash head-on, either to both suffer injuries or perhaps find a slim chance of survival.
With this thought, Ying Huo no longer hesitated.
She suddenly bent down, her hand pressing on her waistband.
Her fingers hooked onto a metal ring.
There was a crossbow on Ying Huo’s back!
An ancient hidden weapon…
The Back-Mounted Crossbow!
As she bowed and bent over, the crossbow arrow would automatically string and fire.
However, for safety reasons, Ying Huo had made a special modification to her Back-Mounted Crossbow: an additional safety mechanism in the form of that metal ring on the waistband.
Pulling the metal ring, the crossbow mounted on her back would instantly shoot, killing the enemy in front of her.
Her fingers hooked onto the metal ring, Ying Huo’s lips uncontrollably curled up in a triumphant smile.
“Hehe~”
“No matter what kind of top-level master you are, aren’t you still going to die by my hidden weapon?”
Ying Huo began to laugh proudly in her heart.
Taotie saw that Ying Huo didn’t run away but instead bowed towards him, causing some confusion in his mind. But the Strange Dagger had already been readied. He suppressed his doubts, mustered all his strength, and slashed out with the dagger!
He was determined to cleave this undead monster beneath his blade!
Let him have whatever schemes and tricks!
Taotie had a strike that would shatter them all!
Bang—
At that moment, a gunshot suddenly rang out.
A bullet passed through Taotie’s armpit.
Directly shattering Ying Huo’s cranial vault.
In a flash!
It was like a dye shop had opened.
Red, white, clear liquids splattered everywhere, drenching Taotie and covering the ground around him.
The next second!
Whoosh—
A crossbow arrow tore through Ying Huo’s clothing on her back.
And shot straight at Taotie.
Simultaneously, the Strange Dagger came crashing down heavily.
The gleaming edge of the Strange Dagger, empowered by Taotie’s tremendous strength, came down fiercely and precisely on the crossbow arrow…
Clang—
The Strange Dagger collided with the all-iron crossbow arrow.
Sparks flickered and vanished in an instant!
The crossbow arrow was deflected by the Strange Dagger, whistling past Taotie’s cheek, leaving a trail of blood in its wake.

Clang—
The bent crossbow arrow fell to the ground.
At the same time, a deep, blood-drenched cut appeared on Taotie’s cheek.
Taotie was stunned!
He exclaimed, “That was close!”
Taotie had not expected Ying Huo to have another trick up her sleeve.
Even after being shot dead, she managed to fire a crossbow arrow at the last moment, nearly taking his life.
If it weren’t for the unexpected bullet that killed Ying Huo…
If it weren’t for his pause due to the gunshot, which happened just in time to intercept the arrow…
Then he might have really been killed by that crossbow arrow to the head.
Even for someone as thick-skinned as Taotie, facing the narrow escape from death, he felt some relief.
“Whew~”
Tom blew breath on the barrel of the gun.
He turned off the safety!
The gun spun around his finger.
Tom slid the gun back into his holster at his waist.
“I told you to use the gun!”
“But you just had to scratch that itch and use the dagger.”
“Almost got your head blown off, right?”
Tom gave Taotie a sidelong glance and commented sarcastically.
This dangerous scene left Fang Xiaocao trembling with fear, and she rushed over hastily.
“Taotie, are you alright?”
Fang Xiaocao asked with concern.
“Hummingbird, bring the medical kit quickly!”
Fang Xiaocao turned her head and shouted to Hummingbird.
“Princess Your Highness, I’m fine!”
Taotie wiped the blood off his face and said with a smile.
“Fine my foot!”
“Looking at the depth of that wound, it’s probably going to scar!”
“You were already ugly, and now you’ve disfigured yourself!”
Fang Xiaocao said with a slight look of disgust.
Taotie was at a loss for words!
The feeling of gratitude that had just risen in his heart instantly dissipated. If she wasn’t their own Princess Your Highness, Taotie would have sent a Strange Dagger flying her way long ago, teaching her how to be a person again…
