Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 169 The Ice Emperor's Fury

The sudden sweet female voice made the old man tremble. His previous brief astonishment instantly turned into an eagle-like sharp gaze, staring at the black-robed woman in front of him.

"you"

Even though the store is deserted, there are still people coming to buy maps, and it is normal for them to ask about the price.

After years of running a shop, he has become accustomed to countless people and things. No matter if it is someone who is arrogant and domineering because of his cultivation, or someone who secretly tries to steal while he is making maps, he has full confidence that he can easily suppress them.

Trying to take advantage of him is undoubtedly a pipe dream.

But the black-robed woman in front of him, whose voice was as clear as a young girl, made him feel extremely wary for the first time in his life, and even a trace of inexplicable fear in his heart.

This kind of covert concealment method, as well as the map she chose seemingly casually, all indicate that the other party's purpose is far more than just wanting to buy a map in this small shop.

After all, if she wanted to, she could just take the map away openly without attracting her attention.

The old man's vigilance was raised to the extreme, and he looked cautiously at the black-robed woman who walked towards him and gently placed the map on the table.

"Sir, what does this mean?"

Hun Ruoruo looked at the old man in surprise, then said as a matter of course, "Buy a map? Aren't you a map seller? How could you ask such a stupid question? No wonder no one wants to come to your shop."

"."

The old man was speechless for a moment, choked by the other party's impeccable words and full of questions.

"Here, I want this, how much do you want it for?"

Hun Ruoruo's tone also became a little impatient, as if she didn't want to talk any more with this person who had no business acumen.

"Sorry, this picture is not for sale!"

As he was speaking, the old man suddenly stretched out his hand, which was accompanied by the fluctuation of fighting spirit, and grabbed the map placed on the table.

After realizing that the other party failed to stop him in time, the old man suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and his expression relaxed a little.

He snorted coldly and said, "Little girl, although I don't know where you come from, you'd better be careful with your words and actions in my territory. If you retreat, I can pretend that what happened today never happened."

Just now, in a hurry, he used the strength equivalent to that of a great fighting master, with the purpose of testing the strength of the black-robed woman in front of him.

The other party's failure to respond in time undoubtedly made the old man feel relieved.

Even if the concealment method is extremely sophisticated, if he does not have the strength to match it, he will naturally not be afraid and will just treat the other party as a young lady from a big force.

However, although he was not afraid, he was not willing to be his enemy.

You know, even with his experience, a force that can use such covert means is unheard of. If possible, he does not want to make enemies with such a force. He does not want to experience the consequences of stirring up a hornet's nest.

But just when he had let down his guard a little, the black-robed girl in front of him burst into laughter, sighed with some sadness, and her tender white hands fluttered in front of him, and somehow she held the map in her hands again.

"They say big stores bully their customers. It's really chilling that this old man, who runs such a small store, can actually rob customers."

The old man's face froze, and he subconsciously looked at his hand, only to see that the map he had been holding tightly had unexpectedly turned into a poisonous scorpion that could be seen everywhere in the desert!
The poisonous scorpion kept struggling in the old man's hands, and from time to time it stretched out its sharp spikes to pierce the old man's dry skin. Under the cover of fighting spirit, it made a crisp clanging sound. Although it was obviously unharmed, it made the old man feel terrified as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"You, you!" Hun Ruoruo raised the map in her hand and said with a smile, "The old man's actions really scared me. I guess you wouldn't mind if he used some tricks?"

A powerful Douhuang-level warrior was being toyed with by a little girl who came from nowhere. The old man's anger had reached an extreme level at this moment.

He crushed the poisonous scorpion to death in his hand, and light green juice spurted out, then turned into condensed ice cones, and a light ice mist diffused, which looked extremely gorgeous.

The icy fighting spirit swept through the entire store in an instant, and the powerful fighting spirit gust of wind lifted up the drawings in the sky like a whirlwind.

"I told you, this map is not for sale. If you really intend to take it away by force, then even if you are quite powerful, you will definitely have to pay a heavy price. Don't blame me for bullying the weak."

The old man stood proudly in the center, his white hair moving without wind. His fighting spirit, as cold as frost, lingered around him, giving him a faint sense of ethereality.

Inside the shop, icy fighting spirit quickly spread, completely blocking the light coming from the door, and even the vision became extremely blurry.

"Wow, you're worthy of being the Ice Emperor! What a beautiful effect! But, if you want to exude your aura, then just exude it. Why did you have to crush the scorpion to death?"

Looking at the ice flowers falling from the sky, Hun Ruoruo was amazed. She took out a few scorpions from somewhere and compared them by their tails.
"That was the one with the biggest tail I ever caught. It's really excessive."

"You know my identity?!"

Seeing that his long-planned killer move was praised as "beautiful" by the other party, the Ice Emperor's old face twitched, and his aura weakened by three points. He said in disbelief.

The icy aura that enveloped the entire store was certainly not aimless, but had an effect that gave him absolute control: suppressing the elements.

In an icy aura, only ice-attributed fighting spirit can be fully exerted. Fighting spirit of other attributes will be greatly affected by the fading of elements in the air, and perhaps even 80% of one's strength cannot be exerted.

Only a Dou Wang-level warrior can ignore it.
"Could this little girl be a Dou Wang strongman?" A somewhat frightened thought flashed through the old man's mind. Coupled with the extremely terrifying transcendent force behind her, he was completely unable to remain calm.

His skinny palms tightened and loosened, and then tightened again. After a moment of silence, his momentum gradually weakened and finally dissipated.

The old man sighed wearily, "Little girl, now that you know my identity, it's useless for me to hide it. I really can't afford to offend you. Take the map."

After saying this, he waved his hand dejectedly and was about to turn around and leave, but he found that the black-robed woman in front of him suddenly reached out and took off the brim of her hat, revealing her flawless face hidden within.

Seeing this scene, the old man's eyes flashed with surprise, but it did not cause any big waves. He just said lightly: "What else?"

How could he, an old man on his deathbed, be interested in this yellow-haired girl, no matter how pretty she was?
No, I still stole his things.

What he feared and hated the most in his life were these overly beautiful women, who were exactly like the poisonous scorpion.

However, what he had never expected was that after revealing her appearance, the mysterious girl did not push any excessive demands. Instead, she complained in a rather annoyed tone, scolding him:

"You've been running this shop for decades, and you don't even have this level of professionalism. The customer was just chatting with you, but you were all thinking about fighting. Did I ever say I wouldn't pay?"

"And your icy fighting spirit looks incredibly powerful, but in reality, it only managed to crush the little scorpion I caught. You said you didn't want to sell anything, but you even killed my pet. I haven't even asked you for compensation yet, and yet you're the first to act like you're aggrieved."

"This"

Listening to the girl's scolding in amazement, the old man's face turned pale and then red, and he couldn't find any words to refute.

He, the mighty Ice Emperor, was actually scolded by a little girl and felt ashamed.
It really is getting more and more alive.
