Inner Destroyer

　It seems that "Rip Man" is in a bad mood today.

　His murderous intent was like a sharp knife pointed at her heart, causing cold sweat to break out on her forehead and even her makeup to smudge.

　How to do?

　She knew very well that if she was caught by the "Rip Man", it would definitely not be as simple as being kicked out. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind -

　She had to take a gamble.

　"Wait a minute, the famous Rip Man—"

　The voodoo hottie chuckled, holding the book in her left hand and gesturing to the surrounding bookshelves with her right hand.

　"This is a library, right? There are so many valuable books here. You're not planning to fight me here, are you? No way—"

　"If the library is destroyed, not only you, but also the old president of the 'association' will be held accountable!"

　She was holding a book in one hand and covering her mouth with the other, and she was still laughing, as if she was very confident in what she said.

　"How about you just pretend you didn't see me today, and no one else has to deal with this unnecessary matter?"

　good question.

　What a classic threat, what a way to take the treasure hostage.

　Qi Xing didn't even bother to retort. He only had one way to deal with threats.

　All these inappropriate and stupid actions, all the nonsense - in Qi Xing's eyes, she had lost the most basic human rights.

　By the time the voodoo hottie came to her senses, a powerful and fierce punch like a storm was already coming at her head and she had no way to avoid it!

　One punch!

　Qi Xing tore off her left hand and snatched the book away!

　Remarks on the launch meow——

　It’s on the shelves——The cat is on the shelves again——

　This time it's a cat with butter on its back——

　(Hang yourself on the rack, put on the label, and start spinning)

　It has been updated once this morning, so the next update will be the chapter that is put on the shelves!

　The cat will try to update it today--

　This book, well... it's the craziest thing I've ever written. It has both good and bad sides, I guess.

　The art of butter is profound and extensive. From fate to dies, many familiar things were originally butter.

　From superheroes, to magical girls, to knights, to sentai, to Ultraman, to giant robots, to Cthulhu, to cyberpunk, to ninjas, to shrine maidens, to sword and sorcery fantasy - in short, there is no element in the world that cannot be more or less associated with hentai.

　Even the powerful Hong Kong comics have some ██ links to a certain extent!

　(And Hong Kong comics also like to make the strong be defeated by the minotaur, which is very bad!)

　But on the other hand, meow, as long as you take off the crazy yellow fur, the core of everything can still be serious storytelling.

　For example, Cat’s favorite things are the relationship between individuals and the world, ancient myths and modern society, and falling in love with cute girls...and this time I want to write about a harem!

　And so on!

　Then next is the readers’ feedback section!

　Many people complained about the combat being lacking in intensity, but I'm working on it! Meow! I'll work even harder!

　Then, this book is essentially a comedy, so how could the protagonist be so awesome? Don't be so nervous, everyone, stay mentally healthy, meow——

　Constantly worrying about being bullied is bad for your mental health. The cat said it seriously! Minotaur is a bad civilization!

　Dear readers, repeat.after.me! The Tauren are a bad civilization!

　So let’s stop here!

　Next, the cat has to go code!

　Everyone should subscribe——

　032: The Day of Belly-Banging Hottie Bitch

　Ava Sakura LaFleur, nicknamed "Sakura Girl", is of Japanese and African descent and is only 19 years old.

　But she is already a high-ranking official in the "Black Spartacus" organization and one of the Four Heavenly Kings.

　Some people might be wondering after hearing this – what the hell is this half-black, half-Japanese hottie voodoo sorcerer? How can someone sew something like this?

　However, in reality, there is indeed such a thing as this - but let's not talk about it for now.

　Because Ava "Sakura Girl" is facing the biggest life crisis in history!

　Last week, due to the organization's plan and the leader's orders, she had prepared to come to Castel Sant'Angelo to help the leader steal the book. With her genius and powerful magic, the witch hunter security of the Association had no chance of stopping her.

　This task should have been easy.

　Look at her now; she's already successfully sneaked into the underground library and knocked out four or five security guards. If she had the time, she'd definitely pierce their noses or their tongues, take some photos and post them online to show off, but today wasn't the right time.

　Then she ran into "Rip Man" who was coming around the corner.

　"Rip Man"!? Why is "Rip Man" here!?

　But calm down! Oh, stay calm, Ava! She said to herself in her heart - "Rip Man" is neither invincible nor flawless!

　Isn't he the Association's trump card? So, threatening him with a library full of artifacts and ancient books should automatically break him, right?

　Anyway, these fools are hypocritical heroes of the "right way"

　It's all like this!

　"This is a library, right? There are so many valuable books here. You're not planning on fighting me here, are you? No way?"

　"If the library is destroyed, not only you, but also the old president of the 'association' will be held accountable!"

　I think everyone knows what happened next.

　Qi Xing never—never—heeded any such threats, because his knowledge of game theory told him to do so.

　It's more because he's unhappy.

　Before Voodoo Hottie could finish her nonsense, he had already taken a step forward.

　That step was as heavy as thunder, causing the entire castle to tremble slightly under his feet and the dust between the bookshelves to be stirred up.

　That step made his figure suddenly disappear.

　——It’s not disappearing, but it’s so fast that mortals’ dynamic vision cannot see it!

　At the critical moment, Ava, known as "Sakura Girl," slashed the air with the tips of her gleaming nails. From her fingers flowed a shimmering, poisonous powder, twisting and turning in mid-air, transforming into a curse. The purple-black mist coiled like a venomous snake, carrying the aura of death and decay as it pounced upon "Rip Man."

　—but it couldn't get close at all.

　The air vibrated and lightning flashed.

　The Thunderfire Heavenly Robe swished away the insignificant stone like a hurricane. The cursed magic actually bounced back the way it had come. Sakura Girl's pupils shrank, and she jerked sideways, barely avoiding the spell. But her twintails were still lifted by the aftermath, and their strands instantly exploded like flags whipped by the wind.

　— Are you kidding me?! Are you kidding me?!

　The words only lingered in her mind before she could even open her mouth. A fierce and powerful fist, now unavoidable, grabbed her left hand, instantly ripping through the bones and flesh, and snatching the book from her!

　"Ahhh?!"

　Ignoring the other party's screams, Qi Xing urged the thunder to instantly block and burn every drop of blood spurting out of her severed hand, and then moved back to his original position to avoid dirtying the book.

　The voodoo chick's frantic screams, her painful writhings, or the sliver of blood from the Four Heavenly Kings of the Dark Organization hadn't even crossed Qi Xing's radar. He hadn't considered her a rival, only a bookshelf, his eyes fixed on the books he was trying to grab.

　It took a full two seconds for the screaming Sakura girl to finally realize this fact.

　Suddenly, it wasn't the excruciating pain—she'd endured worse injuries, more vicious beatings—but the sheer humiliation of being completely ignored. This made the resentment and anger bite fiercely in her heart like a venomous snake, suffocating until it felt like it was about to explode. She wished she could dig the nails of her remaining hand into the bone, marking this humiliation.

　Having wandered the streets since childhood, Ava "Sakura" has left countless "legends" worth boasting about in the Caribbean black market and voodoo circles. Her arrogance and self-confidence are not just due to her personality, but because she has actually done great things, enough to make her stand tall and boast in front of her peers.

　She once hosted a taboo voodoo ritual at the underground New Orleans club "Red Veil." Using alcohol, drugs, and terrifying spells, she transformed the entire orgy into a "living altar of sacrifice." Guests were driven into a collective frenzy, engaging in acts inappropriate for children. This madness caused illusions and reality to intertwine, and some were even forcibly drawn into the spirit world, their souls unable to return.

　However, she escaped unscathed from the chaos, leaving behind countless rumors, making that night a legend in the dark world.

　A Miami mafia boss had scorned her voodoo skills, even publicly mocking her as a mere "little girl playing with dolls." Seven days later, he died. There were no gunshot wounds, no poison, no external injuries. Even his face lingered with a look of terror, as if he had witnessed something incomprehensible. All medical tests had failed to provide a plausible explanation, sending the gang into a state of panic.

　She once sparked a civil war within a Haitian voodoo gang, manipulating its leaders through spells and suggestion. Within five days, she had the entire gang operating to her will, even forcing members to sacrifice their lives to fulfill her sinister orders.

　She is not a low-class street magician, she is a real tough character who has lived, fought and won in the underworld.

　What do you think I am? Air?

　She is not a nobody, not someone who can be brushed off easily - she must make "Rip Man" pay the price and let him know the consequences of underestimating her!

　Elaine also saw this scene.

　She stood behind Qi Xing and was more familiar with him, so she saw more, but because of this, she was more afraid.

　Qi Xing didn't even glance at the voodoo chick, but that didn't mean he had never looked at her. On the contrary, before he made his move, he took a good look at her.

　(I'm afraid, let's wake him up...)

　Elaine thought fearfully in his heart, the moment he saw the security guards lying on the ground next to the voodoo hottie with a book in his hand, he judged and convicted her in his mind, decided on the punishment she should be given, and then executed it.

　So he doesn't need to adjust the strength, he just needs to pursue the spirit of strict law enforcement.

　——Although Qi Xing had given people this feeling before, since the cruise ship incident, his determination as a judge and punisher has obviously become more resolute.

　In an instant, Elaine seemed to have glimpsed a part of the dark will in Qi Xing's heart.

　But one thing is one thing. Although it was horrible, when Elaine saw the voodoo hottie struggling and twisting on the ground, trying to escape, she immediately

　He shouted, "Mr. Qi! Catch her! She shouldn't be here at all. And, voodoo?!"

　She and Qi Xing had just witnessed a strange voodoo curse the previous night. How could Rome have so many skilled voodoo practitioners? How could this be such a coincidence?

　So Qi Xing turned around and took a second look at the hot girl.

　Voodoo Hottie smiled with a crooked mouth.

　"You think... Hehehe - Uncle, you don't think you can defeat me by brute force, do you?"

　She laughed and stuck out her tongue, then used her (only remaining) right fingernail to fiddle with the tongue ring.

　Qi Xing had never really understood why some people would get pierced or pierced. Did they find it erotic? He simply couldn't comprehend this fetish. If anyone was willing to explain it, he'd be happy to hear it.

　But in an instant, he discovered that the left wrist of the hot girl, whom he had just pulled off, suddenly turned a strange purple-blue color, the blood vessels under the skin squirmed like earthworms, and the palm of her hand expanded rapidly like a balloon - because she also had a ring on her left hand.

　Resonance spell?

　Voodoo Hottie was already smirking.

　The next moment, her left hand, torn off by Qi Xing, would explode. Rotting flesh and blood, mixed with pitch-black bone fragments, would scatter in all directions, each fragment bursting into a screaming, vengeful spirit. Perhaps the invincible "Rip Man" would be fine, but what about the little nun behind him?

　What about this extremely fragile ancient book?

　She wins!

　——However, Qi Xing just raised one hand calmly.

　The black and white yin and yang energies immediately began to swirl. A deep, dark, white, chaotic hole, like an incredibly heavy iron cage, began to suppress the surging curse. The restless flesh was forcibly imprisoned by the invisible true energy, forced back into the severed hand, struggling like a venomous snake with its throat strangled.

　As Qi Xing's palm slowly pressed down, the Tai Chi diagram of Yin and Yang tightened in circles, completely sealing the curse's power. The knuckles of the severed hand creaked under the extreme pressure, their joints twisting and breaking. Then, like a flame extinguished, they were completely extinguished.

　Everything returned to calm, leaving only the lifeless, withered black hand that had been suppressed and twisted, like a long-dead mummy, no longer posing any threat.

　This is actually the most orthodox "forbidden method" of Taoism - the method of Qi restraint. It is considered to be one of the few famous orthodox methods that Qi Xing is proficient in besides thunder method. However, its specific allusions and principles will be discussed later. Anyway, the focus now is,

　“…” Voodoo Hottie finally didn’t know what to say.

　She finally understood that her magic and experience, which she was so proud of, were nothing but child's play in front of the "strongest man on earth."

　Perhaps some people are really only worthy of being noticed twice by "Rap Man".

　The next second, before she could even scream, a fist as strong as copper and iron rammed into her abdomen.

　"Uh--"

　The violent impact caused her to arch like a shrimp, her eyes widening and her mouth hanging open, nearly vomiting her internal organs, yet no sound came out. The air was completely knocked out by the punch, and her internal organs felt like they were completely churned up, even her thoughts were disconnected.
