Chapter 239: Chapter 235 Clash with Capricorn Chapter 239 -235 Clash with Capricorn “There’s another assassin!”
This was Capricorn’s first response.
Capricorn was now very confused, she didn’t understand, wasn’t this an assassination targeting Taotie?
Why are the assassins coming after me?
As Capricorn wondered, Tom, who was hiding in the tree, leaped down with a black Dagger in his hand, aimed to strike Capricorn’s fontanelle from above.
Taken aback, Capricorn hastily dodged.
At the same time, she quickly counterattacked, her whip making a crisp “snap” sound as it struck out toward the hand Tom held the knife with, from an eerie angle.
Tom spun around, avoiding Capricorn’s whip, and moved in again, determined to draw some of Capricorn’s blood.
Meanwhile, the katana of Hummingbird was unsheathed.
Slashing out obliquely, aimed at Capricorn.
Along with Tom, they attacked Capricorn from both sides, putting her between the hammer and the anvil.
Capricorn, pressed from front and back, saw that Tom was the strongest and focused on handling him, yet her arm was slashed by Hummingbird, not a deep wound, but it drew blood nonetheless.
Injured, Capricorn’s expression became crazed.
With a “clang”, she drew a Soft Sword from the handle of the whip, holding it in her hand.
Turned out Capricorn, who was adept with a whip, had her real trump card hidden within the whip: the Soft Sword.
“Who are you?”
Glancing at the wound on her arm, Capricorn asked coldly.
“The one who will kill you!”
Tom replied coldly.

The next second!
Tom’s figure flashed as he swung his knife again, aiming at Capricorn.
At the same time, Hummingbird moved as well.
The shiny katana swept toward Capricorn’s midsection.
“Hmph!”
“Damn it!”
Capricorn snorted coldly, throwing her whip like a Hidden Weapon toward Hummingbird, while the other hand’s Soft Sword made a “whoosh whoosh” sound, like a venomous snake hissing as it thrust toward Tom.
Tom used a Dagger, which was shorter in length, not a match for Capricorn, and the Soft Sword, as a Qimen weapon, was peculiar and unusual, confusing Tom somewhat.
For a moment, the fight became awkward for him.
A master of equal rank was now seemingly being subdued by Capricorn, continuously retreating.
Hummingbird flicked away the whip thrown by Capricorn and slashed again with the katana, easing the pressure Tom faced from Capricorn’s attack.
Hummingbird’s katana was fast, and with a “whoosh” sound, the Soft Sword in Capricorn’s hand pushed Tom back, then she flicked her wrist with a backhand stroke, the Soft Sword making a “whoosh whoosh” sound as it thrust at Hummingbird, precisely tapping on the edge of Hummingbird’s blade.
With a “clang” sound, the tip of the Soft Sword met the blade of Hummingbird’s katana, immediately sparking.
Capricorn flicked her wrist, and the tip of the Soft Sword bounced up.
Like a viper raising its head, it struck at Hummingbird.
Hummingbird immediately drew back his katana to evade the Soft Sword.
“Hmph!”
Capricorn snorted coldly, ready to chase.
Capricorn could tell that Hummingbird wasn’t as strong, ranking below her.
She prepared to take advantage of the momentum to finish off Hummingbird first.
And then concentrate on Tom, her equal.
With the trickery and deftness of the Soft Sword, she might even defeat Tom, or at least find an opportunity to retreat.
Capricorn’s calculations were clicking away precisely.
But these were her plans, which needed action.
And they required Tom’s cooperation.
Clearly, Tom wasn’t ready to cooperate.
Just as Capricorn was about to chase after Hummingbird, Tom charged again, slashing his black Dagger at Capricorn’s neck from behind.
Sensing the chill on her back, Capricorn cursed silently, abandoning the pursuit of Hummingbird to engage in combat with Tom.
Seeing Capricorn ignore him to fight Tom, Hummingbird shook his katana, adjusted his breathing, and charged at Capricorn with a slash.
Once again, he joined Tom in an attack from both sides.
This time, Tom’s assault was exceedingly fierce.
The black Dagger cut through the air ferociously.
No matter how she defended, Capricorn couldn’t shake off Tom’s pursuit.
Caught up with Tom, Capricorn had no time to deal with Hummingbird.
Could only keep dodging.
But there is no such thing as a thief being on guard for a thousand days, and the same goes for the struggle between offense and defense.
During another evasion, as Capricorn avoided Hummingbird’s katana…
Tom took the opportunity to strike, slicing across Capricorn’s thigh, leaving a trail of blood on her leg.
“Hmm…”
Capricorn grunted in pain; her leg instantly drenched in blood, her movements faltering.
But the crisis was upon her, and as she saw Tom turning his dagger to stab at her lower abdomen, Capricorn immediately shook her Soft Sword, stabbing at Tom’s face in an attempt to exchange wound for wound, forcing Tom to retreat.
Naturally, Tom wasn’t foolish enough to engage in a hard clash with Capricorn.
Playing such a game of exchanging injuries for the bravado of the common man.
Seeing Capricorn’s Soft Sword thrusting at him, and knowing his Dagger couldn’t match the attack range of the Soft Sword…
He immediately withdrew to avoid the sharp edge.
Hummingbird seized the opportunity to strike, while Capricorn was unable to turn back after her thrust; the katana, with a whistling force, hacked towards her back.
Feeling the attack from behind…
Capricorn inwardly cursed her luck, forced to dodge as best as she could.
Although Capricorn was quick, Hummingbird’s blade was not slow either, and it managed to leave another blood mark on her peach-shaped buttocks.
Had Capricorn not reacted and moved quickly…
It’s likely her peach-shaped buttocks would have been split into three.
It all happened in a flash, though complex to describe.
Just upon engaging, Capricorn had already suffered three slashes.
Capricorn turned around, using her Soft Sword to fend off Hummingbird.
She quickly widened the gap between herself, Hummingbird, and Tom.
Capricorn watched Tom and Hummingbird warily.
Gulping for air with heaving breaths.
Tom and Hummingbird exchanged looks, then split left and right.
Once again, they positioned themselves for a pincering attack on Capricorn.
It not only prevented Capricorn from escaping but also allowed them to surround her, making it impossible for her to defend against attacks from both sides.
“Who exactly are you?”
Looking at Tom and his comrade slowly closing in, Capricorn held her Soft Sword in front of her and asked in a deep voice.
Capricorn thought to herself that even if she were to die, she’d do so in the know; if she somehow managed to escape, she’d return with others to exterminate them.
“Ragnarok, Kui Mulang!”
Tom replied with a sneer.
Upon hearing Tom’s words, Hummingbird was momentarily taken aback.
“Kui Mulang?”
“A nice trick to divert disaster!”
Hummingbird muttered internally.
“Ragnarok, Hummingbird!”
Hummingbird indeed used her real name, but…
As of today, she belonged to Fang Xiaocao.
After today, Hummingbird of Ragnarok would be thoroughly dismissed from the ranks, and she wasn’t afraid of Capricorn finding her afterward.
After all…
Whether Capricorn could escape today was up to fate, with a ninety percent chance this woman would die here today.
Dead people can’t seek revenge.
Hummingbird queried herself; she had killed many.
Never had she seen any of them return from the dead to take their revenge on her.
“Fine, I’ll remember that!”
Capricorn said through gritted teeth.
The next second!
Capricorn turned and ran.
Seeing Capricorn start to flee, Tom was prepared.
With a flick of his hand, a metal ball flew towards Capricorn.
It rolled to a stop right by Capricorn’s feet.
Capricorn was taken aback, her expression changing dramatically in an instant.
