Chapter 320 Chapter 320 Shi Ling
"..." Nancy was of course too smart to reply to this rhetorical statement made by our bored gamer.
"Well hello there, beautiful! I'm flattered that somebody finally remembered me today." Clark made his way back to whence he came.
And it was nice to note that someone very enticing indeed has awaited his tracks deeper into this gambling den.
'So she is the reason why nothing would dare make trouble in this mixture of human filth and glory.' Our good gamer realized in the end.
It was quite obvious that even the drunken men that threw lewd gazes at the lovely young servant girls kept themselves in check at this time.
There was really a revered cultivator in their midst.
'Check her out for me, Nancy.' Clark instructed in silence.
"Affirmative, host.' The system replied eagerly.
"DING!"
Name: Shi Ling
Cultivation: Innate Realm 5th Stage (downgraded to 3rd Stage of Martial Realm)
Status: Poisoned
'So that's why this woman chooses to stay in this backwater land where even the gods refuse to pee.'
'SIGH!'
'She is in hiding.' Clark smiled at the leverage that she got against the charming cultivator in his front. To know that Shi Ling was also pretty gorgeous was an added bonus in his quest tonight.
"You have made a ruckus earlier today, Master Clark. Only a fool would mistake you for somebody else." Shi Ling said after our bored gamer arrived before her.
This was the limit of his proficiency at the moment.
'Hmmm... I should learn some combat techniques later on.' Clark decided while the battle was still ongoing.
It was a surprise to see that there was no collateral damage in this battle whatsoever.
No chairs were upturned and even the guests of the place were unharmed all in all. Shi Ling and Clark both knew how to confine their fight in the tiniest bit of space.
"Let me end this, assassin." Shi Ling whispered in hate. She thought that our bored gamer was nothing but a paid killer that was after her head in this town.
One should know that she never used the name Shi Ling in her stay in Shimmerwood. Not once. So this weird man could only be an assailant that was commissioned by her enemy.
"FLASH!" A blinding light appeared once before it convalesced onto the long sharp surface of a sword.
Shi Ling's weapon looked deadly enough and from it, Clark could feel the threat of his imminent death in those blades.
'FUCK ME! Why are women so fast to conclude in all things?' Our bored gamer sighed deeply as she gazed at the violent woman nearby.
Luckily enough, Clark knew that it was time to put an end to this play. If he took a few breaths more of inaction, he would no doubt grace the floors with his rolling head in the aftermath.
It was easy to speculate that the weapon in Shi Ling's hand was a graded weapon that would fit the hands of innate cultivators best.
As a mere 7th Stage Martial Realm newbie, he has no hope to challenge this weapon and its owner at this time.
"Kill me and you will have a slow death in this god forsaken town, Shi Ling."
"But if you listen to my words, then I would have let you know that I have the cure to the poison that afflicts you." Clark said his piece and stood his ground.
"SLASH!" Unfortunately, Shi Ling seemed deaf to it all. She dropped a merciless strike using her sword and it landed at the neck of our bored gamer. It drew blood. A droplet and no more.
"You have one chance to prove your claim. If you dare lie to me then I could always kill you at that time." Shi Ling threatened in a grave voice.

Thirty minutes later and a woman could be seen blushing in nudity.
