Chapter 210: The Tsundere's Special Attack~
"Isn't it a coincidence? Of all times, they had to come when Tohru and Kanna were here!" Li Muyang teased Nanako and Mimiko, who had just woken up, with a meaningful look. "Isn't this just asking for trouble?"
After catching up on sleep for a while, the two sisters returned to the coffee shop. They felt bad about letting Li Muyang watch the shop for them forever, since... they were the owners.
Old Li hasn't asked for his salary these past few days. Besides, the two sisters probably can't afford to pay Li Muyang's salary anyway.
To be fair, Genjiro was really unlucky. Whenever Thor and Kanna weren't around, Li Muyang would have to come up with a new plan. Even though he was quite strong now, he still had a headache dealing with these fearless little dragons. He had a pretty good impression of Genjiro, though.
The only person Li Muyang had a problem with regarding the Snake-Headed Eight Families was Tachibana Masamune.
He doesn't have the ability to scare people half to death with mere intimidation! Li Muyang at most possesses the power of a Qilin, and has little to do with the Dragon Clan!
There is some mutual influence, but it's not significant, and the deterrent effect might not be enough.
Li Muyang had already explained the situation to the Kagura sisters. Most people in the Snake-Headed Eight Family were, to be precise, almost all of them, unaware of what had happened to the two sisters. Even Tachibana Masamune, the mastermind behind it all, hadn't expected that someone would be so crazy as to want to kill the two sisters in order to lure Li Muyang back into the spotlight.
Of course, if the Snake-Headed Eight Families could defeat Li Muyang, Tachibana Masamune wouldn't mind this development. The problem is, he has no way to deal with Li Muyang!
Fortunately, his cautious nature allowed him to turn into a coward in time, preventing Li Muyang from finding him. Otherwise, he would have easily eliminated him! This is actually a good thing, as the mastermind behind the Snake Clan's troubles is dead, and Li Muyang will not be too suspicious. Unfortunately, this is just wishful thinking.
Several old spies in the shadows were the main instigators. Besides, they couldn't be brought to justice. It was one thing for Li Muyang to kill them, but if he were to wipe out the entire Sheqi family, the whole of Japan would be in turmoil. We're not afraid, but it hasn't reached the point where we're going to wipe out Japan yet! Out of consideration for our friends...
After all, Li Muyang had no evidence to prove that Tachibana Masamune had caused him any trouble! If he really rushed over and killed Tachibana Masamune, he would become an irreconcilable enemy with the Snake-Headed Eight Families. In particular, Li Muyang's only reason for killing Tachibana Masamune was simply because he didn't like him.
Although the reason of "having a grudge against him" is more difficult to resolve than "disliking him," it ultimately doesn't hold water!
Reasoning still needs to be done. Rules are easy to break but hard to rebuild. Li Muyang's bottom line is that on the chessboard, he will only launch a simple and brutal attack if the opponent breaks the rules first.
In other words, Tachibana Masamune himself was feeling guilty, and he was afraid that Li Muyang would try to kill him without any reason.
As for the Jiachang sisters, they were already quite satisfied with wiping out a group of old ghosts, because it was equivalent to eliminating them completely! Those involved could be said to be all dead!
The two of them barely paid attention to the matter of Tachibana Masamune and the Hebi-Hachi family, because Li Muyang had also explained that a large part of the reason for causing trouble for Tachibana Masamune was his own will.
To put it simply, the Kasaba sisters did not have any direct hatred towards Tachibana Masamune.
Who told that this despicable and cunning old codger to actually stay out of trouble this time, and just be an eyewitness? Besides, the Snake Clan is a behemoth in Japan. Even the entire sorcery world would be somewhat powerless against the Snake Clan, which monopolizes all walks of life.
The Kakaba sisters were quite sensible and didn't want Li Muyang to become an enemy of the Snake-Headed Eight Families because of their own affairs.
Now that Li Muyang has also kidnapped the little princess of the Snake Clan, it's technically a draw. Even if he wants to cause trouble again, he'll have to find a new reason.
If he were an outsider, Li Muyang could have infiltrated and eliminated Tachibana Masamune. Unfortunately, he was forced into the open, so this method had to be abandoned. In this situation, if anything happened to Tachibana Masamune, Li Muyang would be suspected!
In that case, Li Muyang will be seen as unreasonable and a tyrant who acts recklessly. No matter where you are in modern society, you can't welcome a tyrant!
The trouble will only get worse as it unfolds!
"You humans have such complicated social relationships..." After listening to Li Muyang's explanation in detail, Thor rubbed his temples with a pained expression. It was just too complicated!
If it were the dragons, they would have already decided to fight!
Li Muyang chuckled: "So you see... if we really followed the law of the jungle, humanity wouldn't have formed the society we have today. It would be too destructive to sustainable development and would completely stifle social development, leading to stagnation."
"Being in this society, I must abide by certain rules. This is not only for my own sake but also for the sake of others. The purpose of rules is to restrain the strong and protect the weak, which is a manifestation of social progress. This is a good thing! Otherwise, I wouldn't feel comfortable letting Nanako and Mimiko continue to stay in this world."
Looking at the group of special individuals, Li Muyang chuckled and shrugged, saying, "To be honest, the main reason we're willing to stay in this world is because it's relatively peaceful and stable, isn't it? If this world were chaotic and disorderly, who among you could live a peaceful life here?"
Everyone fell into deep thought for a moment, then looked at the people they cared about beside them in tacit understanding... Oh, Pandi and Stolg exchanged a glance, then immediately turned their heads away in perfect unison and let out a soft hum.
However, judging from the little expressions of the two angel sisters, well, you can tell they were secretly pleased, but they were too proud to admit it.
She was still not used to this kind of emotional scene. Tamamo-no-Mae agreed with her boss's statement and was very satisfied with their current harmonious life. Li Muyang was petting Xiaobai, and after exchanging a smile with Bai Yuxiu, a new guest walked in.
This time, however, Li Muyang didn't need to greet the guests. When Nanako and Mimiko saw the guests, they greeted them, "Ayami-neechan, you're here. Is today the same as usual? Didn't your sister come today?"
"Hmm! Shiho still has work..." The newly arrived Ms. Yami exuded an aura of intellectual beauty. After looking around, she found that everyone in the store was a familiar face. The only new faces were Li Muyang and Bai Yuxiu.
Well, neither Li Muyang nor Bai Yuxiu had ever met this Miss Yamei before.
However, Miss Yamei had met Xiaobai before.
Just a few days ago, Li Muyang went out for a while. Nanako and Mimiko stayed at the shop, while Xiaobai was left to look after the shop.
therefore……
"Hehehe..." Miss Yamei approached Li Muyang, who was holding Xiaobai, and gave him an embarrassed smile: "Excuse me, are you Xiaobai's owner?"
Li Muyang blinked: "What... is wrong?"
Miss Yamei quickly waved her hand and explained, "It's nothing... I just thought this little fox was so cute last time, so I wanted to buy it a little gift..."
As she spoke, Miss Yamei took out a box, and Xiaobai, seemingly aware of something, stared at it intently.
Li Muyang took the box with a wry smile and thanked him, saying, "Thank you, it didn't cause you any trouble before, did it?"
Miss Yamei smiled happily: "No way! Who wouldn't love such an adorable little white fox?"
Xiaobai (￣へ￣): My brother's classmate!
Yes, I'm talking about you! Wang Yifei!
I like to eat... I guess you could call it liking? I guess so...
Seeing Xiaobai fiddling with the packaging box, Li Muyang opened it with a doting smile to see if the contents were valuable. If they were, he would have to pay for them; he couldn't let this elegant young lady spend money...
Uh……
Upon seeing what was inside, Li Muyang fell into deep thought... This thing wasn't particularly valuable, but would Xiaobai really like it?
Well, watching Little White happily carrying this thing around on the ground, even abandoning Li Muyang, looking so engrossed in it, in a short while, even his expression became dazed and confused!
This left Lao Li and everyone else completely dumbfounded.
No… Little White! Wake up! Be conscious! You are a fox! A noble nine-tailed white fox!
Why would someone be interested in catnip toys?
Seeing that Xiaobai liked it very much, Miss Yamei couldn't help but smile happily and clapped her hands, saying, "I was right! It seems that I guessed correctly last time!"
What's going on?
Last time Miss Yamei came here, Xiaobai was very affectionate towards her, constantly rubbing against her. At first, Miss Yamei didn't realize anything, but after going back home, she suddenly remembered that when she was examining a cat toy that her colleague had bought, her colleague had accidentally spilled a bottle of catnip on her.
"...At first I couldn't quite believe it, after all, Xiaobai is a fox, how could she react to catnip? Now it seems I wasn't mistaken!" Miss Yamei explained with a bright smile.
Li Muyang was speechless and looked at Xiaobai, who was completely absorbed in catnip, with disbelief. "Oh no! Xiaobai, how did you get catnip?! Do you know what happens to cats that get catnip?! And... you're a fox!"
Thinking of this, Li Muyang silently took out a bottle of catnip from the gift box, held it out to Tamamo-no-Mae, and said, "Little Tamamo? Here, try it?"
Seeing this, Tamamo-no-Mae's lips twitched violently, and she gritted her teeth as she retorted, "Young Master... I'm a fox... not a cat!"
Li Muyang said in a serious tone: "No need to suppress your nature~ Come on~ give it a try~"
Tamamo's expressionless face revealed a hint of disdain before she switched back to her usual gentle smile and silently put the lid back on.
Clearly, this thing has no effect on Tamamo-no-Mae.
Bai Yuxiu covered her mouth and chuckled, while Xiao Bai on the ground remained completely absorbed in the moment. Come on, let's have some fun!
So why did Xiaobai react? Aren't foxes canines? Isn't catnip supposed to be effective against cats?
