During this time, Jing Li took out three crossbow bolts and fired them all at the last man in black.

Fortunately, she had a crossbow instead of a bow, as crossbow bolts are obviously more powerful than bows.

The three men in black who had been hit by crossbow bolts in the back fell to the ground, while the men in black in front reacted and suddenly turned around to fire in the direction where Jing Li was.

Jing Li had already moved to another location after firing three crossbow bolts.

Xue Xuran, who was hiding not far away, also reacted and, despite the pain in his arm, took out his hunting rifle to take down another enemy for Jing Li.

Jing Li seized the opportunity and sprang forward as he fired the bullet, her butterfly knife, which she always carried, piercing the heart of the black-clad man closest to her.

At the same time, she used the other person's body as a shield to take the bullets fired by others, while pushing the man in black forward.

As the dead man in black fell to the ground, she kicked the gun out of the man in black's hand on the left, grabbed the gun-wielding hand of the enemy on the right, and without hesitation pulled the trigger on the other two.

Then, with an over-the-shoulder throw, she took down the man in black who was using her weapon. As he fell to the ground, she straddled him, grabbed his head with both hands, and pulled hard.

With a soft 'click', the other person stopped breathing completely.

In just over ten minutes, Jing Li successfully dealt with all the men in black who had attacked her.

Xue Xuran dared not relax for a moment. Supporting his injured arm, he examined the bodies of the men in black one by one. Almost all of them had been shot in vital areas, which showed Jing Li's ruthlessness and power.

He was utterly shocked. Was she... really just an ordinary person?!

What ordinary person could take down these professional assassins in such a short time without batting an eye?

Are you alright?

Deliberately ignoring the surprise in Xue Xuran's eyes, Jing Li asked with concern.

"It's okay, we can get through this. We need to meet up with Brother Mo and the others as soon as possible..."

Excessive blood loss caused Xue Xuran to feel dizzy and his body to sway, but he still forced himself to stay upright, not wanting Jing Li to worry.

"Let's find a place to hide first, and wait for them to come looking for us."

Jing Li quickly made a decision; running around aimlessly without knowing if there were still assassins was clearly not a wise move.

If nothing unexpected happens, something must have happened to Fei Mo as well, but she has faith in him and believes he can handle it.

The most urgent task is to find a place to hide and treat Xue Xuran's injuries. Fei Mo will definitely come to rescue them once he is out of danger.

"There's a cave nearby, let's go there first!"

Xue Xuran also knew that if Jing Li took him, who was a burden, on the road, they would be doomed if they encountered assassins again, so he dared not insist any longer.

Fortunately, he was familiar with the area, so finding a place to hide wouldn't be a problem.

Before leaving, Jing Li first used bandages to temporarily treat Xue Xuran's wounds to prevent the enemy from finding them by leaving traces of bleeding.

The cave wasn't far from them; it took about ten minutes to walk there. The entrance was fairly well hidden, and with a little more work, the enemy would have a hard time spotting anything.

The entrance to the cave is only about half a person's height, and adults have to bend over to get in. Once inside, it's a completely different world, with a large space and signs that someone has been there.

The fire that had been lit, and the household items that were still intact and covered with a tarpaulin.

“We used to occasionally stay overnight in the cave, since the mountains and forests are not safe.”

Seeing Jing Li's confusion, Xue Xuran explained, slightly out of breath.
