Wang Qiang, who was closest to the scene of the tragedy, stared in disbelief. His eyes were wide open, as if they were about to pop out, and his mouth was agape, big enough to fit several eggs.
He had witnessed Li Quan's abilities firsthand; with a casual wave of his hand, he could knock this eight-foot-tall strong man to the ground, coughing up blood and unable to get up. Now, he could just grab this little cutie and have him step on his head and bounce around on his back...
Moreover, it seemed like everything happened in the blink of an eye, and he didn't even see clearly what happened!
As for the other men who were about to run over, they stopped in their tracks at some point. They held their hammers, axes, and cleavers high, but they were all dumbfounded, their mouths agape and their jaws about to drop in shock.
"Awooo! Awooo!"
"Li Quan! Ouch! You, you, you stay away! Li Quan! Li Quan! Come quickly and save this poor man! Ouch! Li—"
In an instant, the once noisy village entrance was left with only the Taoist's miserable howls and a fierce little tiger, howling in a cute but fierce voice, just like its little master!
Luo called out for a long time, but Li Quan didn't respond. When he turned around, the words he was about to say immediately fell back into his stomach in shock.
Li Quan had long since disappeared; all he saw was a little chubby baby bouncing happily in front of him, with bright, dark eyes and adorable dimples...
Upon closer inspection, she was actually bouncing happily on Li Quan's body!
"Ahh!"
Before the disheveled Taoist could even be shocked, he was overwhelmed by a sharp pain in his thigh and could no longer care about anything else. He screamed in agony as he frantically tried to pry at the little tiger that was biting him.
Immediately afterwards, several bloody claw marks appeared on his hands.
"Aaaaah—"
The pain made him howl like a wolf.
Watching the two men in their disheveled and miserable state from the shadows, Huo Chengche felt a pang of sympathy for them. To end up in such a sorry state after kidnapping a child, he wondered what kind of bad luck they had suffered in their past lives.
He patted Huang Qiang, who was standing there dumbfounded, and smiled gently, "I already said, there's nothing to worry about."
Huang Qiang turned his head blankly, shook his head in a daze, and said seriously, "Immortal, I think we still need to worry. Are those two... alright?"
Huo Chengche was taken aback, then pinched the bridge of his nose, smiled helplessly, and said lightly, "It's alright, they're both tough. Otherwise, the person behind them wouldn't have chosen them."
"Oh, I see." Huang Qiang suddenly realized and nodded earnestly in agreement.
Huo Chengche curled his thin lips into a playful smile as he looked at the two disheveled people, but soon, the ease on his face was replaced by a look of displeasure.
Huang Qiang felt the temperature around him drop suddenly, making him shiver. He turned his head and saw the boy's sharp and cold profile, which gave him a feeling that a storm was about to break.
He followed Huo Chengche's gaze and saw Li Quan, who was being bounced around on the baby's back. Although his tongue was almost squeezed out, he still managed to reach his hand into his pocket with difficulty.
Huo Chengche narrowed his eyes as he watched Li Quan's actions.
The next moment, taking advantage of the moment when the little baby jumped up, Li Quan suddenly pulled his hand out of his pocket, scattering a handful of medicine powder outwards, instantly filling the air with medicinal dust.
