That led to what I heard later.
Having learned everything, Li Ning no longer hesitated and relayed what the three had said to Qiu Ling'er.
Looking at Qiu Ling'er's slightly furrowed brows, Li Ning cautiously said:
"Miss Qiu, that's all they have to say. Do you wish to stay here?"
Those people were clearly after her, which led to what we heard later.
Having learned everything, Li Ning no longer hesitated and relayed what the three had said to Qiu Ling'er.
Looking at Qiu Ling'er's slightly furrowed brows, Li Ning cautiously said:
"Miss Qiu, that's all they have to say. Do you wish to stay here?"
Those people were clearly after her; if she continued to stay, she would likely be in danger.
Li Ning was also worried, after all, Qiu Ling'er was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, how could she withstand such a storm? At this moment, he suddenly forgot the woman's ruthlessness and decisiveness.
Qiu Ling'er remained silent for a long time before finally looking up at Li Ning and saying calmly:
"You should go back first! I want to stay here and have some peace and quiet."
Upon hearing this, Li Ning nodded and then turned to leave.
After Li Ning left, Qiu Ling'er slowly closed her eyes, seemingly lost in some kind of memory, her expression somewhat pained.
After a long while, Qiu Ling'er opened her eyes. Her complexion had returned to normal, but she looked extremely cold.
Qiu Ling'er looked into the distance again, her eyes resolute.
Little did he know that Li Ning had not gone far at all, but was hiding to the side, quietly observing Qiu Ling'er's actions. Looking at Qiu Ling'er's resolute and cold back, he felt a touch in his heart, a feeling he had never experienced before. Li Ning felt that something soft was quietly changing deep inside him.
In his memory, Qiu Ling'er had never shown a sad expression. Her face was always indifferent, as if nothing in the world was related to her, as if nothing in the world could arouse her interest. Her heart was always empty, as if nothing could attract her attention.
But now Li Ning saw her sadness. Li Ning knew that she must be very sad and needed comfort, and a feeling of heartache welled up in his heart.
This look of heartache was the first time Li Ning had ever felt for a woman, and although it only lasted for a moment, Li Ning clearly caught it.
Qiu Ling'er felt Li Ning's gaze and knew that Li Ning had not left. She couldn't help but chuckle, seemingly mocking herself for shedding tears in front of a strange man.
Let's go.
Qiu Ling'er glanced at Li Ning. She felt Li Ning's gaze and knew that he had not left. She couldn't help but chuckle, seemingly mocking herself for shedding tears in front of a strange man.
Let's go.
Qiu Ling'er glanced at Li Ning, then ignored him and walked straight ahead. Qiu Ling'er's reaction made Li Ning somewhat embarrassed, as he had felt guilty seeing her cry earlier. However, Li Ning only frowned slightly before following Qiu Ling'er. The two didn't say anything more and walked silently forward.
"Miss Qiu, why don't you kill them?"
Li Ning asked with some confusion.
Now that we know their intentions, why not nip them in the bud?
Hearing Li Ning's words, Qiu Ling'er snorted coldly:
"How could I not know what they meant? They're not making a move now just to lure out the people behind them."
"Things are not that simple. They have been chasing me for years, and what has come out now are nothing more than small fry."
Qiu Ling'er's answer surprised Li Ning, but thinking about it, it made sense. If the other party had been able to track her for so many years, how could they only have a few small fry? Li Ning didn't ask any further questions.
The two continued forward, and before long, many figures suddenly appeared ahead. Qiu Ling'er also stopped to observe the situation ahead.
These people were dressed the same as the previous men in black, and seemed to be the ones who had been tracking them. However, they noticed that there were also a few people wearing white brocade robes among them.
"It's the Brocade Robe Sect."
When Qiu Ling'er saw clearly what these people were dressed like, she was secretly shocked. She never expected that the Brocade Robe Sect would track them down to this place...
"Oh no, we need to get out of here quickly."
Qiu Ling'er's face turned serious. These people were all experts from the Brocade Robe Sect. It wasn't that she couldn't defeat them, but rather that there was no need to.
The Brocade Robe Sect is different from ordinary assassins. Their assassins are rigorously trained and extremely lethal. They are also spiritual cultivators, so their strength is much greater than that of ordinary assassins. If a real fight breaks out, Qiu Ling'er will not gain any advantage.
"Let's go!"
After saying that, Qiu Ling'er ran towards another road; she didn't want to be surrounded and attacked by these people...
The two had only run a short distance when they heard shouts of battle coming from ahead, so they stopped.
"Who are they fighting?"
After running for a while, Qiu Ling'er suddenly stopped, looked at the surrounded figure, and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
Weren't the Jinpao Sect people here to kill me? Why are they fighting with someone else?
Zero, however, looked like he had a headache.
He didn't know why he ended up in this place after coming out of the spatial passage.
There was a group of people standing outside...
Moreover, they were all men, dressed in black, with swords at their waists, radiating a strong killing intent that made Ling feel a sense of dread.
His intuition told him that they were looking at him unfriendly, as if he had caught them doing something wrong...
"Um... I was just passing by... You guys continue..."
Zero smiled somewhat awkwardly as he spoke.
"Just passing by?! Since you're just passing by, then leave your lives behind!" one of the men in black said coldly, while thrusting his sword forward.
"careful!"
Qiu Ling'er saw the sword heading straight for Ling and immediately exclaimed in alarm, but it was too late; she couldn't warn him in time.
The sword was about to pierce Zero's chest, but he seemed to have no reaction at all.
But... at that very moment, the sword grazed past Zero's left shoulder, producing a metallic clanging sound. On Zero's left shoulder, his clothes were torn, yet there was no blood, not even a scratch on his skin...
Upon seeing this, Qiu Ling'er was stunned.
"So strong!!"
The man in black was shocked, never expecting that his attack would be so easily countered.
Little did he know that it wasn't that Zero was deliberately not dodging, but rather that he had no need to dodge at all, because this amount of damage was like a tickle to him in his current state.
"How is this possible?!" The man in black was incredulous; he couldn't understand how the other party could be so powerful!
