She rushed towards him, and fearing she might be injured by a hidden weapon, Yuwen Sheng sped up to meet her, eventually pulling her small body into his arms.
Didn't I tell you not to run away?
"Since you're already injured, a few more hits won't matter. But you, running over like that, aren't you afraid of the pain?"
"What hurts..." She buried her head in his chest and said in a muffled voice, "You're the one who's in pain, and you're still hugging me. Do you think you're not hurt enough already..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yuwen Sheng had already knocked him unconscious by striking his pressure points.
Because he was afraid that if he let her continue talking, the anger and murderous intent that had just risen within him would be softened into a puddle of spring water, and he would just want to hold her like this and do nothing else.
"Trying to escape?"
Hearing a cold, mocking voice behind her, the aunt felt a chill run down her spine and instinctively gripped her dagger, swinging her arm reflexively.
However, the next second her hand bones were clamped in mid-air and crushed by someone. The intense pain made her lose all color in an instant, and her whole body trembled.
But she remained silent, defiant, and stared at Yuwen Sheng with eyes that held a hint of fear and trepidation.
"Who...are you?"
Do you even deserve to know?
With one arm around Zheng Quchi, who was slumped in his arms, Yuwen Sheng used the other hand to twist her neck with lightning speed.
The woman slipped and fell to the ground, her empty eyes wide open as she breathed her last.
Yuwen Sheng lifted Zheng Quchi into his arms and carried him over the corpse on the ground. Blood continued to seep from the soles of his feet, but if anyone else were to look at him, no one could see a trace of pain on his face.
He walked toward Master Li, and some lurking people around him began to stir, the tense atmosphere about to erupt. However, Master Li gently shook the tassel bell, stopping all the changes.
Standing before Master Li, Yuwen Sheng asked with good temper, "Did you arrange all of this?"
Teacher Li didn't look at him, but stared at Zheng Quchi, who was unconscious in his arms: "What's the arrangement?"
"Whether you admit it or not..." Yuwen Sheng smiled gently, but in contrast, there was a violent killing intent that was almost desolate and beautiful: "The result is actually the same."
Since he saw something he shouldn't have seen, Yuwen Sheng naturally couldn't let him live.
As Master Li directly sensed the overwhelming evil aura emanating from him, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he looked up to meet the gaze.
Just as Yuwen Sheng was about to make his move to see if he could lure out more "insects," a stray bullet from who-knows-where struck the sole of Zheng Quchi's foot.
Suddenly, a strong, aching pain jolted her awake from her unconsciousness, and she slowly opened her eyes.
Then, she inexplicably found herself sandwiched between Liu Fengmian and Master Li.
Zheng Quchi: "..."
