A woman's smile can send chills down your spine.
During this battle, Ming Lei felt a chill run down his spine. When Rong Chang loosened her grip on his neck slightly, he instinctively took a step back. "W-what are you doing?"
He looked warily at the woman in front of him, then at the man behind her, not understanding what she was laughing about.
In their line of sight, Zhan Nanting's men were walking towards the door.
Zhan Minglei was excited and plotting something when Rong Chang's cold and sinister voice came.
"Stop looking, the Spirit Pearl is on him."
In an instant, the crowd that had reached the door stopped. Zhan Minglei's heart skipped a beat, and the next second he met Zhan Nanting's wicked and interested gaze.
His expression changed drastically, and Zhan Minglei shouted, "You're talking nonsense!"
Zhan Minglei struggled, and this time he swung his fist to smash Rong Shang, but somehow, no matter how he punched, the woman always managed to dodge it so skillfully.
"You damn old hag, you're here to ruin my place, aren't you?"
Using all his anger to mask his guilty conscience, Zhan Minglei glanced at his men with difficulty, then roared, "What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and get me out of here!"
When someone chokes you for a long time, your voice will gradually become hoarse and weak.
Han San wanted to save him, but the woman was choking Zhan Minglei, so he couldn't do anything about it.
Left with no other option, Han San could only secretly pull out a pistol from his waist.
Unexpectedly, a loud "bang" rang out.
Before he could even grip the pistol properly, a bullet suddenly pierced his arm.
"Ouch!" Han San cried out, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Clutching his bleeding arm, Han San gritted his teeth and looked up. Across from him, a noble and elegant man glanced at him indifferently.
Yes... Zhan Nanting.
Han San pursed his lips, then lowered his eyes with a hint of fear.
Before long, the deep, magnetic voice of the man in front rang out.
"Cheng Qi, search him."
"yes!"
Cheng Qi stepped forward as ordered. Rong Shang released Zhan Minglei, and as she stepped back, Zhan Nanting's pistol was already pressed against Zhan Minglei's head.
Well, just in case.
Now, death is inevitable either way.
Zhan Minglei gritted his teeth, outwardly letting Cheng Qi's hands search his clothes, but inwardly he had already cursed Rong Shang a thousand times over.
Depend on.
He must have encountered the devil.
No matter what he's thinking or doing, this woman can always see right through him.
Beside him, Han San trembled in pain. Zhan Minglei listened to his panting and clenched his fist tightly at his side.
A moment later, Cheng Qi found the spirit pearl hidden on Zhan Minglei's body.
When Cheng Qi carefully took out the spirit pearl and handed it to Zhan Nanting, its fiery red light was reflected in Rong Chang's pupils.
Startled, Rong Chang's sharp gaze fell on the spirit pearl, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed instantly.
What's going on? Isn't this the Blood Spirit Orb from Minghua Cave?
Strange, how did this thing end up here?
*
With the Spirit Pearl in hand and Zhan Minglei as a hostage, Zhan Nanting's men successfully withdrew from the Dark City in just over ten minutes.
The plan failed, and Zhan Minglei was repeatedly bullied and manipulated. Most importantly, when the woman escaped, she snatched Zhan Nanting's pistol and shot him in the arm.
Unable to swallow this resentment, Zhan Minglei was furious as Zhan Nanting and his men got into their car and prepared to leave.
Without saying a word, he snatched the gun from his subordinate and ran out through the convenient passage.
