Clearly, Wei Jingzhuo's strength was insufficient to fight off the assassin; his handsome face turned bright red, even appearing somewhat ferocious.
Perhaps in the next second, the dagger will pierce through his chest.
Su Wan's hands were empty, and she didn't have time to go to the apartment to get anything, so she simply ran behind the assassin and kicked him hard in the groin.
She learned this trick from a women's self-defense training class.
The teacher told her that women are physically weaker and it is difficult for them to fight against men with strength alone. The only purpose of those miscellaneous techniques is to excite the criminals.
This is the only move that truly threatens men. No matter how strong a man is, very few can stand up after being hit by it.
The only difficulty with this move is whether you can actually kick it.
The assassin, legs spread wide, was locked in a full-on confrontation with Wei Jingzhuo. Although he heard the curtain rustle, he had no time to turn around as the dagger was about to pierce through. Then he heard a woman scream, realizing it was one of the two who had just left, and felt even more at ease.
They're just two weak women; what kind of trouble could they possibly cause?
So Su Wan's kick was effortless and unusually affectionate, making her instep ache.
The assassin grunted, his body suddenly curling up as he struggled to turn his head to look at Su Wan, roaring, "You..."
Su Wan took a step back, raised her right foot and rubbed the back of her foot with her hand, and laughed, "You almost succeeded, thank goodness."
The assassin was in excruciating pain in his lower body and was unable to get up. Taking advantage of the situation, Wei Jingzhuo struggled and broke free from his control. He pulled out a long sword from under the blanket and pierced the assassin's throat with a single stroke.
The assassin tumbled and fell, dropping his dagger to the ground. At that moment, Granny Cui rushed in.
"Madam, you cannot enter..."
She was speaking when she saw what was happening inside the room and exclaimed, "Master, it's an assassin! An assassin!"
Wei Jingzhuo sat on the edge of the bed, using his sword as a support, raised his hand to stop Granny Cui, and whispered, "Don't shout, we need to leave here quickly."
Granny Cui quickly covered her mouth and stepped forward to support Wei Jingzhuo, saying, "Master, where...where are we going?"
"Go west."
Wei Jingzhuo gave a brief instruction and then felt dizzy.
He sensed the assassin entering the room, but his weakened body wouldn't allow him to get up. So he pretended to be asleep, secretly gathering his strength.
However, the assassin was no fool either. He noticed Wei Jingzhuo's unusual behavior, and the two attacked almost simultaneously.
Fortunately, Su Wan rushed in at the last minute to save him. That kick was really powerful.
He initially didn't believe Master Huiming's claim that a marriage of convenience could avert death, but now he's starting to waver.
Perhaps this beautiful and radiant young girl before him, as bright as the moon, is truly his destined lucky star.
Su Wan was new to the area and had already helped him twice; he wanted to express his sincere gratitude. Turning his head, he saw that this lucky charm was squatting on the ground again, rummaging through the assassin's pockets, muttering to herself.
"What a poor bastard, he doesn't even carry enough money with him when he goes out..."
"By the way, you can give me that little donkey in the yard, since you don't need it anymore, right?"
