The second-in-command kept his mouth tightly shut, resolutely refusing to open it.
Qi Zhao didn't have the patience to waste time with the second-in-command, so he gripped his chin tightly and pulled hard.
With a "crack," Qi Zhao dislocated the second-in-command's jaw.
"ah!"
The second-in-command let out a bloodcurdling scream.
His mouth was wide open, and saliva was uncontrollably flowing from it.
Qi Zhao glanced at the second-in-command with disdain, and then, taking advantage of the second-in-command's scream, he flicked his finger, and the black pill flew accurately into the second-in-command's throat.
The second-in-command's mouth hung open; he wanted to vomit but couldn't, and he swallowed the black pill directly into his stomach.
Immediately afterward, blood suddenly flowed from the second-in-command's mouth, nose, ears, and eyes.
The second-in-command looked at Jiang Wanwan in terror, making muffled noises in his throat, begging her to let him go.
However, his jaw was dislocated, and he was unable to speak at all.
Seeing the Second Master's appearance from behind Jiang Wanwan, Madam Liu felt both terrified and relieved.
Recalling the scene of her being bullied earlier, she rushed over and slapped the second-in-command several times.
Not satisfied with slapping her several times, she gritted her teeth, pulled out the hairpin from her hair, and stabbed it hard between the second-in-command's legs.
"You beast, I begged you to let me go but you wouldn't. Let's see if you can still harm people without this thing!" Madam Liu's eyes were slightly red as she glared at the second-in-command with hatred.
The second-in-command's face was contorted in pain. Just as he was screaming, Jiang Wanwan picked up a dirty piece of clothing from the ground and stuffed it into his mouth to muffle his screams.
Shortly after, the second-in-command bled from all seven orifices and collapsed to the ground, dead.
Madam Liu stared blankly at the second-in-command's corpse on the bed, her body going limp. If Jiang Wanwan hadn't caught her quickly, she would have fallen to the ground.
"Thank you, thank you, sister." Mrs. Liu said gratefully, holding Jiang Wanwan's arms tightly with both hands.
"Big sister, don't be so polite," Jiang Wanwan said. "Big sister, we have important business to attend to later, why don't you find a place to hide first?"
“No, I have to go save my husband,” Mrs. Liu said resolutely, shaking her head sharply.
"Sister, there are bandits everywhere outside. You should protect yourself first. If I see your husband, I will tell him you are hiding here," Jiang Wanwan advised.
It was getting late, and they had to find Deputy General Liu and wipe out Black Wind Stronghold before their leader returned to the stronghold.
Madam Liu moved her lips, but then realized she didn't know martial arts and would only be a hindrance to Jiang Wanwan and her companion. So, she looked at Jiang Wanwan expectantly and said, "Sister, my husband's name is Liu Dayong. If you see him, please tell him I'm hiding here."
"Okay, I understand. After we go out, make sure to close the windows tightly. No matter who calls you to open the door, don't open it. Also, remember, no matter what noise you hear later, don't come out. Wait until the whole stronghold is in chaos, then seize the opportunity to escape. Here is the escape route, take this." Jiang Wanwan handed the topographical map she had just drawn to Madam Liu.
She possessed a photographic memory; long before she drew the topographical map, she had already memorized the entire layout of Black Wind Stronghold.
While Jiang Wanwan and the other woman were talking, Qi Zhao had already hidden the second-in-command's body.
So the two of them didn't delay any longer and climbed out of the window.
