“Swish!”
When she saw the whip being pulled out, Qin Xin was unable to bear it. Her finger moved, and a burst of breath hit the hand that was holding the whip. The man let out a cry of pain and the whip in his hand fell to the ground.
“Who dares to sneak up on me?” The guard cursed angrily and looked at his red wrist. His eyes swept around sharply.
Qin Xin withdrew her gaze and explained softly to Leng Shuang beside her: “That is just a seven or eight year old child. I just couldn’t bear it, that’s why I made a move.” She was worried that Leng Shuang would reprimand her for causing trouble. After all, they had come out with their Master and they couldn’t cause unnecessary trouble here.
“You were too soft on him.”
As Leng Shuang spoke, she glanced at the guard who was shouting angrily. Just as she was about to look away, she was surprised and stopped to look at the tall figure who had appeared with a bit of astonishment.
Qin Xin felt relieved upon hearing her words, but felt something was not quite right, so she asked: “What’s wrong?” She followed her line of sight and saw a tall man step forward to help the child on the ground. However, at this time, the guard had already picked up his whip from the ground and was about to whip the man and child in anger.
Qin Xin was about to make a move. Because of Leng Shuang’s words before, she wasn’t worried about doing so anymore. However, what she hadn’t expected was that before she had time to make a move, Leng Shuang, who was beside her, had already swept out like a gust of wind and kicked the whip-wielding guard away.
She froze for a moment, a little surprised. Could it be that she knew him?
She followed her immediately.
“Who is it?” The other guards surrounded them immediately and shouted when they saw a glamorous woman in tight black clothes had kicked their brother.
Leng Shuang didn’t even look at the dozens of guards that had surrounded them. She just stared at the tall man carefully, and after seeing his surprised eyes, she asked: “Gu Xiangyi?”
The tall man, Gu Xiangyi, quietly looked at the glamorous woman in black in front of him in astonishment and surprise in his eyes, as well as the pleasant surprise of reunion after a long time apart.
He opened his mouth, but was unable to speak, so he just nodded. He recognised her. She was Leng Shuang, Feng Jiu’s trusted subordinate. If she was here, it meant that Feng Jiu was also here.
Ever since he bid them farewell back then, he never thought that he would see them here today under such circumstances. He felt a little embarrassed and also emotional. But at this time, he felt relief more than anything. He had been worried this whole time, and now that he had finally met an acquaintance, he could finally rest assured.
If it had been someone else, he wouldn’t have been able to be rest assured. However, because it was Feng Jiu, he knew that their suffering along the way was finally coming to an end. At this moment, he felt extremely fortunate to be able to see Leng Shuang here, and that she also recognised him.
Leng Shuang looked at him and frowned. She asked: “You can’t speak?” When she saw him nod again, she glanced at the surrounding guards with cold eyes: “Unlock their locks!”
“Bitch! You dare to block our way! Brothers, make a move! Capture her!” The leader of the guards shouted immediately and beckoned everyone to move forward.
Leng Shuang didn’t make a move, because Qin Xin had already come to her side with her zither in her hand. With a swipe of her hand, the sounds from the zither flowed out and turned into streams of air knocking out the guards who had rushed forward without hurting innocent bystanders.
At the same time, Feng Jiu and the others who were waiting for Leng Shuang and the others to return to the inn stood up when they heard the sound of the zither.
