He was iron-willed, he wouldn’t talk even in death. Seeing that Yang Jian wouldn’t speak, the remaining five teammates simply closed their eyes, all with an expression of resignation to their fate.
Gu Xiaoxi stood up, put away the throat-cutting pen in her hand, and just smiled without saying a word.
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out behind her.
Gu Xiaoxi’s reaction was incredibly fast, she had already put on her backpack and quickly darted into the bushes, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Li Jing, holding a gun in her hand, looked down at the six men trapped on the ground, her gaze slightly cold, "What exactly is going on with you guys?"
"Li Jing, it’s Gu Xiaoxi. Don’t let her get away," Yang Jian said nervously. Especially since he was still apprehensive about Gu Xiaoxi’s skills.
Li Jing looked up, scanning the surroundings, and with a deep voice said, "She’s already gone."
At this moment, five teammates behind Li Jing quickly untied Yang Jian. When everyone saw the turtle drawn on Yang Jian’s face, they couldn’t help but burst into laughter, "Yang Jian, are you dead or what?"
"Gu Xiaoxi is just messing with you, right? The throat-cutting pen is her dagger. Drawing a turtle, you might as well consider your face disfigured," another soldier snickered.
"Captain Li, our dear Shaolin Disciple, Captain Yang, who knows the Seventy-two Ultimate Skills, has suffered a face injury. Maybe we should rush to give him emergency treatment... hahaha..." the soldiers laughed mockingly.
Yang Jian’s face turned red with embarrassment, and he was so angry his nose looked crooked as he snorted, his face utterly lost. He quickly tried to excuse himself, "Don’t get cocky, you lot. You haven’t encountered that woman. She’s practically a freak with her moves. Remember how she openly challenged Zhu Zheng, and he also ended up being knocked down with two punches? Let me tell you, you better not underestimate her."
"It’s your own lack of skill, isn’t it?..."
Li Jing suddenly interrupted the soldier, her tone harsh, "Stop fooling around. Gu Xiaoxi’s skills are indeed a bit strange, as seen in the last contest. Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know anything... Let’s go, we’ll hand this over to Captain Zhao. Besides him, no one else should even think about matching her."
At that moment, everyone shut up. Whether they accepted it or not, they knew the truth well.
Li Jing looked at Yang Jian, "Maybe I arrived just in time, she hadn’t made her move on you yet, you’re lucky to be alive. Don’t act like Na Qi and overestimate yourself again."
Yang Jian immediately scrambled up from the ground, a blood-red turtle on his forehead, and ran over to Li Jing to curry favor, "Thank you for the rescue, Captain Li. Tonight I’d like to treat you..."
"Captain Yang, trying to pick up girls during the exercise... Our Captain Li is Captain Zhao’s girl."
A group of people engaged in a battle of words while remaining vigilant of their surroundings.
Li Jing, not in the mood to entertain their nonsense, contacted Zhao Zilong, "Report to Captain Zhao, Gu Xiaoxi has escaped. What are your instructions?"
"I’ve already sent people to capture those escaped prisoners. You guys hurry back to the headquarters, there are more tasks ahead," the deep voice of Zhao Zilong came from the earpiece.
"Yes! What about Gu Xiaoxi?" Li Jing asked.
"You and Yang Jian just come back, I’ll handle her," Zhao Zilong said seriously.
In reality, Gu Xiaoxi hadn’t really gone far.
She needed to know where their headquarters was, what secret activities the Blue Army was up to. So, she pretended to run away, but in fact, she was following them.
By then, the sky had gradually darkened.
The forest at night was particularly lively, filled with the endless chirping of various insects.
Gu Xiaoxi listened to the footsteps of Li Jing and Yang Jian, leisurely following them. Along the way, she passed by the hill where the skilled Number Five was located, promptly assassinated him, and then continued following them to their headquarters.
