"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else." Chiang Xiao realized her mistake and immediately brought her hands together in a gesture of apology, her expression the picture of innocence.
She didn’t care whether the other person understood her or not, the necessary act still had to be performed.
The man clearly did not understand what she was saying, but after taking a good look at her face, his gaze turned somewhat sinister, and a look of excitement appeared on his face.
Perhaps thinking that Chiang Xiao, such a delicate-looking girl, posed no threat, he relaxed his guard, stepping closer to her with each move and glancing behind her before asking in a foreign language, "Where were you hiding just now?"
Chiang Xiao continued to pretend not to understand, stepping back gradually, her face filled with terror, "What do you want to do?"
"Meng." The man said one word in Chinese, "Do you know it?"
They only knew his surname as a code, just this character, right?
Chiang Xiao continued, "What do you want to do?"
A malicious gleam appeared in the man’s eyes, and he suddenly reached towards her chest with his hand.
Chiang Xiao could no longer contain her anger.
"To hell with your ’Big Master’!" A stick suddenly appeared in her hand, and she swung it fiercely at the man’s wrist.
The sudden appearance of the stick took the man completely by surprise. He was facing her this time and hesitated for a moment, and that slight delay slowed his reaction.
The stick hit his wrist hard.
There was a cracking sound.
The man screamed in pain.
Chiang Xiao had shattered his wrist.
Just who knew how astounding the strength of Chiang Xiao could be when exerted at full power?
The medicinal herbs in the Space had been growing for a year and a half, the stronger and more lush they grew, the more potent the Space’s medicinal strength became, and the stronger her body and power would be.
Moreover, she had been practicing the Boxing Technique taught to her by Meng Xinian every day for the past year.
Although she hadn’t used her fist just now, the principle was the same.
The man yelled furiously, kicking out at her.
Chiang Xiao was also shocked; at this point, most people would probably have passed out from the pain, yet this man not only stayed aggressive but seemed just as strong as before! It was as if only using the other hand had no effect on him at all!
She quickly retreated, and at the same time, the stick in her hand swung out again, aiming for his foot.
Within a span of a few meters, both she and Meng Xinian had encountered the toughest opponent they had faced for a long time.
This was a fierce battle taking place at the same time.
Meng Xinian struggled with the fight due to a leg injury and because he had not had a proper night’s sleep in a long time. It was one of the most challenging battles he had ever fought.
When Chiang Xiao once again struck the man’s head hard with the stick, a numbness surged through her palm, her arm went weak, and she nearly lost her grip on the stick.
Finally, the man fell to the ground twitching, then lay still.
Chiang Xiao immediately scooped up a cup of Spiritual Spring Water and gulped it down, otherwise, she would have almost collapsed from exhaustion.
This man was too terrifying.
She should have dealt with this man, but she was really worried about Meng Xinian. After kicking him to make sure he was indeed motionless, she ran towards the square as fast as she could.
As she drew closer, she could smell the blood, thicker than before, and her heart sank heavily.
When she rounded Tasong and saw the two bodies lying on the ground, Chiang Xiao’s heart nearly stopped.
By the dim moonlight, she instantly recognized one of them.
Chiang Xiao’s eyes reddened, and she ran toward him.
