Upon seeing Gu Huaijin next to Gu Zhiqi, Qi Yuanyuan was initially shocked and then her eyes filled with hatred.
Qi Yuanyuan’s voice was sharp with clear hostility, and her gaze did not attempt to conceal the animosity and resentment within, which put Gu Huaijin on high alert. His cold eyes narrowed as he looked back at Qi Yuanyuan.
Qi Yuanyuan didn’t notice Gu Huaijin’s stare; all her attention was focused on Gu Zhiqi.
At this moment, all the hatred surged over her like a flood. It was her, because of this bitch, that her fingers were broken.
Blinded by hatred, she didn’t care about the situation at hand.
Having finally found the culprit responsible for her severed hand, she was determined to make her die.
"Bitch, I’ll kill you!" Qi Yuanyuan yelled, mobilizing her vital energy to strike at Gu Zhiqi.
Having only seen her once, Gu Zhiqi hadn’t remembered Qi Yuanyuan’s appearance. Seeing Qi Yuanyuan suddenly charging at her, Gu Zhiqi was puzzled, wondering when she had offended her.
Qi Yuanyuan’s Ancient Martial Arts were only at the Second-order Peak, posing no threat to Gu Zhiqi, who easily dispersed her attack.
Gu Huaijin looked sideways and glanced at Gu Ying.
Upon seeing this, Gu Ying immediately nodded, flipped her hair with her hand, and took several large steps forward, "Where did this troublemaker come from, daring to harm Master Zhi?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Ying appeared in front of Qi Yuanyuan.
Qi Yuanyuan received a harsh kick to the stomach and was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, flying in a parabola far away.
Following a scream, Qi Yuanyuan landed and didn’t get up again, lying motionless on the ground as if she were dead.
However, Gu Ying knew she wasn’t dead; she had merely passed out because Gu Ying had controlled the force of her blow to avoid killing her.
Seeing this, Gu Huaijin internally praised his decision to bring Gu Ying along once more.
After all, it wouldn’t look good for him, a man, to get physically involved; it was better that Gu Ying took action.
Apart from the four of them and Qi Yuanyuan, there were disciples of the Medical Alliance around. Seeing this scene, the surrounding disciples were stunned for a moment, but most of them just stood there and continued to watch the excitement.
Only a few with less sense were on guard, surrounding them and asking, "Who are you?"
Seeing this, Gu Ying twisted her arms, cracking her knuckles, her eyes filled with interest, "Young master, do these need to be dealt with?"
Gu Huaijin twitched the corner of his mouth, "We are here as guests, not to cause trouble."
While he spoke, Gu Huaijin took out a hand token from his pocket and showed it to those surrounding them, "We have an appointment with Elder Mo; please let us through."
Ordinarily, there would be no need to show a hand token since being able to enter the Medical Alliance territory meant they had been approved by the senior members of the Medical Alliance.
Obviously, however, the few in front of them were not bright enough to realize this.
Since it was someone else’s turf, Gu Huaijin didn’t want to stir up trouble.
Seeing this, Gu Ying appeared slightly disappointed, not making any further move but still stayed protectively in front of Gu Zhiqi.
Those who had surrounded them saw the hand token in Gu Huaijin’s hand, and they were all taken aback. After a moment of silence, one of the disciples spoke with displeasure, "If you have an appointment, why did you still assault someone?"
"Blind, didn’t you see she attacked first?" Gu Ying retorted unapologetically, "What, you want to learn from her?"
The disciple choked, his neck thickened, and he looked like he wanted to speak but eventually did not. He was pulled away by his companions to check on Qi Yuanyuan’s situation.
