"Damn it! You're seeking death!"
A Chunin saw Jiang Xuezhun charging at him, and with such arrogance too, he cursed loudly before casually tossing a dagger!
The dagger, shrouded in a cold light, hurtled towards Jiang Xuezhun with incredible speed and reached less than a foot in front of her in the blink of an eye!
The very next moment, it would have slashed her throat!
Jiang Xuezhun had never seen such an attack technique before. She was somewhat stunned and tried to dodge, but the dagger was too fast to evade.
Jiang Xuezhun was horrified, the first thought flashing through her head was, "My God, does it have to be this brutal? I haven't even been intimate with my husband yet!"
Her golden years were still ahead of her!
Anna, Liu Ruyan, and Qin Yao were wrenched with anxiety below the stage. They stood up, but facing such an adversary, their strength was utterly insignificant, let alone rescuing Jiang Xuezhun.
Chen Suyi was trapped and, seeing Jiang Xuezhun's peril, she cried out tenderly. If Jiang Xuezhun got hurt while trying to save her, Chen Suyi would feel guilty for a lifetime!
The two had always been openly and secretly competing, neither willing to submit to the other, each yearning to bring the other down, but now, she didn't want that anymore.
All she wanted was for Jiang Xuezhun not to die!
Jiang Xuezhun gave a tragic smile and said, "Suyi, saving you, I have no regrets..."
Just as the dagger was about to slice through Jiang Xuezhun's throat, a hand suddenly appeared in front of Jiang Xuezhun and grabbed the dagger!
Blood dripped down the palm.
Jiang Xuezhun saw a familiar figure appear in front of her—Xu Hao!
She exclaimed in surprise, "Husband, you came to save us. I thought you had already left?"
But then she noticed Xu Hao's right hand, which was holding the dagger, continuously dripping blood. She quickly grabbed his right hand and asked with concern, "Husband, your hand... it pains me so much."
Xu Hao patted her head, smiled, and said, "It's nothing, just a small wound. It will clot on its own soon."
Xu Hao could have intercepted the dagger with his left hand, but given the dagger's speed, using his right hand was more convenient, so he chose his right hand. This copy comes from content on *.
Xu Hao switched the dagger to his left hand and said to the two Islander Ninjas, "Gentlemen, how do you like that sneak attack?"
"Damn it! Weren't you off handling some trouble?"
The Ninja who had pulled out the dagger to kill Jiang Xuezhun was immediately shocked and said, "Boy, don't meddle any further, or else, your death will be very ugly!"
Xu Hao said indifferently, "I will die a very ugly death? Well, I really must see how you plan to make my death so very ugly."
As he spoke, Xu Hao moved swiftly to shatter the net trapping Chen Suyi and then pulled her behind him.
"Hahaha! To deal with you, we prepared contingencies! It seems you didn't fall for the first; now we must implement the second plan."
The other Ninja laughed heartily and then clapped his hands. Immediately, a dozen Ninjas rushed forward, each holding a powerful crossbow, backed by a large supply of crossbow arrows.
After arriving, they spread out and lined up with their crossbows aimed at Xu Hao.
The audience below the stage was in complete chaos. Although the smoke made it difficult to see what was happening on stage, they knew something was terribly wrong and started moving back, with most rushing out, eager to avoid trouble.
While knowing that the adversaries were Islanders and should unanimously be opposed, many chose to protect themselves in the face of danger.
Liu Ruyan and the two ladies wanted to join the fray, but realizing that even if they did, they couldn't help much and might instead add to the chaos, stayed where they were.
Anna then firmly stated, "Humph! My brother is the most powerful, and he will definitely defeat these people!"
The simple-minded Anna had an inexplicable confidence in Xu Hao, but Liu Ruyan and Qin Yao knew that the situation was indeed troublesome today.
The two women silently vowed in their hearts that if Xu Hao died, they would certainly seek vengeance and make these despicable Islanders suffer the consequences!
The man laughed loudly, "Haha! Foolish Xu Hao, we know you are fast, but you didn't anticipate that to counter your speed, we devised a special tactical plan! These crossbow arrows are specially made with high-grade steel, incredibly hard, easily capable of piercing through a car!
With this barrage of arrows raining down like a torrential downpour, I wonder if your speed is still of any use? Even if you can dodge them, the two women behind you will likely be turned into sieves by the arrows, right?"
Jiang Xuezhun immediately said, "Husband, let's get out of here. We'll leave together. I don't believe they really dare to kill us."
Xu Hao gently shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid. They talk big, but when have they ever succeeded? Don't worry, I'm here, it's all right."
"Damn it! Still so arrogant when death is upon you! Charge, take them down!"
Following the Ninja's loud command, those armed with crossbow arrows fired in unison at Xu Hao!
In an instant, countless crossbow arrows flew towards him, almost completely covering the stage.
In the face of such indiscriminate, carpet-style attacks, all speed was useless.
Facing such a dire life-or-death situation, although Jiang Xuezhun and Chen Suyi were scared, they remained calm, standing on either side of Xu Hao, holding hands. In this moment, their past conflicts vanished, and they stood resolutely by Xu Hao's side.
