The night was like ink, eerily quiet.
Time slipped away unnoticed.
Cui Ying was feeling quite agitated at the moment.
She couldn’t quite put a finger on her restlessness.
She found that she could not get in touch with Ren Feifan and Xu Shihan since the evening, and initially planned to call them out for a meal once she reached them.
But after half an hour of waiting with no sign of them, out of helplessness, Cui Ying could only order some take-out.
The doorbell soon rang, and Cui Ying, all dressed up, scurried over to get the door.
"This restaurant’s delivery is really fast, good job!"
But the moment she opened the door, a shadow suddenly sprang forward, forcing Cui Ying back into the room!
Cui Ying screamed instinctively.
The sound was cut short, the hotel door was slammed shut, and two burly men stood before Cui Ying.
At the moment, Yuan Hanqing, waiting downstairs, was polishing her spike.
This was her daily routine.
Suddenly, a high-pitched scream of a young girl came from the mini device nearby.
She had promised Ren Feifan to keep a watch on Cui Ying, so she had planted a mini bug at Cui Ying’s door.
This was her way as an assassin to provide protection.
Hearing the scream, Yuan Hanqing looked alarmed, flipping her spike into her waist belt.
She then swiftly sent a text message to Ren Feifan using her mobile.
"Cui Ying in trouble! Hurry!"
Discarding her mobile phone, she fiercely kicked through the hotel window, her foot resting on the windowsill, her arms holding onto a Enjoy reading on NovelHub - your free online novel platform.
Cui Ying backed away instinctively from the two men in her room and said coldly, "Who allowed you guys in here? I’m calling security, now get out!"
One of the burly men sneered, "Miss Cui, it’s time for you to meet your Blood Covenant man."
Cui Ying was stunned for a moment, and faltered, "What Blood Covenant? I don’t know what you’re talking about, you’ve got the wrong person."
"Hmph, don’t you, a lowly woman, know the value of your own life?" He said disdainfully.
Cui Ying felt a surge of anger, but knowing full well that she was no match for the two men before her, she quickly grabbed the phone on the desk, intending to call the hotel for help.
Next second, a throwing knife embedded itself into the phone.
Sparks flew, making Cui Ying jump in surprise.
"What do you want? Money? How much, I’ll wire it to you right now!"
"You’re overthinking, we just want you. In a way, our Chen family is merely reclaiming your useless life! Because you were born to be a plaything for our young master!"
Cui Ying paled upon hearing this, "What do you want to do?"
The two men didn’t answer Cui Ying, but moved towards her instead.
"Take her away first!"
As the two men gradually closed the gap, Cui Ying quickly picked up a nearby vase and threw it at them, but they easily dodged it.
Almost immediately, one of the men struck Cui Ying’s shoulder with his palm, and she fell to the floor, her body going limp.
Just as the man was about to lift Cui Ying up.
Then, sudden chaos erupted!
The window in Cui Ying’s room exploded, showering glass everywhere.
A girl clad in a leather jacket with her hair in a ponytail burst in, tightly clutching two spikes in her hands, ready to kill.
Yuan Hanqing, seeing Cui Ying in danger, immediately shot a spike, piercing the hand of the man who was about to lift Cui Ying.
The man, seemingly unaffected by the pain, wore a cold expression, pulled out the spike and tossed it aside, before launching himself at Yuan Hanqing with a punch!
Yuan Hanqing’s body was extraordinarily light, like a hunting cheetah, sprang out of the way, avoiding the opponent’s powerful punch.
The next moment, the spike flipped upwards, directly piercing the robust man’s neck.
Without any hesitation, the spike pierced through the man’s body.
Everything returned to silence.
Yuan Hanqing lunged at another burly man, planning to use the spike to deliver a fatal blow, but the man had already moved.
A longsword suddenly appeared in his hand, directly chopping down onto the spike.
The strong recoil nearly made Yuan Hanqing let go.
The man wielding the sword sneered, "Do you really think I’m just another ordinary person you can kill?"
A chill ran down Yuan Hanqing’s spine, an opponent who is a cultivator could be real trouble.
Without time to think, Yuan Hanqing directly ordered Cui Ying, "Cui Ying, you must go now. I will hold him off here, you need to go find Ren Feifan at Jiangnan University right away!"
Just as she finished speaking, he attacked again with a palm strike carrying a strong surge of True Qi!
Yuan Hanqing, known for her killing skills, had no talent in cultivation. Even now, she had only just managed to reach the middle stage of the Yellow rank, let alone breaking through to the Profound Extreme Realm.
Mainwhile the opponent’s strength had clearly far surpassed her own.
Cui Ying didn’t hesitate, enduring the pain in her shoulder, she ran towards the door!
One of them must survive to warn others!
She must find Ren Feifan immediately!
But the next moment, just as she crossed the threshold, a powerful force swept towards her. She instinctively turned her head and saw the girl who had been helping her blown away by a single palm strike!
Puking blood mid-air!
Barely holding onto life!
Yuan Hanqing was no match for the opponent at all!
The man sneered, delivering a harsh kick to Yuan Hanqing’s waist. Yuan Hanqing was sent skidding six or seven meters away.
Colliding directly with the wall!
Her face was deathly pale!
The man looked at the dying Yuan Hanqing and coldly chuckled, "A female assassin who hasn’t even reached the Profound Extreme Realm, thinking she can use the same trick she uses on ordinary people against us, the Chen family? Ridiculous!"
With a wave of his finger, the spike that had fallen to the ground was sucked into his hand.
Without any hesitation, he shot it directly towards Yuan Hanqing!
Yuan Hanqing only felt a sharp pain in her body and gradually lost consciousness!
I can’t die... I cannot die!
A strong will to live echoed in Yuan Hanqing’s mind. She knew Ren Feifan would come to rescue her!
Cui Ying was already in tears. Seeing the person who had saved her in this state, she could only run desperately. But the next moment, a dark figure flashed before her eyes.
Then a karate chop struck her neck. Cui Ying immediately passed out!
At that moment, after sending off Xu Shihan, Ren Feifan leisurely returned to his dormitory.
When he got to his dorm, he connected his mobile phone to the charging cable, letting it recharge slowly.
Recently his mobile phone was draining battery quite severely.
Having done all this, he went to sleep. He didn’t have a habit of using his phone before going to sleep.
At 4 a.m., for some reason, Ren Feifan felt a cold sweat on his back, even having nightmares in his sleep.
He quickly sat up, drank a glass of water, then checked his phone for the time.
It was the sound of a new message.
Ren Feifan casually opened the message, expecting it to be from the mobile carrier. But when he read the content of the message, he abruptly stood up, murder in his eyes, and bolted out of the room!
"Cui Ying is in danger! Hurry over!"
