126: Chapter 59: Can’t Beat Them, Run 126: Chapter 59: Can’t Beat Them, Run Gu Xiaoxi opened her eyes and looked at Zhao Zilong, her gaze growing solemn.
She couldn’t fathom this person’s depth; she had to test his skills first, and if that failed, she would run.
After all, her principle was simple: fight if she could win; if she couldn’t, she’d run.
Zhao Zilong saw that Gu Xiaoxi didn’t move, and her bright, large eyes shone craftily in the moonlight.
He curled his lips into a smile, his profile in the darkness imbued with a sense of sternness and mystery.
“Do you still have any tasks?” Gu Xiaoxi imdiately changed the subject, contemplating what she should do.
“Do you think I would tell you?” Zhao Zilong spoke indifferently as he approached the large tree where Gu Xiaoxi was situated.
Gu Xiaoxi wasn’t annoyed and sat on the branch, laughing softly, “It’s fine if you don’t tell .
I’ll just capture you and then extract the information under severe torture.
I like a challenge.”
“Is that so?
As it happens, I also like challenges.
Why don’t we see who captures whom?” Zhao Zilong stood with his hands clasped behind his back in front of the large tree, looking up at Gu Xiaoxi.
Suddenly, he leapt up gracefully like a swallow, stepping on the trunk and landing on the branch where Gu Xiaoxi was in a single move.
Gu Xiaoxi’s pupils contracted, and her large eyes were full of astonishnt; she hadn’t expected him to know Qinggong, and his technique was not the slightest bit inferior to hers.
Without thinking, she jumped down from the tree and dashed into the deeper forest.
Zhao Zilong was fast as well, leisurely chasing her figure, much like a cat stalking a mouse, almost ready to pounce and capture it.
Gu Xiaoxi ran a kiloter in one go, then leaned against a large tree to catch her breath.
This guy was a bit dangerous—if he managed to follow her here, then things would get tricky.
However, just as this thought erged, a spine-chilling coldness crept up behind her.
Without a second thought, Gu Xiaoxi gathered her strength, clenched her fist, turned around, and collided fiercely with the threatening palm behind her.
Their fists t, and a powerful force assaulted her, making Gu Xiaoxi’s arms go numb and her steps involuntarily retreat.
She was equally horrified to find that his strength had repelled her forceful strike.
Gu Xiaoxi hastily supported herself against a large tree, and looked up warily at Zhao Zilong, who stood not too far away.
The man still appeared utterly relaxed, with not even his breathing showing any sign of fluctuation.
Damn!
Gu Xiaoxi’s first impulse was to keep running; this man was unfathomable, and she couldn’t beat him.
Thinking this, Gu Xiaoxi looked up at the moon and swiftly dived into the bushes, heading non-stop toward the next stronghold.
Once she found a place to properly “Practice Techniques,” she would return to settle the score with him.
Yet, before Gu Xiaoxi had managed to get a hundred ters away, a strong figure once again blocked her path.
Gu Xiaoxi’s face darkened, nearly unable to stop in ti and crashing into the person.
It was the abrupt stop that caused her to almost stumble and fall.
At that mont, a strong and forceful hand suddenly reached out to steady her.
Turning her head, Gu Xiaoxi saw the man’s face close to hers, particularly noticing that her arm was tightly grasped by him, making it impossible to struggle free.
Gu Xiaoxi looked up with resignation in her eyes and stared at Zhao Zilong.
“Let go, there should be no physical contact between n and won.”
“I haven’t done anything to you.
However, now you are my captive and don’t have the right to negotiate with ,” Zhao Zilong said languidly, towering over Gu Xiaoxi like a mountain range.
It inexplicably gave one a suffocating sense of oppression.
