"Calm down!"
Facing the complints from the secret agent of the Sound Listening Bureau nearby, Shen Xiao waved his hand nonchalantly.
At this mont, Shen Xiao didn’t want to admit that he actually didn’t expect this mysterious figure to leave and then return.
In the small courtyard of Sanfu Village, i Jiu already looked as if she was facing a formidable enemy.
After repeated probes, the mysterious figure suddenly returned, likely ready to take action.
i Jiu tightly gripped the sword hilt with her right hand, fully prepared to strike at any mont.
Yuan Bao wasn’t idle either. Although small in stature, she was quite crafty. When she noticed i Jiu preparing to attack, she cautiously opened her own Hundred Treasure Pouch.
With her skills, she wasn’t worthy enough to be poked by even a finger of i Jiu.
If soone could make i Jiu so tense, Yuan Bao’s abilities definitely weren’t enough.
However, when experts clash, it’s not just about comparing martial prowess.
Defeating the strong with the weak, crossing ranks in combat, such instances exist everywhere.
Yuan Bao’s Hundred Treasure Pouch held many tricky treasures.
For example, li powder, chili powder, and the bee tail needle she got from her godfather, Wei Shiyu.
This bee tail needle was inspired by the phrase "Green bamboo snake’s mouth, wasp’s tail sting."
The bee tail needle is fired from a crossbow, with a poisoned tip, and if hit by it without taking an antidote in ti, the victim will surely die.
...
Outside the courtyard wall, the mysterious figure briefly paused, then suddenly leaped into the air, vaulting over the wall and soaring inside.
And just as the mysterious figure leapt, i Jiu from inside drew her sword and dashed out through the window, like a lightning strike, straight toward the airborne mysterious figure.
The mysterious figure was an expert, but faced with i Jiu’s sudden assault, he was sowhat flustered.
Although he managed to evade i Jiu’s strike, his waist was still grazed by her sword’s edge.
"Plum Blossom Secret Guard?!"
Injured by i Jiu’s sword, the mysterious figure landed in a corner of the courtyard, narrowing his eyes slightly, gauging the sword-wielding i Jiu standing opposite him.
"Which i are you?"
Staring at i Jiu, the mysterious figure apparently recognized her origins.
"i Jiu!"
Since her identity was already recognized, i Jiu didn’t hide it and frankly introduced herself.
"It seems my arrival is quite untily."
The mysterious figure’s brows furrowed, his expression extrely serious.
Faced with the mysterious figure’s self-talk, i Jiu didn’t respond but instead resud her sword attack.
However, the mysterious figure clearly didn’t want to fight i Jiu, choosing to retreat, leaping into the air trying to escape.
i Jiu naturally wouldn’t let the opponent escape so easily.
She pursued the mysterious figure closely with her sword in hand.
The mysterious figure leaped onto the courtyard wall, his body ascending into the sky, but then suddenly reversed direction, instead of retreating, shooting straight towards the window i Jiu had flown out of, obviously intending to capture the leader to end the conflict.
Yuan Bao, being the Jiafu Village Chief, was naturally the targeted leader in the enemy’s eyes.
If Yuan Bao were an ordinary little girl, she might indeed have been captured under the opponent’s strategy.
Unfortunately, Yuan Bao wasn’t a normal little girl.
After i Jiu leapt out the window, Yuan Bao was at the window observing the fight outside.
Although the mysterious figure initially seed to be escaping, midway he changed direction towards Yuan Bao, but what he didn’t expect was that Yuan Bao, seeing him leap towards her, was not the least bit flustered, and swiftly tossed out a mixed powder of li and chili powder.
The mysterious figure was indeed an expert, but at this mont his posture couldn’t change; facing the incoming powder, his only option was to close his eyes and hold his breath.
Yet, Yuan Bao still had the bee tail needle in her hand!
The chanism quivered lightly, a cold gleam shot forth.
The mysterious figure never dread he’d be outsmarted by a little girl.
After all, who in their right mind would expect this little girl to be so unscrupulous in combat!
