Chapter 2 : Trouble Expert

  • The birds in the forest were startled and flew away.
  • Startled, she hurriedly hid back inside the coffin, her black and white eyes alertly scanning her surroundings. She muttered to herself, "Do they know I'm not dead and sent assassins after me?"
  • The next second, she realized she was overthinking because she heard rustling sounds coming from the nearby bushes. Her eyebrows twitched in surprise as she saw a sharp dagger left behind by a tomb raider nearby. She cautiously picked it up and stealthily approached the source of the sound!
  • The night wind was chilly, causing her already thin clothes to flutter and making her teeth chatter uncontrollably!
  • The dry grass in front of her was pressed down, as if someone was lying there!
  • "Who's there?" Ye Fengwan, despite her boldness, couldn't help but feel frightened in this graveyard!
  • No one responded to her, but a strong smell of blood permeated the air, causing her to instinctively furrow her brows.
  • Injured? With this realization, she breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed to be a person, not a ghost...
  • She cautiously approached and saw a person lying motionless in the bushes.
  • So it turned out to be a dead person! She patted her chest in relief, feeling her heart beating faster. Moreover, she felt a strange desire surging through her body!
  • She licked her slightly reddened lips and glanced at the motionless person lying there, curiosity filling her eyes.
  • Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, catching her off guard. A sharp long sword was placed against her throat. She quickly raised her hands and shouted, "I'm just a passerby! I'm just a passerby!"
  • The man's cold gaze swept across her face, and he lightly opened his thin lips, "Passerby?"
  • "Yes! Yes!" Ye Fengwan nodded repeatedly like a frightened little chicken, carefully observing the man in front of her. He was dressed in black night clothes, with handsome features that seemed sculpted. He was truly a flawless beauty! Under normal circumstances, Ye Fengwan would have indulged in fantasies, but at this moment, the killing intent in the man's eyes prevented her from having any improper thoughts!
  • After giving her a stern glare, the man finally confirmed that she posed no threat to him. He abruptly lowered his sword and coldly said, "Get lost!"
  • Without looking back, Ye Fengwan quickly crawled away using both her hands and feet. But the next moment, she crawled back, looking at the unfamiliar man with pitiful eyes. "It seems like I can't leave!"
  • The man glanced at her and saw the grass moving without any wind. The intense killing intent in the surroundings swept towards the two of them!
  • "Very well! They caught up so quickly!" The man sneered.
  • Ye Fengwan looked up and down at him and said, "Are they your enemies?"
  • "Are they yours?" The man's thin lips lightly parted.
  • "I don't have enemies as formidable as them! It seems like they're well-trained assassins, and there's more than one!" She sat next to him, plucked a blade of grass, and chewed on it.
  • Only then did the man carefully observe her. He saw her dirty face covered in dust, but it didn't diminish her liveliness. What was even more remarkable was that if it were an ordinary woman in this dangerous situation, she would have been scared and lost her composure. But here she was, sitting calmly and chatting with him.
  • The pain from his chest wound made him bend over involuntarily.
  • "You're seriously injured, aren't you?" Ye Fengwan glanced at him sideways.
  • "Is it any of your business?" The man glared at her fiercely.
  • "I don't want to meddle either! But now I can't leave either! What should we do?" Ye Fengwan sighed.
  • The man's eyes darkened as he glanced around. He ignored her and sat alone, adjusting his internal energy.
  • "Hey! I said, you should come up with a plan! We're like two fleas tied together on a rope! You can't run, and I can't jump!" Ye Fengwan anxiously tugged at the man's sleeve.
  • The man suddenly opened his eyes, a glint of surprise flashing through them, startling Ye Fengwan. But she stubbornly didn't retract her hand!
  • "I'm telling you, I'm really in trouble because of you! Look, I could have climbed out of the coffin and walked away! But now, there are assassins surrounding us. If I get shot by an arrow, I'll have to go back into the coffin again!" Ye Fengwan started to ramble, her black and white eyes shining like precious jade.
  • "Shut up!" The man scolded her, and a dark gaze casually swept across their surroundings. He felt the air suddenly become tense as the assassins closed in!
  • Ye Fengwan also felt it. Her spine shivered, and she became like a beast filled with blood, agilely scanning her surroundings!
  • The man was slightly surprised. Wasn't she just harmless like a little white rabbit? How did she suddenly change? He carefully observed the woman in front of him. She was petite and dressed in tattered clothes, but he could faintly sense a power flowing within her body that couldn't be ignored!
  • This little woman was quite interesting! Nangong Ye couldn't help but think.
  • As if sensing his scrutiny, Ye Fengwan turned her head and glared at him, displeased. "These people are here to kill you!"
  • "You can escape!" Nangong Ye lightly opened his thin lips.
  • Ye Fengwan pouted. She could escape, but those people were waiting outside. If they saw her leaving, they would undoubtedly kill her without hesitation because they would think she was an accomplice! This man, with his good looks, was truly a trouble expert, causing headaches!
  • "If I escape, I have to kill these people first!" After saying this, she rushed out!
  • The hidden assassins revealed themselves and engaged in a fierce battle with her. Her moves were incredibly unpredictable, surprising the assassins and leaving them in shock. Despite being a small woman, every move she made was ruthless, targeting vital points. The ordinary dagger in her hand became a deadly weapon, capable of silencing her enemies with every strike. In an instant, half of the assassins were dead!
  • Nangong Ye's eyes darkened, and for a moment, he couldn't discern her martial arts background. But she was undeniably powerful! Even someone like him, who was accustomed to killing, felt a sense of fear!
  • Suddenly, a killer's long sword attacked Ye Fengwan's back of the head. She was entangled with another assassin and couldn't spare any attention. She watched as the long sword was about to pierce her skull!
  • "Be careful!" Nangong Ye couldn't help but shout anxiously.
