While both Xu Zhouming’s hands grabbed two downward pointing blades, the abrupt sense of danger he felt prompted him to look up and see the butterfly knife that Yun Jian had flicked toward him.
“Leopard Head, come back, stop acting impulsively!” Xu Zhouzheng’s old friend who was Bear.Might’s underling shouted at him.—Leopard Head was Xu Zhouming’s moniker.
Although Bear.Might did not tell his underlings Yun Jian’s identity as their boss of Gu Sha Mercenaries, these men who had come with Bear.Might today had met Yun Jian before back in the catacomb. They had all witnessed her ability!
Forget about Xu Zhouming. Just the fact that Yun Jian had gone through the stone cave in the catacomb with a barrage of flying arrows and shooting darts, that no one else other than Si Yi, Ya Dang, and Mo Sen were able to, had already deemed her more skilled than everyone here in the event combined!
This was why Xu Zhouming’s old friend shouted at him.
In spite of it, Xu Zhouming was already blinded by his grudge. His younger brother was dead! He wanted this woman to be buried, even if he had to die himself!
As Xu Zhouming held the downward bladed knives, he sidestepped amidst everyone’s cry of terror and huge retreat while they watched.
However, Yun Jian had tossed the butterfly knife at a speed so fast and a strength so powerful that Xu Zhouming’s left shoulder was still stabbed by the blade even though he managed to avoid the deadly blow.
Said man had already charged to a short distance one meter away from Yun Jian now, but both his hands armed with the knives that were about to swing toward Yun Jian paused visibly.
Other than gangsters, there were business tycoons and politicians who attended the gathering—many of them had brought their children along to the event too. Regardless of their identity, all of them were baffled at the sharp turn of events.
Blood! There was really blood spilled! Yun Jian had just gone and stabbed the butterfly knife into Xu Zhouming’s left shoulder! She was too fast and too ferocious! Even Xu Zhouming who was a member of Gu Sha Mercenaries got his shoulder injured by her—he could not escape her attack!
“Ah! Die! Go to hell!” The stab on his left shoulder had caused a distinct freeze in Xu Zhouming’s action before he snapped out of it and growled wildly, pouncing toward Yun Jian with his two knives.
Everyone gasped. If Dai Qingqing, who stood afar, was not stopped by Grandpa Cai, she would have bolted to Yun Jian immediately.
Nonetheless, Xu Zhouming’s momentary lapse when his left shoulder was stabbed was more than enough time for Yun Jian to kill him.
She narrowed her eyes slightly and as everyone watched, she sprinted two light steps forward. Her long lean legs were wrapped in pants but there was a reveling beauty about them.
While everyone was enraptured by that charm, Yun Jian bent her legs and gently shifted her weight to one foot before she sprang toward Xu Zhouming’s left.
From the moment Xu Zhouming had brandished his two downward pointing blades to pounce at Yun Jian, to the moment Yun Jian flicked her butterfly knife into the man’s left shoulder, and to this current instant, it had only been nothing more than 20 seconds!
The exchange between experts, however, usually meant that variables were abundant and unexpected within the short duration of time.
In the blink of an eye, Yun Jian was already a step ahead of Xu Zhouming as she gripped the butterfly knife embedded in the man’s left shoulder.
Everyone felt their eyes twitch, a dreaded sense of premonition washed over all of them.
The next second, they saw Yun Jian’s hand on the blade that was stuck on Xu Zhouming’s left shoulder before she dragged the butterfly knife and drew it toward where Xu Zhouming’s heart was!
“Ah!” Xu Zhouming’s reaction was slower. When he caught up to the situation, the area from his left shoulder to his left chest where his heart was, was already cut open in a gory gash!
Next, Xu Zhouming was already falling backward with widened eyes.
Everyone felt their hair standing having witnessed such a bloody sight without any mental preparation. Yun Jian actually dared kill a member of the Gu Sha Mercenaries! How dare she!
