The Daughter Of Destiny Broke Off The Engagement? I Married Her Sister Instead.

Chapter 55 Praying Mantis Stalks Cicada, Butterfly Follows

In the moment Chu Qianqiu sensed this aura, he froze on the spot, as if waiting for death, in a daze.

He knew that if he moved forward now, it would be pure suicide. If he stayed in place, he might live a little longer.

Even for a brief moment, he thought about turning around and running back, thinking about killing the people behind him to try and escape.

However, in that instant, the powerful figure in front of him made a move and charged towards him.

Consciously, Chu Qianqiu closed his eyes, thinking that in his next life, he should just be a nobody and not casually wander around, ultimately losing his life.

But after a long time, he realized that the expert in front of him wasn't targeting him, but the group of people behind him.

Several screams followed, followed by a deathly silence.

Chu Qianqiu slowly opened his eyes, then turned around and found that the expert was already close, staring at him intently.

"Damn... so terrifying!"

"If you want to kill, just kill directly. Why play these tricks?"

Facing the figure in front of him, Chu Qianqiu, on the brink of life and death, made a joke.

It didn't matter anymore. Nothing mattered anymore.

After all, now, no matter what he said, he would die. Why couldn't he face it with a smile?

He was just grateful that he wasn't the first to die, but the people opposite him.

It seemed that this expert wasn't with those people.

Furthermore, this expert seemed to be a woman. He could already smell the fragrance and faint scent of blood from her, as he was too close.

"Are you with them?"

Time froze for a moment.

The woman in front had yet to make a move, instead saying this.

Her voice in the night was like a nightingale, cold and somewhat pleasant to listen to.

Chu Qianqiu raised an eyebrow, daring to turn on the flashlight and shine it on her true face.

He finally saw that the person who had come was a beautiful woman holding a sword, with long flowing hair and ethereal clothes, likely a cultivator from a sect.

"So it's a fairy lady, you're really beautiful."

"You're about the same age as me, yet so strong, truly impressive."

"Hey... did you hear what I said?"

"Are you with them?"

Seeing that the young man in front didn't answer, only praising her beauty, the woman with the sword became somewhat displeased and asked again.

Of course, Chu Qianqiu didn't mean it. He was just testing this fairy lady, wondering why she would ask such a pointless question. If she killed him directly and searched his body, wouldn't it be clear?

"Just kill me directly, then it'll be clear."

"I don't want to be killed by you with a sword after I say something."

"I'm too familiar with this kind of plot, don't think you can trick me."

"...."

"What, do you really want to die like this?"

"Did I say I want to kill you?"

Upon hearing the young man's words, a strange expression appeared on the woman's cold and stern face.

She decided not to ask further and instead walked to the side, starting to examine the bodies of the people she had just killed.

"Forget it, I won't bother with someone like you at the Foundation Building stage."

"Just now, this group of people was chasing after you, so I assume you're not their accomplice."

Saying this, the woman no longer paid attention to Chu Qianqiu and busied herself with the corpses on the ground.

"The emblem of the White Night Society, turns out they're not from the Axe Control Sect."

"It seems I made a mistake, I was too panicked just now."

"They haven't found me yet."

After confirming the identities of the dead bodies underground, the woman stood up again and flew onto a branch in the forest, as if searching for some aura or trace.

Chu Qianqiu didn't dare to leave. He knew that even if he didn't die now, it would be impossible to escape from the hands of this powerful woman.

Seeing this woman, he lost interest in the dead members of the Baiye Club and approached them, looting their belongings with a smirk.

"To the end, you still care about money. I'm beyond help."

"These people are actually from the Baiye Club, claiming to avenge my third uncle..."

"So, my third uncle was working for the Baiye Club before he was expelled, in this bloody killing field."

"No wonder these guys don't sleep at night and come to the Wanshou Mountain Range to hunt me down, talking about revenge. I'm just curious... how did they know that I killed my third uncle?"

"I thought I handled the body well?"

Chu Qianqiu speculated in his mind, completely clueless.

But he finally knew the reason for being chased today, which resolved a lingering worry.

If he could safely leave this place now, go back to take care of family matters, and solve the leader of the Baiye Club along the way, that would be even better.

"May I leave, miss?"

Looking up, he shouted loudly towards the trees in the sky.

Chu Qianqiu was very polite, knowing that before leaving, it was best to ask if the other person agreed or not.

"Why are you suddenly shouting so loudly?"

"Don't speak!"

After hearing the sound, the female swordsman immediately returned to his side like a gust of wind. Her speed was so fast that Chu Qianqiu was intimidated and had no thoughts of escaping.

"Miss, um... fairy, since we have no grievances and you don't intend to kill me, can you let me go home?"

"I have an elderly person and a young child at home, and a one-year-old daughter waiting for me to earn money to take care of..."

Chu Qianqiu sincerely pleaded, hoping this woman would spare him.

He thought, since there was nothing else going on between them and they had no connection, why did she keep bothering him? It was really strange!

"No, you can't leave."

"You have to stay and protect me."

The woman in the fairy-like attire sheathed her sword, her expression cold, and slowly spoke.

Upon hearing this, Chu Qianqiu was dumbfounded, thinking that there must be something wrong with his ears. He couldn't believe it.

"Haha, are you kidding me?"

"You want me to protect you?"

"I'll take a hook... to protect, cough cough."

Shocked, Chu Qianqiu never expected that as a Foundation Building stage cultivator, he would have difficulty dealing with a few people from the Baiye Club and be asked for protection.

And this female swordsman, with just a single move, easily killed the enemy, as if it was a piece of cake.

Now, such a powerful person refused to let him leave and said that he had to protect her?

He couldn't comprehend it and thought, Fairy, are you interested in me? How could you keep someone like this?

"Why are you making such an exaggerated expression? Isn't this normal?"

"Consider it as me owing you a favor."

The woman with the sword opened and closed her mouth again, completely serious.

Chu Qianqiu listened and felt a bit disdainful, but the other party's strength was indeed real. He could only reluctantly agree, first ask about this person's background, and then consider whether to agree or not.

"Alright, if you tell me your name, where you're from, why you're here, and why I should protect you, I'll agree."

"You better not lie. If I don't agree, you'll just be wasting your breath."

"You... have quite the audacity."

Facing the shameless negotiation of the young man in front of her, the woman with the sword was also speechless. She had never seen someone with such ordinary cultivation who remained calm in the face of danger and even dared to joke with her.
