Chapter 416: Chapter 444 Unexpected (Third Update)
"Something’s wrong!" Lin Xi said softly, it was clearly abnormal that there was no one here.
Because it wasn’t just a few people, but two classes plus Yang Feifei and others, totaling seventy to eighty people.
They had all dispersed earlier, each busy with their own tasks.
How come now there’s no one in sight? Clearly, something has happened!
If Yang Feifei had gathered everyone together, there was no reason to leave here since neither she nor Ding Yueqiu was present, and no message or phone call notification was received. More importantly, the pots and pans on the ground showed signs of being toppled over.
Judging by this, something unusual has occurred!
At that moment, Lin Xi suddenly turned his head, grabbed Ding Yueqiu by the neck with one hand, lifted her up, and a hint of killing intent appeared on his face, "Is it your people?"
Ding Yueqiu was dumbfounded. The killing intent emanating from Lin Xi felt like a prehistoric beast, making her feel as if she was a weak rabbit in front of it, not daring to resist at all.
If she knew that this was just a sliver of Lin Xi’s killing intent, she would definitely be even more shocked!
"Let... let go of me!" Ding Yueqiu weakly grasped Lin Xi’s hand, pleading while gasping for breath, "No... not my people, you you... you misunderstood!"
At this moment, her face turned blue, not only unable to breathe, her neck seemed like it was about to be snapped by Lin Xi.
Only then did Lin Xi reluctantly let go of his grip, and Ding Yueqiu fell to the ground helplessly with a ’bang’.
"Not your people?" Lin Xi stared at her, ready to mercilessly kill her if she dared to lie even a bit.
Ding Yueqiu, disregarding her discomfort, looked at Lin Xi fearfully, "No, no, no, I’m just by myself, I have no other companions!"
"Moreover, making so many people disappear, one or two people wouldn’t be able to accomplish that."
"Furthermore, Instructor Yang and those few soldiers have undeniable strength, so I suspect there must be quite a few invaders, possibly armed."
"Otherwise, without even a sound, everyone went missing, it doesn’t make sense."
Lin Xi nodded, he could see that Ding Yueqiu wasn’t lying, and there was no reason for her to lie now as her life was in his hands.
He also realized that, after calming down, it probably had nothing to do with Ding Yueqiu, after all, she was an assassin, and generally these people acted alone, at most in pairs or threes under special circumstances.
"Well then, let’s see who has the audacity!"
Not to mention others unaware of his identity, but Yang Feifei is the granddaughter of a military bigwig, provoking her, are they really tired of living?
Then Lin Xi closed his eyes, focusing all his attention on his hearing. He believed, even if there was an accident, they couldn’t have gone far in just a short time.
Within less than a minute, Lin Xi opened his eyes, looked towards the small hill he had slept on before, and said in a low voice, "Over there!"
In the next moment, Ding Yueqiu saw Lin Xi’s figure flash and he was already five meters away, completely on a different level than when he was chasing her earlier, without making a sound!
"This time his speed was probably not even half utilized!"
At this moment, she felt a bit dazed, from the glimpse of killing intent he showed to the current speed, it was an all-around overwhelming superiority.
At this moment, Ding Yueqiu lost all hope.
Initially, she held onto a sliver of hope, looking for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to Lin Xi and then find the antidote.
In less than ten seconds, Lin Xi was crouched on the hill, looking at the scene below and frowned, "In Xia Country’s borders, how could such a group appear?"
After a while, Ding Yueqiu finally caught up, also crouching next to Lin Xi, but when she looked down, her face turned serious instantly.
"It’s them?"
"How is that possible?"
"Why are they here?"
