Chapter 107 - Saving Someone
Chapter 107: Saving Someone
Kong Rui walked steadily towards the high platform and stood about a meter away from Zi Xuan.
Zi Xuan had already sat up straight and stared at Kong Rui as she said, “Take off your veil.”
Kong Rui chuckled lightly, and the veil swayed gently with the wind. “What’s wrong? Do you suspect that I’m her? I’m not her. Don’t worry.”
Zi Xuan looked at Kong Rui suspiciously. After a while, as if she had finally confirmed that Kong Rui wasn’t that person, she said, “What exactly do you know?”
“I know far more than you would want me to know,” Kong Rui said mysteriously. Her voice wasn’t loud, but everyone present could hear her.
Zi Xuan’s expression darkened. “What do you want?”
Kong Rui shook her head gently. “I just don’t want you to kill the innocent. Let that child go and I will leave with this secret.”
“Do you think you can escape from me?” Zi Xuan snorted coldly. Clearly, she knew the strength of the woman in front of her.
Kong Rui shook her head. “Of course I can’t defeat you, but you might not be able to deal with the Lei family!”
“What do you mean?!” Zi Xuan’s expression changed slightly when she heard the mention of the Lei family.
When Kong Rui saw Zi Xuan’s expression, she knew that she had guessed correctly.
As expected, this woman had something to do with the Lightning Leopard’s death. Lei Aotian might even be in her hands!
As Kong Rui observed Zi Xuan’s expression, she asked again, “It seems that you know the owner of this Lightning Leopard?”
“Or are you involved in its death, and even its owner’s death?”
Zi Xuan’s expression became increasingly unpleasant. Her eyes were fixed on Mu Li, and she wished she could see the person’s appearance through the veil.
Suddenly, Zi Xuan revealed a smile. “Are you testing me?”
When she saw that Zi Xuan had realized it, Kong Rui’s heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t show it. She asked, “What do you think?”
Zi Xuan gritted her teeth. “I don’t care if you know the owner of this leopard or not, nor do I care if he’s from the Lei family. Today, I’m going to execute that demon here. Don’t get in the way!”
Zi Xuan’s impatience had already revealed what she was worried about.
Kong Rui blinked and suddenly pointed at the Lightning Leopard. “Alright! Then let’s get the elders of the Lei family to confirm if this is their Eldest Young Master’s intrinsic spirit beast!”
With that, Kong Rui suddenly darted towards the place where the leopard’s head was hanging.
At the same time, Chao Bai also flew towards the child and quickly carried him down from the pillar.
Kong Rui picked up the leopard head and threw it at a person who happened to pass by outside the crowd with a solemn expression.
The leopard head was suddenly smashed into that person’s arms. Just as he was about to flare up, he felt that it looked familiar.
He took a closer look and realized that it was the intrinsic spirit beast, the Lightning Leopard, that they had been searching for!
With a dark expression, the Lei family’s elder shouted angrily in the direction of the leopard head, “Who is it?!”
Hearing the Lei family’s elder’s voice, Zi Xuan subconsciously narrowed her eyes. She was no longer in the mood to care about the boy who had been snatched away by Chao Bai.
Chao Bai and the boy disappeared from the corner of the street in front of everyone.
Kong Rui also used this moment of distraction to escape from the high platform to the street in the other direction.
Zi Xuan wanted to chase after her, but the Lei family’s elder blocked her way.
“You set up this high platform? You also placed this leopard head here?” The Lei family’s elder’s voice was deafening, causing Zi Xuan to frown.
Zi Xuan knew that the Lei family’s elder wasn’t an easy person to deal with. Her eyes darted around as she thought about how to resolve this predicament.
However, the onlookers clearly didn’t intend to give her a chance to escape.
