Just as Jiang Xue was about to mobilize her spiritual power, the other party launched an attack on her. Fortunately, Jiang Xue was prepared and quickly dodged.
Additionally, she was sowhat familiar with this mountain path, which prevented the opponent from succeeding.
The man saw Jiang Xue manage to dodge and his expression slightly changed. He ordered the person walking behind her, "Move together, catch her!"
The people behind followed suit and also launched an attack at Jiang Xue. At this mont, having dodged their strike, Jiang Xue stepped forward and quickly ran in the direction of the camp.
Initially, she should have run towards the village, but she was worried about Mu Qiancheng, so she wanted to check the camp. She was concerned Mu Qiancheng was truly injured; otherwise, these two n wouldn’t have openly tried to deceive them.
Watching Jiang Xue run away, the two n’s expressions changed. They had finally found an opportunity to capture Mu Qiancheng’s family to threaten him.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xue was so vigilant and discovered their intent.
"Chase!"
One of the n shouted and imdiately chased after Jiang Xue. He had already figured out her plan and wanted to capture her before she reached the camp. Otherwise, their operation would fail again.
Previously, they had set up a wild boar ambush in the mountains, but it only caused Mu Qiancheng to suffer minor injuries. They certainly wouldn’t be in good graces after returning.
In the last mission failure, they had been severely warned. If they failed again this ti, their lives would likely be on the line.
So, not achieving their desire this afternoon, they aid to capture Mu Qiancheng’s family to threaten him into compliance. Unexpectedly, Jiang Xue was so difficult to deal with.
One fleeing, one chasing. After all, Jiang Xue was a woman, her stamina was not as strong as a man’s and she was soon overtaken by them. Seeing Jiang Xue out of breath, the two n beca smug and said, "Run, why won’t you run now?"
Jiang Xue, catching her breath, was on guard against the two n. She really couldn’t run anymore. She originally wanted to enter the space, but the two were too close, so she could only keep running forward.
But it was clear that these two n were trained. Maybe they were, like Mu Qiancheng, from a military background.
"Not running anymore!" Jiang Xue took a breath, then looked at the two, asking, "Who exactly are you and why do you want to catch ?"
The n didn’t answer and moved towards Jiang Xue step by step. Originally, Jiang Xue planned to keep running, but she suddenly thought of the attack she and Mu Qiancheng experienced in the mountains last ti.
Hence, she paused, making plans in her mind. She wanted to figure out who these people were, ideally finding out the mastermind. Otherwise, having this lingering threat was worriso every day.
With this in mind, Jiang Xue simply stopped moving, waiting for them to catch her. Unexpectedly, this made them hesitate, suspecting a trap and not daring to approach.
Seeing this, Jiang Xue was speechless and turned to run again.
After running for a while, Jiang Xue stopped again. With this stop-and-go running, eventually, Jiang Xue was captured by them. After catching Jiang Xue, the two n beca smug and, after tying her hands, took her farther into the mountains.
Jiang Xue noted the path as she walked, taking half an hour to arrive at their destination. Looking around, she realized it wasn’t far from the dense forest they were at last ti.
Recalling what the Little Fox told her last ti, Jiang Xue’s eyes glinted with realization that the people from both incidents were connected.
