Shu Yu knew Jiang Kuanyu was behind her, so when the subordinate ca in, she made no move. Only after Jiang Kuanyu entered did she kick the door shut with a ’bang’.
At the sa ti, the sleeve arrow in her hand shot towards Jiang Kuanyu with a ’swish’, while Young Master He and the mountain bandit raised their weapons to strike at that subordinate.
However, Jiang Kuanyu was overly cautious and moved extrely swiftly. As soon as he heard the door closing, he quickly grabbed the subordinate in front of him as a shield.
As a result, Shu Yu’s sleeve arrow hit that subordinate, while Young Master He’s and the mountain bandit’s clubs aid for Jiang Kuanyu.
The subordinate fell to the ground, Jiang Kuanyu staggered but still swiftly drew a dagger and dashed to Uncle ng’s side, pressing the dagger against his neck. "Don’t move, or I’ll kill him," he said urgently.
Having taken a blow to the head with the club, Jiang Kuanyu felt dizzy and forcefully pinched his thigh.
But when he got a clear look at the three people in the room, shock flashed in his eyes, a disbelief he couldn’t conceal.
Three people, besides Uncle ng, there were actually three more people in the room.
Including the one who had just run out as bait, the black market had infiltrated four people!!
This completely exceeded Jiang Kuanyu’s expectations. Facing Shu Yu’s cold sleeve arrow tip, his palms began to sweat.
"Take off the sleeve arrow, or I won’t be polite," Jiang Kuanyu demanded harshly.
Shu Yu squinted, slowly unfastened the sleeve arrow from her arm, and threw it to the ground.
Jiang Kuanyu glanced at Young Master He and the mountain bandit; they exchanged a look with Shu Yu. When she nodded, they reluctantly dropped their clubs and chair legs to the floor as well.
Jiang Kuanyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and ordered Shu Yu, "Open the door, let out."
The dagger pressed closer against Uncle ng’s neck as Jiang Kuanyu urged, "Hurry up."
Shu Yu placed her hand on the doorknob, causing Young Master He and the mountain bandit to grow anxious.
No, don’t, opening this door would let all the bandits outside rush in, and they’d have no choice but to surrender. Don’t open it.
With a ’creak’, Shu Yu opened a crack, then suddenly had a thought and said, "Young Master Jiang, can I ask you two questions?"
Hearing her speak, Jiang Kuanyu was stunned for a mont, "You..." The voice was very familiar.
He instinctively scrutinized Shu Yu’s appearance. He hadn’t looked closely before, but now the more he examined her features, the more familiar they seed.
Monts later, his eyes widened suddenly, "Monarch Lu Xiang?"
Monarch Lu Xiang? Young Master He and the mountain bandit, hearing this title, lifted their heads in astonishnt simultaneously.
This young lady in front of them was a village chief???
Jiang Kuanyu truly didn’t expect to see Shu Yu here; for a mont, his mind was in disarray.
It was in this very mont that Shu Yu raised her other hand, and with a ’swish’, the sleeve arrow on her wrist directly struck Jiang Kuanyu’s right hand holding the dagger.
With a cry of pain, he dropped the dagger, and the nearby mountain bandit’s eyes lit up at seeing this familiar action.
Previously, he had also been aiming to blow a whistle when he got shot in the wrist by her.
So whether out of reflex or wanting Jiang Kuanyu to suffer along with him, he didn’t hesitate to pounce, pinning Jiang Kuanyu underneath him as soon as he saw the dagger fall.
"Get off," Jiang Kuanyu reached out to push him away.
But he’d already taken a few hits in a beast chase before, and now, with his right hand shot through, he had no strength left, getting solidly pinned down.
