At this moment, two girls dressed casually entered the shop. They wore hip-hop clothes and seemed to have come in for hot and sour noodles.

Chu Qing was expressionless, but the spiritual energy in his body began to circulate.

There seems to be something wrong with these two people!

Although the two of them looked casual, their pockets were bulging. Chu Qing activated his spiritual energy to detect them. Both of them had knives in their pockets!

Not only that, but they had also been following Chu Qing and the rest since they left the school. If it was just along the way, why were they carrying knives?

The two of them sat not far behind them, exuding a faint killing intent.

Chu Qing smiled helplessly.

Why does trouble always come knocking on my door?

“What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Chu Qing shook his head. It seemed like Tang Ziyan did not realize that danger was approaching quietly. She had been nurtured into a business-type talent. Chu Qing could not feel any internal energy fluctuations from her.

Ancient martial artists had a strong aura due to their years of accumulating internal strength. This internal strength could protect and strengthen their bodies. Even elderly Tai Chi practitioners in public squares had some internal strength, though not as much as the ancient martial artists.

“Hot and sour noodles, coming up!”

The boss shouted. Tang Ziyan was about to stand up when Chu Qing held her.

“I’ll go.”

Without waiting for Tang Ziyan to reply, Chu Qing stood up and walked towards the food counter.

Just as he stood up, the two women looked at each other and saw the killing intent in each other’s eyes.

They suddenly stood up and walked towards Tang Ziyan. A cold light appeared in the blades in their hands.

“Get lost!”

Chu Qing yelled and splashed a bowl of hot and sour noodles on one of the women’s faces. It scalded her so much that she cried out and fell to the ground!

At this moment, Tang Ziyan also heard the commotion behind her. She turned around and saw a woman walking towards her with a murderous expression. In her hand was a razor-sharp blade!

Oh no!

Coming from a prestigious family, Tang Ziyan naturally knew that they were here for her!

Gritting her teeth, she grabbed the chopsticks on the table and threw them at the woman. However, the woman appeared experienced. It was obvious that she was a veteran!

She quickly swung the knife toward Tang Ziyan’s abdomen. Despite being in good shape, Tang Ziyan had never fought with another woman before!

At the critical moment, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in front of her.

Slash!

That was the sound of a knife piercing into flesh. Tang Ziyan was stunned. She suddenly felt that her hand on Chu Qing’s waist was wet. She lifted her hand and saw that it was covered in blood!

Chu Qing frowned as he didn’t anticipate the attackers’ ruthlessness, using a lethal move as soon as they struck. He couldn’t even defend himself in time!

“Chu Qing!”

Tang Ziyan screamed in terror. Chu Qing took a knife for her, saving her from a pool of blood!

Chu Qing’s golden eyes glimmered with intensity. His clothes billowed in the wind, making him look like a divine weapon. The immense pressure caused the dagger in his body to fly off and impale into the wall!

That woman spared no mercy as well. When she saw that her killing move had failed, she targeted Chu Qing’s back with rich power coalesced in her palm. If this palm landed, Chu Qing would definitely be injured.

“Sword Array!”

Chu Qing yelled, and a golden sword array appeared on his back. That palm directly shattered the sword array and hit his back. Blood flowed from the corner of Chu Qing’s mouth. He did not expect to suffer such a huge loss today. Killing intent started to take over him!

Chu Qing lifted Tang Ziyan up by the waist, protecting her and distancing himself from the two assailants.

“Go! They’re here for me!”

Tang Ziyan was terrified, but she tried to push Chu Qing away. Chu Qing stood there without moving. His waist injury had already been forcefully sealed by spiritual energy. At least for the time being, it would not bleed.

“Go? How can I leave…”

Chu Qing shrugged with an extremely firm expression.

“You rascal!” Tang Ziyan’s expression instantly darkened as she scolded, “You’re just a boy. You’ll distract me by being here!”
