The Beautiful Devil (1)
At this point, Bai Ye had a better understanding of Qing Xuantian’s psychology. She expected Qing Xuantian would try to get the jump on her and decided to make the first move.
The speed at which Bai Ye moved surprised Qing Xuantian. He did not manage to stop her escape.
“Get her!” he shouted to his men.
Beyond the Bai family estate, the Qingyun soldiers emerged from the shadows. The swiftest of the group managed to block Bai Ye’s advance.
The two soldiers did not expect the girl to lunge at their throats. Her movements were lightning-fast and her aim was accurate. The murderous intent emanating from the girl was frightening. Startled, they took a few steps back.
Bai Ye took advantage of the gap and darted forward like an arrow. She headed straight for the tree-covered hills.
“Chase after her! Go!” Qing Xuantian and his group of soldiers went after Bai Ye.
The large party entered the forest but they were too slow. She slipped through the bushes and trees like a native animal, disappearing without a trace.
This...
F*ck!
“Master, should I kill them all?” The smile frightened the bodyguard so much that he immediately offered to handle the situation himself.
Everyone in the household knew a smile meant heads would roll. A neutral expression was acceptable but a smile from their master was ominous. Goddamnit! They were done for!
His master did not answer. Instead, he made his own move. The bodyguard cursed under his breath.
“F*ck!”
Blood would fill the rivers of this village. The bodyguard sighed in frustration.
A second passed.
Bai Ye, who was still hidden among the tree leaves, suddenly noticed a man in a black silk robe standing on the branch she was on.
She felt her hackles raised in the mere seconds of studying the man shrouded in darkness. He had a menacing aura and exuded a dangerous beauty, like a poppy flower, arresting in many ways.
His cold, iridescent eyes watched her dispassionately from the tree covers. Bai Ye felt his devilish gaze pierce through her soul.
