Chapter 321 - Intimidating One-eyed Ba
Xue Qiming carried the girl on his back, stepping forward toward the village gate, leaving behind a chaotic field of fallen men and overturned horses.
One-eyed Ba’s expression shifted repeatedly as his gaze flickered between Xue Qiming’s face and Grandfather Lan Zhuo. However, Grandfather Lan Zhuo had long since lost interest in him, the old man's full attention fixated on the girl.
When they were still some distance away from Grandfather Lan Zhuo and One-eyed Ba, Xue Niang patted Xue Qiming’s shoulder, then swiftly slid down from his back and strode toward them.
Grandfather Lan Zhuo wasn't the first to greet her. Instead, a tall and imposing figure stepped forward to block her path. One of the Dark Miao personal guards standing by One-Eyed Ba's side intercepted her.
"Where did this thief come from? How dare you cause trouble here."
With that, the guard spread his palm wide and pressed down toward Xue Niang’s head.
Grandfather Lan Zhuo, startled back to his senses by the scene, erupted in a furious roar.
"You dare?!"
Someone else moved even faster.
Before anyone could react, a shadow flashed before them. A whip-like kick tore through the forest air with a sharp gust!
Bang!
In an instant, the Dark Miao guard was punted away like a leather ball. His body hurtled through the air with a resounding impact before crashing into the distant crowd.
