Chapter 117
Silence.
An unprecedented quiet filled the collection room.
No one could have imagined that in such a short moment, the situation would change so dramatically. Those who were about to be slaughtered like fish on a chopping board had, in the blink of an eye, transformed from hostages to captors. Even An Xiaoxi herself was surprised.
The sudden reversal was composed of a series of unexpected events.
The first surprise was the outburst of the Chengyuan Sword.
An Xiaoxi’s initial plan was to buy time through acting, waiting for rescue from the Special Case Investigation Team. She had a clear understanding of the power difference between the two sides and never thought she could turn the tables relying solely on the Chengyuan Sword.
Who could have guessed that the Chengyuan Sword would suddenly unleash such terrifying power, crippling a skilled martial artist!
And in that instant when the man screamed and rolled on the ground, An Xiaoxi saw an opportunity!
An opportunity not just to stall for time and hope for rescue, but to take control of her own fate and snatch life from the jaws of death!
