Qin Ningyi swept her gaze toward Huo Rou and An An, only to see Chen Long excitedly about to stand up and rush over. "Be careful!" wAp.kanshu伍.net
A figure moved like lightning.
"Shen Feng!" An An coughed violently, his eyes filled with anxiety.
Before the man could launch his hidden weapon, Shen Feng bit his arm. No matter how the man punched or kicked, Shen Feng refused to let go.
Huo Rou looked over upon hearing An An's shout. Shen Feng's eyes were ferocious. Despite being thrown to the ground heavily by the man, Shen Feng still held on.
Meeting Huo Rou's gaze.
Shen Feng let out a low growl.
It needed a comrade.
Huo Rou was momentarily stunned.
The man seemed impervious to pain and thrashed wildly, finally flinging Shen Feng away a short distance.
Shen Feng shook its fur, baring its teeth at the man. It showed no fear, its eyes burning with the will to fight.
Another growl echoed.
It seemed to be saying to Huo Rou: My master, come quickly! Fight!
It pounced on the man again.
"A beast dares to seek death!" The man fired his hidden weapon.
Two sharp sounds pierced the air, and the projectiles were knocked to the ground.
Shen Feng roared excitedly, tackled the man, and clamped its jaws around his throat.
The man struggled for a moment.
"Bang—" Another sound.
His head suddenly lolled to the side, his hands dropping limply.
He stared wide-eyed towards Huo Rou's position, directly meeting the dark muzzle of a gun.
Huo Rou covered An An's eyes and calmly lowered the gun.
"Chi You..." the man uttered two words, blood trickling from his mouth.
Shen Feng retreated to Huo Rou's side, standing beside her with imposing dignity.
Animals could not speak, nor did they show expressions, but Huo Rou could feel its elation.
She was lost in thought for a moment.
In Shen Feng's world, there were only two things.
One was her, and the other was battle.
Its joy stemmed from these two things.
Yet, a fierce battle was different for Shen Feng.
"Little You," Chen Long said, supporting himself. Though weak, his words were resonant, "You can fear, but you cannot evade."
He had heard Huo Rou's words earlier and looked at her with a solemn, stern gaze for the first time. "Your father knew you were upstairs, but he still chose to fight."
Chen Long left it at that.
He understood, but could not agree, if she chose to retreat into her shell because of danger.
Huo Rou hugged An An tightly and reached out to stroke Shen Feng beside her.
A gentle breeze blew, feeling somewhat cold.
"Young Master Qin, what is Chi You?" Qin Ningyi approached with Gu Yan's people, and one of them asked in confusion.
They had only heard of a Chi You, but what did that Chi You from the Battle Flag Alliance have to do with these people?
"Just now, they kept clamoring to kill Chi You. What is this..."
Qin Ningyi recalled the text message he had received and, for the first time, seriously connected that message with recent events.
"Perhaps..."
Were they trying to kill Chi You?
Qin Ningyi was perplexed.
Hearing these two words, however, Huo Rou's eyes flickered.
She was the target. What was the point of her bringing An An back to Daolin Village?
Kete had set his sights on her, and BDD had also targeted her.
She had nowhere left to retreat.
Suddenly, she remembered something.
"Uncle Chen, where were you and An An when you were..."
They didn't go far. How could they have suddenly been targeted? BDD's goals had always been clear. Why would they suddenly go after An An and Chen Long?
"We didn't go far. Little Qin's phone suddenly rang, and An An answered it. Then those two cars rushed over."
"The phone?"
A thought sparked in Huo Rou's mind. This tactic...
Kete's plan proposal flashed before her eyes.
