deadly mantra

Chapter 454: What’s the use of just letting things happen?
Bao Simu suddenly understood what Ji Qianying meant, and suddenly realized:
"Yeah, so far, I haven't tried my best. Until the last moment, it's still unknown who will win and who will lose."

Hope reignited in Bao Simu's eyes, blood surged in his heart, and he stood up excitedly:

"Mother! What you said is right! I decided that I will pursue him! Until the last moment, who can know that the person who will accompany him to the end will not be me, right? Mother. I..."

Before he finished speaking, Bao Simu suddenly felt a strong murderous aura coming over him. Bao Simu hurriedly lowered his head and looked around downstairs.

Teagoers gathered around the table in twos and threes, eating melon seeds and listening to music. No suspicious person appeared. Was it her imagination?
Bao Simu frowned and sat back on the stool. Still feeling uneasy, he lowered his head again and looked downstairs.

At this moment, the sharp sword light fell rapidly from the beam, and the sword flew directly towards Ji Qianying.

"Madam! Be careful -" Lan'er, who was waiting at the back, saw it first, yelled and rushed forward, pressing Ji Qianying onto the table with her body to block the fatal sword blow.

The sharp sword pierced through Lan'er's body and into the back of Ji Qianying's shoulder.

The ferocious blood instantly dyed Lan'er and Ji Qianying's clothes red.

Bao Simu's pupils shrank violently and shouted:

"mother--"

At the same moment, the red whip in his hand whipped out, forcing the killer away from Ji Qianying.

"Mom! Are you okay? Mom." Bao Simu grabbed Lan'er's shoulders and pushed her body off Ji Qianying's back.

Ji Qianying gave Bao Simu a comforting smile, but there was a fierce light in her eyes:
"This is the first time in my half-life that I, Ji Qianying, have met anyone who dared to attack me in Qixia City."

Bao Simu knew that thanks to Lan'er's loyalty and blocking the sword's momentum, Ji Qianying could be safe and sound. He couldn't help but hold the red whip tightly and gritted his gums:
"Mom, please wait a moment, and my daughter will take you home for treatment."

Ji Qianying nodded and said:

"Stay alive."

Bao Simu nodded slowly:

"My daughter knows." Bao Simu's black eyes narrowed, and he rushed towards the killer with a whip.

The tea patrons downstairs rushed out of the teahouse with their heads in fear. The little girl singing, holding the pipa tightly in her arms, hid under the table, trembling with fear.

The disciples of the Shandao Alliance have rushed upstairs, surrounding Ji Qianying like a copper wall and an iron wall.

After a while, Bao Simu and the killer had exchanged several blows, and the fight was fierce from the second floor to the lobby on the first floor.

The opponent was not Bao Simu's opponent. After several hard battles, flaws gradually emerged. Bao Simu's eyes were fierce and he looked for the flaw without giving his opponent any chance to resist. He kicked him away with several kicks.

"Bang——" With the sound of bones breaking, the killer's shoulder hit the wall hard and rolled to the ground.

The veil slowly fell from her face, revealing that she was a young girl.

The little girl who was singing under the table accidentally bumped into the man's eyes, and both of them were stunned at the same time.

"Xia..." The little girl singing the song froze completely.

Just as Xia Qiu stood up while holding on to the wall, the red whip that was thrown away wrapped around her waist and she fell hard onto the table again.

There was a "coaxing" sound, and the table split into several pieces.

Xia Qiu vomited blood, her body kept twitching due to the huge pain, and she no longer had the strength to resist.

Bao Simu strode over, grabbed Xia Qiu's loose hair, dragged her upstairs, stepped on Xia Qiu's blood-stained face, and said angrily:

"Speak! Who sent you here!"

Xia Qiu half-closed her eyes with a dying breath:
"...No one...no one ordered...it was me...myself..."
