Chapter 2026 You are so arrogant
Zhou Lie stared at his subordinate who had lost his knife, spitting almost into his face: "Useless! If you can't even get a woman, what's the point of keeping you?"
He raised his wrist, and the two sturdy men behind him immediately stepped forward, the steel knives in their hands shining coldly in the light.
Su Shengsheng gripped the dagger tightly in her hand, her fingertips rubbing against the rough handle, and her already trembling arms tensed even more - one against three, she knew her chances of winning were slim, but the girls' breathing coming from behind made it impossible for her to retreat.
"Miss Su, if you have any sense, put down the knife to avoid physical pain." The man on the left spoke with a tone full of disdain.
Su Shengsheng didn't respond, but just held the dagger horizontally in front of him, moved back slightly, and protected the girls behind him who were huddled together in fear more closely.
Zhou Lie crossed his arms over his chest, a smug smile on his face. "Su Shengsheng, you're tough, but can you really eat toughness? I wonder how long you can hold on."
In just half an incense stick of time, the sweat on Su Shengsheng's forehead flowed down his cheeks, and his arm was almost hit by the steel knife.
She dodged the knife coming at her from the front, and when she turned around she was kicked in the lower back. She stumbled and bumped into the door frame behind her, causing the girls to gasp.
"Be careful!" Girl number nine's voice trembled and her face turned pale with anxiety.
Zhou Lie was watching with great interest, when he suddenly remembered something and raised his hand to call for a halt: "Wait! Don't hurt Miss Su."
He took two steps forward, his eyes swirling around Su Shengsheng with malicious intent, "Keep her, I still have some use for her."
These words were like sparks falling into an oil barrel. Su Shengsheng looked up suddenly, and the anger in his eyes almost overflowed.
The girl number nine behind her turned pale instantly, and her fingers were digging into the hem of her skirt.
Girl number seven couldn't help herself and rushed forward half a step before stopping, her eyes red: "Just admit defeat! Stop struggling in vain! You'll feel better before you die, otherwise..."
Su Shengsheng gritted his teeth, his cheeks puffed up slightly, and the words that rolled out of his throat were full of determination: "Even if I die, I will never admit defeat!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who had been stopped suddenly moved.
He walked around to Su Shengsheng's side and put his elbow directly on her chest.
Su Shengsheng groaned, his chest felt like it was hit by a huge rock. He couldn't breathe and took three steps back.
She hurriedly stabbed the dagger into the ground, using the tip of the knife to support herself from falling. A fishy and sweet taste surged in her throat, and she could no longer hold it back, so she spat a mouthful of blood onto the ground, staining the bluestone slab red.
The girls couldn't bear it any longer and surrounded her to help her, but Su Shengsheng waved his hand to stop them.
She was just about to say "It's okay" when the three men rushed over again, with the steel knives pointing straight at her face.
Su Shengsheng pushed the girls back, gritted her teeth and raised her knife to meet the enemy, but her strength was already exhausted. After only two or three rounds, she was hit hard on the back again. She staggered and fell to the ground, spitting out another mouthful of blood, staining the front of her clothes red.
The men stopped, looked back at Zhou Lie, and waited for his instructions.
Zhou Lie narrowed his eyes and watched Su Shengsheng slowly stand up. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and said in a hoarse but firm voice: "Come again!"
Once, twice, three times... Su Shengsheng fell down and stood up again, spitting out more blood each time than before. The dagger in her hand shook more and more violently, but she never said a soft word.
The scene gradually became silent, even Zhou Lie's breathing became lighter. The only sound was the subtle sound of fabric rubbing against the ground every time Su Shengsheng stood up, and her repeated "Come again".
The girls' eyes were all red. Girl number nine covered her mouth with her hands, tears silently falling down, but no one tried to persuade her to give in - they knew that Su Shengsheng was a stubborn person, and once she made a decision, no one could change it.
Zhou Lie stared at Su Shengsheng's staggering figure, his eyes filled with growing impatience. He sneered, "You're truly fearless of death. In that case, I'll give you a ride so you don't have to worry about it."
He swung his hand down fiercely, and the three men immediately understood. They drew their steel knives and pointed the tips of the knives directly at Su Shengsheng's heart. Their speed was several times faster than before.
The timid girls were so scared that they quickly closed their eyes, and some even covered their ears, not daring to listen to the following sound.
Su Shengsheng widened her eyes, her gaze fixed on the approaching knife tip. She had only one belief in her heart: even if she died, she had to watch with her eyes open. She couldn't be a coward, couldn't let these people laugh at her, and couldn't let the girls behind her think that it was wrong to follow her.
The tip of the knife was getting closer and closer, almost touching her collar. Su Shengsheng could even feel the coldness of the steel knife.
At this moment, several cold lights suddenly shot out from the rear, so fast that people could not see clearly.
Immediately afterwards, there were three muffled "puff, puff" sounds, and the three men opposite suddenly stopped, and then fell to the ground with a thud. Blood gushed out from the wounds on their backs, and soon formed a pool on the ground.
Su Shengsheng was stunned, his eyes widened even more. Before he could react to what was happening, Zhou Lie, who was standing beside him, suddenly let out a scream. He was kicked out with great force, hit the wall and slid to the ground, grimacing in pain.
But this was not the end. Before he could move, a figure rushed over and stepped on his back with such force that Zhou Lie groaned and spit out blood.
Only then did Su Shengsheng see the person clearly - he was dressed in a dark suit, with an upright posture. His face no longer had the usual honest and clear look, but was replaced by endless majesty, and his small eyes were full of intimidating murderous intent.
It was the silver ingot.
Su Shengsheng's mouth opened unconsciously, and her heart was filled with shock: Is this still that little straw bag? How can he be so powerful! This time he saved her again!
Zhou Lie was trampled to the point of being unable to move. He could only turn around and stare at the silver ingot, his voice hoarse: "You...why is it you? Aren't you in the valley?"
Shouldn't he be dead?
Yinding looked down at him, his eyes as cold as ice.
The girls around were also stunned. Those who had just closed their eyes out of fear now opened their eyes wide and looked at the silver ingot that suddenly appeared. They forgot to speak for a moment. The only sounds left at the scene were Zhou Lie's groan of pain and Yinding's steady breathing.
Just as everyone was still in shock, a cold voice suddenly came from the courtyard gate. It was so penetrating that everyone subconsciously looked over: "Zhou Lie, you are so arrogant."
Yan Ruyu and Huo Changhe walked out from the shadows. They were unharmed, and their aura was cold, like two unsheathed swords, their sharp edges fully exposed.
Not only the girls, but Su Shengsheng also held his breath and was stunned at this moment.
In her cognition, her father was the person with the most powerful aura, but this time...
Yan Ruyu took a look at the silver ingot, and the silver ingot immediately brought Zhou Lie over.
Yan Ruyu looked down at him condescendingly, and Zhou Lie's heart trembled. He felt that this gaze was like a sharp blade, piercing through his chest.
