Chapter 8: Kill
With a whoosh, the crossbow bolt suddenly shot towards the man's throat with lightning speed. After piercing through his neck, it nailed to the ground with a whoosh.
The man didn't even have time to react. He just widened his eyes in disbelief and struggled to make a "hehe" sound. In the end, he fell to the ground with an indignant expression.
Gu Yundong heaved a sigh of relief and carefully walked in with the crossbow.
She had only taken two steps when she heard staggering footsteps coming from inside the house.
Gu Yundong suddenly stopped in her tracks and aimed the crossbow in her hand at the door.
Soon, a man stumbled out of the house. He covered his arm with one hand and blood flowed between his fingers. His face was filled with panic. When he walked to the courtyard, he wanted to call his companion, but when he turned around, he saw that his companion had already fallen to the ground and died with remaining grievances.
Gu Yundong was surprised. She readied the crossbow in her hand.
However, before she could aim, another man walked out of the house.
That person was dressed in tight clothes, and his face was filled with a murderous aura. He held a sword in his hand, and blood was dripping from the tip of the sword.
He immediately saw Gu Yundong standing there. He turned around and saw the man lying on the ground. He understood and nodded at her. "Thank you."
Gu Yundong was speechless. So there was someone in the house? And from the looks of it, he was a very skilled martial artist.
The man had already turned around and looked at the thief who had broken into his courtyard and tried to commit murder.
The latter knelt on the ground in despair. "Please spare me, hero. I was blinded and didn't recognize you. I deserve to die. I'm a bastard. Let me go. I'm really hungry. I have no choice in this world… Ah…"
Before he could finish speaking, the man suddenly raised the sword in his hand and pierced his neck.
That person only let out a short scream before falling to the ground without a sound.
The two men worse than beasts were already dead, but Gu Yundong did not dare to relax. She stood face to face with the man and began to measure and assess the current situation.
At this moment, another figure ran out of the house. It was a small boy that looked to be no more than five or six years old.
"Uncle Gao, Brother Bai is awake. Go in quickly." A soft and tender voice sounded. As soon as the little figure ran out, he hugged the man's thigh and raised his head to speak.
Gao Feng immediately covered his eyes to prevent him from looking at the dead bodies of the two people on the ground. His cold and silent expression instantly changed, and his voice was as gentle as if he had become a different person. "Uncle Gao knows. Go in first and don't let your younger sister come out. Tell your Brother Bai that I still have something to deal with. It'll be done soon."
"Okay." The little boy nodded obediently. Gao Feng turned him around and he ran back.
He did not even look at Gu Yundong standing in the courtyard.
Gu Yundong's expression was as if she had been struck by lightning. She had made a mistake!!
The target of these two scumbags was not her family of four, but the four people in this courtyard who also had two children. That's right, the two of them had mentioned fair and tender children previously. Her own younger brother and sister were skinny to the point of showing noticeable bones and could not be described as fair and tender.
Gu Yundong quickly found his position. She put away the crossbow and said to Gao Feng with a serious expression, "There's no need to thank me. I just happened to hear what they said and knew that these two people were not good people. They were crazy enough to want to eat two little children. Anyone with a conscience would not sit back and do nothing. That's why I followed behind them and thought of helping you as much as I could."
