Lu Fengxuan's brows furrowed as she protected her stomach with both hands, standing obediently behind Long Qi.
Just then, a tall and agile figure swiftly dashed out from the woods. By the time she looked over, he was already exchanging blows with Long Qi.
Both were skilled martial artists, their punches landing with force.
Lu Fengxuan stared at the figure with his back to her, a hint of puzzlement in her eyes. Why did his movements resemble military boxing?
She couldn't sense any sinister aura from him; on the contrary, Long Qi's movements seemed more ruthless.
A strange presence approached from behind, and Lu Fengxuan's breath turned sharp as she clenched her right fist.
"Stay still, don't move!"
The man stood behind her, his muscular arms locking around her neck—not tightly, but with a clear warning.
Without any change in her expression, Lu Fengxuan's voice filled with a chill, "What do you want?"
