As soon as Jiao Lizhi shouted, everyone turned—just in time to see a metal needle hurtling toward Chu Zhimiao at a fast speed.
Although she had joined the team and gone out to find supplies, Li Yang had always protected her. As a pampered daughter from a wealthy family, she had zero combat experience.
When she was facing a life and death situation, Chu Zhimiao couldn't move due to fear. Just as she thought death was inevitable, a shadow appeared in front of her.
A split second before the metal needle pierced her body, Jiao Lizhi swung her boning knife.
Clang! Crack!
The needle deflected due to her attack force, slamming into a nearby wall. Dust exploded into the air as cracks spread across the concrete like a spiderweb.
Jiao Lizhi's arm went numb from the collision force, but she had no time to recover. A heavy pressure surged toward her, making her heart beating fast. Without thinking, she spun around and kicked Chu Zhimiao.
Duagh!
